One night passed, and it was a new day.
Lu Ping opened the door and faced the rising sun. The morning breeze that blew in his face lifted his spirits.
After coming back last night, he continued to practice until he felt tired. Although no progress was made in the end, as far as Lu Ping's cultivation method is concerned, eliminating many ideas and plans can be seen as continuous progress.
Twenty-four days to go.
Lu Ping was also thinking about the days in his heart. Originally, he didn't care much about Beidou Academy, but after learning from Huo Ying that he could see the secret book of Soul Locking in Tianshu Tower on Tianshu Peak, he had a strong desire to stay.
He wants to become stronger.
In this way, he could safely go to Su Tang, Mo Lin, Xi Fan, Teacher Chu Min, and retrieve what Guo Youdao was forced to lose. He would not talk about this wish or show it in front of others, but it was deeply rooted in his heart.
Lifting the shackles of the human body is undoubtedly the most straightforward way for him. But before that, he had to solve the current problem first, how to deal with the power Guo Youdao left for him. This is what he has to do in the next twenty-four days.
Because he had absolute trust in Guo Youdao, he did not feel anxious. He silently sorted out the various methods and ideas he tried yesterday in order to find new clues. At this moment, the door to the next door was pushed open with a creak, and Zi Mu walked out with a pair of dark circles under his eyes.
"Morning." Zimu greeted Lu Ping listlessly. He didn't sleep all night yesterday. The experience on Tianquan Peak made him a little uneasy. When he turned around and came back, he quickly confided that he had promised Jin Qi not to say anything, which made him even more uneasy. Then he thought about his slim future and the first night in the Fifth Academy. It was very torture for Zi Mu. But seeing Lu Ping's energetic face, he wasn't too surprised. Although Lu Ping's experience and situation were very similar to his, he was used to thinking about Lu Ping without using normal logic.
"Morning, didn't you sleep well?" Lu Ping saw that Zi Mu was in a bad state.
"Yes!" Zimu rubbed his eyes. He was so sleepy that his eyes hurt, but when he closed his eyes. But I couldn't sleep. He came to the well in the courtyard and drew a bucket of well water.
"Relax." Lu Ping said.
"I'll try my best," Zimu said.
"Going to have breakfast?" Lu Ping asked.
"Uh..." Zi Mu hesitated slightly, he didn't just suffer from insomnia. He still has no appetite and doesn't feel hungry at all. He only ate half a steamed bun last night.
As a result, at this moment, a rabbit jumped out of their respective doors, one behind the other.
"Alas." Zimu sighed. "If I don't eat it, it has to eat it too!"
The two of them immediately took a shower, but there was no movement in other rooms. I don't know if the others haven't gotten up yet, or if they have already gotten up and don't know what they are busy with. In the end, the two of them each held their own rabbits and went to the canteen of Beishan New Hospital.
The dining hall serves breakfast, lunch and dinner, so you can eat whatever you want. However, according to old students, this is the special preferential treatment Beishan New Hospital gives to newcomers. After leaving Beishan New College, students will have to solve these basic living needs by themselves. No matter how superlative the status of the four major colleges is, things like food, rice, oil and salt are inevitable. Huge expenses for the entire college. All kinds of expenses are supplied, and Tianji Peak is doing the accounting for everyone!
Lu Ping and Zi Mu arrived not too late, but when they arrived at the canteen, what they saw was a scene of people devouring food in a hurry. Everyone seemed to be in a hurry, and some even rushed over to grab some food at random and then hurried again. And go.
"What's going on?" Zi Mu was surprised, and Lu Ping was confused. The two of them stood at the door holding the rabbit and stared at it for a while, and finally saw that everyone left the dining hall in the same direction.
"Hey, where are you going?" Zi Mu rushed out to grab a newcomer at the same time and asked.
"Lecture day." After the man dropped these three words, he broke away from Zi Mu and ran away. Zi Mu already looked relieved. He has heard of the training day! Then, without waiting for Lu Ping to ask questions, he took the initiative to explain.
"Orientation Day is a tradition of Beidou College. It is the first month of admission for new students every year. It is arranged by Qifeng to conduct seven orientations for newcomers. This opportunity is rare, and the person who will come to give lectures to the newcomers may be you. People who will never be contacted again. So let alone the newcomers who have just been admitted to the hospital, you see, no one wants to miss it, maybe there will be people who are not from Beishan New Hospital who will come to listen!" Zimu said. Turning to look at Lu Ping, he saw Lu Ping taking out a few buns from the canteen.
