"..."
When Wheat's words were spoken.
There was a strange silence between Xu Yun and Mai Mai.
Xu Yun felt like there was a hole stuck in his throat, and he couldn't spit it out or swallow it.
how to say......
As expected of a gay man from England, even Xiaomai’s ideas are so gay.
But from a certain perspective, what Wheat said seems to make some sense?
Thomson went to Scotland for wheat and almost lost his life. After returning to school, he turned a blind eye to Ellis, who had been his classmate for three years...
Isn't this the standard Tiansheng versus Qingmei drama?
Ahem... I'm thinking too far.
Then Xu Yun took a deep breath, straightened his expression, and said to Xiaomai:
"Mr. Maxwell, I need to remind you that Senior Ellis is obviously also a competitor for the President of the Student Union."
"You and I... No, I should say only you. The bond between you and Mr. Thomson has been analyzed before, and it can be regarded as a fatal weakness."
"So in the future, you must be more careful with Ellis - Ellis is not Alice. He gets too close and has no book to read."
Xiaomai subconsciously glanced towards the entrance of the classroom and nodded thoughtfully.
Mentioned previously.
The President of the Student Union of Cambridge University has great power and can be said to dominate the campus, but the risks during the election campaign are also high.
Candidates who lose the election will immediately drop out of school, leaving an indelible stain on their files that will last their entire lives.
In other words.
Cambridge students who have the courage to run for president of the Student Union should have some special connections or trump cards.
So once Ellis takes action against wheat, this honest kid from the Scottish countryside may not be able to survive it.
Xu Yun even had a suspicion that the core scoring item in this student federation president election was the defense of Xiaomai, the halo of being a student with reduced fees.
If the wheat can be pulled down from the clouds, Ellis will have a high rating among the senior management of Cambridge, and there is a high probability that he will become the president of the Student Union.
On the contrary, Thomson takes over.
After all, Cambridge University has more than ten colleges with a high degree of autonomy from each other. Not everyone is willing to let wheat grow up.
Xu Yun is more inclined to think that the top management is at a more delicate balance point of the game, and both sides are waiting for the curtain to rise after the semester starts.
Just as Xu Yun was talking to Xiaomai.
At the teacher's entrance, another 'acquaintance' of Xu Yun walked in:
Aveline Aisku.
This blond girl is still the same as when we met, holding a thick book in her trademark arms, exuding a strong literary atmosphere.
Her tranquil expression was like a puddle of autumn water, making it difficult to associate her with that naughty kid Lilani.
Cambridge University currently recruits a limited number of female students, and 90% of the entire classroom is composed of older men, who look like Xu Yun's readership group in his previous life.
In addition, Aveline's appearance was outstanding, so whether it was an illusion or not, Xu Yun always felt that with the appearance of this girl, the voices in the classroom seemed to become quieter.
At this time, Aveline had no companions with her. After entering the classroom, she glanced around a few times and soon spotted Xu Yun, who stood out among a bunch of Europeans.
Then she walked to Xu Yun and Xiaomai holding the book, and nodded to Xu Yun and Xiaomai:
"Maxwell, Luo Feng, good morning."
"Hello, senior/classmate Aveline."
Mai Mai and Xu Yun also greeted her at the same time, and then Xu Yun asked curiously:
"Student Aveline, are you attending the student union department or..."
Aveline raised her eyelids and glanced at him, tucked a strand of hair hanging down behind her ear, and replied:
"There is no attendance requirement from the Ministry of Internal Affairs today. Of course I am here to attend the opening ceremony. I am entering the first year of graduate school this year."
"Unlike other colleges, the four Cambridge Divinity Schools, including Trinity College, hold opening ceremonies together every year - otherwise, why do you think the ceremony is held in such a big place?"
Xu Yun was stunned for a moment, and then he came to his senses:
Yes.
I almost forgot, Aveline is also a first-year graduate student like me...
Then he suddenly thought of something and said to Aveline:
"Student Aveline, so the four people at the entrance of the classroom are all students from four seminaries?"
Aveline nodded:
"That's right."
