Chapter 115 Sifang Conference Hall (2)(1/2)

The attendant was surprised and asked, "Do you really mean what you said?! This is a test for a thousand years!"

He was afraid that Xiao Jiu wouldn't react, so he emphasized it again.

Xiao Jiu's reaction was mediocre.

"Um."

"Farewell."

He nodded, pulled the two people beside him, and left without a trace of nostalgia. It could be said that he regarded the things behind him as dirt, which shocked everyone.

Do you think they really worked so hard to come to the stage to debate just for the sake of exchanging ideas?

Anyone who is knowledgeable and has studied hard for years wants to become famous and find a good future. This Qianqiu test is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

How sad it is for them to throw away such an opportunity when it comes into someone's hands!

"etc!"

There was a loud shout from upstairs, the door of a small room opened, and a middle-aged man walked out of it.

He quickly went downstairs, strode to the door, stopped in front of Xiao Jiu, and stared at him angrily, his face turned black, as if he was angry.

Xiao Jiu took a closer look and saw that the other person was the gentleman from the academy who had a bad tone next to the dean of the academy.

He also heard people around him calling him "Mr. Jiao".

The other party grabbed the token and couldn't help but stuff it into his arms. He said in an almost vicious tone, "I asked about the admission order for the Qianqiu Examination of Shengxue Palace. There are still some that I can't give away!"

"What others ask for and cannot get, if it is given to you, it is yours, one order for each person, and one order for each person."

The man named Mr. Jiao stared at Xiao Jiu intently, as if he wanted to eat someone, and every word he spoke was so loud that people could hear him clearly.

"Boy, tell me your name."

Oxfam was startled by the opponent's pressing aura. He subconsciously looked at Xiao Jiu and whispered, "Xiao Jiu... why don't you just take it?"

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Mr. Jiao asked Xiao Jiu with sharp eyes, "Your name is Xiaojiu? What's your surname?"

After saying that, he grabbed the pen and ink that the attendant next to him wanted to record. In line with his fast, accurate and ruthless work style, he would finish writing as soon as Xiao Jiu reported his name, and his tone was naturally not much better.

Xiao Jiu lowered his eyes, his face showing coldness for a moment, but he hid his true emotions in an instant.

"Those who get the token must take the test?"

This is not necessarily true, but who in the world would not want to participate after getting the token?

From ancient times to the present, I am afraid that there is only one person, Xiao Jiu, and he does not even want the token.

Mr. Jiao's face turned even darker, but he didn't lie to him. "There is no compulsory requirement. If you get the token, it's up to the candidate whether he comes or not."

oh……

"Xun County, Chenzhou, Xiao Jiu."

Just after Mr. Jiao finished speaking, Xiao Jiu reported his name.

He was very crisp and clear, but his answer was so crisp that people couldn't help but wonder if he would not take the token and not come on the day of the competition, right?

Judging from Xiao Jiu's posture and expression as he calmly put the token in his arms into his sleeves, this is most likely the case.

Mr. Jiao was so angry that he tightened his hand holding the brush almost to the point of breaking it. If the dean hadn't given instructions, he wouldn't have bothered to invite Xiao Jiu to take part in the exam.

"Years."

"fifteen."

With a "pop" sound, Mr. Jiao quickly wrote Xiao Jiu's message, closed the booklet, turned around and left without saying much, which could be said to be a vivid display of his disgust for Xiao Jiu.

Xiao Jiu moved her eyebrows and no longer cared about the other party's reaction. She pulled Oxfam and Xiao Ying aside who had not yet reacted, and left directly.

Xiao Jiu moved his eyebrows and no longer cared about the other party's reaction. He pulled Oxfam and Xiao Ying aside who had not yet reacted and left directly, letting the people behind him guess his identity.

"Tsk, he's another genius, he's only fifteen years old and he's already trying his best."

"Oh, how many people want to get in but he still refuses?! I can't figure it out... I can't figure it out..."

These two people expressed the same emotion, and many people were confused.

"Xiao Jiu? I have never heard of this person's reputation before. What's so great about him that he can directly get today's Qianqiu trial admission order?"

"I don't know. I have never heard of this person's reputation. Could it be... that he is a child of some big family?"

"So what, the Qianqiu Examination cannot be entered based on status. In civil and military competitions, only those with real ability can win the title. It is useless to rely on status."