"Hey, did you hear what I said?" Zi Mu said angrily.
"I heard it. Do you want to go and have a look too?" Lu Ping said as he handed a bun to Zi Mu.
"Of course, the opportunity is rare!" Zi Mu took the buns and already had expectations in his heart: Maybe some powerful teacher would give him a sudden enlightenment and make rapid progress?
"Haha." As a result, an old student chuckled lightly. Apparently he heard the two talking, and also saw Zi Mu's expectant mood. As for the meaning of the smile, it goes without saying.
Zi Mu could only pretend that he didn't hear anything, and he and Lu Ping ate the buns while rushing in the direction where everyone was rushing. After finishing the buns, Lu Ping handed Zi Mu another carrot. Zimu took it and gnawed it, and then saw Lu Ping feeding the radish in his hand to the rabbit in his arms.
"Uh..." Zi Mu was stunned. The carrot he was chewing seemed to have changed a bit. After swallowing it reluctantly, he fed the rabbit in his arms like no one else.
Following the direction of the crowd's flow, the two finally arrived at the Seven Stars Downstairs. Arrangements for orientation sessions for newcomers are held here. As Zi Mu guessed, it was not just old students from the second, third, and fourth houses who came to listen. There were even disciples from Qixing Valley and Qifeng who came to listen to the lecture. More than a thousand people gathered outside the Seven Star Building, which no classroom in the Seven Star Building could possibly hold. So everyone just gathered outside the building. As for where the lecturer would give the lecture, neither Lu Ping nor Zimu knew. They came relatively late, at the outermost edge of the crowd. Looking at the back of his head, he didn't know where to focus his eyes.
Later, after asking the students next to me, I realized that I should look at the roof of Qixing Tower. But there was no one there at this time, and it seemed that the powerful teacher had not arrived yet.
"Do you know who will speak today?" Zimu continued to ask the people around him.
"It's time for Yaoguang Peak. The first disciple who came to Yuheng Peak last time was Chen Chu! The people who come to Yaoguang Peak can't be too bad, right?" The person who answered was a little excited. If the instructor is the first disciple of Qifeng, his level is indeed not low. Except for the Seventh Academician and Lu Chenfeng, there are very few people who can compare with the Seven Peaks Chief Disciple. The first disciple of Yuheng Peak is Chen Chu, so the people from other peaks cannot be too inferior. Therefore, everyone’s expectations for this lecture are unprecedentedly high. It's not often that there are so many spectators.
"Ah, we have missed one lesson." Zimu said to Lu Ping with some annoyance. During the last lecture, the two of them were waiting on the rabbit at Yaoguang Peak.
As a result, Lu Ping didn't pay much attention to this. He just looked at the top of the Seven Star Tower and said with some worry: "It's so far away, can you hear it?"
"How could you not hear it?" Zi Mu said nothing, but the guy who popularized it for the two of them laughed, "How heavy is your Ming Zhi Po? Are you still worried about this?"
"Uh..." This question stumped Lu Ping. His Ming Soul has penetration, his six souls have penetration, but right now he can't use it at all!
When that person said that, he obviously felt it a little bit. As soon as he felt it, it didn't matter, he immediately felt it again, and then for the third time, he finally couldn't help but look at Lu Ping: "Where did you come from?"
"Zhaofeng Academy, Lu Ping." Lu Ping introduced himself.
"Uh..." This time it was this guy's turn to be speechless. What he wanted to express was just how could an ordinary person without courage get in here. As a result, the person in front of him really reported his origins to him seriously. Zhaofeng Academy? I’ve never heard of it, but the proud tone this guy took when he mentioned the name of this college really made people a little bit worried! This is Beidou College. When has it been the turn of such an unknown college that I have never heard of to show off its superiority? Where did this come from? Yes, after listening to Lu Ping's answer, this person once again had such doubts in his heart.
Just as he was about to ask a few more questions, the crowd suddenly became excited. A figure finally appeared on the top of the Seven-Star Building, but when he waved to everyone, everyone became confused.
"What's going on? Shouldn't it be Yaoguang Peak? Why are they from Tianquan Peak?" Although the people who came did not disappoint everyone, this doubt is inevitable.
"Because there will be something going on later, I exchanged it with Yaoguang Peak. I don't think we will introduce it too much, right?" The man on the top of the Seven Star Tower said with a smile.
"I don't mind." Everyone shouted.
Tianquan Peak, Jin Qi.
Another Seven Peaks leader, who would mind? Do you still want the Seventh Academician to give lectures to newcomers? (To be continued.)
