A post-apocalyptic female soul travels back to the War of Resistance against Japan

Today's trial has been used up. We look forward to the next trial participant!

Cheng Ying exclaimed in surprise, "What! There's a limit to the number of times?"

After a while, the mechanical voice sounded again: "Due to the bone age of the trial participants, they cannot use the trial arena for a long time. It is stipulated that those under the age of ten can only lose once per trial. If they pass four trials in a row without losing, they can add one or five trials as the maximum."

Cheng Ying then realized that children under ten years old could pass a maximum of five trials, but if they lost even once within those five trials, their trial would be over.

Cheng Ying came out and checked the time. Wow! Only a little over an hour had passed. This room with its time difference is really great!

Moreover, it honed her special abilities and newly learned skills. She walked to the Spirit Spring Lake, then poured herself a cup of spirit spring water and drank it.

After washing up at the villa, feeling refreshed, she greeted Yun Chuan and left the space.

Seeing that it was still pitch black outside, she lay down on the bed and fell fast asleep.

This time, Cheng Ying didn't get to sleep in peace; she was woken up because they were setting off for Xuan Yue City today.

Moreover, because Lin Zeyang met many more classmates, the group expanded significantly this time.

This time, five more families joined the group, and these five families also hired bodyguards and servants to escort them.

Moreover, they were very lucky and didn't catch the bandits coming down the mountain, so their journey was relatively safe and smooth. These families arrived a day later than Cheng Ying and her group.

Seeing that Lin Zeyang and his family were about to set off, the other five families quickly followed behind, intending to travel to Xuan Yue City with them.

It only takes three to five days to travel from Moyun City to Xuanyue City. However, because there were many of them, Lin Zeyang and his classmates did not travel very fast. So, by the time they arrived in Xuanyue City, it was already the afternoon of the fifth day.

When Lin Zeyang and his group arrived in Xuan Yue City, their first priority was to find an inn to settle down. Because there were many people traveling to Xuan Yue City from various places, there weren't many inns with available rooms.

But they were lucky enough to find an vacant courtyard, which several families rented together. This courtyard was a large one with eight sections.

Fortunately, each family was allocated a small courtyard, and even the maids and servants they brought had places to stay.

After arriving here, Wang Bo and his escort team also had a branch escort agency here, so they went to the branch escort agency first. After the scholars from these families finished their civil service exams, they would escort them back, and only then would their mission be truly completed!

Just after Lin Zeyang's family finished packing their things, several people came in from outside.

They were Zhang Jingyu, Lin Zichuan, Xu Jinnian, Yan Rufeng, and Xiao Pingzhi.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Lin Zeyang invited them into the house, where they sat together and discussed the upcoming scientific expedition.

Yan Rufeng said worriedly, "The competition is fierce this year. I heard that many talented people have come to Xuan Yue City to take the exam."

Xiao Pingzhi sighed, "Yes, I've also heard that some candidates have powerful families supporting them, and they might even resort to underhanded tactics."

Lin Zeyang clenched his fist. "No matter what, we just need to do our best."

Cheng Ying listened from the side, thinking to herself that after so long, she had been using the spiritual spring water to nourish her father's body, so his mind must be different from before. It's just that her father had been studying hard during this time and had never slacked off, so he hadn't realized it himself.

As long as no one cheats, his dad will definitely pass the exam without any problems.

Lin Zeyang said, "Everyone, we've just arrived here today and aren't very familiar with the area yet. Tomorrow we'll go outside and ask around to see who the chief examiner is this time."

"We all hope that the examiners will treat this exam fairly and justly. Our speculations are just that—speculations. Perhaps it's not as sordid as we imagine!"

At this moment, Chu Yu and Ling Zichuan nodded in agreement, and Zhang Jingyu also said, "We must trust His Majesty. He will definitely send a fair and honest official to take charge."

Xiao Pingzhi asked, "Gentlemen, do you know the date and time of the provincial examination?"

Xu Jinnian said, "We arrived quite early this time. It should be another ten days or so before the government office posts a notice to inform everyone!"

Lin Zeyang smiled and nodded, saying, "That's right. Let's ask around and wait about ten days. The government should issue a notice then, and we can inform each other."

Ling Zichuan said, "The content of this exam should still be the same as before: classics, the Five Classics, poetry, essays, and policy discussions."

Xu Jinnian also said, "The main requirements of the interpretation of the classics and the Five Classics are our ability to understand, memorize and apply the Confucian classics, which have fixed formats and norms."

"As long as we study hard and remember what we read and understand thoroughly, that's enough!"

Everyone nodded in agreement, but when they thought about other subjects like poetry and policy essays, they realized that they would face certain difficulties, as they would rely on years of practical experience and knowledge accumulation in various fields!

Lin Zeyang nodded in agreement, "Brother Xu, you truly deserve to be the most experienced one among us. Everyone should thank Brother Xu for his analysis of this exam!"
