"What you have determined will surely lead to failure! Everyone in Jing Country, please join me in going all out to explore the sea of ten thousand questions. As for Yan Zewei's one thousand questions, I will answer them! Regardless of whether I win or lose, after I take the imperial examination, I will definitely go to Qing Country, fight in Xiangzhou with literature, and take back one state!"
After Fang Yun finished speaking, he walked towards Jingguo's table and chair with steady steps.
Xun Li smiled and said, "Answering 2,000 questions by yourself? You can't do it! Today, no matter how strong your literary courage is, I will knock a hole in it! After the Ten Nations Competition, I will tell you in front of hundreds of millions of people that no matter how strong a genius is, he can't beat the scholars of my country! No matter how amazing your luck is, you will eventually be suppressed by the scholars of Qing Country!"
Fang Yun ignored him, sat steadily on the table and chair, closing his eyes to rest.
As Qiao Juze walked, he looked at Xun Li and said, "If my Jing Kingdom loses today, I would like to trouble you all from Qing Kingdom to stay for a while. I, Qiao Juze, am itching to write something and want to bang my head against the wall. I hope you will give me a chance!"
Xun Li remained calm after Qiao Juze's words, but more than half of the top Jinshi candidates in Qing State looked stern.
When it comes to the Jinshi level, few people use literary courage to clash with each other, because the literary courage of Jinshi level is very strong. If the gap between the two sides is not big, the losing side may have its literary courage shattered, but the winning side is not much better and its literary courage will inevitably have cracks.
The strength of the Jinshi of Jing State is not as good as that of Qing State, but if they were to fight to the death, at least six out of the ten Jinshi of Qing State would have cracks in their literary courage. If Qiao Juze challenged the weakest Jinshi of Qing State to a literary duel, he might still win.
Chen Liyue then said: "Today I will also meet with everyone in Qing. My Jing country is not as powerful as Qing, but there are many people who are not afraid of losing their courage!"
"Ah... Never mind. I'll join in too. Since it's broken, let's break it together. The worst that can happen is that I can be a seventh-rank idle official and retire." You Nian said.
The rest of the students from Jingguo Shangshe either sincerely or had to express their participation in the literary competition.
More than half of the Jinshi of Qing State looked even worse. Ordinary literary duels and being willing to sacrifice one's literary courage for the country were completely different. The realm of literary courage was one aspect, but the mind of the scholar was more important. If these Jinshi of Jing State used the power of literary courage for the country, their power would at least increase by 20%.
The situation in Qing Kingdom was just the opposite. Although they were not sure that it was Xun Li's fault that led to only nine people left in Jing Kingdom, Xun Li was so suspicious that the resolve of every Jinshi candidate in Qing Kingdom began to waver.
"Then we will deal with you!" Xun Li was not afraid at all.
However, several of the most outstanding scholars from various countries looked at Fang Yun thoughtfully. As bystanders, their minds were clearer.
Yan Yukong looked at Fang Yun, then at Xun Li, and shook his head. He sighed softly without saying a word.
There were ninety pairs of tables and chairs in the literary competition hall. Eighty-nine people sat down one by one, leaving a pair of chairs empty on Fang Yun's left.
Fang Yun stood up and pulled the table on the left that originally belonged to Yan Zewei to align it with his own table.
Qiao Juze whispered, "You must hold on until the later stages. This third match may help us defeat the Qing Kingdom!"
Fang Yun nodded. He had already considered carefully the format of You Wantihai's competition.
A voice echoed in the sky.
"I have read thousands of books and written thousands of questions. The time limit is two hours. The test questions cannot be changed. One question per page, one thousand questions per thousand pages. Jingguo is short of one person, and the other students can answer the questions on his behalf. Let's begin!"
A thick stack of thousands of test questions flew onto their desks in front of everyone.
A total of one thousand test questions also appeared on the empty table to Fang Yun's left.
Fang Yun picked up the pen on his desk with his right hand, and picked up the writing brush on the left desk with his left hand, using both his broken supreme literary mind and his complete literary mind to write furiously.
"What!"
All the students present were stunned, so that no one wrote down an answer.
In the venue of the Ten Nations Competition, tens of thousands of people stood up suddenly and stared at Fang Yun on the huge screen in a daze.
Outside the various academies in the cities of the Ten Kingdoms, the Liangjie Mountains, the ancient deserted cities, and so on, hundreds of millions of people cried out in surprise.
"Fang Yun is doing two things at once? How could this be possible!"
"I thought Fang Yun would finish answering his own 1,000 questions before answering Yan Zewei's. Is he really going to answer two questions at the same time?"
"It's amazing! It's really amazing!"
"Isn't that just a show of strength?"
"Look. Fang moved his pen!"
"Fang Yun's first question turned out to be a difficult one! He actually asked what was written in the fourth column on page 62 of the 571st book that Fang Yun was reading! Even if a Jinshi had a photographic memory, he would still have to slowly recall and think about it... Eh? Fang Yun actually finished answering before I finished speaking?"
"Fang Yun's left hand was actually writing at the same time. The first question on the empty table was to copy a whole chapter from the sixth volume of the Horse Racing Classic! Wow, he is indeed a top-notch writer, and he can compose a poem in one breath. He wrote two lines in the blink of an eye! It's really scary! He is not a scholar, but a book maker!"
"He read the question and started writing in the blink of an eye. Didn't he even have to think?"
"He is scarier than the demon barbarian! No, he is scarier than the demon saint!"
"Look at the faces of the students from Qing Country. It's almost like seeing a demon saint."