Someone echoed what the previous person said.

"That's true, but my surname is Xiao. Could it be that he is a descendant of the Xiao family in Guangping?"

"I don't know, it shouldn't be. Haven't you heard that he was born in Xun County, Chenzhou?"

"That shouldn't be the case. I've never heard of any Xiao family over there. Could it be that they are actually from a humble background?"

Some people speculated that the voice became quieter.

Several people on the left and right looked at each other, and their eyes coincided with the same meaning. Maybe they really guessed it.

Gongsun Sheng's ears hurt from being left alone in this noisy environment, so he simply left.

In fact, he didn't care about Xiao Jiu's background. He felt it was boring to listen to those people's speculations.

If he truly recognized Xiao Jiu as his friend, he would be willing to make friends with her even if he was a beggar.

Here, the three people walking towards the Post Office in the setting sun had a look of fatigue on their faces.

This first day in the royal capital can be said to be fulfilling and colorful.

Xiao Ying and Oxfam faced each other, looking at the long wooden order in their hands.

After thinking for a while, Xiao Ying soon raised her head and asked, "Brother, are you really going to take part in the Qianqiu Examination?"

Xiao Jiu never likes to compete with others. Furthermore, what can participating in the Qianqiu Examination bring to him?

So, he said, "I won't go."

"oh……"

After hearing this, Xiao Ying expressed that she understood. In fact, from the bottom of her heart, she really wanted to see what the Qianqiu Examination was, but with her little literary talent, she probably wouldn't be able to qualify for the competition.

Although she didn’t know how the person who gave Xiao Jiu this token could tell that Xiao Jiu had extraordinary literary talent, Xiao Ying thought with bright eyes that her brother Xiao Jiu was indeed the best!

When he returned to his residence, Xiao Jiu randomly put the token in a wooden box, and there was probably no use for it.

But no one expected that the horse fell off the horse and was slapped in the face so unexpectedly.

On this day, Mr. Qingxi, who had been recuperating in the post house for two days, proposed to visit an old friend. Naturally, his disciples accompanied him. The person he visited turned out to be the dean of Wenshengxue Palace - Kou Huainan, dean Kou.

It wasn't until Xiao Jiu entered the Wensheng Academy and met the old man that he had to admit that the world is really small and they met again.

Looking at the two disciples standing there dumbly, Mr. Qingxi frowned, "How come you don't know how to be polite?"

Oxfam hesitated, and greeted Xiao Jiu at the same time, saying, "Dean Kou is well."

Mr. Qingxi also said with a slight smile at this time, "These are my sixth disciple, Lux Shi, and my ninth disciple, Xiao Jiu. You should know about the other disciples."

In previous correspondence between the two of them, he had mentioned several of his disciples.

Oxfam: If I had known earlier, I shouldn’t have come with you today.

Who knows why his teacher didn't take Yu Luo and Xun Jian with him, but brought him and Xiao Jiu with him instead.

Perhaps it was because the two people had gone missing early in the morning and couldn't find anyone, so Mr. Qingxi took them with him.

"Haha..." Dean Kou smiled when he heard this and called out warmly.

"I have met these two disciples of yours before."

Mr. Qingxi was stunned.

Have you seen it?

When did you meet?

How is that possible?

Then I heard Dean Kou say slowly, "Two days ago, two of your disciples just entered Wewen Shengxue Palace as students. If you don't believe me, just ask them."

The smiling expression on the old man's face looked a bit like the humor of a fox when he was doing mischief. He was sinister and narrow-minded. He sat aside and watched the show between Xiao Jiu and Xiao Jiu.

Sure enough, when Mr. Qingxi heard this, the smile on his face immediately disappeared. He understood that the two of them had caused trouble without his knowledge, and raised his eyebrows at the two disciples who were standing with their hands hanging down.

, with an unclear tone, "What? Are you dissatisfied with being a teacher and want to join someone else's apprenticeship?"

Xiao Jiu's mouth twitched.

"...No, this fact is a misunderstanding."

"This, how dare this disciple dare? Teacher, misunderstanding, misunderstanding..."

A drop of cold sweat slid down Oxfam's forehead.

Then I heard Dean Kou say in a calm tone, "Your young disciple got a Qianqiu entrance examination token in the Four Directions Hall, but he doesn't seem to want to participate."

"snort."
