The gloom that has disappeared
The next day
In the morning, the sky had just turned out to be yellowish, and Ji Ran had already gone out. Wearing a set of black sportswear, I have to say that the intensity of the assessment of this high school is really much higher than that of ordinary colleges.
After all, the participants are among the best in their age group. As early as yesterday's track assessment, Ji Ran made a discovery. The number of people who participated in the assessment was 2,000, and in the end there were only 200 places, and with this high-precision elimination method, the strength of the remaining people should not be underestimated.
Especially in the top ten, in the face of that kind of sudden organs, they can calmly face it, and it is obviously well-trained. However, it is important to know that the people who can participate in this kind of high-cost training are either big families or merchant groups.
"Sure enough, I came a little early" Ji Ran arrived at the venue early, holding a cup of freshly heated coffee in his hand.
However, although the High School is a special education college, I didn't expect that the greenery and architectural style are full of romance.
At the entrance of the school, there is a building of the vermilion lacquer palace gate, which is not more than seven or eight meters high, the style is simple, solemn and elegant, and then there are two stone lions sitting on the side, which looks like a serious style.
Walking into the college, the buildings are all classical buildings, exuding a strong historical heritage, and the long-standing and high-quality ancient sandalwood decorations permeate the entire intersection.
The main road is spacious, about 10 meters wide, and the cherry blossom trees in the center are lined up, extending from the entrance to the student management center in the center. It was a tall building, divided into two separate buildings, connected by a bridge in the middle, with the roofs hooked and angled, and the whole was painted red vermilion, and the bricks and tiles were black and neatly arranged.
The building is mainly used for the faculty of the college, and the only thing that is the top floor is used to store materials.
Ji Ran listened carefully to the uncle at the door and said in detail.
Scanning the surroundings, what Ji Ran didn't expect the most was that the circle on the edge of the main building was surrounded by a river, and the river didn't know where it flowed into the academy, but it couldn't be seen.
Like a blue snake, it spreads out, coils around the main building and flows out to the other side.
"That's the most famous design of the academy – the Funai River. As for where his source is and where it is going, I don't know, but I feel that this water has brought vitality to this academy, as if all the creatures in this academy depend on the vitality brought by this water. ”
In this season, the cherry blossoms are blooming, and the whole college is like a paradise, with a large piece of pink, plus the height of the growth, the branches on both sides of the road grow very well, like a couple holding each other's hands, covering the sky and the sun, a romantic scene, like a pink sky.
"Uncle, how many years have you been here. Ji Ran looked at the expression of nostalgia and enjoyment on his face when the uncle explained to him, and couldn't help but ask.
The uncle waved his hand, sat down on his pony, and poured tea into the cup on the coffee table next to him. "A few years later, I heard someone tell me. This high school does not have a long history. Come and have a cup of tea. The uncle handed Ji Ran a cup of tea, and poured another cup himself.
"Kid, it's not easy to come to this high academy. Your ability must be excellent...."The uncle took a sip of tea, he should have drunk the fragrance of tea, and his face was beautiful, so he almost hummed a tune.
When Ji Ran heard this, he was embarrassed. Scratching his head, "You really overestimate me, I'm actually the worst student in this class, it can be said that I came in by luck, because I haven't had any abilities since I was a child." ”
"Oh?" the uncle looked like he was not weird, and he whispered in confusion. "Isn't it more difficult to enter without an ability, I think you are better than those others, you said that you can enter this high academy without an ability, if you have an ability, it will be amazing!" the uncle said and laughed a few times.
"But it just can't be a miracle. Ji Ran lowered his head a little disappointed and muttered softly. "I was born in a family of martial artists, I'm not afraid of your jokes, my ancestors have no abilities"
"When you say that, I know who your child is, although I have not been here for a long time, but there should be no one in this Jacques City, I know very well, after all, I have lived here all my life. The uncle put down the mouth pot, "If I'm not mistaken, you are a child of the Ji family, the Ji family has no abilities, but the martial arts are very domineering, and there are few abilities that few people can take the moves." ”
Ji Ran smiled. "You know my grandfather, can you tell me about him?"
"Your father's name is Ji Wei, and your grandfather's name is Ji Ketian. I shouldn't be wrong, I used to always mistake the two of them, it's too similar. The uncle said with a haha, his eyes full of memories.
"That's right, Ji Ketian is my grandfather, tell me about him, my grandfather has been dead for several years since I was born. It's just that I've always heard that my grandfather is a very powerful person, and I asked my father, but he wouldn't tell me!"
