The National Scholars Hall was built 331 years ago. It is the exclusive hall for the imperial scholars of the dynasty, and non-national scholars are not allowed to enter.
The National Scholars Hall is also located in the inner city of the capital, covering a vast area, with gardens, bamboo forests, pavilions, pavilions and pavilions, which are beautiful and full of rich ancient charm.
The National Scholars Hall is divided into the main hall and the auxiliary hall. In addition, there are secret training rooms, thorny forests, iron beasts, and other places that can be used for cultivation.
At noon, the scorching sun hangs high, and the beams of light are like ten thousand swords falling down.
In the main hall, dozens of people gathered, all with young faces. There were beautiful maids walking through it carrying all kinds of drinks and food, and the delicate hands accurately placed the wine and food on each table safely.
"Ye Feifan, I heard that among the three newly promoted national scholars this time, one is from Chongshan Prefecture." The man wearing the flying wing crown said to the person opposite.
"His name is Chen Zong, and he is from Linshan County." Ye Feifan said with a slight smile, while Ye Feiyan and Qiu Honglie were sitting beside him.
While opening his mouth to respond, Ye Feifei felt very uneasy inside.
The first meeting with Chen Zong was not long ago, less than three months. At that time, Chen Zong was only a three-star combat power, not even the three-star limit level. With a sword, Chen Zong can be easily defeated and killed.
It has only been more than two months now, and Chen Zong has also been canonized as a national scholar. The change is so great that Ye Feifei feels a little unreal.
Although he didn't see it with his own eyes, it was heard that Chen Zong defeated Jiang Tianmu, who had a five-star initial combat power, and thus won the qualification to be named a national soldier.
Doesn't it mean that Chen Zong's combat strength jumped from less than the three-star limit to an early five-star or even higher level in less than three months
At that time, Ye Feifan evaluated Chen Zong as a genius, and it would not be a problem to reach four-star combat power. As for five-star, he didn't dare to think too much, after all, even he himself was not enough to reach five-star.
If Ye Feifan was surprised, then Qiu Honglie's heart was broken.
After more than two months, Qiu Honglie naturally wouldn't stay where he was, but compared with Chen Zong's level of improvement, it was simply a world of difference. Today he is only a three-star ultimate combat power.
Ye Feiyan's heart was turbulent at the same time, unbelievable.
Neither Qiu Honglie nor Ye Feiyan are national scholars, and they are usually not allowed to enter the National Scholars Hall, but today is a special day, and only Ye Feifan, the national scholar accompanying them, can enter here.
Among the dozens of people present, national scholars only accounted for a small part, and most of them were not national scholars.
"Yu Wenran, with your combat power, you should have been eliminated in the assessment mission. It really shouldn't be." The man with a pair of red phoenix eyes smiled slightly, with a bit of ridicule, a bit of teasing, and a bit of sarcasm in his words.
"Hmph." Yu Wenran's expression changed slightly, but surprisingly he didn't refute, instead he looked gloomy.
In normal times, when the old enemy said this about me, it would be necessary to have a lot of verbal swords, but this time I was indeed eliminated. Although I didn't want to admit it, my life was indeed saved because of Chen Zong's relationship. That feeling Don't say how humiliating it is.
"You have lost face to our royal family, but don't worry, I will get it back for you." Yu Wenxing spoke again, with a trace of sarcasm on the corner of his mouth, and a gleam in his eyes.
Yuwen Xing is also a member of the Yuwen Clan. His father is the commander of Jinlongwei. Although he is not a blood brother to the emperor, he is also related by blood. Although his official position is not as high as that of the prince, he has astonishing power.
Since childhood, Yu Wenran and Yu Wen Xing have disliked each other, and they will hit each other whenever they have the opportunity.
Yuwen Xing was canonized as a national scholar a few years ago based on some luck, but Yu Wenran was eliminated this time. Naturally, Yu Wenxing found a reason to attack him.
"Don't think too highly of yourself." Yu Wenran retorted with a cold snort. In fact, he was still a little worried. After all, Yuwen Xing's full combat power is said to have surpassed the five-star late stage. Chen Zong is probably not an opponent. , and if Chen Zong is defeated by Yuwen Xing, Yu Wenran will definitely be laughed at severely.
"At least taller than you." Yu Wenxing smiled coldly, almost choking Yu Wenran to death with a single sentence, and immediately, Yu Wenxing looked away: "Ahe, come and sit here."
The person who came was Yu Wenhe, one of the new national scholars, and he had a pretty good relationship with Yu Wenxing.
After a while, Su Xiaoshui also walked in, her eyes fell on her face.
There are fewer outstanding female warriors than male warriors, and the number of female national scholars is even smaller. As long as they look good, they are often very popular.
After all, if you want excellent offspring, you must have excellent blood inheritance, and it is best if both parties are excellent.
Su Xiaoshui is not only beautiful, but also has a good figure. He is also from an extraordinary background. He has talent and potential. Now he is even conferred as a national scholar, which is perfect.
After Su Xiaoshui stepped into the main hall, Shi Huanyue also came and became the focus again.
In terms of appearance and stature, Shi Huanyue is not inferior to Su Xiaoshui in the slightest. She is also a person with excellent talent and potential, and she is the daughter of the current commander-in-chief. No matter what aspect she has a strong attraction.
