Chapter 44: Palace Competition II

Mei Yi walked angrily to the shore of Lake Melosia to watch the wild ducks. The Duchess walked to Serena and admired the painting carefully, with a look of shock on her face: "He can even draw?

I have never seen such a beautiful and vivid painting!"

There is a reason for what the Duchess said. The paintings of this era were influenced by religion, and the expressions of the characters are serious and old-fashioned. The technique and artistic conception of this painting, which is full of youth and moving atmosphere, are several levels different.

The eyes of Viscount Yingwu, the Queen and other contestants were also full of astonishment. No one dared to look down upon this young human anymore. In the face of the overwhelming power gap, their psychological advantages based on their status as elves, goblins and nobles were almost

Nothing remains.

After all the contestants finished their paintings, the court painters scored all the paintings. When they saw Mei Yi's paintings, they seemed to have been cast a restraining spell. They couldn't help nodding in admiration and unanimously gave Mei Yi full marks.

The third test was a grammar test, which required writing an article with no limit on the number of words on the theme of Lake Meloshia. Meiyi spent ten seconds writing two lines and then ran to the lake to see the wild ducks.

Seeing how casually Meiyi treated the selection exam, Yingwu was about to have a fit. She picked up Meiyi's answer sheet and looked at it. It clearly said "A water pillow can make a mountain tilt up, and a sailboat can float around the moon.", and her heart suddenly moved.

Hum, who has been impressed by Su Shi’s poems?

The fourth item is a mathematics test with only one question: prove that pi (the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter) is a constant value.

Mei Yi spent a few minutes to write out the proof process, using the method of calculus. He was afraid that this too advanced method would not be accepted by the elf judges, so he used Euclid's method of exhaustion plus proof by contradiction to prove it.

The queen said to the duchess in admiration: "Alicia, neither the king nor I believe that "The Beauty of Mathematics" can be written by a sixteen-year-old human boy. Now it seems that we are paranoid. He is painting

His attainments in literature and literature are simply unfathomable, and Esther’s vision is truly admirable.”

The Duchess said: "Sister, you will not believe that he wrote "The Beauty of Mathematics" just to help Serena and several other friends improve their math scores, and told the stories in "Selected Flower Spirit Stories" just to help Serena.

To relieve his boredom. This time, he was escorted by Serena to take the exam, and he didn't want to come at all. He probably didn't draw that painting to win the competition, otherwise why not draw the queen? "

The queen was surprised and said: "Why don't you come? The princess's tutor's annual salary is 200 gold coins, which is comparable to the annual fiefdom income of a small and medium-sized noble. He is directly awarded the title of viscount. Although he does not have a fiefdom, his annual salary is 200 gold coins. How much is this?

It’s a position that’s hard to come by. Not to mention that the person he’s responsible for teaching is the future queen.”

The Duchess smiled bitterly and said: "Queen, let's wait until he passes the fifth test. The fifth test is the martial arts ability test. I told you that although he became a spiritual power user because of Esther's eyes,

I couldn't condense the spirit, and that's why I became discouraged and lost my true spirit. As for the swordsmanship, it's also a mess."

The queen said: "Let's take a look first and then talk. The princess's teacher will make me feel uneasy if he is too weak or too strong."

Before the martial arts ability test started, Serena said to Meiyi: "I am very happy that you can listen to my opinion and participate in the princess tutor selection competition. Until now, you have been crushing other contestants, which proves that my wife is not wrong about the person."

, I also made an explanation to the queen. The last item is your weakness, please withdraw from the competition, I don’t want you to be injured unnecessarily.”

Meiyi picked up a big sword, tilted it slightly, waved it a few times and said: "Try it, it would be too embarrassing to quit the competition like this. Look, those who can't solve the math problems also quit the competition."

Is that so? The income of four hundred gold coins per year is quite attractive, and the most important thing is the title of viscount. Will you have to bow when you see me in the future?"

"Don't even think about it! I don't care about you!" Serena turned back to the Duchess angrily, but her eyes never left Meiyi.

The format of the competition is very simple. It is a one-on-one competition with the elf guards of the palace. This link is not surprising. The elf kingdom has a strong martial arts style, and almost everyone in the noble family practices martial arts. In this era, there is no selection examination similar to the imperial examination.

Knights of great lords who performed meritorious service on the battlefield were the main channels for advancement for commoners and minor nobles.

To everyone's surprise, the person responsible for testing their martial arts abilities was the beautiful and cold-hearted Miss Sakurawu. Miss Sakurawu raised her long hair and held a wooden sword with the top dipped in lime water.

Say to the contestants: "To save time, we won't do one-on-one anymore. You can do it twenty-one."

These contestants were angered by Yingwu's arrogant attitude, and rushed forward with wooden swords in hand. After all, they had been practicing swordsmanship since childhood, and these noble children actually formed an attack echelon without anyone's command and rushed towards Yingwu.

In the next two minutes, the Queen, Duke and Serena saw a scene that they could not believe.

Sakura Dance was flying through the crowd like a petal, and the whole person seemed to be weightless. In just one minute, ten people except Mei Yi were hit by swords one after another, and white spots appeared.

Serena's heart skipped a beat, and she thought to herself: As expected of someone close to the queen, she is really agile. If it weren't for the bonus of wind spiritual skills, her swordsmanship would really be no match for the girl in front of her.

When Yingwu raised the wooden sword in her hand high and struck Meiyi's head hard, Serena thought with some gloating: Just wait for this blow. Who told you not to listen to me?

As she thought about it, her face turned red again, and she thought to herself: I am not his, and he seems to have no reason to listen to me.

Just when Serena's heart was full of drama, a shocking scene happened. Just as Yingwu was slashing with the wooden sword in her hand, Meiyi's sword had already hit her head.

Yingwu was startled, immediately stopped the sword in her hand, threw the sword and admitted defeat.

Everyone's eyes were shocked. Meiyi looked at her hands and said in shock: "Am I so lucky?" He then happily waved to Serena and said, "See, I won! Fortunately, I won.

I hid in the back!"

The palace staff all laughed, and Serena covered her face and said, "Madam, why did you recommend him to be the princess's teacher? The Duke's Palace has been completely embarrassed by him!"

The Duchess said strangely: "Since the Duke's Palace has been completely humiliated, why are you still smiling?"

The girl's worries were suddenly exposed in front of her face. Serena was immediately ashamed and said "ma'am" angrily, and angrily hid aside, not forgetting to give Meiyi a fierce look. (To be continued.
