On the morning of the sixth day of the scientific examination, the last segment of the Six Arts of the Gentleman was riding and archery.
For five consecutive days, they had been curled up in the narrow examination hall. The examinees were listless and couldn't muster any energy.
Those who came from better families and ate well could still hold on. A portion of the examinees were not in good health, did not eat well, and did not sleep well. They were very weak.
Scholar Lu was in the middle. His physique was very ordinary, and he could not withstand it even if he ate well.
When he arrived at the horse range, he felt as though he was floating. When he thought of the upcoming riding and shooting exam, he felt even more sorrowful.
The Six Arts of the Gentleman accounted for 30% of the Imperial Examination. Among them, riding and archery only accounted for a fifth of the points out of 30%.
Even so, the examinees didn't dare to slack off.
