On both sides of the river sat many scholars. These scholars were all staring at the small boat in the river. In the surrounding audience seats, there were many people sitting. These people were all talking in low voices.

Zhao Hai saw Dong Chuan. Dong Chuan and the others had not had the chance to go on stage yet. They were waiting at the back. However, judging from their looks, they would not be able to go on stage for a while because there were many people waiting in front of them.

At this moment, a small boat suddenly stopped in front of a scholar. The scholar smiled and reached out his hand to pick up the wine cup in the small boat. Then, he drank the wine in the cup in one gulp. He took a look at the words in the cup and handed the cup to a waiter behind him. After the waiter took the cup, he also took a look at the words in the cup and said loudly, &Quot; question, what is the tenth sentence on page fifteen of li Zhengye's perception of the mean? "

The scholar thought for a moment and said in a deep voice, " "It should be. No matter what the situation is, a gentleman should be content with his life."

The waiter did not say anything. After a while, a low voice said, " "Correct. Ando is matching one question. So far, Ando has answered 15 questions correctly."

Everyone was in an uproar when they heard this voice. They didn't expect that an Dao would get it right again. Qu Shuishang's questions were all very difficult to answer, but an Dao had gotten fifteen of them right. This was unbelievable.

Then, the winding and flowing process continued. The small boat soon stopped in front of a scholar. After drinking, the scholar looked at the wine in his cup, and his expression changed. In the end, he gave a wry smile and returned the cup to the waiter. Then, he stood up, cupped his fists to the surrounding people, and turned to leave.

Seeing this situation, everyone knew that he couldn't answer the question. The others didn't have any complaints, but soon, someone came to his seat and stayed.

To be honest, such a competition was very unfair because you didn't know where the boat would stop. If a person sat there for a long time but didn't stop the boat, it would be equivalent to sitting for nothing. Not only would he not be able to drink a mouthful of wine, but he wouldn't be able to answer a question.

However, there were also people who said that luck was also a part of one's strength. Besides, there was no absolute fairness in this world, so it was not a big deal that the winding stream had slipped through.

Zhao Hai spent the whole afternoon watching " flowing water ". To be honest, it looked simple, but it was very difficult to answer the questions. Zhao Hai found that, on average, each participant could answer no more than five questions. Some of them couldn't answer a single question, while others could answer more than a dozen. Li Zhengye, for example, answered eighteen questions. That was why he had no choice but to leave the stage. However, even though he left the stage, he received a round of applause from the entire audience. Clearly, his performance had made many people's eyes light up.

Zhao Hai also realized that the questions asked during the competition were really complicated. There were music, chess, painting, calligraphy, calculation, divination, astrology, and other more irrelevant questions. These questions were sometimes the most difficult, and many scholars had failed in these questions.

The winding stream finally stopped at daybreak, but this only meant that the problem had stopped. People could still go to the side of the winding river to drink and chat. There were still small boats floating in the river, and there was still fine wine on the boats, but the number of small boats was much more than during the day.

The important thing was that at this time in the evening, all the audience could come to Qushui for a drink. The fine wine provided by the Wu family was unlimited and didn't limit one's status. Therefore, many people came to Qushui for a drink and chat.

Zhao Hai also came to the side of Qushui. He was casually holding a glass of wine in his hand. After taking a sip, he went to the side of Dong Chuan and the others. Dong Chuan and the others were talking with a scholar. Zhao Hai found that he had seen this scholar before. He was Ando, who had been in the limelight this afternoon.

When Dong Chuan saw Zhao Hai, he immediately said, " &Quot; senior an, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Zhao Hai from soldier soul University. Mr. Zhao Hai, this is senior an. You should have met him this afternoon. He is a student of our advanced class. He is the pride of our Academy. Senior an has already started writing his own book. His 'a reflection on languages' has been placed in the Academy's library. &Quot;

Ando bowed to Zhao Hai. &Quot; &Quot; so it's Mr. Zhao Hai. Nice to meet you. I've long heard of Mr. Zhao Hai's great name. However, I've been busy these few days with my worldly possessions and couldn't visit you. Please forgive me. &Quot;

Zhao Hai smiled. &Quot; Mr. An, you're too polite. You're a high-ranking student in the Academy. If you can come and visit me, I'll be able to help you. &Quot; Wouldn't that be humiliating me? I can't afford that."

Ando laughed heartily. &Quot; Mr. Zhao Hai, you're too humble. You're a guest from the soldier soul continent, so how could I not accept it? I'm really surprised that you're here today. What do you think of this winding stream? "

"Elegant and competitive. Good, very good." Zhao Hai said in a low voice.

Ando smiled,'I wonder if there's such a competition in the soldier soul continent? I'm very curious about the soldier soul continent, so please don't take offense."

Zhao Hai shook his head and said, " it's not strange. This kind of competition can't be seen in the soldier soul continent because there are no scholars there. In the Academy of the soldier soul continent, private matters are usually not allowed. If you want to have a competition, you can apply to the Academy. Once the application is approved, the Academy will not care about what happens during the process of the competition. In other words, life and death are the rules of the competition in the soldier soul continent. &Quot;

Ando and the others were taken aback by Zhao Hai's words. Dong Chuan and the others 'expressions changed, but Ando seemed to be in deep thought. He nodded and said, &Quot; I see. I've long heard that martial arts were revered in the soldier soul continent. Now it seems that it's true. But won't there be a lot of casualties? "

Zhao Hai smiled and said, " there will be, but under normal circumstances, such a competition will not happen. Because even if two people have a grudge, they can resolve it outside the school. There is no way to resolve it in the school. If two people have similar status and family backgrounds, under normal circumstances, conflicts will rarely occur. Unless the two families want to go to war, at most, they will only be at odds with each other. There will not be any serious conflicts. &Quot;

"I see, I've learned a lot. Did you graduate from an Academy in the soldier soul continent? To be able to produce a student like teacher, that Academy must be very impressive, right?" Ando said, looking at Zhao Hai.

Zhao Hai smiled, " &Quot; Mr. An, you must be joking. In the soldier soul continent, Academies are usually run by the royal family, and the purpose of the royal family's Academies is to attract talents. Although there are many students there, many of them are from noble families. They don't go there to learn, but to build connections and attract talents. The disciples of noble families usually have secret techniques passed down from their families, and these secret techniques are better than what the academies teach. I'm a core disciple of the HU family, so I'm very capable. I only went to the Academy for a few months in order to protect my sister's safety."

Ando and the others were stunned when they heard Zhao Hai's words. To the people of the literature continent, the Academy was a sacred place. The power of the Academy was even greater, because each Academy was the actual ruler of the continent. But now, Zhao Hai was saying that the families were the rulers of the soldier soul continent and the academies were just tools in the hands of the rulers. They couldn't accept this at once.

&Quot; so that's how it is, " Ando mumbled. &Quot; I didn't expect the Academy to be like this in the soldier soul continent. &Quot;

&Quot; it's just a difference in opinion, " Zhao Hai said with a smile. &Quot; Mr. An, you don't have to be surprised. &Quot; (To be continued.) &Quot; if you like this work, you're welcome to come to Qidian.com to give your recommendation and monthly vote.
