When the sky was bright, Mu Ziyan got up and washed up to prepare for today's task.

Today is an important day for him. Joining the Tree Refinery Department would save him a lot of money, so he had to go in the best shape he could be. I heard that the people of the tree refiner are very clean, and if something goes wrong because of the image problem, it will be more than worth the loss.

It's all forced by money. There's no way, who let his mother Wang Su'er leave him with nothing when she left! said that he wanted him to earn resources by himself as a test to stay, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with it at the time. But now he finally understands what it means, a full man doesn't know the true meaning of a hungry man's hunger, and now he is poor.

Now, all his possessions can be counted together with one hand: first of all, the Qiankun bag is counted as one, and this thing is quite valuable if it is counted; Then there were the three medicinal herbs that Qin Hao found for him; plus twenty-nine Tianyuan grasses, of which twenty were given by the city lord of the Twin Cities, and nine were treated by Class A this month, which was originally ten, but one was used last night, so only nine remained; Finally, there are a few one-star demon crystals; There is also the most valuable 'grass and wood spirit', which is what he uses to condense the spirit medium, and it must not be sold.

The above is all his current belongings, to be honest, he is really poor, except for the grass and wood spirits, this thing is not even enough to refine the treasure medicine needed to fuse innate spiritual power for the first time. He regrets it now, why didn't he find a way to make more money when he was in Twin Cities, so he wouldn't be poor like this now.

After the four of them gathered, they finally decided to go to the nearest puppet division department first, to see if Ning Cai could pass the recruitment test, if Ning Cai couldn't join, you can also go to other departments to try their luck, in short, for most people, it's better to join a department than not to join, whether you are interested in this line of work or not.

The Puppet Division is the largest student department in the Star Academy, and because it has low requirements for talent, as long as you concentrate on it, anyone can become a puppeteer. Of course, although the threshold for a puppeteer is low, it is not easy to master it. This can be seen from the fact that there are less than a hundred puppet beasts in the entire puppet division who can make puppet beasts above two stars, and this proportion is very low in terms of the total number of students in the Star Academy who are close to two thousand.

The headquarters of the puppet division is a small five-story building, which doesn't look too big to accommodate the few department members. In fact, this five-story building on the surface is only used for trading, and a large number of puppet beasts and crafting materials are sold inside.

And the real core is underground. The underside of the small building has been hollowed out, and after years of hard work by the puppet division, the underground space will not be crowded even if all the students of the entire Star Academy enter. Of course, this is only open to members of the department, and others are not allowed to enter without invitation.

Usually, except for the people in the puppet division, there is basically no one to patronize the puppet division, after all, the puppet beast is very valuable, and there are not many people who buy it. But today is particularly lively, there are crowds of people everywhere in front of the small building, and if you look closely, you can find that these are basically first-year freshmen.

"Yo! Isn't this Mu Ziyan, a Class A genius who came out of our twin cities? What, you're going to join the puppet division? Didn't you say that you have a rare-grade wood-attribute aura? Wouldn't it be a pity if such a talent didn't go to the Tree Refinery Division? As soon as Mu Ziyan and the others arrived, a strange sound of yin and yang came from the crowd.

Mu Ziyan didn't need to guess to know who the owner of this voice was, after all, he had been listening to this tone of speech for more than a year, and it was really hard to forget.

This person is Shan Qingwen. In Shuangcheng, he was not Mu Ziyan's opponent, and he was always compared to him, and this time in the enrollment of the Star Academy, Mu Ziyan entered Class A, but he stayed in Class B. For him, who has two knots and three leaves, which is far higher than Mu Ziyan, but he is compared again, this is even more of a shame.

Mu Ziyan didn't even look at Shan Qingwen, he really didn't bother to pay attention to it, and led the three girls to the test room. However, just because he doesn't care doesn't mean that others don't care. (Since Class A is a top student, the puppet division has a special place to test Class A students, and students from other classes have to wait in line.) ）

"Who are you? Is it not pleasing to the eye of our Class A people? Do you want me to make you pleasing to the eye? Ning Hong said angrily.

Ning Hong's words are really not answered by ordinary people. The strongest people in the entire Star Academy are all in Class A, if anyone dares to say that Class A is not, it is estimated that he will not have to stay in the Star Academy, and maybe he won't even know how he died at that time. You must know that the students in the Star Academy have a large number of casualties every year, after all, what they come into contact with is actual combat, and it is possible for anything to happen in battle.

Ning Hong's words were too sharp, choking Shan Qingwen with a disgraced face, so he could only glare at Mu Ziyan, and then disappeared into the crowd.

After Shan Qingwen went back, he left with four people, and these four were Shan Qingwen's teammates. (Everyone in the Star Courtyard has their own squad, except for Class A, which is a four-person squad, and the other classes are all five-person squads.) Although there are only four people in Class A's team, each of them is stronger than ordinary people, so it is not something that other class five-person teams can handle. ）

"Qingwen, who was that guy just now, why did he provoke you?" On the way back, a girl with fox eyes and a slightly bewitching appearance asked.

