Chapter 64

~9 min read 1,792 words

The opening ceremony ended, and the four years of campus life officially began.

That night, Zhang Xingyu lay on the bed, carefully flipping through the student handbook.

Although I am smart, I understand the importance of the student handbook even more.

Course learning, training missions, point system.

Look, the teaching management system of Nanhua Cheng Immortal Academy is no worse than the famous universities on Earth.

Zhang Xingyu read softly: "The academy offers seven courses: Qi Refining, Spells, Alchemy, Artifact Refining, Beast Taming, Arrays, and Talisman Making. Among them, Qi Refining is a basic course and must be practiced; the other courses are professional courses and can be chosen for practice. After completing each course, students can apply to take an assessment, and the school will give students learning points based on the assessment results."

Not bad, it's a point system, not a periodic exam.

"Students should complete corresponding training missions. Training missions are divided into two types: mandatory training missions and elective training missions. Mandatory training missions are once a year, arranged uniformly by the academy, and students are required to complete them. Elective training missions are training missions released by the academy that students can freely choose. After the training mission is completed, the academy will give or deduct corresponding contribution points based on the mission completion and the student's contribution," Zhang Xingyu continued to read.

"If a student's learning points are insufficient, they will not be able to graduate smoothly; if a student's contribution points are insufficient, they will not be able to exchange for cultivation items. Students can use contribution points to exchange for learning points, with every ten contribution points exchanging for one learning point. Students can use spirit stones to exchange for contribution points, with every ten low-grade spirit stones exchanging for one contribution point."

The academy really has a way to make money.

From these point rules, it can be seen that the academy is forcing students to work hard to earn spirit stones to exchange for points.

Finished reading, turned off the lights, and rested.

The next day, just as the sky was getting light, Zhang Xingyu got out of bed.

Classes were starting this morning.

The first class, the content taught by the teacher was Qi Refining.

It's really something to look forward to.

Pushed open the courtyard door and found that Hu Siping was already waiting outside.

Behind him followed the gossip boy Bai Xiaosheng.

"Brother Hu Siping, why is Bai Xiaosheng with you?" Zhang Xingyu asked curiously.

Hu Siping touched his nose and explained embarrassedly: "I figured it was a waste for one person to live in one courtyard, so I rented the second floor to Bai Xiaosheng."

Bai Xiaosheng laughed: "Zhang Xingyu, from now on, we are neighbors. Please take care of me."

Called Hu Siping, made an appointment with the little fatty, and followed by Bai Xiaosheng.

The four of them finished breakfast and hurried to the Preaching Building.

Arrived at the classroom and found a dozen people sitting sparsely inside.

The three came to the first row, chose three middle seats, and sat down.

A quarter of an hour later, a handsome man about thirty years old walked into the classroom.

This person glanced at the sparse classroom, shook his head, and then walked straight to the podium.

The young teacher didn't talk nonsense, opened the sound-transmitting stone, and started lecturing directly.

"Students, I am your Qi Refining teacher. Today, the course I am teaching is the basics of Qi Refining. So-called Qi Refining refers to a cultivation method for cultivators to absorb spiritual aura to nourish themselves. To practice Qi Refining, one must have a spiritual root. The spiritual roots of cultivators are divided into four grades: Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow. According to the attributes of the spiritual roots, they can be divided into Five Elements Spiritual Roots and Variant Spiritual Roots. Five Elements Spiritual Roots refer to: Metal Spiritual Root, Wood Spiritual Root, Water Spiritual Root, Fire Spiritual Root, Earth Spiritual Root; Variant Spiritual Roots include: Lightning Spiritual Root, Ice Spiritual Root, Wind Spiritual Root..."

Zhang Xingyu was well prepared; he took out a notebook and took notes carefully while listening seriously.

This was a study habit he had developed before crossing over. I remember my class teacher in my previous life once told me a golden rule: a good memory is not as good as a bad pen.

"Just talked about spiritual roots, now let's talk about Qi Refining. Qi Refining is the entry stage of cultivation, divided into nine levels. Each level has different meridians to practice, and the route of spiritual aura operation is also different. For this first level of practice, you must first find the feeling of Qi..."

After talking for half an hour, the teacher stopped.

"That's all for today. Next class, same time in ten days." After the teacher finished speaking, he walked straight out of the classroom.

What's the situation?

Zhang Xingyu hurriedly chased after him: "Teacher, teacher, may I ask when the textbook for this course will be issued?"

"Textbook? Are you talking about the Qi Refining Method?" the teacher asked.

Zhang Xingyu nodded: "Exactly the Qi Refining Method."

The teacher glanced at Zhang Xingyu: "The Qi Refining Method needs to be purchased by students themselves at the Scripture Depository. These things are all stipulated in the academy rules; didn't you see them?"

Zhang Xingyu scratched his head embarrassedly: "I only read the student handbook and haven't had time to read the academy rules yet."

