This martial artist just wants to be an official

Chapter 459 Appearance in front of others
"Why is Hai Zhuangyuan laughing?"

When Cui Daoling saw the smile on Hai Wuyang's face, he frowned.

He was born into the Cui family of Jiangnan, a powerful and entrenched family in the entire Jiangnan region.

Its reach cannot reach as far as the capital, but it is as powerful as heaven in the south of the Yangtze River.

As the most outstanding son in the family and the disciple with the greatest hope of achieving success in Confucianism, he has possessed a pride that is unmatched by ordinary people since he was young.

In terms of knowledge of scriptures, he felt that he was not much worse than Hai Wuyang in front of him.

Scholars look down on each other. In his eyes, Hai Wuyang was just a little more knowledgeable and entered Qinghe Academy earlier than himself, so he passed the exam and became the top scorer.

In his eyes, the word "top scholar" is not far from him.

So in the final analysis, he did not hold Hai Wuyang in a very high position.

Moreover, Hai Wuyang was able to pass the imperial examination and become the top scholar. To be honest, he didn't think that Hai Wuyang passed the examination based on his own abilities.

His eldest brother is Lu Yuanzhi, the strongest god of war in the entire Dayong, Lu Yuanzhi, the Duke of Beiguo.

And his father held a high position in the court.

Anyone would find it impossible to say that there is no ulterior motive behind his status as the number one scholar.

So in the final analysis, he felt that Hai Wuyang was not qualified to serve as the examiner.

The other person was only a few years older than him.

He looked directly into Hai Wuyang's eyes without fear.

The smile on Hai Wuyang's face had not yet faded. He just looked at him calmly, and then turned his gaze to all the students:

"what about you?"

"Do you also think that I got the top spot in the imperial examination because I have a powerful elder brother and a father who holds a high position, and that I got it by chance?"

Hai Wuyang's voice is not a question, but more like a narration.

The remaining less than 200 students heard what he said and did not refute him. They just looked at him, and no one looked convinced.

But it doesn’t answer the question.

"hehe."

Hai Wuyang smiled softly again. He did not rush to explain anything. He just turned around slowly and walked towards the pavilion.

Inside the pavilion, all the great scholars frowned when they saw Hai Wuyang approaching.

No one could figure out what he was doing.
But after Hai Wuyang arrived at the pavilion, he did not stop. Instead, he looked at the pavilion, his lips moved twice, and then his body slowly rose into the air and landed on top of the pavilion.

Hai Wuyang, standing on the pavilion, looked at everyone present.

His vision became wider, and his body was exposed to the eyes of everyone in the audience?
"What is he going to do??"

"I don't know. Could it be that he jumped off the pavilion because he was questioned by someone?"

"How is that possible? The height of this pavilion shouldn't be enough to kill someone."

"What if the head lands first?"

"........."

Lu Yuanzhi listened to the argument and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

With Hai Wuyang's personality, it is impossible for him to commit suicide just because of a few words from others.

"What is he going to do?" Li Jin looked at Lu Yuanzhi cautiously.

Lu Yuanzhi glanced at him, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly: "Just wait and see, someone is about to start showing off."

"what?"

Li Jin was stunned.

Obviously, he didn't hear clearly what Lu Yuanzhi meant.

"hehe."

Lu Yuanzhi just smiled softly and cast his gaze on Hai Wuyang in the pavilion.

At this time, Hai Wuyang stood on the pavilion, looking at the conference hall with no less than 10,000 people, and slowly spoke:
"I am Hai Wu Yan."

The sound spread throughout the entire venue with a ripple.

After all, he was at the fourth level of Confucianism and Taoism. Hai Wuyang's voice was extremely expansive, just like what their dean Bai Hezhi had just said. Everyone could hear it clearly, as if it was spoken in their ears.

Only a few great scholars in the pavilion noticed this detail.

"This is……"

An old man suddenly widened his eyes.

"How is it possible??? Isn't he in the Gentleman Realm?!"

Xu Shanshou was completely stunned.

Hai Wuyang initially followed him to learn Confucianism and Taoism.

He naturally knew about Hai Wuyang's talent in Confucianism and Taoism. He looked at the dean Bai Hezhi in disbelief.

Bai Hezhi's expression at this moment was a little complicated. He knew best that Hai Wuyang had only been in the Gentleman Realm for about half a year, but the ability displayed by Hai Wuyang in front of him was not something that could be achieved by just being in the Gentleman Realm!
He remained silent, waiting for Hai Wuyang to continue speaking.

In the pavilion.

