Chapter 3: Prophecy (Collect)
Bailip was a little depressed, he got such an opportunity by mistake this year, and was ordered by the teacher to serve as the main leader of the competition, originally everything was going well, but he didn't expect to be stopped by a sudden question, which made him feel a little disgraced.
If it weren't for the senior sister who came out in time to relieve the siege, he wouldn't know how to get down the steps.
So he hurriedly asked people to bring food to the candidates, invited the candidates to lunch, and then retreated to sort out their mood.
In a hall on the second floor of the martial arts arena in the academy, Elder Jing Pingye was sitting on the main seat, looking at his apprentice Bailip with a kind face.
said: "Presiding over the enrollment of martial arts competitions is very cumbersome, and it is inevitable that there will be some accidents during the period. You and I, master and apprentice, shoulder to shoulder this matter, do not seek credit to everyone, but seek to be worthy of the trust of the Holy Lord and the college. ”
When Bai Lipu heard this, he was very moved, and knew that his teacher had no intention of blaming him for this matter, so he hurriedly bowed and bowed.
Seeing this, Jing Pingye stretched out his hand to help him up, and comforted: "Today's matter, the main responsibility is not you, it turns out that our college has been recruiting students for many years, and it is very rare to encounter someone who takes the initiative to apply for the Faculty of Arts!"
Bailip replied, "What the teacher taught. ”
Jing Pingye continued: "However, after this incident, it reminds us that the enrollment matter here has ended, so you have people draw up a charter to suggest that the enrollment of the Faculty of Arts will be included again in the future enrollment, which can be regarded as a beautiful thing." ”
As he spoke, Jing Pingye turned around, looked at Bailip with deep eyes, and said, "Do you understand what it means to be a teacher?"
Baili Pu was stunned for a moment and said, "The disciple understands that now that Senior Brother Jiufang is not around the teacher, I should do my best to assist the master!"
Jing Pingye listened, sighed slightly, and said: "Zhiming is indeed a proud protégé of the teacher, but in this matter, he will not do better than you, since the master entrusts you with the main matter, he believes in your ability, you don't have to have any burden, just do it with all your heart!"
When Bailip heard this, he was grateful in his heart, and bowed down deeply, and Elder Jingping said, "Okay, I don't have anything to do here, you can go and get busy first!"
When Bripp heard this, he turned and left.
After Bailipu left, Jing Pingye sat in the same place and quietly drank tea, but a person came out of the screen behind him, this person was very mysterious with a white mask, he couldn't see any expression, and quietly moved to Jing Pingye's face, and sat down by himself.
Jing Pingye glanced at the other party and said, "Can the envoy know if the prophecy points out the attributes of that alien person?"
The envoy shook his head and said, "No, what we can know now is that he will definitely appear in the entrance examination of this competition, and then enter the academy through this examination, and the rest of the more information will be gone!"
Jing Pingye twisted his beard and said: "Since this is the case, it will be difficult to implement it on specific individuals, after all, the enrollment scale this year is similar to that of previous years, and there are more than 2,300 people who have signed up, and there must be at least more than 1,000 people who can successfully pass the exam and stay!"
The envoy nodded, and said, "Indeed, it is really difficult to determine that person is the person mentioned in the prophecy now, but we still have to pay more attention, like the candidate who applied for the Faculty of Arts just now, we must keep a close watch!"
Jing Pingye nodded and said, "This is natural! In addition, I will also sort out all the information of candidates with special performance in this competition enrollment for future observation and follow-up!"
The envoy bowed his head slightly, and said, "It's still Elder Jingping who thinks carefully! In this way, we can find this person earlier, so that we can take the lead!" Haha!"
Jing Pingye owes himself and replied: "Thank you for the special envoy's compliment!"
The envoy said: "By the way, you should also pay more attention to the situation of Mo Changtian's son, maybe he will also appear in this exam! Once you find a clue, you must notify us immediately! You would rather kill by mistake than let it go, understand?"
Jing Pingye was taken aback and said, "What? Mo Changtian, the powerful man who returned from the Holy Mountain, his children will also come to participate in the martial arts competition? Doesn't it mean that he is dead?"
The envoy shook his head helplessly, and said coldly: "The child has died a lot, but I can't be sure if it is the child of this powerful man!"
Jing Pingye listened, and couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine. I thought to myself: I don't know how many children they have killed in order to hunt down this child.
However, he agreed: "Don't worry, the envoy, I will naturally pay attention! As soon as there is news, I will report it immediately without delay." ”
The envoy listened, nodded in satisfaction, and then turned to leave.
The afternoon sun dispelled the bitter cold of winter, and at this time, Xiaofeng and Shan Hao and other candidates had just finished lunch and were ready to start the afternoon test after a short rest.
Shan Hao said: "Xiao Feng, I'll go in for the wind attribute test in a while, I see that there are a lot of people who sign up for the wind attribute test, so you don't have to accompany me in, just take advantage of this time for you to practice a little more and prepare for the life system test, how about it?"
Xiaofeng nodded, patted his chest, and said, "Don't you know my situation, you just have to go with confidence, don't worry about me." I'll go around first!"
Shan Hao nodded, turned around and walked a few steps, but was stopped by Xiao Feng and said, "Shan Hao, come on!
Shan Hao nodded hard, made a cheering gesture, and then walked into the examination room for the wind attribute test.
Xiao Feng wandered around by himself, and most of the candidates at this time were running towards the energy attribute examination room they were cultivating, although the direction of each person was different, but the purpose was clear.
