He Tianzong wiped the sweat from his forehead, turned back to Ah Fu, who was carrying a large bag and a small bag, and shouted: "Hurry up, fat Ah Fu, it's almost there!" ”。

Ah Fu, who was sweating profusely behind, raised his fat face and said, "Young master...... Master, take a break, I'm ...... I can't crawl anymore! ”。 After saying that, he sat on the ground and gasped for breath.

He Tianzhong was helpless, so he had to turn back and sit down on a boulder next to Fat Ah Fu.

Ah Fu wiped the sweat on his face with his long sleeves, frowned, and said: "Young master, I still have a lot of thoughts in my heart until now, we sneaked out like this, and when I go back, the master may not do anything to you, after all, you are his own flesh and blood, but when he is angry, he will definitely order someone to break my legs!" ”。

He Tianzong waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, when I practice martial arts, go back and defeat Miss Rushuang and marry her again, and our husband and wife will work together to keep you safe." ”

Fat Ah Fu turned his worries into joy, stretched out his fat hand and grabbed He Tianzong's sleeve and said, "Young master, a word is a certainty!" You must take care of me."

He Tian glanced back at the top of the mountain absentmindedly, and said to himself: "On this day, the Jianghu Tai Academy on Mu Mountain is famous, and it is said to be the first place in Daqi that specializes in cultivating martial arts talents. It's almost over, let's go. ”

With that, he patted his buttocks, got up and walked up. Fat Afu muttered a few sentences dissatisfiedly, and stood up very reluctantly, picked up the big bags on the ground again, and chased after them.

Turning a mountain beam, the front suddenly opened up, and it turned into a flat river. A carved beams and painted building, the majestic gate appeared not far away, and the people in front of the door came and went, and it was very lively.

Walking to the front, looking up, there is a gilded plaque hanging on the wide porch, with five glittering big characters on it: "Jianghu Tai Academy", and the person who signed it turned out to be the Dazai of the current dynasty, and the red man Dong Linsong in front of the saint. In front of the door, two large mahogany tables were placed side by side, and several instructors looked like people in green clothes were shuttling back and forth.

He Tianzong excitedly raised his head and was about to rush in, but was stopped by a bearded Tsing Yi instructor reaching out.

"Hey, what are you doing? Do you understand the rules? ”。

He Tianzong hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Xiaosheng is here to learn art!" ”。

The bearded man pursed his lips and said in a loud voice: "Ignorant child, how can anyone enter this Jianghu Tai Academy if they want to?" First go to the check-in office to register, pay the entry silver taels, show the "note", and pass the screening to become a member of Jianghu Tai Academy. ”

He Tianzong was puzzled and saluted again: "What is a note?" ”。

The bearded instructor rolled his eyes helplessly, cast a gaze like an idiot at He Tianzong, and patiently explained: "The note is a letter of recommendation from a high-ranking official and nobleman in the court. ”

After He Tianzong thanked him, he followed the flow of people to the two large mahogany tables.

He was received by a Tsing Yi instructor with a sharp beak and a slender face, and this time the instructor was very polite and asked with a smile: "Do you have a high-ranking official's note?" ”。

He Tianzhong shook his head in embarrassment and said, "I can't hide it, this time I sneaked out behind my father's back, and I want to learn some skills and then go back." ”

The sharp-beaked monkey cheeks continued to ask with a smile on his face, "How many silver taels are you going to pay as tuition?" The more you pay, the easier it is to go to the hospital, and you can pass without even taking a test. It is divided into three grades: one hundred taels, five hundred taels, and one thousand taels. ”

He Tianzong was stunned for a moment, and shyly hugged his fists and said: "Xiaosheng went out in a hurry this time, he didn't bring too many silver taels, let's pay a hundred taels first." ”

The sharp-beaked monkey's cheeks sank, and he threw a small wooden card to He Tianzong angrily and said: "You first pay the inspection fee of ten taels of silver, and if you pass, you will pay one hundred and eighty taels of tuition and miscellaneous fees together with your servants, and if you can't pass the test, you can go back wherever you come from!" ”。

He Tianzong held up the small wooden sign in his hand, and walked into the spacious gate of the academy with the flow of people and came to an open space.

A man in Tsing Yi with a whip in his hand shouted: "The students who have paid the testing fee are here." ”

He Tianzong looked up and saw that between the two big trees, there were stone tiles and slabs of different thicknesses hanging. The instructor said majestically: "Jianghu Tai Academy is the cradle designated by the imperial court to cultivate martial arts talents for Daqi, therefore, having good physical fitness is a prerequisite, and the requirements for passing the test are: smash three stone tiles and stone slabs of different thicknesses with your head in a row, and those who complete it can stay in school, and if you do not meet the standard, please go out and turn left and return the same way." Students who feel that they are not sure of winning and are determined to study can pay 80 taels of silver, be exempted from the test, and enter the school directly. ”

After a commotion, a strong young man with broad shoulders and a thick back came out of the crowd, and he rubbed his hands and said, "I'll try!" ”。

In the shouts and cheers of everyone, the strong guy smashed two hanging stone tiles with "bang" and "bang" respectively, stopped for a while, and then lowered his hair and rushed towards a thick stone slab. With a "tom", his head hit the heavy stone slab, the slate did not even crack, but his whole person was rebounded and took a few steps backwards, and he fell to the ground with a "poof" and passed out.

There was a cry of regret from the crowd of onlookers. The instructor in Tsing Yi waved his hand disdainfully and said, "Lift him up and throw him out of the door, you still want to practice martial arts with this body?" ”。 He turned to the crowd again, "Who wants to come up and try it?" ”。

There was another commotion in the crowd, and some people hesitated out of the crowd and walked towards the long table at the gate, intending to spend some silver taels to get the deal done.

