After witnessing the deaths of the hundreds of Demonic Commanders, everyone cupped their fists in gratitude towards the ancient sword.
The ancient sword trembled slightly and emitted a crisp sword hum. Then, it suddenly flew forward and streaked through the air above the forest where the Demonic Eagles had appeared.
"Boom …"
Fang Yun looked down and saw that the ancient sword had clearly flown through the air, but it had plowed a deep trench in the forest. The trench continued to extend, kicking up dust and snapping trees. Faint cries of Demonic Barbarians and Demonic Barbarians could be heard.
After a while, the dust settled. A deep trench that was nearly one kilometer long, ten feet wide, and ten feet tall appeared in the forest.
Countless Demonic Barbarians and Demonic Barbarians had died in the trench.
The airship continued forward.
"This ancient sword is so powerful," Fang Yun praised.
Dong Wencong looked towards Fang Yun and smiled. "What do you think? Was I right?"
"Lady Dong, you have foresight," Fang Yundao said.
"The Half-saint sealed the mountain, making it difficult for many Demonic Barbarians to leave. These Demonic Barbarians are probably hiding outside the Five Demon Mountains."
Fang Yundao said, "These Demonic Commanders can't be the only ones hiding in other places. The Demonic Barbarians only sent Demonic Commanders to kill me. They're probably probing."
"It seems so. But we can't rule out the possibility that they're just sending these Demonic Commanders to their deaths to make us careless."
"Since the Notre-Dame sent people to protect us, they naturally won't leave. Everything they've done is futile."
"With the Great Scholar Ye Hongyu here, those clowns are nothing," Lu Hongyi said.
Fang Yun suddenly understood. So it was the Great Scholar Ye Hongyu.
After the thousand-year truce ended, large numbers of Demonic Barbarians and Demonic Barbarians appeared from the Five Demon Mountains and attacked human cities. Large numbers of human scholars went to meet the enemy.
Mount Thunderstorm was located at the edge of the Li Demon Mountains. Due to the climate, it was very close to one of the exits of the Demon Realm. Ye Hongyu led the Notre-Dame's group to Mount Thunderstorm to exterminate the Demonic Barbarians.
After arriving at the main peak of Mount Thunderstorm, Ye Hongyu actually couldn't get up. Every day, he would recite the scriptures of the saints. Demonic Barbarians and Demonic Barbarians within three hundred kilometers would definitely die.
Whenever lightning or powerful Demonic Barbarians or Demonic Barbarians came, Ye Hongyu would kill them.
Ye Hongyu had been overseeing the main peak of Mount Windthunder for ten years, yet not a single Demonic Barbarian could make him stand up.
Ten years later, the three Demonic Beast Kings led thousands of Demonic Beasts to surround and kill Ye Hongyu. Ye Hongyu stood up and said, "Listen to thunder for ten years, I shall test my sword against you."
Amidst the lightning and thunder, an ancient sword surrounded by lightning instantly killed a greater demon monarch.
The other demons fled frantically. Since then, no more powerful demons and barbarians dared to invade the human world.
Later on, the main peak of Mount Thunderstorm was named Thunderstorm Peak, and the nickname of Thunderstorm Great Scholar Ye Hongyu was passed down.
Fang Yundao: "It's said that Great Scholar Ting Lei is not only good at arguing, but the war poem that Ting Lei created ten years later, 'Thunder Slaying Chant' is also very powerful."
"There is indeed such a thing." Feng Zimo said.
"Every Confucian is a legend." Fang Yun couldn't help sighing as he recalled the biographies of those Confucians.
"That's right. There were no great Confucian scholars who could sit at home and become saints, so their path of the Divine Path was widely known. Even those great scholars who are not good at fighting have killed countless demons and barbarians, "Dong Wencong said.
"Let's talk about something else. It's disrespectful to talk about such things with a Confucian scholar beside us. Why don't we talk about the fine wine of the Great Origin Mansion and Fang Wenhou's Imperial Examinations? "Dong Wencong said.
