Entering the hall, Cody was a little afraid of his father's gaze and could only lower his head to avoid it. On the contrary, the three people from Keda were looking forward with excitement and expectation, waiting for the test that they had been preparing for for many years.
Mulan looked at the four muscular young men in front of him and nodded with satisfaction. Although there has not been a test yet, the fact that they are much taller than their peers can already prove their strength. Although Rosser is relatively thin, it can be seen that he has also been trained for a long time. Although he is thin, he is not thin.
Mullan did not ask who Cody was. Although they had not seen each other for many years and the child's appearance had changed a lot, some traces of his childhood could still be seen. Besides, with such a lackluster and evasive look on his face, who else could he be but the son of an old friend who was in conflict with the academy.
Walking in front of the four people, Mulan moved his nose and asked about the strong smell of alcohol. He understood what was going on and could probably guess the reason. Thinking about it, he had been in the same situation before. Whether he was expecting or avoiding, I hope I can have a last day of my own. However, he still kept a straight face and said coldly: "Young man, tell me your name."
"Cody Alton"
"Keda Lintes"
"Rose Cary"
"Jeroca Mott"
Mulan nodded and continued: "Well, they are all families of nobles and warriors that I know. I believe you have made enough efforts for today. But, young man, as the descendants of warriors and nobles, you have committed such a big mistake. You made a mistake and were late all morning. Although there are still a few days until the end of the selection, is this your attitude? I even smelled a heavy smell of alcohol on you. Do you feel that you are not worthy of your status? You can definitely pass my test. In fact, let alone the test, with my status as the examiner and your attitude, I can directly eliminate you all."
When the four of them heard the last sentence, they were first shocked, then frightened, looking at each other at a loss.
Cody also felt the examiner's anger and felt flustered. Although it is true that he does not want to go to the War College, if he does not even participate in the selection and is directly eliminated, then the Alton family and the families of the three friends will become the biggest joke in Norma City, and his father will never be able to respect him because of this. At first, the three friends may be disappointed. After all, this is their biggest goal for the time being. I really didn't know that one indulgence would have such big consequences, and the four of them had already begun to regret it.
Carruth was also anxious, but when he looked at Lant and saw his calm and even interested expression, he no longer worried.
Seeing the panic of the four of them, Mulan snickered in his heart, "Little guy, if I don't give you a clue in advance, I won't know why you are making trouble when you enter the academy." After a slight cough, Mulan continued: " Although you have made quite a few mistakes, considering your youth and the dedication of your elders to the empire, I can still give you a chance. But mistakes will be punished, so your test will change. The next test of your physical fitness is an actual battle with four of our instructors.
"But you don't have to worry, we will not use all our strength, nor will we use any martial arts or fighting spirit, including weapons. And you can use any methods and weapons you like."
Cody asked loudly: "Excuse me, how far do we need to go to meet your requirements? It is impossible for us to defeat you."
Mulan nodded silently. This guy was really good and he didn't agree blindly. "Defeat us? You think too highly of yourself. Even if we stop, the four of you together can't defeat any of our mentors. The condition is that within three minutes, use your strongest strength to attack like the mentor. As for whether you can If you can pass, the instructor will naturally judge. Are there any questions? If not, start the test immediately, because you have already wasted too much of my time, and the warrior's time should not be wasted on useless boys like you. Just a reminder, although We won’t really hurt you, but we will definitely make you feel pain. How about it, are you willing to accept this test?”
"Yes, we are willing to accept the test." The four of them did not hesitate, and they did not dare to hesitate anymore, for fear that the instructor would change his mind and not accept the selection in the next second.
He pointed at the three theater instructors sitting on the chairs behind him, "You three, take charge of these three boys. Remember the rules and let them suffer a little, lest they really think they are so great." Then he turned to look. To Cody, "As for this guy who talks a lot and looks like he hasn't woken up yet, let me do it myself and let me see what he is capable of. Boy, go pick your weapons and I will make you pay for your attitude." Pay some price."
Cody felt dizzy for a while and asked himself why he talked so much. He really didn't know how he provoked this annoying mentor. Looking at his father sitting not far away, and seeing his father nodding, Cody could only helplessly follow the soldiers leading the way to choose weapons.
After several people walked away, Lant walked up to Mulan and said dissatisfied: "What are you doing? Doesn't the academy selection only require physical fitness? Let the four of them fight against the instructor, even if the instructor only uses Their physical strength is not something they can resist, so how can they pass the test?"
Mulan sneered: "Did I tell you the assessment standards? I said the instructor has the final say whether you pass or not."
Lant wondered: "Then what are you doing? This will hit them."
Mulan reluctantly patted Lant on the shoulder and said: "Old friend, you are too worried. If they can't even bear this blow, how can they survive in the academy and graduate. You are also from the academy, you know It's hard and cruel inside. Moreover, if they are so beaten that they can't accept it, they might as well give up now and save themselves from becoming the laughing stock of the college in the future. Why do you think the difficulty of the assessment is increased? It's just for their consideration. If it really doesn't work, It can also be said to the outside world that they failed because they were punished and made more difficult, allowing the instructor to choose directly through combat. This way other people would not have bad comments. But I am sure that none of the four of them will appear. I am very optimistic about the results you are worried about. As of today, I have not seen any child who is physically stronger than them. Even the child named Rose Cary is the same. If I am not mistaken, he Will be a good raider in the future.
