In other words, she guessed on all the multiple-choice questions on both the advanced and intermediate exams.

However, Huang Cao comforted her, saying, "These questions are all closely related to the actual situation in Utopia. It's normal that you can't answer them because you don't understand them."

To be fair...

Little Trump's governing ability is quite good, but she has not received the hellish training for official examinations that Utopia provides.

Moreover, this exam paper doesn't just cover humanities subjects; it also includes a significant proportion of science subjects like mathematics.

Given the many factors involved, it's not surprising that someone might fail the exam for intermediate-level officials.

Even if you pass the exam, you're only considered to have one foot in the bureaucracy within the Utopia administrative system.

Because officials also have a probationary period, doing well on the exam does not mean they can do well in practice.

The ratio of practical skills to exam scores was roughly 4:6; only those who passed both were qualified to enter officialdom.

Even with that, you still need to score high, because there are even more incredible competitors waiting for you ahead of you.

There are only a few positions available, so Huang Cao will definitely prioritize those with higher scores.

There are also regulations regarding the length of service. Thanks to the Golden Tree, every Sarkaz has almost completely escaped the troubles of Originium.

Therefore, they can live for a very long time, but their time in power will not exceed sixty years.

Furthermore, they must undergo an assessment every twenty years. If they fail the assessment and are outperformed by newer young people, their positions may be taken by newcomers with higher scores.

Of course, there is still a chance to come back.

Because the person being replaced will not have any change in salary; their job will simply be to train the new person who will take their place.

Furthermore, the performance evaluation scores of new recruits are also an important factor for these officials to regain their original positions, as they are a bonus point in their re-evaluation of their positions.

If you surpass the newcomer again, you can return to your original position. The newcomer will then become your assistant to help you with your work, and you will be subject to a different set of evaluation mechanisms for assistants.

Even so.

In the populous utopia, the number of people who choose to enter the officialdom is relatively small compared to other industries, but the number is still considerable.

Therefore, those who are determined to take this path are nothing more than ruthless individuals and masters of manipulation.

Chapter 282 Teresis, who ultimately could not escape the fate of being reduced to ashes.

These are all hard standards.

Therefore, even if it dampens the patriots' enthusiasm for serving their country, these people will not feel any resentment, because their opponents in the exam are actually more patriotic and work harder than they are.

In the Utopian administration, "practice makes perfect" is by no means a sarcastic remark.

Therefore, if all of Utopia's senior officials were sent abroad to other countries as leaders...

Given enough time to conduct on-site investigations, the strength of this group of people is sufficient to make them pillars of a large country.

Theresia's defeat at the hands of this group of scroll kings is not something to be ashamed of.

"Here's some good news: Nizere, Dukare, and even Lamian all took the Utopia exam, but only Lamian passed the intermediate-level official exam. The other two scored lower than you."

Dukare and Nizere: Yes, we are not as lucky as Your Highness. We didn't even pass the exam for entry-level officials.

After making the comparison, Theresia's mood finally improved somewhat.

So she continued to immerse herself in the prosperity of Utopia, never expecting that the country ruled by her man would be so prosperous.

And most importantly, it truly achieved a great cultural integration.

People from all nationalities can live together harmoniously in Utopia, and there will be no discrimination.

Isn't this the wonderful world I've been creating all along?

It's just that her husband's way of doing things is completely different from hers.

Huang Cao's approach was to first clear the land and then implement the system.

Theresia's ideal approach was to naturally integrate different ethnic groups through institutional mechanisms.

However, the latter will inevitably offend certain vested interests, and the resistance will be extremely strong.

Therefore, Ah Cao chose to eliminate all the vested interests.

Class contradiction?

Once the opposing class is physically eliminated, there will be no class conflict in the short term.

Otherwise, why would people say that physics is the origin of this world?

That evening, when Theresia returned to the lord's residence in Utopia, she saw the large bed where she had once lain.

My first time was lost on top...

Although I was tricked by my best friend, at least for now, the outcome isn't too bad.

It brought them joy and also helped them find a life partner.

So the price is that I become your plaything, is that right?

Huang Cao curled her lip as she watched Theresia smirking behind her back.

Who was that pink-clad girl who was crying yesterday?

Theresia, who was suddenly tapped, was still not satisfied, but the kitten next to her had something to say.

Actually, Theresia already knew yesterday that her cat and Master Huang were wearing the same pair of pants.

After all, how could she, as a maid, be eavesdropping like the other two?

So the answer is obvious: Kal'tsit is definitely not a proper maid!

Huang Cao also told the newly joined Theresia about her family's circumstances.

"Your Highness, actually you lost your virginity even earlier than I did."

When His Highness was betrayed by her best friend, Kal'tsit watched from outside the room and silently cried out in her heart that there was nothing she could do.

Unfortunately, the username and password were correct, but the server malfunctioned.

It wasn't until recently that her official status in Master Huang's household was truly established.

"Your Highness, I have a plan for tomorrow. This has nothing to do with Master Huang; it is my own decision."

Kal'tsit told His Highness that she was about to be cremated, and the latter said incredulously:

"I originally thought it was just acting, but I didn't expect it to be for real. Kal'tsit, do we have a more reasonable way to resolve this?"

