The two brothers of the Ran family were always cautious during the trial, otherwise Su Lin would find clues. The purpose was to observe Su Lin's current strength and then kill him with one blow during the state trial.

"Shichang, Su Lin is indeed not simple. He can even write novels. Now he has won more than 2,000 soldiers during the trial, and will follow him in the illusion of the state test. At that time, we must also think of strategies and kill these soldiers of his! " Ran Shigang said thoughtfully.

Ran Shichang waved his hand and said, "Not hindrance! Haven't you seen the Taoist arts in our Taoist books? No matter how many soldiers there are, we are not afraid. Moreover, this time, not only are the scholars and candidates here competing with Su Lin, but also a mysterious semi-saint family. I only received the news yesterday and came here for Su Lin. I learned about the state examination the next day... The child of the semi-saint family distracted Su Lin's attention, and the success rate of our sneak attack was even higher..."

It turned out that Ran Shichang had also received news that the children of the semi-saint family were going to challenge Su Lin. This was exactly what he wanted. After two confrontations with Su Lin, Ran Shichang was already very afraid of Su Lin's strength. Therefore, if he wanted to get rid of Su Lin, he would not confront Su Lin head-on.

The best way is to hide in the dark and let other scholars who challenge Su Lin be the first to attract Su Lin's attention and energy. Then, Ran Shichang himself suddenly came out at the moment when Su Lin was most relaxed and weak, giving Su Lin a fatal blow.

"Su Lin, just wait! The person who is against our Ran family has never ended well..."

Putting away the golden Taoist books on the table, Ran Shichang smiled sinisterly, as if he had seen Su Lin die of being killed by the heart and vomiting blood.

In the next two days, everything in the academy was calm. All scholars and candidates seized the last two days, either recited the meaning of the scriptures, trying to further enrich their own thoughts. Or seized the time to purchase and add literary treasures to enhance the power of their own thoughts.

Su Lin's days have been very monotonous these two days. Every day, he went to the study of Shoujishan in the hospital to find out if he had come back, and then he trained the pet New Year and the Little New Year that he had just conquered in his room.

After all, although the Nian Beast was recreated by Su Lin, it still contains his essence and blood. However, this is the bloodline of an ancient ferocious beast, a Nian beast born from the negative thought "old". On several occasions, Su Lin discovered that Xiao Nian's behavior was uncontrollable. He revealed the nature of the ferocious beast, and even swept the desk into two pieces with his tail.

Fortunately, Su Lin took out the pinyin word "Xin" in time, and using new ideas can effectively curb and control the behavior of the Little New Year. Once the Little New Year is disobedient, Su Lin will release a trace of "new" thoughts and punish the Little New Year well.

"Xiao Nian, have you heard it? Today is the state trial. You may encounter any dangers. Don't lose your chain like in the past two days. If you dare to be lazy and don't do your best, be careful that I will force you to eat the whole word "new"..."

Finally arrived at the Lichunzhou test day, Su Lin got up early and released the Nian beast Xiaonian. He pointed at its horn and shouted a lesson.

Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo w

Xiaonian nodded aggrievedly, his small eyes were black and greedily slashing in the air with his little hooves.

"I understand! If you perform well today, I will give you the word "old" for a few days!"

Through these two days of training, Su Lin learned about the love of the New Year's character "old" and the fear of the new word "new". Therefore, he used these two pinyin holy characters, one reward and one punishment, and the ferocious beast's character was trained to be submissive.

"I don't know what Ji Yuanshou is doing. It took so long to go out. Could it be that I knew that I wanted to ask him for the horns of the Nian beast, and I deliberately avoided me?"

After taking Xiao Nian back into the novel order, Su Lin cleaned up and walked out of the wing room and took the scholars and candidates from Jian'an Mansion to head towards the examination room.

The examination room for the state examination was also arranged in the government office, with the prefecture governor and the temple supervisor as examiners. Pang Shihua, the prefecture governor of Jianzhou, had seen it last time. He made a special trip to Su Lin to send the horns of the New Year beast to Su Lin and helped him create the pet Little New Year.

Unlike the county and government examination candidates, the candidates in this state examination are all based on various government offices and colleges, with a unified scholar class leader as the leader. Of course, there are also many scattered scholar candidates who do not belong to the court, and they will form their own teams and wait in front of the government office.

"I'm lucky, Su Lin, I don't seem to see any children from the semi-saint family coming to participate in the state examination."

Among the scholars in Jian'an Mansion, Su Lin stood first, and Hong Liyu followed closely behind him. Hong Liyu looked around, observed for a while, breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Su Lin.

"It seems wrong, Li Yu, look over there, there is a black and white sedan chair carried by four powerful Niu Barbarians of Kong Wu, and came over..."

Su Lin pointed out to Hong Liyu and saw that there was indeed a sedan chair slowly coming towards the government office in the distance of Dongshi Street.

