Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Twin Swords
Two weeks later, the training classes at the orphanage were over, and the entrance exams for the major spell academies in Panhu City were about to begin, and the streets were full of students rushing to take the exams, and the waiters in restaurants and hotels were busy, waiting for the candidates who came from afar to stay and eat.
Lan Yifan rented a few carriages for the children to enter the city, and before leaving, she informed the children in detail about the precautions for the exam. First of all, cheating is absolutely not allowed, and the invigilation in each exam room is particularly strict, and once discovered, the opportunity to enter the school is permanently lost. Secondly, the exam is a written test, except for pen and ink, the rest of the things are not allowed to be brought into the examination room, and all kinds of weapons and blades need to be placed in the storage place by the invigilator and kept on behalf of the examiner. Finally, before the start of the exam, you must remember to fill in the information of your study occupation, candidate number, and name at the top of the exam paper, which determines the candidate's future development direction and class arrangement. If you make a mistake, you will be placed in a class where you are not good at your job.
Panhu City's Spell College uniformly adopts the grade classification system, the school is divided into four grades according to the candidates' grades, A-level is the excellent grades, such candidates will generally be divided into the top class of the college, B-level is the good grades, and the candidates who have obtained the B-level certificate will be divided into key classes, C-level is the average grade, the most candidates at this level, their classes are called ordinary classes, and D-level is the poor-graded, the college will not give up this kind of students, and the strengthening class seems to be poor students, but each college will select the best teachers to be responsible for tutoring themγ
Although each spell academy is 100% enrolled, meaning that even if you do poorly in the entrance exam, you will not be eliminated by the academy, but there is a clear difference in the number of admissions between spell schools. A prestigious school like Ilaniss Royal College has a fixed enrollment of 100 new students every year, neither more nor less, and those candidates who have filled in the application but received a notification letter that the quota is full can only be beyond the reach of the dust.
Relying on Lan Yifan's relationship, it is not difficult for the children in the orphanage to fill in the ideal college in their hearts, but the next thing is up to them, and only they know how effective the training course will be for them.
After two weeks of review, Shen Fangli has memorized most of the key points that should be remembered, and the rest of the things that I can't remember firmly have to give up, she estimated that the proportion of the knowledge points given up is about 20%, that is to say, there is basically no hope for the A-level certificate, and it is not bad to look down and adjust to the best state, and strive to get a B-level certificate.
Before school starts, it's time to choose a satisfactory weapon for yourself, Shen Fangli will study as a spell mage in the future, and she has the golden staff given to her by her father, of course, she doesn't have to worry about this matter, but Liu Yuhan and Mu Yunxi don't have a suitable weapon yet, and the two of them must rush to the weapon shop in the city to buy weapons.
There was still a long time before the start of the exam, and even if the weapon was bought in the weapon shop, it would be too late to rush to the Elaniss Royal Academy, so Shen Fangli decided to accompany the two of them.
The Blade Weapon Shop is the best weapon shop in Panhu City, with fair prices and a wide variety of types. Even some weapons tools are sold, and in the past, most of the customers of the weapon shop were adult spell practitioners, and at the beginning of the academy, there were especially many students of weapons.
Since Shen Fangli didn't need to buy it herself, she could only watch Liu Yuhan and Mu Yunxi buy it from the sidelines, but the two of them had been walking around the sword rack for a long time, did the two of them want to buy a sword? Do they both want to be sword spellmasters? That's not good, if they all become sword spell masters, they will definitely not be in the same class as her in the future, if so, her life will be a little boring.