The four attributes of wind, fire, water, and earth almost included more than 2,200 candidates, and although the number of applicants for each department was slightly different, the overall difference was not large, and the rate was the same as that of previous years.
It's just that there are less than a hundred more people, and it is the small attribute field that this year specially takes care of-the life department.
The energy of the life system is different from the energy attributes of the other four systems, in the eyes of everyone, it is too mild and harmless, and the progress is slow, so there are few people who choose it.
On weekdays, the main responsibility of life department cultivators is to heal and heal injuries, so in a school like Kidd Academy, which focuses on martial arts teaching, the position of life department attributes is very embarrassing.
Xiao Feng looked at such a small number of people, and his heart was filled with bitterness and helplessness, secretly thinking that there were still people who had made the same choice as himself.
Just as he was thinking, a young man stepped forward and asked Xiao Feng, "Hey, buddy, where are you from? It seems that you are also a cultivator of the life attribute!"
Xiao Feng nodded and said, "My name is Yuyu Fengfeng, and I'm from ...... From the Three Domains of the Western Regions!" Xiao Feng blunted slightly.
The other party said, "Oh, hello, my name is Bai Yuyuan, and I am from Yunping City in Nanhexing Province!"
Xiao Feng was slightly shocked in his heart, because he vaguely remembered that on his way to the capital, he passed by Yunping, the provincial capital of Nanhexing Province, but at this time he couldn't explain this matter to him in detail, so he stretched out his hand and said very politely: "Hello, call me Xiao Feng! Nice to meet you!"
"Xiaofeng, hello, please call me Ah Yuan!" Ah Yuan said with a smile, then pointed to the two people behind him and said, "They are my fellow villagers, this is Ah Ping, this is Xiao Zheng!"
Xiao Feng greeted them one by one, and then asked tentatively, "The three of you are all life-type attribute cultivators?"
Ah Yuan said with a smile: "Even if it is!"
Xiao Feng was very strange about his answer, so he smiled and asked, "What do you mean by even if it is, yes, yes, yes, no, how can there be such an answer?"
Xiao Zheng looked young among the three of them, but he was quick to speak, so he preemptively said: "Oh, Xiaofeng, you don't know, the three of us are all from the suburbs of the provincial city of Yunping, because our families have been poor since childhood, we have never been in contact with any life system cultivation at all!"
"Haven't been in contact with it, so why did you come here to take the exam?" Xiao Feng asked more curiously.
Ah Ping scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "Because our family originally sent us to study medicine, thinking that even if we are not good at studying medicine in the future, at least we can see a headache and brain fever, and our own family will benefit, right?"
Xiaofeng listened and nodded.
"But what about the coincidence......" That Xiaozheng took over again, and said: "It just so happened that a few years ago, there was an uncle who practiced medicine in the local area and took in a few of us as apprentices, and we followed him to study for a few years, and I don't know if he has learned medical skills, and then he left, and we can't find him anywhere!"
Xiao Feng became more and more confused the more he listened, and asked, "But what does this have to do with you coming to the academy to participate in the competition for admissions?"
Bai Yuyuan listened, laughed, and said, "You two, you are talking farther and farther! Let me explain it to Xiaofeng!" The two people nodded.
Ah Yuan continued: "After our teacher disappeared, several of us continued to insist on following the teacher's teachings to show the people around us a small disaster and illness, so after a while, we met a cultivator by chance, and he found that we had actually mastered some life system cultivation skills, and we were already considered a cultivator!"
Xiao Feng looked at him and was very excited, obviously feeling that he was very surprised and grateful for the experience of becoming a cultivator by accident.
Suddenly, he remembered his father, who also gave others the help and care he could when he was at home.
Xiao Feng said, "There is such a bizarre experience, so you heard that Kidd Academy is recruiting, and it takes special care of the admission of cultivators with the attributes of the life department, so you came, right?"
Ah Ping and Xiao Zheng nodded.
Ah Yuan continued: "It's about the same, in fact, we didn't want to come, because only Xiao Zheng is fourteen years old this year, and Ah Zheng and I are already over the age, but our lieutenant said that the opportunity is rare, and we have to give it a try to be sure, in case we are admitted!"
Ah Ping also nodded heavily, and said, "Well, that's it, and the lieutenant governor personally helped us collect the travel expenses and sent us out of the border of Nanhexing Province before going back!"
Xiao Zheng said: "Of course, if one of us can be admitted to this Kidd Academy, the whole village will be exempted from taxes for a few years! If all three of us are admitted, I am afraid that all taxes in the village will be exempted in the future, and maybe it will be!"
Ah Ping listened to it, and nodded excitedly.
When Xiaofeng heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little sympathy and sympathy, and sincerely hoped that they could pass the exam.
So he said, "I think you will definitely be able to pass the test, after all, not everyone can catch such a rare opportunity!"
When Ah Yuan heard this, he said very happily: "Then let's borrow your auspicious words! I hope we can all pass the exam, and we can all be classmates together, how about it?"
"Okay, okay!" Ah Ping and Xiao Zheng said excitedly.
But at this time, a group of people came over, and Xiao Feng looked at it, it turned out to be the sons of Jiqiu Mansion who were in the limelight among the candidates in the morning.
I only heard one of them say in a fake voice: "Oh, this is really the world's big, there are no surprises, I didn't expect that in this empire's top academy, there would be such ignorant and superficial people, daydreaming, it's really ridiculous, ridiculous!"
When Xiao Zheng heard this, his face changed suddenly, and he stepped forward and asked, "Who do you say is ridiculous?"
Seeing this, Ah Yuan thought: Oh, it's not good......
