Imperial Examination? This was a very new thing for Qin Shaofeng. Whether it was in the Small Thousand World or in the Great Thousand World, it was the first time that Qin Shaofeng encountered it. Therefore, he was very interested. Therefore, he asked North Vanquishing Wang Yuan Chen to write down the names of Qin Shaofeng, Qin Tianzhi, and Blood Curse. Then, he followed the old eunuch who came to announce the imperial edict and set off for the Yuan Mo Dynasty.
However, although it was the first time that Qin Shaofeng encountered the Imperial Examination, it was an extremely common thing for all the Dynasties. It was held every year, whether it was in the Great Thousand World or in the Small Thousand World. It was an important means for the Dynasty to select talents. It should be known that the development of a Dynasty did not only rely on generals. All kinds of talents were needed.
The aspects of a Dynasty could be said to be extremely complicated and involved all kinds of things. Therefore, the number of talents needed was extremely large. Because of this, all the Dynasties would hold an Imperial Examination every year to select talents. Most of these talents would be used to expand the Dynasty. For example, if the Dynasty conquered a city, the management of the city would need professional talents. The management of the subordinate counties of the city would also need professional talents.
Whether it was in the Great Thousand World or in the Small Thousand World, the Imperial Examination was generally divided into a Martial Examination and a Literary Examination. The Martial Examination was naturally for the Dynasty to select soldiers who could expand the territory of the Dynasty. The Literary Examination was naturally for the Dynasty to select the talents of management, strategists, and other professionals. Those who participated in the Imperial Examination could sign up according to their specialties.
Of course, if you thought that you were a genius who excelled in both the literary and the Martial Examination, you could also sign up for both the Literary Examination and the Martial Examination. Once you entered the top three in both the Literary Examination and the Martial Examination, you would definitely become an influential figure in the Dynasty. At that time, your future would naturally be incomparably bright. However, such talents were few and far between.
All the practitioners were extremely responsive to the Imperial Examination because once they could enter the Dynasty, they would be able to enjoy the blessings of the Dynasty. Naturally, it was extremely beneficial for their own cultivation. Therefore, every time the Imperial Examination was held, it would be extremely lively, and countless practitioners would participate.
The Imperial Examination of the Yuan Devil Dynasty was held once every ten years. Any practitioner could participate, and there was no restriction on cultivation. However, during this process, the Crown Prince and the three Princes had the right to recommend talents, and the talents recommended by the Crown Prince and the three Princes naturally received more attention. Now, Qin Shaofeng was taking advantage of North Vanquishing Prince Yuan Chen to participate in this Imperial Examination.
Of course, with Qin Shaofeng's flamboyant personality, he naturally signed up for both the Literary Examination and the Martial Examination. In Qin Shaofeng's opinion, he was naturally a genius who excelled in both the literary and the Martial Examination. It should be known that Qin Shaofeng had read a lot when he was a child. If it were not for what happened later, he would have entered the Imperial Court as an official. As for his own cultivation, Qin Shaofeng was also very confident. Although he was not invincible, it should not be a problem for him to enter the top three of the Martial Examination.
The territory of the Yuan Devil Dynasty was extremely vast. It was the sum of the territories of the four surrounding Empires. Therefore, the distance from the North Vanquishing Prince's Mansion to the Central Imperial City was too far. However, the Yuan Devil Dynasty also sent a huge warship. Starting from the North Vanquishing Prince's Mansion, they traveled all the way south at an extremely fast speed and picked up all the people who signed up for the Imperial Examination.
Along the way, the number of warships continued to increase. In the end, it increased to over a hundred warships. In each warship, there were tens of thousands of practitioners participating in the Imperial Examination. That was more than a million practitioners, and this was only the practitioners from a quarter of the Yuan Devil Dynasty's territory who were going to participate in the Imperial Examination. If the practitioners from other territories were to be added together, the number would be enormous.
However, it was normal when one thought about it. In the Vast Thousand Worlds, anyone with a little aptitude could cultivate. Therefore, practitioners were everywhere. Moreover, the Imperial Examination did not limit one's cultivation. Therefore, one might be selected if one was outstanding in some aspect. Once selected and entered the Yuan Devil Dynasty, one would be able to enjoy the blessing of fate energy, which would double the speed of cultivation. Therefore, who would not want to try their luck?
The journey to the Imperial City of the Yuan Devil Dynasty was boring. Qin Shaofeng, Qin Tianzhi, and Blood Curse all cultivated in their own rooms. It was not until they reached the Imperial City of the Yuan Devil Dynasty that they finally came out of their rooms. Then, they were arranged to stay in the examinees' residences. Because all the residences were guarded by the soldiers of the Yuan Devil Dynasty, although the practitioners of the Yuan Devil Dynasty all practiced the Devil Technique and were extremely irritable, there were no fights.