"Hey, 'Iceberg Girl', it's not good to be a swordsman. Shen Fangli stabbed Liu Yuhan in the armpit with her elbow, "There are too many people who practice swords in the world, and the sword has a very obvious disadvantage compared to other weapons, the long-range attack is not comparable to the gun and the bow, the short-range attack power is weaker than the axe, and the power of the spell is the defeat of the spell master's subordinates who mainly use the staff, only the combat skills are more powerful, I think you might as well change your profession to practice." β
"Don't forget, swords are lighter than other weapons, and that's why I chose swords. Liu Yuhan fiddled with a long sword with a silver spine in his hand, and suddenly swung it in front of Shen Fangli, "Don't call me 'Iceberg Girl', otherwise, I will let you understand the power of the sword spellmaster." β
Liu Yuhan's aura shocked Shen Fangli's head as if a drop of cold sweat broke out, and he hurriedly shook his hand and said, "Then you choose slowly, I won't bother you." β
When Liu Yuhan focused on choosing a sword again, Shen Fangli immediately turned around and came to Mu Yunxi on the other side, thinking about how to deal with this stupid boy who was a little stupid.
Mu Yunxi felt a sight behind him, staring straight at him, he hurriedly turned his head and saw that it was Shen Fangli, her eyes didn't blink at this time, and her body seemed to stiffen.
"Hey, do I have something on my face, why do you keep staring at me?" Mu Yunxi asked with a wave of his hand in front of Shen Fangli's eyes.
Shen Fangli said seriously: "Yunxi, you have something to hide from me." β
"What am I hiding from you?"
Seeing that Mu Yunxi laughed twice, Shen Fangli quickly lowered her voice, glanced at Liu Yuhan nearby, and after seeing that she didn't notice herself, she immediately whispered to Mu Yunxi: "Tell me honestly, do you like Liu Yuhan?"
Mu Yunxi said with a disapproving expression: "What are you talking about, how can that kind of cold girl have an appetite for me?"
"You don't fill me with garlic, I've noticed you since the first day I came to the orphanage, you snatched back her doll for Liu Yuhan, and then asked me to return it to her, I was thinking at the time, why didn't you hand it over to her personally?" Shen Fangli pointed at Mu Yunxi and said, "Now I finally figured it out, it turns out that you like her, so you are so shy, right?"
"Please, totally wrong. Mu Yunxi sighed and said, "You can scold me as much as you like, I just wanted to try what effect the dialogue between you two beauties with completely incompatible personalities would have, in short, it was a bad taste, and then I found out that the effect was not good, did you see me apologize to Liu Yuhan? No!"
Shen Fangli pouted and said, "That...... Then why did you choose to practice swordsmanship? Couldn't you choose other weapons?"
"Really...... Do you care what I like?" Mu Yunxi shouted "oops" and said, "Don't hinder me from picking a sword, for me, the sword is the embodiment of justice, if you make trouble again, it will be unjust." β
"I don't care, I just won't let you buy a sword anyway. Shen Fangli said that she was going to snatch the sword in Mu Yunxi's hand.
"Why are you so unreasonable?"
Mu Yunxi didn't want to let go, so the two scrambled, he knew that his strength was greater than Shen Fangli, if he really grabbed it, Shen Fangli would definitely not be able to snatch him, after all, the other party was a girl, it didn't make sense for him not to let it go, but as soon as he let it go, the sword flew out due to inertia, accompanied by a scream of "ah", Shen Fangli covered his bleeding left hand.
"I didn't mean to, how about it, are you okay?" Mu Yunxi hurriedly wanted to see the injury on Shen Fangli's left hand, but was pushed away by her.
"I said, what did you do? The weapons are very sharp, didn't you look at the notice in front of the door? The owner of the weapon shop wearing a beret came over in order to examine the injuries on Shen Fangli's hand, and Liu Yuhan also walked to Mu Yunxi's side at this time and asked him what happened?
Although Mu Yunxi kept apologizing, Shen Fangli didn't want to deal with him at all, she reached out and asked the boss to bandage her wounds.
Liu Yuhan pinched Mu Yunxi's neck and threatened: "Righteous nerd, you dare to bully my sister Li, you are not small, do you want to die." β
"Let it go, I said...... I didn't mean to, she was making trouble herself, who can blame her?" Mu Yunxi coughed a few times and begged Liu Yuhan to let him go.