Just as people from all over the human race were discussing the matter, Fang Yun held a pen in each hand, and with the help of multitasking and writing quickly, his two strokes were like dragons, and the black words on the paper appeared quickly at a speed unimaginable to everyone, not one by one, but in whole lines.
Fang Yun finished answering his first question first, then he gently raised his right hand. The first test paper flew forward and hovered three feet in front of him. The surface of the paper suddenly emitted a faint silver light.
At the same time as the first test paper on the right flew out, the test paper for the second question fell under the brush in Fang Yun's right hand.
During this process, Fang Yun's left hand had been reciting a chapter from the "Horse Racing Classic". The number of words in this chapter was more than ten times the answer to the first question on the table on the right.
After the second question on the right table was asked, Fang Yun read the question, thought for just a blink of an eye, and then lowered his right hand.
The left and right pens dance together on the paper again.
Up to this point, the other eighty-eight students participating in the competition had not started writing. They were all stunned by this scene.
Even the genius Yan Yukong and this year's top scholar Kong Deyu seemed to have lost their souls.
"I am convinced!" said a Jinshi from Qiguo, and began to answer the questions.
After Fang Yun finished answering the second question, the test paper flew forward and overlapped the first question, also emitting silver light.
The same is true for the third question.
After three silver test papers appeared in front of Fang Yun, the others reacted and hurriedly lowered their heads to answer the questions.
Although Xun Li, Lei Shisan and others picked up their pens, they looked absent-minded and read the first question several times. They thought for nearly thirty breaths before they started writing.
Soon, the other eighty-eight people finished answering the first question.
More than seventy test papers were suspended in front of the test taker, emitting silver light, but more than ten test papers flew to the back of the test taker. The test papers were yellow and old, as if they would be shattered by the wind.
The dozen or so people who answered the questions incorrectly or could not answer the first question looked very unhappy. This was a disgrace in front of more than a billion people of the human race, and it had a huge impact on the reputation of the culture. If an enemy mentioned this matter in the future, it would be a bloody old scar.
The students participating in the competition continued to answer questions.
Many people outside the venue were just watching the fun, but some smart people discovered a phenomenon.
Among the twelve people who answered the first question incorrectly, five were from Qing and five from Jia!
This ratio is too shocking. Half of the students from the two countries actually answered the first question incorrectly. It is obvious that the students from these two countries were hostile to Fang Yun, and after seeing Fang Yun demonstrate his ability to do two things at the same time, their minds have been shaken!
It was not until this time that a few people understood that Fang Yun relied not only on his own strength, but also wanted to influence the hostile students during the competition!
Yan Yukong glanced at the students from his own country and continued answering the questions without saying anything.
Xun Li turned back after answering the second question and saw that five people from Qing State had answered the first question incorrectly. He was furious and almost yelled at him, but he was a Jinshi after all, so he took a deep breath. He suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, don't be influenced by Fang Yun. Ten of us are working together, and Fang Yun alone can't do anything! I roughly understand that after he broke through Lingyan Pavilion, he got the incomplete supreme literary mind and could use two minds at once. As long as he doesn't use the power of fighting poems, the power of this mind and two minds will not decrease and he can keep using it, but the price is the consumption of talent! Add to that the consumption of writing and thinking about problems, he will definitely not last more than two hours!"
"Brother Xun, what you said makes sense. I was the one who lost my composure just now. Thank you for your advice!" A Jinshi who answered the first question incorrectly calmed down.
Another person muttered quietly: "I really don't know how to do it. It's better to give up in advance than to waste time thinking about it."
"It's right to listen to Brother Xun. Don't pay attention to Fang Yun!"
Xun Li glared at Fang Yun fiercely, then answered the question quickly.
Fang Yun still didn't say anything and remained fully focused. He didn't think that Xun Li was not strong enough just because he looked down on him.
The reason why Xun Li and others are confident is very simple, and it is happening everywhere in the world every moment.
Information asymmetry.
Except for Fang Yun himself, even the Semi-Saint doesn’t know how strong Fang Yun is.
As time passed, Fang Yun continued to answer questions at a high speed.
Ten questions, twenty questions, thirty questions... one hundred questions, two hundred questions, three hundred questions...
After answering the 160th question on the right table, the 161st question appeared under his pen. Fang Yun took a closer look and smiled helplessly. He did not expect that he would encounter the most difficult type of questions in Youwantihai.
The title is: Among the ten thousand books you are reading, the first word on the fourth column on page three of the tenth book, the seventh word on page sixty-eight of the twenty-fifth book, the fourth word on page twenty-seven of the seventy-sixth book, the first word on page five of the sixth column of the one hundred and fourth book, the ninth word on page six of the fifth column of the two hundred and seventy-ninth book, and the first word on page seventy-seven of the three hundred and ninety-eighth book form a sentence. Which book and chapter does this sentence come from? Please explain the meaning of this sentence.
Before the Ten-Nation Competition, Jingguo Academy provided guidance to Fang Yun and ten other people. This type of question belongs to the "give up questions" because it takes too much time to answer them. Even the most outstanding scholars from aristocratic families have to think for a long time before answering them correctly. Instead of wasting time here, it is better to use the same amount of time to answer other simple questions.
Among a thousand questions, there are at least twenty questions that can be abandoned. Whether one can decisively give up answering other questions has a great impact on one's grades.
The 161st question that Fang Yun encountered was not only a give-up question, but also the most difficult multiple-question question. Over the hundreds of years, many people have answered this type of question correctly, but the three people with the highest scores in Youwantihai every year have never answered this type of question and have simply given up.
Smart people won't waste time on this kind of questions.
After Fang Yun finished reading the question, he began to think, and in one breath, two breaths, he wrote down the answer. (To be continued...)
