Chapter 41: There is still a chance

At the end of a depressed and turbulent week, Ke Zhenxi ushered in the second Monday of October.

While worrying about the duck eggs at home, he was looking back on the cultivation of immortal arts, and on the other hand, he had to think about how to win the training place, he had never had so much heart before.

He walked into the classroom, thinking about his thoughts, when suddenly he felt someone trip over him, and he suddenly fell and ate.

"What are you doing?" said Ke Zhenxi angrily, looking up to see a group of people led by Delido Lawrence looking at him with malicious intent.

Lawrence scoffed, "Isn't this Martin Zhenxi? I heard you were beaten up in Goblin Throwing class?"

"What's the matter with you?" Ke Zhenxi saw that the other party was overwhelmed, and swallowed the swear words on his lips.

"You untouchable, you don't know what to do, and you still want to participate in the freshman training? You clown who made a pact with duck eggs!" Lawrence said, laughing with the crowd before walking to their seats.

Listening to the ridicule of Lawrence and his party, and looking at the sympathetic and pitiful eyes of the classmates around him, Ke Zhenxi's heart was full of sourness. He clenched his fists tightly and secretly swore in his heart: "I must participate in the freshman training and win the first place!

At this time, de Gaulle, who had already arrived in the classroom, walked up to Ke Zhenxi, patted him on the shoulder, and whispered: "Don't be angry with Lawrence, there are such people everywhere, just don't take it to heart." ”

Ke Zhenxi glanced at De Gaulle gratefully, it was precisely because of the existence of De Gaulle and Xinghua that he did not seem so lonely, otherwise he really didn't know how to spend his life at school.

He sat silently between de Gaulle and Xinghua, his face still very bad.

"I apologize to you on behalf of my brother. Xinghua said cautiously in a low voice, with a caring look in his eyes.

"You apologize, you didn't do anything wrong. Ke Zhenxi knew that Xinghua also cared about him, and his mood improved a little. This girl was always so kind and gentle, which eased his resentment.

Xinghua saw that Ke Zhenxi's face was much better, and he asked with a wandering gaze: "By the way, have you signed up for the ball?"

"No, I don't know how to dance at all. Ke Zhenxi was not interested in this kind of thing, and he couldn't understand why Ke Lan'er and Xinghua would ask him this question.

"Oh. Xinghua looked a little disappointed, lowered his head and looked at the note, and did not speak again.

Ke Zhenxi saw that Xinghua was very interested in the ball, so he pretended to be curious and asked, "Have you signed up?"

"I reported it. Seeing that Ke Zhenxi brought up this topic again, Xinghua said with a shy smile.

"Do you like to dance?"

"Well, I learned from my mother when I was younger. I didn't dance ballroom dancing with anyone else, I practiced it all by myself. ”

Ke Zhenxi knew that Xinghua had no friends and was oppressed at home, otherwise he wouldn't be able to practice pas de deux alone.

"If you have a chance, you can teach me and de Gaulle. Ke Zhenxi echoed, of course he was not interested in dancing, but it was a rare opportunity to talk about something that made Xinghua happy, so why not do it.

"Really?" Xinghua looked very happy, showing a rare smile.

Ke Zhenxi found that this timid girl with silver hair and eyes was still very cute when she smiled, which reminded him of his daughter Ke Duoer, and he couldn't help but feel pity again. He smiled and nodded, "Of course it's true." ”

"I can dance a simple ballroom dance, and I signed up, but I don't know if I can win the lottery. De Gaulle interjected in a flat tone, he was not interested in dancing itself, but there were many nobles in the National Day Ceremony Hall, and there were naturally not a few beautiful women, and it was of course best to participate, "You can also sign up, don't report it." It's okay if you don't want to go. ”

Ke Zhenxi listened to it and thought: "It also makes sense, anyway, if you don't want money, then try it." ”

The music of the class sounded, and the classroom gradually fell silent.

Cangyang-Zichun held the mana pen while writing the board book, and talked about the content of the basic spell.

