Chapter 17: Imperial City Academy
Huo Hai turned his head and didn't care about the fight between these guys. "If it's another traverser, if you encounter this kind of thing, I'm afraid you have to go up and stir up trouble. Huo Hai shook his head, not thinking about it at all.
Those who have a little ability, they are self-righteous, arrogant, and can't see clearly that they are making enemies everywhere, and in Huo Hai's opinion, they are simply the comfort of idiots. Hiding in the dark and secretly making a fortune, this is what Huo Hai wants most.
Huo Hai's usual performance, this is nothing, the people around him don't care, and even many people don't find out when Huo Hai left. Huo Hai did not have any obstacles all the way, and returned to the Huo family. As soon as he came to the gate, he saw that the housekeeper was waiting at the door anxiously, and when he saw Huo Hai coming back from a distance, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly greeted him.
As he walked, he said quickly: "Young Master, you are finally back, and the master and the elders are waiting at home." If you don't come back, we'll have to go out and find someone. Huo Hai probably already knew what was going on in his heart.
However, Huo Hai still pretended not to know what to do and asked, "What happened, why are you really in a hurry." ”
"Hurry up, you'll know when you're in. The housekeeper didn't say anything else, and pulled Huo Hai towards the hall. When Huo Hai entered the hall, he found that many people he knew and those he didn't know had come. Headed by his father and grandfather, as well as some other family leaders. From afar, Huo Hai could feel a threat and oppression from these people.
In the middle of the hall, there are many people, these are similar to themselves, they are not very old. Even connected nearly thirty years old, there is not one. Huo Hai nodded secretly, he understood that this time it must have something to do with Yunzhou.
"Okay, everyone's here, some people already know the truth. The selection of the Imperial City Academy once every ten years will start in half a month, and the people of the Imperial City Academy have already arrived in the capital of Western Xinjiang, and there are people from every family who have passed. ”
After a pause, the head of the family let all the people digest it well, looked around, and spoke again: "I believe that many people know the Tao. You all meet the requirements, you can join the Imperial City Academy, enter the Imperial City Academy, as long as you work hard, your future achievements are limitless. Many of the family elders were from the Imperial City Academy. ”
At this time, the following discussion became even more enthusiastic: "Is it true, the elders are really from the Imperial City Academy. Could it be that the Imperial City Academy is so powerful, if I enter the academy, wouldn't I be able to become a figure like an elder in the future. ”
"Are you okay, do you know how strict the selection of the Imperial City Academy is, and how many people are expelled every year. However, it is true that every one of them who came out of the academy was a master. In our western Xinjiang, this is the top person. "A twenty-something seems to know better.
Everyone was discussing, and the head of the family and others were very satisfied. The Imperial City Academy recruits the children of the big families to cultivate, which is to cultivate the loyalty of the imperial masters to the royal family. But for these families, it is also an important means for family members to improve their strength and enable the family to continue forever. These small families attach great importance to this.
"Ahem. Huo Kai coughed twice and motioned for everyone to be quiet: "Okay, don't talk about it, the Imperial City Academy only recruits people under the age of thirty, you can all give it a try." All kinds of rules, you all take a good look. ”
With a wave of his hand, the attendants will prepare the prepared paper and distribute it to the people below. Huo Hai looked at it, the same as what he heard outside. The only difference is that this test seems to change differently every time. Sometimes the quiz is easy, and sometimes it's cumbersome. No one knows what kind of test they can encounter.
The academy recruits people under the age of 30, but under normal circumstances, it is not so easy for people over the age of 20 to join. Those who are capable have joined long ago, and the rest have failed a test.
Every year, many people will participate again, and the registration fee for participation is not much, and it also puts an end to those ordinary children who want to give it a try. The regulations are simple, it's actually a test, it's not a big deal.
"Hey, I didn't expect this to happen, it seems that the Blood Refining Pill has been settled. Chu Yuntian looked at the record on the paper, and his eyes suddenly lit up. This year's quiz has a trial content. As long as you can get points in the trial, you can exchange anything at the Imperial City Academy when the time comes. Among them, such a thing as the Blood Refining Pill is nothing to the Imperial City Academy.
"Oh my God, how can there be trials this year, why am I so unlucky. I'm in my twenties, so I won't have a chance at all next time. "The others also saw the trial, but everyone's faces were not very good-looking.
"What's going on, is this trial so difficult? There were some people who didn't understand, and they asked the people around them.
