Chi Cheng didn't rush to order.

He stared at the options for two seconds.

A is too early, B keeps pressing and the protagonist might really explode, D is even less likely, bowing down and admitting fault would be a disaster, how could the protagonist be wrong? Only C is the most suitable.

Give the protagonist a chance to speak.

Although it wasn't much, it was enough to ignite the fire against the Master.

Chi Cheng clicked C.

Su Mo slowly raised his head.

[Su Mo: The students dare not disrupt the examination room, and only request that the teacher personally verify the source of the questions.]

These words only amplified the low chuckles in the examination room.

The proctor slammed his hand on the table: "Insolence!"

[Lu Huai'an shook his head with a smile: Su Mo, do you really think you can see the master's mistakes?]

Su Mo did not argue further, but her fingers tightened slightly as she held the pen.

The proctor said coldly: "Since you keep insisting that the source of the questions is incorrect, then I'll make you give up."

The proctor instructed his page to invite the exam setter, Liu Wujiu.

Chi Cheng raised an eyebrow; this feedback was very satisfying.

[Ding! A key plot point has been triggered!]

The academy gates were suddenly pushed open, and an elderly man in a purple robe, accompanied by his page, strode in with a stern face.

All the candidates stood up and bowed.

[Liu Wujiu: What an arrogant brat! I've been setting exam questions for thirty years, and no one has ever dared to say I'm wrong during the Tianlu Academy's grand exam!]

[Lu Huai'an bowed and said: Mr. Liu, this man is merely a poor scholar who wants to gain fame by taking advantage of the academy's major examination.]

[Liu Wujiu's gaze flashed like lightning: If you can't give a clear answer today, I'll immediately strip you of your scholar's cap and throw you in jail for questioning!]

Chi Cheng sat up a little straighter.

coming.

The true first-level authority has stepped in.

If it was just classmates laughing at us before, that was only a minor incident. Now that the person who set the questions has personally entered the scene, the situation has clearly escalated.

New options emerge.

[A: Immediately have Su Mo recite the original text from the ancient book]

[B: Let Su Mo remain silent]

[C: Guide Liu Wujiu to confirm in public that if the source of the question is incorrect, he is willing to take full responsibility.]

[D: Request to retrieve the historical records of Tianlu Academy]

Chi Cheng glanced at the options and, almost without hesitation, chose C for all of them!

Su Mo looked up at Liu Wujiu.

[Su Mo: Since Mr. Liu says this question is correct, would you dare to speak publicly?]

Liu Wujiu frowned: What are you trying to say?

[Su Mo: If this question is incorrect, are you willing to take responsibility for setting it?]

The entire room of examinees fell silent instantly.

Lu Huai'an's smile deepened: Su Mo, you really won't shed a tear until you see the coffin.

[Liu Wujiu, enraged, laughed: "Fine! If this question is wrong, I will resign from my position as the question setter today!"]

Chi Cheng's eyes lit up.

It became.

The old man has blocked his own escape route.

The examiner's expression changed slightly; he seemed to want to offer some advice, but it was too late.

[Liu Wujiu stood up, flicking his sleeve: Now, you can speak.]

Su Mo held the pen, about to write down the original text of the ancient book.

New options popped up.

[A: Su Mo is allowed to write down the complete evidence immediately]

[B: I can't take it anymore, I'm flipping the table!]

[C: Please have the headmaster of the academy review the case file again.]

[D: Only Su Mo is allowed to write the two characters "Guanlan"]

Chi Cheng glanced at it and immediately clicked D.

What Guanlan is is not important!

But without a doubt, this was the only option he saw for showing off!

The game continued quickly.

Su Mo lowered his head and wrote two words on the draft paper.

Guanlan

[Liu Wujiu's originally cold and hard expression suddenly froze for a moment.]

The proctor noticed his expression and felt a sudden, inexplicable sinking feeling in his heart!

Lu Huai'an scoffed: "Trying to appear profound by writing just two words? These poor students really only know these unorthodox tricks."

The comments section burst into laughter.

[They're here! Old Man Liu is panicking!]

[Lu Huai'an is truly brave; he doesn't care about his teammates' opinions at all.]

[To observe water, one must first observe its ripples?]

Don't reveal your hand! Keep dangling the bait!

This game is so wicked, I love it.

Chi Cheng didn't speak, he just stared at the screen.

Liu Wujiu took a deep breath.

[Liu Wujiu: The banned books from the previous dynasty have long been lost; two words alone cannot prove anything.]

Anger gradually rose in Su Mo's eyes.