Fang Yun said, "Everyone, let's stay at my place today. Fang Yun's place is too small. It's been a long time since anyone lived there. If we stay at my place, we can take care of each other. "
"You're rich. Of course we'll eat at your place when we go to the Great Origin Mansion! How can the relay station be more comfortable than the Fang Residence? "Yu Xingshu laughed.
"That's fine. I'll stay at Uncle's place too." Fang Yundao.
"Since the Imperial Examinations are approaching, let's talk about it. Let's talk about Fang Wenhou's essay. By the way, Magistrate Dong, I heard that you once gave Fang Wenhou some pointers on policy? "
Dong Wencong's gaze drifted. Then, she shook her head and said, "There's no such thing. I did exchange policy with Fang Yun, but I definitely didn't give him pointers. Fang Yun's policy is better than mine. I'm far from being able to guide him. "
Fang Yun was stunned. Dong Wencong had given him pointers before, so why didn't she admit it? However, after thinking about it, he vaguely understood.
Feng Zimo laughed. "Don't tell me you wanted to guide Fang Wenhou, but realized that he wrote better than you, so you changed your mind and exchanged ideas?"
"That's definitely not the case!" Dong Wencong's attitude was firm.
Feng Zimo knew how to behave. When he saw that Dong Wencong's attitude was different, he immediately realized that he shouldn't pursue the matter. He turned to look at Fang Yun and said, "You chose the right time to suppress the entire prefecture. Just like the legends say, Fang Zhenguo is blessed by the heavens. This time, the heavens are helping you in the Imperial Examinations."
"What do you mean?" Fang Yun asked curiously.
"You don't know?"
"I've been studying at home for the past few days. Other than my bad friends at the River of Enlightenment and Ceng Yuan, who frequently sent me letters, no one else contacted me." Fang Yundao said.
Feng Zimo laughed. "Most of them aren't from Jiangzhou, so they naturally don't know. This year, many of the Elementary Scholars in Jiangzhou who are good at writing poems have already given up on this year's Imperial Examinations. Many of them thought that since you have suppressed the entire prefecture, if they were to snatch your position as Top Scorer, they would be letting down the people of Jingguo. Hence, they had to give up on the examinations. "
Fang Yun paused and felt that this was ridiculous. He said, "Official Feng, are you joking? That's impossible! "
"Why is it impossible? After you suppressed the entire prefecture, a few geniuses who wanted to compete with you for the position of Top Scorer voluntarily gave up. These few of them were confident that they would pass the Imperial Examinations and would even be in the top ten of their respective prefectures. However, they respected you and gave up on competing with you for the position of Top Scorer. For example, Huang Hexi and Cai Yingda. Have you heard of them? "
"I've heard of them. They are the cream of the crop amongst the Elementary Scholars. The reason why they are taking the Imperial Examinations now is because they want to be the top High Scholar. If not, they would have become High Scholars two or three years ago." Fang Yundao said.
"The few of them really didn't want to compete with you. However, not everyone is like the few of them. Instead, they thought that they were afraid of you. In the end, many of the Elementary Scholars who wanted to use their poems to improve their Imperial Examinations have given up. As for the Elementary Scholars who were good at political theory, not only did they not give up on the examinations, many of those who did not want to take the examinations have also applied in the last few days. "
Fang Yun did not know whether to laugh or cry. He said, "How can this be? Poetry, political theory and political theory are the three subjects. Each subject can only have one A, but there can be many B's. The rest of the people have no reason to give up on the examinations. "
Feng Zimo laughed and said, "Jiang Zhou's Elementary Scholars who are good at poetry or political theory, which one of them does not have the ambition to get 'A'? If it weren't for you, who would dare say that they have no chance of getting 'A'? "
"Zimo is right. If it were me in the past, I wouldn't have competed with you. After all, there is a huge difference between having a chance and not having a chance at all." Dong Wencong said.
Fang Yundao said, "Let's not talk about poetry for now. I don't think my political theory is very famous."
