Chapter 58 Empire Assessment

When Lin Xun came out of Shi Ding Zhai, he still had 173 silver coins on his body, and most of the expenses fell on those spirit medicines and spirit ink.

There is no way to do this. The items used for cultivation are all extremely valuable, and ordinary people simply cannot afford it.

Lin Xun has also heard that there are many people in this world who can set foot in the practice. Because they are too poor and lack financial support, they will never be able to practice in their entire life, and they can only become ordinary members of the common people.

Fortunately, the current Lin Xun is not worried about this.

Near noon, Lin Xun has decided to set off and return to Feiyun Village. Xue Liang sent two guards to help Lin Xun escort the goods and walk together.

At the same time, these two guards are also responsible for acquiring Feiyun Fire Copper. This time they follow Lin Xun to explore the road together. After that, they will take the initiative to go to Feiyun Village to buy Feiyun Fire Copper every other month.

In this way, even if Lin Xun leaves Feiyun Village in the future, he no longer has to worry about no one helping Feiyun Village to escort and exchange goods.

Lin Xun knew very well that this must be Yan Zhen's arrangement, and this also proved from the side that Shi Dingzhai was indeed doing what he said.

In the future, as long as Shi Dingzhai is still in the Qingyang tribe, and as long as he is still alive, Lin Xun will not worry about who will break the contract.

Moreover, with Shi Dingzhai as a backer, it can also ensure that others will not dare to touch the wealth of Feiyun Village.

Xue Liang personally sent Lin Xun to the outside of the Qingyang tribe, which attracted a lot of attention along the way, but when they recognized Shi Dingzhai, they all retracted their gazes tacitly.

"Young Master Lin Xun, based on your current age and cultivation, why don't you go to Donglin City to take the government exam?"

Following the conversation all the way, when Xue Liang learned that Lin Xun was only thirteen years old this year, he was surprised and couldn't help but say.

Lin Xun was stunned: "The government test?"

Xue Liang patiently explained: "Every other year, the empire will conduct layer-by-layer selections to recruit outstanding and amazing talents from all over the world..."

According to Xue Liang, in order to select talents, the Ziyao Empire has set up four types of examinations for selecting talents, namely, the prefectural examination, the state examination, the provincial examination and the national examination, according to different regions.

This is also very understandable. The territory of the Ziyao Empire is extremely vast. Except for the Imperial Forbidden City, the other territories are divided into 34 provinces. Each province has several prefectures, and each prefecture has several prefectures and counties.

In short, prefectures, prefectures, provinces, and imperial capitals constituted the vast territory of the Ziyao Empire.

The "prefectural test", "state test", "provincial test" and "national test" correspond to different levels of assessment and selection respectively.

Among them, the government exam is the lowest level of assessment, and the assessment conditions are also very simple. It is required that those participating in the assessment should be no more than fifteen years old and have a cultivation base.

As long as these conditions are met, everyone can successfully pass the government test.

The assessment requirements of the state exam are stricter, and it is necessary to accurately judge the cultivator's aptitude, understanding, and roots, and only the outstanding can pass the assessment.

The assessment of the provincial examination can no longer be described as strict, but rather harsh. Even Xue Liang can't explain the specific content of the assessment, but he knows that those who can pass the provincial examination are all world-class people!

As for the national exam, it was too far away. It was the top exam in the Imperial Forbidden City, and most of the people who were able to take part in it were the ones who were one in ten thousand miles.

It is worth mentioning that the government test, state test, provincial test, and national test are all selection tests.

If you want to take the national exam, you must not only meet the age of 18 years old, but also have to pass the approval of the government exam, state exam, and provincial exam.

After hearing this, Lin Xun couldn't help but secretly marveled. In the annual round of assessments, I don't know how many amazing people will emerge. These characters can stand out from the numerous assessments. As long as there are no accidents in the future, they will definitely become the members of the Zi Yao Empire. Mainstay, shine.

But soon, Lin Xun realized a problem and said, "Uncle Xue Liang, are there any specific benefits to participating in the assessment?"

Xue Liang was dumbfounded, and after a long time he said: "There are many benefits, not only to gain fame, but also to gain many opportunities for promotion and climbing, and most importantly, it will also be of great benefit to your future cultivation path."

After a pause, he continued: "Take the government test as an example, as long as you pass, you will be favored by many clans, chambers of commerce, military, and academy forces, and they will do everything possible to win you over and provide you with the wealth you need for your cultivation. and resources." Lin Xun said in surprise, "Why is this?"

Xue Liang said with a smile: "It's very simple, don't think it's just a government test, but all the participants are young people under the age of fifteen, and they have a cultivation base. People like this are good candidates with great potential. Miaozi, if you can win over and become a member of your own power, you will definitely bring great benefits to the power in the future."

Lin Xun thoughtfully, nodded and said, "So that's the case, but if you don't want to join other forces, there will be no other benefits?"

Xue Liangdao: "Of course not. As long as you pass the government test, the empire will reward you with a fortune and provide you with the opportunity to participate in the state test. As long as you pass the state test, the benefits are much more than the government test. At that time, some The big forces will also pay attention to you."