Seeing Shi Huanyue, the haze on Yu Wenran's face was swept away, as if the sun was breaking through the clouds, and he was full of smiles.
"Returning the moon, sit here." Yu Wenran said directly.
But Shi Huanyue just glanced at him with a calm expression, and sat down on the nearest empty seat, causing Yu Wenran's cheeks to twitch, and Yu Wenxing's unscrupulous laughter sounded beside him.
Chen Zong came from the outside and strode into the main hall of the National Scholars Hall. Immediately, eyes shot from all around, as if to see through himself.
"It's Chen Zong."
"The three newly promoted national scholars have all arrived."
"Chen Guoshi, you are here, please sit down." Xiao Mingli spoke first.
"Thank you Xiao Guoshi, but I can just sit by the senior sister's side." Chen Zong said with a smile, just now Shi Huanyue signaled to himself, it was to invite himself.
Xiao Mingli smiled, but without any embarrassment, but Yu Wenran's originally depressed expression became even uglier.
"Chen Guoshi, I have left Linshan Academy, you don't have to call me Senior Sister." Shi Huanyue whispered to Chen Zong who was sitting down: "Just call me by my name."
Fortunately, Shi Huanyue's voice was not loud, and Yu Wenran didn't hear it, otherwise he would probably vomit blood.
"Okay, Huanyue, you don't need to call me a Chinese soldier, just your first name." Chen Zong smiled, without any twitching.
Seeing Chen Zong sit down, fatty Yang Qifeng also came over and sat beside Chen Zong.
People came over one after another, and soon there were hundreds of people gathered in the main hall of the National Scholars Hall, but there were less than ten of them.
After all, except for this year's special, there was only one national scholar in previous years. Those national scholars from many years ago were either not in the capital, or they were practicing in seclusion and so on.
A powerful aura swept from outside the main hall like an invisible storm. When it passed over everyone's bodies, it made people feel like they were facing an enemy, and their muscles tensed involuntarily.
I saw a tall figure striding in from the door, with his hands behind his back, his thicker shoulders seemed to be able to lift a mountain and prop up the entire sky.
Under the thick eyebrows, there is a pair of refined and introverted eyes, passing by, making everyone feel that they are being stared at, and an invisible majesty falls on them.
Walking like a dragon and walking like a tiger among thousands of horses, wearing a black battle robe trimmed with armor, it looks as if he has returned from the battlefield, with an astonishing momentum.
"I've seen Zhang Guoshi." Immediately someone stood up and saluted.
"I have seen Zhang Guoshi." Others also got up and saluted, not daring to show any disrespect.
"True Martial Realm..." Chen Zong thought to himself, and got up to salute.
"This person is called Zhang Tianyun. He is 28 years old this year and he is from Gulan Prefecture. It is said that he grew up in the mountains and lived among ferocious animals. Teaching martial arts to his disciples, his combat power is astonishing, he was once ranked nineteenth in the Dynasty Dragon Ranking, he was conferred the title of National Scholar eight years ago, now he has the fourth level of True Martial Realm, and he is ranked thirty-first in the Dynasty Rising Dragon Ranking, and now he is playing Yu Weilong Army." Yang Qifeng said to Chen Zong like a treasure, his voice was so low that even Shi Huanyue not far away could hardly hear him.
But Chen Zong felt that Zhang Tianyun's eyes seemed to be in this direction.
According to Yang Qifeng, this Zhang Tianyun is indeed a great genius. He has reached the fourth level of the true martial arts at the age of twenty-eight. Strength, but five-star, Chen Zong estimated that Bawu Tianjiao's combat strength could not reach five-star, or even four-star, at most three-star level when practicing strength.
After all, compared with the level of martial arts in Donglu and here, the gap is very obvious.
Practicing martial arts requires not only talent and potential, but also a suitable environment and inheritance. Just like a skilled chef, without ingredients, he can't make perfect food.
"Everyone, please sit down." Zhang Tianyun walked to the vacant seat and turned around. He stretched out his hand to signal everyone to sit down, and he also sat down. .
"I'm very honored to be able to preside over this year's entrance examination." Zhang Tianyun spoke again, his eyes swept away: "Because there are three people in this year's national scholars, and there are many talents."
"The three newly promoted national scholars, please get up and let Zhang get to know each other." Zhang Tianyun said loudly, and suddenly, his eyes fell on Chen Zong, Yu Wenhe and Su Xiaoshui respectively.
The three got up and saluted Zhang Tianyun.
"The three of you are all outstanding men, but remember that becoming a national scholar is not about enjoying, but taking on greater responsibilities." Zhang Tianyun's eyes rested on the faces of the three respectively, as if to deeply remember the three of them. He stayed the same, and said immediately, in the tone of a senior.
True Martial Realm, who became a national scholar eight years ago, can be regarded as a senior, Chen Zong and the three nodded one after another.
"The entrance examination is not only for welcoming new national scholars, but also for all geniuses to gather together and communicate with each other." Zhang Tianyun talked eloquently: "But no matter what kind, the ultimate goal is to let everyone go further. Get to know the newly promoted national scholars."
As he said that, Zhang Tianyun's eyes swept across Chen Zong, Yu Wenhe and Su Xiaoshui again, Chen Zong's heart moved, and he said secretly: Here we come.
