After eating his first meal after enrolling, the college life that Lu Changfeng was looking forward to began. After all, the academy was established to cultivate talents for the Starfall Empire, so it was very strict with its disciples. The instructor will teach the disciples martial arts skills and supervise the disciples' practice.

According to Zhang Chao, the college will conduct a knockout competition one year after the start of the semester. The disciples from the outer courtyard who performed well entered the inner courtyard, while the disciples from the inner courtyard who performed poorly went to the outer courtyard. In addition, the 10% of disciples ranked at the bottom will be eliminated from the academy. However, those who are eliminated can re-enter the college through the admissions examination as long as they meet the admissions requirements. During this process, some students may feel that their skills are inferior to others and that there is no hope of success, so they voluntarily withdraw from the academy.

Zhang Chao informed that the cultivation resources of the outer courtyard and the inner courtyard were very different. There are some elixirs that outer courtyard disciples are not eligible to obtain. And this thing is in the inner courtyard, and the inner courtyard disciples can eat it directly without any problem. Only now did Lu Changfeng realize that although he had been admitted, he was only a disciple of the outer academy and had a long road ahead.

Due to his inherent deficiencies, Lu Changfeng could only hope that hard work could make up for his shortcomings. Although most of the martial arts and martial arts taught by Zhang Chao were useless to Lu Changfeng. But some of the cultivation experiences he explained helped Lu Changfeng a lot. After all, the experience of a master in the Wuzong realm is of great help to people like Lu Changfeng.

The life in the college is not rich, even a little boring. Here, many people practice day and night in order to improve their strength, for fear of falling behind others and being eliminated in the annual assessment. Lu Changfeng also had a sense of urgency. Although he had never thought about staying in the academy for a long time, let alone working for the Starfall Empire, he did not want to be eliminated before he got the Red Fire Pill. Therefore, Lu Changfeng did not dare to waste his time and rarely went out. Whenever he had time, he would seek advice from Zhang Chao.

But Zhou Hua is a born optimist. With this guy around, there will be endless fun. This happy mood also influenced Lu Changfeng invisibly, freeing him from the Yunyinmen incident. Now, Lu Changfeng's original intention has not changed, but he is no longer depressed. Instead, he can treat life and the world optimistically, and sometimes he can even drink and curse with Zhou Hua and the others.

Long Hu is also a diligent child. Like Lu Changfeng, he practices in the courtyard every day. Effort is contagious. Zhou Hua had no intention of practicing at first, but after being pulled by Lu Changfeng and Long Hu to practice a few times, he became more conscious and worked hard with them. Only Liao Mu, after practicing together several times, this guy seemed to deliberately avoid the three of them. He would leave early and come back late every day. Sometimes he even didn't come back to spend the night. He didn't know what he was doing.

Lu Changfeng still gets along well with Zhou Hua and Long Hu. Zhou Hua was careless, chirping about how hard it was to practice every day, but he was warm-hearted. When it was time to eat, if Lu Changfeng and the others were still practicing, he would help bring two meals. Longhu is serious about words, but he is a good guy who doesn't stick to trivial matters, and he does what he says. The three of them practiced together, ate together, and talked about dirty jokes. It was relatively easy to pass the time.

"Get up, get up!"

Early in the morning, Zhou Hua called out, and Lu Changfeng reluctantly got up, washed up, and dressed up to go out. Zhou Hua and the other three were already waiting. When they saw Lu Changfeng, Longhu said, "Let's go, time is running out!"

Lu Changfeng nodded, and the four of them walked out of the door and walked towards the school grounds. Zhou Hua came over humbly and asked, "It's your first monthly test, are you nervous?"

Lu Changfeng kicked him away and said, "Don't say it's so wretched. You just have your period. Can this be called a monthly exam?"

In addition to the annual major exam, Huimin College also has a monthly exam every month. The main purpose is to let disciples in the same class understand each other and know clearly what level they are. This enhances the sense of crisis and gives disciples more motivation to practice. There are also rewards for the monthly exams, and they are treated equally regardless of whether they are in the inner or outer academy. As for the content of the exam, according to Zhang Chao, there are several types, which were randomly selected by Jiang Yonglin, the person in charge of this session.

