My queen is awesome

Chapter 71 Examination of the Imperial Academy
The frontier of Xishu is located near the Taihang Mountains.Surrounded by mountains and shaded by trees.At the end of March, the remote official road suddenly became lively.In the small tea shop next to the official road, the dilapidated benches were wiped clean, and there were simple tea bowls and steamed buns.A weird girl with half of her hair covering her cheeks was sitting at one of the tables, eating steamed buns slowly.

"Old man, bring a pot of tea here."

A boy of seventeen or eighteen walked into the tea shop and sat at the next table.

"Okay." The old man in his seventies tremblingly brought him a pot of tea and put it on the table.Smiling, he looked at the young man: "Is the young master also participating in the selection of the Emperor's Academy this year?"

"Hahaha, don't call me son, do you think I look like a son?" The young man laughed heartily. He was dressed in simple clothes. Just fine."

The boy is not very old, but with thick eyebrows and big eyes, he looks very heroic.

"Hehe." The old man at the tea shop brought out a plate of steamed buns, put them in front of the young man, and said cheerfully, "In that case, then Li Li can call me Long Bo. Eat some of these steamed buns to fill your belly. You don’t need to eat it when the Emperor’s Academy assesses it later.”

"Ah, Uncle Long knows about the Emperor Academy's examination? Tell me quickly."

"Forehead……"

The plate in the old man's hand shook, and the steamed bun almost fell to the ground.

Ximen Moli also realized that he was a little impatient. He embarrassedly let go of Long Bo's sleeve and touched the back of his head: "I'm sorry, Long Bo. I heard that the emperor's academy assessment came here from the village, but No one in the village knows the rules of the Emperor's Courtyard. I was afraid that I would make a joke when I went up, so I was a little anxious just now."

Long Bo patted him on the shoulder and motioned him to sit down.Then he said kindly: "Actually, I don't know the rules of the Emperor's Courtyard very well. But every year, many people stop at my small tea shop and hear a lot of gossip. To enter the Emperor's Courtyard, it seems that you have to pass the Three passes."

"Three tests?" Ximen Moli was puzzled: "Isn't the assessment only testing spiritual power?"

The girl next door seemed to move a bit, shaking the teacup with her fair white hands, as if she was paying attention to the conversation here.

"How can it be? Hundreds of people come to the Emperor's Courtyard every year. If they all go in, the Emperor's Courtyard probably doesn't even have a place to stand. Think about it, one thousand a year, ten thousand in ten years. The Emperor's Courtyard It has been established for hundreds of years, how many people should it be now?" Uncle Long poured himself a cup of tea and drank it down: "So, the Emperor Academy must be assessed. Strictly select those who can learn the highest martial arts. Set up three levels , that is, when new disciples are introduced, those who are not suitable for cultivation are eliminated."

Ximen Moli seemed to understand, but hesitated for a while: "Isn't it difficult to get in?"

"Not really, it depends on one's fate." Long Bo continued: "A powerful person may not be able to pass the three tests. After all, the Emperor's Academy test is not only about martial strength, but also character and wit."

"Huh? How do you test this?"

Nangong Moli was completely dumbfounded.

He didn't know that there were so many things to pay attention to in the assessment of the Emperor's Academy. He thought that the assessment was to test spiritual power to see if he had potential.Those who have the potential will enter the Imperial Academy to study, and those who have no potential will be sent back directly.

"I don't know, the exam questions are different every year. Anyway, you should be careful when the time comes. There are so many people who take the test every year, but those who can make it down the mountain alive are not necessarily so many people." Long Boy thought somewhat refer to.
