The Wuhou Temple houses not only Prime Minister Zhuge Liang, but also figures such as Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, and many others.

Their statues are close to what they look like in later generations, and their incense continues to burn brightly.

Behind the Wuhou Temple, surrounded by peach trees, Li Ge and Jiang Wei sat facing each other, enjoying the beautiful scenery of Chang'an and drinking wine with Jiang Boyue, who was dressed in a feather fan and turban.

The autumn wind was blowing gently, and leaves were falling. Jiang Boyue suddenly smiled: "Back then, the Prime Minister was just like this, drinking his last cup of wine with me."

Li Ge remained silent.

“Ziyin,” Jiang Wei turned his head, a glimmer of light still seeming in his cloudy old eyes, “Do you know what I am most grateful for in my life?”

"It was meeting the Prime Minister, and then... meeting you all."

He reached out and slipped a pre-written silk scroll into Li Ge's hand; it was a newly copied copy of "Ji Chu Shi Biao".

“Wei has fulfilled his life’s wish and is tired. He can finally stop and meet the late emperor, the prime minister, and His Majesty.” He smiled and patted Li Ge’s shoulder firmly.

The wind blew through the peach orchard, carrying fallen leaves to the two of them.

Jiang Boyue laughed, a hearty laugh. In the cold wind, he took off his clothes, revealing his aged and scarred body.

"Ziyin, today I entrust my orphan to you. Take good care of this world for me, and take good care of Beide for me."

Then, he looked at the Wuhou Temple again, raised his wine cup, and drank it all in one gulp.

"Prime Minister, it's done! It's done! It has brought the Han Dynasty back from the dead!"

After speaking, the cup fell to the ground, and in the cold wind, Jiang Boyue breathed his last at the age of 82.

……

Looking at the two people in the peach garden in the distance, Xiaoye suddenly remembered the firelight in Luoyang that night, and the fat old man who recited "Memorial to the Throne" in the fire.

So this is what they call "integrity".

She seemed to understand a little.

Afterwards, they all felt that leaving this body completely was no longer a fast-forwarded experience, but rather like having completely completed their mission and preparing to leave this world forever.

They looked down and saw the "stand-ins" of their former selves still inside Ji Han.

Cao Ziyin, Yilian, Xiaoye, and Valerie established the "Jinyifu" (Imperial Guard), which monitored all officials, watched over the world, and acted first and reported later. With the special permission of the emperor, it became the first formalized secret service agency in history.

Liu Xuan selected officials one by one according to the names in the "Memorial on the Expedition" and at the same time accepted the suggestion to implement a parallel system of selecting officials through the imperial examination and the recommendation system.

Although Liu Xuan was not a man of great talent, he was more than capable of maintaining the status quo. For decades, he governed the country with benevolence and righteousness, allowing the people to recuperate and thrive. With the assistance of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, the country became prosperous and the people lived in peace and contentment.

After his son succeeded to the throne, he continued the policy of recuperation and education, and educated the Five Barbarians, gradually making them Sinicized and eventually assimilated into the Han Dynasty.

Centuries later, people gradually strayed from their original intentions, alienating virtuous ministers and befriending sycophants, causing the Shu Han dynasty to disintegrate. This led to a rebellion led by the Yang family, who overthrew the Han dynasty and established the Sui dynasty. The Sui dynasty lasted only two generations before the Tang dynasty was established...

[The Heavens Have Fallen: Dungeon Completed!]

"The heavens have fallen, civilization has been interrupted, barbarism has taken over, and cannibalism is the underlying nature of civilization."

"If we want to avoid completely degenerating into a barbaric race that builds islands, raises captives, and eats people, we need to break this day, rebuild order, and ignite the dawn. We will be the fuel before this dawn, until the very last moment."

"The savior is not someone with clever tricks, but someone who inherits the flame from their predecessors, rekindles it, and takes another step forward in civilization, inheritance, and the future, even if that future may not be perfect."

"The world does not belong to us, the future belongs to them, we are merely saviors. Ultimately, the world belongs to them."

"In the name of the King, we rekindle the torch and sprout new buds, as always, without regret or remorse. This is the true path to salvation, and also the path to rekindle civilization."

[The exam is over. All candidates are requested to leave the examination room in an orderly manner.]

As Li Ge gradually regained consciousness, she also felt as if she had been in another world.

They had actually spent more than ten days in the early Jin Dynasty. Although most of the time afterward was fast-forwarded and skipped, it still made them feel uncomfortable.

I checked my watch; only four hours had passed.

However, compared to the last monthly exam, they were much more used to it this time. This feeling of being in another world came and went quickly, and they quickly adjusted. Meanwhile, some people had already started looking at the leaderboard.

Just then, a gasp of surprise erupted from the examination room!

"Croak, don't touch it! Don't touch it!" A cry of alarm rang out in an instant. The cry was extremely shrill and lingered for a long time, causing the students, who were still in shock, to turn their heads one by one.

A student from the next class was covered in cold sweat, clutching his genitals tightly, staring at everyone in terror.

Li Ge immediately looked at the person and asked the others around her, "What's wrong? Is this exam really that scary?"

"Didn't you experience the Great Battle of the Sixteen Kingdoms?" The classmate next to Li Ge looked at her as if she had seen a ghost.

Li Ge: "?"

What's this "Battle Royale of the Sixteen Kingdoms"? Isn't it supposed to be "The Magical Book of Jin"? Why did you fast-forward?

