Chapter 160: Cruel Screening
The situation on the mainland tends to stabilize, the mountain collar on the right track runs on its own step by step, and Hudson, who is idle, spends his days at home with his wife and children.
If career achievements aside, the twenty-somethings are obsessed with enjoying life, and he is
The negative teaching material of "not thinking of progress". The reality is quite the opposite, and Hudson is the poster child of a good husband.
Frankly, the definition of a good husband in Aslant is really low. Anyway, Hudson didn't dare to claim this title, and his lovers were all raised at home, so he couldn't get along with a good husband.
In this regard, Hudson has to thank his father-in-law, it is the flowers he plays with in his old age that have influenced Melissa's concept, and he has a good life now.
Out of gratitude to the Earl of Oran, Hudson specially ordered a batch of physical recovery potions for men and sent them over, which his old man could not handle.
Reality perfectly confirms the sentence: "When the world is sick and you are alone and normal, then you must be sick!" "The Soldier Academy has been established, and several undeveloped hills near the Black Rock Mountains have become the stationing places of the Academy.
The school building and the teaching building were built by the students themselves. It's not that Hudson wants to save money, it's that teenagers at this age are already working in the family.
The aristocratic children showed a little difficulty, but under the supervision of the mentors, they still successfully completed the task.
It is useless to complain about being tired, since the establishment of the academy, it has adopted a fully closed militarized management. It's good to make a fuss and give it a beating.
From the moment they stepped through the gates, they were part of the reserves. Here, everyone's identity is a student, and all personal files are sealed, and they are receiving the same education regardless of their background.
Cultural lessons: reading and literacy, loyalty to the lord; Martial Arts Class: Basic training for knights. In the early stages, the training of knights and warriors is the same, all of which is physical exercise.
Only when the physical strength reaches a certain stage can one enter the next step of cultivation. Whether they will go the knight route or the warrior route in the future depends entirely on their performance in the academy.
Qualifications are an important factor in future development, but they are not the only one. Theoretically, students with inferior qualifications will also have a chance to get it if they work hard enough
"Life Essence" to become a knight. In the continent of Aslanth, most of the children of the nobility crossed the threshold of knighthood at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and after that it was a watershed.
Geniuses quickly distanced themselves from their peers, and in the following decades, they ushered in a period of rapid growth in personal strength.
Everyone awakens the seeds of life at an age, naturally not because of the basic training, but because the natural growth of the body has not kept up.
If the physical development does not keep up, the early awakening of the seed of life will affect the future development potential. If you awaken the life seed too late, you will waste the period of rapid growth of strength.
After countless years of exploration, everyone came to the conclusion that fifteen or sixteen years old is the best to awaken the seed of life.
For many people in the academy, the optimal awakening period has actually been missed, but it doesn't matter at all.
It's not a batch training of strong people, and the upper limit of their personal potential will not affect them to become an excellent soldier.
Today is a special day, the first round of assessments since the entrance is about to begin, and it also means the start of the knockout round.
It can't be said that Jackie Chan will watch this wave, but those who were eliminated in the first round are basically limited to the bottom in their future lives.
In order to show his attention, Mr. Hudson, as the president of the college, personally came to preside over the assessment. Because of the different positioning, the assessment and elimination standards of the two academies of the Demon Martial Arts are completely different.
The Knight Academy is nominally training soldiers, but in fact it is training grassroots officers, and the main focus is one
"Strict". Cultural courses and martial arts courses account for 20% and 80% respectively, and the comprehensive score is calculated, and a 10% elimination system is implemented.
The Academy of Magic is different, there is no fixed elimination quota, as long as you can become a magical migrant worker, you can stay and continue your studies.
As far as Hudson knew, some of the Academy's top pharmaceutical students were now able to make simple potions.
It is estimated that after a few more months of training, he will be a qualified magic apprentice and contribute to the pharmaceutical industry in the territory.
