Eroge: I can Travel To The Ancient World

Jia Hao walked with Cai Lingzhi as they reached a large hall. Jia Hao could see many young men with a scholarly appearance standing around the hall, creating a lively atmosphere.

” Well? Second Miss Cai is a mighty warrior. And Patriarch Cai is also like a tiger in his prime.” Jia Hao spoke. ” Then why do you wish to marry a mortal scholar to First Miss?”

” It wasn’t like we were also happy with this arrangement. However, if we don’t do this, it will affect our Cai Family negatively.” Cai Lingzhi spoke. ” You are new here, so it will take some time before you understand the political intrigue of the Great Yan Kingdom.”

” Our Cai Family is a military family. However, after the last war, our strength has been declining greatly. It’s just because our great uncle is guarding the Northern Borders, we are still standing tall as other powerful aristocratic families.”

” However, The family’s financial condition has been declining thanks to our enemies.” Cai Lingzhi clenched her teeth. ” They wanted to use this chance and force us to marry Elder Sister into their family.”

” Because if they get Elder Sister, they will also get a part of our military strength without any effort.”

Jia Hao understood instantly as he looked at Cai Lingzhi. ” Ah... Because there is no male in the main branch family and only you two girls?”

” Well, That’s a reason.” Cai Lingzhi nodded. ” However, If I improve my power and prove myself to the world, I can still hold the mantle of the family without much worry.”

The ancient world is always has been a male-oriented world. However, Jia Hao saw the existence of supernatural and magic in this world, the difference between male and female can be reduced significantly. After all, power is something that would never ask the gender. If you have the power, you can do whatever you wish.

” Interesting. So, you made the plan to hold a marriage candidate selection and getting a live in son in law.” Jia Hao nodded. ” But what if he had an ulterior motive?”

” That’s why we are not accepting any practitioners. Only mortal scholars are eligible to participate.”

” What are these practitioners?” Jia Hao couldn’t help but ask.

” Huh? You don’t know?” Cai Lingzhi looked at him like she was looking at an idiot. ” Even five year old child knows about them.”

” Uhh... I just wish to hear the opinion of Second Miss Cai.” Jia Hao forced a smile.

” Then let me explain to you. The Body Strengthening realm is the first realm, where you gather the internal qi from the world and refine your body.”

” You need to open the gates of your dantian before the age of 16, reaching the Profound Awakening Stage.” Cai Lingzhi explained. ” If you can’t reach the Profound Awakening Stage before the age of 16, your lifespan will be the same as a mortal and you can never advance in the future.”

” However, there are exceptions, like rare treasures of heaven and earth or some supreme techniques.”

” After reaching the Profound Awakening Stage, the color of your internal qi will change.”

” Blue colored Internal qi is heavy and good for defense. The one with blue internal qi can become soldiers, knights, or shield bearers who can be vanguards.”

” Red colored internal qi is good for attacking. The one with red internal qi is good with weapons. Swords, sabers, halberd, spear, knives, they can use this and become good fighters.”

” Violet colored internal qi is good for agility and perception. The one with violet internal qi can become an archer, ranger, assassin, and so on.

” The one who awakens the spiritual qi can become mages and shamans, utilizing the natural force and casting various magical techniques.” Cai Lingzhi spoke. ” However, their physical attributes would be much worse than internal qi users.”

” There are also cases where one person possesses two colored qi. They could be called the sons of heaven who have unparalleled strength and wisdom. Even one of them can cause the heaven and earth to tremble.”

” Nine stages of Body Strengthening, Nine stages in Profound Awakening Stage. After the Profound Awakening comes the Innate stage. After that comes the Grandmaster Realm, followed by the True Sage Realm and Void Ascension Realm.”

” It’s said that if you reach the Void Ascension Realm, you can simply break the space and go to paradise, living forever.” Cai Lingzhi chuckled. ”But that’s only a myth as no one in a few thousand years reached the Void Ascension Realm.”

” Then which stage are you in?”

” I have reached the Ninth stage of Profound Awakening Realm. After I ascend, I can become a Master rank Swordsman.”

” A Sword Master, then?”

” You can say like that.” Cai Lingzhi nodded. ” However, What about you? I can’t feel a shred of internal qi from you. You look so weak, like even a ten year old child can beat you to death.”

Jia Hao’s face darkened as Cai Lingzhi’s words stabbed into his soul like arrows.

’ Damn, I am 19 years old. Doesn’t that mean I can’t practice anymore?’ Jia Hao cursed inwardly. However, thinking about the Pot of Miracles, he calmed down a bit.

” Miss Cai is right. I have never practiced before.” Jia Hao smiled lightly as he changed the topic. ” So, How are you going to select the marriage partner of Miss Yixue?”

” Well, The event will proceed with two stages. The first one is the written exam while the second one will done by elder sister Yixue.” Cai Lingzhi looked and smiled at Jia Hao.

” See that? Those are the questions prepared by one of the head disciples of the Grand Tutor of Great Yan Kingdom.” Cai Lingzhi smiled. ” Why don’t you try to solve them?”

Jia Hao was surprised as he looked at the questions. He wondered what sort of mystical questions were prepared for the bridegroom candidates.

1: A farmer raised some hunting dogs and chickens on a farm. count 35 heads and 94 legs among the chickens and dogs on a farm. How many dogs and how many chickens does the farmer have?

2:You have a 3-liter bottle and a 5-liter bottle. How can you measure 4 liters of water by using 3L and 5L bottles?

3: I can be small or long, but always hard. But holes need to be present to use me. What am I?

Jia Hao almost spat out when he saw that question. The first answer was something that immediately came into his mind. But he knew it was obviously the wrong answer, as no one would get any mark after writing dick on their answer paper.

However, it barely took any time for Jia Hao to get the real answer. He realized the questions were truly in the mixed variety of literature, mathematics, trick questions, and others.

Strange enough, there were barely any questions about internal energy, medicinal herbs, various treasures, or something magical like that. It looks like the Cai Family is truly looking for scholars rather than practitioners.

4. Snowflakes flutter like plum blossoms. Match the couplet.

5. Assume the Great Yan Kingdom wishes to mobilize troops against the Southern Barbarians. They needed to mobilize one hundred thousand kg of wheat and rice from the Imperial Capital and transport it to the front line of Southern Borders. Overland, for every one hundred miles, hundred Kg of wheat and rice will be lost.

If the food transport army has traveled a thousand miles by water and land, and finally there will be 95,800 tons of Wheat and Rice left, please write how many miles the food transport soldiers have traveled by water and land.

When Jia Hao saw the math he couldn’t help but become amused. These questions could be easily solved by any high school kid. However, realizing it’s an ancient civilization, they might not have deep knowledge of mathematics at all.

After all, if you have superpowers, why would you need machines?
