45. Chapter 45
Knock...... Knock......
"Who's knocking on the door?!" The night was quieter, and Xia Qinglian, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed and cultivating, was awakened by a knock on the door.
"Qinglian, it's me!" Du Long's soft voice sounded outside the door, and Xia Qinglian's beautiful face suddenly surged with a red tide, and she secretly wondered in her heart: 'It's so late, what is the matter with the son?'
No matter what Du Long was going to do looking for Qinglian, it was estimated that she would not be surprised, got out of bed and came to the door of the room, opened the door, and could see Du Long looking at him with an excited smile by the faint candlelight.
"Childe, it's late at night, what are you looking for Qinglian?!" Xia Qinglian asked a little shyly.
Du Long didn't notice the strangeness on Xia Qinglian's face, grinned, then flashed into the side room, sat down directly at the head of the bed, and beckoned to her with a smile: "Qinglian, bolt the door quickly, come and talk!"
Hearing his words, Xia Qinglian hesitated for a long time before closing the door and bolting it, and walked to the head of the bed with a red face.
"Qinglian, come, sit here and talk!" Du Long excitedly took her slightly stiff jade hand and motioned for her to sit next to him.
"Anyway, sooner or later, I will be the son of the child, since this is the case, there is not much difference between early and late, right?!" Xia Qinglian sat down hard, and at the same time, she made a decision in her heart.
It's a pity, she obviously wanted to be crooked, only to see Du Long reach out and take out a jade bottle from his arms and shake it, and said excitedly: "Qinglian, guess what's in here?!"
Looking at the young man who had no trace of evil thoughts on his face and his eyes were extremely pure, Xia Qinglian obviously knew that she wanted to be crooked, so she blushed and lowered her head and whispered: "Childe, how can people guess what is in the bottle!"
"Haha, I'm not going to tease you! This is a first-grade spiritual liquid, which I just refined! Come, Qinglian, you take it and see how the medicine works!"
"A grade of spiritual liquid?!" Xia Qinglian replied with some consternation, and then thought that Du Long said that he had refined it himself, so she was dumbfounded on the spot, and her beautiful eyes stared at the young man in front of her in surprise, and finally knew why he wanted to buy three copies of a grade of spiritual liquid medicinal materials during the day.
"This is Childe's own refining?!"
"Well, I've been practicing the art of refining elixir recently, and I've made a little mistake, I tried it just now, and I actually succeeded in refining a first-grade spiritual liquid, no, the first thing I thought of was you, whose strength had reached the early stage of the ninth order of Yunqi! Just with the help of the spiritual liquid, let's see if I can break through the cyclone level! Why don't you quickly accept the spiritual liquid!" Du Long said proudly, getting close to Xia Qinglian, and he was not afraid that she would know the secret of refining medicine.
"Childe, this elixir is so valuable, Qinglian can't accept it!" In Xia Qinglian's heart, the kindness owed to Dulong Gongzi can't be repaid, how can she still accept such a valuable thing, she waved her hand on the spot and refused.
"Qinglian, if you are so polite to Childe, I won't take you out in the future!" Du Long deliberately stared at him with a straight face and threatened.
Obviously, his threat played a role, and Xia Qinglian, who was extremely dependent on Du Long, naturally hoped to be able to follow him forever, and after hesitating for a while, she could only respond softly: "That...... In this life and this life, Qinglian is willing to serve the son as a slave and a maidservant, and I hope that the son will not want Qinglian ......"
"Fool!" Du Long gently stretched out his hand and scratched the tip of her nose and smiled: "Remember, don't leak the fact that I can refine the elixir, hurry up and take the spiritual liquid! Break through the cyclone step as soon as possible, and we will go to the world together in the future!"
"Hmm! Qinglian will definitely work hard to improve her cultivation, so that she can help her son in the future!"
"Okay! You continue to cultivate, I'll go back to my room!"
Looking at Du Long's figure with a grateful face, Xia Qinglian sent it all the way to the door, and stood for a long time, before she sighed lightly and bolted the door back to her bed.
staring at the jade bottle in her hand stupidly, she unscrewed the cap for a long time, and suddenly a fragrance wafted in the chamber......
Haotian Empire, Royal Academy!
The day of the annual freshman enrollment has finally arrived, and at the gate of the college, which is full of bookish atmosphere, there are constantly admitted freshmen rushing to sign up, most of the freshmen are accompanied by their families, and the children of the family can be admitted to the Royal Academy, which is a great joy!
