Chapter 7: Autumn Tournament
After going down to the third floor, Qin Chen didn't have anything to prepare, so he was directly waiting in the hall for the old man to deal with the last things.
This process did not last long, and it took about a stick of incense to see the figure of the old man at the escalator.
"Let's go, I've got the foals ready." The old man smiled at Qin Chen, pointed to another convenient passage, and strode forward.
Qin Chen kept up with his steps, this passage was not long, and when he finished walking, he found that he had already left the hall of the Martial Spirit Hall and came to a wide and flat field, and there was a foal car parked not far away.
The old man got into the car, and Qin Chen trotted away.
"Drive." The coachman waved the reins and steered his horse.
In the luxurious and soft car, Qin Chen lifted the cloth curtain, and looked at the foal in front of him with a little curiosity, there was a faint white halo under the feet of this creature, as if it was a soul beast, he was a little surprised, he didn't expect that the Wuhun Hall actually had this means, and it could tame soul beasts in captivity.
"Kid, get some rest, it will take a day or two to get to your destination." The old man smiled, looking at Qin Chen's eyes full of kindness, it was already his luck to meet this kind of genius. Coughing lightly twice, he thought about it and decided to tell Qin Chen about the Martial Spirit Academy first, and pass the time by the way.
Sitting in the carriage, Qin Chen began to listen quietly, and the old man talked eloquently, obviously the other party knew much more than Chen Aoyun.
Time just passed slowly...
In a blink of an eye, two days passed.
Today, the sky is overcast, dark clouds are gathering, and there is an indescribable sense of oppression. The horse cart was driving on the ancient road at a speed that was not as fast as before, because a heavy rain had just passed, and the ground was muddy, which affected the speed.
It was already getting dark, and when the time came to evening, on the carriage, Qin Chen pulled up the curtain and could vaguely see a huge building in the distance.
That's where the trip will be!
In the past two days, the old man, also known as "Erke", would often take the time to tell Qin Chen some things about the academy, most of which were common sense, because he had studied in this martial soul academy before.
According to Lao Erke, this martial soul academy is a junior top college established by the martial soul hall, which is divided into grades one to six, and if you graduate, there are intermediate top martial soul colleges, advanced top martial soul colleges...
These are not much better than ordinary martial arts academies. Naturally, the conditions for entering are also extremely harsh, and the standard for students admitted by the junior top colleges is usually the innate soul power awakening level four or above.
Those below this standard can only go to the ordinary Martial Spirit Academy.
Like an intermediate or top martial soul academy, he hadn't gone to Lao Erke either, so Qin Chen couldn't know the information from his mouth.
Stomp Tread...
The foal made a noise, and the four hooves splattered muddy water on the ground, and the carriage finally stopped in front of the academy gates.
Lao Erke and Qin Chen got out of the car, and at this time, the patrolling guards saw the arrival of a living person and surrounded them with weapons.
"I'm looking for Dean Lin Yu, I've already written to him, and I ask Your Excellency to report it." Before the guards could speak, Old Erke said to the guards with a smile on his face.
Looking at Lao Erke's Martial Spirit Hall costume, which is a purple robe unique to the Soul Venerable and strong, the guards immediately did not dare to slack off, first bowed symbolically, and then ran out of a person to report.
Just waiting quietly outside the academy, Qin Chen glanced around.
He didn't expect that this academy was actually not in the city, but was located in this wilderness where birds don't, surrounded by green grass and trees, if he hadn't known in advance, who would have thought that this was the highest junior top academy in the Martial Spirit Palace.
Standing outside the academy, he saw that this academy was very large, the high walls were erected and he couldn't see its length, looking up slightly, Qin Chen could see that the buildings in the academy were extremely tall, maybe those were teaching buildings, but this feeling made him feel like he was in a modern city, as if he had returned to the earth.
"Hahaha, Erke, you're finally here." Just as Qin Chen was stunned, a hearty laughter came from afar.
It was an old man in plain clothes who spoke, Qin Chen came back to his senses and looked at it, only to find that although the other party had silver hair, he was a crane-haired boy with a strong face, and his eyes were also bright.
"Headmaster." Seeing the visitor, Lao Erke saluted respectfully.
The old man in plain clothes waved his hand, indicating that there was no need for this, and then his eyes turned and directly locked on Qin Chen: "This kid is the one you said who has awakened the innate soul power of the top martial soul." ”
"Yes." Old Erke replied.
The old man in plain clothes came to Qin Chen, looked at this little guy, couldn't help but reach out and pat him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Okay." ”
Around, the guards who had gathered on the side and had not dispersed heard the previous news, and their eyes immediately widened, looking at Qin Chen with incredulity, no one thought that this guy would be so perverted.
Top Martial Spirits! Innate soul power!
This kind of talent is undoubtedly a genius in the academy!
"Headmaster, then I'll hand it over to you."
Lao Erke said to the old man in plain clothes, looked at Qin Chen again, and finally got into the foal cart and ordered the coachman to return the same way. His task was to send Qin Chen to the academy, and now that the task was completed, it was naturally time to go back.
"Let's go in, little one." The old man in plain clothes smiled: "I will test your talent first, and then divide you into classes." ”
Qin Chen nodded: "Hmm." ”
Crossing the huge fine iron gaterail, under the leadership of the principal, Qin Chen entered the academy, the top of the prestigious Martial Spirit Academy.
The college is different from the tranquility outside, there is more of an active atmosphere, and as soon as you enter, you can see that there are many four wild flower platforms, and the flower platforms are full of various flowers and plants. Even though it's autumn, it's still red and yellow. Many of the flower stands have wooden chairs large enough to accommodate two or three people, and many students are dressed in college uniforms or enjoy flowers, or play around.
Qin Chen was a little puzzled, isn't this the academy? Why doesn't it look like it? Instead, it feels a bit like a garden.
One by one, there is no atmosphere that an academy should have.
On a bench chair, Qin Chen saw a tall and beautiful girl talking to another teenager, and when he saw the principal, the movements of the two were restrained.
This is the top school of Wuhun Academy?
As if seeing Qin Chen's doubts, the old man in plain clothes, who was also the principal, explained: "The college only has two theoretical classes a day, both of which are in the morning, and as long as it is after the third year, you can choose not to go to class, and these colleges will not enforce management. ”
And this?
The change in Qin Chen's eyes was wonderful.
"Doesn't it feel light?" The headmaster laughed.
Qin Chen nodded subconsciously, this is not only easy, there is no pressure to go to school here. Looking at the principal, he turned his head to look at the students around him, and he was curious: "Is there still an annual competition?" ”
The annual competition is a school-wide competition at the end of the semester every year. Each grade competes to determine the strongest one.
That's what Old Erke told him.
It's just that the other party didn't tell him that the usual management of this academy was so loose.
"Do you still know the annual competition?!" The dean was shocked, looked at Qin Chen, he quickly reacted, and guessed that this must have been told by Erke, and said lightly: "Not only the annual competition, but now the academy has also launched a quarterly competition, you came just in time, let's just hold an autumn competition next month, and the top ten will all have points." ”
The principal introduced the academy to Qin Chen with great interest, after all, if the other party's talent was real, it would really be a treasure.
He didn't want to slack off.
In addition to the introduction, soon the two of them came to the Martial Spirit Awakening Room one after the other, where there were no teachers or students, and it was the principal's exclusive place.
The two of them went in and began to test Qin Chen's talent again.
