Chapter 39: The More You Know

The wardener glanced at the group of constipated people in the audience, and seemed to enjoy this unpleasant feeling. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

He smiled and nodded.

His voice wasn't very loud, but it had a strange penetrating power.

Sun Chenghuan, who is the farthest away from him and has many people in between, can hear it very clearly.

The rules are very simple, both civil and military.

Both magic and martial artists went to participate in the assessment of the martial arts, and the top eight in the competition, as well as the two people who were considered qualified among the eliminated people, became students of the second academy.

The liberal arts assessment is much simpler.

Written.

The whole rule was narrated and lasted less than five minutes.

After that, the housemaster came to the dormitory of the second college with everyone with complicated minds.

Starting today, they will be staying here for three days.

Just like at Orientation College, Second College requires all students to live on campus as much as possible.

In addition to the consideration of ease of management, many times it is also to cultivate the collective spirit of cultivating students' cooperation.

Although this spirit is not very useful for nobles, it is a very useful quality for many magicians and warriors.

After all, both warriors and magicians have the duty to "serve the country".

It is to go to war.

On the battlefield, this is a life-saving quality.

Sun Chenghuan, who has always been accustomed to collective life, will not have any opinions on this matter.

Moreover, there are more than 1,000 of them, which still makes the Second Academy very "inconvenient".

The warden, apparently, had never received so many people.

The dormitory of the Second College has also been significantly renovated.

Each room has been turned into a shared room for six people.

Previously, it was clear that each room in these dormitories was occupied by only one person.

Before everyone enters the dormitory that is open to them, they draw a lot, and according to the dormitory number drawn, they enter the dormitory.

A fair way.

Of course, it may be that the housemaster himself is too lazy to allocate dormitories to these students.

Sun Chenghuan did not rush to the front, nor did he lag behind the end of the whole team.

In the middle of the entire large team, Sun Chenghuan completed his own lottery before the warden, who was watching them draw lots at the door of the dormitory building, got impatient.

Dormitory 13.

On the second floor.

According to the dormitory number, Sun Chenghuan came to his thoughtful room smoothly and found the bed he drew by himself.

Originally, these dormitories were for one person, but now they have been transformed into six people, so all the beds are in bunk beds.

Sun Chenghuan drew an upper bunk......

According to what the dormitory supervisor just said, he is definitely going to participate in the martial arts assessment, tomorrow he will get up early in the morning to draw lots, and then start the assessment competition, and today there is nothing else, Sun Chenghuan jumped directly on his top bunk in two steps and lay down.

Just sleep like that.

The admission quota of twenty people just now was too impactful, and he needed to calm down quietly by himself and think about what he was going to do next.

It's just that......

"Hello everyone, my name is Anthony, I'm from Enke City, and I'm a fourth-level magician......"

A man suddenly broke the somewhat eerie silence in the room.

"Be quiet. ”

Another person interrupted the whole person's self-introduction.

Full of impatience.

“...... Everybody's not going to have to ...... in the next few days."

"It's just tonight, and it's just tomorrow night. Another person said, "And maybe some people won't be there tomorrow night, so let's save our efforts." ”

"Like, more than a thousand people choose twenty, do you really think you can stay here tomorrow night?" said the man who had interrupted the man named Anthony.

The scene suddenly became very awkward.

Even Sun Chenghuan, who was lying on his bed with his eyes closed, felt this weirdness.

"Everyone is nervous, so let's stop talking. ”

Sun Chenghuan finally couldn't hold back and spoke.

"Who's nervous? I'm sure I'm one of those twenty people. ”

A person said a little stiffly.

It's just that his words were accompanied by the laughter of several other people.

Obviously, everyone can hear that he himself is not confident.

Two of the six beds in the room were left empty, which were filled much later.

In the end, except for the fourth-level mage who was a little short and had the same name as the white-bearded old man Sun Chenghuan had seen in the cave outside Yingao City, the other few people did not introduce themselves in any way.

The reading of books, the meditation of meditation, and people like Sun Chenghuan who fall asleep on the bed are sleeping.

A strange sense of balance.

After a while, someone came to inform me that it was time for dinner, and since it was the first meal today, the housemaster demanded that "everyone must go."

This is a dinner where "rules" are more important than "content".

The warden, at the door of the cafeteria, impatiently poured out the rules for eating in the cafeteria like pouring water.

