The questions and answers compiled in the list above have been found from database websites, players of the game, and readers sharing questions and answers with us in the comment section below.
Rise of Kingdoms continually adds new questions to the Peerless Scholar quiz, so a new question might not have been added to the list yet at the time that you are looking for its answer.
What is the Lyceum of Wisdom
Once you unlock City Hall level 10, you gain access to the Lyceum of Wisdom building.
In this building, players can participate in the “Peerless Scholar,” a quiz minigame event.
This event is an important information hub where people can meet, socialize, put their knowledge of the game and general world history to the test, and advance together.
If you pass, you will receive useful rewards, and if you make it to the end, you will receive even more useful rewards.
How to participate in the Peerless Scholar quiz and rewards
As soon as you get to City Hall level 10, you can build the Lyceum of Wisdom building and participate in the Peerless Scholar quiz through it.
The Peerless Scholar has three stages:
You have to participate and answer enough questions correctly in the preliminaries before you can move on to the midterm.
Lastly, complete at least one midterm during the month to qualify for the final exam.
Preliminary exam
A single Preliminary exam consists of 10 questions.
Every day, players can take part in one preliminary event.
No limitations exist at this point, and the participants are free to ask for Alliance help, Google, and take their time to answer the questions.
You can seek help from Alliance members with up to 3 questions.
Every wrong answer you give will reduce your total rewards and current question rewards, but you can continue with the quiz.
Rewards from the preliminary exam include:
- Speedups
- Resources
- Qulification for the midterm exam (at least 6 questions answered correctly required)
- Midterm Life Token (at least 9 questions answered correctly required)
Midterm exam
A single midterm exam consists of 15 questions, all of which players must answer within a limited time frame in a live session.
The questions are divided into three parts:
- Question 1-5: 15 secs timer
- Question 6-10: 12 secs timer
- Question 11-15: 10 secs timer
Every week, players have a chance to participate in one of two midterm sessions.
Players can choose to take the quiz at either 2:30 or 12:30. Registration is required at least 5 minutes before a session starts.
One incorrect answer, and you won’t be allowed to continue with the exam unless you’ve earned Midlife Tokens during the preliminaries.
The midterm Life Token is consumed automatically, and the question is assumed to be correctly answered. You can then proceed to the next question.
Once all the tokens have been consumed and you answer a question incorrectly, you will be disqualified.
You could fail three questions but still pass and proceed to finals if you had at least 3 midterm Life Tokens.
Requirements to participate in the midterm exams
- Answer at least six questions correctly in a single preliminary event.

A single Final exam consists of 20 questions, all of which players must answer within a limited frame.
The questions are divided into three parts:

- Question 6-10: 12 secs timer
- Question 11-20: 10 secs timer
Finals take place once every month.
Governors who have passed at least one midterm exam during the month can take the final on every last Saturday of the month at 14:30 UTC.
If a player doesn’t register 5 minutes before the finals start, they cannot participate.
A single incorrect answer ends the final exam unless the player has a Life Token.
When all Life Tokens have been consumed and you answer a question incorrectly, you are disqualified.
Life Tokens are a reward given for the successful completion of a midterm exam.