"Hehe, it's really too early for your grandfather to tell you about it, kid, some things don't mean that I told you, it's good that you know. There are some things that you can't listen to when you don't have the time, because things have cause and effect, one thing will definitely involve another, even dozens, hundreds, you are still young, there is no need to know this, when you arrive, someone will naturally come to the door!" the uncle said and smiled, the memories in his eyes suddenly dissipated, and some were hesitant and helpless.
"My father also told me the same thing at the time, of course I know, but..."Ji Ran was about to cry when he thought that his family had left him, "but...."Tears had already run out of his eyes.
The uncle stood up and put on a silver pendant for Ji Ran, "Ji Ran, I am an old acquaintance with your grandfather, this pendant was once given to me by him, you take it, your family's things will be guarded by your own family!"
Hanging from the pendant are three tiny blades with a silvery-gray appearance. It should be wiped from time to time, and the pendant is still bright.
The moment the uncle hung the pendant on Ji Ran, he looked into the distance and froze, as if he had seen something shocking, his eyes were motionless, unconsciously, his eyes were also red, and he seemed to recall a certain picture.
"Keep it up. This is my baby, you have to take good care of me, and I'll come back to you. ”
"Brother, you don't have to go at all, why do you have to wade into this troubled water, you don't know what those councilors are thinking about! They just want your life, there must be a ghost in our team!"
"It's just that you kid has a lot of business, it's fine. ”
....
"Due to the criminal Ji Ketian's plot to trigger the war, resulting in many government officials and innocent people sacrificed their lives, the crime is extremely heinous, after many decisions such as the high-level and the mayor's meeting, in the first district, that is, at this time, the execution of Ji Ketian officially began ———— the death penalty!"
The people below were in a stir, their faces were full of expressions of dissatisfaction, and Hurricane Tianshou looked at Ji Ketian, who was kneeling on the ground and covered in injuries, but his face was still resolute, his pupils instantly dilated, "Big brother, don't!" His eyes met Ji Ketian, and the other party smiled at him very calmly, and Hurricane Tianshou already knew what he meant.
"Hang!"
The two executioners on the side raised the spears in their hands and stabbed the spears through Ji Ketian's body from both sides, and the blood dripped down the execution table. There was an instant silence below, and the hurricane castle guard couldn't walk for a moment when he saw this scene, and the people behind him kept dragging him.....
....
It was much brighter.
The streets outside also began to be noisy, with shouting, horns, and the sound of running water at the washstands.
At this point, the whole city woke up.
People arrived one after another, and Ji Ran greeted them.
Slowly, the two hundred people arrived, and Tsushima also walked over from the building.
Following the students to explain some words, he walked alone to the uncle at the door of the communication room, whispered a few words beside him, no one heard clearly, he was very tall, but when he walked to the side of the uncle, he deliberately lowered his body a little, and he spoke with his head slightly lowered.
Ji Ran couldn't help but start speculating when he saw this scene. "What the hell is the master of this communication room? From the conversation just now, Ji Ran tested the uncle, but he didn't feel any "qi" existing. This is generally impossible, because after the average person dies, there will be a slight amount of qi that will not dissipate until a week later.
However, this uncle is obviously so tough, and he doesn't have a trace of "qi". It's almost doubtful about his identity.
......
Ji Ran and his party were taken to a playground with a 400-meter track.
Like a regular academy, the center is a football field. Today, however, the football frames on the green lawn were dismantled and placed in the corners.
In the center of the pitch is a row of instruments. There was also a female teacher with a graceful figure standing on the side.
Because the appearance of the female teacher is so rippling, that not many people are observing the instrument at all, and even the assessment items are left behind.
The female teacher has a charming and moving demeanor, her long purple hair is tied up in a ponytail, and a pair of violet eyes seem to see through people's hearts. The most eye-catching thing is her hot posture, which is convex and backward. Wearing a black slim suit, he tugs at the heartstrings of boys all the time.
Ji Ran didn't care much about this, he walked to the edge of Tsushima alone, looking at the group of people who were so fascinated that he couldn't help but shake his head helplessly. "Teacher, what are the items assessed today?"
Tsushima seemed a little surprised, "Uh.... Let's start with the assessment. Your last assessment was three years ago.
Because I probably only know about the abilities for you, but I don't know the rank of your abilities. So, first take the assessment, and then I will give you a rating, and then judge your placement based on the results of this assessment and the corresponding results of yesterday's assessment. ”
Ji Ran listened carefully and nodded. "I want to ask what the situation is. Something isn't quite normal..."
Tsushima smiled and pulled out a clipboard from behind him, on which were several sheets of white paper with names on them. "This is the first assessment, Qin Lan, okay!"
