Earlier, the Star of Literature arrived at Huaguo Mountain.

"Monkey King."

He bowed to Sun Wukong in Shuilian Cave.

Sun Wukong looked at him: "Star of Literature, what brings you down to the mortal world this time?"

The Star of Literature glanced at the chest placed beside Sun Wukong.

These were gifts of thanks from various human nations.

Demons brought Wind Cold Pills to various nations, and in return, these nations sent their thanks.

However, the gifts were just the surface; the essence was to strengthen the relationships with Huaguo Mountain—the chest was filled with various documents.

The Star of Literature realized that the influence of Sun Wukong on various nations was greater than he had anticipated.

"I heard that the Monkey King is promoting the Wind Cold Pills."

The Star of Literature said, "Could you also promote the examination system of Huaguo Mountain?"

The Jade Emperor rejected the Star of Literature's proposal, but after much deliberation, he still felt it was a pity and that it must be done.

He manifested in the temple, aiming to achieve some results to change the Jade Emperor's mind, but did not anticipate facing fierce opposition from the nobles of various countries. At a loss, the Star of Literature thought of Sun Wukong.

"Monkey King, you have good relationships with various human nations, they might listen to your advice."

The Star of Literature said, "I am willing to stay in the mortal world to help."

Sun Wukong was somewhat surprised, but given the Star of Literature's emphasis on the examination system, it wasn't a bad thing.

"If that is the case," Sun Wukong nodded, "I will help you."

The Star of Literature was overjoyed.

Sun Wokong then discussed with the Star of Literature, naming the system to be promoted as 'Imperial Examination'.

The term Imperial Examination came from the Heavenly Book. The Imperial Examination system would improve the personnel management systems of the nations, completely breaking the monopoly of the nobility and hereditary connections.

In the Four Great Continents, the selection of officials in human nations was still mainly based on heredity, with recommendations playing a secondary role.

If the Imperial Examination system could be promoted, it could enable the phenomenon where "a peasant in the morning could rise to be an emperor by evening".

People from the lower layers of human society with abilities could enter the official ranks and also obtain opportunities to utilize their intelligence.

"This matter should not be rushed."

Sun Wukong advised, "The hereditary system is customary and cannot be changed quickly. We should advise the rulers of various nations to select a few officials using the Imperial Examination system and not cause too much harm to the nobility."

The Star of Literature nodded.

He had seen the opposition of the nobility, hastening could lead to chaos.

"First find a country where it's easy to implement."

Sun Wukong said.

The Star of Literature nodded: "That would be good."

Sun Wukong considered everything thoroughly, and the Star of Literature admired him greatly.

The two calculated, and Sun Wukong looked surprised.

"It turns out to be the West Liang Woman Country."

"The reproductive system of the Female Country is different from other countries."

The Star of Literature was also surprised: "Perhaps for this reason, there is lesser resistance."

Sun Wukong nodded: "Then let's choose it. It's also time to take the Wind Cold Pills there."

He and the Star of Literature prepared the Imperial Examination Document for the Daughter Country.

The Star of Literature holding the document, gratefully said: "I did not expect the Monkey King to understand so much about the Female Country."

"Not really understand."

Sun Wukong replied: "Just roughly."

He had several Monkey Images in the Daughter Country, and over the years, hearing and seeing, he also knew some situations.

"Rakshasa."

Sun Wukong turned his head and said to Lady Rakshasa: "You go to the Daughter Country with the Star of Literature."

"Understood."

Lady Rakshasa nodded and untied the rope of the Green Ox.

The Green Ox resisted, unwilling to leave: "I'm not going."

"Go."

Sun Wukong said: "After returning, I will let you play in Huaguo Mountain."

Upon hearing this, the white deer also stood up.

"Then I'm going too!"

Two demons pulled the carriage, taking Lady Rakshasa and the Star of Literature together to the Daughter Country.

"Have you seen the people of the Daughter Country?"

On the carriage, the Star of Literature asked Lady Rakshasa.

"I have."

Lady Rakshasa nodded. The merchants of the Daughter Country also came to Huaguo Mountain for trade, and she had seen them several times.

"The Daughter Country highly respects the Great King."

Lady Rakshasa continued, the merchants she saw all liked to order statues of the Monkey King.

As they talked, they arrived in the Southern Continent.

The carriage flying through the sky of the Southern Continent was seen by the humans below, who showed looks of astonishment.

Many elderly thought an Immortal was descending, and they knelt down to pray.

Elder Jin Chan saw this very carriage.

Two days later, the carriage arrived in West Liang Woman Country, causing a stir among all the civil and military officials.

Upon learning the identity of the arrivals, the Queen of the Female Country immediately stopped the court meeting, straightened her attire, and led her officials to welcome them.

"Welcome the envoys from Huaguo Mountain."

The Queen held a welcoming ceremony for the Star of Literature and Lady Rakshasa.

This was the first time Huaguo Mountain had sent envoys there, a matter of great significance. The Queen dared not neglect them.

She accepted the Wind Cold Pills, prepared thanks and a handwritten letter, and handed them back to Lady Rakshasa.

The Star of Literature handed over the document to the Queen and discussed the Imperial Examination.

The Queen agreed without a second word.

Leaving the Daughter Country, the Star of Literature could not help but exclaim: "The Monkey King's reputation is really useful."

The Queen's speech showed she valued the Monkey King as much as any Immortal.

The successful promotion of the Imperial Examination system made the Star of Literature feel the air was even clearer.

"I need to continue visiting various countries."

The Star of Literature thought to himself, Sun Wukong's name being so useful, he must make the most of it.

After the two left, the Queen of the Daughter Country led the Princess to a Monkey Image to pray.

"Mother."

The young Princess asked: "When will we hold the Imperial Examination?"

"Next month."

The Queen answered: "The Imperial Examination Document brought by the Star of Literature was written by the Wise Monkey of Huaguo Mountain, which suits our country's conditions well and can be used directly."

The Princess was somewhat happy: "How did the Wise Monkey know about our country's conditions?"

"He is an Immortal; he can see us through the Monkey Image."

The Queen smiled in response: "You have benefited from his kindness, don't forget to come and burn incense every day."

"Yes."

The Princess nodded.

The mother and daughter bowed a few times to the Monkey Image.

"Mother, do you think the Wise Monkey can always protect our country's peace and the well-being of our people?"

The Princess asked again.

"This..."

The Queen hesitated for a moment, then answered: "As long as we are sincere, he will protect us."
