Volume II: Academy Chapter 0161: Under the Genius
After Salisbury said these five words, he got up and left without hesitation, as if he was afraid that the two old men would regret it.
He couldn't believe it would be so easy to make money.
He thought he was a lion and waited for the other party to bargain, but the two old men agreed without hesitation.
However, when Salisbury walked out of the tavern, he faintly regretted it, not regretting betraying Renard, but feeling that he had less money.
In the eyes of ordinary people, twenty gold coins were almost astronomical, but in the eyes of the aristocracy, it was just the cost of a grand ball.
If Renard knew that Salisbury had betrayed him for twenty gold coins, he would have to beat his chest angrily, how could the dog's legs he collected be so cunning and cunning, not at all like his master, who was honest and frank.
Of course, the four words of honesty and openness have nothing to do with him, and people will only say after knowing this: the upper beam is not correct and the lower beam is crooked.
Turn your head to look at Renard's side again.
The testing of the art academy is in the classroom, but because there are too many people, the queue is directly lined up at the entrance of the college.
Fortunately, the people who signed up for the art academy were all civilized people, and in order to maintain their own image, they would not crowd around like the group of big bosses in the martial arts academy.
The Faculty of Arts is also divided into many faculties, such as music, painting, dance, and so on.
Renard found that the least number of people signed up for music and painting, and the most people signed up for dance, and he thought about it for a long time before he figured out why.
Because there is no fixed standard for dance in this world, it is completely up to the students to play freely, as long as they can satisfy the instructor, even if you do a striptease, in fact, many students do the same.
Music and painting are not good, the instruments are there, you can play them, you can play, things are there, you can draw.
So when Renard led Betty to the music department, he found that there weren't many people here, at least not as crowded as the dance department.
The entrance test for the music department is very simple, you play the instrument you are best at according to the score, and then play freely, whether it is a famous song or a song you have composed, as long as it satisfies the instructor.
Of course, even if they are not satisfied, they will only be relegated to a lower grade and start from scratch, instead of being expelled directly.
However, this was a catastrophe for the students of the art department, because most of them did not come for the real thing, but for the diploma of the Constantinople Academy of Arts.
With this diploma, they have the capital to brag and cheat, they can go in and out of the balls of the major nobles, and have the opportunity to become each other's guests.
Therefore, in order not to demote themselves, or even go up a few floors, they do everything they can, and the fastest and safest way is to sell their bodies.
Standing at the door of the music department's teaching building, Betty became nervous again, and it was useless to let Renard appease her.
For a girl of civilian origin like her, entering the Academy of Constantinople is a lifelong event, and she must not be careless.
Renard knows that this feeling is like welcoming the college entrance examination, and if you succeed, you will jump into the dragon gate, and if you lose, you will be confused.
Soon, people walked out of the teaching building one after another.
Most of them were dead-faced, obviously not passing the test, either repeating or being relegated, and a very small number of people were elated, apparently getting a good result.
As time went on, more and more people came out crying and even crying.
Seeing this, Betty couldn't help but get even more nervous.
However, it didn't take long for her nervousness to be completely relieved, as she found that the music played by the students was too ......
"I felt like I was playing cotton on the piano. Renard rubbed his forehead vigorously, if he hadn't been with Betty, he would have left the place where the ghost cried wolf.
"Poof!" the student next to him was completely amused by him.
At this point, Betty had adjusted her mindset and entered the classroom marked thirty-two.
Obviously, there are many similar classrooms.
There were three instructors in the classroom, and the instructor stood opposite the lyrics and the score, and when she came in, the eldest of them said, "Play any piece of the sheet that you are good at." ”
This was difficult for Betty, after all, she had been involved in music for several years, so she skillfully set up the violin and played.
After two minutes, the older mentor motioned for her to stop, then exchanged a few words with the other two mentors next to her, and then said to Betty, "The performance can only be said to be okay, barely able to give you a good evaluation." ”
The results of the college are not on a 100-point scale, but are divided into four grades: excellent, good, medium, and poor, and if the performance is too good, it will also be evaluated as excellent.
The illegitimate son Gilbert once received an excellent evaluation for the final examination of the martial arts branch of Arthur College, which made Baron Hammiton proud for a long time, which shows how rare this evaluation is, at least the best in the class.
Therefore, Betty was able to get a good evaluation in the admission test of the elite Academy of Constantinople, which is already an extremely good result.
Immediately afterwards, the teacher said, "Now you can improvise, you can play your own work, you can play other famous songs, and the time is still only two minutes." ”
Betty nodded, took a deep breath, and set up her violin.
Outside the school building, Betty entered the school building less than half a minute later.
"The feeling of bitter sand blowing on the face, like a father's scolding and mother's crying, will never be forgotten. Two old men suddenly appeared, stood beside Renard, and sang "The Sailor."
But they really don't have the talent to sing pop music, and they listen to strange people.
Renard ducked away, looking at the two of them as if they were crazy.
After finishing the song, one of the old men came to him and asked with a smile: "Child, don't you think this song is very familiar?"
Renard didn't bother to talk to the other party, and just turned his head to ignore it.
The old man didn't seem to give up, coughed lightly, and said again: "I heard that you are the chief designer of the Chanel clothing store?"
Renard glanced at the old man again, still refusing to answer.
Seeing this, another old man stepped forward and asked, "You wrote that song just now, it's very good." ”
The art students next to them were simply dumbfounded, their stereotypical Vice Dean Vernon would actually praise people, and even praise the person dressed as a martial artist in front of him, which is really unbelievable.
Sir Joshua nodded in affirmation, "Yes, it does sound good." ”
Then he introduced himself: "My name is Joshua, you can call me Sir Joshua, I am a professor of music at the Academy of Arts in Constantinople, if you are interested in music, you may wish to come to me to discuss." ”
He used the word "discussion" to show that Renard had been placed on an equal footing, not the cadets, which surprised the cadets even more.
Vernon, who was next to him, added, "Or simply transfer to our art school." ”
At this time, the mood of the students can only be described as shocking, am I dreaming, Vice Dean Vernon actually personally invited others to join the School of Art?
However, to the surprise of the students, they saw Renard tugging at the corners of his mouth and saying in a flat tone: "I don't understand art." ”
