Ma Jiamen: I was forced to fight for supremacy

Chapter 124: Horse Battle in Preparation for the Exam

Ma Zhan was able to leave Jixia Academy only under Jingtai Lan's "escort".

As soon as Kou Ping announced that Ma Zhan would become a participant in the discussion, the military disciples surrounded him.

Being surrounded by this group of people, Ma Yan was so scared that he even pulled the string on his crossbow.

As a result, a group of military strategists' disciples asked Ma Zhan to explain special operations in detail, and the disciples were willing to call him "Sir".

Some people even think that Ma Zhan is qualified to have his portrait hung in the Military Ancestral Hall.

These words almost scared Ma Zhan to death.

'You are so young, you don't care about anything you say.

Do you know what "overpraise" means, brother?

I nearly plucked out all my hair in preparation for these two paragraphs.

Now I just want to go back and have a good sleep.'

Just when Ma Zhan was trying to "escape" from the "encirclement" of the military strategists' disciples, all the schools in the academy received the news that the Taoist had appeared.

A paragraph of text appeared on the notice at the entrance of Jixia Academy.

The Liang State had a horse battle in Qingshui County, and discussed Taoism at the Jixia Academy.

After the military strategists had defeated the invaders, they led the military school and appointed him as a scholar.

Ten days later, you can discuss the hundreds of schools of thought at the Jixia Academy.

Ma Zhan had just left, and all kinds of messengers were flying to various countries and regions in Jixia Academy.

Jingtai Lan was so happy along the way that he couldn't stop smiling.

As soon as he walked out of the gate of Jixia Academy, he ordered his servant to invite the courtesan.

Enduring Jingtai Lan's loud laughter, Ma Zhan gently held Meng Yao's hand, and his tense mind suddenly relaxed.

This was the first time Ma Zhan held Meng Yao's hand in public.

To others, it looks like an older sister holding her younger brother's hand.

Mengyao looked at Ma Zhan from time to time, sometimes smiling knowingly, sometimes blushing.

At the Duke of Qi's Mansion, Ma Zhongtong, who had visited the Sanzi Prefecture Governor, was invited to the garden as soon as he entered the door.

He and Jingtai Lan began a shameless and exciting night life.

At the same time, Ma Zhan, who habitually caught up on sleep after the exam, had fallen asleep.

——The news of the appearance of the Taoist scholar at Jixia Academy seemed to have grown wings.

As the sky was getting dark, the news spread throughout the streets and alleys of Sanzizhou.

Officials at all levels in Sanzi Prefecture and aristocratic families all tacitly started family meetings.

——Sanzibo Prefecture, Prefecture Government Office.

Wang Changxun passed the news about the discussion back to his family.

He sat quietly for a long time, sighing to himself.

"Every generation has its own talents. Can this young tiger from the Ma family become the key player in this round?"

A few days later, the news spread by the students of Jixia Academy basically reached its destination.

Beneath the calm surface within the Liang State, various forces are responding in different ways.

Some changed their strategies, and some changed their camps.

The emergence of the Taoist debater became a small variable in the Liang State's struggle for Taoism.

In other countries and other ethnic groups, public opinion about the scholars who discussed Taoism at the Jixia Academy began to heat up.

An eleven-year-old boy, a member of the Ma family, the most powerful military officer in Liang State, good at guerrilla warfare and special operations.

Each of these entries is attractive enough and qualified to become the topic of conversation among dignitaries and schools of thought.

Different parties have mixed opinions about the commentator Ma Zhan.

Some people believe that he has created a new model of warfare that will likely change the course of future wars.

Some people also believe that if he does everything he can to win the war, he will be punished by God.

In short, in today's chaotic world, topics related to war are definitely very hot.

What's more, horse warfare proposed an unprecedented direction of war.

Some military commanders are even preparing to build special forces.

In sharp contrast to the outside world's heated public opinion, Ma Zhan has not gone out for seven days.

Those who came to the Duke of Qi's mansion to congratulate and give gifts could not see Ma Zhan.

