The Grand Scholars were very relaxed and chatted about everything under the sun.
Although the three hundred or so Grand Scholars had fought together for less than three days, because they had gone through life and death together, they had already become true comrades. Their friendship was similar to that of fellow schoolmates, fellow townsmen, and those on the same rank. They were much closer to each other and even joked around.
Some talked about the battle experience, some asked the middle-aged Grand Scholar for advice, and some talked about the affairs of the various countries.
After another two hours, the world suddenly shook.
Everyone immediately realized something and raised their heads to look up.
The Moon Tree's shadow collapsed and turned into countless specks of light that shot out in all directions.
"Humph!"
An angry snort sounded in the sky. A skinny old man shot up into the sky and flew hundreds of miles in an instant. He held an unknown strange book in his hand and threw it into the air. The book covered a thousand miles and rolled gently. More than half of the light from the Moon Tree's shadow was sucked into the book.
The old man reached out and the book returned to his hand.
The old man was too far away from the ground. Even Fang Yun could only see a dot.
Then, the old man looked down and praised.
"Brave and smart, courageous and wise. The three hundred Grand Scholars will go down in history."
After the old man finished speaking, Fang Yun felt that the world was spinning. Then, he instinctively blinked and found that he had left the Grand Scholar Hunting Ground and the Ancient Barren City and appeared in the courtyard of the Cui Family.
Fang Yun remembered that three days ago, he had entered the Kong Shengwen Realm with the Master of the Cui Family and the twenty-nine Grand Scholars of Jingguo and then entered the Ancient Barren City.
At this moment, the courtyard was full of people from Jingguo's noble families and officials. However, there were very few Grand Scholars. Only the Minister of Culture, Kang Ha-chuan, was there.
"Welcome back, Fang Xusheng!" Everyone saluted.
"You're welcome." Fang Yun saluted indifferently. He had seen many things and had a clearer understanding of his identity.
"But … why are the other Grand Scholars lying on the ground?"
Fang Yun looked down and saw that the other twenty-nine Jingguo people were lying on the ground and sleeping. Some people were snoring, some were grinding their teeth, and some were talking in their sleep. It was extremely weird. These people were originally on the verge of death and would not live for more than a few days. Now that the green plague energy in their bodies had dissipated and their skin was ruddy, they were no longer in danger.
The scholars who came to greet him were all confused. Most of them didn't know what had happened.
Fang Yun remembered that the great scholar Ye Ling had said that this matter was not announced. Those who were summoned to the Ancient Desolate City were not allowed to communicate with the outside world. Most of these people did not know, but they should be able to guess that something had happened.
"They were injured during the spring hunt and will recover after a few days of rest. Please send someone to send them to their bedroom."
"I'll go and instruct the servants!" A member of the Cui Family hurriedly left.
"How are you feeling?" Kang Ha-chuan asked with concern.
Fang Yun knew that Kang Ha-chuan must know the inside story. He smiled and said, "Everything is fine. Thank you for your concern."
"That's good." Kang Ha-chuan heaved a sigh of relief and slowly stroked his beard with his hand.
Someone asked, "Fang Xusheng, is there a problem with the Spring Hunt? Is the number of 14 million real? "
"Yes, we were still laughing at first, but the number was too huge and we couldn't laugh at all."
Fang Yun did not get the exact news either. Previously, it was just a guess. Hence, he said, "I don't know either. There might be a result in the end."
As soon as Fang Yun said that, he heard a voice coming from the direction of the Sacred Temple.
"Jingguo's Jinshi is led by Fang Yun. He killed countless demons and barbarians and killed two of the demon Half-saint's avatars with a scheme. Hence, he is worthy of being on the list of 10 million. There is no mistake. This year's Ten Nations Spring Hunt has officially ended. Jingguo is in first place! "
The people of Jingguo were finally relieved. They cheered loudly and celebrated the great victory that had never been seen since the founding of Jingguo.
However, most of the scholars fell into deep thought after the joy.
'The demon Half-saint's avatars?'
"Congratulations, Fang Xusheng!" Everyone congratulated him again.
"It's because of the concerted efforts of the Jingguo Jinshi. I'm just one of them," Fang Yun said humbly.
The scholars present were not fools. If it weren't for the fact that Fang Yun had contributed greatly, Eastern Sage definitely wouldn't have said that he was the Jingguo Jinshi led by Fang Yun. Clearly, something had happened and Eastern Sage couldn't praise Fang Yun directly. Hence, he could only use this method to point out the importance of Fang Yun.
"However, what's going on with the demon Half-saint's avatars? I heard that a large number of scholars have been transferred to the ancient land. Could it be related to this matter? "someone asked.
Everyone stared at Fang Yun.
Fang Yun hesitated for a moment and said, "It's a long story. If it can be announced, there will be news in the 'Wen Pao' in the future."
"That's true. Let's not ask what we shouldn't ask. After all, Jingguo is the winner of the Spring Hunt. The number of Jinshi who are qualified to enter the Imperial Hanlin Palace will increase, and the number of times they will challenge the seven halls will also increase! The number and strength of the Imperial Hanlin Palace in Jingguo will increase greatly! "
"Indeed! In the past, the number of Jinshi who can enter the Imperial Hanlin Palace is ten times more than Jingguo! "
"This is a great contribution to the country!"
Fang Yun didn't want to listen to these people's praises. He said, "You're all too kind. I've been fighting for three days and am a little tired. I'll return to the 'Spring Garden' to rest. Please forgive me."
"You're too kind. Fang Xusheng's health is more important!"
"Yes, yes, yes. Fang Xusheng will go to Ning An County in February to be the acting county magistrate. He must rest well!"
"Take care, Fang Xusheng."
Everyone went out to see him off. They didn't start a heated discussion until they saw Fang Yun get on the Flood Dragon Horse and leave.
At the same time, the demons and barbarians on the Sacred Tree of the Demon Realm were also having a heated discussion, but the atmosphere was different.
The Sacred Tree was another name for Haruki Higashiki, one of the four Moon Trees.
The Sacred Tree was extremely thick. The diameter of the trunk alone was three hundred miles, and the diameter of the tree crown was five thousand miles. It had been transformed by the Sages into a place suitable for living. It was like layers of continents stacked together, and countless demons and barbarians lived there.
Only the most powerful people of the two races were qualified to live on the Sacred Tree.
The Sacred Tree was divided into three levels. The upper level was the Sacred Temple, the middle level was the tribe that handled the affairs of the Demon Realm and served the Sages, and the lower level was the residential area.
There was a clear hierarchy in the Demon Realm. At the lower level of the Sacred Tree, there was a place called the Saint District, where the children of the Sages lived.
In the tradition of the Demon Realm, the number of children was one of the standards to measure the strength of a demon and barbarian. Even the Sages were no exception, and they were proud of having many children.
Half-saint barbarians could live for thousands of years. They had at least a thousand children, and at most ten thousand children. The most indulgent Demon Saint even had a hundred thousand children. They were called the stud horses of the demons.
In the center of the Saint District, there were four huge stone tablets, each of which was ten stories high. They respectively displayed the contents of the Great Confucian Hunting List, the Great Scholar Hunting List, the Hanlin Hunting List, and the Jinshi Hunting List.
Countless demons and barbarians were gathered in front of the four stone tablets. They widened their eyes and looked at the scene that they had never seen before.
Fang Yun's name was ranked first on the Great Confucian Hunting List!
Even the name of the first Great Confucian of the human race, Yi Zhishi, was suppressed by Fang Yun!
Fang Yun's literary position was only that of a Jinshi!
After Fang Yun's bloody name, the bounty continued to increase. Floating astronomy.
