There is a terrace outside the Confucian Temple, with white jade, black jade, bright jade and purple jade carved below. It is the place where the ceremony is held during the high ceremony.

The terrace is surrounded by stone railings on three sides, and a copper burning furnace is set on the four corners, and the furnace is made of tung oil torch.

In the middle of the hall, the "Tao of the Great Sage of the Great Sage Confucius" is enshrined. At the top is the statue of Confucius. The four saints of Confucius stood on both sides of the statue of Confucius, Yan Hui, Zeng Shen, Meng Ke, and Kong Ji.

Below the portrait is the tablet of Confucian sages, and then the tablet of Confucius' seventy-two sages.

Originally, Xunzi was also in it as a sub-sage saint, but later he was moved to the Legalists.

Under Fan Chunren's instructions, Ye Nan stood in the Confucian Temple.

"Originally, the Confucian science exam was conducted by the Jinshi who chose Confucian science exams after the palace exam. But your situation was special, and the saint had already signaled it and conducted it alone."

Fan Chunren took out the token representing the lecturer of the Holy Academy, injected a thread of literary energy, and then shot it into a small hole in a thick black pillar next to the Confucian Temple.

The next moment, a mist rose from the incense burner in front of the ranking, wrapping Ye Nan. At the same time, the tablets representing the Confucian saints light up one after another.

This means that the saint cast his own phantom, just as it was during the trial.

Outside the Confucian Temple, Su Shi counted the number of Confucian saints who arrived.

One, two, three, four, five!

Su Shi was secretly shocked: Just for Ye Nan alone, five saints came together!

What made him even more envious was that even the statue of the sub-saint Mencius, who is comparable to that of the sub-saint Yan Hui, has lit up!

You know, at that time, the Jinshi who chose the Confucian cadet was only one of the sub-saints! Guang Ye Nan's attractiveness was even better than theirs!

Su Shi's heart suddenly felt as if he had eaten lemon, and it became sour!

At the same time, the sub-saint Mencius was also communicating with other saints.

"This is what you said, and at the same time report it to me, Xun Sheng (Xun Zi), Sun Sheng (Sun Wu), and Xu Sheng (Xu Xing) the seeds of the holy path? Let me take a good look."

At this moment, Ye Nan, who was wrapped in smoke, was still in the Confucian Temple, but his soul was led to another place.

He opened his eyes and saw a huge blue-gray mountain, more than a hundred feet high.

But when you look closely, this mountain is made up of countless bamboo slips, which is even more magnificent than the usual mountain peaks. You can tell at a glance that it is definitely not the magical craftsmanship of nature, which is amazing.

The edges of this mountain are steep and smooth, and they are simply straight, and there is no place to climb.

While Ye Nan was hesitating, a piece of green and yellow bamboo slips fell from the mountain peak, floated to him like light feathers, and slowly unfolded.

It says:

Confucius said: Learn and practice it from time to time

Ye Nan replied subconsciously.

"Isn't that a good thing?"

When he answered, the bamboo slip fell again and stopped at a distance of one foot higher than the ground.

"Oh, so that's it."

Seeing this, Ye Nan knew it and then looked up at the top of the mountain.

"I have a visual analysis. If you want to pass this Zhujian Mountain, you will probably need to go to the nine hundred and ninety-nine levels and answer 999 questions?"

For him who never forgets everything, this is not difficult at all.

However, when Ye Nan stepped on the bamboo slip, his brow suddenly frowned.

Although it is not obvious, a faint pressure emanates from the bamboo slips.

Probably an ant level.

But since that's the case, this should be the Zhujian Mountain in Shushan. What tests not only knowledge, but also willpower?

Following the steps and answering four more questions, Ye Nan felt that the pressure he faced increased by one level.

It is probably the cockroach (north) level.

After the fifteenth question, the pressure was raised to the cockroach (southern) level.

As Ye Nan answered the questions faster, the pressure he felt also increased rapidly.

Mantis, centipede, spider, toad, poisonous snake, wolf, wild pig, bear, tiger, demon, demon soldier, demon general, demon king...

When he reached the 600th floor, he stamped his body, as if he could hear his bones creaking.

The smoke formed an illusion. In Ye Nan's mind, it seemed that there was a demonic energy on his body, a hideous face, and a strange weapon, attacking him.

Still the kind that rushes to the face.

Once he takes a step back, he will naturally end up with Shushan.

Above the mountain of books, in the thick clouds, Mencius led a few saints to point fingers at Ye Nan.

He replied to Yan.

"It's really good to go up to six hundred layers in one breath! This is already a field that only Hanlin will enter! And it seems that he is far from stopping."

Mencius also nodded slightly and expressed his approval.

"Yeah, not bad."

They watched Ye Nan continue to climb up the steps: 610 floors, 620 floors, 630 floors...

On the 670th floor, Ye Nan felt the fierce power of the demon saint clone level that day. On the 700th floor, this terrible pressure once again changed qualitatively and entered the real demon saint level.

Being able to stand here means that even when the demon saint comes, you can have the courage and ability to take action, rather than surrender.

At this time, Mencius's face had a look of satisfaction, and several Confucian saints had even more strange faces.

"He wouldn't think that this Shushan would be successful if it was necessary to reach the top of the mountain?"

...

Of course, Ye Nan didn’t think so. If you want to climb the top of the Book Mountain to be successful, then there may be more teachers than students in the Holy Academy!

According to his judgment, as long as you pass the five hundred levels of Book Mountain, you can barely pass the test - this is just the average level of a Jinshi. A Jinshi without this ability is not qualified to enter the Holy Academy.

It can even be said that the qualification alone is still poor. But who made the current situation in the Song Dynasty look like this?

When he reached the 712th floor, Ye Nan could not hold on anymore.

His will was still firm, but he supported his knees with his hands, gasped in his mouth, sweating profusely, and his body trembled continuously - the pressure of the demon saint was enough to crush the ordinary Jinshi, Ye Nan could persist in stepping onto the twelve steps, and even Mencius smiled.

But at this moment, a green oval shaped gauze as big as a fist flew out of Ye Nan's palace.

when!

when!

when!

This literary gall, which already has the prototype of a bell and tripod, shook three times in a row three feet above Ye Nan, and rippled green ripples, warming Ye Nan's body.

Under the healing of the green ripples, Ye Nan's trembling hands and feet gradually calmed down, his pale face gradually became normal, and even his breathing slowly stabilized.

He raised his head and looked at the bamboo slip in front of him again: The past Xia was virtuous, the distance was the object, the tribute of gold and nine herds

This is a sentence from Zuo Zhuan, followed by

"Cast a tripod and an object, and prepare all things for it, so that the people can know the gods and evil spirits."

Immediately afterwards, the bamboo slip also fell to Ye Nan's feet.

When Ye Nan raised his leg and stepped on the bamboo slips, the demon saint's pressure came again.

when!

But his head kept ringing without moving, and turned into a light green bell-shaped shield to block Ye Nan.

After the demon saint's power passed by the shield, it was reduced by more than 40%, allowing Ye Nan to pass the level easily.
Chapter completed!
