I sat bored for nearly an hour, at about four o'clock in the afternoon, someone began to hand in the papers, Xu Jin also followed the papers, and his own small officials took away the test papers and sent them to the sealing place, which is the so-called paste, and sealed the candidate's name to show notarization, and the seal will be opened after the paper is changed.

Candidates who have submitted their papers in advance cannot leave the examination room immediately, and must wait at the exit of the examination room.

Xu Jinzheng whispered greetings to several classmates who had submitted their papers in advance, and then saw Li Chen coming over, obviously also handed in the papers and left the venue in advance.

When Li Chen saw Xu Jin, he was slightly stunned, obviously not expecting Xu Jin to hand in the paper faster than himself.

"Look at Brother Wanzhao's red face, he must have done well in the exam!" A classmate of Xinjiang Academy complimented.

"It's okay, it's still okay to enter the circle!" Li Chen said proudly.

The classmate said enviously: "Then I have to congratulate Brother Wanzhao in advance." ”

Li Chen's "inner circle" means the inner circle of the round case, because there are four to five county exams, and after each test, a round case will be issued a few days later, and the list of those who passed the first exam will be announced, and the list is arranged in a circle, so it is called a round case.

The round case is divided into the inner circle and the outer circle, 20 people in the inner circle, 30 people in the outer circle, the first candidates who enter the inner circle must pass the county examination, that is, the top 20 candidates, even if the next few no longer participate in the county examination.

Therefore, Li Chen so confidently declared that he could enter the circle, obviously feeling that he did well in the exam and would definitely enter the top 20.

Li Chen proudly glanced at Xu Jin, who was silent next to him, and couldn't hide the smug color on his face. Xu Jin didn't bother to bird him, at this time, there was just enough number of people to release the cards, and the door at the exit of the examination room opened, so he went out.

As soon as he walked out of the examination room, Li Chen caught up and said loudly: "Xu Ding, I am the one who is the head of this case, let's see!" ”

"Congratulations!" Xu Jin lightly spit out two words and walked straight away, leaving Li Chen standing in place in embarrassment.

Xu Jin went home to make up for sleep, and didn't get up until the evening to eat, and then continued to study and prepare for the second exam in three days.

On February 19, the results of the first session of the county examination came out, and the round case will be issued at about 10 a.m.

So early in the morning, the outside of the Confucianism Department was full of candidates, stretching their necks one by one, looking urgent, and the fateful moment was coming, because failing the first game meant that they were eliminated and could not take the next exam.

Xu Jin, Cai Yue and Li Yingjun were also mixed in the crowd, there were too many candidates, and there were crowds of people, crowding people on their backs.

With the beat of the three drums, a blower blew a trumpet or other instrument, and saw two officials carrying two large pieces of red paper and pasting them on the wall.

The two yacha were obviously extremely experienced, and as soon as they posted the list, they immediately flashed, and the candidates around them rushed forward and surrounded the list.

"Okay, I'm out of the circle, I'm out of the circle!"

"Haha, me too, rejoicing and rejoicing!"

The candidates who found their seat numbers on the round case were ecstatic, while those who didn't find them looked solemn, and quickly turned their eyes to the sub-list next to them to continue looking.

Xu Jin and Cai Li finally squeezed to the front of the list, raised their eyes, and soon found their seat number in the inner circle of the round case, and they were also the first in the inner circle.

Because the name of the candidate will not be announced for a single case, only the candidate's seat number is written on the list.

At this time, there are a total of 50 candidates on the round case, 20 in the inner circle and 30 in the outer circle. Xu Jin's seat number is written at the top of the inner circle (improved by one word), which means that his first score is the first.

The first of the county test is also called the main field, and it is also the most important one, the top 20 in the inner circle of the round case must pass the county test, and the 30 in the outer circle are not necessarily.

Because in addition to the round case, there is also a sub-list next to it, there are 300 people on the sub-list, and the 30 people in the outer circle may be squeezed out by the people on the sub-list if they do not do well in the next few exams.

Therefore, those who have entered the sub-list still have a chance, and they can continue to take the next second exam, if they can't even enter the sub-list, I'm sorry, please come back next year!

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm on the sub-list!" Cai Yue didn't find his seat number on the round case, but fortunately found it on the sub-list, so he still had a chance to fight.

As for Li Yingjun, he ranked 50th in the round case, just at the end of the crane, this position is quite dangerous, and if there is a mistake in the next few games, it is easy to be squeezed out by the people on the sub-list.

Li Yingjun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard that his friend was on the sub-list: "Then Brother Yuanhao will work harder in the next few games, and there is still a chance!" ”

Cai Yue nodded and said: "Ziyu, you too, the fiftieth place in the round case is very dangerous, don't let me out of the circle at that time, but squeeze you down!" ”

Li Yingjun smiled: "It depends on whether you have this ability, by the way, Brother Xu must be out of the circle, right?" ”

Xu Jin nodded and said, "I was lucky to enter the inner circle!" ”

Cai and Li both said enviously: "Congratulations to Brother Xu, you passed the county exam ahead of schedule!" ”

"Tongxi!" Xu Jin smiled and nodded, and he was a little excited in his heart, entering the inner circle meant that he would have to pass the next few games without taking the test, which was naturally very cool.

