Chapter 123: Bottleneck
29th.
A huge giant city appeared in front of Zhou Ming and the others.
The traffic is busy, the hustle and bustle is lively, and there are patches of high-rise buildings, one higher than the other.
With a population of nearly 20 million, the city's GDP still ranks first among 10,000 countries.
In terms of the level of science and technology, the quality of the population, infrastructure, and so on, it will take at least five to ten years for other cities that are close to catch up to catch up.
Daxian College in the west of the city.
It is the greatest pride of the city.
Covering an area of more than 8,000 acres, it has more than 50,000 high-quality students, 3,000 professors of various types, and more than 10 super-large buildings.
Including the library with a collection of more than 50 million books, it is 200 meters high, has 50 floors, and can accommodate 10,000 students.
The four corners of the campus have four super-large spirit gathering pagodas, each 160 meters high, with 40 floors, and each spirit gathering tower can accommodate up to 5,000 students to practice.
The four large spirit gathering pagodas can basically meet the cultivation needs of the teachers and students of the whole school.
In addition, there are a large number of sports facilities, student activity centers, auditoriums and other facilities in Daxian College to enrich students' spare time.
The most eye-catching thing is the mountain behind the school, which is based on the mountain, and the statue of the sage Zhang Shanhe carved out can be seen in the entire Zhenlin City.
Coupled with the nearly 50-year history of this college, the campus environment of green trees and the fragrance of birds and flowers, Daxian College has always been the first choice for outstanding students to apply for the examination.
The admission score of 558 points announced this year means that only students who are close to the mid-stage of condensate cultivation can be admitted to this prestigious college.
At the age of 14 or 5 years old, if you don't say that you have reached the middle stage of condensation, you can break through to the stage of condensation, and you can be said to be a genius who is out of a thousand miles.
With such a genius, Daxian Academy enrolls more than 10,000 people every year.
This was unimaginable more than 20 years ago.
The "era of national cultivation" designed by Zhou Ming in his previous life has finally been realized.
30th.
Go through the admission procedures with the admission letter.
Depending on the major, the annual tuition fee for each student ranges from 80,000 to 100,000 Lingyuan, and considering the family conditions of some students, the school can also provide grants and student loans, as well as some part-time jobs suitable for poor students, you can apply.
In addition, the cultivation of a monk in the condensate period represents his ability to repay the loan, and there is no need to worry about not being able to pay the tuition fee.
However, Zhou Ming, a local tyrant, not only paid his own tuition, but also solved the tuition fees of Chen En, Lei Zuolei's right brother, and Zhang Yu, who generally have little money, less than 400,000 spirit coins, and Zhou Ming didn't want them to pay it back, saying that he only helped them with the first year, and they made money to pay the tuition fees in the next few years.
Chen En insisted: "No matter what, when we make money in the future, we have to pay it back to the boss first." ”
"I hope the boss respects our abilities. "The same thing is true of the Lei Zuo and Lei right brothers.
"I'll pay you back as soon as I can within this semester. Zhang Yu said that she found an extracurricular part-time job yesterday with a monthly salary of 15,000, and she was very satisfied with this part-time job.
Zhou Ming nodded and didn't say anything more.
And then it's up to each of them.
According to the different attributes of human qualifications, there are a total of 15 colleges in Daxian Academy, such as gold, wood, water, fire, wind, yin, yang, water wood, gold wood, water wind, wind and fire, wind and wood.
Among them, the number of students in the five single-attribute cultivation colleges of metal, wood, water, fire, and wind accounted for more than 90% of the number of new students.
Students from other rare or mixed attribute cultivation academies such as Yin, Yang, Water Wood, Golden Wood, and Water Wind account for less than 10% of the number of new students.
For example, Chen En, he has a wind constitution, so he entered the Wind Department Academy.
Lei Zuo and Lei are all brothers with golden physique, so they all entered the Golden Academy.
Zhang Yu has a fire physique, so he went to the Fire Academy.
Zhou Ming, he is an extremely rare body of all spirits, any attribute of the exercises can be cultivated, any department can join, and in the Daxian Academy, there is no full department, at most one is mixed.
So no matter which department he applied for, it wasn't quite a good fit for him.
Because he was a wood-based physique in his previous life, the "Mixed Yuan Immortal Decision" he practiced by himself had a special bonus effect on the gold system, so after thinking about it, he still reported the gold and wood system.
In addition, every student at Daxian College is required to enroll in an elective course.
