Murong Ci could somewhat guess the mentality of these young talents that were both worshipping and in awe of Murong Yu.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

Murong Yu was only thirty years old, but he was already an extremely powerful Minister, dominating the Government, and his power was overwhelming.

He was not only a symbolic figure for those young talents who wanted to gain fame and wealth, but also a model to follow for his achievements in the world!

Murong Yu had been in the military army since he was a child.

He had become famous during the war between the surrounding Countries, when he was still young.

He commanded the Three Imperial Armies at the age of twenty, and he was appointed the title of the Prince Regent at the age of twenty-five, and dominated the court ever since.

He became the most outstanding and important person in the Northern Yan Dynasty, moving the world with his fame.

'Who wouldn't worship such an iron-blooded legend and such a high-quality symbolic figure?

Who wouldn't be in awe for him?'

For everyone in the Northern Yan Country, he was the legendary "God of War", who defended his family and Country, never failing in his tactics, like a god.

For other Countries, he was a "War Demon" who frightened the enemy and killed the enemy's soldiers with cunning and poisonous horror.

In the past five years,

how many talented men, but inferior to him, have been using him as a model for inspiration,

and how many disciples have thrown aside their dullness and raised their fighting spirit, vowing to become the right arm of the Royal King...

In short, there were so many rumors related to Murong Yu.

And even existed many versions of the same rumor, which meet the needs of all kinds of people.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

Today, thirty-six young talents saw the rumored Prince Regent coming to the Wuying Hall.

In addition to worshipping and awe, they were also excited and motivated like a god.

They believed that with the presence of the Regent there, they would definitely perform extraordinary and be favored by His Majesty and Princess Zhaohua.

As soon as Murong Yu came, there was no more seat for He Guang, the Minister of the Ministry of Etiquette and Rituals-...

His seat needed to be given over to the Regent.

He Guang's entire body and legs were trembling with fear, and he was in a cold sweat.

'The Royal King wouldn't come here for no reason...

It must be that His Majesty was worried to leave just me and the Crown Prince supervising the Literary Test Essay Examination, and so he asked the Royal King to come over and supervise their work.'

Thinking of this, He Guang's sweat soaked his robe again and again.

Murong Yu took his seat, and with a gaze as light as a feather he flicked over Murong Ci's face, as if a layer of dust had been removed.

Then he clapped his hands and said loudly:.

"You all answer the questions well, to repay for God's favor.

Master He, let the Literary Test start."

Murong Ci gave him an annoyed look, too lazy to speak...

'As soon as he came, I, the Crown Prince and Supervisor of this Competition, became like a neglected celadon decoration...

Whatever...If he likes to show up then let him show up as much as he wants...'

He Guang announced:.

"The Literary Test is the first test for the selection of Princess Zhaohua's Consort Husband.

Your answer sheets will be personally handed over to Your Majesty for review.

Write politely and clear at a glance!

The test will last for one hour, which is the time of an incense to burn completely.

You should pay attention to the time."

After that, he motioned to the assistant next to him to light the incense.

The young talents began to polish and prepare their ink, ready to start writing.

In fact, long before they entered the venue, the in-house attendants had prepared the desks, and the ink cases and brushes from the study, and had set them on each desk.

He Guang said

"Let the Test start",

and thirty-six young talents began to write quickly.

Without squinting her eyes, Murong Ci glanced at whether the people participating in the Literary Test in the Hall behaved differently.

Although this is not as rigorous as the ScientificTest or the Palace Examinations, if you cheat in this Royal Competition, you will not only lose your face and harm your Family's reputation, but His Majesty will definitely condemn it.

However, she believed that nobody would cheat so stupidly.

The Test questions for the Literary Test had been set, and they only needed to choose one to answer from the two Test questions.

What made her depressed was that, just before coming to the Wuying Hall, she learned from He Guang that one of the Test questions had been changed and replaced with a question issued by the Royal King, and His Majesty agreed to change it.

It was undeniable that in comparison, Murong Yu's Test question was a little bit more difficult than those of the Emperor Father, and they could better measure true talent, knowledge and courage.

The entire Hall was silent, except for the noises heard from outside the Hall and the light sounds of someone serving tea.

Murong Yu looked at He Guang and winked.

He Guang understood what he meant.

He went down and walked with a few subordinates from both sides of the Hall, reminding those young talents with different looks to be diligent and not to do anything disappointing, otherwise they would be sent out of the Wuying Hall and not allowed to participate in tomorrow's Competition, the Martial Arts Test.
