"Yan Xue? What is that?" Zhan Yue asked curiously.
The old man with gray hair and ragged clothes instantly became energetic when he saw that Zhan Yue was willing to listen to him.
"The study of Dayan is about understanding the changes in the universe, distinguishing the differences between the old and the past, observing the foundation of the universe, and knowing the truth of a moment. It is an all-encompassing and all-encompassing great science." The old man said, with a full expression on his face. It's enthusiasm.
"Speak in human terms." Zhan Yue frowned. These mysterious and mysterious things sounded high-end, but in fact they contained no useful information at all.
The old man was speechless for a moment and said timidly: "I study the principles of all things, such as why things fall when they are thrown up, and why water turns into smoke when it is boiled."
"Studying physics?" Zhan Yue was a little surprised, but it was not too unexpected. After all, there are many people in this world, and everyone is not a fool. It is natural that some babies with quick minds and full of curiosity will be born. If not It's weird for people to study these things. But in this world where those who make pacts rule and everything must be broken with force, how much role does physics play?
"Don't underestimate me, do you know why Night Dire is afraid of the sun?" the old man said mysteriously.
"Why?" Zhan Yue became interested.
"This is the problem I am studying now." The old man smiled.
"Did you find anything through your research?" Zhan Yue asked again.
The old man blushed, "No, no, halfway through the research, the funds are not enough. But give me another half year, no, three months, three months at most, and I hope to get the answer."
Zhan Yue lamented, this old guy really knows how to make excuses to cheat money. If he really had the ability to study this issue clearly, no one in this world would be able to support him.
"Brother, I see you have a good face and I want to remind you, don't be deceived by this old guy's rhetoric. Last month he said he was studying how to miniaturize the Tongming Tower, but he didn't come up with any nonsense. Now he's saying that he We have to study Night Dire." A kind person stood up and reminded Zhan Yue who was standing aside.
When the old man heard this, he wanted to defend himself, but he couldn't. After all, he really didn't understand anything.
"Well, I see that your life is not good, so I will use this money to support you." Zhan Yue threw a bag of amethyst coins to the old man. Although the money was not much, it was enough for the old man to maintain his basic life. The public security in the school city is very good, and there are so many rich and powerful people, but no one cares about the old man's money.
"Hey." The people around shook their heads and dispersed. They won't say much. It's other people's business if they have money and are willing to give charity.
The old man took the money and thanked him profusely. "I'll do my research."
Zhan Yue smiled nonchalantly and didn't say much. This was just a small episode in ordinary life.
"Sister, is this old man hiding his cultivation?" Zhan Yue asked.
"No, he is just an ordinary person. But... I seem to detect the smell of a curse on him." The goddess of transparency sounded a little confused, who would cast a curse on an ordinary person.
"Curse?" Zhan Yue jumped when he heard the words. Curses are not easy to cast. For example, the curse on the Tongming Goddess was that the mysterious man burned his own soul and cast it down. He would definitely kill eight hundred enemies and lose one thousand, so Wouldn't it be better to just kill an ordinary person? Why put a curse on him?
No longer thinking about this problem, Zhan Yue continued walking towards the gate of the college.
"Master, please show me your ID." The guard said. To enter the college, you must either be a student of the college or have a temporary student ID card, but Zhan Yue did not have either of these two things.
"Is this okay?" Zhan Yue took out the token given by Mi Hongchen.
Seeing the token, the guard's expression changed and he immediately said respectfully: "Master, please wait here for a moment." The guard took out a fist-sized bird and tied the letter he just wrote to the bird's leg. The little bird flew away through the air at an extremely terrifying speed. This was the most common method of communication in the academy - the spirit bird message.
After a while, a middle-aged woman in blue clothes rushed over, looked at Zhan Yue, and asked the guard at the side: "He is the person you are talking about." The middle-aged woman looked Zhan Yue up and down. Apart from being handsome, I didn't find anything special about Zhan Yue.
"Yes, it's him. The token has been verified and is indeed a letter of recommendation from Her Royal Highness the Princess. According to regulations, the princess is qualified to directly recommend students for admission without examination," the guard said.
The woman nodded and said to Zhan Yue: "Come with me, let's go in and chat."
"Okay." Zhan Yue followed the woman in. This woman's strength was at the third level of Rixuan, and her status was definitely not low.
"Is it Director Wu who is in charge of freshmen admission management? She came to welcome that guy in person? Who is that guy?" Everyone watched the woman take the man away and started talking. They had to go through a lot of procedures to enter the academy, but how could Zhan Yue be invited in personally by Director Wu like Zhan Yue.
"What's your name?" asked the middle-aged woman. Although she was not beautiful, her appearance was very kind.
"Senior, my name is Zhan Yue." Zhan Yue replied.
