The next morning, Wen Zhimiao woke up and found herself hugging Shi Wanyue tightly again. She scratched her head in confusion, as she was not the kind of person who liked to sleep while hugging something.

I didn’t like to hug the pillow before, why do I always like to hug Shi Wanyue?

If she keeps doing this, will Shi Wanyue feel uncomfortable sleeping and won't pay attention to her anymore?

When Wen Zhimiao was daydreaming, the maid came over to remind her that it was time to get up.

The maid's name was Lan Zhou, and the name was given by Wen Zhimiao. When she was ten years old, Su Qingluo asked her to re-select a few maids. Some of the maids who served her before were too old and should be promoted. Some, although not very old, were not very suitable to be Wen Zhimiao's personal maids because they were not smart enough.

In addition, a few people of the same age are also needed to serve.

Lan Zhou was selected from that batch.

There was another one named Xiangnan, who was also selected and stayed in that batch.

Lan Zhou stood outside the screen and called Wen Zhimiao softly, "Your Highness, it's time to get up."

"Yeah." Wen Zhimiao responded softly, and Lan Zhou fell silent again.

Wen Zhimiao kissed Shi Wanyue, but Shi Wanyue didn't wake up yet. Wen Zhimiao let her go gently and got out of bed carefully.

When they got outside the screen, Wen Zhimiao whispered to Lan Zhou, "Don't disturb my sister. If she doesn't wake up when the time comes, call her. But usually she will wake up on her own."

Lan Zhou didn't say anything, but just nodded slightly to indicate that he already knew.

Since she had to invigilate the exam today, she naturally had to wear court dress. Lan Zhou helped her change. The dress was complicated and it would take Wen Zhimiao a bit of time to put it on by herself, so she decided not to make things difficult for herself.

After getting dressed, Wen Zhimiao went to have breakfast and then went directly to the examination room. When she arrived, the candidates had not yet entered, but the staff were coming in and out.

No one expected Wen Zhimiao to come at this time.

"Your Highness." The person in charge of this event looked terrified when he saw Wen Zhimiao coming over.

"Yeah." Wen Zhimiao nodded slightly.

"Why did your highness come so early?"

"Can't come?" Wen Zhimiao asked back.

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant." The official almost broke out in sweat on his forehead.

"It's still early, Your Highness may have to wait for some time."

"Nothing, you guys are busy, I'm just taking a look." Wen Zhimiao looked at him with a smile.

The man felt even more pressured by her gaze.

Wen Zhimiao didn't care about her. He just let them continue to be busy while he wandered around like an idle person.

But because she was watching, the others felt more pressure to work.

Fortunately, Wen Zhimiao is not here to find fault. He just wants to take a look and will not tell you how to work.

When the time came, candidates entered the venue one after another.

Young geniuses like Wen Jiuzhao and Shi Wanyue are really rare. Most of the candidates are in their forties, and the age difference between men and women is not that big.

After all, to reach this final step, one has to go through many years of exams, and there are not so many young geniuses.

There are young people among this group of candidates, but the youngest is in his twenties, and there are not many in their thirties.

The exam officially began. Wen Zhimiao looked at the candidates with a serious expression, which still looked a bit intimidating.

Compared to the excessive quietness of the literary test, the martial arts test was much more lively.

Although there were not many civilians watching, many generals and officials were also watching.

Wen Jiuzhao and Su Yubing were also there. Wen Jiuzhao came with the Minister of War, while Su Yubing naturally came with Nuobu and Gesan, otherwise she would not be qualified to come with her official position.

Su Qingluo and Yun Zhou sat in the main seats and watched the competition on the arena.

This was not Yun Zhou's first time watching the martial arts examination, and she was familiar with the entire process.

In previous years, not many women participated, after all, the martial arts examination still requires a very high level of strength.

There are quite a few women who have reached this stage this year.

People used to say that broad shoulders and thick waists were not good-looking, but later people gradually discovered that being tall and strong was an advantage in itself, and beauty was not that important.

Women can be beautiful or not, and those who are born strong can naturally compete with men in strength.

It’s just that in the past many such women were labeled as ugly.

Then the people of Lulin Academy told the world a cruel fact: few people would require men to be beautiful.

Of course, beautiful people, regardless of gender, will always receive more preferential treatment. It is human nature to love beauty, but it is not wrong to be ugly, so there is no need to worry about it.

With the existence of the Red Tassel Army, some women began to exercise their own strength.

Therefore, in every martial arts examination, you can see more women than before.

This year, including He Yuanyao, there are fifteen in total, and they all look quite powerful.

Yun Zhou and Su Qingluo sat together. She leaned slightly towards Su Qingluo and said, "Su Qingluo, can you beat them? They look stronger than you."

"Why should I be able to beat them?" Su Qingluo was puzzled for a moment. She was an emperor, why did she have to fight every day?

"No, I'm just asking out of curiosity."

"If you say that I am inferior in a pure competition of strength, but in actual combat, as long as strength is not a complete crushing, skills are still useful." Su Qingluo explained to Yun Zhou.

"Oh, so you can win?" Yun Zhou asked again.

Su Qingluo didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You will know when you see for yourself. You will know whether A Yao can win or not."

"Too."

Yun Zhou pointed at the tallest and strongest woman and the tallest and strongest man. They looked about the same height and build. "Who will win?"

"I don't know. I don't know their strength." Su Qingluo really couldn't answer Yun Zhou's question. After all, neither of them had shown their strength, so how could she know.

"Okay." Yun Zhou didn't ask any more questions because the competition had officially begun.

Gesang looked around curiously, and felt a little disappointed when he didn't see Wen Zhimiao: "Lord Su, His Highness is not coming today?"

Su Yubing naturally knew what she was thinking: "No, His Highness is invigilating the written test today."

"Your Highness is so capable." Gesan is young, unlike Wen Zhimiao who has been exposed to government affairs since childhood. Nuobu dotes on her extremely and lets her do what she likes if she doesn't like those things.

Therefore, she was not very clear about the apocalypse.

"Your Highness is naturally powerful." Su Yubing smiled and didn't explain too much to her.

However, Nobla stopped Gesan and stopped her from asking any more questions.

Gesan didn't know, but she knew very well that this Crown Prince of Tianqi was in no way inferior to her mother, the Queen. Not to mention completely conquering all parts of the south, even this time in Yunjing, he had tricked people from all countries, which was definitely not something an ordinary person could do.

Now that Donglan has been at war with Tianqi, and Beirong and Donglan have developed a rift, they will not come to Donglan's aid in the short term.

A prince of Lu Jin died, but the matter could not be traced back to Tianqi, and he was even blamed by Tianqi. He was simply at a loss.