For example, during the meal, you must keep quiet during the meal, and it is strictly forbidden to make noise inside, and once there is an incident like a fight inside, both people will be expelled, which is valid even for the official students of the second college......

Stuff like that.

After that, Sun Chenghuan just ate a little casually and went back to the dormitory to sleep. He decided to get some rest.

Even if the housemaster said that for the rest of the day, they could walk around the campus and no one would care about them.

Because when he was queuing at the door of the cafeteria, he found something very serious.

It seems that among the more than 1,000 people, more than eighty percent of them will be students who choose martial arts......

There are too many magicians and warriors.

Especially magicians.

And judging from himself, Sun Chenghuan said that most of them were fourth-level magicians.

Although he seems to be a fifth-level magician, according to the martial arts and chaos magic he has practiced, they are relatively simple and easy to deal with, but just imagine that in the next two days, even, it is very likely that in one day, he will have to complete two or two battles, from a huge scale of eight or nine hundred people, to the last eight people......

Sun Chenghuan was still a little chilled.

It was certainly a contest that lasted from early in the morning until late at night.

So, hungry or not, it's easy to say, tomorrow there will be time to eat. Sleep, be sure to get enough sleep.

Even, in order to sleep better, he also cast a sleep technique in a chaos magic that was not very effective on himself.

Just in case someone makes a fuss at night.

But apparently he was overthinking.

He was not the only one who realized that he needed a good night's rest.

It was a quiet night.

The next morning, when Sun Chenghuan woke up, he even found that he was not the first to get up.

After going to the cafeteria to eat a sumptuous free breakfast, Sun Chenghuan followed the instructions he heard yesterday and came to the martial arts arena of the Second Academy.

In a place like Mills, where every inch of land is valuable, the fact that the Second Academy can have such a big martial arts arena that Sun Chenghuan feels surprised can only show the importance of this school to Mills and even the country of Merce.

When I passed by the cafeteria yesterday, it was still a flat ground, and overnight, four tables had been erected here.

There were no ornate ornaments, no high platforms, just four simple to rudimentary jousting platforms made of planks and shelves enclosed with ropes.

After Sun Chenghuan came to the martial arts arena, he immediately knew where he should go.

In the open space between these four tables are several tables and chairs.

Apparently where the proctor will be sitting today.

"Young man, it's early to get up!"

Although Sun Chenghuan was not the first person to get up, nor was he the first person to go to the cafeteria for breakfast, he was the first person to enter the martial arts arena.

More people who had already gotten up were waiting outside the martial arts arena, or doing some preparatory activities.

And in the large open space of the martial arts arena, there was only one person sitting there.

It was this person who smiled and said hello to Sun Chenghuan.

"Hello. Sun Chenghuan bowed very politely.

"Everyone else is staying outside, why did you come in?" The man who looked to be in his forties nodded towards Sun Chenghuan, which was considered a salute, "I didn't see you rushing so far forward yesterday!"

“......”

Sun Chenghuan was stunned. There's so much information in this sentence.

Yesterday......

To put it this way......

"Relax a little. That person saw Sun Chenghuan's expression, and in an instant, his expression was a little strange.

He also realized that he seemed to have said the wrong thing.

"Hmm......" Sun Chenghuan nodded and took a deep breath, "How is today's contest draw arranged?"

"In such a hurry?" the uncle laughed.

"More than 900 people. Sun Chenghuan sighed a little helplessly, "Today's competition is over, just four platforms...... It doesn't feel like it's going to be until tomorrow morning. ”

"Are you...... Warrior?" the uncle put away his smile and glanced at Sun Chenghuan, his eyes falling on the knife behind Sun Chenghuan.

"Sort of......" Sun Chenghuan nodded.

"Really, aren't you confident?"

"No, I'm still a Level 3 magician. Sun Chenghuan explained.

"Demon Martial Dual Cultivation?" the middle-aged man frowned, "You can't learn anything like this, can you?"

"A third-level magician isn't unlearned, right?"

"Today, if you are qualified to compete on stage, you must be at least a fourth-level magician. The middle-aged man said lightly, "Otherwise, it's a waste of everyone's time." ”

“...... Then why are there so many third-level magicians......"

"Some small cities are really not very good......! Where are you?"

"Welcoming the ......"

"What?" the middle-aged man frowned slightly.

"A small city by the East Sea. Sun Chenghuan smiled slightly.

It's not a good feeling.

"Although you came early, you may not be able to get on stage...... the middle-aged man said halfway.

