Chapter 232 Teaching Methods
"But then again. Richard looked at the girl and said, "If you ask me to clean, it means that your room hasn't been cleaned until now, right?
"Me!" the girl raised her eyebrows, a little annoyed and angry, "I want you to take care of it!"
Richard shrugged.
"That's right!" the girl glared at Richard, "You'd better be polite to me! You're new here, and I've been here for two years, so it stands to reason that you should call me Senpai." As a freshman, you should be a little polite!"
Richard's eyes flashed, and he said loudly: "In other words, the longer you stay, the closer you are to elimination, right? You should still be a first-level wizard apprentice now, right? After two years and no promotion, then in the last year of this year, the possibility of upgrading to a second-level wizard apprentice should not be very great." No matter how you look at it, there's nothing to be proud of, right?"
"You!"
The girl's eyes widened, and then she stopped.
Richard was right, staying in the White Rock Tower Academy for a long time does not mean that there are any advantages, on the contrary, it is more of a disadvantage. From this point of view, the old students are not as confident as they imagined when they are new students.
Whitestone Tower Academy implements a ten-year elimination system, and the entire teaching stage is divided into three grades:
A maximum of three years for the first year of a first-class wizard apprentice;
A maximum of three years for the second year of a Wizard Apprentice Level 2;
A maximum of four years for the third year of a Level 3 Wizard Apprentice.
The upper limit means that if you are a first-level wizard apprentice student and can't break through to the second-level wizard apprentice and advance to the second year after three years in the first year, then in order to avoid wasting the academy's resources, you will be ruthlessly kicked out of the academy.
Of course, after paying some price, the eliminated person can also choose to become a non-status student and continue to stay in the college, but there will be no convenience at all, and it will be worse than an auditor.
A second-level wizard apprentice, if he can't break through to a third-level apprentice after three years in the second year, the result is the same.
The only thing that is a little special is the third-level wizard apprentice.
If a student becomes a third-level wizard apprentice, then it means that he already has a certain strength, even if it is not comparable to a genuine wizard, but it is much stronger than ordinary people. Therefore, the White Rock Tower Academy has more patience for Level 3 Wizard Apprentices, and has deliberately given them up to four years to break through to the official wizard level.
And even if they can't break through and succeed in four years, the third-level wizard apprentice will not be eliminated and driven away like the students of the rest of the age, but can choose to continue to stay in the academy and become a member of the academy such as Banfu.
Although there will be certain restrictions and some mandatory services for the academy, it is also possible to earn crystals, accumulate strength, and try to continue to break through to become a full-fledged wizard. Once the breakthrough is successful, you can turn over and become the master. Of course, more people are just wasting time, and they can't break through for more than ten or twenty years, and become 10,000-year repeaters.
In this way, in the White Rock Tower Academy, a student has stayed for a long time, and there is nothing to show off at all. Especially old students, telling others how long they have stayed shows how poor their abilities and talents are.
Richard said something clear, which instantly stimulated the girl's fragile heart. The girl's eyes turned red after she was halfway through.
When Richard saw this, he took a step back towards the door in time.
The girl glared, as if she had been greatly violated, and said, "Why are you running, and I didn't beat you, it's obvious that you are bullying me......, okay?" I'm going to cry, can't you lend me a shoulder to lean on?"
"No, I can't. Richard shook his head, in affirmation.
"Why?!"
"If you get your clothes dirty, it's not good. Judging by the way you look, you can't even clean your room, and you can't do laundry, so I'd better be careful. β
"You!" the woman stared at Richard for three seconds with round eyes and a cannibalistic gaze, then turned sharply and strode towards her room, shouting "Who said I wouldn't clean the room! I just don't want to do it myself......!" I'll prove it to you now. β
"Actually, you don't have to prove it to me. Richard said lightly at the woman's back, "You live in the clean room, whether you clean it or not, it will have no effect on me."
Of course, I still have to thank you about the class schedule. In the future, if you have the opportunity, I will also help you with some small things. But...... Cleaning or something, forget it. β
"You ......," the girl turned her head to look.
Richard closed the door with a "bang", and a faint voice came from outside the door, "You...... You...... I'm at odds with you, you wait for me! By the way, what's your name? If you have the ability to tell me, forget it, I'll clean the room first and then settle accounts with you......
Soon, Richard heard the sound of something falling, followed by exclamations, screams, and coughing...... It lasted for a long time before disappearing.
Just when Richard thought he could be quiet for a while, there was a knock on the door.
"Bang bang bang!"
Richard opened the door, and unsurprisingly, it was the girl.
The girl's appearance at this time changed greatly, completely inconsistent with her previous arrogance, like a poor little beggar: her clothes were dusty, her face was stained with dust, and beads of sweat rolled down, drawing mud marks. His hands were black, raised in front of his chest, he didn't reach out, he didn't fall, he was at a loss. The other party frowned, his eyes were teary as if he was about to cry immediately, but he stubbornly held back.
Raising her head, the girl looked at Richard with the last remnants of noble temperament and said: "If you want to laugh, laugh out!" Anyway, you are already on the blacklist where I want to retaliate, and I am not done with you. β
"Well," Richard said, ...... the girl, as he looked at the girl, "I don't want to laugh, because you look exactly what I expected, and as I said beforeβyou obviously don't clean the room."
Before, you should have been paying someone to clean it, and before you came to the White Rock Tower, it should have been a servant to take care of your daily life. In this case, it is completely unreasonable to clean the room and not make a mess of yourself. I'm a little curious, though...... What are you trying to do when you knock on the door again?"
The girl said with a dark face: "I want to ask you, if there is any water to borrow for me, I want to wash my hands, and wash my face by the way." You can always help with this, for the sake of me bringing you back the class schedule?"
"Of course you can. Richard said "cheerfully," however...... There was no water in my room. β
"You!" the girl felt like she was going to explode, "I don't believe it, you clean up, how can there be no water?"
"The truth is, I took all the water downstairs and poured it out, as you saw before. If you want to wash your hands and face, it's best to go downstairs and fetch water yourself. As an old student who has been here for two years, you don't need me to tell you where to find a place to fetch water, right?"
"I'd appreciate it if you could fetch me a bucket of water. The girl couldn't help but change her soft tone and looked at Richard.
Richard said: "That's a good idea, but ...... It's like before you asked me to clean your room for you β I'm not interested. β
"......," the girl gritted her teeth, "Do you know that before I came to the White Rock Tower Academy, I was a princess! If my valet dared to treat me like this, I would have beaten him half to death." β
"Even, is it such a coincidence?, by the way, what do you think if I told you that I was a prince before?" said Richard, "and if there was a maid as bad as you, I would not beat her, for she would have killed herself in shame." β
"You!" the girl glared at Richard, if her eyes could be turned into knives, at this moment the girl could not hesitate to stab a hundred holes in Richard's body.
Richard looked at the girl with a calm face.
One second, two seconds, three seconds......
Ten seconds later, the girl retreated, gritted her teeth and turned around and walked downstairs, saying cruelly as she went: "You...... You wait, the days to come will be long, I don't believe it, you don't have time to ask me for help. β
"I hope so. Richard said slowly, "Also, if there is nothing necessary, don't keep knocking on my door, it will disturb my rest." β
Girl: "......"
With a "squeak", Richard closed the door very directly and entered the room.