Shen Fangli screamed and said angrily, "Okay...... All right...... Don't make a fuss, it's all my fault, it's me who is nosy, so much so that I ask for trouble, okay!"
"For Limei's sake, I spared you. Liu Yuhan let go of his hand as he spoke.
"Fortunately, the wound is not deep, otherwise it would not have been just this little bit of blood. After wrapping the bandages for Shen Fangli, the owner of the weapon shop picked up the black sword on the ground and handed the sword to Mu Yunxi with both hands, "This guest, you are too careless, the name of this sword is Yanhe, and it is the most famous sword in this shop." β
Mu Yunxi's mouth opened wide in surprise: "No, it is said that Yanhe is one of the top ten famous swords in the world, who was its original owner, how could it appear here?"
"Then tell me, is this sword in my hand worth anything?" Before the boss could answer, Liu Yuhan threw the sword he had just picked up with the scabbard at the boss.
"This sword is the Yingbi Sword, one of the top ten famous swords in the world, and the Yanhe Sword in the hand of that guest is a twin sword. The boss took the sword, his eyes swept over the silver sword spine and the white blade, waved it for a while, then put the sword back into its sheath and turned to Mu Yunxi, "Just now you asked me why our store has this world-famous sword, I can only tell you that the Yanhe Sword and the Yingbi Sword were sold to Zai Xia by two travelers, a man and a woman, and the price they sold was very low, but the condition was that I could not reveal their identities to anyone, and after finding the destined people of these two swords, I would hand over the two swords to them." β
"Boss, do you mean, Yuhan and I are destined for these two twin swords?" Mu Yunxi smiled happily and said, "Then hurry up and sell it to us cheaply, it's best to get a discount, you see that my friends are all injured because of this sword, although we are also wrong, but if everyone takes a step back, wouldn't it be better." β
Shen Fangli grimaced at Mu Yunxi, very disdainful of his behavior, just because of a broken sword, this guy sold her without hesitation.
"That's okay, these two swords add up to three hundred belanges, I will suffer a loss, count you at half price, a total of two hundred and fifty berens." β
Liu Yuhan happily settled the account with the boss, but Mu Yunxi only found sixty-five beluns all over his body, so he had to reluctantly walk up to Shen Fangli and whispered: "Fangli, can you lend me ten beluns first, and I will pay you back next time." β
"What did you say? I didn't hear that. Shen Fangli deliberately pretended to be deaf, and her eyes turned away.
"I said to lend me some money first, I didn't need it urgently. β
"You can borrow it, but you have to shout three times, 'Miss Shen, I was wrong, please forgive me. 'Lift me up again.' Although Mu Yunxi's voice was already very weak, Shen Fangli didn't intend to let him go easily.
Mu Yunxi suppressed his anger and said, "Hey, did I say that you are so troublesome? Didn't I apologize to you just now?"
"Hehe...... "Shen Fangli let out a series of sneering laughs, "I apologized to you just now, and now it's your turn to apologize to me, which seems fair." β
Mu Yunxi realized that he was given a counter-army by Shen Fangli, but Liu Yuhan also echoed on the side: "This is all your fault, don't expect me to help you!"
In the end, Mu Yunxi had no choice but to hang his head and do what Shen Fangli said, in front of so many people, his face was lost, but somehow, when he took Shen Fangli's hand, his heart was pounding, what was going on, he couldn't figure it out.
After buying the two world-famous swords, the three of them came out of the Gathering Blade Weapon Shop, Mu Yunxi had nothing left, and the fare to the examination room of the Elaniss Spell Academy still needed to pay for the two girls around him, which made him really a little embarrassed, but surprisingly Shen Fangli didn't say anything, did her mood improve?
In fact, Shen Fangli's mood did not improve, fifty percent of the resentment in her heart dissipated because of Mu Yunxi's apology to herself, and the other fifty percent was jealous that Mu Yunxi and Liu Yuhan could use such a powerful world-famous sword.
Why are the Yanhe Sword and the Yingbi Sword the twin swords?
