Bab 182: The Academy Gate Repaired

By taking first rank of the first banner in the Grand Examination, Chen Changsheng had caused the Divine General of the East's estate to prepare a family feast, yet it had caused the feasts in many homes to disappear, or at the very least become much less impressive, as many people had lost a great deal of money.

According to the statistics collected in the aftermath, the Four Great Markets had opened three-hundred-some betting pools concerning the Grand Examination. The hundred-some betting pools with the greatest value were essentially betting on the rankings for the Grand Examination. Chen Changsheng's appearance, Tianhai Shengxue's withdrawal, and other unexpected incidents, one surprise occurring after the other, made it so that very few people won anything from this year's betting pools.