Xu Yun suddenly felt enlightened.
No wonder you see people from four schools at the entrance. It turns out that everyone is attending the opening ceremony together?
Many colleges at Cambridge University have established theology majors, but in 1850, there were only four that could really be called theological colleges:
Trinity College, St. Peter's College, Jesus College and Emmanuel College.
As for another Christian college that sounds a lot like a seminary, it is actually a liberal arts college with a very high academic level.
For example, Deng Yaping, who is well-known in the table tennis world, obtained her doctorate in land economics from Christ College.
Of course.
Although the name of the seminary has a strong religious character, it seems to have countless dogmas, and it seems that you have to read the Bible and pray day and night.
But in fact.
Regardless of coursework or daily life, the seminary is not particularly sectarian.
In fact, it is not the students but the teachers who are actually subject to the requirements of sectarian norms in the seminary. If you want to be a professor in the seminary, you must obtain the priesthood.
For example, with the famous Gloria.
In 1839, he entered Trinity College, Cambridge University, and served as an intern professor for three years after graduation. When he became a full-time professor, he was forced to go to London and became a lawyer because he was not a believer.
It was not until the school regulations changed in 1863 that he was officially hired as Sadler Professor at Cambridge.
That's why.
Only an Easterner like Xu Yun, who had no basis in faith at first glance, was allowed to study in the hospital.
Otherwise, in the face of religious precepts, let alone the Mavericks’ autograph letter.
Even if you resurrect the calf, it will not be an exception - whoever breaks it will die.
Then Xu Yun looked at Aveline, his 'creditor', hesitated for a moment, and asked:
"Classmate Aveline, do you know the senior named Ellis at the door?"
When Aveline heard this, a strange expression appeared on her face:
"You mean Frederick Agar Ellis?"
Xu Yun nodded:
"That's right."
Aveline was silent for a moment and said:
"I know him. He is a very outstanding senior at Trinity College. He and Senior Thomson have won the first and second place in the mathematics department of Trinity College in the past few years."
"Their relationship was relatively harmonious originally, but since the person that Senior Ellis likes confessed his love to Senior Thomson, the two have become somewhat incompatible..."
"For example, this time Senior Thomson just announced that he would run for President of the Student Union, and Senior Ellis signed up the next day, showing his determination to fight to the death."
Xu Yun:
"..."
Good guy.
Love triangle.
Reasons that are as cliché as they come, yet so reasonable.
In reality, there are countless cases where love triangles lead to antagonism. Xu Yun has several examples of this happening around him, and even almost killed someone.
Xiaomai on the side thought of something and asked with some gossip:
"By the way, Senior Sister Aveline, did Mr. Thomson accept that person's confession later?"
Aveline quickly gave an expected answer:
"No, Senior Thomson rejected him."
Xu Yun nodded subconsciously, but suddenly paused as his head shook, and he noticed a word from Aveline's mouth:
"Wait, classmate Aveline, you said Senior Thomson rejected... him?"
Aveline spread her hands innocently:
"Yes, that's Senior Ellis's roommate, and he was also the third best in the mathematics department for a long time." (Note: True story)
Xu Yun glanced at Xiaomai and twitched the corner of his mouth:
"..."
Why do I feel like this is so much more outrageous than Wheat’s imagination...
And at the same time, the corners of Xu Yun's mouth twitched.
There was another movement at the entrance of the classroom.
After a while.
More than ten people came bustling outside the door.
And unlike the young faces of the students, the newcomers are quite young, at least thirty years old.
The expression is solemn and the clothes are decent.
Two of them are Xu Yun’s acquaintances:
William Whewell, Dean of Trinity College, and his own cheap tutor, Stokes.
It is clear.
The main leaders and professors of the four seminaries arrived.
In addition, Xu Yun also noticed that this group of people was divided into four echelons:
Stokes and other younger professors followed last.
In front of them were some veteran professors or school leaders who were in their fifties or sixties and looked very qualified.
The second echelon is represented by William Whewell, four young old men, who are, not surprisingly, the deans or executive deans of the four seminaries.
As for the first echelon...
only one person.
