In the summer, the wildflowers of Oolong are everywhere.
With the arrival of the summer solstice, everyone is waiting for the annual school palace summer list.
Eighty-one families, three hundred family palaces, four lists will be released every year, among them, the summer list is the graduation list, and all the graduates of the family school palace will appear in this list.
Looking at the summer list of the school palace, you can see which school palace, who graduated, and what their graduation results are.
What's more, how many people have graduated on the summer list of the general school palace, and how many school nameplates will be issued on the autumn list, so you can see from the summer list how many places are vacated in each family school palace this year.
Tang was sitting at the counter of the Treasure Pavilion, sipping weak tea, looking at the busy crowd on the street.
"This year's summer list is a little late." Ban Yilou sat behind the counter and said.
"Will it be earlier than this in previous years?" Tang Zheng asked.
"Haven't you ever seen the release list?" Ban Yilou looked at Tang Zheng strangely.
"Nope." Tang Zheng has only just arrived in Oolong Town this year, where can he go to see the list?
"Alas," Ban Yilou shook his head, he was also used to Tang Zheng's strangeness, and said instead, "I don't know how many families have come to Oolong Town to release this year?" β
Although according to the rules, the four lists a year must be placed in every family and every town-level administrative area in the Xingyao Continent. However, in places like Oolong Town, many families have not strictly adhered to it.
The summer solstice is approaching.
But there are only a dozen families in Wulong Town who have put Xia Bang in total.
According to Ban Yilou, some families who are far away from Oolong Town. It's been decades since anyone was sent to let go of the list.
"Normal, I'm afraid there is no one in Oolong Town who will go to the Academy Palace so far away." Tang Zheng played with an identity plate in his hand and said with a smile.
"You can be careful to put it away, I have a lot of effort to put this identity plate in your hand." Ban Yilou looked at the nameplate in his hand. It's not angry.
Tang Zheng came to the "first and a half floors" of the Treasure Pavilion to find him and solve the problem of the identity nameplate, as if it was still yesterday.
Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, it was time to separate.
"You're also going to take the exam for the Yisu Academy?" Ban Yilou asked Tang Zheng.
"It's not decided yet." Tang Zheng stretched out two fingers and twisted out a letter. "Miss Luoluo asked me to come and talk."
"It's also ......," Ban Yilou immediately smiled, "Ouyang Luoluo still wants you to go to the palace to teach the foundation casting." Just, what about yourself? If you become an instructor, you can't go up to the Star Tower......"
"That's why I'm thinking about it." Tang Zheng had been receiving an invitation from Emerald Stone City for several days.
Ouyang Luoluo of course hoped that he would be able to accept the employment of Yisu Academy as an instructor.
However, Tang Zheng did not go to college in his previous life. It's always a pity.
He still wants to go to college, even if it's just to sit in the classroom and listen to the lectures, and look at the girls in school uniforms. It's also a wish of his.
"Is it important to ask the Star Tower?" Tang Zheng also said it when he heard Jiang Buyan, heard Tang Boyuan also said it, and heard Tang Xiaotang also said it, but he never had a chance to ask.
"It's too important for a two-star martial artist." Ban Yilou replied to him very sternly, "So." You have to think about it. β
"What's the matter?"
"Asking the stars, that is, asking the heart - you will be on the road to star power in the future. How to go, how to go. Where are your strengths and weaknesses, you can get the answer on the Star Tower. β
"Uh, so mysterious?" Tang Zhengdao.
"I haven't climbed it myself, of course, I can only say it a little mysteriously, pretending to climb it often." Ban Yilou shrugged and replied.
"......" Tang Zheng was speechless, "This is okay!" β
"In short, for the sake of you to break through the three stars smoothly, and for the sake of a clearer path in the future, you won't be like those of us who have never climbed the Star Tower...... I'm building yΓ¬, you still consider entering the Yisu School Palace as a student. β
Tang Zheng nodded.
Ban Yilou has known him for so many months, although he is not so serious when he is eighty percent, Tang Zheng knows when he is serious.
Ban Yilou felt that there were things that needed to be considered strictly, and he would definitely not take it lightly!
"Thanks, old man." Tang Zheng looked at the sun and stood up, "I will think about it seriously and then reply to Miss Luoluo." β
"When you're on spring break, remember to come back to see my old man." Ban Yilou took out the casting notebook from under the counter, "If you have any trouble in Feishi City, go find Lao Lu." Although you studied under Lu Huang, Lu Yilou is also one of your mentors......"
"Rui Lou? Your names are really interesting. Tang Zheng immediately realized, "I'm afraid, he is not only my master, the sword and dagger I used at the beginning were also forged by him." β
As he spoke, Tang Zheng took out his sword dagger and shook it in front of Ban Yilou - of course, it was already a transformation of Luo Fei's improved Yuexing dagger.
This sword dagger, Ban Yilou hasn't helped Lu Yilou sell it for many years, but he didn't expect Tang Zheng to be ready to use it forever.
