Chapter 6, Elle College
After just four days, the vitality fluctuations on Zhu Xiao's body finally disappeared without a trace, this time, those who looked down on Zhu Xiao before behaved more and more rampantly, and even Zhu Heng was affected. Many people of the Zhu clan were secretly talking about Zhu Heng being deceived for Zhu Xiao, and those people were directly sneering when they saw Zhu Xiao, and they couldn't help but show all kinds of looks when they saw Zhu Heng.
Over the years, Zhu Xiao has seen all kinds of cynicism, although this wave is more violent than ever, but Zhu Xiao is unmoved, and he still cultivates as before. But after this kind of cynicism spread to Zhu Heng, Zhu Xiao couldn't stand it anymore.
A month has passed in a blink of an eye, and the turmoil caused by the Han Pin incident has gradually calmed down, even if it is occasionally talked about, it is only reduced to a joke after dinner, and not so many people care about it.
The days passed day by day, and Zhu Xiao, who was not frightened, gradually became a little worried, this time it was not because of other people's eyes, but because the time was about to come, this was a time to determine Zhu Xiao's future, but in fact, Zhu Xiao's future was not affected by Zhu Xiao, as if it had been decided at the moment Zhu Xiao was born.
"Ah! My fate is up to me! I don't believe it, I can't cultivate in this twenty-year period, this time, even if I fight to the death, I will become a warrior by that time!" Zhu Xiao was calm and calm when he practiced before, but this time Zhu Xiao had too much depression in his heart, and Zhu Xiao, who was sitting on the stone, directly raised his head to the sky and roared.
For Zhu Xiao, many things that seem to others to be very likely have become a little unlikely when they come to him, all because of Zhu Xiao's body, a body that can't be cultivated at all!
The Zhu clan holds a clan assembly every four years, and all people from the Zhu clan will participate in this clan assembly. The purpose of this clan assembly is very simple, that is, to review the strength of the younger generation of the Zhu clan, and select those with high cultivation talent to focus on training, while those who have no cultivation talent will be sent to other places like exile, like a subordinate to run business for the family. Of course, doing business for the family is just a rhetoric, in fact, this part of the people are abandoned by the family, once they leave the protection of the family, they will be quickly killed, and it is difficult for one out of a hundred to survive. What's even more ironic is that most of these people were not killed by outsiders, in order to protect the face of the family, most of these people were killed by an assassination organization in the family!
In this quadrennial clan conference, young people between the ages of sixteen and twenty, to be precise, young people between the ages of fourteen and twenty-two can participate, as long as the strength of the samurai reaches the level of this clan conference, then you can become the key training object of the family, and from then on it can be said that it is a step to the sky, of course, it is death. For the sake of fairness, the focus of the annual assessment is between the ages of sixteen and twenty, and the part between the ages of fourteen and sixteen is just to not let go of those young people with outstanding talents, and the part of people between the ages of twenty and twenty-two, even if they can be selected, are still people with ordinary talents, and they will only earn money for the family in the future.
Each Zhu clan member can participate in two clan conferences, and Zhu Xiao held a clan meeting when he was fourteen years old, but Zhu Xiao did not participate, because even if he participated, it would only be self-inflicted. But this time, Zhu Xiao was eighteen years old, but this time he had to participate. Otherwise, Zhu Xiao will be directly excluded from the Zhu family, and at that time, no matter whose son Zhu Xiao is, he will inevitably die.
Cultivating from a single stage of Yuan Qi to a ninth stage of Yuan Qi in two years, and then breaking through the Nine Duan Yuan Qi to become a samurai, this kind of speed can only be achieved by some extremely talented people. Zhu Yong was the most talented person in the Zhu clan for decades, but he had a period of vitality at the age of four, and even if he did, he did not become a warrior until he was eleven years old. Zhu Yong had a period of vitality when he was four years old, and he only began to cultivate at the age of seven, that is to say, it took Zhu Yong four full years to go from a martial artist with a period of vitality to a warrior. Now Zhu Xiao has no vitality in his body, and wanting to become a samurai in two years is tantamount to a fool's dream. It's no wonder that Zhu Xiao couldn't calm down so much at this time.
Zhu Xiao is not afraid of death, what Zhu Xiao is worried about is what will happen to Zhu Heng after he dies! After losing Zhu Xiao's mother, Zhu Heng rarely laughed, once he lost Zhu Xiao, Zhu Heng would definitely collapse. For Zhu Heng, Zhu Xiao is the meaning of him holding up this sky, once Zhu Xiao is dead, there is no need for Zhu Heng to hold up this sky anymore.
Zhu Xiao, who was sitting on the stone, couldn't sit still anymore at this time, and slowly stood up. Just as Zhu Xiao stood up, a black shadow rushed towards this side at a terrifying speed. Zhu Xiao looked at the person in surprise, sighed lightly, and then said to himself with some puzzlement: "Why did he come here? What happened?"
