Ling Qingming seemed to be thinking about something.
Qingzhu Academy places great emphasis on archery, calligraphy and music.
Unexpectedly, when competing in musical instruments, Wei Xi overshadowed everyone else.
Due to the absence of the great general Mu Yunchuan, the students sent by Qingzhu Academy performed well but were not as good as those from other established academies.
As the organizer, it would be embarrassing if there were no outstanding performance in the future.
But then he thought, it was luck that Cuiwei Academy was able to enter the re-examination, and they would most likely lose this round, while his own academy was sure to advance, so there was no need to regard Cuiwei as an opponent and lower the status of his own academy.
Thinking of this, Ling Qingming did not show any abnormality, and soon discussed the result of this competition with several other judges.
Cuiwei Academy won first place in this competition thanks to Wei Xi's outstanding performance!
Wei Xi had set a good example, so of course Chen Cui and the others were very happy. Passing tea and wiping sweat were just basic tasks. Mu Erpang looked at his junior brother's red fingertips and rubbed his hands out of pity.
Chen Cui looked at Wei Xi's slightly tired appearance, then glanced at Wei Xi's panel in the system, and saw that his mood was pretty good, but his physical fitness had dropped by 2 points, which made her feel a little distressed. I just hope that the next game will be a 'shooting' or 'counting' game, so that he can have a good rest.
However, what was not satisfactory was that the third match was really about "books".
"I'm fine." Wei Xi smiled and comforted everyone, saying that he was in good condition.
Then he went off again.
The topic of this calligraphy competition was announced by the old headmaster of Hongle Academy. "The so-called harmony of heaven, earth, man and self is the way to success. Students should write the four characters 'Heaven, Earth, Man and Self'."
The monk still lit a stick of incense, and the students responded respectfully.
“Are we only required to write a few simple words in the re-examination? Isn’t it said that the difficulty of the re-examination should be greatly increased?” Fatty Mu asked Lao Buyu in a low voice outside the venue.
Lao Buyu said, "Small characters are easy, but large characters are difficult. And these four characters... are really hard to write."
If the first test is about calligraphy, it is only about the speed of writing and the beauty of the handwriting, then the second test is about these few big characters, it is about the style, charm, and even the artistic conception.
Just like cooking, many chefs can cook delicacies from land and sea into delicious dishes, but if it is the most common vegetables and tofu, it requires extremely high skills and talent to simplify and cook different delicacies with the simplest ingredients.
After Lao Buyu's explanation, Chen Cui and Mu Erpang were both worried for Wei Xi.
The same was true for other students in the room. No one was in a hurry to write, but were quietly feeling the artistic conception of those four words.
After half of the time had passed, everyone started writing, and Wei Xi also picked up his pen.
After writing the four big characters, his forehead was covered with sweat, and he looked even more tired than before when he had played the guqin for so long.
After Zhaifu took away the test papers, everyone left.
This time when he returned to the stands of Cuiwei Academy, the smile disappeared from Wei Xi's face. He shook his head to indicate that he had not performed well.
"It's okay, it's okay. What we are betting on is not a 'book', and our preparations are not sufficient. Just do your best." Lao Buyu comforted him in a gentle voice.
Mu Erpang gently wiped his sweat with a handkerchief, "Mr. is right. Besides, you just played the piano for such a long time, and you are competing for the second time in a row. You must be exhausted."
At this moment, Shen Cui regretted removing her tongue. If she could speak, she could comfort Wei Xi better than Lao Buyu and Mu Erpang, who were not very good at speaking.
Unable to speak, 'he' could only pat Wei Xi's back gently, telling him not to feel disappointed.
Although what everyone said made sense, Wei Xi himself knew that insufficient preparation and fatigue were not the main reasons. The real reason was that he was not as skilled as others. He couldn't write those four simple words with any elegance and charm.
In fact, before this academy competition, Wei Xi was also a bit arrogant. Otherwise, he wouldn't have refused to go to Qingzhu Academy just because of Lao Buyu.
Of course he knew about Lao Buyu's reputation as a sloppy person, but he felt that no matter how sloppy Lao Buyu was, he would be able to learn better than others based on his qualifications.
Now I realize that there are countless learned people in the world, and it is not his turn to be arrogant because of his talent.
Fortunately, I discovered this in calligraphy, which I am not very good at. If I had lost in something I am good at and then realized my shortcomings, I would have been really hit hard.
【System prompt: The mood of training subject No. 2 has changed, EQ +1. 】
Shen Cui was very surprised.
Since Wei Xi came into the family, he has used a lot of system products, and his physical condition has been improved.
Later she verified it with the system, and it was just like in an online game, the higher the level, the more experience points were required for each level, and the harder it was to upgrade. At first, Mu Erpang had a low starting point, but after taking one [Enlightenment Pill] he could increase 20 points in each aspect. Later his upgrade speed was not slow, and his overall aptitude rose to 40 points. After surpassing children of the same age, his upgrade speed slowly slowed down. In the more than half a year since Cuiwei Academy was established, Mu Erpang's overall aptitude has only increased by 10 points.
