Chapter 33 Exam Eve
The re-examination was held three days after the initial test. Half of the more than 4000 candidates were eliminated in the preliminary test. The remaining half will be re-examined in five courts, and more than half will be eliminated. The remaining 300 candidates will take the final test, and finally 30 people will be admitted.

The exam for the re-examination is also very simple. It is still a literary exam. If you pass three or two, you will pass, but it has become a fifty-step line shooting, which is much more difficult.

Li Ye still participated in the re-examination at the left-back polo field, and he was still assigned to the fifth lane, but this time the fifth lane's cricket was replaced with a new one, and only one pass was passed in the fifth lane of the preliminary test. The candidates' opinions were too great.

Li Ye was the ninth to appear on the stage, and soon it was his turn.

Li Ye galloped on his horse and swung a ball. Fifty steps away, the polo went into the hole with precision and hit the first ball.

An official stood with his hands behind his back in the shed behind the fifth lane, watching Li Ye play with complicated eyes.

This person is the Secretary of the Polo Department, named Chen Tai, who is also the chief examiner of this year's professional polo player qualification examination.

Chen Tai was actually just a rank nine official. Yang Hui approached him the day before yesterday and asked him directly to prohibit a candidate named Li Ye from passing the exam.

Yang Hui represented the attitude of the Yang family. Chen Tai didn't dare to provoke him, so he quickly agreed. Unexpectedly, that afternoon, there was an extra guarantee letter on his desk, which turned out to be King Si Ning guaranteeing for Li Ye.

King Si Ning then sent eunuch Wang Shouzhong to remind himself that he hoped the game would be fair.

This Li Ye turned out to be a member of King Si Ning, and it was only then that Chen Tai realized that things were not that simple.

At this time, Li Ye's second ball went into the hole with the same precision, and the trajectory was exactly the same as the first ball.

Chen Tai could see clearly that from Li Ye's swing and hitting the ball to the polo entering the hole, every step was extremely precise, the two balls had exactly the same flight trajectory and the position of entering the hole, this is definitely a master.

If he didn't interfere, Li Ye would definitely pass the exam, but if he interfered, wouldn't he be offending King Si Ning?That is also the person who can pinch himself to death as soon as he reaches out.

Dilemma!
Chen Tai sighed, and went back to the official room worried.

At the end of the retest, Qiao Bin was eliminated as expected. At the [-]-step line, he didn't hit a single ball. Du Wang was also eliminated, and he only hit one ball.

Ma Jinsong passed, he hit two of three goals, missed the second goal, and scored the third goal by luck.

A total of [-] people passed the re-examination and were qualified to participate in the final examination. The final examination will be tomorrow at the Zuowei Dama Stadium in the imperial city.

In a tavern in West City, four people sat together to discuss tomorrow's exam.

Qiao Bin was not depressed. He knew that he weighed two pounds. He had never scored the [-]-step line. He was already very happy to pass the initial test.

He and his father have already agreed that if he fails the polo player exam, he will continue to study at the county school. When he is 16, his father will find a way to send him to the prefecture school. He was sent to Taixue to study.

Du Wang is also not depressed, he is a native of Duling, although his father is not a legitimate son, but the Du family has a lot of connections, so it is not a problem to find a fat job for him, but he still has to go to the county school to study.

As for Ma Jinsong, his family is a big businessman, one of the top ten wine merchants in Chang'an, and his family has plenty of money. He lost [-] guan to Li Ye before without batting an eye.

So everyone is concerned about Li Ye's exam tomorrow.

Ma Jinsong held up the wine cup and said to Li Ye: "The final test is also called the double final. It adopts the elimination system and is eliminated in two steps. First, it is a group of ten people. If you beat your opponent, even if you pass the exam, it's more cruel, but it's also very interesting, and you can buy a ticket to enter, and you can also participate in betting."

Qiao Bin laughed and said, "Du Wang and I are going to go, but we will bet heavily on you and make a lot of money!"

Li Ye took out 50 taels of silver from his bag, handed it to Qiao Bin and said with a smile, "Help me bet on it too, bet on me to win."

"no problem!"

Qiao Bin accepted the money and said, "Let's think about it, what will Yang Hui do?"

Du Wang said slowly: "In fact, there will be accidents every year, either the cue is broken, or the horse has a problem, because the competition is very cruel, it is inevitable that some people will use dirty methods, all candidates will be very careful, especially Li Xiandi, the last It is best to find a helper, because you are going to draw lots, and at this time you need a helper to take care of the horses and clubs for you."

Li Ye immediately thought of Zhang Xiaopang, so he said to Qiao Bin, "Buy me a ticket, and I will take Zhang Xiaopang there!"

Qiao Bin smiled and said, "No problem, I'll buy the ticket for you."

"Let's talk about it, is there anything else to be careful about?"

Du Wang thought for a while and said: "Others are decided by lottery, unless I manipulate the lottery, I can't think of anything else, under the watchful eyes of everyone, if you can't get in, you can say you didn't get in!

There is also the final qualification review, I guess Yang Hui will think of a way at this step, it depends on whether King Si Ning's guarantee is effective or not. "

.........

