Chapter 160: Competition in the Palace School



Three days passed quickly for others, but for Liuying, it was the longest period of time in her life.

Under the scorching sun, every inch of her body seemed to be being tortured. Every time she thought she was free, someone would come to extend her life. She was truly unable to live or die.

This was the case with Liuying, and the big snake beside it was not much better. The families of the victims of Chuxi vented their grievances on the snake, which had been pierced through seven inches and was already covered with wounds.

The prison cell with the holes filled in, the county government office moved to a new location, and a fire with an extremely bad smell also brought the matter to an end.

The Imperial Academy in the capital has already split into two factions. One faction is those who will go to Linjia Village to protect Lin Tiantian, and the other faction is the hard nail in the Imperial Academy and wants to go against the Master.

Today was the day Han Zhengfei had reached the end of his patience. When the stubborn people refused to cooperate with Lin Tiantian's work for the nth time, he lost his temper. "Look at you guys, you do nothing all day long and even cause trouble for others. What kind of ability is that? How about we have a competition? Let's see who the school should listen to."

"Let's compete, but we can't just compete on what you're good at. You put out three, and we put out three." Hard-Nailed Head sniffed and continued, "If you lose, take this brat and get out of the palace school."

"Princess Yongqing's status as a teacher can be considered noble after all. What makes him so qualified? How can he be qualified to teach us here?" A tough guy echoed, so arrogant that people wanted to slap him.

Lin Tiantian was unmoved, but she was very angry with Lin Zihan who came with her. She deeply understood how much the children in Linjia Village cherished the opportunity to study. And then look at this place... It's really hateful!

"Okay, then tell me what you're going to compete in. Do you want me to give you some time? Go back home and memorize some lessons today?" Han Zhengfei patted his chest. Although he didn't have any academic knowledge, his teammates did! That was enough!

The hard-headed man shook his head, his heart overflowing with joy. He was filled with great pride. "Since you're sending three people each, we don't need to take advantage of you. We'll see after lunch."

Han Zhengfei is such a fool! There are actually some educated people among them! How can someone from a small village really be compared with them? How is that possible! A lean camel is bigger than a horse. Even if it's a competition of knowledge, they can't lose!

"Master, what are we competing for?" Thinking of slapping those dandies in the face, Han Zhengfei felt that the chicken leg in his hand was particularly delicious.

Lin Tiantian calmly swallowed the food in his mouth, then slowly said, "What do you want to compete in? It's up to you."

"If you ask me, we will compete in arithmetic, knowledge, and finally common sense." Han Zhengfei said with a smile, as if he had already seen how to win!

Arithmetic is a sure win, let alone knowledge; how could a bunch of idiots lose? As for common sense, they have no idea.

"Brother Tiantian, when it comes to competing in knowledge, I'll take over!" Lin Zihan was full of fighting spirit, with the brightness and vigor of a young girl.

There were naturally people watching the right and wrong in the palace academy, for example, the old man with white beard. After getting the news, the old man with white beard walked into the palace while stroking his beard. Since he spoke well of Princess Yongqing, his relationship with His Majesty became much closer.

"Your Majesty, Lin Tiantian is still young after all. How can you just gamble like that..." The white-bearded old man slapped his thigh and wailed. He looked a little helpless, but in his heart he just wanted to find a thigh to hug.

Rong Chen knew everything. He put down the memorial in his hand and stood up. "Then let's go and take a look. As the saying goes, there is no construction without destruction. I guess Tiantian must be pushed to the limit."

"Your Majesty is right. The children in the palace school are really naughty." The white-bearded old man agreed seriously. If he hadn't wanted to take special care of Lin Tiantian, he really didn't know that this would be the case.

Lin Tiantian chose knowledge, arithmetic and common sense, which was very positive, while the hard-core guys chose martial arts, dice and cricket fighting. Everyone who heard this shook their heads and said it was ridiculous.

The first subject to be competed was decided by drawing lots. Han Zhengfei drew the first subject - martial arts.

The tough guys were the famous playboys in the capital, the kind who were famous for their brute force and who didn't know how to control the severity of their blows.

Seeing that no one took the initiative to go forward and the other side was about to start shouting, Han Zhengfei gritted his teeth and mustered up the courage to walk to the competition stage. The worst that could happen was a beating...

But the second he stepped onto the stage, he felt a little deflated. He had been beaten by the opponent, but he couldn't show it. He could only sob in his heart: Wuuwuwu, it hurts, Master, Little Master, I miss you...

When Han Zhengfei tried to stand up for the third time, Lin Tiantian spoke first, "We admit defeat. Let's go to the next game."

Mu Fan, extremely anxious but determined to win the battle, stepped forward. He patted his friend on the shoulder, helped him up, and jokingly said, "Your father is a great general!"

"It would be great if the young master was here." Han Zhengfei covered his stomach, grimacing in pain, and ignored Mu Fan's joke, only muttering softly.

The young master was able to fight back and forth with General Bai. If the young master were here, he would definitely be able to defeat the general in one move. There would be no need for him to go up and embarrass himself.

There was no time to recall the first game. The hard-core players who won the first round were in high spirits and couldn’t wait to draw the content of the second game. When they opened the note, they saw that it said “knowledge”.

What was surprising was that, although the candidate sent by Hard Nail answered the questions haltingly, when it came to knowledge, when he asked Lin Zihan in return, Lin Zihan, who was at ease at the beginning, gradually became struggling when the content became more and more obscure.

In the second round of learning competition, Lin Tiantian unexpectedly lost! He lost to the hard-core members of the Gong School! Not only were they upset, but even the old man with the white beard was a little frustrated. He was not going to lose... Then what did he protect? He couldn't protect anything.

"Zi Han, you've done very well." While everyone was still watching the competition, Lin Tiantian found an excuse and went to find Lin Zi Han, who was sitting in a corner outside, propping up her little face and thinking about her mistakes. He said softly, "We have never read these books before. Even if we can't compete, it's normal."

There are always people who are better than you. The foundation of the Palace School is naturally much richer than their school. Even though Sister Wanwan spent a lot of money to find books for the school, there are some rare books that cannot be obtained by just money.

Besides, they have only been in school for a short time, so it is normal that they cannot be good at everything. If he were in that situation just now, he would not be able to win.
