Chapter 3: The Academy of Souls
The midnight bell had struck for an hour, and Li Renqian was not tired at all. He was closing his eyes www.biquge.info recuperating when a slight tremor on the side of the bed caught his attention. The tremor lasted less than a second, and if he hadn't been in complete silence for too long, he wouldn't have noticed such a detail. But he was already alert, and then he noticed a dark shadow flashing through the window. He hurriedly got up and saw that Yang Tao's bed next door was empty! He poked his hand, and the bed was still a little warm.
This guy!
Li Renqian turned his head, and the window was still open. "It's not peeing, is it? Peeing jumped from the window? It's the third floor. While thinking, he walked softly to Lin Hyun's bed on the other side - sure enough, this guy was not there either! But Lin Hyun had been walking for a long time, and the bed was cold.
Li Renqian looked down from the window. In the middle of the night, there was no light in the dormitory, only the moonlight shivering in the black shadows of the trees. The iron door downstairs in the dormitory was blown by the wind. It seems that there is a reason why these guys did not go through the main entrance. Li Renqian looked at the walls on the left and right looking for a route to climb down, he really couldn't figure out how Yang Tao just jumped out and disappeared. However, he didn't do this wall climbing, his father used to stay in the laboratory for many years, and he forgot to bring the house key several times, and this is how he climbed upstairs, which is the fifth floor. These 3 floors shouldn't be a problem.
It took half an hour to finally reach the ground. Li Renqian touched the card in his pocket, slightly hooked the corners of his mouth, and walked towards the auditorium. Along the way, he also met a few students rushing to the auditorium, and he felt more and more that this incident was unusual. However, when the students saw Li Renqian, they ignored him and continued to walk in the direction of the auditorium.
Before 2 o'clock, Li Renqian could already see the crowd in the square in front of the auditorium. The crowd in the moonlight looks particularly eerie. No one said a word, only the rustling of leaves and the occasional footsteps could be heard.
"It shouldn't be some legendary cult, right? Worship or something...... Li Renqian thought and sweated, he hid at the back of the crowd, ready to slip away if the time was not right.
At 2 o'clock, Li Renqian saw a person walking out of the front of the square, and he couldn't see his face clearly at night, so he only heard the person say: "Students, please take out our invitation card, we will confirm it." ”
Li Renqian's hand in his pocket clenched the dark red card, his heart was extremely nervous, he didn't know what was going on with the confirmation in this person's mouth, could there be any other way to identify himself besides this invitation card?
After a while, no one came in at the entrance to the square. After another ten minutes or so, the person who had spoken before suddenly waved his hand, and a light flashed from his fingertips, and in an instant, more than a dozen people lay down in the square. At the same time, Li Renqian felt a wave of dizziness and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, it was not very strong, he held back stiffly, but his heart was like a shock in the sea.
"Sure enough, a lot of ordinary people get in every year. The person who spoke in the square sighed lightly and explained to everyone: "These are ordinary people who have no magic spirit. They just sleep temporarily, and I ask the teachers to take them back to the dormitory. ”
Li Renqian felt his legs weaken at this time, and he realized what kind of place he had reached. The people here seem to have some kind of "magic spirit", and they can use a mysterious power to bring a person down with a single move. His heart was beating loudly, and although he didn't know why he was still standing here, he still felt deep regret for his recklessness.
But the man didn't make any other moves. When the commotion in the crowd gradually subsided, he said slowly in a voice that sounded like a spring breeze: "Welcome to the Cang Soul Academy! I am the Great Elder Jian Ling, you can call me Ling Lao." Please hand in the soul card in your hand, and we will divide each student into classes based on the spiritual power value in the soul card. ”
Li Renqian's hand holding the small card trembled a little, and he seemed to understand what was going on. It turned out that in this ordinary county college, there was still a mysterious Cangsoul Academy hidden, and it was blatantly recruited in the name of "Dongxing Academy". The people who study in this Academy of Souls should all be those with special abilities. But Li Renqian, a noun in their world, doesn't understand anything, and if it's his turn to hand over the card, he will immediately be found to be a fake. He's now thinking about how to get out of here quietly. Beads of sweat the size of beans on Li Renqian's head kept dripping down, and he didn't want to lie down like his former classmates. It's a tricky task.