Dong Wencong glanced at Feng Zimo and said, "I have to thank you for this. Ever since you took the Elementary Scholar examination, I have been praising your political theory. I have been praising your political theory all the way until now. I even used your previous practice works as a model for the students of the Jade Sea Prefectural Institute of Literature. Originally, it was not widely circulated. However, after your literary theory dominated the entire prefecture, it became a big deal. Not only did the Institute of Literature and the College of Literature in Jiang Zhou use your political theory as a model for teaching, even the Prefectural Institute of Literature in other prefectures have come to ask for it. Even the officials of other countries have sent people to buy it at high prices. "
Yuanjun laughed and looked at Fang Yundao who was in a daze, "I have arranged your political theory collection in chronological order. When those teachers saw your political theory collection, they exclaimed that your improvement was unimaginable. They all tried to persuade their students not to compete with you for A grade."
Dong Wencong continued, "There is another reason why those Elementary Scholars who are good at political theory gave up on the examination. A few days ago, the Xun family was defeated by you. Some of them were not convinced and said that you were not proficient in political theory. In the end, someone said in front of everyone that your political theory was most likely the 'Rites of Indecent Conduct' that was given to the great Confucian scholars a few days ago. In a short period of time, the Elementary Scholars in Jiang Zhou who are good at political theory immediately expressed that they would not compete with you for the position of Top Scorer."
Fang Yundao thought to himself, could this be the legendary 'meat pie falling from the sky'? He originally did not want to compete for A grade for poetry and political theory in this High Scholar Examination. Now, even if he did not compete, there was a high chance that he would be in the top three!
However, anything could happen before the results were released. Fang Yundao said, "No matter what, I will do my best."
Dong Wencong laughed, "It's a pity that time is too tight. Otherwise, I would be like Zimo and praise your political theory as much as I can. Then, I would send your political theory practice to the various academies and academies. Then, those Elementary Scholars who are good at political theory would withdraw."
Feng Zimo said, "Fang Yundao's political theory is not known yet. Those Elementary Scholars who are good at political theory will definitely participate in this year's High Scholar Examination. Perhaps there will be a fierce competition. It's a pity that the High Scholar Examination takes three days. We all have important positions and cannot stay in the Great Yuan Mansion all the time. Otherwise, we would definitely wait until the results are released and until Fang Yundao leaves Book Hill. "
Lu Hongyi, who rarely spoke, said, "Xibi, from tomorrow onwards, as the Governor of Jiang Zhou, I will secretly patrol the Great Yuan Mansion and the military affairs of the counties. You cannot reveal my whereabouts."
Chen Xibi was stunned. He immediately lowered his head and saluted, "This subordinate understands."
Fang Shouye immediately put on a flattering smile and said, "Lord Governor, I'm the Jade Sea Prefecture's general, which is adjacent to the Grand Origin Prefecture. Brother prefecture armies should learn from each other. I'm willing to follow Lord Governor and learn from the Grand Origin Prefecture's prefecture army."
"Okay," Lu Hongyi said.
The other officials could only stare. Lu Hongyi was the highest official in Jiang Zhou's military and could go wherever he wanted. Li Wenying could not control him. However, the other civil officials had Governor Ge above them and Li Wenying above them. It was difficult for them to stay in the Great Yuan Mansion for long.
Dong Wencong gritted his teeth and said, "My Jade Sea Prefecture is Jingguo's largest commercial prefecture. We have been sending money to the imperial court and other prefectures, but we do not have much left. Tomorrow, I will go to the Governor. The buildings in my Jade Sea Prefecture have been in disrepair for a long time. I will not leave without ten million taels of silver! "
Feng Zimo immediately said, "Duke Jian Mei has gone to the Notre-Dame to prepare for the Great Confucian Scholar position. I have to discuss some important matters with my colleagues in the Great Yuan Mansion. I will also need to stay for five to six days."
Thus, everyone showed off their abilities and spoke of their methods of staying in the Great Yuan Mansion.
Fang Yundao pretended not to hear or see anything.
"People's morals are not what they used to be." Fang Shouye shook his head. The other generals also sighed. The civil officials were so angry that they could only roll their eyes at them.
With Great Confucian Scholar Ye Hongyu around, the demons did not launch any more sneak attacks.
