Chapter 3 Entrance Examinations
The major military academies in Warrior City conduct an admission selection once a year. Those who can enter the academy can not only obtain the cultivation of the empire, but also practice various exercises and magic. At the same time, passing the selection also means an honor. Because, all the warriors of the empire came out of the military academy. Being able to pass the entrance exam is the first step to becoming a warrior.
Li Bai returned home full of joy, and the little white dog in the yard seemed to smell something, and immediately pounced on Li Bai and barked.
Li Bai picked up Xiao Baimao, then rubbed his face, and said to it happily: "Little Baimao, I am going to take the entrance examination of the Rice Military Academy tomorrow, do you want to go with me? I am about to become a brave man." Oh......"
Hearing Li Bai's laughter, the aunt poked her head out of the room, shook her head, and said to herself, "This kid has not been so happy for a long time. Perhaps, this is all the arrangement of fate!"
"Auntie, I have good news for you, I'm going to take the exam at the Colin Imperial Rice Military Academy. ”
Li Bai ran to his aunt and cheered again. However, when she saw her aunt's sullen face, he immediately put away the smile on his face.
"As soon as you came in, you had a little cough, and when you ran two steps, you rubbed your chest with your hands, and you got into a fight with someone today?" asked the aunt suddenly.
"It's still that my aunt has good eyes, a little skin trauma, and it's not in the way!" replied Li Bai.
He didn't want his aunt to worry, so he didn't tell his aunt about meeting that big man today.
"Okay, okay! I won't ask, it's normal for children to grow up and want to go out. Auntie is very open-minded and naturally supports you. I'll stew a chicken for a while, make up for you in the evening, and perform well tomorrow. ”
"Of course, I'm going to be the one who wants to be the warrior of the Colin Empire!" Li Bai said, patting his chest.
"Ouch......"
He suddenly screamed as a result of the hammer hitting the wound, but immediately held back again.
In the afternoon, my aunt personally killed a red-haired rooster that had been raised for several years, and added some great tonic medicine to stew together. At night, Li Bai ate several bowls alone, wiped his greasy mouth, and went to bed directly.
The next morning, the sun had already risen high, and after the aunt had cleared the yard, she went back to sleep.
"I'm old, I'm tired after a little movement, so let's go sleep for a while. ”
A few spiders in the yard usually like to make trouble everywhere, but that day it seemed extraordinarily dedicated, and it was quiet all around. Until the sleepy-eyed Li Bai got up from the bed, and then, a shout rang out.
"Where's the chicken? It's so bright! Why didn't the chicken ...... today?"
Then an ironic thought appeared in his mind: my aunt must have deliberately tricked me into eating the crowing chicken, and then missed the assessment.
"No, I've got to get over there......"
Li Bai quickly dressed up and hurried to the Rice Military Academy. Not far behind him, a small white dog, with its tail between its legs, hurriedly followed.
In this way, one man and one dog, with Li Bai oversleeping, rushed to the Rice Military Academy at full speed.
When he arrived at the academy, Li Bai's whole body was about to be wasted, and his physical energy was so exhausted that he had to stick out his tongue and gasp for breath like the little white hair next to him.
Arriving at the gate of the academy, he was just about to enter when a familiar voice jumped down from a high place and stood in front of Li Bai.
This person, dressed in knight's armor, has sharp eyes, revealing an indescribable majesty. When I looked closely, it was the Tali Weiss I had seen yesterday.
"You're here! you're punctual, and the assessment will begin soon!" she said calmly, as if not at all surprised.
"I ...... I ...... in the morning."
"I'm not interested in knowing!
Her tone was cold, and she directly interrupted Li Bai's explanation.
Li Bai was still out of breath, and immediately rushed into the academy with his legs.
However, when Little White Fur followed behind Li Bai, Tali Weiss's eyes immediately aimed at it, and a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes.
Presenting his special referral token to the examiner, Li Bai successfully obtained the qualification to participate in the assessment.
"Everyone, welcome to apply for the Rice Military Academy, and now I will announce the rules of the examination. The assessment is divided into four rounds, which are carried out within one day, and only through the previous round of assessment can you know what the next round of assessment is.
The first round of assessment, physical fitness assessment. There is a hill behind the college, and all candidates need to get there from here, just due north, in an hour, whatever the way is done. There, you'll have a second round of assessments. As a reminder, don't get lost. As he spoke, he gestured casually with his hand.
"Now, I announce, the first round of assessments, begins!"
As soon as the words fell, the group of people were confused, obviously thinking that all this seemed too abrupt, but some people immediately came to their senses and ran in the direction pointed by the examiner.
Li Bai glanced at the mountain peak of his destination, dragged his heavy steps, and ran away. But after a few steps, he noticed that something was wrong and immediately stopped again.
Just as the candidates in front of them were going forward and following up, there were still some candidates still waiting at the starting point, motionless, without the slightest intention of running over.
"The distance from that mountain here is too far for someone to run over in an hour unless someone can resist the sword or use the magic array to transfer. One candidate said.
"Not necessarily! There may be other shortcuts. ”
As soon as the other candidate finished speaking, a spiritual bead appeared in his hand, and then a palm-sized blue flower bone appeared. Then, a number of silver-toothed demon bees gathered around. Attracted by the flowers, the bees swarmed, and then scattered and flew straight to the mountain where they were going.
"The spirit beads transformed by the fourth-level demonic beast core attract bee tulips. The spirit body of this brother Tai Lingzhu is extraordinary. If you can enter the academy together, you can forget to take care of your brother. ”
"I asked the demon bee to explore the way first, to find out if there was a shortcut. These are just small skills of carving insects, and only when you enter the academy and learn the ability to summon the spirit body, then you can become a warrior. After saying that, the man put on a look of hypocritical modesty, and laughed.
Hearing a few people speak, Li Bai's heart was even more bottomless. In this first round, it is almost impossible to run to the finish line, but unlike other candidates, who rely on the spirit beads, they can still find a way to pass the assessment.
"What to do, what to do?" he asked anxiously.
"The examiner told us to go due north and also told us not to get lost. Is there something that is getting us lost?
Li Bai thought about the examiner's words again, suddenly realized, and ran due north excitedly.
Directly north of the college, there is only one road, straight ahead, connecting the college with the mountains and forests behind.
After a while, after running out of the academy, the road in front of me became narrower and narrower, and the trees on both sides of the road became denser and denser. It wasn't until the road ahead disappeared that Li Bai stopped.
"No way?"
As far as the eye can see, there is only a forest in front of you, and the trees are overgrown with weeds. However, according to Li Bai's observations, some grasses and shrubs have just been stepped on.
He looked around and saw that a large number of people had also stopped, staring at the forest in front of him in a lossless manner.
"You say, there won't be a Warcraft here, right? All the way, I haven't seen a single teacher in the academy, and if you really want to encounter a Warcraft, it will be too dangerous. Someone started muttering.
"I paid to ask candidates from previous years, and they said that the first round of assessment of each year is the most difficult, and it will brush off a large number of people. The other man also began to speak.
Li Bai was also very worried at this time, on the one hand, he knew that even if he entered the forest, he would not be able to reach the destination on time; on the other hand, the first round of assessment was physical fitness, but from the starting point to the place where he was, he did not consume much physical energy at all. This couldn't help but make him guess that this round of assessment might have another purpose.
With a question in his heart, Li Bai stopped in front of the forest, puzzled.
