This is a world where scholars wield the power of heaven and earth. With talent, one can kill enemies with poetry, annihilate armies with lyrics, and bring peace to the world with prose. A scholar can strategize on paper; a successful candidate in the provincial examination can compose poems and write essays; and a candidate in the imperial examination can engage in heated debates. When a sage arrives, he can condemn people with words and writings, punish individuals, and judge the emperor as tyrannical, making one a match for an entire nation. At this time, the Holy Academy held the civil service positions, the monarch controlled the official positions, ten kingdoms were vying for power, barbarian tribes were eyeing the country covetously, and demons were causing chaos. At this time, there was no flourishing of Tang poetry, no golden age of Song lyrics, no innovative writing, and no new sages for a hundred years. An unknown, poor boy, after having his head smashed, embarked on the path to sainthood, carrying with him timeless poems and astonishing writings.
