Pa.
The rabbit in Zi Mu's hand was not able to hold on to it this time. It fell to the ground and rolled a few times before jumping up and down, looking very happy. But at this moment, Zi Mu's heart was extremely bitter.
He knew he didn't have much talent, so he didn't have much expectations for the future. He only wanted to rely on his identity as a cultivator and live a better life than most ordinary people. That was already enough.
But the trip to the North Style Academy made him fantasize about the future. He never thought he could actually pass the North Style Academy's newcomer's trial.
So no matter what happened in the North Style Academy, he wouldn't really care. Being able to stand here was already an unimaginable happiness for him. This was an opportunity he never dreamed of.
But now … …
One month, no, to be precise, it was 26 days. There were still 26 days left in the North Style Academy.
What could he do in 26 days?
Complete the link?
Zi Mu smiled bitterly. Let's not talk about whether he could do it or not. Even if he did, was it enough to convince the North Style Academy? In the Northern Mountain New Courtyard, which was said to be the weakest in the North Style Academy, how many people could achieve the realm of Single Link?
The early morning sunlight was glaring at Zi Mu. The fantasy, expectation, and hope that he had just had were instantly annihilated. He was like a little snowman hiding in the dark. When the sunlight shone on him, he immediately melted.
It was all over.
Disappointment and despair. Zi Mu stood there blankly, as if he had become stupid. At this moment, a figure suddenly stood in front of him. The glaring sunlight was immediately covered.
"Your rabbit fell."
Lu Ping picked up the rabbit that fell from Zi Mu's arms and brought it in front of him. Because Zi Mu said it was not good to pick up the rabbit's ears, Lu Ping picked up one of the rabbit's legs. This made the rabbit even more uncomfortable and kept on struggling. Lu Ping was at a loss and frowned slightly.
This guy, at this time. Why would he care about the rabbit? Our current situation is totally different from being humiliated by those guys from the Huoguo School and being hostile to us!
The current Zi Mu couldn't even smile bitterly. But Lu Ping was still holding the rabbit in front of him.
"You better carry it over quickly." Lu Ping said. "From the looks of it, it doesn't look very comfortable either."
Zi Mu received the rabbit in a daze. Then, he saw Lu Ping smiling at him.
"You rascal!" Senior Brother Ji was quite displeased at this moment. Not only did this Lu Ping not seem to take his words seriously, he even turned the back of his head to look at him.
He waved the bamboo whip in his hand. She placed her hand on Lu Ping's right shoulder and pressed it against the right side of Lu Ping's face.
"Move to the fifth courtyard immediately, do you hear me? Do you want me to smash your head? "Senior Brother Ji shouted.
Lu Ping turned around, and very naturally, the bamboo whip moved away from his face.
"Yes," he answered concisely, still not showing any expression. He then turned around and called out to Zi Mu, "Let's go!"
Let's go, we can only go.
Zi Mu knew that nothing would change, so he nodded and silently followed behind Lu Ping.
His dispirited and despairing expression made Senior Brother Ji feel somewhat pleased. But Lu Ping's calm demeanor made Senior Brother Ji feel somewhat pleased. But that Lu Ping's calm demeanor made Senior Brother Ji feel like he had nowhere to vent his anger.
His stern gaze quickly swept across the courtyard. The newcomers who were either surprised by Lu Ping's and Zi Mu's misfortune, or were gloating over their misfortune, quickly put away their expressions when they saw Senior Brother Ji's provocative gaze. Some of them pretended to return to their rooms in order to escape Senior Brother Ji's gaze.
But Senior Brother Ji's thunderous voice immediately sounded in the courtyard.
"You, you, you, and you! The four of you, didn't I tell you not to spill the soup on the floor? Do you want us to smash your heads? "Senior Brother Ji waved his bamboo whip and instantly pointed out four newcomers. He released his evil fire. The newcomers all shrunk their heads, not daring to resist at all. They had already stayed here for four days, and had already experienced Senior Brother Ji's character.
There was no peace in the courtyard. Some of the newcomers outside the courtyard. Of course, they wouldn't rush to get into trouble. They wandered outside the courtyard as if nothing had happened. Then, they watched as Lu Ping and Zi Mu, each holding a rabbit, walked toward the easternmost part of the Northern Mountain New Courtyard.
The easternmost part … … was where the sun rose. In the end, it was his destination in the North Style Academy.
Zi Mu looked at the easternmost and silent courtyard number five, and his mood was extremely gloomy. But at this moment, Lu Ping, who was walking in front, suddenly turned and changed direction.
"Eh?" Zi Mu cried out in surprise. Lu Ping turned back.
"Where are we going?" Zi Mu asked.
"To have breakfast," Lu Ping said.
"Breakfast … … breakfast?" Zi Mu raised his head and looked. Lu Ping's new direction was the direction of the Northern Mountain New Courtyard's dining hall. He had just inquired about it from someone in the courtyard. But now, how could he still have the mood to eat? Why was Lu Ping still thinking about breakfast at this time?