The ranks in the crowd slowly moved forward. Li Renqian looked left and right, but couldn't find the right time, but found that his roommate Yang Tao was not far from him, and it happened that Yang Tao also found him.
"Ah, didn't you say you slept at night?" Yang Tao flashed over a few people and walked up to Li Renqian's side and whispered, "It's still hidden...... Sure enough, you're also a cultivator!"
Seeing that he really couldn't find a chance to escape, Li Renqian had to ask in a low voice, "Yang Tao, is this ...... Uh, the spiritual power in the soul card...... How many do you have?" now he just wanted to know a little bit before he was carried out.
"Hehe, I'll tell you the truth, I broke through to Orange Soul a few days ago. Yang Tao said proudly. He also deliberately glanced at the classmates around him, and immediately received a lot of surprised eyes, and he was very satisfied with this result.
"Ah, it's really amazing!" Seeing the performance of the classmates around him, Li Renqian would be an idiot if he didn't know the praise at this time. He then asked, "So, what about Lin Hyun?"
Yang Tao, who didn't have time to enjoy Li Renqian's appreciation, seemed to have been poured a basin of cold water, glanced at Li Renqian with resentment, and still answered his question: "He, that kind of family, doesn't dare to come out to meet people without Huang Lu." ”
Li Renqian said silently in his heart: It seems that Huang Lu is more advanced than Orange Lu. He continued to talk quietly: "Then what about the teacher and other students on that stage?"
Yang Tao pointed to the test venue that had been vacated in the center of the square and said, "You see, many students are still black and brown, and there are not many red ones. Teacher, I only know that the Great Elder's blue spirit has reached a bottleneck for many years, and the other mentors are at least green spirits. ”
Li Renqian was confused. But following the place he pointed, he saw a half-meter-high water tank placed in the central area, and each student who took out the soul card and gently completed the test with a stroke of the water tank. After a few seconds, the water in the tank will change color, and it will be black and brown. Li Renqian took out his soul card and said worriedly: "This is a test with a light stroke, will it be inaccurate?"
Yang Tao laughed when he heard this, "How can it not be allowed? This card can be made in no other place than the Cang Soul Academy, and there are old immortals in the academy who have studied this thing all day long." As soon as we get it, we will be able to record our spiritual power immediately. Once the mark is established, it cannot be smeared or altered. This spiritual water test is also, the sensitivity to spiritual power is 100%, and it is absolutely impossible to be inaccurate. ”
"What do you mean......" Li Renqian suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "This card only holds the spiritual power of the first person who got him, and if a second person gets it later, it will not be erased?"
Yang Tao nodded, looked at Li Renqian's relieved expression, and asked strangely, "What's wrong?"
"Isn't the academy worried about someone losing it or finding it by someone else?"
"If you lose it, you can make it up, and it's just more money to send another one. If you pick it up, it's nothing, it's not that the cultivator gets this useless...... If a cultivator picks it up, he has it himself, and at most he will be assigned to a more advanced class if he takes someone else's. If you don't have enough spiritual power, it is not necessarily good to study advanced classes. This cultivator knows it. After Yang Tao finished speaking casually, he suddenly patted Li Renqian on the shoulder, "Hey, I said that you are bored at home all day long? This is the basic common sense of coming here to enroll, didn't the admission letter be written?"
Li Renqian said in his heart, I am 108,000 miles away from your admission letter, how do I know. But on the surface, he still said: "I didn't pay attention to it when I got it, thank you Yang." After speaking, he pinched the soul card in his hand vigorously.
Seeing that the venue for the spiritual power test is getting closer and closer, whether you can pass the test depends on whether this soul card you picked up can bring you a surprise.