When Qin Shaofeng saw the Imperial City of the Yuan Devil Dynasty, he naturally wanted to go out for a stroll. Anyway, no one said that he could not go out, so he went out with Qin Tianzhi and Blood Curse. Because Qin Shaofeng, Qin Tianzhi, and Blood Curse all had the terrifying aura of the Primary Saint Realm, no one dared to cause trouble for them.
The Imperial City of the Yuan Devil Dynasty was extremely vast. It was at least three times the size of the Imperial City of the Great Emperor Qin's Dynasty. Even with so many examinees entering the Imperial City, it did not seem crowded at all. Qin Shaofeng took Qin Tianzhi and Blood Curse for a stroll in the Imperial City. When they were tired of walking, they went to a tavern to have a meal.
Although Qin Shaofeng and the others did not need to eat at their current realm, it was said that the Yuelai Tavern in the Yuan Devil Imperial City was the best tavern in the entire Devil Abyss Continent. There were all kinds of delicacies in it. Even if you wanted to eat dragon meat and phoenix heart, there would be no problem.
Since they were here, Qin Shaofeng naturally wanted to have a taste. So he took Qin Tianzhi and Blood Curse to the Yuelai Tavern. Although the Yuelai Tavern only had five floors, there were many different spaces on each floor. It could accommodate a large number of people, so there was no need to worry about not having enough seats.
Of course, the first floor was the place for ordinary people to eat and drink. The higher the floor, the higher the level and standard. The top five floors had individual private rooms. Qin Shaofeng went directly to the private room on the fifth floor and entered an independent space. Although the area was not big, the decorations were very good. There were even windows that allowed one to see outside.
After Qin Shaofeng, Qin Tianzhi, and Blood Curse sat down, a Ninth Order Saint Venerable Realm waiter came in and introduced the specialties of the Yuelai Tavern to Qin Shaofeng and the others. Qin Shaofeng was also generous and ordered all the dishes. In any case, it did not cost many World Stones. This made the waiter even more enthusiastic.
The common currency of the Great Thousand World was World Stones. Qin Shaofeng was the Emperor of the Great Qin Empire, so he naturally had a lot of World Stones. After ordering all the special dishes in such a generous manner, the waiter naturally thought that he was a fool. Therefore, after ordering the dishes, the waiter first went out and handed the menu to the kitchen. Then, he entered the restaurant and stopped in front of Qin Shaofeng and the others. He said to Qin Shaofeng, "Are you here to participate in the Imperial Examination?"
Qin Shaofeng heard the waiter's words and nodded to the waiter. When the waiter saw Qin Shaofeng nodding, he immediately became excited. He looked around carefully and lowered his voice to ask Qin Shaofeng, "Are you here to participate in the Written Examination or the Combat Examination?"
Looking at the waiter's reaction, Qin Shaofeng felt a little amused. He then said to the waiter, "Both." After hearing Qin Shaofeng's answer, the waiter became even more excited. He then said to Qin Shaofeng, "Would you like to know the questions of the Written Examination?"
The questions of the Written Examination? When Qin Shaofeng heard the waiter's words, he immediately understood why the waiter was acting like this. It turned out that the waiter was secretly selling the questions of the Written Examination. If the officials of the Yuan Mo Empire found out about this, it would be a capital offense. After all, the purpose of the Written Examination was to select talents. If the candidates knew the questions in advance and were prepared, then what was the point of the Written Examination?
However, although Qin Shaofeng looked at the waiter nervously, he didn't seem to be afraid at all. Therefore, Qin Shaofeng said to the waiter, "The questions of the Written Examination? You even dare to sell this? Aren't you afraid that the officials will take your life? That's a huge capital offense. "
After hearing Qin Shaofeng's words, the waiter shrunk his neck. He was obviously frightened by Qin Shaofeng's words, but he still said to Qin Shaofeng, "Sir, you must be joking. If this was the previous Written Examination, I wouldn't dare to sell the questions even if I ate a dragon's gallbladder. However, this time's Written Examination is different. It doesn't matter even if the questions are revealed.
"Oh? If that's the case, then I'll ask around and see who bought the questions. Why would they buy it from you? "Qin Shaofeng looked at the waiter with interest and teased him.
Qin Shaofeng's words naturally caused the waiter to be stunned for a moment. Soon after, a regretful expression appeared on his face. He did not expect that his words would actually have such a loophole that was caught by Qin Shaofeng in an instant. It seemed that this transaction could not be completed. His face was filled with annoyance.
Qin Shaofeng looked at the waiter's expression and smiled. He then said, "Alright, tell me the questions. Here is a high-grade World Stone. Is that enough?" Qin Shaofeng was originally just teasing the waiter. He was still very interested in the questions. What kind of questions were they that they weren't afraid of being leaked?
When the waiter saw Qin Shaofeng toss out a high-grade World Stone, he immediately caught it excitedly. He flipped his hand and a piece of paper appeared in his hand.
