The discussion on the ranking board didn't affect the whipping of the scholars at the foot of the mountain.
Starting from dawn until noon, none of the scholars stopped, and each of them broke several whips.
More than half of Kong Weishan's group fainted due to exhaustion, pain, blood, and shame.
More than a hundred thousand scholars fainted at the edge of the plaza.
As noon approached, the scholars of the Zong Family finally couldn't take it anymore. A young scholar suddenly stood up and tore off his tattered white scholar robe, revealing the whip marks all over his body.
It was as if hundreds of centipedes had drilled into his skin, tearing his flesh apart.
He roared, "I am a descendant of the Zong Sheng Family, other than the Zong Family, no one can punish me! Descendants of the Zong Family, stand up and let them know that the Zong Family will never yield! "
"Bastard!" Kong Yingshi's anger had already dissipated, and the whip in his hand slowed down. He was hesitating on how to end it, but upon hearing the words of the Zong Family Scholar, he was furious.
Kong Yingshi rushed up with the whip, and even injected his talent qi into it, lashing out at the Zong Family Scholar while scolding him.
"Descendant of the Zong Family? You are the descendant of the Zong Family! "
"Don't think that I don't know, if it wasn't for your Zong Family Gyeongo sowing discord in the dark, the Kong Family and Fang Sheng wouldn't be in a full-scale conflict!"
"I wanted to give the Zong Family some face, but you came out to pretend to be a demon!"
"Descendant of the Zong Family? Come, continue speaking, continue shouting, let's see if I can punish you! "
"Descendant of the Zong Family? It's you bunch of useless Zong Family descendants and Lei family who have been making things difficult for Fang Sheng, forcing the human race to such a state! If it wasn't for you, Fang Sheng wouldn't have opened the Divine Path so early, causing our Confucian Divine Path to be damaged! If it wasn't for you, Fang Sheng wouldn't have become a Saint right after becoming a Saint, causing our Kong Family to leave Kong City! Today, Old Man is going to whip the descendants of the Zong Family! Everyone, listen up, whip the descendants of the Zong Family! "
The young man was already covered in injuries, and after being whipped by Kong Yingshi, he fell to the ground in pain and soon fainted.
Some of the ancestral clan disciples wanted to stand up after hearing his words, but upon seeing this scene, they were so frightened that they obediently knelt on the ground.
The other Half-saint aristocratic clans didn't dare to offend Zong Sheng, but the Kong Clan and the six quasi-saint aristocratic clans weren't afraid. They completely listened to Kong Yingshi and only picked the descendants of the Zong Clan to beat.
No one could tell whether he was a descendant of the main family or not. They could only tell that he was a scholar from Gyeongo.
Everyone in Gyeongo was in trouble.
The most unfortunate thing was that someone who was already unconscious was woken up by the beating. After being beaten up, he fainted again in a daze.
As a result, the entire arena was filled with the screams of the Gyeongo people.
Seeing that the matter had been resolved, and that Fang Sheng no longer needed protection, everyone shook their heads and turned to leave.
Some returned to their original sea eye, while others entered Kong City for sightseeing.
On this day, all the restaurants, teahouses, and inns in Kong City were full. Some people had no choice but to stay in brothels and pleasure boats.
The huge crowd gradually dispersed. Yan Yukong and the others were still standing at the foot of Mount Inverted Peak.
They were rather sad just now, but now, seeing that Kong Weishan and the others were either unconscious or screaming on the ground, they really couldn't feel sad.
As a result, Kong Detian, Kong Delun, and the others from the Kong Clan decided to host a banquet at night to celebrate today's victory.
Then, they discussed the details of the banquet and almost held a literary meeting on the spot.
It wasn't until noon when all the scholars were tired that they left one after another.
The scholars from the aristocratic clans, who had been waiting, rushed forward and carried their own people back.
Then, it was the aristocratic clans who were in a hurry to rescue the injured.
In the end, there were still 40,000 to 50,000 people lying on the ground. They were either unconscious or in so much pain that they couldn't walk.
Although there were fewer and fewer people watching, there were still many people watching. Yan Yukong and the others finally finished their discussion and prepared for the banquet at night.
Before leaving, Yan Yukong glanced at those people.
These people came from all over the world. They were all relatively young and had lower literary positions.
"Sigh …" Yan Yukong and the others sighed helplessly.
These people were probably the descendants of poor families from all over the world. They were willing to be hired thugs for the aristocratic clans in order to climb up to them.
At this moment, they were even worse than stray dogs.
Yan Yukong said, "Forget it. Delun, you are familiar with this place. You can send people to save them. I will pay for it."
Kong Delun said, "Saving tens of thousands of people will cost more than a million yuan. It's not a small burden for you. I will find people to save them. As for the money, they can pay for it themselves when they wake up. If they don't have enough money, they can put their fingerprints on it. "
"Teach them a lesson today."
Then, the members of the Kong Clan came forward and took all the injured people away for treatment.
The bloodstains on the square were shocking. They looked like crimson rose petals that covered the square.
In the end, many bailiffs came forward to clean the bloodstains on the square.
When everyone confirmed that the Kong Clan was leaving Kong City and returning to Qufu, they couldn't believe it.
No one was stupid enough to think that Kong Weishan and the others were the ones who caused the Kong Clan to leave. It was just an excuse. In that case, the biggest possibility was that Fang Yun came to force the Kong Clan to leave Kong City.
The Hundred Scholars' Caning became the topic of discussion for the entire day. Many people even forgot about the county-level examination.
The county-level examination lasted three days while the county-level examination lasted only one day.
At dusk, the county-level examination was completed.
The examinees from Kong Sheng's literary field handed in their papers and left their respective examination halls. They returned to their respective institutes of literature and walked out from their respective institutes.
As usual, many of the examinees cried as they walked. Some complained that they didn't answer correctly, some said that they didn't have time to correct the questions, and some said that they were too nervous and flustered.
But unlike before, there were more women in the crowd leaving the academies.
The women were divided into two groups. Some of them were extremely excited and chattered. Even those who didn't know each other gathered together and talked about their gains and losses. They didn't care whether they passed or not.
The other group of women cried until their eyes turned red. None of them had undergone any special training for the county-level examination. The county-level examination was too difficult.
After leaving the academies, the examinees found out that Fang Yun was surrounded and someone was trying to stop the county-level examination. All of the women were furious. They didn't care about the results tomorrow and shouted that they would go to Kong City to protect Fang Yun.
After knowing that the matter was over, the women were relieved.
Night fell and Saint Origin World regained its peace.
Following that, news about the examination appeared on the list and diluted the previous atmosphere.
There were a total of seventy-one county-level students in today's county-level examination!
All of them were women!
This number exceeded any other county-level examination in the human race.
Before this, it took many years for a county-level student to appear in the human race. In Jingguo, there was only one such student, Fang Yun. He was known as the person who broke Jingguo's Tian Huang.
Seeing this number, countless male scholars felt uncomfortable.
They had expected that even if there were a few women who were extremely talented, they would be mediocre in other aspects and only know how to write poems.
But this time, there were seventy-one county-level students, which directly overturned their guesses.
There were many hidden dragons and crouching tigers among the women!
Following that, they found a few familiar names.
These county-level students were mostly from the Sage Families, the royal family, or the rich and famous families.
For example, Zhao Hongzhuang from Jingguo and the wife of Half-saint, Yang Yuhuan.
