Chen Heng had never thought that this class would end like this.
Looking at the young man's corpse being dragged away, his emotions had not recovered yet.
However, following this, he realized some things.
An opportunity, a perfect opportunity.
He quickly realized some things.
The Medod family was quite famous in the Kutu Principality. Even though they did not belong to the royal family, they were one of the top-tier families.
As someone from the Medod family and the second son of a Count, it was evident just how prestigious his identity was; he was definitely not a small fry.
However, the other party had killed such a person without any hesitation.
Evidently, this was not a brainless act; it could only be that he had something to rely on and did not place the young man in his eyes at all.
Chen Heng did not know whether this was because of the young man's immense strength or some other reason.
However, he knew that no matter what, as long as he could get on the young man's good side and have his support, he would be able to shorten the time it would take for him to rise up.
There was no doubt that this was an excellent opportunity.
"Are you guys scared out of your wits?"
Not too far away, Corripo turned and looked at Chen Heng and the others, who were standing there in a daze, as he coldly said, "Did you all understand what I just said?"
"Un … understood …"
Beside Chen Heng, a young man could not help but gulp as he looked at the cold and ferocious-looking Corripo and nodded as he spoke.
It seemed that he had been given a great fright.
This was not surprising.
To be able to enter this academy, all of the students here came from noble backgrounds.
However, even though they all came from noble backgrounds, there were not many whose backgrounds surpassed that of the young man from before.
Corripo had even killed the Medod family's descendant, so he most likely would not mind killing them as well.
With such a lethal threat right in front of them, even if they did not want to feel fear, it would be impossible.
"See you on time tomorrow."
Hearing this, Corripo nodded, his expression still cold as he said, "Those who don't come or are late will be considered to have given up."
Everyone looked at each other, then left one after another.
Even Krudo, who was by Chen Heng's side, did the same.
Only Chen Heng did not immediately leave. Instead, he walked up and respectfully said, "See you tomorrow, Mr. Corripo."
Looking at Chen Heng, Corripo felt quite surprised; he had never thought that someone would dare to come up to him.
However, he did not say anything and only looked at Chen Heng before nodding and not saying anything else.
Chen Heng did not say much.
When it came to gaining goodwill, one had to know when to stop. It would be bad if one was too impatient.
Just do it bit by bit.
He didn't say much, just turned around, and was pulled away by Krudo.
"How terrifying."
Krudo pulled Chen Heng to the side and waited until there was no one around before letting out a sigh of relief, "That person gives me a very dangerous feeling …"
"This is definitely a true knight."
He said with a solemn expression.
Looking at him, Chen Heng asked, "Krudo, have you seen a true Knight before?"
"Yes, of course I have."
Krudo nodded with a serious expression, "My grandfather was a true Knight."
Chen Heng's eyes lit up.
Krudo's grandfather was actually a true Knight.
Didn't that mean he was …
He stood there and looked at the dark-skinned, farmer-like Krudo as he thought to himself.
"But the feeling he gives me is much, much more terrifying than my grandfather."
Krudo stood there, still in shock, "It's almost like … the legendary Great Knights …"
"Like a Great Knight?"
Chen Heng maintained a calm expression as he said, "Don't be too nervous."
"Krudo, your grandfather is most likely quite old, while Mr. Corripo is still quite young, so perhaps the feeling he gives you is different."
"No … it's not like that."
Krudo shook his head, but he seemed to have some misgivings and did not continue.
"Speaking of which, why did you come here?"
Looking at Krudo's reaction, Chen Heng smiled and changed the topic, "You don't look like someone who would be interested in this sort of course."
Krudo was dressed simply and was from a northern ruler, so he had most likely received a lot of Knight education. Logically speaking, he should not be interested in this academy's Knight course.
"I didn't want to sign up."
Krudo felt a bit embarrassed, "It's my father.
Before I left, he said that no matter what, I had to sign up for Mr. Corripo's course.
As such, I signed up. "
Speaking to there, he lightly sighed, "In order for me to sign up for this course, my father thought of a way to borrow some money.
