2050. In the ruins after the nuclear war, a golden gap opened in the sky.
The imperial edict falls down, every word is like a brand -
"The way of heaven is clear, and all things are dumb dogs. From now on, the global imperial examination will be based on Chinese civilization. All flesh and blood, regardless of nationality, race, or belief, will enter the examination room. Those who fail in three examinations will be cancelled. The imperial examination starts from now on. There will be no make-up examinations. No exceptions. No mercy. All living beings, accept the order."
6.5 Billion people have exam admission ticket tattoos on their wrists at the same time. Tang poetry and Song lyrics become murder spells, and the Four Books and Five Classics become survival rules.
I, Shen Shu, a history graduate student who survives by relying on my tutor's notes, have an extra line of dark red words on my admission ticket:
"Abnormal objects·Priority processing."