"Sigh, all I can say is that this exam was too shady. After unifying the world, there was still a completely magic-free battle royale. I was caught by a guy named Shi Hu and watched him rip my intestines out. Forget it, I still have psychological trauma..." He covered his mouth and then prepared to go to the toilet quickly.

Li Ge: "..."

After some investigation, he suddenly discovered that those who had joined the Sima family would have to endure a massive battle during the Sixteen Kingdoms period, a time when magic was completely banned, after the Jin Dynasty unified the country.

Li Ge then realized that his group was at the beginner level of magic suppression, which only suppressed destructive power and force, but the special effects were still present. Absolute magic suppression...

That means even the power of gathering spiritual particles is forbidden. In other words, after completely stripping away spiritual particles, how strong would a body be if it relied entirely on a state without spiritual particles? Under such circumstances, it would probably be difficult to even defeat Lu Bu.

And if one were thrown into the Sixteen Kingdoms period, and had bad luck...

When Li Ge thought of the screaming person again, it seemed he was about to experience unimaginable pain...

My condolences...

Li Ge broke out in a cold sweat instantly. If he had been an idiot and directly recognized Sima Zhao as his adoptive father and inherited the Jin Dynasty, would he and his group have had to go through the procession south of the imperial court and the subsequent massacre?

hiss……

That would be better than committing suicide and returning to heaven, and Li Ge suddenly felt a little sweaty.

At this moment, Yi Lian suddenly said, "Wow, I thought you were going to fail this time, Li Ge. I didn't expect you to still get first place with 96 points? Are all the other people doing so badly this time?"

Li Ge immediately went over to take a look.

Sure enough, I was still in first place, and even Yilian, who scored 94 points this time, managed to come in second.

Li Ge suddenly felt that this was not right. He had been taking things one step at a time and had changed his plans frequently when things went wrong, so his score this time was not as high as he had imagined.

Li Ge immediately went to check the scores of others, and sure enough, the overall scores were low this time.

Even when Li Ge found Mishael, this exchange student from the Church of Order had a score of only 89, not even making it into the top 20.

"Why such a low score?" Li Ge looked over in confusion, clicked on his profile picture, and then saw him shouting at the starving people, "The heavens are dead, order shall rise! Let us join hands and build order together!"

Thus, the Kingdom of Order ignited throughout Kyushu, spreading like wildfire. However, these starving refugees were about to face the most thorough extermination of the entire feudal system.

But upon seeing this, Li Ge fell silent.

"That Mishair from before, her score this time is only about the same as mine, a slacker." Valerie seemed a little amused.

“No, his choice was more correct than mine.” Li Ge poured cold water on the idea.

This momentarily stunned Valerie, who was still full of enthusiasm, and she immediately asked, "Why?"

“Because he saw the people at the very bottom, people that we couldn’t see… If Mishail had succeeded, he might have gotten a perfect score. It’s just a pity that he failed in the end. The Kingdom of Order was defeated by the combined forces of feudalism…” Li Ge remained silent.

He probably understood why his score wasn't as high as he'd expected this time. It was because he and his group hadn't seen those people looking up at the sky from the bottom up. They had always been thinking about grand narratives, about establishing the nation first, and then considering top-down reforms.

But this in itself may not be entirely correct.

If I never look at those at the grassroots level, I might become a terrifying, indescribable thing, like a mystical aristocrat or a gangster...

Perhaps, what schools truly want to see in this world is for us to start from the bottom, so that a single spark can start a prairie fire, and then bring about a complete and disruptive change from the bottom up, ushering in a new era for China.

Li Ge's top-down revolution only delayed the birth of the Five Clans and Seven Noble Families. Although a group was killed and positions were made, several hundred years later, in the future the system told him, new Five Clans and Seven Noble Families and powerful families would still be born.

Therefore, although Li Ge felt that he had done his best, what he actually did was just a top-down reform. The feudal era would still be dominated by powerful clans.

Thinking of this, Li Ge sighed.

Perhaps there was something wrong with my thinking. I never even considered replicating Zhang Jiao's path; I was always thinking about which side I should support...

The real reference answer should be like Mishail's.

However, for Li Ge now, the process was imperfect, but the result was correct, so she only lost some points for the process.

Mishail's solution was completely correct in the first half, but she didn't write out the second half or the answer. Despite this, she still got 89 points...

"Oh dear, why didn't I think of this path back then..." Li Ge looked at Mishael and the others. In the end, the Order of Heaven died from internal collapse, coupled with the combined strangulation by feudal forces.

He sighed.

However, Li Ge also realized her shortcomings. Perhaps in the future, her vision should not be confined to such a narrow scope, but should be able to see further.

He quickly stopped dwelling on the matter and said directly, "Let's continue with the dorm hotpot! This time, let's relax and wash away the fatigue and exhaustion of the past few dozen days."

"Yay!" Valerie laughed.

Yi Lian stopped paying attention to the others. Their scores weren't high this time, but it seemed they had gained a lot of hidden benefits as well.

Xiaoye remained silent, then asked, "Can you see the treasure that the old general gave us?"

Others: "?"

Noble Phantasm?

They calmed down instantly, focusing only on their scores, the leaderboard, and asking other students about the Sixteen Kingdoms period, forgetting to look at their own panels.

After the last monthly exam, their Noble Phantasms all evolved once. This time, although their Noble Phantasms did not evolve, a strange Noble Phantasm appeared.
