Chapter 34: What Are You Doing?
It was early autumn. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The triennial event of Shanghe City was officially held in the huge square in front of Lanfeng Academy.
As the only public institution in the Han Empire, every enrollment of the college attracted countless young men and women to participate and test.
It's a pity that under the cruel rules, the vast majority of people are destined to be blocked out of the academy.
Just before the sun rose, the square was already crowded with people, until the middle of the morning, as a sword aura of light shot out from the academy, a voice was like Huang Zhong Dalu: "The hour has come." ”
The test for admissions has officially begun.
Lanfeng Academy is very different from other private colleges, not only do you not have to pay money, but you can also get paid according to your contribution and potential. After coming out, they can be directly distributed into the three systems of the imperial military, government, and academia, and get a high reward.
For poor students, the attraction of this article alone is too great.
Those private institutions often charge thousands of tuition fees every year, not to mention poor and lowly students, even ordinary rich families are also very difficult to bear. Of course, these private institutions also use the same system as Lanfeng Academy, and they can get paid for their contributions. Those with great potential can even get free training from the university.
It's just that the way out after they come out is much narrower, except for some very outstanding ones that can be directly absorbed by big sects and big forces, most of them can only be personal bodyguards, guards and even servants.
The square can accommodate 100,000 people, but it is far from satisfying the large number of young men and women who come to the test.
However, the first level of the test stopped most people.
On the wide front steps of the school gate, there are a hundred buffaloes made of igneous rock, each weighing 3,000 catties, that is, the power of three oxen. Only those who have lifted this stone ox are eligible to step through the gates of the Lanfeng Academy and participate in the official test inside.
The four of Bai Yu were mixed in the countless crowds.
"Why did the rules change this time? My brother took the test last time, and the weight of the stone ox was only two and a half oxen, and the strength of my three bulls should be enough to lift it! However, now it has become the power of three bulls! Oh my God, if my father knew, how disappointed he would be!"
"Yours is not wronged, what I tested in the temple is the talent under the six grades! If I had been able to take the official exam in previous years! I hate that the sky has no eyes, and I have made my family so poor that I can't even pay a little tuition, I can't enter the Enlightenment School for further study, and I can't even lift the power of the three bulls......"
"Look, the one who passed through is from the Radical Academy! I know! Several people in his village pooled money for him to go to school, just waiting for him to enter Lanfeng Academy to enjoy the blessings!"
"We're in a cold place—it's difficult!"
Those who failed the test were disappointed, and many of them wept bitterly and wept, desperately begging those who took the test to give them another chance, but unfortunately there was only one chance.
In this way, they waited from early in the morning to evening, and when the sunset faded the last trace of brilliance and the sky fell into darkness, it was the turn of the four of Bai Yu.
Without any doubt, the four of them each lifted the stone ox, put it down after supporting it for three breaths as required, and entered the gate with the number plate that passed.
The assessment does not allow them to wear courage beads, but they have no impact on the lack of strength, because of the work of most of the month, their strength has increased again.
The first round of tests,One out of a hundred,The test of strength alone excluded the vast majority of poor students.,At a glance,The people walking inside the gate of the college are rich children in brocade clothes.。。
Poor and rich in martial arts, no matter when and where, since ancient times.
However, this level is also the fairest. The stairs of the school climbed twelve floors, and everyone who took the test was in front of everyone. All those who didn't pass had nothing to complain about, they could only feel sorry for themselves.
Stepping into Lanfeng Academy, it was as if you had entered two layers of heaven at once!
Bai Yu looked up at the sky in surprise, only to see that there was a bright light in the middle of the sky, but the surroundings were already shrouded in darkness, and even many stars could already be seen beginning to emit mysterious light. It seems to be an independent world here, and it was full of voices just now, but at this time, it can't be transmitted into it at all, as if you are watching a silent drama.
Boom!
Suddenly a bell rang in the sky, as if in the deep mountains and ancient temples, in this silent environment seemed to completely wash people's hearts.
There seemed to be infinite mystery in this voice, faintly whispering in the ears of immortals, as if they wanted to tell the ultimate secrets of the Heavenly Dao.
It's just that when you really listen carefully, it's even more vague and unpredictable.
"Brother Yu, here, it's really mysterious!"
Jia Fang, who has always been very aggressive, also became a lot more cautious, and lowered his voice very low.
Jin Sanpang rolled his purring little eyes, he was already stunned by the magnificent building in front of him, and from time to time he let out exclamations and exclamations in Yao Bingbing's ears. Even though I've been around Upper River City several times, the most prosperous place in Upper River City can't compare to here.
Walking into the front, everyone looked down at the number plate in their hands as they watched the rules of the exam on a huge wall.
There are a total of seven assessments, which are divided into examination rooms according to the header, one of which is the Wen Zong, which is included in the category of separate selection, and once passed, the proportion of the seven comprehensive categories has also increased significantly.
After reading the big rules, Bai Yu looked at the small words below, which was about the categories of assessment points and the basis for admission to the subjects. There is a scoring basis for each test, and there are many categories, with a full score of 1,000 points.
Only then did he know that Lanfeng Academy was not just admitted according to talent and force, as Bai Xiu said.
The college is divided into three departments: military, political and academic.
The army is naturally the army, and those who enter this department to study will be military people in the future. Politics is to enter the court as an official and govern the country and society for the emperor. "Learning" is to train reserve teachers for Lanfeng Academy.
The three departments represent the three pillars of the empire, with the separation of powers and mutual constraints.
The exam cards are randomly distributed, and there is a graphic retrieval on the giant wall in front of them, indicating the examination room corresponding to the exam card.
The exam cards of the four people are different, and there is an indication of the order of the examination room on the back.
In the flow of people, they also began to look for their own examination rooms.
Only when you go deeper do you discover the grandeur of the Lanfeng Academy.
The meandering water is murmuring and smooth, and the dense forest is deep and secluded.
Bai Yu's attention was not here, and the communication with Qi Shengtian for half a year had raised his horizons to a height that ordinary people could hardly reach.
No matter how good a building is, it is built by people, and only those who are strong enough are eligible to enjoy the best resources.
"Brother?"
Just as he was about to enter his examination room, he heard a voice that was both strange and familiar.
Looking sideways and looking back, Bai Yu saw a face full of surprise.
It's Bai Xiu.
If it was in the past, Bai Yu would not hesitate to go up and shout "Brother Xiu" affectionately. But last time Bai Xiu's punch had completely broken his heart, and the brotherly love was gone.
He stopped and looked at Bai Li with an indifferent expression.
The reason why this was so was because he couldn't see any joy and excitement on Bai Li's face, only surprise and incomprehension.
Sure enough, Bai Li hurriedly walked up a few steps, leaned to his side and asked in a low voice, "Why are you also coming to the exam? Don't you know that you don't have any cultivation talent?
I can't come to the test?
Will it be embarrassing?
If it weren't for his younger brother, Bai Yu would want to go back now.
Bai Xiu, don't you know that this is Lanfeng Academy? Where did you get such confidence to think that Lanfeng Academy was opened by your family? Do you think that I am still the same Bai Yu who didn't know how to resist and only knew silent dedication?
Looking at him lightly, without any expression, just like looking at a stranger, Bai Yu turned around and walked towards the examination room after hearing this.
Bai Xiu's face changed, if he hadn't seen his appearance clearly, he would have thought he had recognized the wrong person. Only now did he realize that Bai Yu was a fist taller than him.
