Roddy has always been a very responsible person. He does not have much ambitions and likes a peaceful, free and lazy life - swearing to the omnipotent God that Roddy's greatest wish is to be able to pass the swordsman next month's academy's swordsmanship assessment... This is already the biggest wish for Roddy when the dead ghost father was alive...

Of course, it would be better if God could give him a pretty good-looking person before his 18th birthday to end his embarrassing virginity...

Unfortunately, Roddy knew that his wish might be difficult to realize... The fact is obvious. Although he is still very confident in his swordsmanship at this moment, he knows that his biggest problem is not to pass the exam...but the tuition required to continue the next stage of the course after passing the exam, there is no settlement at all... However, if he can get the top three in the swordsmanship assessment, he can get a generous bonus, which is enough for his entire tuition at the college in the future.

But Roddy's mind was pretty normal. He knew that those who won the top three every year were either the sons of a certain count's family or the sons of a general's family... Damn, those people were not short of money at all, so why did they still come to compete with us poor children for such a pitiful little bonus? For those people, the titles of the top three were just titles used by nobles to show off each other in addition to playing games...

As for the issue of women, Roddy dared not expect anything more. To be honest, he looked pretty good. He had a tall and upright figure that ordinary nobles did not have. From the outside, he was still a standard man. Unfortunately, God seemed to deliberately punish him, leaving a mark of life on his face - a black, palm-sized birthmark covering his left half of his cheek, turning his face that was supposed to be a fascinating girl into a veritable Yin-Yang face...

Roddy was completely discouraged. He knew very well that if he wanted a woman to like him, unless the woman was blind, or that woman had a problem with her brain... Roddy had no interest in blind or a woman with a problem with her brain...

Roddy sat on the only bedside in the room and took off the only valuable thing in the room from the wall - the Imperial Standard Warrior Sword - this sword was bought by Roddy for three silver coins. In fact, he was not qualified to use this sword at this moment because his swordsman assessment will not be held until next month. Before he passed the assessment, he was not qualified to wear weapons. You must know that in the empire, except for nobles, professional soldiers and people with various warrior titles, ordinary civilians are not qualified to carry any weapons!

Fortunately, he also has a student certificate from Imperial College. If he has a student certificate, he is allowed to wear weapons within the Imperial College school.

Roddy picked up his only clean scarf and gently wiped the sword body of the sword. He recalled the sword moves and techniques taught by Teacher Sharu this morning in the swordsmanship class.

In fact, Teacher Sharu knew that these young students under him would participate in the annual swordsmanship assessment at the Imperial Academy next month, so he conducted special training these days. Roddy is a student that Sharu admires very much. Sharu had told Roddy privately that according to Roddy's strength, passing the assessment is almost certain, and his strength has long exceeded the standard of a first-level swordsman. In fact, according to Teacher Sharu, Roddy is the best student he has taught in many years and is a genius. Of course, although everyone knows that Roddy is indeed good, no one has said that Teacher Sharu's words about genius.

Take it seriously, after all, the old man has never taught a student with a level 3 swordsman or above in many years. What kind of genius can such a bad teacher teach? The only trouble for Roddy to pass the assessment is to never meet the Rock Instructor who always likes to oppose Teacher Sharu. People in the academy know that Rock Instructor has always been not very harmonious with Teacher Sharu. The origin of the matter seems to be due to his admiration for a female teacher several years ago. The two always find opportunities to try to cause trouble for each other - this time it was Teacher Sharu's students who participated in the assessment, and Rock Instructor is likely to be one of the referees of the assessment.

If Roddy's mood is at this moment, it is: depressed, depressed, or depressed!

After hanging up the sword, Roddy rummaged through the closet for a long time, and finally found a clean and beautiful uniform of a warrior student. He decided to go outside and take a walk. He hesitated for a moment, and did not bring his sword... Maybe he would go out of the school and buy some cheap bread to come back as tomorrow's food - he didn't want to go to the street with his weapons, and then be captured by the patrol soldiers back to the public security station!

Roddy walked out of her room, and the corridor was filled with a scent of dampness and mold. Although he had been tortured by this smell for almost two years, Roddy still couldn't adapt.

This is the cheapest student dormitory for Imperial College. The price of living in a year is only five silver coins, but the environment is also terrifyingly poor.

