557 High-level Scholar
“They reacted very quickly. It should be because we’ve been attacking frequently during this period of time that they’ve been alerted. They should rest for a while.” The Celestial Cultivator looked at everyone and said.
“Yes.” Everyone handed over 20% of their faith according to the rules and then left.
After arriving overseas, He Chuan looked around, then dove into the water and disappeared instantly.
“This kid runs quite fast.” A black-robed man walked out of the void.
All of this was within his expectations. He Chuan had already left far away.
Infighting was a glorious tradition of the Myriad Immortals Islands. There would always be people who died for no reason.
He Chuan did not want to cause trouble, so he simply left.
If he wanted to retaliate, these two guys would probably have turned into ashes.
He still had important things to do now, so there was no need to cause trouble.
Lin Mansion, Laiwu County.
In the quiet courtyard, the scholar closed his door and studied hard.
A white light flashed on the scholar’s body, and he instantly turned into a strand of hair. He Chuan’s figure appeared on the spot.
Lin Fu stood behind him.
“Already recovered?” He Chuan glanced at him and asked.
“Thanks to Master, I’ve already stabilized my position in the Dark Green Position.” Lin Fu smiled bitterly.
With his paradise shattered and his status dropped, he no longer had the cultivation of a God Realm and only had the strength of a peak Immortal Venerable.
If he wanted to return to his original position, he had to make great contributions again.
In the current situation, there was no chance to make a contribution unless he went out to sea and killed those bandits.
“The Myriad Immortals Archipelago has been making big moves recently. Laiwu County is close to the sea, so we might be attacked by them.” Lin Fu advised tactfully.
“I understand.” He Chuan did not care. The other party did not know he was from the Myriad Immortals Archipelago.
There were still two more months until the fall. At that time, it would be the autumn boudoir. If one passed the imperial examination, they could establish their own power.
“When I pass the middle school examination, leave me a sixth-rank magistrate position.” He Chuan urged.
“No problem!” Lin Fu was a founding hero. Although he had declined, he had a lot of connections.
He Chuan wanted to move part of the forces of the Beiyin Mountain here so they could attack this place in the future.
Not to mention occupying all of them, at least they had a foothold. The resources of the two worlds were enough to expand the power of the Reincarnation Palace.
“The people of Wu Kingdom can live here.” The Yellow Springs orthodoxy was too conspicuous and easy to discover.
The people of the Wu Kingdom were different. Martial arts were easily accepted by this world. As for how to explain to others the reason why it appeared out of thin air, it was simple. Just say that he had conquered the stars.
Although the Great Yan Empire was an imperial country, it was not closed off. On the contrary, it encouraged its subjects to actively develop. Almost all the top aristocratic families had stars and strange cultivators were everywhere.
Time flew by.
The Myriad Immortals Archipelago was caught off guard last time, and they had become more peaceful recently.
If it wasn’t for the looting mission, the Celestial Cultivator wouldn’t have issued any orders to not interfere in the battle between allies.
For three months, He Chuan was in seclusion.
In the quiet room.
He sat cross-legged with hundreds of blood-red beads floating around him. As he breathed, the beads became smaller and smaller, turning into essence energy and entering his body.
The plundered faith could not be absorbed through the level, but there would be flaws. Faith was the collective faith of all living beings.
The original white bead was purer, and cultivators wouldn’t be affected after absorbing it. However, the blood-red bead contained the evil aura of all living beings, and it was very easy to be affected. The more one absorbed, the more it would accumulate. One day, it would explode.
Perhaps the cultivators of the Myriad Immortals Islands with strange tempers were not due to their personalities, but because of the influence of the faith they had absorbed.
Tomorrow was the Fall Quarter Examinations.
“Xu Tianyi can come over first.” He Chuan thought to himself.
They had returned too late, and the important positions had been occupied by Yaoyue and the others. The Immortal Flames and Little Dragon Girl were inside the Beiyin Mountain.
Qiug Gan and Qie Lan had decent abilities. It would be a waste to let them idle.
He Chuan rushed to the examination hall and carried his luggage.
Most of the Lin family members came out to send him off. They believed that Lin Fu would really be able to win.
He Chuan was really too hardworking. He didn’t go out for two or three months, he almost become a demon.
They didn’t know that He Chuan was cultivating. It wouldn’t be a problem if he didn’t go out for twenty years, let alone two months.
When they arrived near the examination hall, most of the people there were scholars rushing to take the examination.
The scholars who came here were all Elementary-level Scholars. Some of them already had extraordinary cultivation, and their eyes were shining with extraordinary light. They could breakthrough on the spot.
“Brother Lin!” A man’s deep voice came from behind.
He Chuan turned his head and looked in the direction of the voice. The white-robed scholar was standing behind him. He held a fan in his left hand and waved it a few times from time to time. He looked very handsome and unrestrained.
“And you are?” He Chuan did not know the other party.
“Zhang Bao, I’ve heard of Brother Lin’s name for a long time and couldn’t help but come to befriend you.” Zhang Bao bowed.
“So it’s Brother Zhang. I’ve heard a lot about you.” He Chuan said politely.
“You’re a literary talent of the Lin family? You don’t look like it.” A sharp and mean voice came from the side. It was a handsome man. Although he was dressed as a man, He Chuan could still tell that the other party was a woman.
“What’s wrong? You look down on women?” She saw through He Chuan’s thoughts and raised her eyebrows.
“That’s not what I meant.” He Chuan turned around and entered the examination hall. The woman was so angry she stomped her feet and cursed.
“Princess, this kid is too arrogant. Should we find someone to teach him a lesson?” Zhang Bao, who had been elegant just now, said sinisterly.
The princess, Ye Chan, looked at Zhang Bao in disgust and left.
Compared to Lin Fu, who was blindly arrogant, she hated people who acted one way in front of others but acted another way behind their backs.
Zhang Bao stood rooted to the ground, stunned. Cold sweat drenched his back. His elders had asked him to please the princess, but he did not know why he had made her angry. He could only blame He Chuan.
The examination process was very smooth. Perhaps the officials made things difficult for them, but there was no scrutinize .
The imperial examination was the foundation of the country, and the five emperors personally left spells to maintain order.
It was a platform that relied entirely on strength. No one dared to tamper with it, not even the royal family.
…
The next day, when the results were released, He Chuan and Lin Xiu sat in the meeting hall with a few people beside them.
These people were the legitimate sons of the Lin family’s First Branch, and they were Lin Fu’s half-brothers.
Seeing Lin Fu’s bastard son in the meeting hall, the others were quite displeased, wondering what was wrong with the family head.
“Are you really confident?” Lin Xiu asked.
“No problem.” He Chuan had a plan in mind
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of gongs and drums came from the door, and the bailiffs sang loudly.
“Old Master won!” The servants ran in excitedly, and behind them were a few guys who were annoyed at running slowly. For such a big event, the reward must be quite a lot.
“Not bad, reward!” Lin Xiu said with a smile. The attendant beside her threw some silver to the servant.
“Send some tea money to the bailiffs outside.” Lin Xiu continued to call out.
The errand boy nodded and left.
He Chuan couldn’t help but smile. A High-level Scholar could finally take root in the world.
“I have a few choices. Which rank do you want?”
“Rank?” He Chuan was a little puzzled.
Ordinary magistrates were seventh-rank, and large counties were sixth-rank. These were the only two types. Could there be someone higher?
“Actually, there are fifth-rank counties, but the environment is bad and we don’t recommend it.” Lin Xiu took out the map. It was a coastal county in the northeast of Shanzhou. This county was called Guanlang County and had a population of about 150,000.
