The night passed and it was a new day.
Lu Ping pushed open the door and welcomed the rising sun. The morning breeze that brushed against his face made him feel refreshed.
After returning last night, he continued to train until he was tired. Although he didn't make any progress in the end, with Lu Ping's training method, eliminating many ideas and plans could be seen as constantly moving forward.
There were still twenty four days.
Lu Ping was also calculating the days in his heart. Originally, he didn't care much about the North Style Academy, but after knowing from Huo Ying that he could see the Soul Locking Manual in the Dubhe Tower, he had a strong desire to stay.
He wanted to become stronger.
Only then could he feel at ease to look for Su Tang, Morin, Siffin, Teacher Chu Min, and also find what Guo Youdao was forced to lose. This desire, he wouldn't say it out loud, and wouldn't show it in front of others, but it was deeply rooted in his heart.
Removing the shackles of Ecstasy Lock was undoubtedly the most straightforward method for him. But before that, he still had to solve the problem in front of him. How to deal with the courage that Guo Youdao left for him, this was what he had to do in the next twenty four days.
Because he had absolute trust in Guo Youdao, he didn't feel anxious. He silently sorted out the various methods and ideas he tried yesterday, hoping to find a new clue. At this moment, the door next door was pushed open, and Zi Mu walked out with a pair of dark circles under his eyes.
"Morning." Zi Mu greeted listlessly when he saw Lu Ping. He didn't sleep at all yesterday, the experience on Megrez Peak made him a little uneasy, and when he returned, he blurted out the matter he promised Jin Qi to keep it a secret, which made him even more uneasy. Thinking about his uncertain future, the first night in the five academies was torture for Zi Mu. But seeing Lu Ping's energetic appearance, he didn't find it strange. Although Lu Ping's experience and situation were extremely similar to his, he was already used to not thinking about Lu Ping with normal logic.
"Morning. Did you not sleep well?" Lu Ping could tell that Zi Mu was in a bad state.
"Yeah!" Zi Mu rubbed his eyes. He was very sleepy, so sleepy that his eyes hurt, but when he closed them. But no matter how hard he tried, he could not fall asleep. He went to the well in the courtyard and drew a bucket of well water.
"Relax," Lu Ping said.
"I'll try my best," Zi Mu said.
"Shall we go for breakfast?" Lu Ping asked.
"Uh …" Zi Mu hesitated. He was not just suffering from insomnia. He also had no appetite and didn't feel hungry at all. Last night, he only ate half a steamed bun.
At this moment, a rabbit jumped out from each of their doors, one after the other.
"Sigh." Zi Mu sighed. "Even if I don't eat it, it still has to eat it!"
The two of them went to wash up, but there was no movement from the other rooms. They didn't know if the others were still awake or had already woken up to do something. Finally, the two of them each held their own rabbits and went to the canteen of the Beishan New Courtyard.
The canteen provided breakfast, lunch and dinner, so they could eat whatever they wanted. However, according to the seniors, this was the special preferential treatment of the Beishan New Courtyard for the newcomers. When they left the Beishan New Courtyard, these basic living needs would be solved by the students themselves. No matter how high the status of the four academies was, the daily necessities were inevitable. The huge expenses of the entire academy. The Phecda Peak was responsible for all kinds of expenses and supplies!
Lu Ping and Zi Mu were not late, but when they arrived at the canteen, they saw a scene of people gobbling up food in a hurry. Everyone seemed to be in a hurry, and some even rushed over to take some food and then left in a hurry.
"This … What's going on?" Zi Mu was surprised. Lu Ping was at a loss. The two of them held the rabbits and stood at the door for a while. Finally, they saw that everyone was going to the same direction when they left the canteen.
"Hey, where are you going?" Zi Mu threw caution to the wind and asked a newcomer of the same batch.
"Lesson day." The person threw these three words, broke free from Zi Mu and ran away. On the other hand, Zi Mu looked relieved. Lesson day, he had heard of it before! Then, without waiting for Lu Ping to ask, he took the initiative to explain.
"Lesson day is a tradition of the North Style Academy. It is the first month after the newcomers enter the academy. It is arranged by the seven peaks to conduct seven lessons for the newcomers. This is a rare opportunity. The person who will come to teach the newcomers might be someone you won't be able to come into contact with again. So, not to mention the newcomers, you see, everyone doesn't want to miss it. Maybe there will be people who are not from the Beishan New Courtyard coming to listen! "Zi Mu said. He turned his head to look at Lu Ping and saw Lu Ping taking out a few buns from the canteen.
