Be a small county magistrate in ancient times

Chapter 516: Just Asking for Trouble

Luo Sanmu was among these nine people. Jiang Chan watched the whole process from the side and was both worried and happy for him.

After the two levels were passed, and seeing that there were less than ten people, someone in the crowd asked, "Is it necessary to pass the third level?"

"Yes!" Bafang said, "They must pass the military examination before they can be employed. I don't care how many people are left at the end. Even if there is not a single person who meets the requirements, I will not lower the requirements."

When Zheng Xidong heard this, his heart skipped a beat. He thought, since the military exam was like this, would the literary exam be the same?
Maybe no one passed the exam yesterday, otherwise why didn’t I hear about anyone being hired?

She was disappointed and kept thinking in her mind, what can she do after leaving the school?
Learn embroidery from Mrs. Liang? Unfortunately, she didn't like embroidery from the bottom of her heart. However, as a homeless person, she had to survive. She had no right to care about whether she liked it or not. What mattered was to have a foundation for herself.

When she came back to her senses, the third level had already begun.

She didn't understand the situation in front of her, so she asked Luo Yun beside her, "What is this third level about? Why is that person circling around Master Xi?"

Luo Yun was surprised and said, "I didn't know you had the ability to sleep with your eyes open." She smiled and explained, "The third level is a one-on-one duel with Master Xi. Shitou really got it right. He really knows how to watch people fight."

After saying this, Luo Yun couldn't help but worry about his father. "I happened to see Master Xi beating Master Ba. He was really merciless. I hope he will be gentler on my father."

Just as these words fell, there was a bang, and the man who was confronting Xi Bei was thrown to the ground. He took a long time to get up. Xi Bei asked him, "Are you coming again?"

The man shook his head, knowing that he could not win, so he sighed and retreated.

"Next!"

Two people in a row failed to pass, and the people behind them became more and more discouraged.

Until Yang San came on the field, although he was knocked to the ground by Xi Bei in two moves, he still refused to give up. After a few moves back and forth, Xi Bei suddenly said, "You pass."

Others were puzzled, "He didn't beat you either, so how did he pass?"

Xi Bei said frankly, "He knows how to adapt, and he improves each time, so he can pass the test." After hearing him say this, the people behind him were unwilling to give up easily.

But the next person, even though he did not give up and continued to get up every time like Yang San fell, he still could not hear a word of "pass" from Xi Bei.

Someone else asked why.

"Although your reluctance to give up is your strength, you always just rush towards me stupidly without changing at all. You should use your brain even in a fight."

The more Xi Bei talked, the more effort she had to put in. The people behind her would learn from the experience of the former. Fortunately, there were only nine people in total.

In the end, five people passed through his hands.

Bafang first thanked Xi Bei for her hard work, and then said to everyone in a loud voice, "Everyone who took the martial arts exam, whether you passed or not, you worked hard for a day, and in the end only these five passed.

The county government doesn't have enough people, but as we said before, we won't lower the requirements for recruitment, so we decided to continue recruiting in the second half of the year. I hope everyone will strengthen their own training and come back to take the martial arts exam when the time comes."

When everyone heard this, those who were originally in a low mood due to the lack of communication suddenly felt better, thinking that there was still a chance in the second half of the year!

"Will it still be the same three levels in the second half of the year?" someone asked.

After a brief pause, Bafang said, "Not necessarily."

"Okay, everyone, please go away." Bafang asked the five people to go aside and register.

There was ready-made red paper, already unfolded and waiting on the table.

As a person who passed the three levels, when Luo Sanmu went to register his name, he noticed at a glance that his daughter's name was also on the red paper.

"Master Cheng, are the people who passed the military and literary exams shown on this paper?" Luo Sanmu guessed nine points, but he still had to suppress his excitement and confirm the last point.