This still depends on the blessing of Dandong, the great sage of the Empire two hundred years ago. That great scholar launched a series of reforms within the Empire, greatly increasing the national strength of the Empire. In his later years, he persuaded the empire's emperor to allow civilians to study in the Imperial Academy. He personally served as the president of the Imperial Academy. Although he was strongly protested by the nobles, he still set up a piece of land in the Imperial Academy to accommodate civilian students. The building where Roddy lived at this moment was the residential area for civilian students to live in when Dandong was the principal.

To be honest, this building is pretty good. It can accommodate 200 civilian students, and each can live in a single room - although this single room is too small, not much larger than a pigeon cage. However, after Dandong's death, the principals of the Empire were all nobles, and it was particularly favorable for those men not to completely drive civilian students out of the Imperial Academy - of course, it was also in respect of His Majesty the Emperor of the Imperial V. However, these noble masters did not spend another copper plate for the renovation of this building - this has always been like this for two hundred years!

Roddy walked slowly down the stairs carefully, and he was very careful in every step. God knew whether the wooden floors could bear their own weight after two hundred years of corrosion. He didn't want to be the first swordsman in the empire's hundreds of years of history to fall off the stairs and fall to death.

Although there were shocking creaking sounds coming from time to time, the stairs finally reached their heads. Roddy pushed open the door with hope and walked out of the building.

The weather seemed good tonight, and there was a moon in the sky! He passed by from the small road, walked to another building where civilian students also lived, and shouted to the second floor: "Star!!!!"

Without waiting for him to shout a second time, a window on the second floor was opened with a bang, revealing a head with long hair with colorful hair.

"Roddy! Idiot, you have a little voice!" Star's face was a little panicked. He looked left and right, then opened the window completely, stretched out his whole body, and jumped off the window on the second floor.

His body was very agile. When he landed, he skillfully rolled on the ground, slowing down the impact, and then stood up easily and patted the dust on his body. Zhan Yan smiled at Roddy and said, "Okay, my Swordsman, let's go."

Roddy frowned and looked at him: "You are climbing into the window again? Are you not afraid of being seen? You know, although it is night, you still have to be careful!"

If Roddy is a civilian student with difficulties in life, then Star is a veritable poor man.

He couldn't afford the rent of five silver coins a year. Since last month, Star was kicked out of the residential area by the school. If he hadn't paid the full tuition for one year, he would probably not have even been able to maintain his identity as a student.

However, people like Star will not be honest and obedient. The school’s security team just monitored him and moved out, but he secretly moved back to the room by himself.

Anyway, there are very few civilian students in the Imperial Academy in recent years. Even if he moved out of Star’s house, no one would move into it. Moreover, the bad environment here and the smell of dilapidated buildings that have been corroded for hundreds of years have made the school’s security team absolutely not come here to check it. So Star blatantly lived in vain!

Star patted Roddy on the shoulder. He was short and was a head shorter than Roddy. But he had a face that Roddy envied very much. That handsome face was enough to make Star ease in front of girls. According to Star himself, he said goodbye to the embarrassing virgin three years ago.

If Star's identity as a warlock has never made Roddy envious, this one made Roddy's envious eyes red!

Facing his best friend, Roddy sighed: "Okay, where are we going?"

Star's eyes rolled and whispered in a mysterious tone: "Rody, do you want to make some money? I've just got a way now!"

make money?

Roddy's eyes immediately lit up! What he needs most now is money! There is no money. Even if he passed the swordsmanship assessment next month and became a real swordsman, he did not have enough money to pay the next year's tuition fee.

"Make money? What's your way?" Roddy stared at his good friend with wide eyes.

Star chuckled in a low voice: "This method is a bit risky, but I have tried it. Let me be honest with you, my tuition fee for next year has been settled. I was still worried because I think this method is not suitable for you, but seeing that you are almost crazy about money recently, I'd better take you to do it together."

Roddy immediately showed a vigilant look on his face. He knew too well that his good friend's lawless personality. From his tone, this way to make money was obviously not an open and upright way.

"Don't look at me like this! Roddy!" Star pushed Roddy and pulled him into a remote path in the academy. After looking at the fact that there were indeed no one on the left, he whispered: "I have met a few people recently. They are all doing some special businesses. Now they just need a few people... For temporary, get the money after doing it, and then go their own way! Of course, you need to take a little risk. But I have tried it, and I only did it once, which is enough for me to earn a year's tuition fee!"

"Is it...is it an illegal business?" Roddy struggled to spit out the word "illegal".

Star rolled his eyes and showed a "nonsense" expression.

"Okay!" Roddy sighed: "You take me to see first!"

As Roddy nodded slowly, he didn't know that this nod was the beginning of the endless colorful legend in his body!
