Chapter 67: Accept Smilingly

”Fang Zhengzhi!” Meng Yushu tightened his fists. A cold glint flashed in his eyes. ”Entering the First-Class Roll? Hmph! Let me see how much further you can go!”
Meng Yushu huffed coldly, turned around and left.
”Huh? Young Master Meng is going to leave just like this? Hey… Young Master Meng watch out!” As Fang Zhengzhi looked at Meng Yushu leave, a concerned look instantly appeared on his face.
Meng Yushu didn’t even bother to turn back his head, and continued to walk away hurriedly! Watch out? I think you should be the one who will have to watch out?
As he thought, Meng Yushu suddenly skidded.
”Aiyo!”
Crying out in fear, his body leaned forward exaggeratedly. Flying forward, he landed face-first onto the ground.
”I already told you to watch out, sigh…” A long drawn out sigh came from Fang Zhengzhi, then slowly placed the fruit that he had skinned into his mouth. Biting down, the sweetness was incredible...
After a moment, the examinees finally recovered from their shock.
”Brother Li, I heard you are going to finish drinking the River of Trust?”
”I believe Brother Zhang’s taste is a little more exquisite…”
Instantly, the examinees began to tease, and the crowd’s gaze quickly landed onto those two people who talked big.
”Fraud!”
”There is definitely some problem with the examination paper!”
”How can it be like this! He obviously didn’t make the roll; how can it suddenly be added in? That’s right, this is impossible!”
Under the gaze of the crowd, the two looked at one another and hurriedly found a logical explanation to the problem. Because, other than this reasoning, they simply couldn’t think of any other reason for Fang Zhengzhi to enter the First-Class Roll.
A person who had never entered a Hall of Dao entering the First-Class Roll of the theory examination?
I don’t believe, even if I die!
”Brother Li is right, let’s wait till the second round of theory examination, this Fang Zhengzhi will definitely fall!”
”Brother Zhang, I support you! Unexpected luck cannot last long, only real power will persevere!”
The two’s words were quickly resonated by the crowd. A bunch of examinees who missed the roll instantly began to make noise once again and continued to harp. But, nobody dared to make any further public pledges.
At this moment, Li Zhuangshi had also shifted his gaze away from the roll stone, but a glimmer of shock remained in his eyes. Looking at Fang Zhengzhi, he sighed inside. Thinking of his eight tedious years of studying, he was only able to enter the Second-Class Roll in the county examination.
Who would have thought that Fang Zhengzhi, a person who didn’t even enter the Hall of Dao, would actually enter the First-Class Roll with luck and self-studying?
Heaven wasn’t fair!
Similarly, he believed that Fang Zhengzhi was exceedingly lucky, and there was no relation to his abilities whatsoever.
Fang Zhengzhi didn’t bother to pay further attention to the crowd’s discussion. Humming a little tune along the way, he walked leisurely towards the inn. Power? I am the power!
A fake document became a real one?
Ha ha ha… the ancient people are indeed sincere and wouldn’t bully me! When the fake becomes real, it is both real and fake! Between real and fake, who can differentiate?
…
The second round of the Law of Dao theory examination was the day after the release of the result.
When Fang Zhengzhi entered the venue, he didn’t notice Meng Yushu and started to guess. That guy indeed had his examination qualification forfeited?
As he thought of that, he grew delighted.
The second round of theory examination had different questions as compared to the first. If the first round was described as the theory behind the Law of Dao, then the second round could be described as emphasizing the usage of the Law of Dao.
Furthermore, the direction of the questions was more flexible and practical.
Other than a few summaries and explanations of texts, a few military matters were added in. For example, during military movements, what should one do when a mountain is encountered, or when a river is encountered etc.
Furthermore, at the end, there was even a mini battle formation illustration.
The timing was also two hours, but the difficulty level virtually increased by many times.
But, to Fang Zhengzhi, it was the complete opposite. The first round of the theory examination required discussing the texts, and too many areas required writing.
On the other hand, the second round emphasized thinking.
Especially the last battle formation illustration, was an extremely simple snake formation.