He Tian tightened his belt, pushed aside the crowd and walked out, clasped his fists at the instructor in Tsing Yi and said, "I'll try." He was confident that he had some martial arts foundation, and besides, he didn't have much silver taels to escape this time, so he could only break through.

"Bang" and "Bang" After smashing two stone tiles in a row, He Tianzong felt that his brain was wooden, but it didn't hurt much. He took a deep breath and said silently in his heart: Miss Rushuang, I'm here! Rushed to a thick stone slab hanging with force, with a loud "bang", a wisp of blood slid down the corner of his forehead, and the thick stone slab shook a few times, and finally broke in half and fell to the ground.

He Tianzong, who was carrying the swollen bag on his head, happily returned to the gate, paid the silver taels, and walked into the brilliant gate of the "Jianghu Tai Academy" with his chest held high, and since then he has been a member of it gloriously.

Early the next morning, He Tianzong and other freshmen were gathered in a dusty and empty square in the hospital, where colorful flags fluttered, gongs and drums were noisy, and a grand welcome ceremony was held for the freshmen.

A short and fat man with two mustaches stepped onto the rostrum with a big belly, and he introduced the martial arts masters sitting on the rostrum one by one in a loud voice.

"This is the head of the stele and the broken stone palm, Instructor Niu, his stele-breaking stone palm is famous for shaking the martial arts, and the boulder can be smashed in the air with a zhang away, which is really a miracle!"

The tall bull instructor got up and clenched his fists at the crowd, looked around for a week, and then sat down silently.

"This is Instructor Yang, the master of the Destroying Flowers and Withered Leaves, he can hurt people invisibly by picking flowers and leaves, he is really a martial arts person!"

As he spoke, a tall, thin man in a Taoist uniform with a few sparse beards under his chin stood up, waved around him, and sat down again in silence.

Then he introduced Instructor Zhu, the chief disciple of the "Mixed Yuan King Kong Leg", the instructor of the head of the "Mandarin Duck Knife", and the leader of the "Blowing and Singing Gang", Instructor Ma, and so on. Finally, Humpty Dumpty, whose face was dark, solemnly introduced himself: Hu Liqun, the dean of Jianghu Tai Academy, this person is the head of the instructors, referred to as the head of the professor.

"Young men, you are the martial arts embryos that you are honored to leave after layers of strict screening, you are the future of Daqi, and you are the pillars of Daqi in the near future! We welcome more people with lofty ideals to come here, therefore, the college has specially formulated a reward system: if you can introduce ten relatives and friends to come to study art, the tuition fee will be halved; 100 people can be introduced, and there is a reward for individual tuition. Enthusiastic young men, let us shout out the slogan of our Jianghu Tai Academy together: faster, stronger, more fierce; Adult, talent, essence! ”。

"Faster, stronger, fiercer; Adult, talent, essence! In the chaotic and loud shouts of the students, the welcome celebration came to an end.

He Tianzong and the others were regrouped by the Tsing Yi instructors, and He Tianzong and dozens of others were brought into an empty lecture hall by a burly and bearded Tsing Yi instructor. There were no tables, chairs and benches here, so everyone had to sit on the floor.

The bearded instructor in Tsing Yi waited for everyone to sit down before he said impassionedly: "Young talents, the pillars of the future. You come from all over the world and have come here for a common purpose! The country is in trouble and the country is prosperous, and now there are many bandits in my Daqi, and the people of Li cannot live and work in peace and contentment, what should I do? Only when we practice a solid martial arts and have a strong physique can we serve the country, go into battle to kill the enemy, make meritorious contributions, and glorify our ancestors! And here, it is the cradle of a generation of heroes and the training base of General Yum!

He took a breath, his eyes glancing at everyone, and then said: "I don't care if you have a martial arts foundation or not, you have to work steadily and start from scratch here!" Today is the time for everyone to open their hearts and shout out your heart's wishes! Each of you must leave your shyness, tear your face, and shout out your dreams in your heart! Who comes first? ”。

A rather incendiary remark, the hearts of the people who listened to it were surging and their blood boiling.

A well-proportioned student wearing a scarf stood up excitedly and asked, "Instructor, can you say anything in your heart?" ”。

The instructor in Tsing Yi nodded without hesitation: "Of course, say the truest dream in your heart, no!" It's a shout out for the whole world to hear! ”。

The student's face turned red, and he said loudly: "I want to learn peerless martial arts, dominate the martial arts, become the leader of the martial arts alliance, and beat whoever I want!" ”。

The bearded instructor high-fived and praised: "Good! Be ambitious! As the saying goes: An apprentice who doesn't want to put down a master is not a good apprentice, and a martial arts practitioner who doesn't want to be the master of the martial arts alliance is a walking corpse! ”。

A hunched and very thin student jumped up excitedly, shook it twice, coughed again and again, and said with a flushed face: "I want to be a generation of heroes, walk the rivers and lakes, meet countless encounters, and hug the beauty!" ”。

The bearded instructor stepped forward excitedly, slapped him twice on the emaciated shoulder, and exclaimed, "Good idea!" Not only chivalrous and righteous, but also self-pleasing, if you have a dream, you must shout out, and if you have a dream, you must fight for it! ”。

Before the words fell, the student suddenly breathed rapidly, his face turned pale, and he fell to the ground with a "plop", rolled his eyes, and fainted.

The bearded instructor was stunned for a moment, raised his palm and looked at it, obviously surprised at how his palm power could be so domineering, and it didn't make much effort.
