Peerless Taoist

"I can't see anymore, why can't I see anything!"    

Atop the city walls, there was already a wave of wailing.    

There were corpses of flesh and blood everywhere, as well as some injured soldiers.    

"Damn it!" Qin Yu held a long saber in his hand and was furious. He wanted to charge forward and kill!    

Although Spirit State City had maintained a high-intensity battle previously, those rebel soldiers who charged into the sword formation were only a small number.    

That small number of soldiers could be easily killed with ordinary Spirit Breaking Crossbows.    

However, these Blood Devils were different.    

Not only were they difficult to kill, they did not have any vital points. The most important thing was that they did not fear death. As soon as they reached the city wall, they exploded.    

Just the first round of charging had caused the defending troops on the city wall to die and die.    

Looking at the blood demons behind, there were already countless of them. Even if there was a sword formation outside killing them, they probably wouldn't be able to hold on for too long.    

In the sky, when the examiners saw this scene, they all sighed.    

"In the end, I still can't hold on any longer."    

The examiners' eyes dimmed, and a trace of pity appeared in their eyes as they looked at Lu Yu.    

No matter what, it was already considered very good that Lu Yu could hold on until now.    

Since Lu Yu had just awakened from the Yellow Millet Dream, he had been planning every step of the way. He had forcefully defended the Spirit Province, which should have been destroyed, until now.    

If it was them, many of them would not be able to hold on until now.    

Spirit Province was just an ordinary prefecture.    

As for the rebel army, they were many times stronger than them. This was a difference in strength that was hard to make up for.    

A general said, "If Lu Yu fails this time, my military is willing to recruit him. Even if he doesn't have the status of a sergeant, he can still rely on his military merits to hold a position. "    

This was another path for Great Yu's Heavenly Dynasty, which was to use military merits to obtain official positions.    

For example, the title of General Xuan Wu that Lu Yu had obtained earlier was just a false title, and he could not obtain the blessing of the destiny of the Heavenly Dynasty.    

However, if Lu Yu really joined the army, he could use military merits to obtain a real official rank.    

For example, the Spirit Province's Guardian General was also an official rank, and in terms of Fate, he could obtain the same blessing as the Prefecture Overseer.    

This was also a path, but compared to a true scholar's background, it was often more bumpy.    

Unless it was an extremely powerful expert, otherwise, even if he died, he would only be able to guard a single place and would not be promoted to a higher level.    

Just like Lu Yu, who was ranked first on the two rankings, if he were to reinstate his personal military position, it would not be too high. At most, he would just be a general guarding a certain continent.    

This was absolutely a waste of talent for Lu Yu.    

Only then did some of the examiners reveal a look of pity.    

"There's no other way. Rules are rules. If Lu Yu dies or loses his identity as the Prefecture Overseer of the Spirit Prefecture, his court examination will be a complete failure." Zhang Xuance said calmly.    

Whether it was defending Lu Yu or speaking now, Zhang Xuance did not defend anyone. Instead, he maintained the most basic rules.    

If Lu Yu really failed in the Imperial Examinations, although Zhang Xuance admired Lu Yu, he would not make an exception.    

"Look at these Blood Devil Assault. I'm afraid it will happen in a few more rounds... Hmm?"    

As one of the examiners was speaking, he suddenly saw Lu Yu walking east, and his brows furrowed slightly.    

All the examiners stopped their discussions and their gazes gathered on Lu Yu.