My tuition fees were all borrowed from others by my father. "
Hearing this, Chen Heng did not know what to say and could only pat Krudo's shoulder.
However, Krudo's words revealed a lot of information.
Evidently, compared to Baron Kaisen, Krudo's father most likely knew more, so he had told Krudo to join Corripo no matter how difficult the situation was.
To a certain extent, this was obviously insider information.
Chen Heng thought to himself as he looked at Krudo in front of him and thought of many things.
From the looks of it, Krudo's value was much greater than he had expected.
Not only did he have an extraordinary constitution, but he also seemed to have received Knight training and had Knight talent. Moreover, he was born in the Northern Domain, so he could directly communicate with the Northern Domain Lords. His grandfather was a true Knight, and his family was not that simple.
However, what made Chen Heng curious was that since Krudo's family had a true Knight, why were they in such dire straits?
No matter how run-down the northern territory was, it should not have been reduced to such a state that they had to borrow money for tuition fees.
As such, Chen Heng's expression did not change and he continued to ask for more information.
Following this, he found the answer.
It turned out that Krudo's family did not have a long history.
In fact, his family had started to prosper from his grandfather's generation.
His grandfather had been an ordinary farmer who had obtained the legacy of a wandering Knight and had decent Knight talent. As such, he had risen up, and after decades of hard work, he had become a noble in the Kutu Principality.
Compared to traditional nobles, they had not risen up for a long time, and their territory was in the north. Even though they had a Knight, their lives were quite poor.
This was especially so in recent years, as Krudo's grandfather's health had become worse and worse, their lives had become more and more difficult.
"The south is still better."
After talking to Chen Heng about the northern desert, Krudo could not help but lightly sigh, "Not only is the climate warm and not as cold as the north, but there are also not as many Outlanders, so they can peacefully develop …
"It's not like where we are, where we fight all day long …"
He deeply sighed, feeling quite envious towards where Chen Heng was from.
In actuality, the northern side of the Kutu Principality was indeed quite barren.
Not only was the climate quite cold, but it was also quite difficult for crops to grow, and their yields were quite low.
As a result, no matter how much effort was put into farming the same land, the number of people it could support was still less than the land in the warm climate in the south.
That was not all, but there were also the Outlanders.
The northern side of the Kutu Principality was connected to the desert.
According to legends, there were all sorts of Outlanders in the desert, and many of them viewed humans with hostility and would even take the initiative to invade human territory.
It was precisely because of this that the lords of the north were having such a hard time.
"Outlanders?"
Chen Heng felt quite curious, "Do Outlanders really exist?"
Before entering the simulation world, there was an option to choose the Outlanders identity.
This was the only option that didn't require any points, just like a normal family.
However, out of habit, Chen Heng had not chosen this option before, and he had never seen the Outlanders in the simulation world.
Hearing Krudo say this, he could not help but feel quite curious.
"Of course."
Krudo nodded and said, "The so-called Outlanders have always existed, and there are many of them.
"They are widespread in the desert, but they have always been blocked by the lords of the north, so it is rare to see them."
He spoke in such a manner, appearing to be very certain.
Following this, he described to Chen Heng a type of Outlanders that he had personally seen before.
They were a type of Outlanders called the Goode Orcs. They were about 1.5 meters tall and had about the same strength as a middle-aged man. They were quite backward and liked to gather in tribes.
They were the enemies that the northern rulers had to face.
"Goode Orcs …"
Chen Heng muttered this name and felt that it was quite familiar.
He had seen this race before, but he had not chosen it in the end.
"Those Goode Orcs are quite ferocious. Even though they are backward and do not have advanced swords or weapons, there are many of them and they can often cause great destruction."
Krudo sighed as he spoke.
They chatted for a while before going their separate ways.
The next day, when the sky gradually brightened, Chen Heng got up and went to the square from yesterday.
The place in front of him was quite spacious, and it was quite silent.
Chen Heng silently walked forwards.
He thought that he was the first to arrive.
However, what he did not expect was that there was a familiar figure standing in front of him.
Corripo was standing there with his body perfectly straight, looking like a pine tree.