Ke Zhenxi tried hard to listen to the lecture, but he couldn't listen to it. When he was in school in his hometown, he was like this, he always slipped and couldn't remember what the teacher said.

Approaching the end of class, Zichun put down the textbook in his hand and said, "That's all for the morning class, let's talk about the freshman experience." Originally, I wanted to say it after the November Festival, but I heard that some students are very concerned about the quota issue, so I will tell you about the quota allocation rules now. ”

Ke Zhenxi, who was originally slipping away, suddenly raised his spirit, as long as it was something unrelated to the content of the class, he could still remember it.

"I have forty places, and there are 1,009 of you in total, and for the sake of fairness, I will select them by examination. The exam was held in December and was conducted in the form of a written test, which was the content of my lectures over the past few months. ”

As soon as Zichun's voice fell, the students in the classroom began to whisper. This decision has a great impact on the decision of the slot, and many students with strong spell skills are not good at written exams.

In fact, this is an opportunity for Ke Zhenxi, and he himself knows very well that if he is selected through battle, he has no chance. However, he is not good at written exams either. In less than two months, he hadn't memorized much of the content of the Fundamentals of Spells course. He moved his gaze to Xinghua's notebook and breathed a sigh of relief, it really can't be done, he can let Xinghua, a good student, give him a make-up lesson!

Xinghua's gaze made contact with Ke Zhenxi's fiery eyes, her face flushed slightly, and she said in a low voice: "Star...... What are you looking at me?"

"Can you guide me through my studies? Ke Zhenxi said with a smile on his face, and the current image of Xinghua in his eyes suddenly became taller.

"Huh? Xinghua's face showed joy and nodded again and again.

"Gee, that's so thankful. Ke Zhenxi was ecstatic in his heart, and now his chances of getting a training place increased sharply.

Just as everyone was talking, a voice suddenly sounded: "Teacher, this is not fair." ”

The discussion came to an abrupt end, and all eyes suddenly focused on Lawrence.

"Unfair, where is it unfair?" Zichun still had that strict face, looking at Lawrence indifferently.

Lawrence stood up, looked back at Ke Zhenxi, then turned his head to look at Zichun, and said, "The theoretical knowledge you talked about is not useful in actual battles, and people with good results in the written test may not have a high level of spells." The Wizards' Guild's Wizard Rank Exam does not have a written exam. ”

Ke Zhenxi frowned and looked at Lawrence, he had already scolded in his heart, he didn't want to lose this only opportunity.

Zi Chun listened to Lawrence's words, but still didn't have any expression fluctuations, and said, "Only by laying a good theoretical foundation can you have a solid spell strength." Every spell in the actual battle is inseparable from the spell foundation I teach. The content of my lectures is the theoretical knowledge of spells, and it is understandable to use theoretical knowledge to determine the quota, and there is no unfairness. ”

Lawrence obviously couldn't accept this explanation, he snorted lightly, sat down unhappily, and said loudly to his companions beside him: "Anyway, I won't apply for a place with this teacher, with my strength, getting a place from other teachers is like having fun." It's a pity that it's cheaper than a lot of incompetent waste. ”

"It's okay, boss. Lida Manken, who had a sharp beak and monkey cheeks, said rudely, "Even if you get a place in Cangyang-Zichun's hands, those wastes won't be able to pass the knockout round, but will slap Cangyang-Zichun in the face." ”

"That's right, hahaha. Lawrence was in a much better mood when he heard Munnken say this.

At 3 p.m., the music sounded and the students left the classrooms one after another.

Ke Zhenxi did not rush out of the classroom to eat as usual, but copied Xinghua's notes while listening to Xinghua explain the key content of the class.

"The attributes of mana elements mainly include water, fire, earth, wood, wind, thunder, light, darkness, and acid. Xinghua patiently explained, his voice gentle and soft.

"Xinghua, you are so good, if my teacher had been so patient as you, I would also be a seedling of Tsinghua University and Peking University. Ke Zhenxi wrote a note and accidentally slipped his mouth.