"Hehe, I'm curious!"
"That's Qin Lan's ability, you'll know sooner or later. ”
Ji Ran looked around, in addition to himself and the girls, there were also a few boys who were no longer in the crowd, and they were all sitting on the side.
Tsushima picked up the pen and pushed it quickly on the paper.
"Okay, I'll report the names one by one, and you will go to the instrument in order to evaluate it. ”
At this time, it was already past nine o'clock in the morning...
Ji Ran was still speculating about the uncle, and he was holding the pendant in his hand. "Why is Tsushima-sensei also humble and respectful to him? Could it be that this uncle is actually a master outside the world.... However, if you are a master of the world, why do you need to find a job in the communication room of the academy? “
"Ji Ran!"
"Ji Ran!"
I only felt a few taps on my shoulder, and then I withdrew from deep thought. "Here!"
Ji Ran walked to the side of the instrument without the slightest concern, and the female teacher named Qin Lan came over to help him move his position and buckle the mechanism.
The machine was about three meters tall and was a cylindrical container. Ji Ran stood inside, and the outer layer of glass cover was slowly lowered. Immediately, pure white gas began to emanate from the container. The gas will slowly cover the person, and then accumulate thicker and thicker until the entire container is filled, and the gas will be like a worm burrowing into the body from the surface of the skin.
Ji Ran stayed in the container and only felt that he was hot, and lasers swept from top to bottom from his body. After about a minute, the glass cover opened again, and gas poured out.
However, Ji Ran still had some worries, because he had finally arrived in a new environment, and he didn't want to always be ridiculed for his lack of abilities like he did when he was a child in the academy.
I've always felt inferior because I don't have any special abilities. However, he also accepted this fact early on, he just wanted to get along with the people around him on an equal footing.
The machine is really a machine, cold, without a trace of emotion, although the result has long been known, but the three words that came out are still a little stinging Ji Ran's heart. "No powers!"
The people around quieted down, and Ji Ran looked at them, feeling ashamed in his heart, and the more he thought about himself, the more inferior he became. I thought that I would be ridiculed and questioned a lot as before, but these students of this high academy seem to be different, and they actually applauded....
Ji Ran couldn't believe his eyes and ears. "Liar, I obviously don't have any abilities, why do they applaud, they must be mocking me in disguise!"
This idea was not until someone in the audience shouted, "Well done!
Everyone applauded one after another to show respect to Ji Ran and admire him.
Finally, the shadow that had been left in Ji Ran's heart slowly faded, and the sun spilled into his heart little by little, since the death of his parents, he had never felt such a good environment, and he had been withdrawn, I don't know why he suddenly became open-minded.
Qin Lan walked to Tsushima's side and said a few words softly.
"Really?" exclaimed Tsushima.
"It's true. 'Qi' is completely Zhenggang attribute!"
There are generally many types of this qi, the most popular of which is "middle qi", followed by "yuan qi", and then "heart qi". The hierarchy is also arranged from lowest to highest in this way, but there are two opposing "qi" in addition to these three
One is "refining qi" and the other is "gang qi". The level and concentration of these two gases are completely much higher than the first three. But it's also relatively rare.
"It seems that he is another talented student after Zhou Luonan's kid 'refining qi'."
"It seems that there is a good chance that our High School Academy will produce a new genius!" Tsushima muttered.
The process of assessment is very fast, one after another, and everyone quickly completes the first test. The next one is a test of physical function, which is in line with Ji Ran's ability, although the ability is not good, but compared to martial arts, he has not met an opponent so far, compared to strength, it is naturally needless to say, without ability training, he has to spend time on his body every day, so his body function is not comparable to ordinary people.
First it tests speed, then stamina, and finally strength. Ji Ran passed the test with a crushing score, but in the ability test, which accounted for 70% of the total score, Ji Ran was out of line.
Soon, it was only about two hours, and all the tests were completed, and the results of the assessment were soon out.
In first place is a boy named "Rukawa Tai", followed by Yuan Zihan, Yuan Tan Xi, Ji Ran, Zhemu, and Jia Yi.....
Ji Ran was also a little surprised by his ranking, although his physical function was very good, but the ability that accounted for the majority was terrible.
But just go with the flow, it's not a bad thing to go to the elite class.
......
On the way home, I received a text message from Tsushima.
It is said that it is the college's welcome party for new students, tomorrow night at 8 o'clock on the West Campus. I also specially instructed that you must dress up in formal clothes.
"It's over. I don't think I have a formal suit yet!