Hai Wuyang's voice continued:

"Wuyang is naughty and not very good at studying."

"I was valued by my teacher, taught carefully, and was taught by him. I was lucky enough to be recognized as the top scholar by the late emperor in the Jiazi year."

It was just two short sentences, and no one else could understand anything.

Lu Yuanzhi, who was sitting on the high platform, already had a half-smile on his face.

There is a strong sense of pretense in his words...to be honest, they are exactly like me.

"Maybe this is an honor for everyone. But for me, it is like a heavy burden. I dare not slack off every day. After all, I am only 20 years old."

Tsk.

Let me tell you! Isn't the previous foreshadowing just for this sentence?
Lu Yuanzhi raised his eyebrows and glanced at Hai Wuyang playfully.

However, discussions were already being heard from the audience.

It was nothing more than to marvel once again at the fact that he passed the imperial examination and became the top scorer at the age of only twenty.

When Hai Wuyang heard this voice, the corners of his mouth curled up uncontrollably, and he continued:
"Today, I have been ordered by my teacher to serve as an examiner for the most outstanding students in Dayong."

At this point, his eyes turned to the candidates standing in front of the pavilion and looking up at him:

"However, Wuyang is still young after all. Although he has been ordered by his teacher to study Confucianism and Taoism all day long and is obsessed with studying, he has forgotten that if he wants to be respected, he also needs to show his strength in front of others occasionally."

After hearing what he said, most of the people in the field looked confused.

Don’t we all know your strength?
What?? What else have you not told everyone??
Liu Fengnian, who was sitting in the crowd, was also confused at this time. He looked at Hai Wuyang in the pavilion with a confused face, winking at him frantically, and roaring in his heart.

Come down quickly! ! I'm fine, what are you doing? !
The teachers are all watching in the pavilion!
Don't I know what your strength is?

Liu Fengnian was about to fly up to the pavilion and pick Hai Wuyang up.

Hai Wuyang's eyes remained calm and he said slowly:

"Otherwise, anyone would doubt whether I got the title of No. 1 by my own ability."

As he said this, Hai Wuyang's eyes searched.

After seeing Lu Yuanzhi's half-smile, his expression froze slightly, but he quickly hid it and looked at the students standing in the audience as if nothing had happened.

When these words came out, the students' faces looked a little ugly.

Cui Daoling narrowed his eyes and looked at Hai Wuyang in the pavilion, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Could it be that Hai Wuyang has something else to rely on?

While thinking, he saw Hai Wuyang just opened his mouth slightly, and an extremely eye-catching light emitted in the broad daylight!

The light is so bright that people dare not look directly at it!

The next moment, a "Record of All Nations" slowly grew from his body into the air.

"Wow~"

The sound of the Record of Nations being opened reached everyone's ears.

Its mighty light made everyone feel a tremendous power.

"What's this??"

Some people don't understand Confucianism at all, so when they see this scene, they just think it's gorgeous and don't have any understanding of it.

"How would I know where to go?"

“What can this big book represent??”

"Why doesn't Hai Wuyang explain?" "..."

"That's right, you're not just teasing us, are you?"

Many suspicious eyes were cast at Hai Wuyang in the pavilion.

However, Hai Wuyang had a smile on his face.

He knew he didn't need to explain.

Once I have demonstrated my accomplishments, great scholars will debate with me.

As expected, all the old men in the pavilion stood up suddenly.

They looked at each other in disbelief:
“He really did it???”

"My Qinghe Academy has produced another great scholar??!"

"This……"

"Oh my god!! How old is he??!"

"........."

Several great scholars could no longer sit still, and several white lights flashed.

The figures of great scholars all appeared in front of Hai Wuyang.

"Quchen?? When did you break through??!"

Xu Shanshou's face was flushed, his teeth were chattering, and he looked at Hai Wuyang with shock on his face.

Even the dean Bai Hezhi appeared on the pavilion with a look of astonishment on his face. Looking at Hai standing in the wind unharmed, he was speechless.

He had personally witnessed Hai Wuyang’s breakthrough from the sixth rank to the fifth rank more than a year ago.

How long has it been??!

"Great Confucian Realm!!!"

The next moment, some people in the crowd reacted and looked at Hai Wuyang in the pavilion with wide eyes!

"What is the realm of great scholar?"

Someone quickly asked him.

"Martial arts practitioners have different levels of cultivation, and Confucianism naturally has different levels. The great Confucian realm...hiss~" The man took a breath, looked at everyone solemnly, and said only a few words:
"He is on par with the other scholars in the pavilion."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.

