C2919 On the Day of the Exam
On the opposite side of the street, the restaurant and teahouse were already filled with people waiting anxiously.
Lu Yu didn't see the people from Jade Cauldron Academy. He guessed that they were assigned to other tribute houses.
All the people who participated in the Imperial Examination were randomly arranged. They would only be announced seven days before the examination.
Unlike the Imperial Examinations in the mortal world, the Imperial Examinations in cultivation countries did not differentiate between civil and military affairs. Those who were ranked had to be well-versed in both civil and military affairs.
The first one to be tested was the theory examination. There were a total of three days for the examination, and it was divided into seven parts: Confucianism, Taoism, Martial Principles, Law and Knowledge, clear discernment, and policy.
In some cultivation countries in the medieval period, the officials often respected the strong. Although these people had outstanding strength, they only cared about their own cultivation. They were usually the hands-off owners. If there was chaos, then they would use force to suppress it, causing chaos.
Those countries, although they were called a country, were actually just a loose alliance. There were many dukes in the country, and the orders from the central government could not be sent to the local areas.
When the Emperor of Taiqian was still alive, he had already completely changed the rules of the Imperial Examination at that time.
At that time, the Imperial Examination was only a Martial Examination, and the various High Scholars from all over the country used all sorts of methods to compete with each other and finally chose the strongest person. Although this method was the same as the medieval period, it could only repeat the same mistakes.
Later on, the Tai Qian Emperor set up a theory examination and forcefully stipulated that if one did not pass the theory examination, they did not even have the qualifications to enter the combat examination.
This was an examination that was forcibly carried out on all the substitute officials. If anyone did not understand this point, they should not go to the imperial court to be an official and enjoy the blessing of Great Yu's luck.
Therefore, the imperial examination did not discriminate between civil and military, but the civil and military examination.
"It doesn't matter. We'll just wait here." Lu Yu sat in the carriage and held his breath.
There was a space formation in the carriage. It was the size of a spacious living room. It could isolate the outside from detection. Through the window, one could see the outside.
At this moment, Lu Yu suddenly noticed a group of people walking over from not far away.
That group of people were all dressed in white, and they wore golden crowns on their heads. They looked extraordinary.
Once they made their move, the clamorous noise in the surroundings immediately quieted down. Everyone's eyes were fixed on them.
Among this group of people, the man in the lead was around the age of a little over 20. His appearance was extremely handsome, and he was like a young master Pianran Jia who had walked out from a painting.
Those people behind him, although they were wearing the same clothes as the man, when they walked, they always followed behind that man, revealing the superiority of both parties.
"This person is actually a body cultivator!"
Lu Yu's eyes immediately saw through the Cultivation Methods that this man was cultivating.
Although the Heaven Realm was large, the vast majority of people cultivated Dao Arts. Very few people would go and refine their bodies.
The speed of improvement in body refinement was not fast. Furthermore, ever since the chaos in the Middle Ages, the Cultivation Methods in body refinement between heaven and earth had become much more incomplete. In order to obtain the complete legacy, one had to go to some great sects to become their master in order to obtain it. Even so, it would require years of hard work.
Thus, the vast majority of people would choose the path of cultivating Dao Arts.
Along the way, besides the Mu siblings that Lu Yu had encountered before, he rarely encountered cultivators that cultivated body refinement.
What shocked Lu Yu the most was that this person had a pair of spirited eyes. The fierce and fierce Qi gathered and did not dissipate. His Qi and blood soared into the sky, faintly forming the shape of tigers, leopards, and jackals on top of that person's head. He bared his teeth and roared angrily.
