This was not the first time Top Scholar had done this. Those who came to the prefecture city to study were mostly new county scholars.
In those countryside places, the county scholar could be considered a powerful figure and was respected.
But in the prefecture capital, it was nothing.
In the prefecture capital, county scholars were also divided into different ranks. Most people had limited family assets.
Family without money could barely provide for a single student.
If an ordinary person wanted to become a county scholar, it would take at least seven to eight years. If they wanted to take another step forward, they had to continue studying.
Top Scholar had investigated the backgrounds of every student. If there was an official in the family, they definitely could not be touched. Since they were all officials, they naturally had to protect each other.
If it was an ordinary family, they had to pay heftily to live here.
