The World of Yellow Sky

Chapter 615
As soon as he said a word, the noise suddenly rose from all around.

"Zhao Kang, the [-]th class in the second class of the Jiazi Academy in the eldest son city, can be promoted to the county school! Please come closer."

A louder voice sounded, and a dozen or so Tiqi of the Eagle Wolf Guard loudly repeated the report of the Thousand Household Officer.

"My Kang'er won the prize!"

A middle-aged man covered in dust and wearing short brown clothes knelt down on the ground, hugged a young man in front of him, and laughed loudly.

The pale young man's face was still a little dazed at first, he hadn't figured out the situation, and then his brows also relaxed.

"I won, I won..."

The boy was held in the arms of the middle-aged man, muttering to himself.

"I won..."

The original joyful voice turned into a whimper in his mouth.

No one knows the hardships better than him. For three years as one day, he did not dare to neglect for a moment during these three years. He knew that he was not as smart as others, and he knew that he was stupid, so he did not dare to neglect.

He didn't expect that he would actually be admitted to the county school, and tears flowed down his cheeks. For the past three years, all the bitterness that only he knew about came to his heart. He couldn't hold back his emotions anymore, and burst into tears.

In the Meng School, everyone is studying hard. Few of their families are rich, and most of them are poor. Even if the taxation of the Taiping Road is much lower than that of the Han Court, the conditions of a family are not It will get better in a year and a half.

Some of them are used to living in poverty, even if they have saved some money and some surplus food, they dare not use it indiscriminately, and their lives are still tight.

Although the criteria for recruiting students in the Meng School is from seven to thirteen years old, the students selected into the Meng School are generally in their teens, and rarely under the age of ten. After all, admission is based on merit, and older children have more competitive advantages.

When they were more than ten years old, they all remembered the hardships they had experienced.

It is the hardships experienced in the past that motivate these schoolchildren to study hard for three years like a day.

"I got it, I got it..."

The father and son embraced each other and wept. Graduates who pass the Tongsheng Examination can be called Tongsheng, and are officially recognized by the Taiping Road. Once they become adults, they can go to various township pavilions to serve as officials.

Becoming an official can improve one's conditions a lot, not only with a salary, but also with a certain amount of tax-free land.

Chen Sheng raised his drooping head and followed the sound to look at Zhao Kang who was crying not far away.

He knew Zhao Kang, who was his first friend in the workshop.

Back then when he came to the academy alone, Zhao Kang was the first person to talk to him.

Zhao Kang told Chen Sheng that his hometown was in the Taihang Mountains, and his ancestors seemed to have lived in the Taihang Mountains for generations.

Although life was difficult at first, it was still manageable, but when the Taihang gangsters broke out, everything changed.

Zhao Kang's mother died in the bandit chaos in Taihang. His father took him to hide in Tibet and joined the team of Taihang Yellow Turbans. He also entered the relatively safe Banyun Valley.

Later, many things happened, many things that Zhao Kang didn't know about, anyway, in the end he followed his father and the Yellow Turban Army out of the Taihang Mountains, and settled down in the eldest son city.

Zhao Kang's father, Zhao Yuan, was originally a soldier in the Yellow Turban Army. It seems that when he was conquering Yang Feng, he was seriously injured.

If the screening was done according to the regulations, Zhao Kang would have decided that he would not be able to enter the Meng School, but after all, the Meng School was run by Taiping Dao. Even if those wounded soldiers who fought for Taiping Dao were retired and turned into field soldiers, Xu An did not forget .

As a child of a military household, Zhao Kang entered the Meng School in this way.

Zhao Kang, who entered the Meng School, is the hardest person in the whole school.

Chen Sheng sighed in his heart, he was happy that Zhao Kang's efforts had achieved results, and he knew how much effort Zhao Kang had put in behind his back.

Although it is the last of all the winners, it is a good thing to be able to win.

The voices of reports sounded again and again. Although there were many people in the square, the voices of the reports were not low, and each person who reported was not only the Yellow Turban soldiers who were in charge of delivering the message, but also the people waiting in the square.

The position where everyone stood was also an area that had been designated by the Yellow Turban Army in advance.

Therefore, whenever a student's name was mentioned, the Ti Qi of the Eagle Wolf Guard could quickly locate the student's location, and then take him to the open space set aside in advance in front of the government office to wait.

The reporting is still going on, and joy, anger, sorrow and joy are being staged everywhere.

The schoolchildren whose names were not read and their adults were frowning and disappointed, while the schoolchildren whose names were spoken were overjoyed and elated, and many of them cried with joy.

"Qian Jin, the first class of the second character school in Tunliu City, the [-]th, can be promoted to the county school!"

"Eldest Son City C Character Academy..."

……

The sound of the report keeps ringing, and after a while, the top [-] have been read
"Meng Zhu, the [-]rd class in the second class of the Jiazi Academy in the eldest son city, can be promoted to the county school!"

In the academy, he has two friends, one is Zhao Kang, and the other is Meng Zhu.

Chen Sheng searched through the crowd, and finally found Meng Zhu among the crowd.

Meng Zhu stood beside his father. His father laughed happily, and Meng Zhu's face was also full of excitement at this time.

It seemed that Meng Zhu had spotted Chen Sheng. Chen Sheng saw Meng Zhu raised his hand and waved it towards him.

Chen Sheng breathed a sigh of relief. Both of his friends passed the exam, and he was relieved.

Meng Zhu was an outstanding person. Although he was smart, he was not as hard-working as Zhao Kang. Chen Sheng was really worried that Meng Zhu would fail the ranking. After all, Meng Zhu had learned from the past.

After the expansion of enrollment in each workshop, there are [-] students, divided into four classes, with about [-] students in each class, and exams will be held every semester.

Meng Zhu used to get only middle grades in the exam for two consecutive semesters. Based on this grade, it is absolutely impossible to go to school in the county. However, this semester, Meng Zhu also seemed to understand that it can't go on like this, and started to study hard.

Unexpectedly, Meng Zhu actually got the [-]rd place in the exam.

"...The tenth place, rated as the second class, can be promoted to the county school!"

Chen Sheng's heartstrings were always tense, the registration was coming to an end, and he had already begun to read the top ten candidates, but he hadn't arrived yet.

Sitting beside him, Chen Yu's complexion gradually became solemn, and Ge Zhou was not as calm as before.

"Du Shi, the first class of the Gaoducheng Tingzi Academy, the third place, can be promoted to the county school!"

Chen Sheng clenched his fists tightly, he didn't believe that he would fail...

"The Firstborn City Jiazi School——"

Chen Sheng suddenly raised his head, he heard his own workshop.

"The first class, Tian Guang, the second place, rated as the second class, can be promoted to the county school!"

Chen Sheng's heart skipped a beat. Tian Guang was a student who was on par with him in Jiazifang. He entered school a year earlier than him, and he had already learned the content of the county school.

"Chen Sheng, the second class of the Jiazi Academy in the eldest son city, the first case of the high school, rated as the first class, and entered the county school!"

"it is good!"

Chen Yu slammed the table and stood up abruptly, his face flushed and his body trembling.

The people around were also attracted by the loud noise, and they all looked over.

There was a lot of voices, and Chen Sheng's mind went blank. He only saw people approaching constantly beside him, with countless mouths opening and closing in front of him, but he didn't know what these people were talking about.
