Chapter 39 Admission
Academy City was originally called Lucheng, but it was gradually called Academy City because of the large number of colleges here. Few people remember its real name.

There are more than [-]% of the institutions of higher learning in the Moon Kingdom, attracting students from all over the Moon Kingdom, and naturally other industries are also extremely prosperous.Therefore, Lucheng, which was originally a radius of more than ten miles, has gradually expanded into a super city with a radius of hundreds of miles.The original city walls have long since been demolished.

Although the City of Academy is not located in the hinterland of the Moon Kingdom, and it is only less than a thousand miles away from the surrounding Qingchuan, Tianhe, and Southern Qi Kingdoms, no country dares to attack this city because it has no city walls.

For hundreds of years, wars broke out between Yue Kingdom and Qingchuan Kingdom, Nanqi Kingdom, and Tianhe Kingdom.There are times when Yue Kingdom is invaded by enemy countries for thousands of miles, but every time there is a war, the city of Academy has never been occupied.

The students in Academy City are not only from the Moon Country, there are also quite a few people from surrounding countries who come to study from afar.The same is true for the teachers here, as far away as there are even professors hired from the snow country in the far north.In addition, many large chambers of commerce on the mainland have set up branches here, which can affect the whole body, making the status of this city extremely detached.

300 years ago, the Southern Qi State had invaded the Song City in the hinterland of the Moon State for three thousand miles from north to south, and the Academy City was also within the occupied range.At that time, except for some Yue Nation students who joined the army in Academy City, other forces remained neutral.

But a general of the Central Army of the Southern Qi State at that time was dazzled by the victory and wanted to conquer the city.At the beginning, he proceeded smoothly, the defenders and guards in Lucheng were almost negligible, and they were quickly wiped out.Subsequently, the chambers of commerce and colleges in the city were regarded as lambs to be slaughtered by the wolf-like soldiers.

But this army of 2 people was quickly submerged in the city, and there were endless numbers of college teachers, students, chamber guards, guest officials, gang members, and trade union members in the city. .But the only thing in common is that they are all practitioners.

Assassinations, assaults, beatings... this originally aggressive army suffered a head-on blow.When they wanted to withdraw, they realized that it was already too late. This seemingly harmless city without walls instantly turned into a bottomless abyss.

Of the 300 Southern Qi troops, only more than [-] remnants escaped from the city alive, and most of them were injured.

The blows suffered by the Southern Qi Kingdom did not stop there. After the war, they were jointly boycotted by those chambers of commerce that had branches in the Academy City, and the students studying in the Academy City were not all from civilian backgrounds, and there were also some rich and noble families. children.This caused Southern Qi to suffer heavy blows in business and diplomacy within a few years.

From then on, in wars between the Moon Kingdom and other countries, both sides would tacitly avoid this city, as if it didn't exist.

At this time, Lin Si and Mu Zheping slowly entered the city in a carriage.

It was also bustling and noisy, full of people's voices, but Lin Si's impression of this city was completely different from other cities he had experienced along the way.

Not only because of its large area, but also because its style is very different from other cities.Unlike Rongcheng where most of the buildings are made of wood, most of the buildings in this city are made of white or gray stone. Although the pointed roofs are scattered in height, the whole street still looks quite neatly distributed.

Broad-leaved trees are planted along the wide streets, which are lush.The horizontal and vertical artificial rivers flowed quietly in the city, and Mu Zheping couldn't help holding the little girl up and lifting the curtain to look at it.

The people on the street were dressed in different clothes, and they came from the Moon Kingdom and surrounding areas. All kinds of businessmen, hawkers, scholars, and tourists came and went with different accents. Many of the goods in the various shops were unheard of by the two of them before.Looking at the scene in front of them, the two forgot to speak for a moment.

"Hey, where should we go?" Lin Si came back to his senses and asked.

"First find out where St. Cloud College is, and then rent a house nearby." Mu Zheping replied after thinking for a moment.

"Hmm!" Lin Si stopped the car and went to the side of the road to ask for directions, while Mu Zheping held the little girl in his arms and pointed at the surrounding scenery, making her giggle.

After a while, Lin Si returned to the carriage with a map, and muttered, "The things here are really expensive. A map costs one silver coin. It's a robbery!"

Mu Zheping shook his head and laughed, and couldn't help but feel worried about his future life.

An hour later, the two drove to St. Cloud College, which was more than 20 miles away from the city gate.

There are not many shops and pedestrians on the street outside the school. Maybe it is the time of class, and the street looks quite quiet.

Approaching the vicinity of the college, one can see a wall made of gray rocks that is three or four miles long. It is not too high, only ten feet high, and patches of tree branches and leaves protrude from the top of the courtyard wall.In the middle of the courtyard wall is an arched door with a width of more than ten feet. A section of gray eaves extends from the courtyard wall to the upper part of the door to a height of five or six feet, but the top of the door is not sealed, which looks very magnificent.

On a thick pillar beside the door, there are several large characters written vertically: St. Cloud Higher Comprehensive College.

There was a small one-story house next to the school gate, which might have been lived in by the gatekeeper. Lin Si and his wife approached the school gate in a carriage, but they were stopped by the gatekeeper.

"Who are you?" The gatekeeper was a young man in his 20s.

"We are here to go to school!" Lin Si reined in and replied with a smile.

"It's been more than a month since school started, and you guys just came to school today?" The porter looked suspicious. Although the two of them were holding their children, they didn't look like those gangsters who sneaked into the academy to pick up girls, but they also didn't look like students.

