Xu Yan glanced at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing closed his mouth.

Glancing at him, looking anxiously at his two princes of Chu and Jin, a hint of helplessness flashed on Xu Yan's face.

Then let people continue to take the sixth question.

The topic was brought up, but Xu Yan was not in a hurry to let it begin.

Instead, he looked at Lin Xiaoyue opposite.

"The difficulty of the first five questions is average, but the situation of the next five questions will be different."

"If you can't solve it, the old man suggests that you can skip it." Xu Yan said.

After speaking, he also looked in the direction where Liu Wuji was.

Xu Qing and Meng Lin felt a lot more at ease when they heard what Xu Yan said.

Even the two princes of Chu and Jin, who were still restless just now, calmed down and looked arrogantly at the courtiers of Yan State again.

Only on the Yan State side, the courtiers were discussing again.

One by one, they looked at Xu Yan and the others on guard, and at the same time, they also looked at Lin Xiaoyue expectantly.

Liu Wuji smiled at Xu Yan, then looked at Lin Xiaoyue who came over, and nodded.

Lin Xiaoyue then looked back at Xu Yan.

"Thank you Elder Xu for reminding me." He bowed to Xu Yan.

Xu Yan nodded, and this made people start the topic.

Next, as before, Liang Chengcai read the question for Lin Xiaoyue.

Mo Fei, who was on the side, also took notes while reading the questions.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Lin Xiaoyue.

I only saw that she was recorded in the booklet as before.

After listening to the topic, as before, continue to draw on the booklet.

At this moment, in the eyes of the courtiers of Dayan, Lin Xiaoyue's booklet seemed to be full of magic.

They felt that as long as Lin Xiaoyue scribbled on it, the answer would soon be solved.

Xu Qing looked at Lin Xiaoyue and felt a little relieved when she saw that she was more hesitant than when she was doing the questions before.

If she can't figure it out, she can't figure it out!

The last five questions were his master's own questions, and each question was extremely difficult.

Even he, after seeing it, did not find a solution to the problem.

Compared to Xu Qing, Xu Yan had a solemn expression.

Before, he despised this woman.

Can she be valued by Liu Wuji and be chosen to represent Yan Country to compete with them, how could she be average?

However, it doesn't matter.

The next five questions are the real confrontation between them.

He also wanted to see that Liu Wuji's people could solve some of his problems.

Lin Xiaoyue really felt that this sixth question was far more difficult than the previous questions.

However, it is still within the scope of her handling.

After just overthinking it twice, Lin Xiaoyue made her thinking clear.

Immediately, the answer came out quickly.

Seeing this, Liang Chengcai and Mo Fei admired Lin Xiaoyue.

This time, because they didn't have a clear idea, the two of them couldn't help Lin Xiaoyue check the calculation.

Therefore, Lin Xiaoyue actually explained the problem-solving ideas to the two on the spot.

After the two understand it, let them check the results.

After confirming that the final results of the three were the same, Lin Xiaoyue answered.

As soon as the answer came out, everyone looked at Xu Yan.

Some people want to hear Xu Yan announce that the answer is correct, while others want to announce that they are wrong.

Unfortunately, the result will only satisfy one party.

Only Xu Yan said with a serious face: "Correct. Go to the seventh question."

In an instant, the hall was filled with excitement.

Dayan's courtiers were discussing again, and they were happy that they had expected success just now.

The sixth princess also looked at Emperor Yan with excitement.

"I just said that Mr. will be able to answer correctly! Mr.'s arithmetic strength is unparalleled in the world!" His eyes were full of admiration for Lin Xiaoyue.

Emperor Yan did not correct the exaggeration in the words of the sixth princess, but nodded with a smile.

That girl is indeed capable!

Xu Qing, who was behind Xu Yan, grabbed the hem of his clothes with his hand.

Because the force was too strong, the blue veins almost did not show on the back of the hand.

how come? Did you get it right again?

The person chosen by the national teacher of Yan country is stronger in arithmetic than him, and much stronger...

No, his master was as famous as the national teacher of Yan State.

As the master's disciple, how could he be weaker than the opponent's disciple? !

Just now she answered the question correctly again, it must be because of luck! It must be so!

Also, there are four more problems to follow.

She can't get it out!

Xu Yan also frowned at this time.

Others stood far away, and they might not have seen clearly what just happened across from them.

But he stood not far from them, watching and listening to what happened on the opposite side and what they said.

The woman Liu Wuji chose not only solved his problem.

She also explained the problem-solving ideas to the other two people, and asked them to help her check the answer.

She has done so much in such a short time. Terrible...

Yes, he actually thought of the word "terrible".