Not only Zi Mu, but many newcomers outside the courtyard also admired Lu Ping. Although they did not enter the courtyard, they could clearly hear what happened in the courtyard. These two were about to be sent to the fifth courtyard. However, Lu Ping was still thinking about eating breakfast at such a time. Was he really in a hurry?
Was this guy a fool?
Everyone could not help but doubt, including Zi Mu. He really could not figure out what Lu Ping was thinking.
"I don't have much appetite, you go eat!" He said.
"Alright." Lu Ping nodded and went by himself.
"Eh … …" Zi Mu was depressed. This guy really went by himself? Couldn't he be like a normal pitiful person, hugging and comforting each other? If he went to have breakfast, did he have to go to the fifth courtyard first?
Zi Mu looked to the east and found that he really did not have the courage to do so.
"Eh, I'd better go eat." He shouted and hurriedly chased after Lu Ping.
"You have an appetite again." Lu Ping said.
"I'm just accompanying you." Zi Mu said. Actually, he needed someone to accompany him.
"I don't need to accompany you." Lu Ping was honest.
"Brother, please let me accompany you." Zi Mu wanted to cry.
"Alright … …" Lu Ping could only agree.
In the canteen, Zi Mu really did not have much appetite. Although he took a random flatbread, it tasted worse than the wild fruits that Lu Ping picked from Alkaid Peak. Thinking about the past few days, although he was deliberately made difficult by others and ate extremely bitter wild fruits, he still had infinite hope in his heart. But now? Thinking of this, the flatbread in his mouth became even more bitter.
"Have you finished eating?" Lu Ping had already finished his breakfast with a normal expression.
"Yes." Zi Mu threw the flatbread down. He had barely taken three bites.
Lu Ping glanced at the flatbread that Zi Mu had thrown away and did not say anything. He stood up and hugged the rabbit.
"Let's go to Courtyard Five." He said.
In an instant, countless gazes gathered on them.
The students eating in the canteen still did not know what happened in Courtyard 1. At this moment, they heard that Lu Ping and Zi Mu were going to Courtyard Five. From Courtyard 1 to Courtyard 4, all the newcomers and seniors, including the Big Dipper students in charge of the canteen, focused their gazes on them.
Courtyard Five?
Everyone muttered in their hearts as they watched Lu Ping and Zi Mu walk out of the canteen. Many people simply followed them out to have a look. As a result, they saw the two of them walking in the direction of the five academies.
"Why are they going to Courtyard Five?" someone asked curiously.
"Is it those two brats?" At this moment, a senior from Courtyard Four suddenly said.
"Huh?" Some people did not understand what he meant.
"Without the Power of Soul, there are two newbies who aren't even at the Through Passage realm," said the senior student from Fourth Academy.
"Yes, it's them." Immediately, a newcomer from Courtyard 1 came out and confirmed the identity of Lu Ping and Zi Mu. Everyone looked at this senior. He seemed to know something.
"That's why." Laozi had an expression as if there was a need to ask, "Without soul power and not at the Through realm, what qualifications do they have to stay in North Style Academy?"
"But without soul power because of yesterday's accident. Even if they are not at the Through realm, they still passed the newcomer's trial!" a newcomer said.
"Hahaha." That senior laughed loudly, "The newcomer's trial is just a step into the Big Dipper Academy. With just this step, do you think you can stand firm in North Style Academy or go far? Quickly put away your naivety and fantasies! The harsh path filled with thorns has only just begun! "
When the newcomers heard his lecture, they immediately fell silent. Among them, there were too many who looked forward to a beautiful and glorious future after passing the newcomer's trial. They felt that their future was limitless. But now, it seemed that it would not be so easy. If they were to slack off in the following days, they might very well end up like those two fellows. The newcomers looked at the backs of Lu Ping and Zi Mu as they walked towards the five academies. In the eyes of those who were clear about what kind of place the five academies were, Lu Ping and Zi Mu had stepped onto a path of no return.
At this moment, a voice suddenly resounded in the dining hall, following the senior's lecture.
"Old Han, how many steps did you take on that thorn-filled path?"
"Hahaha." Laughter immediately resounded in the dining hall.
The senior of the four academies was currently only one year away from the five academies. As someone who had not left the Northern Mountain New Academy for three years, these words were indeed very unconvincing.
However, when the senior of the four academies, who was addressed as Old Han, heard these words, he did not reveal an ashamed expression. He could tell where the voice came from, but he did not look for it. He only smiled and said indifferently, "That's true. No one sitting here has the right to lecture others. "
The laughter in the dining hall immediately stopped.
That's right! Although the situation of the senior students of the four academies was not good, how much better could the students of the three academies and the two academies be? It was merely the difference between fifty steps and a hundred steps. Those who remained in the New Big Dipper Academy had already fallen behind the students of the other academies. In this place, no one had the right to lecture others. What everyone had to do was to work hard, and only work hard.
At least they still had a chance.
