There was no wind and rain last night, and the ducks were counted all night.

Xu Ran didn't understand why the thirteen ducks had to be counted back and forth, maybe there was something in this that he didn't understand?

It was early in the morning again, the door of the national courtyard had been closed, and the girl was okay to say, and the blink of an eye was gone, leaving Xu Ran wandering alone on the long street.

After thinking about it, I still cowered under the stone steps of the gate of the national courtyard and spent the middle of the night.

......

......

The "Morning Awakening Bell" of the National Court rings throughout the Shendu, signifying the beginning of a new day.

Squeak...

The disciple who opened the door looked at the straight young man standing at the bottom of the stone steps, and asked suspiciously, "Who are you?"

"Martial Arts Pavilion student of the National Academy, Xu Ran. ”

The disciple looked up and down carefully: "Xu Ran on the two levels?"

"Exactly. ”

"Why are you outside?"

"This..."

"Do you know that because of you, Wu Ge was ridiculed all day yesterday?"

The disciple's expression was slightly cold: "Yesterday, there were countless applicants for the enrollment of the National Academy, and in the end, thirty-three people successfully entered the Wen Pavilion and one entered the Wu Pavilion. ”

I remember that there were seventy-two candidates who entered the third level yesterday, but I didn't expect that half of them would pass the level, could they all practice?

"You are the only one among all the candidates who cannot practice, and the only one who does not practice in the Martial Pavilion. The disciple sneered: "Since the establishment of the National Academy, you are also the only one who has lost all the face of the Martial Pavilion. ”

Xu Ran was slightly stunned.

"What are you doing in a daze? Hurry in and get your student uniform, look at your appearance, if you let outsiders know that you are a disciple of the National Academy, you won't be laughed off. ”

In fact, there is no need for outsiders to laugh off their big teeth, the people in the entire outer courtyard and the two pavilions of the National Court know that there is such a strange existence, and their laughter is unscrupulous.

Xu Ran hurriedly saluted and entered the door.

The National Courtyard, a mysterious place in the eyes of the world, is what countless people fantasize about inside.

It is deep in the Shenlong on the main street of Wuzhou, but it is no different from the other courtyard in reality.

Xu Ran's expression was a little confused, and he stood at the fork and looked at the boulder standing in front of him, on which there were two vermilion arrows carved on the left and right.

"On the left is the road of the Wen Pavilion, and on the right is the road of the Wu Pavilion. The disciple explained behind him: "There is still half an hour before the opening of the stage, so you had better prepare quickly." ”

Xu Ran followed his disciple into a long corridor, and at the end of the corridor there was a semicircular door, which was the entrance to the Martial Pavilion.

The entrance to the pavilion is on the left, the same is a long corridor, and there is also a door at the end, this simple layout is like the garden of a rich man's house, a circular space is divided by a huge stone at the door, and the long corridor that is half curved on one side is merged at the end.

The entrance to the Bunkaku is on the left-hand side, and the distance between the two pavilions is only one wall.

At the intersection of entering the martial pavilion, looking to the right, an open space appeared, and the east and west rows of wings sat opposite each other, feeling like an array of two armies facing each other, which was a little weird.

In the center of the wing room is a circular ring, with a three-storey attic, which is particularly conspicuous.

"Your name has been recorded, here are your school uniforms and books. ”

When I came to the western wing, I entered the houses one by one, and stopped at the house with the words "Memory Room" engraved on a wooden plaque, and the disciple took out a black samurai uniform and two old books and handed them to them.

Xu Ran took it, looking at the name on the book, his heart was quite excited.

"Reiki Sensitization" and "Reiki Utilization"

The disciple glanced at Xu Ran's expression and threw over a wooden plaque: "This is the location of your dormitory, and it is also a symbol of your status as a disciple of the Martial Pavilion." ”

The wooden plaque is engraved with the sign of "Four Rows, Ding She".

"Hurry back and change your clothes, and go to the "Yanwutai" in a while.

After the disciple said this, he left on his own, and Xu Ran found his own dormitory by looking for the serial number on the wooden card.

Open the door, there are four beds inside, the space is not small, but there is no one there, and the beds are even more empty.

There was dust from the opening of the door overhead, and it was clear that the room had been uninhabited for a long time.

Xu Ran hurriedly changed his clothes, calculated the time, and ran through the martial arts stage should be enough.

When he came to the stage panting, there were already people standing around, and there were nearly a hundred people in a rough count.

No wonder Wu Ge didn't see anyone, it turned out that they were all here. Thinking about it, Xu Ran stood at the back of the crowd.

When he was far away, he heard something vaguely talking here, and when he walked in to listen, Xu Ran couldn't help frowning.

"I heard that Mao Jiaoxi and Liu Jiaoxi opened the ring this time for newcomers. ”

"Every time the National Academy recruits civil and military courts, it is a bit unreasonable to open the stage just for a newcomer who can't practice, I heard that this newcomer has something to do with the senior sister of the inner court. ”

"Senior sister?"

"There is a senior sister in the inner courtyard now, of course it's her. ”

"No wonder he can't practice and can still enter the Martial Pavilion. ”

Xu Ran has been silent, and changed into a clean bachelor's uniform, although his hair is still casual, but he is really inconspicuous like this, if he is still a beggar, the person who speaks can also recognize it.

The chatter continued until Mao Jiaoxi and a burly man walked into the ring and disappeared.

The students met with the two teachers. ”

Mao Jiaoxi and the two stepped into the ring, and the crowd saluted.

Mao Jiaoxi nodded, and his eyes swept to the front: "Ah Qing, is he here?"

Ah Qing was the disciple who opened the door in the morning, and when he heard the respectful salute, he immediately shouted, "Xu Ran? ”

There was a commotion in the crowd, Xu Ran walked briskly, and the faces of the few people who were talking in front of him before instantly became strange, and he didn't think that this person was actually around, if he really had something to do with his senior sister, what would ......

Several people looked at each other, all a little embarrassed.

"Disciple Xu Ran has seen two teachings. ”

Mao Jiaoxi's face was expressionless, and the sturdy Liu Jiaoxi beside him looked at it twice, snorted coldly but didn't say anything.

Countless curious eyes swept towards Xu Ran from behind, who clearly felt scrutiny and doubt.

"The admission of new students should be opened. Mao Jiaoxi spoke: "The freshmen of the last class were fifteen years ago, and there were 237 disciples who entered the Martial Pavilion, and now there are 83 people left, and the rest have already served the country. After a pause, Mao Jiaoxi added:

"The opening of the stage is to arrange the studies of new students, and they are divided into classes, but now there is only one person who has become a student of Wuge, and he is still a person who cannot practice, and the class arrangement is obviously inappropriate. ”

Liu Jiaoxi snorted coldly, and he said: "Since the establishment of the Martial Pavilion in the National Academy, this is the first time that we have recruited people who cannot cultivate, Xu Ran, you tell me, what the Martial Pavilion should teach you, what you can learn, and what the two of us should do." ”