After class, out of the Preaching Building, the four found many students pulling lines and walking to the classroom.

Zhang Xingyu was strange, is there any other course today?

Immediately, they followed the crowd back to the classroom.

After half a day, no teacher came. Someone shouted: "What's going on, why hasn't the teacher come yet?"

Zhang Xingyu secretly asked a student in front: "Brother, what class is it today?"

"Qi Refining class," the man replied.

Dizzy.

Zhang Xingyu lifted his legs and walked outside.

"Brother Xingyu, so urgent, where are you going?" Zhu Dafu asked.

"Where to go, of course, to the Scripture Depository to buy the Qi Refining Method," Zhang Xingyu said.

The four of them arrived at the Scripture Depository in a hurry, only to see many people already queuing outside.

A student was holding a small booklet and walking out in high spirits.

"Brother, is it the Qi Refining Method?" Zhang Xingyu grabbed his arm and asked loudly.

The man glanced at him: "Yes. Uh, aren't you that waste spiritual root Zhang Xingyu? You also came to buy the Qi Refining Method?"

Zhang Xingyu nodded.

"Hahahaha, so funny, you waste who refines Qi, what are you buying the Qi Refining Method for?" the man laughed loudly.

His laughter immediately attracted the attention of the people around.

"Look, it's that waste spiritual root. I heard he was a toad dreaming of eating swan meat, kneeling and saying 'I love you' to Fairy Yunxi, and ended up being slapped by Fairy Yunxi?"

"Really? So he is Zhang Xingyu. He doesn't look handsome, not even as handsome as me? How dare he pursue Fairy Yunxi? Really no self-knowledge."

Outside the Scripture Depository, a group of students pointed at Zhang Xingyu and whispered.

"What are you talking nonsense about? If you chew your tongue again, I'll beat you up." Zhu Dafu was furious after hearing these people's words.

Zhang Xingyu grabbed him: "Calm down. Excellent people are always hated; why bother with these mediocre people."

"Tsk tsk, really shameless. You, a piece of trash, dare to say we are mediocre people," the man just now mocked.

Hearing this man's words, the people around burst into laughter.

Zhang Xingyu glared at the man and pulled Zhu Dafu and Hu Siping into the Scripture Depository.

It's meaningless to fight with these ignorant people; it's more important to buy the Qi Refining Method early.

"Why, want to leave?" The man blocked Zhang Xingyu's way all of a sudden.

"Good dogs don't block the way," Zhang Xingyu said coldly to the man.

"You, a waste spiritual root, what are you buying the Qi Refining Method for? Get out of Nanhua Cheng Immortal Academy early," the man said loudly.

"Sick. Get out of the way quickly; don't blame me for being impolite if you don't," Zhang Xingyu shouted loudly.

"Why, do you want to hit people? Let me tell you, there are so many of us, we are not afraid of you." The man said while retreating into the crowd behind him.

"Waste spiritual root, get out."

"Waste spiritual root, get out."

"..."

I don't know who took the lead, but the call for Zhang Xingyu to get out of the academy rang out in front of the Scripture Depository.

The sound was like a thunderbolt, ringing over the Scripture Depository.

"I XX." Zhu Dafu cursed, rolled up his sleeves, and was about to go up and fight.

Beside him, Hu Siping's eyes were red, and he also silently clenched his fists.

Although Zhang Xingyu was furious, he hadn't lost his reason.

He grabbed Zhu Dafu's arm: "Little Fatty Zhu, don't be impulsive."

Not long after, several teachers responsible for maintaining the academy's order ran over in a hurry and set up a human wall between the two sides.

"Zhang Xingyu, what are you doing? Don't cause trouble here?" The leading teacher warned loudly.

"I want to go to the Scripture Depository to buy the Qi Refining Method. Let them get out of the way; otherwise, don't blame us for being impolite," Zhang Xingyu said coldly.

The student who blocked the road saw the teacher coming and became a little bolder.

He shouted at Zhang Xingyu and the others: "Waste spiritual root, I'm just standing here blocking the road, what can you do to me?"

"Damn, looking for a beating."

As soon as his voice fell, he was slapped to the ground by Zhu Dafu with a "pop".

"Teacher, he hit me." The man covered his red and swollen cheek and cried out to the teacher loudly.

The leading teacher looked at Zhu Dafu, his face uncertain.

After a moment, he pointed at the three of Zhang Xingyu and said loudly: "Fighting is not allowed in the academy. You guys come with me to the academy office, and the others hurry up and disperse."

That night, Bai Xiaosheng was organizing his small notebook in his room: "Xianyuan Calendar 100,002, September 3rd, Nanhua Cheng Immortal Academy, waste spiritual root owner Zhang Xingyu was surrounded and blocked by students outside the Scripture Depository. The students shouted for Zhang Xingyu to get out of the academy. The two sides fought, and the Prince Pingshan's son took action in anger."
