If I am not a Confucian saint, I will set off a revolution

"Tongsheng test?"

Lin Ke was stunned for a moment.

It may have only been a few months since he got here, but he felt like it had been a long, long time.

Winter is very short, and spring is about to begin with the Children's Student Examination, followed closely by the Literary Examination, the Scholarship Examination, and the Scholar's Examination.

At that time, countless people will pass the Tongsheng Examination and then obtain the identity and status of Confucian scholars. At the same time, the imperial court will instill literary spirit into these people who have obtained the title.

To put it simply, it is to turn an ordinary person into a Confucian scholar in the first realm of Confucianism and Taoism.

Those who pass the literary test go directly from the first level to the second level of scholar.

The Shikao examination is instilled into the third realm of Confucian scholars.

The scholar test is to instill the scholarly state.

The best person in the scholar examination is called the number one scholar.

Of course, even if you obtain a meritorious degree, it will only give you a sense of culture, fame, and wealth.

The improvement of realm does not mean the improvement of strength.

Therefore, although the Tongsheng Examination is held at the beginning of every year, the Literary Examination, the Scholarship Examination and the Scholar's Examination are held every two, three and four years.

So that readers can digest their gains and consolidate their knowledge.

Examinations will overlap every two, six, or twelve years.

Next year happens to be the year of the big exam.

The children's examination, the literary examination, the scholar's examination and the scholar's examination all happened to be held within one year.

"Yes, Tongsheng test."

Ye Jun nodded: "You can also directly participate in the scholar examination, or enter the palace to accept the No. 1 Scholar examination."

"Lin Ke, the title of No. 1 Scholar does not apply to every major exam." Speaking of the exam, Wang Lin also looked serious: "The last time the No. 1 Scholar was Ye Jun, that was a hundred years ago."

"A hundred years ago, Lin Xuanji launched the new way of rituals and music, and people from all the major holy realms returned to the realm. Within the Divine State, there are Taoists and Buddhists once every twelve years, but my brother has not delegated new number one places. .”

"Now, the era of great struggle is approaching, and the number one spot is open. Next year, starting from the Tongsheng Examination, there may be countless people entering it to obtain the title."

"If you take part in the childbirth examination, you will definitely face fierce competition. If you don't take part and go straight to the palace exam, you will inevitably be criticized."

Previously, Lin Ke had been directly approved by the Holy Emperor to enter the palace examination.

The Holy Emperor said that since his old man said that Lin Ke was qualified, Lin Ke must be qualified.

If Lin Ke hadn't won the first prize in the palace examination, people in the world would definitely not say that the Holy Emperor was dim-sighted, but would only say that Lin Ke "was lost to everyone" and failed to look down upon him.

However, if Lin Ke started from the Tongsheng Examination step by step, went all the way to the Scholar Examination, and then was selected for the Palace Examination, even if he did not get the title of Number One Scholar in the end, he would not be criticized.

"Of course I'm participating!"

Lin Ke was a little helpless: "Although it is already in the second level now, it is still literary!"

Lin Ke also knew what Wang Lin and the others were worried about.

The most important thing is that he is worried that Lin Ke will not be able to pass the Tongsheng test and will be severely hit when the time comes.

If it was the original Lin Ke who had been chopping firewood since he was a child and had not read many books, it would indeed be possible.

But now that Lin Ke has traveled through time, he has not only seen many test papers of top scholars from various dynasties in various museums, the Internet, and other places in his previous life.

Even Lin Ke has read a lot of books in the past few months.

Therefore, for him, basically these exams should not be a worry.

It’s not necessarily the best, but there’s still a certain degree of certainty that you’ll pass.

"You should think about it again." Ye Jun said solemnly: "It is easy to accumulate literary spirit, but difficult to gain a little understanding. The imperial examination is just to instill literary spirit."

Literary spirit can grow slowly through accumulation. Although it is slow, it grows.     However, enlightenment and the like may trap a person's life and prevent him from making progress.

"I'm actually quite lacking in culture..." Lin Ke said weakly.

"Why do you lack literary talent? You usually don't have any sense! You..." Ye Jun suddenly came to his senses mid-sentence and thought of the poems Lin Ke had written before, and then fell into silence.

"If it's you, it seems that you really don't lack insights..." After Ye Jun said this, he didn't want to talk anymore and seemed to be hurt.

Lin Ke didn't know how to comfort him when he saw this.

If he were to accumulate the power of change at the same rate, it would be a bit difficult to even accumulate it to the third level.

Although he has reached the middle stage of the second realm through repeated training, it is still too slow.

If he can be infused with literary energy and transformed into the power of change, his accumulation speed can be faster.

Of course, his case is probably the only one in the world that is special.

It is normal for people like Ye Jun and others to accumulate to the top and then realize something by chance while reading a book. It is normal to break through to the next level.

"However, if I were to participate, wouldn't it be a bit too bullying?" Lin Ke scratched his head: "Aren't the people participating in the childbirth examination just some children?"

The Tongsheng Examination is actually a test for teenagers aged eight to sixteen years old.

Those who are seventeen years old or later cannot take the exam.

Although Lin Ke is only sixteen years old, he is now famous and is the speaker of the Great Wilderness Council without rank in the imperial court, competing with a bunch of children...

However, when Lin Ke said these words, Wang Lin and Ye Jun's expressions became even weirder.

Ye Jun's expression was even more hurt, and Wang Lin also looked strange and said: "Aren't you sixteen years old?"

Lin Ke suddenly understood and said hesitantly: "How about... I go to take the childbirth examination first?"

"Go!" Wang Lin crushed a walnut and threw the walnut kernel into her mouth: "Don't think that the Tongsheng test is easy. Next year's test is probably very difficult."

"Difficult?" Lin Ke raised his eyebrows: "What do you mean?"

"According to my intuition, there will be many disciples from aristocratic families taking part in the Tongsheng Examination next year," Wang Lin explained.

"A wealthy family." Lin Ke frowned and understood what Lin Ke meant.

Some aristocratic families will hide their geniuses in the snow, and wait until the number one spot is released before letting their geniuses come out to take the exam.

If there is no place for you, you will still take the exam at the age of 16.

And now, since next year is another big exam, many talented people who have been hidden will be released in the Tongsheng Examination.

"I just have to bite the bullet." Lin Ke had no intention of backing down.

He stands on the shoulders of giants.

Countless famous figures, sages, talented scholars in previous lives are behind him, and he has no fear.

"But I also heard the news..."

Ye Jun's voice came faintly: "Winter is coming, and a friend invited me to attend a poetry gathering to enjoy the beautiful scenery together."

"Poetry party?" Wang Lin was a little surprised: "Who else would invite a great talent like you?"

Apart from anything else, as the number one scholar, Ye Jun must have two skills.

As for Lin Ke?

"I've never been to a poetry gathering." Lin Ke looked a little curious.

She used to be a prostitute, but later became the chairman of the Great Wilderness. No one invited her regardless of her status.

"You can go with me and see how good the people who take the childbirth examination are this time." Ye Jun said.

Lin Ke nodded slowly: "Okay." (End of chapter)