This is a middle-aged man about the same age as Stokes. He has a beard on his upper lip and his brown hair is combed to every detail.
Wearing a lord's dress, he looks majestic and elegant.
no doubt.
This person must be...
The then Chancellor of Cambridge University, the husband of Queen Victoria, the most famous uncrowned king in British history...
Francis Albert Augustus Charles Emmanuel.
As these college leaders entered.
The entire lecture theater suddenly fell silent, and the atmosphere became visibly solemn.
At the same time, Xu Yun also discovered.
While he was chatting with Aveline, quite a part of the classroom was already filled with students.
Taking a quick look around, the number of people should be around three hundred and fifty.
Just like that, about ten minutes passed.
After the leaders took their seats in the first row, William Whewell walked to the podium, picked up the bell on the table and shook it:
"Students, please be quiet!"
The crisp ringtone, accompanied by the rich voice, quickly spread throughout the classroom.
"Um?"
Listening to the clear male voice coming from his ears, Xu Yun let out a light sigh.
I looked around a few times.
as expected.
He found several large tanks filled with water at the four corners of the classroom, and some hollow copper cans placed at certain intervals behind the podium.
This is a relatively primitive but also very effective means of amplification before the appearance of loudspeakers, which relies on sound wave resonance to achieve amplification effects within a small area.
However, compared to the West, this method was actually more common in ancient China.
After a few seconds.
William Whewell put down the bell, coughed slightly, and said:
"Hello to all the geniuses from all over the world, I am William Whewell, the dean of Trinity College and the speaker at today's opening ceremony."
There was a burst of applause from the audience soon.
After the applause died down.
William Whewell looked around, nodded to everyone, and continued:
“This year, Cambridge University’s four theological schools have admitted a total of 374 new students.
"There are 223 undergraduate students with an average age of 17.4 years old, and 151 graduate students with an average age of 24 years old."
"These 374 people come from 87 towns in the UK and 11 countries around the world, and more than 11% of the new students are international students."
"Nearly 59% of you are the first in your family to graduate or graduate, and nine of you are veterans. On behalf of the University of Cambridge, I welcome you!"
"Cambridge University, as its motto says, is the place of enlightenment, the source of knowledge, and the most mysterious palace of truth in the world..."
"Cambridge University has produced countless well-known alumni, such as the greatest scientist Isaac Newton, the art master Byron who created the epoch, the novice fisherman who will definitely update 30,000 a day next time, etc..."
"...We are confident that you will find your way and your friends. Rest assured that Cambridge will change you and, in turn, you will change us all..."
William Whewell is indeed one of the philosophers who can establish a sect at the moment, and his preparation in terms of rhetoric is impeccable.
Even Xu Yun, a time traveler from later generations, was listening with gusto and didn't feel bored at all.
With William Whewell's speech, the atmosphere of the entire ceremony gradually reached a climax.
"...Every student here is a unique genius. Your growth may even be related to the direction of human history. Therefore, in terms of teachers, the school will naturally do its best to allocate the best .”
Finish this sentence.
William Whewell adjusted his position.
He straightened his left hand like an auctioneer, flattened his palm and said to the audience:
"So please allow me to take some time to introduce to you the strongest leadership and teaching lineups in our four colleges."
After speaking, he took a deep breath and his voice suddenly rose a little higher:
"The first thing I want to introduce is our spiritual pillar, the President of Cambridge University, the Honorable Prince Albert!"
The words just fell.
Prince Albert, who was sitting in the first row, stood up, put his right hand on his chest, and nodded to the students.
Bang bang bang!
The audience immediately burst into warm applause and cheers, and some even shed tears in excitement.
The time when Prince Albert took real power was probably around 1845. This timeline has not yet exploded, and the public's vision still remains in the United Kingdom...or Europe.
Therefore, Albert's attention in the UK is higher than in the original history.
At the same time, in the eyes of these college students who have just entered the ivory tower, the love between Albert and Victoria is basically no different from the reality of fairy tales. Conceptually, it is almost equivalent to Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai in the East.
in this case.