If you don't have a pharmaceutical talent, as long as your cultivation speed reaches the standard, you can also stay and continue to study. It can be seen that everyone has worked hard.
After the first round of assessment, only three people were eliminated on the side of the Magic Academy. The Knight Academy is very cruel, no matter how hard they usually try, ten percent of the cadets will leave.
For the students who entered the academy, this is the place that will change their future destiny. finally stepped out of the original circle and saw a different scenery, who is willing to leave so dejected?
More than 90% of the students are their only chance here. Even if it is a noble child, once he is eliminated here, it will be difficult to get a second chance in the future.
The world is realistic, and no one is going to put limited resources into a loser. Unless all the heirs in front of them are hung up, they don't want to get resources from their families.
Frankly, this assessment is not fair. The original family is different, and everyone's foundation is different.
Just because everyone enrolls together doesn't mean they're on the same starting line. Many children of the nobility completed the basic training of knights before entering the school and joined the Soldier Academy.
If the children of the little nobles have only one or two brothers and sisters, it is fine, but if they have many brothers and sisters like Hudson, if they want to get a share of the life essence, they also have to compete.
Baron Redman is within a radius of dozens of miles, and he can be considered to be a good mix, and the fact that Sur has to make a move to Hudson for a life essence is enough to explain the problem.
Because of the competition for cultivation resources, it is not uncommon for brothers to turn their faces in the aristocratic world. One step to heaven, one step to hell.
Born into a noble family, no one wants to be reduced to a commoner. The emergence of the Mountain Leader Soldier Academy made countless little nobles who were suffering from the lack of life essence see the opportunity and sent their children in one after another.
Although it seemed to them that it was a great shame to compete with the children of serfs, no one thought that their own children would lose.
Since you can win, there is no need to worry about it. Many people even think that Hudson arranged so many people to come in to accompany them just to add pressure to their juniors and stimulate their potential.
Judging from the students' grades, the gap is also very large. The children of the aristocracy who had the first-mover advantage almost swept the front rankings.
"Everyone performed very well in this assessment, and as a reward, I decided: students who have reached the age of fifteen, ranked in the top 20% of their grades, and completed the basic training of knights, will be granted the qualification to exchange life essence in advance. Since none of you have any contribution points in your hands, as long as you are willing to join the Snow Moon Knights to serve for twenty years, you can get a Life Essence. Hudson said with a smile.
From the first day of the freshman's enrollment, he knew the calculations of the nobles. But the thugs who send them to the door don't have to be in vain.
Without the contributions of these guys, his knights don't know what year it would have been able to assemble. If Hudson hadn't deliberately released the water, there wouldn't have been so many noble children.
Nominally, everyone's age is 12~18, but those guys with stubble beards are inevitably too old.
Some of these older youths, not to mention 18 years old, I am afraid that some are even more than 28 years old. Under normal circumstances, they have been like this for the rest of their lives.
Joining the Soldier Academy is already the last fight of these people. The only reason why they can change their age and get in is because their family is related to the Coslow family.
In this regard, Hudson is very face-giving. No matter which branch recommended the person, as long as the background is innocent and there is no entanglement among the major forces, he will accept it all.
Limited by vision, the value in everyone's eyes is unequal. In Hudson's view, the life essence is just an ordinary magic potion, which can be mass-produced on a small scale if he wants to.
In the eyes of the little nobles, the essence of life becomes priceless. Hudson gave this valuable strategic resource to this group of overage children who have no development potential, that is, for the sake of everyone being relatives.
Distant relatives are also relatives, and the treatment of one's own people is higher than that of outsiders. Including in the academy, Hudson is also instilling in the cadets
The concept of "own people". The aristocratic students who are related to the family are their own people, and the students who are from the people are also their own people.
The effect was very obvious, and the teenagers were stunned for a moment, and looked at Lord Hudson's eyes, which were full
"Worship". The older young people in the students are more rational, but in the face of the essence of life, they still have no resistance.