The scholars and candidates from other government colleges also discovered this black and white sedan chair. Some people seemed to have recognized the origin of the owner of the sedan chair and exclaimed one after another.

"Black and white sedan chair, is this... a member of the Zou family from the Yin-Yang Family's semi-saint family? Could it be that the temple supervision this time was from the Zou family?"

"No! Judging from this momentum, it will definitely not be the supervision of the temple. It should be a scholar candidate like us, but... the Zou family is a semi-saint family of Yin and Yang family. Do their children still need to participate in the imperial examination?"

"I understand! The Zou family's children must be for Su Lin. With Su Lin's genius reputation, it will definitely attract the attention of the children of the semi-saint family. But... I wonder who the Zou family's genius scholar will be?"

...

Those who can pass the county examination and become scholars are not stupid, so the candidates present guessed that the Zou family members in the sedan were probably coming for Su Lin.

"Yinyang Zou Family, is it... Zou Ziqi?"

Seeing this black and white sedan chair, Hong Liyu instantly thought of a person and exclaimed, "Hasn't this person been practicing in the depths of the wilderness? He wouldn't easily return to the pass, and... it seems that this person wants to accumulate strength and break through from a scholar to a Jinshi in one breath! Why did he come to participate in the state examination!"

Hong Liyu knew that Zou Ziqi was the genius son of the Zou family's scholar-in-law. The result also proved that Hong Liyu's guess was correct. The sedan stopped and a very gentle scholar came out, but his face was extremely pale and his clothes were also black and white.

"Su Lin, this person is Zou Ziqi from the Zou family of the semi-saint family. He is sixteen years old this year and a scholar in the middle of the year. After that, he has been practicing in the wilderness. In fact, his strength has long been enough to be promoted to Juren under the saint power of the Yin-Yang family of the Zou family. However, Zou Ziqi's heart is big enough. He wants to break through to the scholar and Juren to the Jinshi in one breath, so he is not promoted. Unexpectedly, he will come to participate in the state examination for you today..."

Hong Liyu explained with a serious look, which shows that she attached great importance to Zou Ziqi, even a deeper level than that of Ji Yu.

"Oh? Li Yu, a child of the Yin-Yang Half Holy Family, from your tone, Zou Ziqi shouldn't be a simple person. I also saw a very strange power of thought from him."

Su Lin was not careless, and narrowed his eyes and looked at Zou Ziqi. However, with Su Lin's current literary position, he could only see a very vague aura of thought, one black and one white, which was constantly changing.

The Yin-Yang family's ideas are mainly the Yin-Yang theory and the Five Virtues End-Original Theory. The Yin-Yang theory believes that the two oppositions and transformation powers of things themselves can be used to explain the laws of development and change of things.

The theory of the Five Elements believes that all things are composed of five elements: wood, fire, earth, metal and water. There are two laws of mutual generation and mutual victory, which can be used to explain the origin and change of all things in the universe.

The Yin-Yang family, the master of the great Yin-Yang family, combined the two, and based on the theory of mutual generation and victory, the attributes of the five elements were interpreted as "five virtues", creating the "five virtues" theory, and using it as the law of the rise and fall of dynasties in history, providing a theoretical basis for the establishment of a new unified dynasty.

"The theory of gold, wood, water, fire, earth, five elements, plus the theory of yin and yang, black and white. Yin and yang schools are somewhat similar to Taoism, but they are very different."

In the Zhihai, Su Lin recalled the general thoughts about the Yin-Yang family, and at the same time, he smiled slightly and looked at Zou Ziqi walking towards him.

"Brother Ji is my strongest opponent in the wilderness. With Tong Sheng's literary position, he can compete with me, a scholar. Not long ago, he participated in the Jian'an Mansion Examination, but he didn't expect... he actually lost to Brother Su. After hearing this shocked news, Zou rushed over and took the liberty to participate in the Jianzhou Mansion Examination, just hoping to have a chance to compete with Brother Su and see Brother Su's great talent!"

With a fan on both sides of Yin and Yang in his hand, Zou Ziqi walked to Su Lin very well and told him what he wanted.

"Haha! It turns out that Brother Zou is here to stand up for Brother Ji. Brother Ji and I are a gentleman's dispute. Similarly, I also hope to have a real and true gentleman's dispute with Brother Zou. Su has long wanted to see the true meaning of the Yin-Yang family. Today I am lucky to meet a legitimate Yin-Yang family descendant like Brother Zou. I am so lucky!"

Since the other party had challenged so directly, Su Lin certainly could not admit defeat, and bowed and smiled with a humble and arrogant look, "However, Brother Ji could not defeat me at the beginning, I guess it would not be that easy for Brother Zou to defeat me!"

"Brother Su is not humble, so I, Zou Ziqi, like to compete with confident Confucian scholars. However, the great way of my Yin-Yang family should not be underestimated. Since Brother Su is so confident, he has to worry that the shadow of failure that will appear after I defeat you will shake the heart of Tao! Haha..." (To be continued...)
