Breakfast ti.
"Uncle, is the examination list going to be released later?" Jiang Yiming asked.
"Hmm!" Jiang Ning nodded.
"Uncle, shall we go together later?" Jiang Yiming asked again.
Then he added: "I’ve heard the list will be posted at quarter past ten in the morning!"
"I won’t go!" Jiang Ning shook his head: "You can just co back and inform !"
"Okay, Uncle!" Jiang Yiming nodded.
Afterwards.
After lunch, Jiang Ning returned to his courtyard to continue practicing.
The black light and crimson roll, invoking the power of heaven and earth into his body for marrow refining.
...
In the blink of an eye.
It was already noon.
Jiang Yiming entered the courtyard, seeing Jiang Ning surrounded by what seed like a furnace, emanating a terrifying heatwave.
The surging heatwave distorted the view.
Jiang Yiming imdiately cald his excited heart, slowed his movents, and quietly left the courtyard.
Half-past eleven.
The scorching sun poured into the courtyard like molten gold.
[Inner Elixir Cultivation Skill EXP 1]
"Hoo—"
Jiang Ning slowly withdrew his cultivation, gently exhaling a mouthful of impure energy.
The steaming red mist around him condensed into several rays of rosy light, entering his seven orifices with his breath.
He raised his eyes to look at the virtual-interspersed panel in the void.
[Skill]: Inner Elixir Cultivation Skill (Great Success 2237/10000)
After glancing at his panel, he imdiately got up and closed it.
The daily effort ultimately transforms into visible progress, which makes him very satisfied.
In one’s life, do not fear hardship, do not fear diligence.
Fear only that effort has no reward, and most fear a future one cannot see.
That is the greatest despair.
But this panel shows him that every bit of his effort will not be in vain.
It also shows him the infinite possibilities of his future.
...
A mont later.
"Uncle!"
Jiang Yiming appeared before him with excitent all over his face.
"So excited? Did you gain a title?" Jiang Ning asked.
"Yes!" Jiang Yiming nodded heavily.
He continued: "Uncle ranked fourth in the literary examination, receiving a comprehensive evaluation among the top!"
"And you?" Jiang Ning asked with a smile.
He was not surprised at all about having acquired the title of Scholar.
The Child Test was too simple for him!
Obtaining a title was certain.
However, only ranking fourth was sowhat unexpected.
By his estimation, he should have topped the list!
Considering mory, what scholar could compare to his unforgettable mory?
And the Literary Examination Child Test relied entirely on mory.
But he was too lazy to bother about the distinctions within it.
In the world, how could there ever be absolute fairness and justice?
Compared to the military examination, the literary examination is simpler with regards to relationships and corruption.
Unlike the military examination, where the first three tests are held under the public gaze; if one succeeds, one succeeds, if not, then not.
There is absolutely no room for tricks.
At this mont.
Upon hearing Jiang Ning’s inquiry.
Jiang Yiming nodded repeatedly.
"Uncle, I also succeeded! Though rated lower in the top, I also gained a title! From now on, I hold the status of Scholar."
"Not bad!" Jiang Ning imdiately nodded, showing approving expression.
A fifteen-year-old Scholar.
No matter how you put it, extrely excellent.
Even without !
This kid, relying on the title of Scholar with him, should be able to support this family!
Looking at Jiang Yiming, slightly shorter and more slender than him, Jiang Ning felt a bit emotional.
"Uncle, in sequence, soon a courier should co with good news!"
"Our Jiang family has gained two Scholars, and uncle, a literary and martial Scholar! My father and mother will surely be overwheld with joy later!"
Upon hearing this.
Jiang Ning smiled.
He recalled how Jiang Li, as an elder brother, shielded and supported him like a father.
Quite agreeing with Jiang Yiming’s words.
Then he spoke: "Indeed, it is a great joy, so you can also take a good rest these days, find three to five friends and go out to relax!"
Hearing this, Jiang Yiming shook his head.
"Uncle! You are so diligent; I take you as a role model, how can I slack off? I have decided, next I will focus on martial practice and study, striving to obtain the title of Military Scholar next year, while also taking the Cultured Scholar examination!"
"In this way, I can barely keep up with uncle!"
Saying this, Jiang Yiming clenched his fist, eyes extrely determined.
Jiang Ning shook his head.
"No need to put too much pressure on yourself!"
"With here, you can choose a life you prefer!"
Upon hearing this.
Jiang Yiming looked at Jiang Ning seriously with raised head.
"Uncle, this is the life I prefer!!"
"I love reading books, I also love practicing martial arts!"
"Reading makes wise, martial arts make strong!"
"Between the two, I can feel endless joy!!"
Listening to Jiang Yiming’s words, Jiang Ning could not help but look at him differently.
He realized he had perhaps always underestimated this nephew.
Jiang Yiming’s mind is far stronger than he had realized.
At this mont.
"Aren’t you both coming for dinner!" Liuu Wanwan scolded angrily.
As the voice sounded, they saw the figure of Liuu Wanwan appear.
"Mother, I’m coming!" Seeing Liuu Wanwan appear, Jiang Yiming answered obediently.
Jiang Ning also responded.
...
Afternoon ti.
The courier brought the good news of Jiang Ning and Jiang Yiming.
A family gained two Scholars.
Even though Jiang Li and Liuu Wanwan already knew the news, they still were extrely excited.
Jiang Ning was equally in good spirits.
Because according to his previous test as Dongling County’s substitute Inspector.
He needed to et Fifth Grade strength, and pass the examination as Scholar to be considered passing the test.
Next was the conversion to formal status.
