There is no grand ceremony, no grand celebration. This groundbreaking ceremony of the Yao clan, unprecedented in ancient times, is used to announce three things.

The first is to establish a kingdom. From now on, all the territory of the Demon Realm is the national territory, and all demon clans are the subjects of the Demon Kingdom. This area was designated as the capital, and thirteen regions were divided under it.

The second is to establish institutions. Under the Demon Emperor, there are nine divisions and thirteen domain lords, supported by a number of other departments, forming the core of the country's management and decision-making.

The third is to issue decrees. The "Laws of Heaven", which were discussed and drafted by the beast kings, and then reviewed, revised, and approved by the demon emperor, became the first law of the demon kingdom.

The ceremony ended in silence.

Most of the monsters are at a loss. They are weak in cultivation and cannot understand the words, let alone what the country is and what the law is.

But they can faintly feel that something deep, wide and spacious has quietly changed.

"I thought I saw a baby born."

Ji Jie Bi said with a slight sigh.

Ji Sha Jian: "Are those beast kings willing to have multiple bosses? Why don't they unite to rebel?"

Ji Jie Bi: "Do you think they are stupid? If the demon clan is in chaos now, the human clan will definitely take action. No one of them can please them, so even if they have second thoughts, they have to wait until later."

Jiyanzhu: "What will happen in the future? When will so much research in Tianyuan come to fruition? I'm really looking forward to it."

Jing Yingrong put away the light curtain and looked at the elder who was giving a lecture on the high platform.

She watched the ceremony and listened to the lecture at the same time, without delaying either side.

Day and night rotated, and soon the day of the first assessment came.

During this period, the results of the literary test for selecting direct disciples came out. Jing Yingrong learned from the chats of others that one in two people passed the test, and the passing rate for single subjects was twice as high as that of previous years.

This is due to the looser evaluation standards this year, and also because the overall level of candidates this year is better than the previous ones.

Perhaps it is because the disciples who participated in the selection this time have experienced the war between the two clans and are elites tempered from the brutal battles. Therefore, although the number is small, the quality is higher.

The time for the martial arts test was announced to the public, and it happened to be the day after the assessment ended.

This time the assessment is in the form of written answers, and the location is the same venue as the original literary test, with the same hexagonal grid and the same elders patrolling.

Everyone is strictly inspected before entering the examination room, and it is strictly forbidden to bring in any artifacts unrelated to the examination, including storage instruments.

Jing Yingrong placed the three Taoist artifacts and the storage ring on Xingyou Island in advance. Like the others, he replaced his clothes and jewelry with ordinary objects and walked into the examination room dressed in plain clothes.

Use your identity token to enter one of the hexagonal grids. Exam papers, pen, ink, paper and inkstones are already placed on the table.

Three bells ring and the assessment begins.

……

Shixin Pavilion.

After Yu Xian read the jade slips given to her by True Lord Hong Bo, she nodded and said, "Let's do this first."

True Lord Hongbo: “Don’t you want to give me some advice?”

Yu Xian spread his hands and said, "I know nothing about this. Giving blind advice is not like a layman guiding an expert."

"I can't claim to be an expert. Everyone is still figuring it out and they are all novices."

"that's humble."

Yu Xian joked, and then said seriously: "Let them go and do it boldly, and let them not be too stressed. Things can't be accomplished overnight. This is also the intention of the leader."

Zhenjun Hongbo nodded and said: "There is one thing that I am more concerned about. The audience we consider when compiling teaching materials is the common people under our rule. In recent hundreds of years, our sect has built schools to encourage education, so that the common people can learn and understand. You can learn Chinese characters directly from the textbooks. But after the war, our sect absorbed new territories and also accepted people who originally belonged to other forces. Their knowledge levels vary, and many of them can’t even write their own names. So we Should the time to implement this matter be put after educating these people?”

Yu Xian: "No need. When the time comes, it will be piloted in the ancestral city first, and then fully rolled out. During the pilot, the department will start to deal with the problem you mentioned. Aren't the new batch of direct descendants about to be selected? It's just right. superior."

True Lord Hongbo laughed when he heard this.

"It seems that their mortal trial will not be easy."...

Before the exam was over, Jing Yingrong had finished answering the test paper. Since she couldn't leave early, she continued to stay in her cell.

San Ling was not there and there was no one to chat with. She was in a daze for a while, took the scratch paper and wrote and drew on it.

After a long time, the bell rang again, signaling the end of the assessment.

She put away the draft paper in front of an invigilator. The elder glanced at what was on the paper, twitched the corners of his mouth, and said nothing.

After leaving the examination room, I received a spiritual message from Tu Wei.

Tu Wei said that something she had commissioned had recently been revealed, so she had time to go to the Qi Pavilion.

Jing Yingrong first went back to Xingyou Island to pick up the three spirits and get the ring. Jijiebi asked her a few questions about her exam status. After she answered, she took out the scratch paper from her sleeve.

"I drew us," she said.

The three spirits gathered in front of the paper and watched.

I saw a "person" drawn in the middle. The round circle is the head, and the long vertical part below is the body. Two short sticks, one on the left and one on the right, protrude from the upper part of the vertical part, and two long sticks branch out from the lower part.

Diagonally below the left side of the person is a stick painted black with a thick top and a sharp bottom. The top of the stick looks like a hat. If you guessed it correctly, this should be a sword;

There is a small circle diagonally below the sword. There are several curved lines in the circle, probably to show the gloss;

There are also pens whose heads and tails are hard to distinguish, hairpins with long handles that look like leaves, and clothes that I can’t tell what they are but maybe they are clothes.

Everyone held out two short sticks and formed a circle holding hands.

The scene was quiet for what seemed like a thousand years.

Ji Jie Bi slowly said: "The mirror is full of thoughts, we... poof."

He couldn't stop laughing, and Ji Sha Sword and Ji Yan Zhu also laughed together.

Seeing the reflection in the mirror and lowering his eyes, Ji Yanzhu quickly said: "Cute! Very cute hahahaha! Let's hang it up!"

Ji Sha Jian was still laughing: "Hahahaha no, no one can recognize you with your drawings, I'm serious hahahahaha——"

Ji Jie Bi smiled and said: "It is better to add your true body to increase the recognition."

Jing Yingrong followed her instructions and drew a circle on the head of the little man who represented herself - it was a little flat because of her drawing.

"You are like wearing a glowing ring, hahahahaha!" Ji Shajian laughed even more crazily.

"..."

Finally, this piece of scratch paper was pasted on the wall on the top floor of Tianwai Building.

……

Device Pavilion.

When Tu Wei saw Jing Yingrong, he immediately placed a white square as big as a room.

"Come on, try it and put your spiritual consciousness in."

Jing Yingrong used a ray of consciousness to penetrate into the square, feeling as if he had entered a void space.

The space was obviously extremely vast, but she naturally encountered another spiritual consciousness.

The divine consciousness also sensed her presence and sent a message. Information is transformed into words and symbols in space and is "seen" by her.

"Eh? What's going on? Who are you, fellow Taoist?"
