Chapter 658: Chapter 297: 1000 Pine Trees, 2 Boxes of Sutra (Seeking Guaranteed Monthly Ticket)_3

This matter not only troubles them but also the senior officials of the Cabinet.

Among the families, apart from those core disciples of Qixia Temple who have disappeared, quite a few children came to participate in this Imperial Examination, but these family children are not particularly outstanding. Although they originally held the winning ticket, upon arriving in the Western Capital, they indulged in the lively streets and resorts, becoming a carefree stream in brothels.

In these days, they have not really practiced much.

However, these country scholar candidates, in order to make money, became Talisman Masters of the Red Mountain Hall Talisman Master Association, fighting evil spirits daily, honing their skills, and thus their cultivation also improved.

The country scholar candidates instead shone brightly in this Imperial Examination, while few family children stood out.

At night, Chen Shi and Granny Sha were still arduously researching the Eight Trigram’s three types of Ghost God Domains, forgetting to eat or sleep, staying out without returning home.

Chen Tang personally came with a lantern to find them, saying: "Today, there is no urgency to research; tomorrow is the last day of the Imperial Examination, and we must not delay."

Chen Shi had no choice but to return home with Chen Tang.

Even when eating, he still thought about the Ghost God Three Changes, often forgetting to chew while eating. Water and fire would appear around him, drifting in the air, suddenly transforming at times. Occasionally, thunder would burst, and gusts of wind would blow the Chen Mansion as if haunted.

That night, was peacefully spent under the frightened gazes of the maids and servants in Chen Mansion.

On the third day, the third session of the Literary Examination, the exam began.

First question: In the past, the holy kings succeeded one another, unified the great realm and ruled themselves, establishing principles and codes, illuminating rites and music, how come they are not peaceful despite governing through ease? The young and strong completely departed, internally disturbing China, externally defending the wilderness. Is this truly because of their love for killing?

Second question: For an emperor to govern the world, there must be a way. What is the way to govern the world?

...

This time, Chen Shi had no desire to answer questions, choosing the shortest one. After copying down the question, writing his name and origin, he let the clerks answer.

He was immersed in the evolution of the Eight Trigram Ghost God Three Changes, completely lost in himself.

The Young Master and Zhang You frequently glanced at him, seeing Chen Shi’s absent-mindedness, both surprised and relieved in their hearts.

In the afternoon, was the third session of the martial trial, the combat.

If by that time, Chen Shi remained in this state, it was obvious that he wouldn’t be a match for them!

After the third session of the Literary Examination ended, Chen Shi muddleheadedly exited the Ministry of Rites Government Office. Eunuch Feng saw Chen Shi’s state and couldn’t help but frown.

The afternoon’s combat was crucial; Chen Shi in such a state was likely easy to be defeated!

Not far away, the prefectural official of the Fuzheng Pavilion, Shui Xuanzhi, saw this scene from afar, sighed in relief, and laughed: "The Young Master is stable."

At noon, Chen Shi was still somewhat out of state when eating, frequently daydreaming.

By afternoon, the soldiers of the Five Army Camp raised large flags, opened the void, opened the Yin Yang Two Realms, revealing a Great Realm between the Yin Yang Two Realms. Here was the Western Capital’s martial arena, where all past Imperial Examination combats took place.

Rumor has it that this Great Realm that spans the Yin Yang Two Realms was left by a demi-immortal from the True King Era, refined into a Blessed Land, called the Immortal Bridge Blessed Land, symbolizing the bridge that spans the Yin Yang Two Realms. frёeωebɳovel.com

Many scholar candidates were guided by the soldiers of the Five Army Camp, flying into the Immortal Bridge Blessed Land.

Chen Tang and others were observing, and Granny Sha rushed over, loudly saying: "I got it! Little Ten, I’ve comprehended the Water and Fire Transformation! Little Ten, move the sun and moon, gather Qi to smoke. Return and rotate water and fire, all transformations in the body! The key lies in the sun and moon and the return rotation!"

Chen Tang shook his head, saying: "Sister, you are late; he has already entered the Blessed Land. He was among the first batch to be sent in."

Granny Sha was stunned: "Then what do we do?"

In the Immortal Bridge Blessed Land, the Young Master sighed in relief, revealing a smile: "Today, I can finally use the secret arts passed down in my family."
