Myriad Paths

Chapter 287 Preparation for the Exam

Li Qi and Shen Shuibi explained a lot, most of which were about how to deal with it later, especially about the things that happened within a month after he left, which could be said to be almost in great detail.

Regardless, the key point is still one, that is, although their purpose is to make money, they still have to uphold the right way, and it is best to have only temporary sacrifices, rather than let the civil war become the norm.

To put it bluntly, the purpose of the civil war is to allow the Holy Flame Realm to break free from the control of the "Immortal Way" and return to their original traditions.

A Holy Flame Realm that has external threats but is active and full of vitality can continuously provide Holy Flame for Li Qi and others.

Li Qi is not going to do the same as the Green Mountain God, which is not in line with his way.

However, if you want to change the road of a civilization, how can you do it without bloodshed? You can only reduce the losses as soon as possible.

Therefore, Shen Shuibi needs to help the Son of Destiny unify the world as soon as possible.

And Li Qi probably can't help much during this period.

Because he can't use the terminal to contact at any time during this month, and the entrance test of the Imperial College does not allow the use of the terminal.

Think about it.

You are not allowed to bring mobile phones to the exam. For the entrance exam of the Imperial College, you can bring a terminal in, so there is basically no need to take the written exam. Everyone just puts all the neatly laid out information and copies it.

Arrived at the Golden Platform, and said goodbye to Shen Shuibi again.

Li Qi thought about it and made up his mind. He kissed her before leaving.

Originally, he wanted to see the shy look of Rabbit, but Rabbit looked calm, accustomed to it, and even a little happy.

On the contrary, he failed to hurt others, but he was hurt instead. He had to start the Golden Platform in anger and leave quickly.

Alas, after all the calculations, it turned out that he was one step behind here. He was still too young.

Come to think of it, Rabbit's state of mind has always been free and easy. She has never been a timid person. It's just because she thinks too much, so she behaves a little slow.

What is free and easy?

Just do what you want.

People in the Taoist hermit sect are like this. They may have their own rules, but the rules are in their hearts, not in the outside world.

The pursuit of the heart is their pursuit.

That is why Shen Shuibi agreed to Li Qi's marriage proposal so easily, even without the ceremony and status.

Because those are not important, it is good as long as she wants it.

As for other things, it doesn't matter.

External things are not important to the people of the Taoist hermit sect.

Therefore, the Taoist hermit sect does not distinguish between good and bad, and good and evil are meaningless to them.

Some are extremely bad, all because their hearts are dirty.

Some are extremely good, because their hearts are like clear water.

Of course, most of the hermit sects are like Shen Shuibi, not good, not bad.

They don't get entangled in what is good or bad, nor do they care about good and evil.

Babies are the most innocent and follow their hearts. Will anyone care about the good and evil of babies?

What they do, say and do, is all from their heart.

For Rabbit, Li Qi's behavior will only make her happy, but not make her ashamed.

When Li Qi thought of this, his anger turned into joy, and he happily embarked on the road to the entrance examination.

He didn't worry about things outside the domain at all.

Because, in addition to Shen Shuibi's own strength, he still has two trump cards that he hasn't revealed yet.

One is the big blessing token that is exposed.

The other one comes from the human way.

Add them together, it is basically unlikely that there will be any accidents.

Li Qi has learned that even in the outer domain, the fifth grade is extremely rare, and there is basically no place like Tianxia where the fifth grade walks around.

For example, in Chang'an, when encountering some public events, such as the visit of Wushen Mountain last time, even mortals can see the third grade power with their own eyes, and even take photos with them.

Don't even think about such things in the outer domain.

Just in that world group, there are countless worlds, spanning countless light years, but there is not even a fifth grade.

According to Shen Shuibi's 200 times light speed, it takes eight years to run, that is, a distance of 1,600 light years. The highest grade existence is the sixth grade, and the Holy Flame Clan Saint King is already the strongest within 1,600 light years.

Moreover, the sixth grade is not weak at all. Give him a little time, and it is even enough to destroy the world.

It's not that the outer domain is too weak, it's really that Tianxia is too strong.

Since everything has been calculated, there is no need to worry. Shen Shuibi is not a mediocre player.

According to her, there are few people in the fifth rank who can beat her.

She is not good at fighting and has hardly fought with anyone. Logically, she is not qualified to say such things, but she said so. I think she has something to rely on, so there is no need to worry.

We are all adults and have a sense of propriety. Besides, if we are not willing to take such risks, then what money can we make.

They want to make big business outside the domain. A sixth-rank world is a great fortune for those Baiyue lords, but if they want to repay the debt of Luofu Mountain, it can only be said to be a drop in the bucket.