Although some fear has risen in his heart, Xu Yan still has a steady expression.

There are four more questions.

After the seventh question came up, Xu Yan ignored the sights around him, especially the sights of the two princes of Chu and Jin. Staring straight at Lin Xiaoyue and others.

On the other hand, Lin Xiaoyue didn't care, and continued to follow the previous procedure to solve the problem, check the calculation and answer the question.

Soon the seventh question, the eighth question, and even the ninth question were all answered correctly.

At this time, the courtiers of the Yan Kingdom were no longer nervous one by one, and their faces were full of smiles.

Some people, even inadvertently, looked in the direction of the two princes of Chu and Jin.

Seeing the angry and helpless appearance of the two princes made me feel better.

Xu Qing's face was already pale, and the sweat on his back had soaked his clothes.

It's over, it's over.

That Mrs. Li is so powerful, they are afraid they will lose this match.

Yes, despite the presence of his master, he has lost confidence now.

But they can't afford to lose.

The master agreed to his request and went out to the mountain at the invitation of Emperor Jin.

Emperor Jin treated them with respect to their master and apprentice, and Emperor Chu also had high hopes for them.

If this time comes back, how will Emperor Jin treat their master and apprentice? How do people in the world view them?

At that time, the world will only spread rumors that his master has a false name and is not worthy of the same name as the national master of Yan.

It was said that his master was no match for someone who had only been trained for a few days after being selected by the State of Yan.

Master's reputation is ruined, what kind of reputation can he have as master's apprentice?

At that time, neither Jin nor Chu can tolerate him, so what use is there for him?

At this time, Xu Qing, how high-spirited when he set out to Yan Kingdom, how depressed he is at this moment.

Xu Yan didn't care about Xu Qing. Or at the moment, he didn't even bother to pay attention to Xu Qing.

"You - this is beyond the old man's expectations." Xu Yan looked at Lin Xiaoyue opposite. There was some tiredness in his tone.

Lin Xiaoyue smiled.

"Thank you Elder Xu for your compliment." Chong Xu Yan bowed his hands.

Xu Yan sighed.

Immediately, he looked at the direction behind Lin Xiaoyue, where Liu Wuji was.

He asked Lin Xiaoyue again, "Liu Wuji, how long has it been cultivated?"

Lin Xiaoyue was taken aback.

how long? one day?

"Haha, it doesn't matter!" Before Lin Xiaoyue could answer, Xu Yan laughed.

"Brother Liu, you have cultivated a good disciple. You lose..." Immediately, Xu Yan said to Liu Wuji.

Liu Wuji smiled and glanced at Lin Xiaoyue who was a little dazed with satisfaction.

"It's not wrong to lose." He replied.

"Yue'er's talent in arithmetic is stronger than that of the old man. It has long been out of blue." Liu Wuji said.

In one sentence, it was confirmed that Lin Xiaoyue was his own disciple.

It's not that he is greedy for a master's reputation, but that he has to save some follow-up troubles for his granddaughter.

Xu Yan's eyes were startled.

Then he looked at Lin Xiaoyue again.

"Blue is out of blue." He said.

Immediately, his eyes changed, and Xu Yan spoke again.

"That being the case, the tenth question, the old man will change the question. Please ask Mrs. Li to enlighten me." After saying that, Xu Yan actually bowed to Lin Xiaoyue.

Everyone was surprised.

On the throne, Emperor Yan frowned directly.

The ministers of Yan State also talked a lot, but they didn't want Lin Xiaoyue to agree to change the subject.

Obviously, Xu Yan changed the subject.

The changed questions are definitely more difficult than the questions prepared in advance.

Seeing this, the two princes of Chu and Jin immediately spoke up.

Crying to change the subject.

For a time, the hall was noisy.

Lin Xiaoyue is in a dilemma.

"Haha, it's okay." Unexpectedly, Liu Wuji suddenly said. Actually agreed for her.

Emperor Yan and the courtiers of the Yan Kingdom all looked at their national teachers. Although they were a little annoyed, no one dared to say anything.

Master National Teacher is so confident in Madam Li, they have to trust Master National Teacher.

In addition, if Mrs. Li can completely defeat the envoys of Chu Jin this time, it will be a good thing for them to win even more beautifully.

Thinking of this, the courtiers fell silent.

"If that's the case, then ask Mr. Xu to ask the question." Lin Xiaoyue accepted it calmly, and saluted Xu Yan.

Xu Yan looked at Lin Xiaoyue's eyes with a little more appreciation.

"Before the question, the old man has to speak clearly in advance."

"Elder Xu, please speak." Lin Xiaoyue was still respectful.

"This question, the old man has no solution." Xu Yan said.