After a long time, there was an uproar:
“Is this… true or false?”

"Why would I lie to you?! Moreover, it is even more difficult to reach the level of a great scholar in Confucianism. One needs to make a breakthrough in the state of mind before advancing. How many old scholars have never reached this level in their entire lives?!"

“It’s so mysterious!!”

"what happened?"

"I mean, everyone in the Hai family is mysterious! How old is Hai Wuyang this year, but he is already the same as the great scholars. If he reaches the same age as the great scholars, then wouldn't it be..."

The words were not finished.

But everyone understood the meaning of his words!
……

In the pavilion, Hai Wuyang saw Xu Shanshou's expression and Bai Hezhi, then he bowed to these great scholars and said with a smile:

"Following my eldest brother on the expedition is not without gain."

"Great!! Haha! Well done!! The fact that my Qinghe Academy has produced a Hai Wuyang is enough for others to admire in the entire history!!"

"Hahahaha! Okay!!"

After a long time, the great scholars looked at each other and laughed with their heads raised.

See this scene.

No one dared to have any doubt that the sea was safe.

Didn’t you see the hearty laughter of those great scholars? ?

"Do you have any objections?"

Hai Wuyang's gaze was fixed on the one hundred or so students in front of the pavilion.

"How dare they raise objections? Anyone who raises objections is considered blind and unworthy of studying at Qinghe Academy!"

Xu Shanshou glared and spoke in a voice that was unquestionable.

This is true. You came to Qinghe Academy to study Confucianism.

If you can't even tell the difference between a great scholar and a great scholar, then what are you doing here?

The remaining one hundred or so students all stared blankly at Hai Wuyang on the pavilion.

It’s like looking at a god.

They came to Qinghe Academy to study Confucianism and Taoism.

Nature had done her homework before coming here, and knew what a person needed to go through to become a great scholar.

The ironclad facts were right before their eyes, leaving them no room for doubt.

“The students are convinced.”

Cui Daoling bowed deeply to Hai Wuyang's body:
"Those who can become great scholars have all gone through hundreds of hardships. I admire them."

"hehe."

Seeing Cui Daoling's convinced expression, Hai Wuyang smiled and said slowly:

"You must work hard and follow my path, and you may become a great scholar!"

The warmth of the voice makes people feel more favorable towards it.

"Students take note."

Cui Daoling was really convinced.

How many great scholars have there been throughout history?

"Please ask the teacher for some questions."

More than a hundred students looked at each other and then saluted Hai Wuyang in unison.

The voices were uniform and could be heard by everyone in the audience.

"hehe."

Hai Wuyang nodded slowly, bowed to the great scholars in Baihezhi, and said:
"Please wait for a moment, Master. I will be the examiner first."

"Well, let's go."

Xu Shanshou looked at Hai Wuyang with the most gentle eyes possible, he only hated that Hai Wuyang was not his son.

Hai Wuyang was about to jump off the pavilion when he heard a solemn voice.

"Wait a moment." Bai Hezhi looked towards the sea and saw that it was unharmed.

Hai Wuyang was stunned, stopped, and asked in confusion: "What's wrong, teacher?"

Bai Hezhi looked at him seriously and asked:
"Since you have become a great scholar, you must have passed the test of self-examination. What is your understanding of self-examination?"

As soon as these words were spoken, all the great scholars became curious.

Looking at Hai Wuyang who was standing against the wind, he asked:

"Yes, it is extremely important to examine your heart. This may even be related to your future path of Confucianism and Taoism. Would you mind telling me about it?"

Xu Shanshou looked at Hai Wuyang, his eyes full of curiosity.

“It’s naturally convenient.”

Hai Wuyang chuckled softly, and looked at Lu Yuanzhi who was sitting at the table, and explained briefly:
"The reason why the student gained enlightenment and made a breakthrough that day was actually because of the teachings of his elder brother. The words of his heart are not important, but the advice from his elder brother is what is important."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, the great scholars became even more curious. They looked at each other, then looked at Hai Wuyang and asked:
"What kind of advice can be so effective?"

The pavilion was not far from the students in front of it, so they could also hear a few words.

When they heard this, the students all turned their eyes to Hai Wuyang.

All of them looked curious.

"hehe."

Hai Wuyang chuckled, then turned around and faced the scholars with his back.

Looking at the audience sitting in the seats and the students in front of the pavilion, the voice slowly sounded:
"Establish a mind for the world, establish a destiny for the people, inherit the lost knowledge of the past sages, and bring peace to the world for all eternity!!!"
