Chapter 258 - Assessment (2)



Chapter 258: Assessment (2)

It was already very late at night.

Sitting at the counter, Ling Pingan was revising his novel.

The main purpose was to cut out some unnecessary content and add some interesting things.

He slowly wrote.

The clock was ticking.

He inadvertently raised his head. “It’s already 10 hp…”

Moving his hand away from the keyboard, he stretched his neck and turned his head to look outside.

It was already autumn.

The night in Jiangcheng City became cooler.

From afar, Ling Pingan heard a happy song.

“A group of ducks are swimming under the big tree in front of the door. Come and count them. Two, four, six, seven, eight…”

The song was tender and melodious, making people feel calm.

Meow!

The Kitten, who had been sleeping at the counter, raised its head and looked out of the door with its Amber Cat eyes.

It seemed to be able to sense something.

A moment later, a young man walked to the door of the bookstore with a little girl.

Ling pingan looked over and found that it seemed to be the owner of the barbecue shop.

He quickly stood up, walked over, and opened the door.

“Sir…” The young man held the hand of a cute little girl who seemed to be at most five or six years old. He slightly held the lens on his eye socket, then, he said very politely, “I heard that you have some exercise books for sale here?”

Ling Pingan immediately laughed when he heard that.

“Yes!” He said, “Please come in and talk!”

“Thank you!” The boss of the barbecue shop bowed with gratitude. Then, he picked up the little girl he was holding and walked in.

As he walked in, he introduced Ling Pingan, “This is Aning, my adopted little sister…”

“Oh…” Ling Pingan nodded. Looking at the little girl, he felt that she was very cute, so he said, “So cute!”

“Thank you, Big Brother!” Aning thanked him in a sweet manner.

“Oh, right…” Ling Pingan reached out and touched Ah Ning’s head. Then, he asked the barbecue shop owner, “Customer, which aspect of the exercise book do you want?”

“There’s a national examination, right?”

“Yes!” Ling pingan nodded and then looked at the other party in surprise. “Dear customer, do you intend to apply for the official examination?”

The national examination was the main way for the federal empire to recruit civil servants and low-level officials.

It was changed from the imperial examination in the past.

However, Emperor Taizu’s system was that everyone had to go down to the low-level!

The so-called fierce generals had to rise from the ranks, while the prime minister was interested in the prefectures and counties.

He made it mandatory that all cabinet members and officials of the prefectures and counties had to have a complete resume.

Thus, two parallel systems appeared in the Federal Empire.

There was a saying among the people: the general election elects policy, and the national examination elects the prime minister.

Therefore, the national examination of the Federal Empire was very difficult!

At present, it was basically only those graduates from top universities who had the courage to apply for the examination.

Anyway, Ling Pingan did not dare to go — he could not afford to lose face!

The other party seemed to be shocked and immediately denied, “No… I am inexperienced, how would I dare to have that idea?”

“I just want to buy some back and train myself, so that I won’t be eliminated!”

How could he dare to answer that?

Did he want to die?

To participate in his exam and become his official?

The gods would crush such a blasphemous insect like him to death at the first moment!

Ling Pingan heard this and was filled with respect. “Guest, you are a true gentleman!”

The other party smiled and quickly said, “Ah, I just want to improve…”

“So, I took the liberty to visit you…”

“I hope you don’t mind…”

As he said that, he bowed deeply.

Just like the young people of ancient times, they were asking for advice and copying books from famous people in places with rich collections of books.

This greatly improved Ling Pingan’s impression of him.

Therefore, he picked up two cups and made a cup of tea for the two customers. As he made tea, he said, “Please take a seat…”

“Thank you!” The barbeque shop owne sat on the sofa with his sister on his lap.

His eyes were looking at the bookstore.

The powerful spirit sense of the former ruler clearly sensed the great and immortal strength that existed in this terrifying bookstore.

Time and space, in a sense, were stagnant here.

Of course, they could also pass by quickly.

All of this depended on him — the great and immortal origin of all things, the ultimate existence of the universal truth, the supreme being who could decide everything with a single thought!

The Silver Key was the servant who was responsible for supervising and combing time according to his great will.

And in this ultimate place that existed according to the Supreme Being’s will.

His loyal servants were on standby at all times.

The old rulers had already sensed that several terrifying wills far stronger than him had already noticed him.

They existed under the floor, hidden in the wallpaper, and crouched in the cracks of the ceiling.

They were all waiting for orders.

That order could be a thought, a look, or just a seemingly meaningless action.

But..

All of this would be read easily!

