The three words 'Brother Yue' echoed in Yue Xuan's mind for a long time.
The corners of his mouth curved slightly. This Xiaoniu was usually not afraid of anything, big or small. But he was a man of his word, and he actually called him Brother Yue.
"When will Master Xiao teach me his secret technique?" Yue Xuan asked, shrugging his shoulders and raising his handsome eyebrows.
"As long as Brother Yue says a word, you can learn it anytime you want!" Xiao Niu slapped his chest fiercely, temporarily suppressing the surging excitement.
Yue Xuan's expression was slightly stunned at this moment. Then he coughed slightly and pretended to be a big brother, "I will come to see Master Xiao again in the future. I have to go to Yueshui City to take the college assessment."
"I'm going too! Wherever brother goes, I will go too." Xiao Niu shouted loudly.
"But, can you sign up?" Yue Xuan was a little doubtful after hearing this.
"You can register for the academy by yourself. I think back then, when I was in the academy, I was still a top-notch expert."
"Okay! Stop bragging. It would be great if you can really sign up. It will be easier for you to teach me in the future. Today is the recruitment date for the disciples of the world. I have to rush there." Yue Xuan's anxious words stopped him from reverie.
The flute cow.
Even before the inn's rent was refunded, the two of them hurried out of the door...
...
Beginning of spring 1718
The ice and snow are gradually melting, and the weather is turning colder and warmer.
It happens to be the day when Tiandang College - Yueshui City Branch is enrolling students.
On South Street of Yueshui City.
The door of the academy, which had been closed in the past, welcomed all kinds of people to watch. The old and the weak, women and children, strong men, young people, and even children without all their teeth.
Entering Tiandang Academy is what people here look forward to the most.
Especially this year, Tiandang Academy has expanded its enrollment and provided new outstanding teachers, which has attracted the attention of many aristocratic families. As today, the five most famous families are the Yue family, the Yan family, the Yin family, the Liu family and the Zhao family.
They are all gathered here. Originally it was supposed to be the six major families.
Just because the Wu family caused trouble, they were disqualified from participating in the enrollment...
As the door of Tiandang Academy - Yueshui City Branch opened wide, many people swarmed in and saw the slightly aged martial arts square. Next, all admissions and tests will be completed here.
.
Four tables have been prepared in the martial arts square.
Sitting at each of the four tables was a mysterious man wearing a strange smiling mask. No one knew the identity of these people. In the past, there were usually only two mysterious men, but this time there were two more people responsible for registration.
Seeing such an unusual situation, many people started talking...
"Dong! Dong! Dong..." In the martial arts square, two muscular men with huge backs and thick waists were beating the giant drums hard.
The sound of drums shook the entire Yueshui City into silence.
From the side of the square, a white-haired old man walked up. The old man had a solemn face and stood with his hands behind his back. There was a small red dot between his two white eyebrows. This man was the admissions inspector this time - Huo Chun.
.
The inspector was quite satisfied with the solemn and tense atmosphere in the audience. He cleared Qingsang slightly and said, "According to the regulations of Tiandang College - Yueshui City Branch, the enrollment will be expanded to 200 students this year. That is,
He said that a total of 400 students will be recruited this time. First, the family members will sign up, and then they will sign up independently. If the quota is full, there will be no more opportunities."
After finishing this explanation, Huo Chun gently stroked his white beard and said: "I, Huo Chun, in the name of the inspector of admissions, officially announce that admissions have begun. Now, the families who have reported their names will go to the admissions.
Click to register.”
In response to the shouting, the audience began to get excited.
The news of expanded enrollment was undoubtedly a bombshell. Originally, no one knew that such a thing would happen.
This means that this year more young monks with no background will be able to be trained by the academy...
"How's it going? Is there any news about Xuan'er?" Yue Buqi asked Li Qiushui with great concern. With slightly trembling hands, he anxiously asked Yue Fan and the other two people.
For this recruitment, Yue Buqi did not use a large lineup, leaving only Yue Fan and three others. Li Qiushui was also coming, but he was still in seclusion a few days ago.
"Yin family!" Huo Chun shouted first on the stage.