A young man whispered, "Yes, when there is a trial, it is usually the least number of people who pass the test. You're still young, and there's still a chance for the next test, but we, hey, don't have that chance. ”
Because of the trial, there was chaos in the hall, noisy, abusive, and everything. Huo Kai's brows gradually furrowed, and then he yelled: "Whatever the system, shut up for me." Could it be that a little difficulty will make you retreat, how can you be regarded as a child of my Huo family, and how can you become a master in the future. ”
Huo Hai's words made everyone bow their heads, and their faces were full of guilt. At this moment, a tall man suddenly walked out and said loudly: "Family master, I remember that every time the family has a test-free recommendation place. ”
Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up. Exemption from the test, isn't it possible to join the Imperial City Academy without testing, this is simply a step to the sky. Most likely, everyone looked at it, there were only the son of the head of the family, and there was one Huo Yun'er.
"Family master, Huo Hai Jinniang has just lost her memory, I'm afraid that after entering the Imperial City Academy, she will be easily expelled. Besides, he is still young, so there is no need to worry now, and he will have a chance next time. Huo Yun'er's sister, his character, it is not suitable to enter the Imperial City Academy. I don't know who the Daoist master's quota this time is going to be handed over to use. "This kid directly blocked the way of the head of the family.
Now, not only the head of the family, but also other people's faces are not good-looking. On the stage, a middle-aged man looked anxious and glared at the tall man who came out. But he was unmoved.
"Hmph, apart from the two members of the lineage, who here is more qualified than me. When it comes to cultivation, they can't do it. ”
Just as the tall man was looking proud, the head of the house spoke. "Do you know how this quota came about? Every ten years, the family has to pay tribute to the royal family, and after a certain level, there will be this place, and there is only one. This place has always been for the heirs of those who have contributed the most to the family. Descendants are even more preferred. ”
Hearing this, the tall man's face finally changed. If you talk about the cultivation of the younger generation, he is not afraid of anyone, but he has been in the spiritual blood realm for several years. But in terms of contributions, more than his father's contributions, I don't know how many Lu Dao there are.
"Head of the family, the quota of the family can't be so hasty. For the sake of the family's future, of course, the most capable people must come. ”
A sneer flashed in Huo Kai's eyes: "In our Huo family, we will never sacrifice ourselves for the interests of the family. This place is a reward for those who have contributed to the family. If you really have the ability, then enter the academy on your own. "Go to a junior of a family, and actually talk to himself like this, if it were another time, he would have been arrested a long time ago.
Without waiting for him to speak, Huo Kai said to Huo Hai: "Xiaohai, what do you think." Needless to say, your grandfather and I have contributed the most to the family, and this place will only be the turn of others after you give up. ”
The tall man looked at Huo Hai with red eyes, this was his last test, and he couldn't enter the Imperial City Academy. In the family, there can never be much development. Maybe the realm of spiritual blood is the end of his life.
As if he hadn't seen it, Huo Hai said loudly: "Family Master, elders, I want to enter the Imperial City Academy with my own strength. This quota is still for those who need it more. Huo Hai's words surprised everyone. Huo Yan fought hard for this place. Huo Hai, who is not as good as Huo Yan in all aspects, gave up this place instead.
The elder sighed, although he was a little regretful, but the relief in his eyes could not be concealed. When Huo Yan heard Huo Hai's words, his eyes lit up, and he said eagerly: "Family Master, Huo Hai has given up, this quota can be given to others." ”
Huo Yan almost didn't say it directly to himself, this kind of performance, Huo Hai sneered in his heart: "Anger is in shape, your desire can't be controlled, you are not a person who does big things, and you can't become a master, there is no threat." I don't want it, most of this quota has to be given to Huo Yun'er. Huo Hai didn't seem to understand anything on the surface, but secretly calculated it.
What he needed was a Blood Refining Pill, not a place to enter the Imperial City Academy. Since he has come to this worldly realm, even the Imperial City Academy is just a stepping stone for himself. One day, I will fly to the clouds.
Sure enough, Huo Yan's appearance made everyone's impression even worse. Several elders discussed with each other for a while, and finally said to Huo Yun'er: "Huo Yun'er, according to the rules, Huo Hai gave up this quota, this quota is yours, what do you think." ”
Huo Yun'er frowned, and was about to say something, but suddenly saw Huo Hai squeezing his eyebrows at him. There is still a tacit understanding between the two brothers and sisters, and seeing Huo Hai's appearance, Huo Yun'er knows what is going on. After thinking about it, Huo Yun'er finally nodded with difficulty: "Okay, I'll join the Imperial City Academy." Huo Yun'er's words set this year's quota.
Huo Yan's eyes were already red: "For what, for what, for what, where am I worse than them, it's because they are descendants." Damn, I'm not going to lose to you, and I'm going to make you regret it. Huo Yan yelled in his heart.
