Honghuang: The comprehension is against the sky, and the beginning destroys Buzhou

Chapter 304: Double Judgment, Human Race Talent Selection, Wisdom Mansion, Maids Welcome
After all, Emperor Xiao had too little experience, so his knowledge was inevitably a little insufficient. Although he knew that there were imperial examinations and military examinations in the Tang Dynasty, he only knew that both were held once every hundred years.

But how come there is a major imperial and military examination that is held once every thousand years?

Xue Rengui also knew that Di Xiao was not knowledgeable enough at the moment, so he patiently explained: "Di Xiao, the imperial examination and the martial arts examination are both for selecting talents for the Tang Dynasty. But our Tang Dynasty is vast, with countless people, and there are countless people with talents. But you also know that because of the problem of reproduction, our human race is full of impurities, and our cultivation is inevitably restricted."

"As a result, many talented people were buried because of impurities in their bodies. However, it is not realistic to directly pass on the method to the entire human race and let all humans practice the method of cutting off pollution or the method of literature. After all, although our "530" human race is also a major force in the prehistoric world, it is difficult to come up with the resources to cultivate the entire human race."

"Secondly, considering the current number of humans and their reproduction speed, if everyone practices cultivation, it will be a test for the spiritual energy and the resources of the entire prehistoric world. How can the major forces bear to watch the human race consume prehistoric resources like this? That's why there are hidden rules that prohibit the entire human race from practicing cultivation."

"But the human race cannot cultivate as a whole, and they don't want to see some talented people buried. That's why the imperial examination and the martial arts examination were created. The purpose is to find those talented people from the entire human race."

"The imperial examination tests one's literary talent. The literary classics that do not involve cultivation are spread throughout the human race, and the human race is asked to recite the literary classics so that they can comprehend the true meaning of literature and Taoism. Then, through the imperial examination, the human race with the highest level of understanding of literature and Taoism is selected. Then, they are allowed to join the Imperial Academy for training and taught the part of literature and Taoism that involves cultivation."

"The same goes for the martial arts exam. They teach military classics that do not involve cultivation, as well as some basic boxing and kicking techniques. Then, through competitions and numerous tests, they select the best of them, and then teach the parts involving cultivation."

"After all, those who can cultivate something famous from the classics and fist and kick methods that do not involve cultivation must be the outstanding ones of the Celestial Race. And these people are also worthy of our human race and our Great Tang to spend resources to cultivate them and let them embark on the road of cultivation."

"And this kind of imperial examination and martial arts examination that does not involve cultivation and practice is held once every hundred years, and is referred to as the small imperial examination and small martial arts examination."

Xue Rengui described patiently, casually took the tea handed to him by the maid, and then looked at Di Xiao with a smile, as if he was teaching his own nephew.

Emperor Xiao suddenly realized something and became interested in the imperial and martial arts examinations in Journey to the West. It seemed that the human race had such a system for selecting talents.

That's right, there are only so many resources in the prehistoric world, and the major forces have already divided them up. The human race is the largest among the major forces. If the whole race were to practice cultivation, the amount of spiritual energy consumed by all human beings in one day of cultivation would be terrifying.

What's more, as the cultivation level increases, the consumption of spiritual energy and resources will increase. In this way, the resources of the major forces will be reduced, so how could they be willing?

Therefore, it was inevitable that the human race did not allow the entire clan to practice, and that the Tang Dynasty did not widely spread the "Cut Out the Pollution" technique.

However, relying on these classics and martial arts techniques that do not involve cultivation methods, selecting those with good talents from them, and then letting them embark on the path of cultivation is indeed a good choice.

Di Xiao consumed all of this in his heart, took a sip of tea, and said with a smile: "So, the imperial examination and martial arts examination held once every thousand years involve cultivation?"

"Haha... That's right. The imperial examination and military examination held once every thousand years are the real tests. And only the best among them will be granted official positions or sent to various places." Xue Rengui mentioned this and became very interested. "After all, this is a prehistoric world where cultivation and strength are the core. It is really difficult to become an official or join the army without cultivation."

"If the imperial examinations and martial arts examinations held once every 100 years are merely for selecting talents for cultivation, then the martial arts examinations and imperial examinations held once every 1,000 years are the real tests. Only those scholars and warriors who have been trained and practiced can pass this test and obtain the corresponding official positions, and then be favored by the Tang Dynasty."

Well, Di Xiao was really interested in the two kinds of imperial examinations and martial arts examinations in the Tang Dynasty. Especially for these kinds of examinations that took thousands of years to train, they still had some weight.

Di Xiao also became curious: "General, do you want me to participate in the martial arts examination that takes place once every thousand years?"

"Yes, these warriors who have practiced for a thousand years are also one of the sources of the various lieutenants and middle-level officers in our army." Xue Rengui said this and couldn't help but praise such a system. He turned and said: "Di Xiao, although you didn't get promoted through the martial arts examination. But as a major general of the White Tiger Army, you have practiced for a thousand years, so you are naturally qualified to participate in the martial arts examination."

"When the time comes, you can go and participate, and find some opponents to practice with. Secondly, there are many rewards involved in the martial arts examination."

Di Xiao nodded, and was very interested in this martial arts competition: "If that's the case, then I will naturally participate."

"Okay, I won't say any more. You just stay in Chang'an City from now on, and remember not to leave Chang'an City." Xue Rengui warned again.

"General, don't worry, I know what to do. It just so happens that I also want to take a look at my Duke's mansion." After Di Xiao finished speaking, he also prepared to get up and say goodbye.

Although Xue Rengui's mansion is also a duke's mansion, it is filled with rich spiritual energy, like a small world, and is worthy of being a congenital blessed land.

But Di Xiao still showed great interest in his blessed land.

Then, Di Xiao said goodbye to Xue Rengui, and stepped into the teleportation array to his own mansion.

Holding his token of Marquis of Wisdom, Di Xiao stepped into the teleportation array. In a moment, he arrived in front of a mansion.

It is called a mansion, but it is just a small world. And such a large world is built into a mansion. Emperor Xiao now looks at the towering gate in front of him and the many stone lions outside the gate, and he knows very well that this is a special formation.

Di Xiao took the token, controlled the formation, and opened the door of the mansion.

Then Di Xiao was slightly stunned, then dumbfounded: "Who are you?"

"Welcome back to the mansion, Lord Marquis!" A group of maids bowed sideways.

There was a moment of dullness in Di Xiao's deep eyes.

"What's going on?" Di Xiao was greatly puzzled. He just came to see the Duke's Mansion that Li Shimin had given him. But why were there so many maids in front of him?