Du Long, Du Caini and Xia Qinglian came to the Royal Academy in a carriage with the Du badge together, and today Mrs. Du Zhou Ruoxue did not accompany them to sign up, knowing that her baby son was finally admitted to the Martial Arts Department of the Royal Academy at the age of sixteen, she completely let go of the burden in her heart, but she was not so concerned.
"Agui, you go back first!" the three of them got out of the carriage, and Du Long said to Agui, the servant who had brought him to the academy.
"Young master, the little one will go back first, and I will come to pick you up and the two young ladies back to the house during the college vacation!"
"Let's go! Xiaofeng, a few of them are at the registration point! It's just us!" Du Caini looked at Princess Huofeng and the others at the registration point with a smile, and it was indeed just the three of them.
Today is the enrollment of new students, although the Royal Academy is lively, but it is not comparable to ten days ago, when more than 10,000 people came from all over the country to sign up, which can be described as a sea of people!
After various examinations and tests, the number of people who can be admitted to the Royal Academy today is less than three hundred, and the number of people in the martial arts department that Du Long signed up for is the smallest, only sixty freshmen.
At the beginning, the test that Du Long participated in belonged to the test of the privileged class, and thirty places were admitted every year, and then there were young martial cultivators from all over the country who competed for another thirty martial arts cultivators.
It can be said that the competition for non-privileged places is fierce!
Surrounded by everyone, Du Long and Xia Qinglian went to the registration point of the Martial Arts Department to report, and after making the record and receiving the school card and dormitory key by the way, they left the registration point, and everyone walked towards the inside of the academy together.
"Haha! Du Long, we actually live in the same dormitory, four people live in each dormitory, I don't know where the other two guys are!" Embracing Du Long enthusiastically, Yue Xiaoshan immediately smiled after seeing the room number 041 on the dormitory keychain in his hand.
"Qinglian, what's your dormitory number?" Du Long turned his head to Xia Qinglian and asked.
"My dormitory number is Building 231!" Xia Qinglian replied softly after looking at the keychain.
"Who of you lives with Qinglian?!" Du Long asked the Fire Phoenix Princess and the daughters.
"No, it's not a big deal, just let the other people in my dormitory change with her when the time comes!" Princess Huofeng waved her hand indifferently, and it was estimated that no one would dare not give face when she came forward!
When the group walked to the fork in the road of the boys' and girls' dormitories, Du Caini, an old fritter of the Royal Academy, said: "Let's separate here, gather here at lunch time, and then go to the academy's dining hall to eat together!"
Everyone responded one after another, and then divided into two groups, Du Long and Yue Xiaoshan walked towards the boys' dormitory area with a smile, and the girls walked towards the girls' dormitory area at the other end.
"Du Long, I really envy you! At the age of sixteen, you reached the ninth order of Yunqi! and joined the martial arts department of the Royal Academy!" Yue Xiaoshan said with envy on the way towards the boys' dormitory.
"What's there to envy about this? aren't you coming in too?!" Dulong wondered.
"I'll be nineteen years old after the New Year, fortunately, I can successfully squeeze into the Royal Academy this year, otherwise, if I can't squeeze in next year, I'm afraid that my Yue Xiaoshan will be in danger!"
The percentage of successful admission at the age of sixteen in the entire Royal Academy every year is very low, and this year, just you and Princess Fire Phoenix, and everyone else is at least over seventeen years old!"
"Oh, I see!" Du Long replied nonchalantly.
"You ......" Yue Xiaoshan was speechless for his distraction, and finally could only shake his head and continue to speak: "However, I heard that the competition among non-privileged students is particularly fierce this year, and there is still a genius martial cultivator, who is only eighteen years old, and has actually reached the strength of the first order of the cyclone! It seems that he is the first person in our class of freshmen!"
“......”
The two chatted while walking, and did not forget to carefully observe the house numbers of each dormitory building along the way, and after finding the row of dormitories starting with 0, they walked all the way inside, looking for dormitory 041 where they lived.
The Royal Academy is located on the southern outskirts of the capital, unlike the interior of the capital, where land is free, so both the dormitories and classrooms are spacious!
"Haha! It's finally here, this is the No. 041 dormitory where we will live in the next few years!" Finally finding a place, Yue Xiaoshan didn't care about continuing to chat with Du Long, and rushed towards the door of dormitory No. 041 with an excited face.
Inserting the key in his hand into the lock hole of the dormitory door, and easily unscrewing the door lock, Yue Xiaoshan turned around and said hello to Du Long and rushed in first.
Looking at the excited good brother, Du Long could only shake his head helplessly and follow in!