"What is Tsinghua University and Peking University?" Xinghua asked, tilting his head.

"Uh...... It is a magic school in our town, called Tsinghua University and Peking University. ”

"The Principality of Kosovo is far away from here, do you miss your family very much?" Xinghua asked with concern.

"I'm an orphan. Ke Zhenxi thought of his hometown that he would never return to, and was a little sad, telling a lie that he had already made up.

"Huh?" Xinghua didn't expect Ke Zhenxi to be an orphan, so he hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry." ”

"It's okay, you didn't mean to. I'm nothing, I'm worried about you, does your family always bully you?" Ke Zhenxi had a good impression of this poor girl, and even felt sympathy for the domestic violence she suffered. It was hard for him to imagine that any father would do this to his daughter, even if it was an illegitimate daughter.

"It's good to get used to it. Xinghua barely smiled and lowered his head.

"It's good when we become junior mages, and if anyone dares to bully you again, I will protect you. Especially that Lawrence, when I get stronger later, I'll beat him to death. ”

"Thank you, you and de Gaulle have been so kind to me, but I can't help me in anything. Xinghua said, his voice getting quieter and quieter.

"Why can't you help, you can guide me to study. By the way, you should also make a few more girl friends, I see that you have no other friends besides me and de Gaulle. ”

"Well, Floya and Nami have a pretty good relationship with me. ”

Xinghua has been bullied at home for a long time, has a very introverted personality, and is even a little autistic, plus Lawrence always calls her around at school, and few girls will take the initiative to communicate with her.

On the contrary, Nami usually helped her a lot, although she still looked like a commanding lady.

"Also, it's only been a little over a month since I went to school, and I'll get better in the future. Alas, do you want to go to the ball, do you want to take the opportunity to find a good boy?" Ke Zhenxi suddenly said smartly.

"I didn't ...... No, I just love to dance. Xinghua blushed, snorted, and plucked up the courage to look up at Ke Zhenxi, "No boy likes me, maybe no boy wants to dance with me." ”

"You have to be confident, don't be cringe. You're so cute, but you don't like to dress up, and if you invite me to dance, I won't refuse. Ke Zhenxi comforted the poor girl, he now has a request for others, and he must be desperate to please.

Xinghua's thin body suddenly shook, bit his lip, and plucked up his courage to say, "Then, then I'll teach you to dance now?"

"This ...... Well, let's do it another day, I still have some things. Ke Zhenxi is still thinking about going back to memorize his notes, and he will go to Turg-Nev to learn immortal arts in the evening.

"It's a lie. Xinghua pouted, the disappointment in his eyes overflowing.

Ke Zhenxi was really not interested in dancing, but when he saw this girl's pitiful appearance, his heart suddenly softened.

"No, since Miss Xinghua deigned to teach me to dance, I have to put aside no matter how important things are. Come, please teach us. Ke Zhenxi stood up, made a gentleman's appearance, and stretched out his hand to pull Xinghua.

Xinghua felt the hot body temperature in Ke Zhenxi's hand, and a trace of emotion rose in her heart, since her mother passed away, no one had ever treated her like this.

"I ...... I also just read books, and I usually dance and play on my own. Xinghua is also afraid that he will not teach well and delay others.

"It's okay, we can improve by fumbling. Ke Zhenxi secretly looked at the big clock outside the window, three thirty o'clock. Teacher Tu Ge began to teach immortal arts at five o'clock, and there was enough time.

"Then I'll accompany this poor baby, it's so pitiful to have a child without the love of his parents. Ke Zhenxi secretly said in his heart, thinking of his daughter, and inadvertently held Xinghua's hand a little tighter.

In this way, Xinghua explained the footwork while taking Ke Zhenxi to move the dance steps in the classroom.

The two of them, one who didn't know anything, the other who was nervous and excited, with no music and no lights, danced the first ballroom dance in their lives under the afterglow of the sunset.