The favor is sold, and the thugs are there. The potential is not potential, it is a secondary factor, at least in a short period of time Hudson has a group of more hitters.
Now let's see how many of these students who have completed the basic training of knights can successfully awaken the seed of life.
It doesn't matter if you fail, you can give your life to Lord Hudson as well as a fighter. With a batch of war horses, you can also enter the knights to make up the number.
Of course, under the influence of the cultivation system, even a warrior who rode a war horse was far inferior to a knight in combat effectiveness.
To distinguish the strength and weakness of a knight's combat power, you can roughly count it by directly looking at the proportion of the number of knights in it.
Seeing the group of students who were boiling with emotion, pretending to be calm in front of themselves in order to maintain the dignity of the nobility, Hudson smiled even more happily.
Obviously, this investment will definitely not be lost. What people are most afraid of is that they have no desire, and these guys in front of them are so obsessed with aristocratic status, they are undoubtedly a group of excellent workers.
If you don't cut off the heads of a hundred orc soldiers, if you want to get nobility, dream about it! If he wanted to get a fief, Hudson felt that he could target five hundred beheadings.
The military merits of the orc royal family and ordinary orcs are calculated at 1:10. Specifically, it can also be further subdivided according to different orc races and identity strength.
Anyway, the Alpha Kingdom itself is a military merit title system, and he just digitizes the standards. These flatbreads were for the knights.
Theoretically, with a lot of personal strength and a little luck, it's possible to achieve your goals.
Specifically, you can go on an expeditionary legion, follow Hudson from the west to the east, and kill more than 100 soldiers of different races, which also abounds.
Considering the bonus of killing the enemy's generals, if there is a perfect military merit conversion system, there are many knights who can collect five hundred beast head merits.
Of course, these people also get what they want. Although the location of the fiefdom was not ideal, it still crossed the hierarchy after all.
The deeper he thought about it, the more Hudson felt that the Qin Dynasty's twentieth level military merits were powerful. The institutionalized reward criteria are clear, covering everyone in the military.
One step at a time, each soldier is able to see hope for further progress. In comparison, the Alpha Kingdom's military merit system is too rough.
If you have made great contributions, you can indeed become a nobleman. But for most ordinary soldiers, it is simply impossible to kill hundreds of orc soldiers.
The painted flatbread was completely for the children of the nobility. When you take a private army to the battlefield to fight, the battle power is recorded on one person's head, and the probability of standing out is naturally high.
This set of rules for safeguarding the interests of the aristocratic group involves the entire aristocratic group, and Hudson naturally can't break it, but he still wants to try it if he makes detailed changes within the rule system.
Come to think of it, Hudson didn't act blindly. The Qin Dynasty's military merit title system was implemented along with the farming and warfare system.
This is obviously in contradiction with the serfdom system that is the mainstream of the current society. Any reform that touches the fundamental aspects of the social production system cannot be easily accomplished.
If you can't force it forward, you can only work around. Hudson didn't have a clue how to do it for a while, anyway, this kind of thing is very troublesome.
"Duke, these are the list of eliminated cadets, do you want to ......" Before Kane finished speaking, Hudson waved his hand and said: "These things are all part of the daily teaching, you just need to watch and do it." That's it, this is the first assessment, and the standards are slightly relaxed. After subtracting the number of people who have obtained the life essence, the total number of places will be eliminated, and then 10% will be eliminated! "Someone needs to be evil.
It can't be Hudson, the lord, then it can only be other high-ranking people in the academy. Vice President, Dean of Academic Affairs...... The appointment of them to important positions is not to let them be peach and plum all over the world, but to solve problems in a practical way.
But Hudson's hand finally loosened. Kick out these students who have obtained the life essence, and then eliminate the bottom ten percent, and at least 500 students have escaped for the time being.
However, this luck only happens once. If they don't roll up in the next three months, they will be on the next batch of elimination lists.
is also eliminated, for a group of serf-born students, every additional support is an opportunity.