Among those elective subjects, there are several major subjects to choose from: Alchemy, Alchemy, Agriculture, Industry, Commerce, and Diplomacy.
Zhou Ming chose the refining subject that he was more interested in as his elective subject.
……
September 1.
Daxian College officially opened.
The Kaneki Department is a small department of Daxian College, with three classes and more than 120 students.
1 class a year, which is Zhou Ming's class.
There are a total of 45 people in the class, the ratio of men to women is about 4:1, the head teacher's surname is Jiang, male, more than 100 years old, is an immortal with a golden physique, he attaches great importance to Zhou Ming, and in the first class meeting, let him speak a few words on the stage in the name of the freshman representative, and talk about his experience in the process of cultivation.
Zhou Ming said a few words casually, but as the top student in the college entrance examination, he must have a lot of dry goods in his stomach.
The classmates who wanted to take out some dry goods from his mouth refused to give up this opportunity and raised a lot of questions.
Zhou Ming talked eloquently, without stage fright, and spoke for most of the class, not only spit out a lot of dry goods, but also humorous and approachable, leaving a good impression on the students.
So in the second class of the class cadre election, he became the class leader with 42 votes.
Although he felt a little troublesome, Zhou Ming still accepted the position, after all, there were only about 40 people in the class, so it was not so difficult to manage, and it would not delay his cultivation.
And these classmates, he will also have a lot of places to rely on in the future...... There is a lot of power in people, and there are more helpers and partners, which can bring a lot of help.
Finally, there is the issue of accommodation.
He could consider living in a four-person dormitory.
You can also rent a room outside the school and rent a room alone.
Zhou Ming chose the latter - to rent a house off campus.
Because there are some things, it is inconvenient for him to be seen, and the life of the eldest young master has been too long, and he is not used to living with others, so he asked Ah Fu to find a three-story villa with good conditions outside the school.
It is less than 2 kilometers away from the school, and the rent is 28,000 Lingyuan per month.
This price made Zhou Ming a little staggered, decades have passed, and the price level of Zhenlin City has been exaggerated like this.
In fact, what is even more exaggerated is the housing price of Zhenlin City, which is the suburbs outside the Sixth and Seventh Ring Rings, and the housing prices are more than 20,000 square meters, and if it is close to the city center, the housing prices are often tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of square meters.
Such housing prices, not to mention that ordinary mortals can't afford it, is the ordinary monk class, and it is a little difficult to buy a commercial house of more than 160 square meters, and it may take out a mortgage for one or two decades.
Of course, no matter how high the housing prices are, no matter how unreasonable they are, Zhou Ming can't control them, and no one can change the laws of economic development and the greedy nature of businessmen.
After moving into a cottage.
Zhou Ming's life is basically three points and one line: class, practice, rest, occasionally organize a few student activities, meet Chen En and Luo Xiaopang, chat, and have a meal...... Life passed plainly and easy-going.
Zhou Ming likes this kind of life very much, this kind of life in an ivory tower.
But he also had some troubles.
Repair is the trouble of falling into a bottleneck.
His cultivation has been stuck at the peak of the late stage of condensation, and it has been nearly two years.
There has been no breakthrough for a long time.
Because of the experience shared with Ye Kong, he didn't think he would encounter a bottleneck—at least not until he broke through to the Divine Stage.
But in fact, he encountered a bottleneck before he broke through to the Gudan period.
Zhou Ming believes that the reason may be that he is too young, or because of the exercises, or it may be related to his special physique.
In short, there are many reasons why the experience sharing function of the system is not effective.
Zhou Ming had to find his own way to make a breakthrough.
So he needs some references.
You need to go to the top floor of the college library, the 50th floor, to find some materials.
However, the 50th floor of the library is never open to ordinary students, and it is an immortal, and if you don't have enough national contribution points, you are not eligible to enter.
But when Zhou Ming came to the door of the 50th floor, in front of the sluggish old man who was guarding the door, he took out a crystal card with special materials and shook it in front of him.
The old man's pupils contracted suddenly, and his eyes shone brightly!
stared at Zhou Ming in front of him, and his chest breathing became heavier.
"You are ......"
The old man guarding the door spat out two words, using honorifics, and his body trembled slightly.
"Shhhh ”
Zhou Ming made a silent gesture and said his purpose.
The old man guarding the door quickly calmed down, bowed slightly, stretched out his hand and said, "Please come in." ”
Zhou Ming walked to the door, inserted the crystal card into the card slot, and after pouring in a stream of aura, the heavy alchemy door slowly opened......