Yang Hui also got the news that the Polo Administration refused to review Li Ye's qualifications on the grounds that Li Ye had a guarantee.

Yang Hui felt strange, but Chen Tai agreed without hesitation, why did he pay attention again, and he hurriedly sent someone to check the situation.

Soon, his subordinates reported to him that it was King Si Ning who had sent someone to put pressure on Chen Tai. Chen Tai did not dare to offend King Si Ning, so he canceled Li Ye's qualification review.

It turned out that it was King Si Ning who made the move, and Yang Hui couldn't sit still, so he quickly found his uncle Yang Guozhong.

"You should go to your father for this kind of thing. What do you want me to do?"

Yang Guozhong really didn't like this nephew, Mrs. Guo Guo entrusted the polo team to herself, but the team leader was snatched away by this bastard, it should have belonged to his son.

Yang Hui laughed and said: "My father has gone to Shuzhong, not in the capital, so my nephew can only help my uncle. Besides, this is also a matter of the Yang family. If I lose, won't it hurt the face of the Yang family?"

"You also know that this is a matter of the Yang family, so why didn't you discuss it with me beforehand, and insisted on provoking King Si Ning?"

Yang Hui said embarrassingly: "My nephew didn't know his relationship with King Si Ning at the time, I just thought he was a little ant!"

"Hmph! Self-righteous, you only came to me now when you got into trouble. Forget it, you go tell the Polo Bureau and let him weigh it. Is the face of the Yang family or King Si Ning's face important?"

Yang Hui hesitated, his face was still a little weaker than that of King Si Ning, "Why don't uncle write a letter to my nephew!"

"shit!"

Yang Guozhong glared at him fiercely, "You want me to write a letter to deal with a brat in a poor area? If it gets out, where will I put my face?"

"The nephew wants to use some extraordinary means, does uncle agree?"

Yang Guozhong said coldly: "What method you want to use is your business, don't ask me, I don't know anything!"

"Nephew understands, thank uncle for his support!"

Yang Hui saluted and left in a hurry.

Yang Guozhong's eldest son, Yang Xuan, worried: "Without my father's substantial support, I am afraid that the Polo Bureau will not offend King Si Ning, and it is very likely that Yang Hui will lose."

"Isn't it good that he lost?"

Yang Guozhong said coldly: "He lost, and the face of the Yang family was shaved. The position of polo team leader will belong to you. I wish for it!"

It turned out that his father had this idea, Yang Xuan hurriedly said, "Then is father going tomorrow?"

Yang Guozhong shook his head, "Go and see for me, I won't go."

"The child understands!"

At nightfall, Pei Sanniang was asked to help urgently. A woman's water broke and she was about to give birth.

Pei Sanniang is a female doctor, and most women would go to him when they are sick, but she seldom does midwife delivery.

Li Ye came to the backyard of the temple as usual, and Zhang Xiaopang was there, but he didn't see Pei Min.

In the afternoon, Li Ye told Zhang Xiaopang, and Zhang Xiaopang readily agreed to accompany Li Ye to the exam tomorrow. He practiced martial arts for a month, and he made rapid progress. He was no match for Ma Jinsong before, but now Ma Jinsong is probably no longer a match for him.

Of course, Pei Min is also teaching him to control, to control his violent temper, and not to fight with others easily.

Tomorrow he had to get up early, and Li Ye finished his practice in less than an hour.

He climbed onto the well platform wet and wet. He no longer needed the well rope, and could easily climb up the well wall. This was also one of his gains from one month of martial arts training.

However, Li Ye saw Pei Min unexpectedly, and Pei Min apologized to him, "I'm sorry, but I couldn't keep your horse?"

Li Ye was startled, "What happened to my horse?"

Pei Min sighed.

Li Ye put on his clothes three times and two times, and ran towards his home. He ran home in one breath, but his mother hadn't come back yet. Aunt Mu saw Pei Min following behind, so she hid in the house in fright.

Li Ye ran straight to the backyard. His horse was lying on the ground, its legs were twitching weakly, and it was foaming at the mouth.

Li Ye knelt down slowly, gently stroking this very spiritual old horse, two lines of tears slowly flowed from the corners of the old horse's eyes, and the afterglow of life disappeared in its eyes

"And this club!"

Pei Min handed him the cue that had been cut in two, and said apologetically, "I'm also worried about tonight, I went to take care of your mother, and it turned out..."

Li Ye wiped away his tears, took a deep breath and said, "I was careless. I will keep this lesson in my heart. I must make Yang Hui pay the price."

Pei Min urged urgently: "Don't be reckless, how can you beat the Yang family?"

Li Ye shook his head slowly, "It won't be now, a gentleman will take revenge, it won't be too late in six years, I will endure until the day I kill him!"

Pei Min patted him on the shoulder, "You can use iron and wood clubs for the cue, which is allowed in the competition. The horses will temporarily use my horse tomorrow, and I will give you one later!"

"Thank you uncle, someone still owes me a horse!" At this moment, Li Ye's heart was ignited with overwhelming fighting spirit.