After Yue Buqi heard this, he took a long breath. He thought it was a good thing he didn't report to Yue's house.
Paper cannot contain the fire, Yue Buqi only wants Yue Xuan to return quickly.
"One person from the Yin family has registered! Next, the Liu family!"
"There are two people from the Liu family who have registered. The next one is the Yan family!"
...
The speed of registration on the stage was far beyond Yue Buqi's imagination. If it continued like this, it would be the Yue family's turn soon. But Yue Xuan was not there.
Sure enough, the words "Yue family" came out of Yue Buqi's mouth at the same time as he was worried.
Yue Buqi was slightly startled and anxious.
"Yue family! Yue family!" Huo Chun impatiently shouted twice.
"The Yue family is here!" Yue Buqi stepped forward, raised his hands to Huo Chun, and shouted loudly.
Huo Chun looked at Yue Buqi, his expression changed slightly, but he still put on that air, "The Yue family I was at that time turned out to be the head of the Yue Buqi clan. Your Yue family once brought a good seedling to our Tiandang College. Now it's been a long time.
After a few years, I wonder if these younger generations have the same demeanor as their predecessors?"
Yue Buqi smiled slightly. The ancestor Yue Buqi mentioned was naturally referring to his second son, Yue Xian. Yue Xian's deeds in Tiandang Academy were known to everyone.
"Of course there is, and my in-law's family has already produced another genius! He is exactly that person's son!"
"Oh?" Huo Chun's eyes suddenly lit up. If he really is a genius, the reputation of Tiandang Academy will definitely be even greater. After thinking about it, he still said slowly: "Even so! Then why not sign up?"
After a helpless smile, Yue Buqi said respectfully: "My little grandson Yuexuan has not returned from his trip with his master. He should have dared to come now. I hope Mr. Huo can take some time off."
"Even though he is a genius, he has no sense of time. How can I come to Tiandang Academy just when I want to?"
Huo Chun curled his lips and chuckled dissatisfiedly.
"Yue must understand. I hope Mr. Huo will give him a chance and leave a place for little Sun Yuexuan. Yue promises..."
"Will Chief Yue sign up? If not, I will be called the next clan!"
Huo Chun interrupted Yue Buqi's words without even listening. There was a hint of ridicule in his words.
This undoubtedly gave Yue Buqi a blow in the head, but it did not give him any face at all. This caused a lot of sneering laughter from around him.
"Mr. Huo is highly respected, why do you have to care about such a trivial matter? If he had entered another college that day, I think he would have been a strong rival!" A beautiful woman shouted from the side.
Following the sound, he saw Yan Meijin questioning him in the audience.
Huo Chun naturally knew that this woman was not simple and was related to the Holy Emperor, so he did not dare to neglect her at all. Although he was afraid, he still said respectfully: "It turns out to be Miss Yan. Huo Chun knew that Miss Yan had some dealings with the Yue family, but this rule still cannot be followed
Damn it! The worst that can happen is that Miss Yan will report it to the Holy Emperor!"
"you......"
Yan Meijin was stunned and speechless.
This kind of respect was much richer than that of Yue Buqi, and the speech process was completely bowed down. However, he still didn't give him any face.
At this time, Huo Chun looked at the embarrassed expressions of Yue Buqi and others. He shook his head slightly and said in his heart: Hey, Grand Master Zhang, Grand Master Zhang, I have helped you all. But after thinking about it again, I felt something was wrong.
"For Miss Yan's sake, give Patriarch Yue another chance. Will Patriarch Yue sign up?"
Huo Chun shouted loudly again. He really didn't have the guts to offend Yan Meijin. In other words, the power behind Yan Meijin was much greater than that of Grand Master Zhang. This shout was just to make the Yue family and others retreat.
"Grandpa! Then let's..." Yue Yan on the side asked anxiously.
Feeling helpless, Yue Buqi nodded and let these three people go ahead.
"There are three people in the Yue family's registration! Already registered!" Huo Chun's strange eyes flashed past, but Yue Buqi caught him firmly.
According to common sense, even the principal of this branch of the college would have to give Yue Buqi three thumbs up.
But this Huo Chun is like this. Everyone in the Yue family knows the weirdness...