Kal'tsit shook her head. "This time I don't want to run away. Only in this way can the people of Kazdel truly accept Utopia, and also save Your Highness's reputation among the people."

Theresia's reputation has become somewhat shaky because of Kal'tsit, and Kazdel is ultimately her country.

If everything is really left to Master Huang, Theresia will only ever be a pretty face and will never make any progress.

This is not the future Your Highness desires.

"Don't worry, it won't hurt."

"How do you know it won't hurt..."

"The Shapeshifter tested the temperature of the flame for me. It only takes an instant to turn to ash, and you won't feel any pain at all."

"That's fine then, let's proceed according to your plan."

Kal'tsit was pleased that her princess was able to grasp the situation, and then made further requests.

"I need you and Master Huang to turn on the incinerator switch together. Only in this way can we salvage your reputation, which has been ruined because of me. At the same time, we can also take this opportunity to emphasize Master Huang's rule over Kazdel, as you have seen these past few days."

Having spent a whole day exploring Utopia, Theresia knew very well that the Huang Cao system showed absolutely no mercy to anyone.

Before the two had a frank conversation, Xiao Te had already learned a lot about excellent administrative systems from Master Huang, but he did not put them into practice.

The conflict between local nobles and the central government is something that almost no country, except for utopias, can completely resolve.

Kazdel, despite being Demon King lord-led society, still faces the challenge of dealing with powerful figures like Yama, who is easy to deal with but troublesome underlings.

While it can make subordinates obedient, it's not a complete obedience.

The Kazdel government is not very efficient, and it is also prone to natural Catastrophe. Often, after a Catastrophe, Trump will temporarily lose control of the affected area.

Also, due to Catastrophe disasters, even if Dukare were the country's finance minister, he could not catch every corrupt official within the framework of the feudal system.

Because Catastrophe are like the Great Sage of Balancing Accounts; after a disaster, nothing remains.

Who knows what you were doing before?

Therefore, after taking over Kazdel, Master Huang will definitely want to fully implement his system, which requires him to have a very high reputation among the people.

All I can say is that Terra is a very strange place.

Despite being the highest feudal monarchs of the country, neither Big T Small T possessed the vices typical of emperors.

In order to make Kazdel prosper, he was even willing to relinquish all his power and wealth.

He is practically a reincarnation of a wise king, and his reforms would never infringe upon the interests of those at the top of the ruling class.

Generally speaking, reforms under a feudal system would affect two parties: the emperor and the powerful families below him.

But now that the Demon King is on my side, willing to give up his own interests, the remaining powerful clans are left to be slaughtered.

"So Your Highness, you don't need to take responsibility for yourself. All of this is for a better world. I am willing to give my life. However, during my absence, I need you to take good care of Master Huang."

"I am willing to give you my share of time, please do not pity Master Huang's health."

The day of execution arrived as scheduled, and Kal'tsit was tied to the stake.

Furthermore, in order to make the show more entertaining, Kal'tsit abandoned her usual calm and collected image, swearing profusely on the pyre and drawing a final wave of hatred before her death.

Finally, at the height of nationalistic sentiment, Theresia and Huang Cao pressed the incineration switch together.

The towering pillar of fire instantly reduced Kal'tsit to ashes. The cat didn't even have time to react, and before it died, it was still cursing the people below in Sarkaz slang.

"Well done!"

Teresis was also released at this time and watched this scene from a high-rise building.

Although he already knew about Kal'tsit's relationship with someone, it didn't stop him from cheering loudly.

It doesn't matter, my sister will help me get revenge in that area!

If we have kids in the future, won't that guy still be under my control?

I'm your brother-in-law! How dare you send me to do such a dirty job!

After burning her cat, Theresia convened a new Royal Court meeting to discuss how to get Utopia to take over Kazdel as quickly as possible.

Given that the Shapeshifter Collective no longer wanted to be Kazdel's nuclear-powered oxen and horses, she planned to hand over the construction work to her most trusted brother.

"Brother, the construction of Kazdel needs you!"

As it turns out, Master Huang did not directly send Teresis to fight the ash, but the latter's sister would.

Even if it were Master Huang who gave the order, Teresis might still have room to resist, but Theresia had absolutely no chance.

"I understand, Theresia."

Teresis had no choice but to reluctantly accept the assignment.

I've ultimately misplaced my trust...

Chapter 283 In the Utopian bureaucracy, there are no seats for the weak!

Before the Royal Court meeting, Teresis himself took a stroll around Utopia City.

So I can say that I witnessed the prosperity of Utopia.

Although I'm not entirely satisfied with someone's character, I can only make do for now.

My younger sister is already hanging on Huang Cao, so I have to think about her future no matter what.

As a result, over the next few decades, our Teacher T became deeply involved in all aspects of Kazdel's development.

Furthermore, thanks to their superior physical abilities, their contributions to the entire country have even surpassed those of the original Shapeshifter Collective.

Of course, that's all in the future.

After receiving her sister's appointment, Teresis no longer wanted to attend the upcoming Royal Court meetings.