"yes, what kind of fun are the third-level magicians coming to join in!"

A voice interrupted the middle-aged man's words.

Sun Chenghuan and the middle-aged man were stunned.

A girl appeared next to her.

Sun Chenghuan has an impression of this girl.

Yesterday, while waiting, it was this girl who was the first to complain publicly.

Since she was such an anxious girl, Sun Chenghuan wouldn't mind what she said, but looked at the middle-aged man again.

He understood very well the affinity of the middle-aged man when he saw the knife behind his back, and the unhappiness after knowing that he was also a magician.

He noticed the middle-aged man's right hand, which had only four fingers.

No thumbs.

But from the thick cocoon on his tiger's mouth, Sun Chenghuan could naturally think that before the thumb was lost, this person should be a master with a knife.

He should be a very powerful soldier.

It's just that without a thumb, this person should have no way to use a knife anymore.

"Actually, my major is still martial arts, and magic is a minor. Sun Chenghuan naturally knows how to speak, so that this person can have a better impression of himself.

"Oh, you're different. The middle-aged man heard Sun Chenghuan's words, and his mood was obviously better.

What a man who doesn't have a city......

Sun Chenghuan watched the expression change on his face, and said silently in his heart.

Purely military.

"Well, because I originally wanted to join the army, naturally compared to magic, it is true to practice martial arts first. Sun Chenghuan said this very sincerely.

"What kind of magic is your minor's in light magic?" the middle-aged man nodded.

Generally speaking, it is normal for a martial artist to minor in a little light magic.

On the battlefield, you can carry out some simple treatment on yourself and your comrades, and if you don't do it, you can save people's lives.

"Chaos. Sun Chenghuan shook his head.

"Chaos?" the middle-aged man was stunned.

looked Sun Chenghuan up and down again.

Sun Chenghuan nodded.

This one...... What's wrong?

"You're there...... Is that the name called...... Yingao City, the chaos magic has been cultivated to the third level?"

"Hmmm......"

"When did you get to level three?"

"Two years, right?" Sun Chenghuan thought for a moment.

"How old are you?"

"Fourteen ......"

Be quiet.

"What's wrong?" Sun Chenghuan looked at the middle-aged man's strange expression on his face, a little uncertain.

"Two years ago, twelve years old, Chaos Magic Level 3 ......"

The girl next to her also looked at Sun Chenghuan with very strange eyes.

"Who is your mentor in your city?" the middle-aged man interrupted the girl.

"Mentor? is it a magic teacher...... There are no dedicated teachers. Sun Chenghuan shook his head.

"How could it be. The girl had a look of disdain on her face, "As for telling such a lie......?

"You'd better follow the mage to take the test. The middle-aged man didn't pay attention to the girl's words, but just shook his head at Sun Chenghuan, "I'll tell him about it after Claire comes in a while......"

“...... But I'm better at martial arts......"

“......”

Be quiet.

"You have that broken knife on your back, you say you are a warrior?"

"This ......" Sun Chenghuan pulled out the knife and tossed it in his hand, and then, shaking his head, "I think I'm still a martial artist." ”

"Whatever you want. The middle-aged man smiled, "Come, take the qualification test for the assessment, take your weapon, and use your strongest blow to cut me down." ”

“...... Really?" Sun Chenghuan looked strange.

"Hmm. All your blessing spells will be used as well. Don't worry, you can't hurt me. The middle-aged man raised his head proudly, "The entire country of Merce can count the people who can hurt me on one hand." ”

So it's four? Sun Chenghuan complained silently in his heart, but he wasn't stupid enough to say it.

"Then offend. Sun Chenghuan took the knife and posed, and then, the two blessings of strength and agility were added to his body.

Then, as the devil did, he thought of a chaotic magic.

Never tried, today ...... Try?

A spell.

The middle-aged man's originally calm expression instantly froze.

The ease is gone.

Serious.

A mantra was whispered.

Sun Chenghuan knew that it was a spell to petrify the skin, although he couldn't use it yet.

"I'm coming. Sun Chenghuan is ready.

The knife in his hand, which had been green due to patina, now glowed with a faint black light.

"Come on. The middle-aged man nodded seriously.

Sun Chenghuan slashed directly with a knife.

The middle-aged man used his right hand to meet the blade that slashed directly at Sun Chenghuan.

There was a crisp sound of two knives colliding together.

Bite.

And then.

There was a loud bang.

"Ahh

“......”