"We've run into some delays."

"Is there an admission notice?"

"No, but we have a letter of introduction, let's come here to find someone named Xu Xuan." Lin Si took out the letter, and naturally he would not open it for the concierge to read, but it is still possible to see the name of the envelope.

The concierge naturally knew that Xu Xuan was the vice-principal of the college, but he was still skeptical, but he waved his hand to let him go: "Carriages are not allowed in, but people are allowed in."

The two got out of the carriage, Mu Zheping was holding the child, Lin Si asked the porter where Xu Xuan was, and then entered the academy.

Passing through the school buildings with round arch windows and steeple-shaped slanted roofs, both classical and romantic styles, passing by patches of lush and verdant groves.From time to time, a meandering stream flows through a gravel path into a small pond, and a small and exquisite stone bridge drives on the stream.

When Lin Si and Mu Zheping set foot here, it was as if they had washed away the bloody blood from the fight and the dust of the journey, and came to another world.

"It's really good to go to school here!" Mu Zheping couldn't help saying, he was a shadowy assassin a month ago, and he has been with danger all the time, the peace here is very precious to him.

"Yes!" Lin Si nodded in agreement, thinking that he would live here in the next few years, and his heart felt very comfortable.

"Yes—ah!" The little girl imitated him in a childish voice.

The two laughed.

After a while, the two followed the guide to the vice principal's office where Xu Xuan was located.

Bang bang tied!Lin Si knocked on the door.

"Come in!" A middle-aged man's voice came from inside the door.

Lin Si pushed the door open and went in, Mu Zheping followed behind him with the child in his arms and closed the door.

"Who are you?" In the spacious office, a middle-aged man in his forties sat behind a desk in front of him. He was slightly fatter and slightly bald on the top of his head, but he was full of energy.The man was slightly taken aback when he saw the strange combination of two teenagers and a baby girl in front of him.

"Hello! Is this Principal Xu Xuanxu? We were introduced by General Shang Hong!" Lin Si bowed slightly and took out the letter.

"It's you guys! Shang Hong sent someone to tell me, I'm Xu Xuan!" Xu Xuan took the letter and read it again, stood up and walked out of the desk to the next shelf to find a document, flipped through a few pages and continued Asked: "You are Lin Si and Mu Zheping, right?"

"Yes!"

"Why did you come so late? It's been almost a month since Shang Hong sent people here, and I thought you wouldn't come!" Xu Xuan's tone was slightly dissatisfied.

"Uh, sorry, something happened on the road."

"What's the matter with this kid?"

"This is the niece of a friend of ours, please take care of us for a while!"

"You can't take children to class in school!"

"We know this, we plan to go out and find a place to live!"

"Oh? You don't need to stay on campus, that's fine!" Xu Xuan nodded, not thinking about it anymore. "What major are you going to study? I heard from Shang Hong that you are practitioners, why don't you learn to practice?"

Lin Si and the other two didn't expect Shang Hong to tell him all this, but he didn't seem to mention the specific realm.Otherwise, if he learned that the two of them were capable of rivaling the practitioners who transferred to the realm, his attitude would never be so perfunctory. After all, the strongest freshman in the first year of their Shengyun cultivation department is only at the beginning of the transfer.

But this was exactly what the two of them wanted, so Lin Si told him the excuse he had told Shang Hong again.

Xu Xuan waved his hand as if he didn't want to listen any more. He didn't really like this kind of admission without passing the exam through the back door. He only agreed because of Shang Hong's face.

"Are you going to study medicine?" He looked at Lin Si, and then asked Mu Zheping, who was holding the child beside him, "What about you?"

"This?" Mu Zheping hesitated, "Can you show me what subjects are available?"

Xu Xuan was stunned for a while, this young man really made him more and more angry, listening to this tone, he didn't know anything!But he didn't lose his composure. Anyway, St. Cloud College also has rich kids who didn't pass the exam and spent a lot of money to come in and get their qualifications. He has seen a lot.

Finding a piece of paper full of words and handing it to Mu Zheping, he said sarcastically, "Then you can choose slowly!"

Mu Zheping took it casually, and both he and Lin Si knew that the way he entered the school was not honorable, so they didn't say anything.

After a while, he raised his head and returned the paper to Xu Xuan: "I'll major in instrument making!"

Xu Xuan didn't ask too much, as long as it's not about cultivation and military command, it doesn't matter if you cram in other subjects.

Afterwards, he began to write on the two forms with a pen, stamped them on the form and handed it to Lin Si: "You two, take this to the admissions office, they will assign you classes! You can officially start class tomorrow!"

Lin Si and the two quickly took it and thanked them.

Xu Xuan nodded slightly and added: "You have not passed the examination, and you came more than a month late, so it is impossible to enroll, so I fabricated the identity of a Qianxing Academy transfer student for you, don't tell others!"

The two nodded in understanding.

Afterwards, the two paid the tuition fee of two gold coins at the admissions office, received the school uniform and ID card, and divided the classes.

At noon, the two came out of the admissions office. At this time, the school was already bustling with people. It seemed that the students had finished their classes.There are tens of thousands of students in Shengyun College, and the two of them are not afraid of being seen as strangers, but it's a little strange for Mu Zheping to hold the child.

After walking out of the school gate and riding in a carriage, the two rented a house in a residential area five miles away. After paying the rent of two gold coins, the two took their children to the street and had a meal before starting to buy some household items. thing.

I was busy until the evening before I officially settled down.
