Chapter 60: Winter Vacation
Exams are never difficult for top students. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Chu Yunxiu chose eight courses, five of which were theoretical, and the remaining three were practical courses, one was alchemy, one was swordsmanship, and the remaining one was a formation course. She originally wanted to choose the talisman class, but after weighing her ability and time, Chu Yunxiu had to give up for the time being, and decided to wait for a few years to learn those basic theoretical knowledge before taking time to learn to draw talismans.
Chu Yunxiu's courses were not difficult, and the exam did not take too much time, except for the alchemy class, Chu Yunxiu, who did not have a fire spirit root, which was more difficult to control the fire, and more points were deducted, and she got close to full marks in the rest of the classes. Of course, Chu Yunxiu's classmates are not all vegetarians, as far as Chu Yunxiu knows, Ding Ruolan's grades are close to full scores, and Qin Shangyong's grades are the same, Chu Yunxiu really has no advantage over them.
After the exam, Chu Yunxiu didn't bother with the results, returned to Huaiyuan to pack up his things, and happily prepared to go home for the New Year and fight again next year.
"Sister Xiaohuai, otherwise you can go home with me, it's too lonely for you to be here alone during the holidays. While packing up her things, Chu Yunxiu invited Xiaohuai to go back with her for the New Year, at this time, Chu Yunxiu's bright eyes were full of excitement, and she was obviously looking forward to going home for the New Year.
"It's not deserted, maybe the master will come back for the New Year," Xiaohuai smiled, his ordinary face was full of gentleness, "If I leave, there will be no one to serve the master." "In fact, only low-level cultivators like Chu Yunxiu attach more importance to the New Year, and their lives are basically in line with the life of ordinary people, and when they cultivate to the Yuan Infant Stage of the Dan Formation Period, sometimes it takes several years or even more than ten years to retreat, so naturally they will not pay attention to things like the New Year's Festival. Xiaohuai has lived for hundreds of years, and his body is not human, so he doesn't pay much attention to things like the New Year's Festival, so even if he stays alone in Huaiyuan, he won't feel lonely.
Chu Yunxiu knew that Yi Xi would always be the first in Xiaohuai's heart, and he didn't persuade her much, but just smiled and promised her that he would bring her special products when he came back.
Xiao Huai stuffed Chu Yunxiu with a few jars of spirit wine as a New Year's gift, and said a little slowly: "It doesn't matter if it's a specialty or not, Yunxiu, don't forget to cultivate during the winter vacation, after you come back, you have to prepare for the registration of the academy league, and then the strong players will be like clouds, and the competitive pressure may be very great." ”
Hearing Xiaohuai's advice, Chu Yunxiu nodded quickly and said with a smile: "Sister Xiaohuai, don't worry, I won't forget to cultivate, and when the time comes, I will definitely get a good result in the academy league, and I won't lose the teacher's face!"
"I remember your promise. Xiao Huai couldn't help laughing, "When the academy league is full of strong players, you don't want to be hit." ”
The Academy League is held every three years, and it is an international competition for monk academies around the world, Qingqiu Academy is a first-class monk college in China, but from a global point of view, the history of Qingqiu Academy is really pitifully short, less than three hundred years, compared to the several major priest academies with a history of thousands of years in Ephena, and even the wizard academies with a history of thousands of years in Europe can't compare, and the strength is naturally not strong enough for the old academies.
Speaking of which, Huaguo is still affected by the clan system in this regard, hundreds of years ago, the clan concept of the monk circle in Huaguo prevailed, which monk will go to which school, and each family attaches great importance to the inheritance of the method, many things are not passed on secrets, and outsiders are not allowed to peep at all, let alone take out the cultivation methods of each family to run a unified school for exchange.
Even in recent years, the family concept of the monk circle in Huaguo is still very strong, and the children with average talent in the family may consider coming to the monk academy to study, learn more things, and learn from others, but those children with the most talent will definitely not be sent out, they are generally taught by the elders or elders who are the highest cultivators in the family, and formulate a personal training plan for them, rather than being sent to the Xiuzhen Academy for stocking.
It is precisely this concept that leads to the fact that the monks of the Huaguo Academy are generally not very talented, and most of the things they learn are broad and miscellaneous, rather than as specialized and refined as the monks trained by the family. The monks who came out of the family, sword cultivation only learned swords, Dan cultivation only learned Dan, as for other things, the strength of the family is profound, so they will naturally prepare everything they need for them, without them having to worry about it, unlike an academic monk like Chu Yunxiu, who has to work his own, and he has to learn alchemy and sword practice and focus on the mental method he has learned.
Therefore, in most cases, among the low-level monks, in a certain field, it is generally the monks of the family faction who abandon the monks of the academy by a large margin, and this effect of being superior and inferior makes many monks of the family faction look down on the monks of the academy and are unwilling to come to the academy to study, and gradually form a dead circle.
In fact, it is not necessarily that the monks of the academic school will be inferior to the monks of the family school, at least the cultivation to the middle and high level, the academic monks have found their own way, and after determining the direction of their cultivation, they often progress faster than the family school, and their achievements are also higher. The dispute between the academic school and the family faction, in the final analysis, is just different cultivation methods, and after all, they will end up in the same place, and it is really hard to say which is better or worse.
Because there are many monks from the family faction who choose to practice at home, Huaguo's Xiuzhen Academy can't receive too many good seedlings, and its strength is naturally slightly inferior, and it can't please in the academy league, even if it is Qingqiu Academy, although it is not at the bottom, but the results of previous years have been hovering in the middle and lower reaches, which is also the reason why the school emphasizes that the academy league has always been - the results of Qingqiu Academy are not good enough, too slap in the face.
As a member of Qingqiu Academy, Chu Yunxiu was instilled with the concept of studying hard, participating in the academy league, and then winning glory for the school on weekdays. Even because Chu Yunxiu is going to participate in the academy league next year, her cultivation can rank second in the same level, and she will definitely participate in the academy league, many teachers secretly open a small stove for her, hoping that her cultivation can improve quickly and lead their students to achieve good results.
The academy league is important, but no matter what, the year still has to pass. Stuffing the packed things into the storage bracelet, Chu Yunxiu took advantage of the holiday to go to Feibai to buy a batch of spirit grass seeds, she harvested a batch of extremely cold ice during her training, although the extremely cold ice is not a high-end product, the price is average, but the quantity is sold in large quantities, Chu Yunxiu still got a lot of money.
In addition, the subsidies from Qingqiu Academy and the compensation from the Nehemaya family are also some, plus the spirit wine that Chu Yunxiu brews daily and the spirit grass he grows, there is some profit after selling it. In terms of income in all aspects, even if Chu Yunxiu is not very rich, he still has much more money on hand than most of his classmates, and he usually buys things such as spirit seeds, talismans, and spiritual weapons, and all kinds of equipment are relatively complete.
After saying goodbye to Xiaohuai and Feibai, Chu Yunxiu took Ya Zejun to Wuzhou by train first, and then bought a plane ticket in Wuzhou and flew home. Kuang Qing is about to graduate this year, and she doesn't have much time in school, so Chu Yunxiu usually rarely sees her, let alone trains with her. Kuang Qing is not here, Chu Yunxiu has an extra Ya Zejun by his side, and he doesn't feel bored on the journey.
Chu Yunxiu carried a backpack with some miscellaneous gadgets such as documents, change, snacks, etc., and took Ya Zejun on the plane home.
"Ya Zejun, are we really going to find Mu Xinhuo during the winter vacation?" While waiting for the plane, Chu Yunxiu looked at Ya Zejun on the side, with some hesitation on his face.