The person who came was Zhu Lie, and this person was also from Zhu Xiao's generation, but he didn't sneer at Zhu Xiao like others, what he was most interested in was cultivation, this character was similar to Zhu Qing, and even compared to Zhu Qing, I was obsessed with cultivation, and I didn't care about other things in the family.
"Brother Zhu Lie, why did you come here, is there something wrong?"
Zhu Lie looked at Zhu Xiao and smiled slightly, and after glancing at Zhu Xiao, Zhu Lie said with some doubts: "Brother Zhu Xiao, I heard that you have received help from a master, why don't you have vitality fluctuations in your body now?"
The other people in the family must have been sarcastic about Zhu Xiao when they said this, but this person was different, he said this completely because he didn't know. He was so obsessed with cultivation that even if something happened in the family, he wouldn't know about it.
Zhu Xiao briefly said about Han Pin, Zhu Lie simply said an "oh", and then Zhu Lie began to scratch his head in great distress, and after a while he said with a smile: "I remember now, the patriarch is invited, and the patriarch asked me to tell you to go directly to the council hall, as if the three elders are waiting for you there." ”
Zhu Lie's usual time is spent on cultivation, and it is ambiguous for him to convey a word. Zhu Xiao nodded and said, "I know, Brother Zhu Lie, do you want to go back with me?"
Zhu Lie shook his head and said excitedly: "Brother Zhu Xiao, you really know how to choose a place, this place is very suitable for cultivation, I think I should cultivate here now! Anyway, the patriarch just asked me to call you back, and didn't let me go back with you, you go back quickly!"
Although Zhu Xiao couldn't cultivate, Zhu Heng usually paid attention to Zhu Xiao's training, and with Zhu Xiao's agility, he returned to his courtyard not long after. When Zhu Xiao went to the courtyard, he found that Zhu Heng was actually drinking in the room. Zhu Xiao opened the door and walked in directly, and said with some confusion: "Father, didn't you ask Brother Zhu Lie to call me back? Why are you here?"
"I didn't call you this time, it was those three old guys who let us pass! I don't know what these three old immortals want to do?" Zhu Heng muttered, and then walked towards the meeting hall with Zhu Xiao.
The three elders had been waiting in the hall of consciousness for a long time, Zhu Heng walked to the chief and sat down, it seemed that he was disturbed by drinking, Zhu Heng's face was very bad, and after sitting down, he asked the great elder next to him lightly: "I don't know why the great elder called my father and son to come?"
The Great Elder gently put down the jade cup in his hand and said, "This time, the second and third children have something to discuss with Young Master Zhu Xiao, we are afraid that the patriarch will not be at ease, so we let you come with you." ”
Zhu Heng had a sneering smile on his face, slowly turned his head to the second elder, and asked lightly, "Oh, why did the second elder become so modest today, don't you usually talk to Xiao'er?"
The second elder's face changed, and he said with a smile, "Don't dare", and added: "Patriarch, I believe you should know about ......Elle Academy, right?
"Second Elder, you are presumptuous!" Zhu Heng's face changed drastically, and he didn't care about the second elder or not, so he shouted angrily.
Elle College is one of the top business schools in the mainland, and it definitely has a transcendent status on the mainland. In fact, the name Elle College is not called much on the mainland, and people are more accustomed to using another name - "the treasury of the mainland", which is probably the best portrayal of Elle College.
Entering the Elle Academy to study the way of competition in the shopping mall, almost every big family will send some people to this Elle Academy to learn the way of doing business, it seems that the three elders want Zhu Xiao to enter this academy this time. It's no wonder that Zhu Heng is so angry, such a continent where the weak eat the strong, but others will not respect you just because you can do business.
When it comes to Elle Academy, I am afraid that we have to mention Zhongtian Academy, which has the same reputation as it, but this Zhongtian Academy is a Yuan Qi Academy, not a business school like Elle Academy. This Elle Academy and Zhongtian Academy have the same reputation, but many people want to enter Zhongtian Academy to study, but few people are willing to study in this Elle Academy.
When he heard the name of Elle Academy, Zhu Xiao's heart froze, Zhu Heng was willing to do anything for Zhu Xiao, Zhu Xiao would do anything for Zhu Heng, even if it was more difficult to study in this Elle Academy than death, as long as he could help his father Zhu Heng, then Zhu Xiao would be willing to do anything.
"Hmph, Zhu Heng, why are you so unenlightened? Zhu Xiao is already a person who is destined to not be able to cultivate, do you want to watch him die? As long as he enters this Elle Academy, he will be able to help manage the family in the future. Zhu Heng's anger made the second elder stunned, but the third elder, who had never dared to talk to Zhu Heng, was also furious at this time, and actually stood up and confronted Zhu Heng.
