Pinnacle Academy, come to Hetai Square.

The annual opening ceremony is about to start, and at this time there are already a lot of people gathered in the square, Gu Heyang glanced around, and didn't see Wei Long, although it was a little strange, but the mood was still a lot more relaxed in an instant.

"Are you afraid to see Miss Wei?" Qi Hao suddenly said coldly.

"How is that possible?" Gu Heyang raised his voice.

"Then why are you weak-hearted?"

"Am I weak-hearted?"

"Didn't you?"

"Is there one?"

Just when the two were arguing, they saw a burst of thick white mist suddenly drifting on the crane platform, and after the fog slowly dispersed, there was a middle-aged man wearing a sable robe standing on the platform.

"Da Zhuang! I don't know I'm allergic to dry ice! Jin Fugui shouted backstage.

"I'm sorry, Chief Jinlou, I added too much dry ice." Da Zhuang explained again and again: "It was added by Master Supervisor Song, and she said that the dean specially explained that you must create a hazy beauty when you appear, saying that this strong contrast can bring out your tall and mighty temperament, so as to further enhance the image of the academy." ”

Jin Fugui was choked and almost lost his voice, although he didn't speak, he couldn't help but scold in his heart, set off a fart! Fix these useless moths every day!

Gu Heyang looked at the scene on the stage, and suddenly smiled: "Hey! Uncle, are you alright? Wear a mink in the summer? ”

"That's right! You're not yes! ”

"I'm afraid I'm not a fool!"

"Hahahaha!"

When Jin Fugui heard this, he scolded in his heart: "You think I am willing to wear a mink, but I was not forced by the dean!" ”

At this moment, there were three bells in the academy, and I saw Jin Fugui touch the sweat on his forehead, clear his throat, and said with full anger: "Ah! On this beautiful day when gongs, drums and firecrackers are ringing out, Peak Academy is finally about to open! First of all, please allow me to introduce myself to you, I am the six-story head of the Peak Academy, Jin Fugui, and today I will preside over this grand opening ceremony, the so-called is not a family does not enter the door, I know that you students do not know much about the Peak Academy, and do not understand why they suddenly appear here one day! Yes, not only you, including me, also have such confusion, but this does not prevent us from progressing, nor does it prevent us from becoming better than our past selves. Now that you have come to the Academy, it doesn't matter who you used to be, what matters is who you can become in the future! But so. As we all know, the academy has seven floors, each floor has its own strengths, so before the official admission, we have a separate building trial, mainly to test your comprehensive quality, this trial will eliminate two-thirds of the students, and finally stay, the academy guarantees that the future will be added to the official and knighted, you may wish to tell you that the academy has signed a long-term talent strategic cooperation plan with the royal family of the Southern Dynasty, so this is the only time you can glorify your ancestors without relying on the imperial examination, and regardless of your background! It's time to fight for the sake of the family and fight for honor! By the way, we would like to remind you that the students who have been eliminated will not be refunded for their tuition. ”

Only then did Gu Heyang understand why his father had to tie him up to the Peak Academy, this was indeed a great opportunity for their Gu family to put gold on their ancestors' faces that they couldn't cultivate in their eighteen lifetimes, if it wasn't for the fact that he was almost killed by Bai Laoxie before, Gu Heyang almost believed it!

At this time, some students in the audience suddenly took the lead in applauding. The people in the square seemed to understand the meaning of their existence at once, and burst into thunderous cheers and applause.

Jin Fugui nodded with satisfaction and continued: "There are three rounds of this trial: the first round of physical test, which tests the strength of endurance, and the fastest one wins. In the second round of written test, the test is resourceful, and the one with the highest score wins. The third round of martial arts test, the test is your fighting and grappling skills, the highest martial arts wins, this trial by the college tutors are responsible for the overall supervision, if there is a violation, immediately cancel the trial qualifications, expelled from the college, by the way, the expelled students, the academy will not refund the tuition. ”

As soon as Jin Fugui's words fell, Qi Hao's back was rudely pushed down, and a series of voices exploded in the back of his head like thunder: "Poor scholar, get to the back, don't block our little grandfather's sight." ”

Qi Hao staggered a few steps, almost fell, and when he looked up, he saw five people standing in front of him, although they were only in their early twenties, but all of them were born with old faces, tigers and bears, and one of them still had a scar on his face.

Qi Hao was pushed a little embarrassed, and was about to step forward to theorize, but was grabbed by Gu Heyang, and said in a low voice: "These people are not like good stubble, don't move, I'll come." ”

After finishing speaking, Gu Heyang smiled at the five people and said, "A few people, I'm afraid it's not good for you to be like this." ”

"What happened to us?" The scar man led by him stretched out his hand to push Gu Heyang, but he never thought that Gu Heyang reacted extremely quickly, and he dodged it with one dodge.

"Boy, you're guts!" The scar man was furious and was about to step forward, but he heard a soft shout: "Stop!" Two shabby country boys, what should they do? ”

From behind the five people stepped out a young man in brocade clothes, who looked handsome, but his expression was extremely disdainful.

"The little grandfather is very right!" The scar man kicked Gu Heyang fiercely as he spoke, and retreated behind the young man.

"Who is this kid? Why do you still bring thugs to the academy? Gu Heyang said.

"What? You don't even know him? Chu Congliang, the first of the four great gentlemen of the Southern Dynasty, is Chu Congliang? A mustache behind Gu Heyang suddenly approached and said.

"I haven't heard of it."

"You are all from other places, don't you know, this little grandfather of Chu is my Chu Guogong Chu Jiuwen, who has made great military achievements in the Southern Dynasty, when Chu Guogong led 5,000 personal soldiers to defeat the barbarian 100,000 iron cavalry, and recovered seven border cities in one fell swoop, now I think about it is also very happy!"

"He's going to test with us, too?" Gu Heyang asked.

"It is said that he has been taken in by the academy in advance, and coming here today is nothing more than a formality." The mustache said.

—

On the crane platform, Jin Fugui began to read out the rules of the first round of the competition.

In the first round, the endurance competition required everyone to carry a bucket of water and arrive at Guangxiao Temple twenty miles away from the academy in the fastest way, and the top 100 who arrived first could be qualified for the second round of written exams. When carrying forty pounds of water on your back to run twenty miles is indeed a difficult test, but the weight is only the foundation, and the more difficult is still to come.

Jin Fugui continued: "There are three other points that must be made clear here: first, the clean water in the bucket must be protected, and it must not be less than two-thirds after reaching the destination; Second, the water in the bucket should not be replaced along the way, and if it is dumped, it will be disposed of with abstention; Third, do not take carriages and other tools, once someone does not follow the rules, once found, they will be eliminated directly! ”

"Let's go!"

All of them rushed forward in a huh, one by one grabbing the nearby buckets on their backs and scattering around.

At this time, it is the height of summer, the willows outside the city are verdant, the wild grass is lush, and a conspicuous loess road winds out, like a yellow dragon hidden in the green waves in the distance.

Gu Heyang and Qi Hao walked side by side on the road, at first the dirt road was flat, and they didn't feel tired when they walked, but gradually there were dangerous slopes and cliffs on the road, sometimes waist-deep streams blocking the way, sometimes potholes and mud floors, and the two of them had to carry heavy buckets, and they felt more and more powerless.

More and more people stopped along the way, and many people secretly poured out the water in the buckets and moved forward lightly with empty buckets; Some people have friends to help and relay water, while others deliberately obstruct trouble, knock over other people's buckets, and make people waste their efforts. Especially Chu Congliang's six-member group, they stopped at the front, and anyone who surpassed them was punched and kicked, making people dare to be angry and dare not speak.
