Although Lu Ping and the four of them encountered a lot of things along the way, and they were invited by Ba Liyan, the dean of Xiafeng, and the city lord's palace, in fact, these things did not waste much time. It's just that the originally hired carriage didn't arrive, so I ended up walking all the way back to Zhaifeng Academy, which was a lot of time spent.
Lu Ping was walking like flying, Su Tang was pushing Xi Fan, and he was also walking like flying. In the end, Mo Lin was left at the end, sighing and complaining all the way. He was a little tired, but he still didn't fall behind.
Zhaifeng Academy is located at the foot of Xiafeng Mountain. The entire Xiafeng City is built on the mountain. I abandoned the carriage halfway and walked on foot. It was almost half of Xiafeng City and took about four hours to walk. When we returned to the college, the entire college was already under the afterglow of the setting sun.
The Fengfeng Academy was only established more than 20 years ago and has little background. The dean, Guo Youdao, does not seem to have much financial resources. The only thing he can talk about is his background in Xuanwu Academy.
Perhaps relying on this background, Guo Youdao got a sum of money from somewhere and finally built the Fengfeng Academy. At the beginning, the slogan of catching up with and surpassing the Big Four really confused many people. After all, Xiafeng District is remote, and people's knowledge is inevitably a little behind. They don't have much understanding and concept of the four major colleges. When Guo Youdao said this, many people really believed it.
Now that more than 20 years have passed, Guo Youdao himself has not mentioned such things as catching up with the Big Four. The knowledge of everyone in Xiafeng Mountain has also improved rapidly in the past 20 years. Mentioning this is regarded as a joke. In Xiafeng District, everyone still recognizes Xiafeng Academy. If I have children at home, I will try to send them to the academy when they reach the appropriate age. If they are found to have the potential to practice through the test, the future of the family will be guaranteed. Even if those who come out of the academy are mediocre, as long as they have the power of soul at the second or third heaven level, they will be much more advantageous than ordinary people in many things. A person with the second level of heavenly power can plow the land faster than an ox!
However, this kind of comparison is not what the academy wants to see. Therefore, although the simple Xiafeng people have rave reviews for Xiafeng Academy, Xiafeng Academy itself has not been living a steady life in recent years. Because Zhanfeng College, a small college that has been established for more than 20 years and is less than a quarter of their size, has always had outstanding students overshadowing them in recent years. This kind of talented and outstanding students is what the college is really looking forward to. .
Obviously there are more students and better tutor resources, but we just can’t cultivate top-notch talents. What does this mean?
Ba Liyan could only be thankful that Xiafeng and Zhaofeng were in this remote mountainous area with few people, and they were the only two colleges in the whole area. In the neighboring Zhiling District, there are a total of eighteen colleges, large and small, such as Amaterasu, Shuangji, Ningyuan, Qingqu, etc., and the competition with each other is extremely fierce. Therefore, Zhiling District established a ranking list, which lists the rankings of students from each college in the unified examination. Only the top 50 are selected for the Dianpo list. There are tens of thousands of students in 18 colleges, but only 50 people can be on the list. It can be imagined that the competition is fierce, but the strength of the college reflected by this is also It is basically reliable, so it is widely used in all regions.
This is also the reason why Xiafeng College is anxious. Fortunately, here in Xiafeng District, there is no such clear level of competition among the colleges. It’s just that the two colleges are taking the exam together and each has an idea. If we really want to compete in such an environment, what if there are so many students in Xiafeng College? The first fifty-one are missing. So what if the scale of Zhanfeng Academy is less than one-fifth? Even if one or two students were squeezed into the first fifty miles, the level of attention would immediately exceed that of Xia Feng.
In recent years, in order to expand its influence, Xiafeng College has been planning to participate in the Zhiling District Dianpo Ranking, but for students who are not up to par, it would be self-inflicted to participate. This is why Baaliyan's eyes lit up when he saw Lu Ping, and he was extremely eager to recruit this student to the hospital.
At present, Xia Feng has been unable to take this step, but there are Lu Ping, Su Tang, Xi Fan, and that advanced student who appeared from nowhere in Zhaifeng Academy. If they are allowed to take this step first …
The big exam was over, and Baaliyan became even more anxious.
The Tower of Soul of the first and third grade students was destroyed, resulting in students in these two grades of their college still having no grades. In the second and fourth years, Xiafeng Academy suppressed the limelight of Zhanfeng Academy, but what's the use? Limelight? Basically, no one on either side has the limelight. Students who can reach the 12th floor are already complacent, but if they want to be in the top 50 on the Soul Ranking in Zhiling District, they have to be students who can reach the top of the Soul Tower. This is just the qualification to compete for the Soul Ranking.
The only promising student that Baaliyan saw was Lu Ping. For this reason, he couldn't wait to repair the relationship in person, but he seemed to have hit an iceberg.
The other party didn't seem to resent him much, but he didn't give him any chance to get close. He was just a sixteen-year-old child, but Baaliyan felt that he had no idea what to do.
Then he noticed the spies from the City Lord's Mansion.
It seems that the attention this good card has aroused is not limited to the colleges. What actions will the city lord's palace take? Did they notice Lu Ping because of the strength he showed, or because of something as trivial as him knocking down Wei Tianqi...
On the way back to Xiafeng Academy, Baaliyan was still thinking that he really couldn't give up.
Lu Ping, this name has been remembered by many people in this day.
The big exam day has passed and it’s another early morning.
Lu Ping woke up in the morning light. For him, nothing had changed. Academic studies had always been unnecessary for him. What he has been working hard on for the past three years is how to break through the shackles of this body.
Ding dong dong dong…
Yesterday, he heard this sound twice. To him, this harsh friction and collision sound was once very familiar. During his days in the organization, he could hear this voice every time he was led to do experiments. Along with this sound is endless pain. And everyone around him was just observing and recording expressionlessly.
Pain, stop suffering.
They were like operating some kind of switch, operating it on him day after day, year after year. He endured the pain, numbly and calmly. He didn't know what other choices he had. This was the life he had lived since he could remember.
And before that, where were I? What kind of life do you live? Lu Ping has no idea at all. He doesn't even know his age and has never had a name. Until the day he escaped, he saw the words "Mainland April 24, 1847, three years old" on a page of record paper. He was not even sure whether it belonged to him, but he took it as his A sign of life, which gave him age.
Then when he carried Su Tang on his back and walked hard in the endless sea of snow, he hoped that there would be a road that would not make him so difficult and painful, and that he could walk on it smoothly.
The road is flat.
This was the first time he had such real expectations.
He took his name from it.
(Sanjiang was very busy at night, but many friends still came. Thank you all. I hope I can answer your questions under better conditions next time if I have the opportunity.)
