Traveling the Heavens in Thunderbolt

Chapter 960 College Examination Details
Seeing someone refute him, the candidate looked over and saw that the person who came was elegant and gentlemanly, so he immediately bowed and said, "I wonder what your name is, brother? What advice do you have for me?"

The man returned the greeting and introduced himself: "I am Leng Sheng Bie Yan from the Shen Jian Ancient Academy. I was recommended by Huan Chen Bu Wu and have the honor to be added as an examinee for this academy."

"He was recommended by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I, Sun Lianwu, am honored to meet you." It is no secret in the Ziyao Dynasty that the Soul Burial Emperor is the incarnation of Lord Shaoyang.

When Sun Lianwu heard that Leng Sheng Bie Yan was recommended by Shao Yang Jun, he couldn't help but look at him with admiration, "I wonder if what I said about the three religions being destroyed by the Heavenly Dynasty is wrong?"

"The three old sects conspired to rebel and flouted the laws of the Celestial Empire. They deserved to be destroyed. But Brother Sun's statement that the three religions were destroyed is wrong."

“What’s wrong?”

Leng Sheng Bie Yan looked around. Many examinees heard the noise and came over. He immediately mixed some internal strength in his voice so that people around him could hear him. He introduced to everyone: "The Three Religions in the Central Plains have a long history. They have experienced changes in the times and have many schools. The ones that the Heavenly Dynasty destroyed were the old branches of the Three Religions that did not abide by the law and were outdated. They were not worthy of representing the Three Religions."

"Let's not talk about the distant past, let's talk about the four professors who were recently invited by the Heavenly Dynasty to give lectures in the academy. Among them, Fa Ru Wu Si and Feng Ru Wu Qing are from the De Feng Gu Dao, the central headquarters of the Confucian sage Ming De lineage; Di Xian is the direct descendant of Lao Jun, and he and his senior brother Tian Ji founded the Taoist town and established the Tai Shang Mansion, and he is a Taoist immortal with extraordinary cultivation and sainthood; Chuan Deng Master comes from the highest holy place of Buddhism, the Buddhist Dharma Sect located in the Western Region of the Bitter Realm, and he is the same generation as Jing Liuli Bodhisattva, Fo Jian Fen Shuo and others, and has a high status in Buddhism. The academy admires the ancient Jixia..."

"Brother Sun, please do not say what you just said in front of the professors in the academy."

Sun Lianhai was reminded by Bie Yan and thanked him quickly: "Thank you for the reminder, brother."

Then, he sighed, "When I was studying at the prefectural academy, I heard that there were hundreds of schools of thought, and that one could study a school according to one's own preferences. Today, after listening to your words, I know that what you said is true. If I am lucky enough to enter the academy, I will live up to the cultivation of the court."

Leng Sheng Bie Yan saw that what Sun Lianhai said was from the bottom of his heart and felt that he was a sincere person.

Then, he said to the candidates around him: "Everyone, there is still some time before the college entrance examination. You must prepare well to make up for the hardships along the way."

"Yes, I still have a few test papers for the college entrance examination to review, so I might as well take this opportunity to take a good look at them."

"Brother, let's watch it together."

“I want to see you buy it yourself.”

After everyone at the scene had dispersed, Leng Shengbie Yanzheng was about to move forward and wait for the entrance examination to begin.

A young man rushed out from somewhere and blocked the way of Leng Shengbie Yan. "My dear brother, I am new to Tianjing. I just heard that you know a lot about the academy, so I came here to ask you a few questions."

Leng Sheng Bie Yan looked at the young man, who was only thirteen or fourteen years old, with an extraordinary appearance and polite manner, "No, little brother, you are so young, but you can enter the academy examination. You will definitely become a pillar of the Celestial Empire in the future. I will tell you everything I know."

The young man looked mature, waved his hand and said modestly: "I just learned some of the Qihuang skills passed down in my family, and fortunately cured the epidemic in Jiangnan Road. That's why I was recommended by the Jiangnan Road Supervisor and had the honor to go to Beijing to participate in the college entrance examination."

Leng Sheng Bie Yan praised: "The Jiangnan Dao's examination is notoriously strict, and he has not recommended anyone to enter the academy so far. Little brother can pass his test, so little brother must have something extraordinary. I just don't know what little brother wants to know?"

"I wonder what the academy's exams are about?"

"The examinations in the academy are the same as those in the imperial court, and are divided into six subjects: ritual, music, archery, charioteering, calligraphy, and mathematics."

The young man said in surprise: "Six subjects? It is not easy to master one of the six arts of a gentleman. Even if everyone present is a genius, it is difficult to master all six subjects." "Don't worry, the Heavenly Dynasty and the Academy understand that it is impossible to master all six arts unless you are born with talent. Therefore, the Academy adopts a one-main-two-vice assessment model."

"One chief and two mates?"

Leng Sheng Bie Yan patiently explained: "The so-called one main and two secondary subjects means that before the college entrance examination, candidates choose one subject from the six subjects as the main subject, and then choose two subjects from the other five subjects as secondary subjects. Once the three subjects are selected, they cannot be changed. Candidates only need to prepare for these three subjects. Among the three subjects, the main subject is 300, and the secondary subjects are each 100."

"In that case, the academy's entrance examination is much more flexible than I thought. It is definitely worth a visit." The young man thought secretly.

After that, he continued to ask Leng Sheng Bie Yan: "But what if the director is not one of the six departments?"

Leng Sheng Bie Yan heard this and replied with a smile: "I have said before that there are hundreds of schools of thought in the academy. If you have special skills, such as the art of Qi Huang that you are good at, you can use it to replace the main subject. You only need to choose two secondary subjects from the six subjects."

Besides, the six subjects have evolved over time and have long since evolved beyond their original meanings. For example, the ritual subject is divided into several aspects, such as law and criminal law. Another example is the imperial subject, which is divided into mechanical design and Qimen Dunjia. These are all available for candidates to choose from. "

Leng Shengbie Yan's words made the young man more curious about the academy. "After listening to what you said, I really like the academy more and more."

Leng Sheng Bie Yan sighed: "Yes. The academy is a fascinating place. As long as you can enter, you will always find people who share the same ideals as you."

At this point, Bie Yan asked the young man coldly, "Come to think of it, little brother, I have been talking to you for so long, but I still haven't asked for your name?"

"No, I would like to thank you for clearing up my doubts." The young man told Leng Shengbie Yan his name, "Let me introduce myself. My last name is Leng and my given name is Han Fu. You can just call me Han Fu."

Leng Shengbie Yan blessed: "Brother Han Fu, at your age, you will definitely be able to pass the entrance examination and enter the academy as you wish."

Leng Hanfu bowed to Leng Shengbieyan and said in return: "Thank you for your kind words, Senior."

"Second Dean, Third Dean, we need you to come over for a moment." A man dressed in sword servant's attire came over and called out Leng Sheng Bie Yan.

"Tell my little sister that I'll be there soon." Leng Shengbie Yan said goodbye to Leng Hanfu.

After Leng Shengbie Yan left, Leng Hanfu strolled in the academy square, as if for fun, watching the examinees present preparing for the upcoming
At this moment, under the sunlight, a pair of blood-red eyes appeared in Leng Hanfu's narrow shadow.

The moment those eyes opened, time around them seemed to freeze.

While everyone was unaware, Leng Hanfu smiled at the being in his shadow and said, "Ah Xu, you came up with something again when you saw so many people."

"It's not the right time yet. I'll let you out after the college entrance examination is over."

"Koujie..." A blood-red tongue came out from Leng Hanfu's shadow and licked him a few times.