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the hall.

What? No answer?

Questions without answers can also be used as test questions?

Then Mrs. Li gave the answer, how to judge whether the answer is correct?

Is it wrong to answer yes or no?

This Xu Yan, who is as famous as their national teacher, how could he be so shameless?

In the face of the comments of the courtiers of the Yan Kingdom, there was no turbulence on Xu Yan's face.

He did not take it seriously when he heard that the two princes of Chu and Jin refuted the courtiers of Yan State and refuted his "shameless behavior".

"Hehe-" Suddenly Xu Yan laughed twice.

The hall fell silent for a moment.

Seeing that Lin Xiaoyue's expression did not change, Xu Yancai spoke again.

"Although the old man has no answer. But after Madam answers, verify it and see if the answer is correct."

Xu Yan added: "This question was left by the teacher before his death."

"The old man is ashamed. After more than ten years of research, he has not been able to solve the answer."

Xu Yan said, and looked at Liu Wuji again.

"Brother Liu should know."

Liu Wuji was called and nodded with a smile.

"Um."

Then, she looked at Lin Xiaoyue happily.

What to say? Coincidentally?

One of the questions asked by his granddaughter before happened to be the same question left by Xu Yan's master.

Yes, it is the nine-square grid calculation problem.

He remembered that Xu Yan's master left a topic that filled in the numbers from one to nine into the nine-square grid, so that the three numbers horizontally, vertically and diagonally in the nine-square grid would add up to fifteen.

He had tried to answer this question before.

Tried multiple times but couldn't solve it. Later gave up.

Yesterday, when he saw the question from his granddaughter, he was shocked. But didn't say much.

Speaking of which, the questions asked by his granddaughter were more difficult than those left by Xu Yan's master.

It is required to fill in the nine numbers from ten to eighteen into the nine-square grid. The three numbers that are horizontal, vertical and diagonal in the nine-square grid are all equal to forty-two after adding up.

Since it is a more difficult problem, his granddaughter can solve it.

For his granddaughter, Xu Yan's next topic is no problem.

Liu Wuji took his eyes away from Lin Xiaoyue.

Immediately, Chong Xu Yan smiled.

"The old man has always been very sorry for not being able to solve that problem. Today, it's okay to let Yue'er try it." Liu Wuji said.

After speaking, he looked at Lin Xiaoyue again.

In an instant, everyone in the arena focused their attention on Lin Xiaoyue.

What? Ask Mrs. Li to solve the problem that even Master Xu Yan and Master Guo Shi were unable to solve?

Master Guo Shi said before that Mrs. Li is now out of blue. Is this statement true?

Hearing Liu Wuji say this, Xu Yan nodded.

He immediately stepped forward, borrowed the pen and paper of Lin Xiaoyue and others, and drew a large nine-square grid on a piece of paper.

After that, Xu Qing, who was on the side, lifted the paper and showed it to people in all directions in the hall.

"This question can be answered not only by Mrs. Li, but also by the officials of Dayan. If someone answers correctly, the tenth question is over." Xu Yan said.

As soon as these words came out, the officials of Dayan were excited.

The two princes of Chu and Jin, although somewhat dissatisfied, did not say much.

For questions that neither Xu Yan nor the national teacher of Yan State could answer, even if the officials of Dayan also participated in answering the questions, they would not even think of answering them.

When Emperor Yan saw Xu Yan's painting of nine palaces, he subconsciously glanced at Lin Xiaoyue.

I thought to myself, it seems a little familiar.

Not only Emperor Yan, but also the Sixth Princess, Liang Chengcai and Mo Fei who did the same thing.

Because of Lin Xiaoyue's topic, they have all met before.

When the hall became quiet again, Xu Yan said: "The question of this old man is to fill in the nine numbers from one to nine, so that the three numbers horizontally, vertically and diagonally in the nine-square grid will be added together. All equal to fifteen."

As soon as Xu Yan finished speaking, the sixth princess and the others looked at the Jiugongge in Xu Qing's hands, and their eyes were straight.

Although it's not the same question, it's really... a type...

Moreover, Mrs. Li's questions were even more difficult than those given by Master Xu Yan's teacher.

At this time, everyone was not worried at all.

This question may not be solved by others, but Mrs. Li is definitely not a problem.

Emperor Yan also took a deep look and glanced at his national teacher.

I understand the look in Lin Xiaoyue's eyes from the previous national teacher.

Master Guo Shi said just now that he can't solve this problem, is that true?

The questions that Mrs. Li posed before were really her own ideas?

Emperor Yan smiled and didn't think any more.

Right now, all you need to know is that in this match against Chu Jin, they will definitely win.