These beings who had served the supreme for God knows how long were his most loyal servants.

So, the owner of the barbecue shop was very nervous now.

His soul was trembling.

Because he knew very well that although he was worshipped by countless races in countless worlds,

And was regarded as the Heavenly Father and Savior, the ultimate Judge and Destroyer.

Here..

He was just an insignificant bug that could be trampled to death at any time!

A single-celled inferior creature.

An insignificant piece of trash!

However, Aning didn’t know about this.

She looked around the bookstore curiously.

In her innocent and simple eyes, everything she saw was so novel.

“Wow!” Aning clapped her hands and said, “Brother, the brother here has a kitten!”

“It’s so cute!”

Zhou Ke could only laugh and say, “Yes, it’s very cute!”

Meow!

Hearing the praise, the kitten raised its head. Its amber cat eyes looked at the little girl.

It could feel that this little girl was a little special.

She was not human, but there was no spirit power fluctuation in her body.

In addition, it was the person sitting beside her.

Bastet recognized him.

But..

Bastet lowered its head gently. It did not want to care about these things, and there was no need for it to care.

The sound of its master’s footsteps came from afar.

Bastet raised its head and looked at its master.

It could feel the danger of the thing in its master’s hand!

It was full of terrifying strength.

Endless terrifying howls filled the interior and exterior.

It was a ticket to an incomparably horrifying and dangerous world.

And that world, even to the former rulers, was a world that was dangerous enough.

Although Bastet did not know what kind of world it was,.

But he knew that a weak true God like him would only be cannon fodder there!

Zhou Ke also turned his head.

He looked at the supreme-being who was walking toward him with a card filled with endless wails and anger.

Flames were rising from the eye sockets of the supreme-being in the fog.

He subconsciously shivered.

..

Ling Pingan held the exercise book in his hand and handed it to the barbecue shop owner.

He smiled and said, “Customer, what do you think of this exercise book?”

He said, “This is the exercise book that has been sought after by countless national examinees. It is known as a complete guide to the national examination…”

As Zhou Ke listened, his eardrums began to sting.

He looked at the card that was covered in endless black fog.

He took it with trembling hands.

The temperature was so hot that it made his heart break!

Zhou Ke immediately knew that this was a ticket to an ancient battlefield.

It was his calamity, and also his opportunity.

If he could come out alive, then he might have a sliver of the qualification to compete with other gods.

And this was what he dreamed of.

A chance!

So, Zhou Ke immediately thanked him, “Thank you so much!”

He knew very well that this supreme-being was immersed in a beautiful dream.

So, he could rely on the way he was doing now to brush past the edge.

Otherwise, under normal circumstances, he would never have the chance!

Because, he was just an insect!

But, even so, there was still a price to pay!

Therefore, Zhou Ke asked with a smile, “How much?”

Ling Pingan listened and laughed, “Forget about the money…”

It was just an exercise book. It was not worth anything!

“How can this be?” Zhou Ke was nervous. He knew what the price was?

In this place, everything had a price.

The quantity and amount of money was not the key.

The key was the price that had been set by the underworld.

But compared to real money.

The most terrifying thing here was gifts that are given out for free!

Because to this supreme-being, other than a few mortals, any other free gifts had already been secretly marked with a sufficient price!

And those prices were usually expensive and dangerous.

In the universe, everyone knew a truth — free was the most expensive!

Ling Pingan looked at the barbeque shop owner who wanted to be polite with him and said with a smile, “You don’t have to be so polite…”

“Next time when I order takeout from your shop, you can just give me some food for free…”

He had personally verified the cooking skills of this barbeque shop owner.

In the future, he believed that he would have many opportunities to come into contact with him.

Therefore, a worthless exercise book was really unimportant.

“Give you some…” Zhou Ke’s face stiffened.

Sure enough!

The free one was the most expensive one!

But..

What could he do? Refuse?

That was courting death!

Not only could he not refuse, he had to thank him.

Thank him for his kindness, thank him for his reward.

The thunder and rain dew were all his kindness.

He clearly sensed that countless existences were staring at him.

This great reward, this supreme glory, already belonged to him!

So, he immediately forced a smile and said, “Next time, when you come to my shop to order, I will definitely give you the best…”

Those existences closed their eyes in satisfaction.

It was for his understanding and his intelligence.

This was a beautiful job that many people wanted but couldn’t get!

“Then I won’t bother you anymore…” Zhou Ke picked up Aning, bowed and took his leave.

Ling Pingan nodded. “Take care…”

Thus, he personally walked the brother and sister to the door.