Nine out of ten students are fans of Prince Albert, and the remaining one is secretly in love with Queen Victoria.
There are a few girls’ expressions...
How to put it, Xu Yun even doubted whether Albert was a self-propelled aphrodisiac in human form.
If those idiot fans in future generations have the opportunity to visit Fanfan in prison, the picture they will show may be like this...
After Prince Albert took his seat.
William Whewell stretched out his hand and pressed down again, signaling everyone to quiet down.
Then he continued to introduce:
"The second person I want to introduce to you is the current dean of Emmanuel College, Mr. Abu Teldorek!"
Compared to Prince Albert, the applause this time was obviously much sparser.
The largest area is on the right side of Xu Yun, which should be the area of Emmanuel College.
William Whewell's expression remained unchanged as he continued to introduce other leaders:
"Milton Sierra....President of Jesus College...."
"Drizzt Hope...Headmaster of Peter Academy..."
"Harvey Badge...Director of Student Registration..."
There were no acquaintances with Xu Yun among the college leaders. The only thing that surprised him was one thing:
Drizzt Hope, who should have been dismissed in 1847, is still in office.
be honest.
This person can be regarded as a relatively rare upright person in this era.
Like Wheat, he once strongly opposed the invasion of China, but the reason for his opposition was a little more special.
Drizzt Hope is a standard devout believer, the kind who is consistent in appearance and deeds:
He believed that invading China was an extremely inferior and unethical approach, and he would inevitably be judged after his death.
Therefore, he wiped out all Peter College students who participated in Yiwu and made it clear that students from Peter College were not allowed to participate in any aggressive actions.
In the end, this brother lasted less than a year and was dismissed.
Therefore, his actions may be more subtle to evaluate.
You may not say how friendly he is to China. After all, his starting point is based on his own religious beliefs.
If the target of the invasion is another country, he will do the same thing.
If we really define it, international friends may not even be counted.
But political definitions aside, the word integrity clearly qualifies.
This can be considered one of the complexities of religion.
No matter which sect in China or the West, if you can really believe in it to such an extremely pious level, there is no harm in it.
But there are too few such people. Nowadays, most of them are just half-empty people who go about their business under the skin.
His eyes returned to reality.
The school leaders of the four colleges are generally civilian personnel, so it is normal for Xu Yun not to understand them well.
But when William Whewell introduced the professor, something unexpected happened to Xu Yun.

"Brother Shen!"
"Um!"
When Shen Changqing walks on the road, whenever he encounters familiar people, he will say hello or nod to each other.
But no matter who it is.
There was no unnecessary expression on everyone's face, as if they were indifferent to everything.
To this.
Shen Changqing has become accustomed to it.
Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, an organization that maintains the stability of the Qin Dynasty. Its main responsibility is to kill monsters and monsters. Of course, there are also some other side jobs.
It can be said.
Everyone in the Demon Suppression Division has a lot of blood on their hands.
When a person is used to seeing life and death, he will become indifferent to many things.
When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but he got used to it over time.
The Demon-Suppressing Division is huge.
Those who can stay in the Demon Suppressing Division are all powerful masters, or those who have the potential to become masters.
Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.
Among them, the Demon Suppressor Division is divided into two professions, one is the Guardian Envoy and the other is the Demon Slayer.
Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Department starts from the lowest level as a demon slayer.
The website will be closed soon. Download the Aiyue app to watch the latest content for free.
Then he will be promoted step by step, and he is expected to eventually become a guardian envoy.
Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level among the demon slayers.
Possessing the memory of a previous life.
He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.
It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of a loft.
Unlike other places in the Demon Suppressing Division that were full of chills, the attic here seemed to stand out from the crowd, showing a different kind of tranquility in the bloody Demon Suppressing Division.
At this time, the attic door was open, and occasionally people came in and out.
Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment before stepping in.
Enter the attic.
The environment changes in vain.
The fragrance of ink mixed with the faint smell of blood hit his face, making him frown instinctively, but then relaxed it quickly.
There is almost no way to cleanse away the smell of blood on everyone in the Demon-Suppressing Division.
