Chapter 147 Open Class (1)
Putting away the three books, Zhong Hou asked Ning Fengzi a lot of questions, and then rushed back to his cave mansion non-stop, and began to slowly read the contents carefully.
He was not in a hurry to learn exploration techniques, but through communication with Ning Fengzi, he found that just knowing that there were three mineral veins in the Wind Volcano Forest could not necessarily find the real answer to the problem of monkey wine and water, and he also needed to enrich his relevant knowledge in order to further investigate the truth.
In this way, Zhong Hou immersed himself in the ocean of knowledge.
Time passed imperceptibly, and today is already the day of the open class. If it weren't for Lan Bufan's reminder, Zhong Hou would have almost forgotten.
Open classes are divided into open classes for outer disciples and open classes for inner disciples, as well as open courses for cultivation and open classes for occupations.
The core disciples of the Star Mantle Realm are already considered to be old birds in the cultivation world, most of them are over 100 years old with average talents, and there are many people who are hundreds of years old, they have all learned what they should learn, and it doesn't mean much to them in class, they need more experience and epiphany.
Therefore, the sect did not set up an open class for core disciples.
The cultivation open class explains all kinds of knowledge related to cultivation, and the outer disciples and the inner disciples have different realms and different understandings of cultivation, so naturally they can't take classes together.
The vocational open class is a professional skills course for various occupations, and there is no requirement for the realm, and the outer disciples and inner disciples are mostly mixed together.
Today is a cultivation class, and the class location of the outer disciples is the open-air class in the front mountain of the teaching peak, and the back mountain is the class belonging to the inner disciples.
The inner and outer disciples add up to nearly 300,000, and the only places that can accommodate so many people at one time are the main peak of Half Moon Mountain Villa and this place called Zhuye Peak.
It is a multi-functional base, and in addition to holding classes, it is also a place for various sect competitions.
Although the sect does not require everyone to participate, they are generally not absent except for tasks.
The teachers are all sect elders, and they may retreat for years or even decades at a time. With such frequent public classes, it is impossible to put the blame on the same elder.
Therefore, from the sect master to the ordinary elders in the sect, except for Yang Mu, they will take turns to teach.
Zhong Hou followed behind Lan Bufan, but his mind was still filled with countless new knowledge at this time, and he didn't realize at all when he had come to the foot of the Teach Ye Peak.
Zhong Hou is already an out-and-out celebrity, whether it is his glorious deeds in the past or the name of his young sect master, it has spread all over the sect.
It's just that there are many people who know his name, but not many have actually seen a real person.
Even if there were more than 100,000 disciples watching inside and outside the square of the Killing and Lian Pagoda that day, there were too many people at that time, and Zhong Hou was surrounded by a number of high-level sect leaders, and no one could see Zhong Hou's true face at all.
Along the way, everyone didn't pay much attention to this unfamiliar face.
The constant flow of people brought a breeze that pulled Zhong Hou back to reality.
Temporarily let go of the desire to continue studying, and climbed all the way up with the disciples who were preparing to participate in today's open class.
Although Lan Bufan had not participated in an open class, as a senior second-generation cultivator, he was very familiar with the environment, and the two of them had already come to the class of the open class of the outer disciples not long after.
The classroom was open-air, and the cold wind here was hunting, but it did not blow away the enthusiasm of the disciples for learning.
I saw that at this time, the black pressure was full of heads, and I couldn't tell the difference between the southeast and the northwest, and I couldn't tell how big this open-air classroom was.
Helpless, Zhong Hou could only use his strong body to overbearing through the crowd to the front.
Since I am here for class today, I naturally need to have an attitude of learning. And being able to occupy a favorable position is also a manifestation of serious study.
What is a vantage point?
The closest position to the teaching elders is naturally a vantage point.
There is no doubt that the position in the front row is definitely the closest to the elders.
Zhong Hou's behavior immediately aroused public anger, but seeing that the other party's arm was thicker than his thigh, many people chose to stop fighting, but the expression on his face was full of anger.
On the surface, the front and back of the position are arbitrary, so to speak, first-come, first-served, but in fact, there is a recognized unspoken rule hidden inside. That is, the order of the outer door ranking is used to determine the order of position.
There are only 100 seats in the first row, which means that only 100 people in front of the outer door are eligible to sit down. And Zhong Hou, a 'little-known' unfamiliar face, is obviously not among them.
The most important point is that in every public class, the disciples have the opportunity to ask questions of the elders. And in the front row, it is obvious that the chance of being named by the teaching elder is the greatest.
Tai Shujun, the outer door ranks second, second only to Kuai Jun.
Although Zhong Hou did not have a head-on conflict with him in the process of squeezing through the crowd just now, as the second child of the outer door, this matter must not be ignored, otherwise others will think that he, the second outside door, is afraid of this stunned young man who does not understand the rules.
As for Kuai Jun, who is usually not absent, he didn't appear today. I don't know if it's delayed by other things, or if it's a final preparation for the upcoming bet.
"This little junior brother, you should have just entered the outer gate, right?" As the second ranked outer door, Tai Shujun still showed his due strength and demeanor at the beginning.
If it's a newcomer who doesn't understand the rules, it's still forgivable.
Zhong Hou is indeed a newcomer, and he really doesn't know the Tao in it. But even if you knew, you would just laugh it off.
Don't say that he is a veritable young sect master, just say that he has a serious attitude of studying, it is impossible to give up the position in the front row.
"I did just enter the outer door. β
"Hehe, since the little junior brother has just entered the outer door, I don't blame you as a senior brother. Those who can sit in the first row are ranked in the top 100 at the outer door, and others can't sit randomly. The implication is obvious, that is, Zhong Hou is to give way.
Zhong Hou understood the meaning, but who are you?
"You are?"
"Hehe... My name is Uncle Tai, and I am lucky to be temporarily ranked second on the list of outer doors. β
No wonder it's so domineering, and he doesn't even let people sit in a position. . .
"The first row was specially arranged by the sect for the top 100 senior brothers and sisters?"
Seeing Zhong Hou's innocent and ignorant expression, the corners of Uncle Tai's mouth twitched, but he still said truthfully: "No." β
"Since it's not, why can only the top 100 people from the outer door sit in the first row?"
"Since the junior brother doesn't understand, the senior brother will spread it out and tell you. Uncle Tai didn't answer Zhong Hou's question directly, and his expression began to gradually turn cold.
After a pause, his voice was slightly chilly, and he said: "Although there are no regulations in the sect, being able to sit in the front row is itself a status symbol and a qualification. Senior brother, you have just entered the outer door, and you are not qualified to sit in the front row for the time being, so let's obediently go to the back to listen to the class. β
Zhong Hou frowned and said, "Since the sect has no regulations, it doesn't seem fair to other disciples for senior brother to do this." β
Hearing this, Uncle Tai laughed arrogantly and said, "Hahaha... You are so naΓ―ve ... In this world, the strong are respected, and there is nothing fair at all, especially a weak person like you, who is not even qualified to talk about fairness. β
With Tai Shujun taking the lead, many disciples who were just dissatisfied with Zhong Hou also echoed it.
