Just when everyone thought Zou Ziqi was really going to fight Su Lin, and at the first level, Zou Ziqi raised his foot and took a few more steps and walked to a staircase next to him.

"Hehe! Su Lin, you should feel lucky. I did not stand beside you, but chose another staircase. But to be honest, I really want to defeat you in the first level. Moreover, I am confident that I have this strength. But that! In that case, it would make people feel that I, a child of the semi-saint family, are too ungraceful. Moreover, I also want to truly see what is the excellence of you, a genius praised and promoted by the Nine Kingdoms..."

Before standing on another staircase, Zou Ziqi turned his head and smiled at Su Lin, "So I decided that I would keep you going to the end and then completely defeat you. In this way, I think you can lose with confidence, right?"

Zou Ziqi did not lower his voice, but deliberately let everyone hear his words. Therefore, the candidates and scholars present couldn't help but sigh. This is the duel between masters, and they disdain to fight for life and death in this first level.

Especially Zou Ziqi's confident words, combined with his background in the semi-saint family, he obviously suppressed Su Lin in momentum. The name of genius that Su Lin had always established before began to slowly shake in the hearts of all the candidates.

However, in the face of Zou Ziqi's provocation, Su Lin did not have any emotional fluctuations. Instead, he smiled and said to Zou Ziqi simply: "If you don't choose to work with me, Brother Zou, I think... this should be your luck."

Su Lin's meaning is also very obvious. Although he only said one short sentence, he hit the key point and made it clear in a concise way that if Zou Ziqi really dared to choose this ladder, he would be the one who lost.

"Brother Su is worthy of being a family of inherited by the Zongheng family, and his words are very polite! I won't show off my verbal skills with you, and the competition will be started soon. Let's see the truth under our hands!"

Zou Ziqi's eyes narrowed, and he knew that he could not underestimate Su Lin, as it would be easy to capsize in the gutter, so he was so energetic that he no longer hid his strength. He was determined to post the sutras of the first level of the hundred-stage staircase, so he first reached the last level of the staircase, leaving Su Lin with nothing to say.

"Old Lu, you really got it right. Zou Ziqi did not choose to work with Su Lin. He looked forward to their future battles. He just didn't know what kind of tests are implicit in your two landscape paintings?"

Seeing this, the provincial mute Pang Shihua was relieved, and at the same time, he was even more looking forward to the performance of Su Lin and Zou Ziqi.

"Hehe! If Pang Zhou Mu is interested, he can go in and take a look later. Not everyone can come out of my painting world. This has nothing to do with the level of literary status." Lu Qingran said with a wicked smile on his face.

After seeing several powerful candidates such as Su Lin and Zou Ziqi, they all rush to choose other literary ladders. Of course, some candidates who do not believe in evil chose to choose other literary ladders.

In short, a quarter of an hour came soon. All the candidates were ready in front of the corresponding staircase, and a hundred identical staircases had completely different situations.

First of all, it is the Wendi where Su Lin and Zou Ziqi are. No other scholar candidate has the courage to go with them. Because it is almost no different from abstention when they are with them.

Other Wendi where Hong Liyu, Zhao Yi, Ran Shichang and others are located. There are three or five scholarly candidates. In addition to these people, scholarly candidates with a little bit of strength among scholarly candidates will be avoided, and there are not many competitors with the same Wendi.

Among the 100 stairs, there are thirty or forty people. The width of a stairs can only accommodate three people standing side by side at the same time, so these thirty or forty people have to line up in the order they choose. Even so, they are unwilling to choose to join the powerful candidates such as Su Lin.

"Haha! Brother Su, it seems that you and I are still a little lonely climbing the stairs! There is no competitor at all..."

Standing on Su Lin's right hand, Zou Ziqi smiled and put away the yin and yang fans, and said to Su Lin, "I hope Brother Su, your performance will not disappoint me!"

"Brother Zou, too. I hope you can be worthy of this signature of the Semi-Saint Family!"

Su Lin nodded slightly and replied to Zou Ziqi, then looked at Hong Liyu's position on the left with concern. Seeing that there were four candidate competitors beside Hong Liyu, he said, "Liyu, after the start, we will climb together!"

"Don't worry! Su Lin, you have seen me climb the stairs, there is no stairs." Hong Liyu knew that Su Lin was concerned about him, so he said this on purpose, so he nodded and asked Su Lin to feel relieved.