Therefore, she always felt that apart from Wei Xi's physical fitness, all other attributes, which were over 80 and close to 90, would most likely not increase any further.
I didn’t expect that I would gain such a lot from participating in the academy competition!
Not long after, the fourth game started. This is a shooting match.
It's Mu Erpang's turn to leave.
It is still a game of tossing pots, but the Guan'er pot in this game has been placed dozens of steps away. It was a much longer distance than Lao Buyu had imagined the day before, and one that Mu Erpang had never practiced before.
The Hukou placed at the end point almost looked like a small black dot in the eyes of people standing at the starting point.
They were still divided into five groups, but because a group of people had already been eliminated in the initial test and the re-examination could no longer use the human wave tactic, the line became much shorter.
Wei Shu had not competed the day before, and today's re-examination was much more difficult, so it was his turn.
It was also a coincidence that the two of them were assigned to the same team, with Wei Shu standing behind Mu Erpang.
The day before, when the students were competing in the game of throwing pots, they were very lively. Today, the monk still did not say that no one could make any noise, but it was exceptionally quiet.
Soon it was Mu Erpang's turn. As Zhaifu was distributing arrows, Wei Shu suddenly whispered to him, "Don't let your eyes fool you."
After saying this, Wei Shu said no more.
Mu Erpang didn't understand what he meant for a moment, and then he looked at the scholar in front of him.
The scholar exerted great strength and his aim was also pretty good, but the arrow he threw just grazed the mouth of the pot and hit the target, meaning he missed the target and got no points.
Considering what Wei Shu said again, Mu Erpang understood.
When you see the mouth of the pot becoming so small, you will subconsciously feel that it will take a lot of effort!
If this is discovered after the first arrow hits the target, then there is absolutely no chance of passing.
The first person missed the target with his first arrow, but he was a strong player after all. After failing once, he was hit by three consecutive "scattered arrows", but he only got three points.
After that man left sadly, Mu Erpang took the first position.
Relaxing his body and mind in the same way, feeling the wind direction in the same way, he slightly retracted his strength and threw it out - another 'Youchu', and it was a perfect hit!
Mu Erpang turned to look at Wei Shu, and Wei Shu also curled up the corners of his mouth, but then returned to his normal expression.
Mu Erpang stopped being distracted and threw again, but his level was limited and luck did not favor him anymore. The next three arrows failed to hit the pot due to various problems.
After he finished throwing, it was Wei Shu's turn. Mu Erpang deliberately slowed down a bit, and Wei Shu's movements were also very neat. He fired four arrows in succession. There were four crisp sounds, and all four arrows hit the target!
This is the strength that once won all the academies and took first place in the shooting field!
Mu Erpang looked at him with admiration. If they weren’t in front of others, he would have given him a thumbs up with his two fat thumbs up!
After the performance, the two returned to the stands where their own academies were located.
Mu Erpang did not hide the truth from everyone and said directly: "My performance was not very good. There are not many people who can hit all four arrows like the eldest brother of the Wei family and get the "beginning and end", but there are many who can hit three arrows in a row."
Not long after these words were spoken, Qingzhu Academy quickly compiled the results.
Cuiwei Academy is not on the list.
They have already competed four times in a row, and Cuiwei has only passed the "Music" round. Even if she passes the "Sum" round, she will not be able to participate in the next round of competition.
Shen Cui spent so much time and resources preparing just to get the reward for passing the re-examination. Now that her [Disguise Pill] is about to expire, she should find a chance to leave and get her own identity back.
But at this moment, he renewed the second one in the system without hesitation. In the disappointed eyes of everyone, he patted his chest confidently!
His undeterred look soon infected the others. Lao Buyu said with a smile, "It doesn't matter if we fail the retest. We still have a trump card! Xiao Xi got first place in the retest, so let's get first place in this test!"
There is no need to say more. If we get two excellent grades in the re-examination, who can still say that Cuiwei Academy is a makeshift team and bring disgrace to the local literati? !
Wei Xi and Mu Erpang came to participate in this competition to gain knowledge and protect their own masters, so they stopped blaming themselves and looked at Zhang Sheng with expectation.
At this time, several judges gathered together and were preparing the final round of math papers in order to prevent any college from leaking the questions.
The last question was asked by the old principal of Hongle Academy.
After this question was asked, the other judges were hesitant to speak. Finally, Ling Qingming, the organizer, spoke up for everyone and asked tentatively, "Is your question... a little too difficult?"
This question is not only for students taking the re-examination, but also for principals and teachers who are not good at mathematics. It would probably be quite a headache for them if they encountered it.
The old headmaster stroked his beard and smiled without saying anything. After a long while, he said slowly: "You all have your own questions, which can already test the level of the students. Mine is just an additional question."