"Hey, did you hear me!" Zi Mu said angrily.
"I heard you. Do you want to go and take a look? "Lu Ping said as he passed a bun to Zi Mu.
"Of course, it's a rare opportunity!" Zi Mu took the bun and was already looking forward to it. Who knows which almighty person's lesson would let me be enlightened and improve by leaps and bounds?
"Hehe." In the end, a senior at the side chuckled. It was obvious that he heard the conversation between the two and could see Zi Mu's anticipation. As for the meaning of the smile, it was needless to say.
Zi Mu could only pretend that he didn't hear it. He ate the bun with Lu Ping while rushing towards the direction where everyone was rushing towards. After eating the bun, Lu Ping passed a carrot to Zi Mu. Zi Mu took it and started chewing. Then, he saw Lu Ping feed the carrot to the rabbit in his arms.
"Uh … …" Zi Mu was stunned. The carrot in his mouth seemed to have changed taste. After swallowing it with difficulty, he started feeding the rabbit in his arms as if nothing had happened.
Following the direction of the crowd, the two finally arrived at the Seven-Star Building. The newcomers' lesson was arranged to be held here. Just as Zi Mu guessed, those who came to listen were not only the second, third and fourth courtyard's senior students. There were also students from the Seven-Star Valley and even the seven peaks who came to listen. Outside the Seven-Star Building, there were more than a thousand people. No classroom in the Seven-Star Building could accommodate this number. Hence, everyone just gathered outside the building. As for where the lesson would be held, neither Lu Ping nor Zi Mu knew. They came rather late and were at the periphery of the crowd. Looking around, they could only see the back of their heads. They didn't know where to look.
After asking the students next to them, they found out that they should look at the roof of the Seven-Star Building. However, there was no one there. It seemed that the great teacher hadn't arrived yet.
"Do you know who will be giving the lesson today?" Zi Mu continued to ask the people next to him.
"It should be Alkaid Peak. Last time, Alioth Peak sent their first disciple, Chen Chu! The person who came from Alioth Peak can't be too weak, right? "The person who answered was a little excited. If the person giving the lesson was the first disciple of the seven peaks, his level was not low. Apart from Academician Seven and Lu Chenfeng, there were very, very few people who could stand shoulder to shoulder with the first disciples of the seven peaks. Alioth Peak sent their first disciple, Chen Chu, so the people from the other peaks couldn't be too weak either. Hence, everyone's expectations for this lesson were unprecedentedly high. It wasn't often that there were so many people listening in.
"Ah, we've already missed a lesson," Zi Mu said to Lu Ping, a little vexed. During the previous lesson, the two of them were serving Rabbit on Alioth Peak.
However, Lu Ping didn't pay much attention to this. He just looked at the roof of the Seven-Star Building and said worriedly, "It's so far away. Can you hear it?"
"How can I not hear it?" Zi Mu didn't say anything, but the person who had given the lesson to the two of them laughed. "What level is your Soul of Cry? You're still worried about this. "
"Uh …" This question stumped Lu Ping. His Soul of Cry was connected. All six of his spirits were connected. However, he couldn't use any of them right now!
As that person spoke, it was obvious that he had also examined Lu Ping slightly. However, he immediately examined him again, and then a third time. In the end, he couldn't help but size Lu Ping up. "Where did you come from?"
"Zhenfeng College, Lu Ping." Lu Ping introduced himself.
"Uh …" This time, it was the person's turn to be speechless. What he wanted to express was how an ordinary person without the power of spirit could come here. In the end, the person in front of him reported his origin seriously. Zhenfeng College? Never heard of it. However, the arrogant tone when this guy mentioned the name of the college really made people a little annoyed! This was the North Style Academy. When did it become the turn of a nameless college that no one had ever heard of to show off his superiority? Where did he come from? That's right. When this person heard Lu Ping's answer, he once again had this kind of doubt in his heart.
Just when he was about to ask a few more questions, the crowd suddenly became excited. At the roof of the Seven-Star Building, a figure finally appeared. In the end, when he waved to everyone, everyone became doubtful.
"What's going on? Shouldn't it be Alioth Peak? Why is it someone from Megrez Peak? "Although the person who came didn't disappoint everyone, this doubt was unavoidable.
"Because there will be some matters later, so I exchanged with Alioth Peak. You guys shouldn't be too familiar with me, right?" The person on the roof of the Seven-Star Building said with a smile.
"I don't mind." Everyone shouted.
Megrez Peak, Jin Qi.