As for the other candidates, they were all nervous. The tide of thought was surging in the sea of ​​wisdom, and they were ready to climb the ladder when they heard the order.

"A quarter of an hour has come. Dear candidates, you can start climbing the stairs now!"

As time came, the provincial governor Pang Shihua gave the order, and all the candidates stepped on the first ladder with a strong momentum.

"The Master said: 'Do not do to others what you do not want others to do to you."

This is the staircase where Su Lin stepped on the first staircase of scripture, which comes from a sentence from "The Analects of Confucius. Yan Yuan".

For this familiar and profound saying, Su Lin did not need the help of the "wordless heavenly book". In an instant, the answer was found in the sea of ​​wisdom. The holy power surged out of the wisdom key, and the literary brush in his hand was also contaminated with the holy power. With a big stroke, he said:

"No complaints in the country, no complaints at home."

The whole process was completed in a flash, and Su Lin had no time to spend a breath.

Similarly, Zou Ziqi, who was next to Su Lin, received the title of the scriptures from "The Analects of Confucius".

"The Master said: 'If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools."

This is a famous saying from "The Analects of Confucius. Duke Ling of Wei". It is not only passed down from the earth and China forever, but also familiar. In the Tianren Continent, it is also a saint's remark that ordinary people can speak casually.

As a semi-saint family, Zou Ziqi, facing such a simple question, naturally did not have any difficulty, and he didn't need to think about it at all. He opened his wisdom and the holy power surged to the tip of Wenbao's pen in his hand, and he wrote the correct next sentence in an instant.

"If you live in this country, you will serve the wise men and those who are good at the masters and those who are kind men."

...

This first staircase examines the most popular quotes and sentences in the Analects of Confucius, so the difficulty is also the lowest. All scholars and candidates can answer it, and they all write very quickly without thinking.

However, there are still many candidates and scholars who are one step slower. The first staircase can only bear ten candidates. The excess number will fall down and lose the qualification to continue climbing.

However, in this battle of every minute, all the scholars, including Su Lin and Zou Ziqi, had no time to care about the situation of others. As soon as they finished writing the first scripture, they immediately raised their feet and stepped onto the second scripture ladder, and then quickly wrote the answer to the second scripture.

"The Master said: A gentleman seeks the way but not the food."

This second sutra is still from the "Analects of Confucius", which is one from "The Analects of Confucius. Wei Linggong". However, the overall difficulty has increased a lot, and the candidates are required to write the next sentences and sentences.

However, this is not a problem for Su Lin at all. As soon as he saw the previous sentence, Su Lin's wisdom automatically thought of the next sentence, and wrote quickly with a big stroke:

"When farming, you are discouraged; when you are learning, you are wealthy. A gentleman is worried about the way and not the poverty."

In writing these thoughts and sentences containing the thoughts of the sages and sages, Su Lin also found that his thoughts became more profound. This is a unique effect in such a tense competition. Once a person's spirit is highly concentrated and tense, his overall body abilities will be improved exponentially. This is a state that is difficult to appear in ordinary reading and writing.

The second staircase of the scriptures eliminated many candidates. However, more candidates stepped onto the higher level of the scriptures. This is a step-by-step climb. Every time you answer the correct answer, you can take a step to a higher level.

The following Wendi Pasting Sutra began to appear other classics besides the Analects of Confucius, "The Doctrine of the Mean", "Mencius", "The Book of Songs", and "Records of the Grand Historian"...

The endless classics of holy words and countless thoughts and principles began to appear in the writings of scholars and candidates. Every time they write a reply to the scripture, they think carefully in their own sea of ​​wisdom. When they write it, their thoughts and holy power are stalemate, and a petal of thought can be formed in the air.

As a result, as the candidates climbed higher and higher, more and more petals of thought appeared in the air. These petals of thought finally fell down, scattered among the people around them, permeating into their minds, inspiring their thoughts and enhancing their wisdom.

This is the benefit of ordinary people watching the state trial. In this way, their own thoughts can be sublimated.

There are a hundred literary ladders, and the more difficult it is, the more you get, and many lost classics have begun to appear. Many candidates have fallen from the air.

However, Su Lin and Zou Ziqi did not have any obstacles. Any questions on the exam were just a breath in front of them. The two of them were almost in unison and headed side by side. The competition was very fierce. As they were about to reach the last few steps of the stairs, who could be the first to step on the 100th stairs?

The people below and the scholars who failed the exam also snatched their hearts and stared at the competition between the geniuses. (To be continued...)