"Is the name interesting?" Ban Yilou shook his head with a wry smile, "We three beggars are downcast in Oolong Town, and we don't even have a place to live...... We can only rely on the back wall of the high-rise building in the Treasure Pavilion or the Hundred Refining Workshop, barely sheltering from the wind and rain, for more than ten years...... That's it. β
Tang Zheng put away the two casting notes with his identity plate, and asked, "You only remember your last name...... Can't remember your name at all? β
"That's right! But when we're beggars, we don't need names at all. Later, when the three of us beggars gradually had a little capital to settle down in Oolong Town, and we also needed a name...... It's all called Yilou. β
Originally, Tang Zheng thought that their name was very beautiful, and even girls could use it. didn't expect that behind this name, there was such a boldness of the past.
Tang Zheng smiled and nodded, "Okay, when I arrive in Feishi City, I'll invite him to drink." Just about. There's something else to ask him! β
Ban Yilou waved his hand, saying goodbye to Tang Zheng.
Tang was about to ask Lu Yilou about the [Unsheathed], the material that had changed dramatically after falling into the cold pool.
Because Lu Huang was in too much of a hurry, he didn't have time to ask clearly, and after Luo Fei saw it, he couldn't say why. Sue sΓΉ Tang Zheng can only be known by asking the old blacksmith who knows the local terroir to see.
And Tang Zheng took the [Unsheathed] to find Old Man Chen, the best blacksmith in Oolong Town, but what he got was only a burst of amazement at the sophistication of the Unsheathed, and there was no valuable gain.
It seems that I want to know why the color of the unsheathed changes. Why does the material change, you can only ask Lu Yilou, who is familiar with Oolong Town!
β¦β¦
Just two days after the summer solstice, the summer list of the Tianqin family was placed in Oolong Town.
The capital school palace of the Tianqin family, the Qinling School Palace, won the first place on this year's summer list!
Among the 300 academic palaces of the eighty-one family, the number of graduates of the Qinling Academy Palace this year is 214, which is the highest in the entire Xingyao Continent.
It was still followed by the Xiyang Academy Palace from the Tianqin family, with one hundred and ninety people. The third is the Qing Literature Palace of the Wenhua family, with 175 people.
After that, the fourth to tenth places are the Huajian family's Alder Palace, the Qiantang family's Shengtang Palace, the Tianqin family's Dongyang Palace, the Liuyun family's Jingyun Palace, the Chiba family's Cui Ti Palace, and the Donglong Family's Longding Palace. And...... Huaishui Bai family's Jixia School Palace.
Nine of the top ten school palaces are from top families!
"Since there are so many places in the school palaces of these top families, why do you have to go to the school palaces where the number of places is tight?" Tang Zheng finished reading the places of the four school palaces of the Tianqin family, and the total could probably be more than seven hundred.
"The school palace of the top family...... Although there are many places, but. There are more people who want to go in, but there are more ......" Tang Xiaotang spread his hand and said helplessly.
Finally. Three or four days have passed since the summer solstice, and the summer list of Changyuan Leng's family. Finally arrived at Oolong Town.
One Qinling Academy of the Tianqin Family has graduated two hundred and fourteen three-star martial artists this year, and the four palaces of the entire Changyuan Leng Family have only graduated ninety-four!
And the number of graduates of Yisu School Palace is ...... The "four" of ninety-four, a fraction.
"Huh, this year's Yisu School Palace, there are only four places?" Tang Xiaotang was a little apprehensive in his heart again.
There are too few places......
She is a two-star beginner-level martial artist, and she doesn't know if she can pass the final assessment.
The other children of Tangjiabao were also very nervous when they saw such a small number of places.
As far as their Tang Family Fort is going to Feishi City, there are more than four two-star martial artists!
β¦β¦
Feishi City is far from Oolong Town, and it will take about four or five days to take the official road by horse-drawn carriage, but if you ride a horse, it will not take that long.
If it was just Tang Zheng and Xu Qingyan, they would have set off on a snowy war horse in the morning, and they would have arrived that night.
However, there was a lot of luggage to be carried to Emerald City, and Zheng Qian and all of them had to accompany him as escorts, so it was naturally impossible to ride lightly.
A total of two carriages set off from Tangjiabao.
In the carriage were Tang Xiaotang, Tang Zixie, Tang Xuan and Little Bell.
Outside the carriage were Tang Zheng and Meng Fenghua, and behind them were Zheng Qian and his twenty brothers.
They were waiting for Xu Qingyan on the West Street of Wulong Town, and passers-by quickly avoided it.
Soon, on the high top floor of Yimeng Pavilion, a melodious music sounded, and the soft voice of the Tianxiang girl made the entire hustle and bustle of Yimeng Pavilion stop for her, and with her singing, Xu Qingyan walked down from the upstairs with a sword.
He took his snowy war horse, glanced back at the Yimeng Pavilion, and immediately turned over and got on the horse: "Let's go!" β
Tang Zheng looked up and said with a smile: "Don't you take her?" β
Xu Qingyan shook his head and followed Tangjiabao's convoy without saying a word......
Da-da-da, da-da-da.
The horse's hooves stepped on the bluestone pavement, and led them out of Oolong Town, all the way to Feishi City