Of course, Xu Jin still decided to continue to participate in the next few games. At the beginning, Xu Jin didn't have much thought about the head of the county exam, but now that he has taken the first exam, he naturally wants to fight for the first case, after all, the head of the county exam must pass the government test, which is equivalent to a straight pass to the hospital exam, and one pass is equal to passing two passes, so why not?

If you want to win the first place in the county test, you must participate in the next few games, because the results of the next few games will affect the ranking, and now ranking first does not mean that you can always be ranked first, and the comprehensive results of several games can be ranked first in order to become the first in the county test.

"Hahaha, as expected, I entered the inner circle, the second place in the inner circle, who dares to disagree?"

At this moment, a burst of arrogant laughter sounded in the crowd, Xu Jin and the others followed the prestige, and it was Li Chen who saw the wild laughter.

Although the people around him are very unhappy with Li Chen's arrogance, they do have the ability to be crazy, and they are second in the inner circle, which must pass the county test.

"Congratulations, Brother Li!"

"Congratulations to Brother Wanzhao, the head of the case is about to be in the bag!"

"Brother Wanzhao, remember to treat you when you pick up the head of the case!"

The surrounding classmates complimented and patted each other, and Li Chen said proudly: "That's a must, after the final results of the county test come out, I invite everyone to Linjiang Building to get together!" ”

Cai Yue smiled coldly: "It's only the second in the inner circle, and the first person is not shown by him!" ”

Li Yingjun nodded and agreed: "Exactly, this son is too crazy, even if he is lucky enough to pick up the head of the county test, he will definitely not go far." ”

Xu Jin smiled lightly: "Why bother with him, let's go, go back to Wenshu, and prepare for tomorrow's second game is serious." With that, he turned around and squeezed out of the crowd.

"Hey, isn't that the leader of the Cold Cooling Society, Xu Dingding? Can the first game be out of the circle? When Li Chen saw Xu Jin, who was about to leave, he immediately shouted loudly, and instantly everyone's eyes looked at this side.

Xu Jin didn't look back, and continued to squeeze outside, Li Chen thought that Xu Jin was weak-hearted, and laughed: "Xu Jin, you are in such a hurry to leave, it won't be that you haven't even been on the sub-list, it's too embarrassing!" ”

Xu Jin couldn't help frowning, Cai Yue stood up and said angrily: "Li Chen, you are so messy, Brother Xu is in the inner circle for the first time, what are you so crazy about!" ”

Li Chen was a little embarrassed, he didn't expect Xu Jin to be out of the circle, and it was still in the inner circle, but he expected that the ranking should not be as high as his own, so he sneered: "It seems that Xu is sure that he is lucky this time, but the end is not certain!" ”

Xu Jin didn't bother to pay attention to him at this time, and waited for the four exams to be released, and slapped him in the face with facts.

"Brother Yuanhao, Brother Ziyu, let's go!" Xu Jin indifferently continued to turn around.

Although Cai Yue and Li Yingjun are very unhappy with Li Chen's aggressiveness, they are ranked second in the inner circle, and their grades are not as good as others, and it is boring to argue.

The three of them left the Confucianism Department and returned to Xinjiang Academy, and Cai Yue finally couldn't help asking: "Brother Xu, take the liberty of asking, how many are you in the inner circle?" ”

Cai Yue was really angry with Li Chen, and wanted to ask Xu Jin how many places he ranked, if the difference was not far, if he played well in the next few games, he might catch up and overtake, and if the difference was too far, there was no hope.

Xu Jin smiled and said, "Is it important to rank first?" ”

Cai Yue nodded and said, "Of course it's important, if Brother Xu is within ten, he may overtake Li Chen in the next few games!" ”

Xu Jin smiled: "Why do you want to overtake him, I will be above him in the first game!" ”

Cai Yue and Li Yingjun were stunned for a moment, and then lost their voices: "You are the first?" ”

Li Chen ranked second in the inner circle, Xu Jin said that above him, what is it that is not the first place?

Xu Jin nodded!

Cai Yue and Li Chen glanced at each other in shock, they were already very surprised that Xu Jin could enter the inner circle, but they didn't expect it to be the first in the inner circle, demon!

"Why didn't Brother Xu say it just now!" Cai Yue was extremely annoyed, if Xu Jin said it just now, Li Chen would still be arrogant, and slapped his face in public until it crackled!

Xu Jin said calmly: "It's just the first scene, there's nothing to show off!" After saying that, he marched into the lecture hall and sat down in his seat to read quietly.

Cai Yue and Li Yingjun glanced at each other, in addition to admiration, they were also a little ashamed, both of them were a few years older than Xu Jin, but in front of Xu Jin, they felt that they were as naïve as children, and their qi cultivation kung fu was 108,000 miles away!

So the two of them also silently returned to their seats to read quietly, preparing for the second session of tomorrow's county exam.