Li Qi returned to Chang'an smoothly.

Riding a star raft on the Golden Terrace can easily cross an almost infinite distance in a very short time.

Only those who have truly experienced the feeling of traveling in the endless domain can understand how terrifying this great power is.

When traveling outside the domain, there is nothing, the surroundings are empty, pitch black, without light, color, taste, and sound, and the scenery will not change no matter how far you go.

A mortal would suffer a mental breakdown if he stayed here for a few days, and only practitioners with strong wills could travel for a long time.

There are only extremely weak starlights around you. Through the extremely small angle changes of these starlights and the comparison with the star map, you can locate your position to avoid getting lost.

If you are really lost, even if you are a fifth-grade person, you will probably be trapped in the endless outer realm, and you can walk for thousands of years without finding anything.

The fast universe built by the first-class people has truly connected the outside world into one.

Without the Fast Universe, it would be difficult for people all over the world to move freely outside the territory, let alone travel and mine like they do now.

Falling from the golden platform to the ground, you are surrounded by the familiar Chang'an again.

The bustling scene remains unchanged. There are eight- and nine-level gods around to maintain traffic. You can see a ground flow station next to Jintai. Everything is in order. Many tourists have returned to Chang'an like Li Qi. Everyone is talking and laughing, and everything is peaceful.

As for the many disputes outside the territory?

If you stay in the most prosperous capital, would you care about Syria?

Only after arriving in Chang'an can we understand where the reverence for the world from outsiders comes from, and why they think this is the 'fairy world', and why countless people from outside the area want to come here.

Li Qi walked down from the golden platform and estimated the time. He should not miss the big exam.

However, just as he stepped off the golden platform, Li Qi saw an acquaintance walking towards him.

It's Zhongming Tower.

He was sitting in a wheelchair, with splints and plasters on his legs. He was blindfolded as always, but it always felt like he was looking at people with his eyes open, as if he could still feel his eyes.

A woman who looked like a caregiver was pushing him from behind, guarding not far from the golden platform.

"Ah, Senior Brother Zhong." Li Qi saw this and walked over quickly: "Senior Brother, why are you here?"

Zhong Minglou still had that kind and gentle tone: "I had a premonition that Junior Brother was going to appear here, so I waited here in advance. By the way, let me introduce to you. This is Miss Mei. I am really grateful to her these days, or Junior brother, you are very considerate. If it weren’t for Miss Mei, I wouldn’t be able to go anywhere.”

Hearing this, Li Qicai raised his head and took a closer look at the woman pushing Zhong Minglou.

Hmm... nothing special, just ordinary.

He has some cultivation, but he is not good enough. His appearance is at the level of an average person, so he looks ordinary no matter how he looks at it.

But yes, most of the people in this world are ordinary people, so where do so many weird things come from.

So Li Qi immediately responded with a grateful smile: "Thank you, Miss Mei. My senior brother is really taken care of. By the way, how did he...how did he get like this?"

Li Qi said, pointing to Zhong Minglou's broken leg.

Miss Mei lowered her head in embarrassment: "It's my negligence..."

Zhong Minglu interjected: "It has nothing to do with her. The main thing is that when I was thinking about things, I stepped on the wrong foot and fell down, which happened to break my leg."

No, sir, you are at the eighth level.

never mind……

Although you are in the eighth grade, you are Zhong Minglou, so there seems to be nothing wrong with this.

Li Qi calmly accepted what happened to Zhong Minglou. After all, there is no way for a magician to explain it with reason.

Then he asked: "Why did senior brother suddenly come to pick me up?"

"Well, I'm just a little worried. Junior brother, have you got what you need?" Zhong Minglou asked.

"Not yet, but I have found it, but it will take a hundred or two hundred years to get it. I am very satisfied, thank you senior brother." When Li Qi heard this, he immediately saluted and thanked him.

I really should thank you. A sixth-grade world with special products is not that easy to find. If you really have to go and search slowly in the wild world, it is basically the same as finding a needle in a haystack.

Being a pioneer is not that easy. If you are not good, you will lose your life. Exploring outside the territory requires taking a lot of risks.

"As long as there are no accidents, I'll be relieved. Miss Mei, let's go." Hearing this, Zhong Minglou immediately prepared to leave.

Miss Mei also bowed to Li Qi and said goodbye, then pushed the wheelchair away.

Li Qi watched the other party leave.

He is used to Zhong Minglou's behavior. Don't ask about the reason for the magic stick.

Just like it is now.

