After the rankings were announced, the governor hosted another poetry recital, specifically for the Cultivated Talents of the year. The governor revealed the names of the Best Performers, and interestingly, only five of them managed to secure positions in the top ten of the institutional examination.
These top five performers received remarkable rewards. Not only did they receive a bonus from the governmental office, but they were also granted free admission to the prestigious prefectural school. Additionally, they were provided with a monthly living allowance. This meant that if they managed their expenses wisely, they wouldn't need to burden their families with the cost of studying in the abbey.