[The client raised another request: Let me finish writing!]

Please select a customer service method.

[A: Approval granted to Su Mo to write out complete evidence]

[B: Continue to reject]

[C: Reassure Su Mo and ask him to wait one last time]

[D: Please have the headmaster of the academy make the decision.]

Chi Cheng paused, his fingers pausing.

The main character is about to explode.

If you keep pressing on it, something bad might happen.

But the dean hasn't arrived yet, so the scene definitely isn't big enough.

He clicked D.

[Customer service application approved]

[Academy Headmaster Xie Wenzhou enters]

All candidates in the examination room stood up and bowed.

[Xie Wenzhou: What's disrupting the big exam?]

[The proctor said: Dean, this student is questioning whether Mr. Liu's final question was wrong, and he's even bringing up banned books from the previous dynasty.]

Xie Wenzhou looked at the exam questions, then at the two characters "Guanlan" on the draft paper.

After a moment, Xie Wenzhou slowly spoke.

[Xie Wenzhou: I have personally reviewed this question, and there should be no errors or omissions.]

Chi Cheng sat up straight. Beautiful! Here comes another one! Now the stage is big enough.

Su Mo stared at Xie Wenzhou on the screen, remaining silent for a moment.

[Su Mo: What if the dean is also wrong?]

The audience erupted in uproar.

[Lu Huai'an suddenly stood up: How dare you! You're just a study companion, yet you dare to disrespect the dean!]

[Liu Wujiu frowned slightly: Young man, watch your words.]

New options have appeared again.

[A: Submit the original text of the ancient book "Guanlan"]

[B: Submit rubbings of inscriptions from the previous dynasty]

[C: Submit fragments of annotations by ancient scholars]

[D: Requesting the Hanlin Academy to review the examination papers again]

When Chi Cheng saw D, he couldn't help but laugh.

"This game really knows me! It can even pull me up?"

Without hesitation, Chi Cheng immediately launched a normal attack on D.

"Brothers, what's the point of creating a good show? Since Dean Xie Wenzhou has already stepped in, we have to step on his face and shake over the Grand Secretary of the Imperial Academy in the capital! The bigger the stage, the more fun we'll have!"

Accompanied by Chi Cheng's confident commentary.

The entire edge of the game screen flashed an unsettling blood-red warning light instantly!

"Huh? What's going on?" Chi Cheng's smile froze instantly.

The text box scrolling speed suddenly increased.

The composure on the face of Xie Wenzhou, the headmaster of the academy, vanished instantly, and the air of an elder disappeared from his eyes.

The proctor's face turned ashen.

[The proctor said: I gave you a chance, Mr. Liu gave you a chance, and the dean even personally came to the examination room.]

[A poor student's study companion dared to disrupt the big exam!]

Xie Wenzhou slammed his fist on the table, his anger blazing: "The Hanlin Academy? Do you think it's your backyard? I was only giving you a chance to defend yourself because of your youth and ignorance. You, a mere study companion, have repeatedly spoken arrogantly, not only failing to restrain yourself but also attempting to alarm the central government!"

Xie Wenzhou pointed at Su Mo and shouted, "Arrogant brat, you're utterly insane! This peaceful place, Tianlu Academy, cannot tolerate such an ignorant fool running rampant! Guards!"

Lu Huai'an, who was sitting at the same table, couldn't hold back any longer. He grinned maliciously and rolled up his sleeves: "The dean has spoken, what are you all standing there for? I've been wanting to kill this peasant for a long time, beat him to death! Men! Smash his mouth that's spouting nonsense!"

Chi Cheng was dumbfounded!

No.

I just want to recruit someone to the Hanlin Academy!

Why did you suddenly deviate from the procedure?

Su Mo's expression changed slightly.

He wanted to explain.

But no one at the scene was willing to listen to his explanation.

The text continues to refresh relentlessly:

The fierce guards on both sides pounced on them instantly, and the scions of the surrounding noble families also joined in, swarming around and beating them mercilessly.

[Su Mo, who had a bellyful of brilliant writings but hadn't even had a chance to unleash them, was completely humiliated and beaten to a pulp.]

[A flurry of punches rained down, filling the examination hall with a joyful atmosphere.]

Then, the screen went black.

[Ending achieved]

[You have reached the ending: Hesitant to speak!]

Customer review: Negative

[Subsequent Impact: Three days later, Xie Wenzhou reviewed the old exam papers and found that there were indeed problems with the questions. But so what? Everyone thought there were no problems, so there were no problems.]
