    A few dayster, Sun Siwen approached Lu Yuan and shared his concerns.


    Looking at his good friend’s face for a long time, Lu Yuan really wanted to tell him that he was too worried. With that face of yours, no one would be interested.


    Unless they were a gluttonous beast.


    Wait, a beast?


    Thinking of the reputation of the ck Wind Gang, Lu Yuan’s certainty wavered, and he hesitated before finally saying, “Brother Sun, isn’t there still four months left until the imperial examination? Let’s wait a little longer.


    Aren’t the government and Iron Sword Sect suppressing the bandits now?


    Fang Tianying has been defeated, and I think the ck Wind Gang won’t be rampant for much longer.


    Maybe in another two months, this group of bandits will be wiped out.”


    From the current situation, the prospects for the government and the Iron Sword Sect were still very good.


    As long as they could maintain their current momentum, it would only be a matter of time before they dealt with the ck Wind Gang.


    “I guess we have no other choice.”


    Sun Siwen knew that he couldn’t do anything about the current situation. Talking to his friend today was just a way for him to vent his frustration and worries.


    “Brother Sun, don’t worry too much. I know your abilities. Even if you don’t pass the imperial examination this year, we can always try again next year. We’ll prepare well this year, and next year directly rank first, bing a top schr, won’t that be great?” Lu Yuanforted.


    “Brother Lu, don’t tter me. I know my own strength. It’s possible for me to be a juren in the imperial examination, but to be the top schr is way beyond my abilities.” Sun Siwen shook his head with a bitter smile.


    Although he became slightly arrogant after bing a Schr, even daring to take the imperial examination to be a juren, this bit of arrogance was still within a reasonable range.


    Simr to when they had visited the old juren previously, thetter had told him that after more than ten years of hard study, his umtion was enough, and he could try for the juren’s imperial examination.


    Everything was just a choice based on their own strength.


    But discussing the top schr position was a bit exaggerated.


    That would be equivalent to Lu Yuan’s previous life’s college entrance examination champion, or even higher in value. Bing a juren in this world was probably simr to being a Master’s Degree student, while a jinshi was simr to a PhD student.


    Lu Yuan saying that Sun Siwen could rank first was like iming that he could surpass all the jurens in the county-level imperial examination. Even with his exaggerated confidence, he wouldn’t dare to make such a boast.


    “Not to mention ranking first, even bing a juren, if I miss this chance, it’s a problem whether I can pass the examination in the future,” Sun Siwen looked at his friend and shared one of his conjectures.


    “In fact, deep down, I have always had a feeling that I have never told anyone before…


    I suspect that this year might be the best time for me in terms of fortune, and everything I do may go very smoothly, just as I wish.


    It seems that this is indeed the case.


    After bing a Schr, I made many friends from the same period, received guidance from a juren, and my studies progressed very quickly…


    In just a few short months, it seems like my life has changedpletely.


    It feels like I’m dreaming…”


    Sun Siwen’s eyes appeared to be lost in a dream.


    “Sometimes I can’t tell if it’s a dream or not. But even if it is a dream, it’s a beautiful one.


    So, I want to take advantage of this dream, riding on this wave of fortune, and take the imperial examination in one go, and see if I can suddenly be a juren


    That way, even when the dream ends…”


    Sun Siwen turned his head and looked at Lu Yuan, revealing his thoughts, “I can at least have my wish fulfilled, and have no regrets.”


    The so-called talk of umting enough knowledge and being taught by an old juren were just excuses for deceiving others and boosting his own confidence.


    Because he had a feeling that his good fortune would notst long. If it passed this year and the fortune is gone, then bing a juren would be a lifelong unattainable dream.


    “It’s weird. I know this feeling is illusory and even conjecture, but I can’t help but believe it.


    It’s as if deep in my heart, there’s a voice constantly saying: ‘Go ahead, time is running out, you’ve got to seize it.’


    That voice is urging me to take the imperial examination, very urgently, very urgently.


    And strangely, I have a strong sense of closeness to it, as if…”


    Sun Siwen thought for a moment, then naturally said, “As if the voice’s owner is connected by blood, like a rtive of mine.


    Do you know that feeling?


    He wanted to describe it, but when he looked back, he found that his friend was looking at him with a very strange expression.


    Sun Siwen felt a chill, and the emotions he had been simmering vanished in an instant. He tugged at the corner of his mouth and swallowed, “Brother Lu, Brother Lu, are you listening to me?”


    It seemed like he was awakened by his own call, and his friend finally came to his senses.


    “Yes, I am.”


    Lu Yuan responded with a nod, suppressing the strange feeling and some excitement in his heart, and said, “Brother Sun’s…uh, premonition sounds truly extraordinary.


    But whether it’s a conjecture or a premonition, it’s not a bad thing from what we see now, right?


    So Brother Sun, just follow the guidance of the voice in your heart and take the imperial examination.


    Perhaps, it’s just as you said.


    This year may be the year of your fortune and you might just achieve greatness in one fell swoop!”


    Lu Yuan smiled, but his heart was filled with relentless waves.


    As a traverser, and one who had traversed to the world of martial arts, he had a high degree of understanding and eptance of various mysteries.


    In addition, he had read countless novels in his previous life, so when Sun Siwen described his fortune and dream, Lu Yuan readily epted it.


    ‘So, Brother Sun really is blessed with good fortune, and the source of this blessing may be his so-called dream and the voice in the dream?


    He analyzed in his heart.


    He had suspected before if there would be immortals in this world since there were martial arts practitioners.


    However, after studying and trying for so long, Lu Yuan had never discovered any higher energy like spiritual energy, nor had he ever really met an


    them.


    But Sun Siwen’s words today undoubtedly gave him a piece of explosive information.


    Fortune!


    “Thinking about it carefully, Brother Sun’s luck has indeed improved a lot since this year, even defying the heavens.


    Picking up money when going out, making good friends abroad, meeting the old juren while studying…


    Even during such turbulent times, he managed to safely return from Fu City to the countryside without encountering any bandits?


    All of these events may not seem incredible individually, but gathered upon a single person, especially someone who was previously down on his luck and unremarkable, it appears too extraordinary.”


    After analyzing it in his heart, Lu Yuan stared at Sun Siwen, looking intently at his friend.


    There was definitely something going on with him.


    Something must have happened, that’s why his luck improved so much..