Thinking of Jiang Yonglin, Lu Changfeng couldn't help but gnashed his teeth with hatred. This guy was a complete loser, relying on his old age to live up to his old age. Lu Changfeng almost failed the exam that day, all because of him. But no matter what, this man is still very powerful in the academy. Even though there are many people who hate him, there is nothing they can do about him. Instead, he becomes the person in charge of this year's disciples. This guy is the one who drew the lot for everyone. It's a battle mechanism person.

So why are we fighting against agency personnel instead of people beating people? The main reason is to consider safety issues. It is said that swords have no eyes, but casualties cannot be avoided in any competition. As a warrior, you should have the awareness to be brave and not afraid of death, and face it head on. Since ancient times, heroes have suffered many hardships. If you are afraid of death, don't learn martial arts, right?

But Huimin Academy is not an ordinary martial arts sect. The sect trains some warriors, who can be used for their own use. Huimin College only cultivates talents for the empire. After these disciples complete their studies, the government picks away the outstanding ones, leaving the college with a bunch of crooked melons and broken dates. I make wedding dresses for people every year, but in the end I get nothing and cause a lot of trouble out of thin air. After the college suffered several losses, it no longer took advantage of it.

For example, the college held an exam and the disciples competed against each other. As a result, Zhang San accidentally stabbed Li Si. And Li Si's parents called seven aunts and eight aunts to come to the college to block the door and make a fuss. Maybe the college would be involved in a lawsuit. Who is ultimately footing the bill? The official will definitely not care about it. They will blame it all on the college. The dean of the college kicks the ball down and transfers the responsibility to the tutor. The tutor is so poor and short-minded that he can only break his teeth and swallow it in his belly with tears. , lose money when it’s time to pay, pay life when it’s time to pay, and those who can’t afford to pay can only die... The obvious risks are not proportional to the benefits.

If this happened in a sect, it would be easy to deal with. After all, most sects are local emperors. They have the power of life and death over their disciples. They are not afraid of family members making trouble. If they really encounter difficulties, they can settle them by giving them benefits. . It's a good deal to sacrifice some benefits in exchange for outstanding disciples in the sect to work hard for the sect's growth and prosperity for the rest of their lives. What's more, many disciples have no father or mother, and they will die if they die.

The college is like an inn. Guests leave after their stay. The inn needs to serve the guests and ensure their safety, so there is really no need for the college to cause trouble for itself. After suffering a lot, the mentors learned from experience that except for the annual exam, never arrange for disciples to compete for nothing. Anyone who does this will definitely get kicked in the head by a donkey. So for monthly quizzes, we just do some weight-bearing running, practice theory tests, weightlifting, etc... Fighting against agency personnel is already the riskiest among these projects.

Then why do some people still suppress this project in the annual exam? The main reason is that during the annual exam, there are invigilators sent by the government and even the royal family. Huimin College is a talent training and selection institution run by the state with real money, and it must cultivate disciples with real abilities. At this time, running and other activities will definitely not fool him. After all, the dean and tutors also eat the royal food and seek their own political affairs in their positions. For those who eat royal food, it's okay to fish on weekdays, but if you continue to fish after the end of the year when the boss comes, you're not making yourself a treasure.

When Lu Changfeng and the others arrived at the school grounds, there was no one there yet. They found a seat near the arena and waited for the exam to begin. Looking at the empty school grounds, Zhou Hua yawned and said, "Damn, I came early and didn't even eat breakfast. It seems that we are the only good disciples who fall in love with Jin."

Longhu looked at Kyuubiao on the sidelines and said with a sullen face: "Okay, stop bragging, you damned got the time wrong. We're half an hour early, okay."

"Really?" Zhou Hua looked embarrassed and approached Kyuubiao and said, "Let me see... uh, hahaha, this... I have been practicing too hard these past few days and I can't help but feel a little dizzy. I'm sorry. Oops, I feel weak all over. , almost fainted, must be hungry..."

Lu Changfeng said: "Let's go have breakfast!"

Zhou Hua said sternly: "No, I still have to recognize my position here to avoid being occupied by others. If you ask me, it's better for you to go, Brother Feng. Run fast and bring it back to us. You have to choose how big the meat buns are. Yes, you need more sugar in the porridge, go ahead!"

Lu Changfeng asked: "No, what's so strange about your position? Isn't it just a little closer to the front? Why do you want to recognize it?"

"You don't know this, are you an outsider? Let me tell you, when you are in a ring, you must stand close to the front, so that you can feast your eyes on the beautiful women in skirts... Hehe..." Zhou Hua said in a hazy voice.

Lu Changfeng: "..."
