However, the sixth target marks the boundary of Divinity Transformation Realm spells; even with their exceptional skills, they can’t make their spells pierce through a hundred miles!
The twelve Scholars stepped down from the altar, passing by Chen Shi, greeting him one after another.
"Instructor!" "Instructor!" "Instructor winning three rounds in a row!"
Chen Shi watched them leave.
The Scholars who ascended the altar afterward brought waves of shock; though in the Nascent Soul Realm, their strength was comparable to top Divinity Transformation Realm experts!
Moreover, these individuals often ca from the countryside, without backgrounds or prestigious family nas, their parents fard or ran small businesses in rural areas, and they themselves engaged in humble professions like Talisman Master or Pill Master carpentering.
They even surpassed many young mbers of small Families!
What shocked the examiners even more was that there were too many Scholars like this!
In the past, just one or two such rural Scholars would be considered remarkable, and they would be placed in important positions.
But now, there were already dozens, and their numbers were rapidly increasing!
These Scholars, whenever they stepped down from the altar, would pass by Chen Shi’s side, respectfully calling Instructor!
"They are the Scholars Chen Shi brought to the Western Capital!" soone exclaid.
Chen Shi was quite moved; this scene made him happier than when he scored the highest in the imperial examinations, winning three categories!
These Scholars who walked with him to the Western Capital in this grand exam did not bury their talents, did not disappoint their elders’ expectations, and this imperial examination would leave a glorious page due to these shining impoverished students!
He smiled, thinking, "What’s the point of one person being the top scorer?"
Bringing two or three hundred Scholars together, to collectively beco Advanced Scholars, squeezing the young mbers of the Families down, now that’s aningful!
At this ti, he sensed a pair of eyes focused on his back. Chen Shi turned to look, eting the scion’s gaze.
These eyes were cold, filled with chill, without any intent to draw him in, instead full of wariness and apprehension.
Chen Shi smiled slightly, disregarding him.
Suddenly, all around there was an uproar, with many Scholars, examiners, and people outside standing up.
So people activated Heavenly Eye Skills, others raised Bright Mirrors, and so directly sprouted a third eye on their foreheads or eyes on their two hands to look afar at the hillside, examining carefully.
"Soone hit the target from a hundred miles away!"
"Not from a Family!"
"It’s a girl, very beautiful!"
The crowd exclaid.
Chen Shi looked, and Hu Feifei stood valiantly on the altar, her face showing pride.
"Feifei sneaked in?"
Chen Shi was stunned, thinking to himself, "Did Uncle Hu really know the dignitaries of the Western Capital and smuggled her in?"
Finally, it was the turn of Chen Shi’s group of Scholars, including the scion and Zhang You among them.
Chen Shi stood on the second altar, looking at the target a hundred miles away, activating the Heavenly Eye Skill, the target a hundred miles away was clearly visible.
The scion was on the first altar, Zhang You was on the third altar.
Suddenly, the scion raised his hand, firelight filled the sky, sweeping across, burning down the targets along the way, the first and second targets were all destroyed, sweeping through like a tempest, directly reaching the sixth target a hundred miles away!
On the hillside, twelve yellow flags were raised.
The scion stepped down from the altar, calmly saying, "Chen Shi, I hit the target for you, so you don’t have to trouble yourself."
Chen Shi watched his silhouette, the scion felt the murderous intent in his eyes, so intense it made him extrely tense, his back taut.
The scion broke out in cold sweat, and his walking beca unnatural, his steps beca strange and twisted.
"Substitute exam doesn’t count."
At this ti, the voice of the Vice Minister of Rites sounded, shouting, "Chen Shi must retake the exam."
This shout scattered Chen Shi’s killing intent, he withdrew his gaze, glanced at the Minister of Rites, suddenly raised his hand, countless stones in the field soared into the sky, whistling away, directly hitting the target a hundred miles away, piercing through one target after another, none missed!
Chen Shi stepped down from the altar, on the hillside, one yellow flag after another was raised high.
——End of the month, asking for monthly tickets!
