"Yes!" "It hit!"

"I got it too! I got it too! "I've been chosen as a tribute!"

"Look!" That person is crazy! "

Suddenly, a mournful scream came from the crowd, "Oh god!" Why are you doing this to me! You want to make me angry? Seventeen cases of the hometown exam lead the way. Twenty. Originally, he had a bright future and decided to enter the top three. However, he did not want to repeat Sun Shan's name again and again. Now that I am fifty-one, there is no hope for me even if I am undoubtful. Thinking back to the past, several cold windows, six falls, the next tears to return, full of grief. Fifty years of time had been turned upside down, and in exchange, he was as poor as a pauper. Now I have seen through the sea, no longer persistent. But as the orphans grew longer, I could no longer afford to raise them. He felt even more ashamed to face his family and ancestors. The only way to do that is to die and repent, and to pay the debt of grace of the Heavens! "

"This is bad!" Stop him! "

Following a heart-wrenching cry, the crowd burst into cries of alarm.

"He's dead!" A dead man! Someone come quickly! "

"Someone over there committed suicide!"

When the soldiers at the city gate saw this, they hurriedly rushed into the crowd and saw an elderly man quietly lying on the ground.

His eyes were wide open, his mouth was wide open, and his expression was extremely hideous.

There was a shining dagger stabbed into his neck. He was as dead as he could be.

Seeing this scene, the wine cup in Shang Zifeng's hands quietly fell on the table, with a "pa" sound.

A crisp sound rang out.

As if he was used to this kind of thing, Mu Hongxi shook his head helplessly and recited a poem. The name of the land of destiny comes from the leaf, and the name of the palace is in the swing of the sword. The near official of the brocade is in charge, and the filament is a profound principle. The night is full of love for the public. As the saying goes, a wise man is more capable than an ordinary man. "We should use it immediately, and split it into different levels for our efforts." "

He sighed emotionally, "Even though we've met for three years, we still have a few happy ones and a few sad ones!"

"What about spring?"

Sensing Shang Zifeng's doubt, Mu Hongxi explained: "Today is the day of the release of the list. The person who killed himself must have been someone unworthy of the title of High Scholar. This incident was quite sentimental. At the end of the day, it was only the selections of the warriors. There was still the Hall Competition. However, there were countless people who could not bear the blow and committed suicide. "Tell me, why do you need to go through all this trouble?"

The path of an official, especially that of a civil servant, was one that cost time and time.

It is often said that a cold window of ten years shines once in a while.

However, there were more than ten thousand Elementary Scholars, Elementary Scholars, and Scholars in the Country of Mausoleum.

However, there were only three people who could pass the test and reach the top three.

Shaohua easy to pass away, the years like a shuttle, ten time will not come back.

A fleeting moment, the day after the poor, the year like water urging people to grow old.

On the road of Imperial examinations, how many people could endure loneliness, stress and determination?

It could be said that even a child who had reached such a stage would have a certain level of tenacity.

However, after repeated impacts, even the toughest of dams would be destroyed by the flood.

Shang Zifeng also shook his head and sighed. How could he not know?

Compared to those hostages, what he was facing now was even more difficult.

The other party was risking their lives, but Shang Zifeng was risking his life.

"Brother Mu, I want to ask you about something."

"Oh? What does Brother Shang want to ask? As long as I know, I will tell everything I know. "

"I heard that Ten Academies will be recruiting soon. I wonder if this is true? "

Mu Hongxi was startled, and asked uncertainly: "Is Brother Shang referring to the Ten Academies on the Master's list?"

"Could there be other Ten Academies s?"

Shang Zifeng asked.

"I didn't mean that. But... It's just that the Ten Academies is not an ordinary place, and is not a place where one can enter just because they have knowledge. "

Mu Hongxi immediately waved his hand, pointing at the few children who were jumping up and down, he explained: "Brother Shang, look. Those who were able to stand out amongst the thousands of geniuses were all talented individuals. But they can't even touch the edge of Ten Academies. "

Shang Zifeng's eyelids jumped.

The meaning behind those words were that even if he managed to get in the top three, he still would not have the qualifications to enter the Ten Academies.