"If you can pass the provincial exam, that's amazing. Even if you don't have the opportunity to take the national exam, you can still have a very high status, enjoy endless wealth, and a steady stream of cultivation resources."

"As for the national exam... as long as you pass it, you can enter the palace of Qinglu Academy! It is the most famous academy in the empire, and it is the holy place of cultivation that countless practitioners dream of!"

Speaking of this, Xue Liang's voice couldn't contain a touch of excitement, and his face showed admiration.

After a long time, Xue Liangcai recovered a little, and smiled bitterly: "However, Qinglu College is not easy to enter. It only admits 100 students every year, and 99% of the practitioners who participate in the national exam are difficult to enter."

Lin Xun digested it silently for a long time, and couldn't help but sigh: "This Qinglu Academy is really powerful, at least even the surface of the currency circulating in the empire is stamped with its pattern."

Xue Liang felt the same way, and said, "Who said no? After all, the assessments for selecting talents in this empire are not simple. Every assessment is very knowledgeable. If you are willing to participate, you can go to Donglin City to inquire about the details. Here's the news, I heard that in two months, the government test in Donglincheng will begin."

Lin Xun nodded: "I will seriously consider it."

When they spoke, the group of them had already arrived outside the Qingyang tribe.

Sent here, Lin Xun took the initiative to say goodbye: "Uncle Xue Liang, there is no need to send it again."

Xue Liang nodded: "Well, take care all the way."

Lin Xun smiled, rode the scaled horse, turned his head and galloped into the distance. The two guards from Shi Ding Zhai also escorted the goods and followed.

"This little guy's actions last night seemed reckless, but he has a smart mind and a ditch in his chest. If there are no accidents in the future, he will definitely have a bright future. It's just a pity that he was born in a remote and poor place with too little knowledge and experience. Lots of twists and turns..."

Xue Liang silently looked into the distance until Lin Xun and their figures disappeared, then he withdrew his gaze and turned back to the Qingyang tribe.

...

At the same time, Wu's firm.

Wu Deyong sat dry in the hall, his eyes were filled with streaks of blood, and his face was even more gloomy.

He had no idea how a young man from Feiyun Village could become a guest of Shi Ding Zhai, and even Yan Zhen, the shopkeeper of Shi Ding Zhai, personally stood up for the young man, which made Wu Deyong nowhere to vent his anger. Bear with it.

Shi Dingzhai's power is too terrifying, not to mention Wu Deyong, even the Wu clan behind him can't offend a behemoth like Shi Dingzhai.

Compared with Shi Ding Zhai, they are as small as an ant in front of a towering tree. If they want to trouble them, Shi Ding Zhai can run over them with a move of a finger!

So, this can only be tolerated.

At this time, an attendant hurried to report and said, "Report to the shopkeeper, that kid has left the Qingyang tribe, and there are two guards from Shi Dingzhai with him."

Hearing this, the last trace of unwillingness in Wu Deyong's heart suddenly vanished, his face collapsed, and Shi Dingzhai actually sent guards to accompany him! This is obviously a warning to them that Wu's firm should not do some excessive things!

"Treasurer, is this the case? Mad dog Wu Jie and the others were all killed by this kid. Who doesn't know about this in the Qingyang tribe now? If we don't solve it, how can we raise our heads in the Qingyang tribe in the future? ?"

A middle-aged man on the side of the hall spoke angrily, causing others to nod.

Wu Deyong shouted angrily: "Forget it, do you still want revenge? Do you want Shi Dingzhai to find an excuse to eradicate us all?"

The crowd fell silent for a while.

After breathing for a long time, Wu Deyong regained his calm and said: "This matter is over, don't mention it in the future!" Someone couldn't help but say: "But now there is no news from Deacon Wu Henshui, should this matter be forgotten? "

The mention of Wu Henshui made Wu Deyong's lips twitch, and he gritted his teeth: "Idiot, that young man killed a single person in the Qingyang tribe, do you still think that Wu Henshui is still alive now?"

Everyone was silent, and they actually knew that Wu Henshui was only afraid that he was in danger, but they were extremely unwilling to let Lin Xun go just like that.

This is not only related to their face, but also the reputation of Wu's firm in the Qingyang tribe!

"Treasurer, it's not convenient for us to do it, but we can find someone else to do it. Why not pay some outlaws to do this?"

After a long time, someone made a suggestion.

But Wu Deyong was so angry when he heard this, he slapped the table and scolded: "Did you all forget what Yan Zhen said last night? As long as something happens to that boy, whether it's our fault or not, Shi Dingzhai will Get rid of us as soon as possible! Do you know what this means? Even if the young man died in the mouth of the beast, we also have to suffer full revenge from Shi Dingzhai! A bunch of idiots! You can't even speak your mind!"

Everyone was immediately stunned, and their hearts were so aggrieved that they were about to explode. This Shi Dingzhai was so fucking deceiving!

Seeing that no one spoke for a long time, Wu Deyong took a deep breath and said: "Of course, this revenge must be avenged, but it is not at this time, don't forget, who left with Wu Henshui, and the guard commander company of Feiyun Village. Rufeng, I remember that his son Lian Fei is now practicing in Donglin City, and when the opportunity comes, this Lian Fei may be of great use..."

At the end of the day, there was a sullen aura in his voice.