"There is no need to call me senior in the academy. You can call me Teacher Wu or Director Wu," the woman said.
Zhan Yue nodded. From Dandu to Xuedu, Zhan Yue felt that he had gone from the world of Eastern immortals to the world of Western fantasy. However, he had indeed stayed in the world of spirits, but the customs in different countries were indeed different.
"Although it is said that you are recommended by Her Highness the Princess and can enter the school without taking the exam, you still need to be assessed for class placement. After all, we cannot encourage others and force you to be placed in a class full of geniuses. It may not be a good thing for you. By the way, how old are you this year?" Director Wu asked again.
"Twenty-seven." Zhan Yue did the math and answered truthfully.
"Twenty-seven, seventh-level psychic, pretty good talent." Director Wu nodded. Although he was not as good as those geniuses who entered the occult at a young age, he was still above average. However, she was still curious about what Her Highness the Princess valued about him.
"Director Wu, can you tell me about the studies and assessments in the college?" Zhan Yue asked.
Director Wu was very patient. After all, Zhan Yue was recommended by the princess. "All courses in the college are not restricted and can be studied freely. However, different levels of assessment will be provided for students of different levels. Students who have not entered the Xuan Dynasty can choose to graduate after becoming a Xuan practitioner. Of course, if they want to continue to stay as a Xuan practitioner To study in the academy, you need to pass another assessment. It is equivalent to the entrance examination. If you reach the Yuexuan or even the Sunxuan realm in the academy, you can apply for dispatch to take over as a city lord. You must know that many city lords today are from the academy. Those who come out are far more powerful than those in the same situation, which is why the academy is so popular. The resources provided by the academy are not comparable to those outside."
Zhan Yue nodded and asked: "Director, is there ever a situation where you take the entrance examination and participate in courses and training at the level of a mystic before entering the mystical realm?"
Director Wu heard this and looked at Zhan Yue in surprise, with a hint of amusement in his eyes. "Of course it's possible, but the test is not easy."
"What is the assessment like?" Zhan Yue asked again.
Director Wu smiled and said: "The Mysterious Scholar assessment is divided into two parts. First, climbing to the tenth floor of Wuya Tower; second, the academy points must be 10,000 points."
Zhan Yue frowned. The Wuya Tower should be a place similar to a practical test. It was nothing to him, but what were the academy points? Ten thousand points doesn't seem to be that easy to come by.
"Director, generally speaking, how do you get college points the fastest?" Zhan Yue asked again.
"Are you really anxious? Do you want to enter the stage of learning as a metaphysician as soon as you enter school? You must know that even if you have not entered the metaphysics, there are still many things worth learning in the academy." Director Wu kindly reminded that it is not a good thing to aim too high. .
"Thank you, director, I just want to give it a try." Zhan Yue does not plan to stay in the academy for long. With his strength and combat capabilities, he can fully accept the training and assessment of the mystical practitioner and treat him as a mystical practitioner.
"Hey, okay. There are generally two ways to obtain college points. One is to complete the course and pass the course assessment to obtain the corresponding points. This path is the most stable, but also the slowest; the second is to complete the points issued by the college. Tasks, get the corresponding task points. If we say the fastest, the tasks that turn in task props are the fastest to get points." Director Wu said.
Zhan Yue's eyes lit up, "Director, are there any tasks that require elixirs?"
"Of course, that kind of task is the most common. After all, elixirs are always scarce for the academy. Do you still know how to make elixirs?" Director Wu said in surprise.
"Exactly." Zhan Yue nodded happily.
Director Wu couldn't help but glance at Zhan Yue, and reminded him, "I still say it, it's not a good thing to aim too high. Even if you reach the corresponding points, you still need to take the Wuya Tower assessment. If you fail the assessment, one will be deducted. Ten thousand points. Need to accumulate points again.”
"There is such a rule?" Zhan Yue said in surprise.
"That's natural. First of all, I'm afraid that too many students will overestimate their abilities and apply for skip-level assessments every day. Secondly, opening the Wuya Tower also requires a lot of resources, and naturally there will be some price to pay." Director Wu explained.
"I see. Thank you very much, Director Wu. Please take me to the place where I can redeem my credits." Zhan Yue requested.
Director Wu frowned. This little guy was so impatient and didn't take the college assessment seriously. That's all. She had said all she needed to say. Even if he failed the assessment and was hit, it was not her responsibility.
"Let's go, I'll take you there." Director Wu said angrily. She had never seen a student who was not yet a metaphysician prepare to take the mysticist assessment without even applying for a dormitory on the first day at the academy. But this person was recommended by the princess, and she couldn't reprimand him. "Let's see what level this kid is at. The test at Wuya Tower is not that simple."
