At the age of Mao, all the landlords were preparing to take the exam, with more than 300 people, which was a grand view that had not been seen in previous years.

At this time, everyone in the Academy of Rites surrounded the deacon Lu Yi and appeared under the plaque of Sanwei Hall.

Lu Yi was also wearing a silver-gray Confucian robe, but with a Pisces pants hanging around his waist and a black scarf on his head, showing his noble identity as the eight deacons of the Land Valhalla. As soon as he appeared, everyone in the field was silent. Whether it was the children who participated in the competition or the father and brother who came to take the exam, they bowed to Lu Yi in one go, and saw the four deacons of the this Valhalla.

Lu Yi had a gentle face and a calm expression, without any arrogant look. He politely bowed to everyone, indicating that they didn't have to be too polite. Then there was a manager of the Ethics Academy and ordered all the children taking the exam to stand in front of Lu Yi. The father and brother who were taking the exam consciously flashed to both sides.

Facing the juniors who took the exam, Lu Yi finally showed the majesty of a giant who was in charge of ethics and literature, and said in a deep voice to the children: "My Lu family adheres to the teachings of Confucius and Mencius, passes on poetry and books from all directions, and teaches all the children of the clan to study since childhood, and teaches them clearly. Therefore, this selection is based on writing only by writing. All disciples who take the exam, whether they are legitimate or illegitimate, must write an essay based on the topic within two hours. The best one can obtain the recommendation of this family and participate in the ninth-rank official rating for several months."

These are all the intentions that everyone has known for a long time, so Lu Yi did not say a few words, then turned around and said, "Come in with me!"

The children carefully sorted out their clothes and lined up to follow Lu Yi into Sanwei Hall. They stood in the main hall first, and after Lu Yi burned incense on the ancestral tablets, they knelt down and kowtowed together to accept the inspection of their ancestors.

After getting up, Lu Yi took them through the front hall and arrived at the patio between the main hall and the front hall. The patio in Sanwei Hall was also very wide, and at this moment, there were more than 300 short tables filled with short tables. There were a few white paper neatly placed on the short tables, and there were cushions in front of the tables.

In front of the rows of low tables, there is a high table with an object on the table covered with red silk, which is probably related to today's exam.

This is the examination room for this competition. In addition to the deacons and servants, there are two land fence elders responsible for invigilating the examination room. After the children saluted to the two elders, they knelt in front of them one by one.

When the children sat down and arranged the pens and ink they carried, Lu Yi's majestic gaze swept through the scene, more than 300 children were silent.

Seeing that there were more than a dozen empty tables, Lu Yi frowned slightly and said, "Where is the person?"

The deacon on the side hurriedly reported: "It must have given up the exam."

"I signed up but didn't dare to take the exam. What's the difference between escaping and escaping in the last battle?" Lu Yi said sternly: "Find out the identities of these people and remove them from the Ethnic Academy!"

The children couldn't help but look shocked. The Land Valor's Ethics Academy was in charge of the children's examination and ratings. Once they were removed from the list, it almost meant that these children would never make a name for themselves.

A sentence cut off the future of more than a dozen children, but Lu Yi did not fluctuate at all. He gave a light command: "Let's start the exam."

The deacon of the Ethnic Academy responded and lifted the red silk on the high table, revealing a quaint zither. At the same time, someone opened the water, and the sound of dripping water reminded the children that time had begun to pass...

The children hurriedly looked at the guzheng and started to scrape their stomachs. This era advocated agility in talent, so even if the exam was not done, there would be no detailed test questions. They would only give objects like this, or write a few words, so that the candidates could freely perform. However, the content was only free, but the format must be strictly followed by the rules of parallel prose and there should be no violations.

Lu Yun looked at the guzheng and silently started to write the script. Just as he thought about the beginning, he accidentally caught a glimpse of Lu Qi sitting in front of him, and he was already writing hard. Lu Yun couldn't help but exclaim in secret, saying that this kid really has the capital of arrogance, and this skilled material alone made him sigh.

However, he quickly calmed down and ignored the article, immersed himself in the composition. After spending more than half an hour, a beautiful article finally took shape in his belly. Then he calmly grind the ink and moistened the pen and prepared to start writing.

At this time, Lu Qi had already gotten up to hand in the papers, and walked out of the examination room with awe-inspiring gaze of the deacon. When he passed by Lu Yun, he glanced at Lu Yun's test papers and saw that it was empty and there was no word. Lu Qi couldn't help but sneer, and in a voice that only Lu Yun could hear, he spit out two words: "Idiot!"

Lu Yun didn't know what kind of grudges the eldest young master had with him, but it didn't affect his retort to Lu Qi. He also sneered and said, "Plause!"

When Lu Qi heard this, his face changed rapidly, as if he had been exposed to his ulterior motives. He just glared at Lu Yun fiercely and left the examination room as if he was running away.

After seeing Lu Qi's reaction, Lu Yun understood that he had guessed correctly. After his initial admiration, he quickly realized that although there are people in this world who are extremely talented and agile, it is impossible to write a paper in such an exam that is related to fate.

You should know that parallel prose has requirements for parallelism and rhythm. The most important thing is to carefully consider the words and sentences. Even those who are talented must first conceive the article, write the draft, and then think about it word by word, and replace the words that do not meet the requirements in order to fully tune the tone and neatly match the parallelism.

Therefore, Lu Qi may have obtained the title in advance and made a good article so that he can complete it without thinking and writing. Of course, there may also be a genius who descended to the earth by Wenquxing, which is to do this. But Lu Qi, as the grandson of the Great Elder, had such a talent, how could he lose the initial list of four people and even fall to the point of confronting the same field with his own miscellaneous fish?

In an instant, Lu Yun understood what Lu Xin said earlier, clearly implying that no matter how good the article was written this time, he had no hope of choosing it. After all, without Lu Yi's help, even the grandson of the elder would not be able to get the test questions in advance. Since Lu Yi could give Lu Qi a thorough question, he would naturally not let the only place be left behind!

After thinking clearly about the past, Lu Yun was not disappointed, but he just felt a burst of sarcasm from the bottom of his heart. He was a dignified Lu family, known as the inheritance of ethics, but he was cleansed of dirty things about thieves and prostitutes. If this is the true nature of the family, what qualifications do they have to be role models for the world and to be the pillars of the Daxuan Dynasty?!

After calming down, Lu Yun pressed his distracting thoughts in his heart and began to write the first word. After he finished writing the draft and revising it, an hour and a half had passed. Then, Lu Yun neatly copied the article on the test paper. When he finished writing the last sentence, the leak was almost full.

Lu Yun breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed his wrist and read his article again. At this time, the sound of dripping water stopped, and the deacon closed the paper said in a deep voice: "Stop writing!"

At this time, most of the children had finished their composition, either straightened up with satisfaction or frowning, but there were also people who were procrastinating and wanted to write a few more words on the paper. The consequence was that they were all judged as timeout by the deacons and refused to accept their test papers.

The children who were rejected for the exam were depressed, but they were not too excited. After all, only one person was selected from the 300 people, and they knew very well that they had not even finished writing the article and had no chance at all...

The deacon collected more than 200 test papers and sent them to the Ethnic Academy for review. The children left the examination room in groups, and no matter what, everyone felt relieved...

Because the names of the candidates will be announced later that day, the father and brother who accompanied the exam brought dry food in advance. Most of the children did not go home and gathered outside the examination institute, eating dry food while waiting for the final result.