Even the Prince of Jin Zhao Yao, the Prince of Yan Zhao Biao, the Prince of Tang Li Tai, and the Prince of Chu Jiang Shou.

It was only after being received jointly by Jingtai Lan and Ma Zhongtong that he left the Duke of Qi's Mansion.

In order to ensure Ma Zhan's safety and "prepare for the exam", Yuehua sent Ma Qi and Ma Jiu over.

This is not Ma Zhan deliberately acting like a big shot and pretending to be arrogant and refusing to see guests.

But it is the result of the exam gene breaking out again.

On the second day after becoming a Taoist, Kou Ping brought news about other schools in the academy.

Soon after, Ma Qi and Ma Jiu arrived.

They brought a letter written to him by Yuehua herself.

Ma Zhan became a discussion, and the Ma family's goal was achieved.

The plan for the second level of horse battle is to pick a few terminal schools and defeat the opponent with rich experience.

Unexpectedly, Yuehua seemed to have guessed Ma Zhan's thoughts and expressed it clearly in the letter.

In the second level, you must choose from eleven schools: Confucianism, Taoism, Legalism, Mohism, Novelism, Medicine, Miscellaneous, Agriculture, Fiction, Yin and Yang, and Diplomacy.

This is definitely high intensity.

The twelve mainstream schools among the Hundred Schools of Thought are these eleven plus the Military School.

If Ma Zhan fails to pass the second level, Ma Jiu and Ma Qi will immediately take Meng Yao back to Qingshui.

Yuehua not only increased the difficulty of the exam for Ma Zhan, but also announced in advance the punishment for failing the exam.

For Yuehua, controlling Ma Zhan is a piece of cake.

Under Yuehua's threat, Ma Zhan had to prepare for the exam again.

He tried to forcefully recall some memories of his past life, but he just couldn't remember anything.

Suddenly one day, Ma Zhan became like a mad dog.

He bites everyone he sees except Mengyao.

Especially Ma Qi and Ma Jiu, they couldn't beat him even after being scolded.

The two men decided to wait until Ma Zhan's discussion was over before taking revenge on him.

After venting, Ma Zhan calmed down and began to sort out his thoughts.

Confucianism must be chosen, as I had the most exposure to Confucian literature in my previous life.

Memorizing texts, poems, and classical Chinese, the pain we experienced back then cannot be wasted.

Legalism is a must-choose, although the Legalists in this world do not talk about laws, but Legalist techniques.

But the law is the way for the Legalists to implement their methods. The laws of the past were the most sound and rigorous.

Taoism... Let's just give it up.

The threshold is too high and too difficult to understand.

In my previous life, I occasionally came across Taoist culture on short videos, which was like listening to heavenly books.

The only book I have read is The Nine Yin Scriptures in The Legend of the Condor Heroes.

However, we must go and see the Taoist side to see what is so powerful about Taoism that gave rise to Taoism.

Mohists, get ready.

I don’t know if the technology tree from the previous life can help.

Master, give up.

A bunch of sophists. I am good at criticizing people, but I am not good at debate and I will easily get beaten.

Agriculture, medicine, and novel preparation.

Under the halo of Grandpa Yuan, the farmers have a good chance of winning.

Novelists are like the public opinion leaders of this era. They have seen a lot of public relations in their previous lives and are the most confident.

The most embarrassing thing for doctors is that if they talk about Western medicine with Chinese medicine doctors, they will be kicked out.

Miscellaneous school, yin and yang, vertical and horizontal, giving up.

After setting the goal, the horse battle begins.

Search memories, from textbooks, novels, short videos, hearsay, and even lyrics.

As long as it is glued to the edge, piece it together and put it in.

At night, Ma Zhan began to practice metaphysics.

Pray to the crescent moon and recite silently.

"Brother Chi You, and the seventy-nine brothers, please help me.

Master Zhang, we're friends. Since I kowtowed to you three times, please give me some blessings.

Sister Zhu Ling, as the totem of the fox clan, you must have great magical powers. Please help me."