Li Qi knew that there was a divination in his body that blocked the cause and effect, but Zhong Minglou still accurately predicted the time of his return and squatted here just to ask him if he had got it.

These things cannot be thought about in detail, and it is not easy to ask questions.

After watching Zhong Minglou leave, Li Qi took a local train back to his yard in Chang'an alone.

In the next few days, he did nothing but review his lessons at home.

Youzhen knew that Yun Zai, so memorizing words was not difficult for him at all. As long as he finished reading, he would memorize it automatically. There was no need to deepen his memory, which directly improved his efficiency countless times.

However, endorsement is not difficult, but you still need to prepare for the actual operation.

He looked at past Taixue entrance exams and wanted to summarize the routines.

Then he discovered that there was no routine to summarize.

This exam is mainly divided into two aspects. One is the written exam, which is a test of your knowledge reserves and understanding of Tao.

The other is practical operation, and this method is diverse.

In the past, students were given a chaotic mess and asked to sort it out into normal test questions in their own way.

There have been exam questions that asked students to refine certain heterodox heretics on the spot.

There were also exam questions that asked students to use their own ways to tamper with the ways of heaven.

Or they may be refining weapons, refining elixirs, etc., and some are simply competing in martial arts, and some even only have written tests and no practical test questions.

There are so many, and almost everyone’s test questions are different.

Because there are not many people who are qualified to enter Taixue, and there are only a few people in ten years, they are basically asked individually. However, Li Qi discovered that these questions are designed around the path that the candidates have studied intensively.

In other words, apart from improving one's own level, there seems to be no particularly good way to deal with it.

no way.

It's still just hard power, there's nothing to be tricky about.

It's just... Li Qi felt vaguely worried.

Since he came to Tang State, everything has been smooth and stable, but Li Qi has never forgotten that he has offended someone.

In his mustard seed bag, there are still two heads of third-rank ministers.

Although it is not a real third-grade, but only a fifth-grade cultivation and a third-grade official position, it is also imbued with some Taoist charm.

The teacher also said that he still owed him a debt and would make up for it when he had the chance.

Since he came to Tang State, everything else seemed to be fine, but Li Qi felt that it was very dangerous to set up independent examinations...

However, soldiers will stop you, and water will cover you. No matter what, you have to take the exam.

————————

However, just when Li Qi was concentrating on preparing for the exam at home.

Among the Imperial College, two people were meeting.

Both of them seemed to be officials of the Tang Dynasty, but judging from the fact that they were not of the third rank, they were not among the noble officials.

But he is no longer a petty official.

Both of them are dressed as middle-aged men, but one looks more noble with a goatee, while the other has a mustache.

But I saw the one with the mustache saying to the other with the goatee: "Zhu Siye, will I do as you asked this time?"

Taixue Siye, whose duties are in charge of the government orders and instruction of all schools in the country, starting from the fourth rank.

"Please rest assured, Li Cheng. Since I brought this matter up to you, there is absolutely no reason for anything to happen. Moreover, this matter will not only be good for you, it will also undermine the prestige of the people in Wushen Mountain without losing control. I think it is a sacrifice." Wine won’t object,” said the man known as Zhu Siye, stroking his beard.

Tai Xuecheng, in charge of judging supervisors. All students who have achieved success in their careers every year will be tested based on their careers and divisions. They will be judged on their clear scriptures, oral examinations, scripture meanings, essays, current affairs, and stories. They will be judged on their clear Dharma and clear books. Test your skills and start from the sixth level.

The man known as Li Cheng nodded: "Well, since Wu Shenshan has taken the initiative to take the exam, it is appropriate to take this opportunity to slap Si Ye's brother in the face and vent his anger."

But Zhu Siye immediately said: "Hey, this is wrong. It is not to vent my anger for my brother, but to do this for the dignity of the imperial court. We previously allowed him to enter the Imperial Academy without any hindrance. It is already a great kindness. Wu But Shenshan didn't care, and said he didn't want it, so where does the majesty of the imperial court go, and where does the dignity of humanity go?"

"If this person is allowed to enter Taixue in a big way, is Taixue really a place where he can come and leave as he pleases? How will other students view this matter?"

"He is still a young boy, so he only needs a small punishment but a big admonishment. His life is not required, and he does not need to serve a sentence. However, it is necessary to make the exam more difficult to prevent him from developing contempt for the Imperial Academy. This matter is purely public, and My brother has nothing to do with it.”

Hearing this, Li Cheng immediately handed over his hand: "Siye is very public-spirited, and I admire him. Let me leave the rest of the work to him, so that he will not dare to despise Imperial College at all!"