This girl's name is Guo Wen, and when she first saw Shan Qingwen, she bluntly said that she liked him, but Shan Qingwen neither agreed nor refused, so the girl was called so intimate.

"It's just a nasty waste, it's just that I relied on good luck and accidentally learned the martial arts to enter Class A......" At the moment, Shan Qingwen introduced Mu Ziyan's talent, and the disparagement in his words was self-evident, and more was unconvinced.

"Can such a guy join Class A?" The four members of Shan Qingwen's team all exclaimed.

"This is only temporary, the promotion exam in a year, let alone Class A, whether he can stay in the Star Academy is a question." Shan Qingwen sneered.

"Qingwen is right." Guo Wen catered to it, and then seemed to think of something good, and said with a smile: "Doesn't this guy have a rare-grade wood attribute aura?" I think he will not miss the opportunity to join the Tree Refinery Department, I have a cousin who is in the Tree Refiner Department, and he happens to be in charge of this recruitment, with Mu Ziyan's low talent, even if he has a rare level of wood attribute aura, it is estimated that he will never become a tree refiner. ”

The four of them glanced at each other and understood the meaning of Guo Wen's words. The meaning is obvious, those who will never become a tree refiner will naturally not be recruited by the tree refining division department, which is equivalent to directly removing Mu Ziyan from the tree refining master department.

Although Guo Wen used the trick of yin damage, none of the other three objected. They are all students in Class B, and they all think that they are no worse than the people in Class A, and now there is such a garbage and somewhat excessive student in Class A, how can they be happy? Naturally, they are all in the mood to watch the excitement.

……

"This is my identity card, I want to join the puppeteer's department." Coming to the assessment office, Ning Cai handed over his identity card.

"You're the only one?" Taking the identity card, the middle-aged man behind the table glanced at the three people behind Ning Cai and asked.

"Well, it's just me." Ning Cai nodded.

"Within ten minutes, take it apart by hand without destroying it." After recording the information on the identity card, the middle-aged man took out a palm-sized puppet puppy and some tools.

"Oh, okay." Ning Cai looked at the delicate puppet puppy, his eyes lit up, he liked it very much, and after taking it, he rubbed left and right.

This puppet puppy belongs to the entry-level thing, except for its appearance, it has no attack power, and for those who know a little bit about puppeteers, it is no problem to take it apart in ten minutes. This also shows that the recruitment conditions of the puppet division department are really low.

However, Mu Ziyan and the three of them pinched a sweat for Ning Cai, it was really this guy who had never touched the puppeteer's things at all, and it was not very difficult to disassemble it.

Click! Click!

Ning Hong didn't even move the tool, just touched it left and right a few times, and it didn't take a minute in total, and the puppet puppy actually fell apart directly and became a part of the ground.

Mu Ziyan looked stupid directly, and thought: How did you do it? Could it be that this puppet puppy is not assembled and will fall apart after a few touches?

"This! ~~" The middle-aged man who had been lazy behind the table stood up in surprise, and his expression seemed to be frightened.

"Am I doing something wrong?" Ning Cai was taken aback by the middle-aged man's actions, and she retreated to Mu Ziyan's side in fear, and asked at a loss.

"Your name is Ning Cai, and you are a freshman in Class A this year?" The middle-aged man, recovering from the shock, confirmed.

"Hmm!" Ning Cai nodded weakly.

"Good! Good! Very good! The middle-aged man said three good words in a row, and then said, "You haven't been in contact with a puppeteer before, have you?" ”

Ning Cai nodded again.

"No wonder, you've been admitted, come with me to report." The middle-aged man left his seat, beckoned to him, and called a young man who looked like a student to come over and take his place.

"Didn't the people who were admitted come to report tomorrow?" The middle-aged man's actions made Mu Ziyan wonder.

"That's ordinary people." The middle-aged man glanced at Mu Ziyan angrily, and then stared at Ning Cai with bright eyes: "This little girl has an amazing talent in puppeteers, of course she has to be treated differently." ”

"Really?" Although the middle-aged man's big bad wolf staring at the little sheep made Ning Cai afraid, his words still made Ning Cai's eyes light up.

"Of course, I have nothing to do with you, why should I lie to you? Let's go! Your test will be a little more complicated, and you will be busy later. The middle-aged man took the lead and walked towards a small door on the side, which was the entrance to the underground world of the puppet division.

"Go ahead, we'll pick you up in the evening." Seeing that Ning Cai didn't move in place and didn't dare to go over, Mu Ziyan gently pushed her and gave her some encouragement, and then she disappeared behind the small door with the middle-aged man.
