Chapter 174: Six Sets of Examination Script

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

The invigilators’ shock originated from the severity of such an offense. However, when Fang Zhengzhi made the report against Ping Yang, the rest of the candidates all had a face of puzzlement.

When Ping Yang chased away that noble, everyone found out about her identity.

Now…

Fang Zhengzhi wanted to report her?!

Was it possible that Fang Zhengzhi actually did not know who she was? It was highly unlikely because the incident at Ping Yang’s birthday banquet was the talk of the capital.

Since he knew, he still dared to report?

Everyone was waiting for Ping Yang to start firing at him.

Then, she really did. However, the target was not Fang Zhengzhi, it was the invigilator who did not recognize her.

After reeling in shock, the invigilator regained his senses.

“Someone snuck in the answers?”

With such a serious incident, there was no way he could be careless.

“Search!”

“How dare you!”

The first sentence was utter by the invigilator while the one after came out of Ping Yang.

The invigilator was once again stunned by Ping Yang’s audacious words. This was the Imperial Academy, he was one of the Imperial Messengers with the responsibility of conducting the examination.

Within the examination room, there was actually someone who challenged him?

Such gall!

Just as he was about to exercise his absolute authority to subdue this impertinent candidate, his eyelids did a jump.

Because…

He noticed that the eyes of the candidate had such clarity, similar to an autumn pond.

The pair of eyes were gorgeous but only one person in the of the Yan Capital, or rather the whole of the Great Xia Dynasty had such gorgeous eyes.

Princess Ping Yang!

“Prin…prin…”

“What are you mumbling on about? Collect the scripts and scram!” Ping Yang slightly tilted her chin up, a face of haughtiness and dominance. She did not wish for her identity to be revealed too much.

However, that did mean that she could just allow this invigilator to search her body.

“Yes, yes!” The invigilator dare not speak further. He swiftly collected Ping Yang and Fang Zhengzhi’s scripts, fearing to question Fang Zhengzhi’s transgression of exceeding the time limit any further.

Compared to his mission, his head was definitely more important to him.

The rest of the invigilator noticed the abnormality. They were prepared to go forward to check it out when they saw Ping Yang turned and gave them a small smile.

In an instant, the three invigilators felt a chill shot down their spine.

“Why did this demoness want to participate in the Imperial Examinations?This…this is simply too…” The three invigilators gave each other a look and quickly decided on the path of self-preservation.

It did not matter if she really snuck in the answers. Even if she was guilty, there was no one who dared to charge her. In the end, they would be the one at the short end of the stick.

In this situation, it was more rational to ignore her rather than checking her.

…

It did not take long for the four invigilators to collect all of the scripts.

After reaching this stage, Fang Zhengzhi felt that it was about time to return to the inn for a bath and some rest. However, Ping Yang definitely would not let him escape so easily.

“Hmph, don’t think you are such a big shot just because you could finish the whole paper. I also know how to write bullshit!” Although Ping Yang was shocked by Fang Zhengzhi completion of the entire examination script, she did not have a clear look at the legitimacy of his answers.

“What? He really finished everything?”

“Twelve pages of questions, he finished every question?”

“How is that possible? There were six sets to the twelve-page examinations script…”

“If he finished everything, didn’t that meant that he finished six examinations worth of questions? To complete six examinations within four hours…”

Those candidates that were preparing to leave had their jaws agape as they heard Ping Yang’s words.

They could not believe that such a thing would happen. However, since Princess Ping Yang said this, then it was highly likely that it was the truth.

At this point, Yan Xiu was looking at Fang Zhengzhi like he was a monster.

Six sets of examination questions in four hours?

“Yes, I’m dead tired from it. Luckily I made it in time… What’s wrong? Did you not finish?” Fang Zhengzhi was confused after hearing Yan Xiu’s question.

“Did you not know that you can choose which questions to do? Every question had a marking to indicate which set it belonged to. Did you…miss it?” Yan Xiu questioned further.

“Marking to indicate which set? I saw it!” Fang Zhengzhi remembered after Yan Xiu reminded him. At the beginning of every question, there was a special marking.

However, Fang Zhengzhi did not know what those were for. All along, he thought it was for aesthetic purposes.

“You saw them yet you finished every question?” Yan Xiu’s face revealed confoundment.

“Oh no… Did I break a rule?” Fang Zhengzhi’s expression changed when he heard Yan Xiu’s words.

Break a rule? Yan Xiu observed Fang Zhengzhi tensing up and his face was at a loss. Such a way to break a rule. It was not some rule that anyone could break just by thinking of it. An average person was really not capable of breaking such a rule.

“I don’t think so,” Yan Xiu shook his head.

“Oh, that’s great! For a moment, I thought I broke a rule. Since it was not against the rules then all is well. The questions were so simple anyway and I knew how to do everything. So, I finished them without a pause.”

“…”

Yan Xiu stared at Fang Zhengzhi’s relaxed face, his mouth opening then closing. Not really sure what to say.

“…”

The rest of the candidates at looked at one another.

“Simple?!”

“Know how to do everything?!”

“So he finished them without pause?!”

“Did he have to insult us like that?!”

Ping Yang focused her glassy orbs at Fang Zhengzhi. She was very annoyed, extremely annoyed! What was the meaning behind this? What was the meaning of the “simple questions”?

It was obviously used to outrightly insult her!

“Fang Zhengzhi, I’m going to kill you!”

“Sure thing. However, now is not the time,” Fang Zhengzhi gave Ping Yang a bored stare. After that, he pulled Yan Xiu with him out of the room.

He did not wish to continue spending his time with the unruly princess.

The rest of the candidates saw Ping Yang started firing and immediately scatter like spooked birds.

In an instant, the examination room only left Ping Yang who was shaking and pouting her tiny cherry lips.

“What was there to gloat about? So what if he finished all six sets… My god! That fellow actually finished all six sets of questions? What for?”

…

The biannual Law of Dao examinations had always been the focal points for both the citizens and officials in the whole of the Great Xia Dynasty, The Imperial Examinations was the focal point of the focal points.

After every Theory Examination, many of the candidates would discuss among themselves the difficulty of the examination.

Furthermore, some officials would take the lead to open up a forum to exchange ideas with the candidates on the thought processes required to answers the questions.

The idea was to examine the questions together with the students, analyze and come to a conclusion together.

In actuality, those officials were also gauging each students potential from the way they approached the analysis. This allowed them to pick out the students with exceptional talents in advance.

After all, to approach them after the release of the results might be too late.

Moreover, to provide them with opportunities before they know of their choices would very much reduce the costs and easier to win over their hearts.

However,

There was an exception in this year’s Imperial Examinations.

Because after the Theory Examinations, the whole of Yan Capital exploded. Everyone was debating about the legendary rumor. Which was about how Fang Zhengzhi finished all six sets of the examination script!

Four hours, six full sets of examination papers. He actually answered all of the questions without fail in such a demanding examination.

Since the establishment of the Great Xia Dynasty, such an event had never happened before…

No one was willing to believe it was possible but the authenticity of this incident could be questioned no further.

All of the candidates that were in the same room of Fang Zhengzhi could pat their chest confidently and even dig out their eyes to support the credibility of such claims.

The invigilators in the Imperial Academy could also confirm the rumors.

This was even witnessed by a mysterious big shot in the capital.

Well, who was this person? No one dared to utter her name as they were quite happy with their lives in Yan Capital.