While leaving the academy, they also take with them the fruits of their learning. Whether it is cultural knowledge or physical fitness improved during training, it is a valuable asset.
After a few more periods, even if they are eliminated, the second-tier legion will rush to ask for it. People who have received basic training as knights, both in terms of personal physical strength and combat experience, are much stronger than ordinary people.
The Soldiers' Academy, naturally, has to train soldiers. Those who were eliminated were all soldiers trained by Hudson, and those who remained last were officers.
At the end of the three-year study period, Hudson would look for opportunities to send the seedlings with development potential to the ordinary army as officers.
Unlike the officers of the past, they only need to follow orders. They also have the responsibility of garrisoning overseas strongholds to defend against orc invasions.
…… With Hudson's departure, the campus presented a scene of joy and sorrow, and countless people stared at the announcement on the wall.
Ranked in the top 20 percent, the students who are eligible to apply for the life essence are scolding Fang Xuan one by one, as if they are close at hand.
On the other side, the students at the bottom of the rankings stood on the spot one by one, completely unable to believe that they had been eliminated.
"Impossible!"
"It can't be!"
"Wow......" I don't know who took the lead, and in the blink of an eye, there was a cry on campus. Especially those students whose grades just happened to be eliminated, they were crying the most at the moment.
It's just a little bit closer, if I work harder, it's a different situation now. However, no matter how sad you cry, you can't change the fact that you have been eliminated.
The students who were close to the score line and were lucky enough to stay in school were secretly complaining about their misery while remaining after the disaster. There is not much time left for them to work hard.
If you don't want to leave in disgrace, you have to do your best for the next three months. The problem is that they have to work hard, and others are not idle.
Witnessing former classmates being eliminated from the competition is a nerve stimulation for everyone. Even the students who were still in high spirits just now, under the influence of the sad atmosphere, restrained their smiles at this moment.
Getting the essence of life is only the first step, if they can't awaken the seed of life, their future situation will not be much better.
Theoretically, as long as there are enough resources to pile up, even if there are no qualifications, it is enough to pile up a knight, but the price to pay is very staggering.
Resource-based players, who have nothing to do with them. There is only one choice left for them, and failure means that the knighthood dream is shattered.
Looking at the crying students, the faces of the instructors were also gloomy and terrifying. They all came out of the bottom and knew very well how important this opportunity was to the students in front of them.
But there is no way, the world is cruel, and there will be students to leave from here eventually.
"Don't wail!"
"One by one, they cheered me up, and even if I wanted to leave, I had to straighten my waist and walk out of here. There is still a long way to go in life, and the methods of basic training have been handed over to you, and you can still practice on your own after you go back. If the Duke wants to open up the Snow Moon Territory, there will definitely be a war next. As long as you have made a contribution on the battlefield, why worry about no chance! Tutor Felix reprimanded in a serious tone.
He didn't want these students to sink here, even if the road ahead would be more and more difficult after leaving here, but as long as they went on, there would be hope.
This group of tutors in the academy is the best example, except for a few lucky ones who are from noble backgrounds, the rest are all killed all the way from Hudson's birth to death.
Most of them, before becoming knights, were not even exposed to orthodox knightly training.
It was completely trained in the army, and his physical fitness reached the standard of awakening the seed of life, and he happened to have made enough merits to obtain the reward of the essence of life.
Compared with simple knight training, those of them who crawled out of the pile of dead people, after taking the life essence, the probability of awakening the life seed is much higher than that of ordinary people.
"Mentor Felix, can we really do it?" A thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy asked uncertainly.
"I don't know!"
"According to your current state, I think it's better to go home and farm, the army is really not suitable for you. If you can strengthen your convictions, after leaving here, you will immediately go to the army to report and continue to insist on training, and there will always be hope for the future. In terms of proportion, about two percent of the elite legions in the territory have awakened the seeds of life without being trained by knights! Felix said in a low tone.