"The most important thing is that these children are so good. If they don't give them some setbacks in advance, they will really be unable to bear the blow when they really fail. You have seen many such outstanding people end up It's hard to recover. Also, people who are too good are always proud. I'm afraid that the instructors in the college will be difficult to manage. After all, we need excellent warriors, not loners. If they are too strict, I'm afraid that their temperament will be worn away. Strict, fearing that they will eventually become difficult to discipline,"
Only then did Rant suddenly realize. He nodded and gave Mulan a thumbs up, "Mulan is worthy of being called the Knight of Wisdom. He still has as many clever ideas as before."
Mulan punched Lant's chest and said angrily: "What do you mean by weird ideas? I've been thinking too much. It's not for these children and the empire. No, I have used my brain too much today. I must go to your house tonight. You have to entertain us with the fine wine that Uncle Kenya has hidden."
"No problem, no problem, it's all trivial. If my father sees you, I don't need to tell him, he will definitely take out the good stock himself." Lant laughed, thinking of his father's wine collection, he was also a little greedy, It's a pity that the old man hid it too tightly. He said it several times and didn't taste it. Today, he just took advantage of Mulan to drink it.
While the two were talking, the four teenagers had already selected their weapons and returned to the hall.
Mulan also stopped joking and said to the four of them: "Very good, I won't repeat the rules. You, come with me." He pointed at Cody who was holding a wooden sword, and then walked to an open space in the hall, " Now, use your strongest ability to attack me, remember, three minutes."
Cody followed Mulan, about five meters away from him. After seeing Mulan nodding, he took a deep breath, raised his sword and clenched it with both hands. He shouted and rushed towards Mulan with all his strength. The sword in his hand was He chopped it down without hesitation. He knew that he was an instructor who could never injure his face, as long as he survived for three minutes, that would be enough.
Mulan took his time and didn't move until the sword was almost in front of him. He easily avoided it as soon as he moved his steps. Cody didn't stop when he struck the air with his sword, and continued to attack Mulan horizontally with the long sword in his hand. However, he consciously moved at a good speed in front of Mulan, like a child just learning to walk. He still waited until he was about to be struck before he started to dodge. .
Cody chased the constantly moving Mulan and slashed continuously, but found that he missed every time. When it seemed that he could hit, Mulan was always like a ghost, and he could perfectly avoid it with just a slight movement. Cody kept chasing in various ways, but he was always just a little short.
After another miss, Mulan ducked behind Cody, kicked him on the butt, and staggered him forward a few steps. When Cody turned around, he sneered: "Is this all you have? You Is this how your father taught you? It seems that I think too highly of you. With these two tricks, let alone entering the academy, I feel that even asking you to take the exam is the greatest tolerance for you."
No matter how smart Cody is, he is still just a child. He was so angry when he was laughed at by Mulan. After screaming wildly, he attacked Mulan crazily. He no longer had the moves he was able to do with ease just now. He was just hacking and slashing randomly, just to Release the anger in your heart.
Feeling Cody's more violent attack than before, Mulan dodged and snickered: The brat still has strength, but he is still too young. He has lost his mind after just a few words. That's fine, if he is too steady. , it will be difficult to stimulate his potential in the future.
In order to give Cody more stimulation, Mullan would dodge and slap Cody on the head from time to time, neither lightly nor severely, but extremely insulting. After Cody gasped and the attack slowly weakened, Mulan said a few words: "You have a good temper, but your strength is not that good. The few random chops you shouted just now will not be your last ability. If that's the case, I think you don't need to continue. Entering the academy is of no use to you. It's better to sing in the opera or become a lumberjack, which is more suitable for you."
Cody's anger ignited again, this time no longer spawning, just attacking at a faster pace. Mulan dodged again and again until he retreated to the corner of the hall. When Cody stopped what he was doing and was about to speak, he saw Cody leaping high with his legs bent, and the long sword in his hand was shrouded in light.
Blast!
Mulan narrowed his eyes. It turned out that Lant was not bragging. This boy could indeed use his fighting spirit. One of Lant's special martial arts skills, Wind Slash, relies on the speed of the wind. It can suddenly launch a sudden blow to the opponent. However, this kid does not seem to have grasped the essence. He has speed, but he attacks openly and honestly because he is afraid that the opponent will not. Time dodge?
Just as he was about to escape, he found that he had come to the corner. There was no other way out except to get under Cody. However, Mulan would not allow himself to do such a thing, otherwise it would be really embarrassing.
Brat, you are waiting for me here. But your little idea may be in vain.
The long sword full of fighting spirit arrived in front of Mulan in an instant. Without avoiding it, Mulan put his hands together and held the fast long sword in his palms. Before he had time to speak, his expression changed, and he immediately raised his right foot and kicked back Cody's kick towards his crotch that was no less speed than the Wind Slash. Then he snorted coldly, and then landed a kick on Cody's chest, kicking him backwards and falling to the ground.
"time up."