Mu Hongxi continued: "Don't just look at how we keep calling it 'Ten Academies', Ten Academies isn't really a school. It could also be said that it was not part of the academy, but it was an independent entity within the martial arts world. If I say it like this, Brother Shang might not understand. Let me make an analogy. In the cultivation sects, Fang Jin belonged to the Yuxu Sect. Tianji Pavilion. Calan Temple. Castle of Heroes. Caiwei Valley had the most revered position. With the Yuxu Sect as the leader, he led all the cultivation sects in the world and held an unshakeable position. If the Five Great Sects was an independent cultivation system, then the Ten Academies was an independent cultivation system. "The only difference is that one is a legacy master's manual, and the other is a lecture on Ki Refining techniques."

"What do you mean?"

Shang Zifeng did not understand.

Before today, Shang Zifeng knew very little about the Ten Academies, and even thought that the Ten Academies was just ten large scale martial arts academies.

Who would have thought that it would actually be an independent cultivation system.

No wonder Miss Wan Yu allowed him to enter the Ten Academies first, only then would she have the chance to get a placing in the Ancient Loulan Country.

Mu Hongxi seemed to be recalling something, but at the same time, he was telling a story, "Actually, the concept of cultivation does not only exist in cultivation sects. Many people misunderstood their understanding of cultivation and believed that the appearance of the Dao Sect's Ancestor, Shu He, was the reason why cultivation sects existed today, resulting in all kinds of cultivation techniques being passed on to the world. Some people even thought that all the cultivation techniques came from the same origin, whether it is the Qi Refining or the True Martial Arts, they were all evolved from the cultivation technique that the Ancestor Shu He cultivated. "

After pausing for a moment, Mu Hongxi said in a serious tone, "But the truth is different."

"Three thousand years ago, before the appearance of a cultivation sect in the World of the Nine Continents, people were already able to rely on their own insights to create their own cultivation techniques.

It was just that, these people were not like Shu He who had the Sun Moon God Xi Zhong to guide them.

The cultivation technique that he had comprehended was not at the level of Shu He's Fa Zu.

For the past thousand years, Shu He's sect of six meridians were constantly refined and had reached a level where other factions looked up to him.

After the destruction of the Alchemy Hall, the remaining five sects had strengthened their own cultivation, constantly improving themselves and increasing their strength with each passing day.

However, this did not mean that those who relied on their own comprehension of cultivation techniques had lost their descendants and had no other way out.

On the contrary, among the eight great clans, there were those who relied on their own creation of cultivation methods to prosper their clans.

For example, the Nangong family that was ranked first in Ye Yin Prefecture.

The one ranked fifth, Huangfu Clan.

And there was also the Zuo Qiu Family, who was ranked seventh.

The three great clans mainly focused on refining their Qi, and their bodies were used as support.

When the Ten Academies was first established, it was aimed at this type of extremely talented "itinerant cultivator".

established.

Of course, some disciples of some families would choose to go to the Five Great Sects to practice the techniques passed down in sects, in order to pursue to the peak of the Qi Cultivating Stage.

However, entering the Five Great Sects was not an easy task. Many people were beaten back to their original states before they could even cross the first step.

This was also the reason why.

At the same time, in order to continue their family's heritage, most of the disciples from the families who created their own cultivation techniques chose to enter the Ten Academies to cultivate.

Because they believed that one day, their clan's techniques would surpass the Five Great Sects's cultivation techniques.

"

Mu Hongxi took a sip of the tea and continued, "Until now, the Ten Academies was only established for only three hundred years. In just three hundred years, he had become famous throughout the Nine Prefectures. He could even be on par with the Dao Sect. One could imagine how powerful he was. I can say with all certainty that the elite strength of the Ten Academies is no less than the elite disciples of the Five Great Sects. The only difference was that the Five Great Sects had thousands of years of legacy, and their strength and deep heritage could not be ignored. These were things that Ten Academies couldn't compare to. After all, the Ten Academies did not have any self-created cultivation technique manuals. They were completely aimed at teaching the cultivation techniques of the various large Qi Refining Clans, helping them reach the peak of their cultivation. Just this point was enough to establish the Ten Academies's position as the second most powerful cultivator. Even so, it still far surpassed some of the big cultivation sects. And the top ranked Azure Dragon Institute was the leader of the Ten Academies. Those who were able to enter the Azure Dragon School had extremely outstanding aptitude. It was not an exaggeration to say that anyone entering the imperial court would cause the situation of the Nine Prefectures to become chaotic. This was also why, other than the Pixia Palace, the other three nations wanted to rope in the students that came from the Ten Academies with all their might, and did not even hesitate to bestow the title of marquis upon them. "Their goal is to borrow their power to guard a safe place."
