Chapter 469 Shao (Third update, please vote for the monthly ticket)
Huodu Academy is located on the edge of Huodu. From a geographical point of view, it is far away from the Fire Tribe Alliance Academy, which is located in the center of Huodu.
The teaching environment here is not as good as the Fire Tribe Alliance Academy, not to mention the teaching staff.
People in the Fire Tribe Alliance try their best to enter the Fire Tribe Alliance Academy and stay away from Huodu Academy.
Only the children of witches and leaders of some small tribes will have no choice but to choose to enter this academy. The rest of the students are outsiders.
There are people from the Ice Bear Tribe, people from the Miao Tribe who were placed in the Miao Tribe by the Ice Bear Tribe, people from the Western Prairie, or some other tribes that have not been absorbed by the Fire Tribe Alliance.
The personnel here are complicated, and most of them do not have the habit of cleanliness of the Fire Tribe Alliance people, which leads to the whole campus being dirty and messy. This is also one of the reasons why students of the Fire Tribe Alliance stay away.
The teachers who teach in this school are mostly people who love this profession but do not have the ability to enter the Fire Tribe Alliance College, so the teaching quality is much worse than that of the Fire Tribe Alliance College.
Among the many teachers, there is only one exception, and he is the music teacher Shao.
Shao is a teacher at the Fire Tribe Alliance College, but he will come to the Fire Capital College to teach music classes in his spare time and teach how to play the musical instrument.
He also teaches some self-composed minor tunes, which are mostly peaceful and tranquil, and are quite well received.
Today is the day he teaches, and the students sat down in the playground early, looking forward to the arrival of this teacher.
Soon, Shao, with his hair tied up, came out of the gate of the academy. He was wearing a linen shirt with wide sleeves, which was a typical dress of the Yin tribe.
Shao walked rhythmically, neither hurried nor slow, neither tight nor slow. He casually looked at the students on the playground, nodding and smiling from time to time.
The smile was for the teachers sitting below. They were teachers from Huodu College. Every time Shao gave a lecture, there were many teachers sitting below.
Walking up to the built high platform, Xi did not speak, but took out a Xi from the sack, closed his eyes and began to play.
Xi's voice was thick and medium, and Shao's self-composed tune was soothing and peaceful, which could calm people's hearts. The playground, which had been chaotic because of his arrival, gradually became quiet.
After the song was finished, Shao put the xiao beside him, glanced at the students below, and began to teach.
"Play xiao, breath, tongue, fingers, we have already talked about breath, today we will talk about the application of tongue."
Shao's voice is not loud, but the clear voice can be clearly heard by everyone in the large playground. This is an ability given by the sound totem, and Shao is a leader in this aspect.
"The tonguing that is often used in playing xiao, especially the passionate and cheerful rhythm, the exciting and lively tune, all require this skill."
Shao said, picked up the xiao beside him, played a lively and cheerful tune, and demonstrated it to everyone.
"It has very high requirements for the sound. It needs to be solid, clean, elastic, and the rhythm should be even and steady. The techniques involved..."
Not many students listened to him carefully. Most of the students were staring blankly with their chins in their hands. They liked this class, but they didn't like this part of the class.
Shao didn't care about their reactions. As a member of the music tribe, he was committed to promoting music. As long as these people liked music, it was fine. As for learning, not everyone has musical talent.
He knew why these people gathered here, and he was willing to use this as a way to pave the way for the promotion of music. Only hard work can bring rewards. You can't tie others down to promote music.
After explaining the pronunciation, he let a few talented students try it, and the course entered the next stage:
asking questions.
Yes, you read it right, it's about politics. Although
Shao's musical talent is well known, what really made him famous in the Fire Tribe Alliance was not his musical talent, but his sensitivity to politics.
But before gaining these two recognitions, he was most appreciated for his outstanding learning ability.
He was the first batch of students in the Fire Tribe Alliance Academy, and also the first batch of people who were transferred from students to teachers. Among the students who became teachers in the same batch, he was also the best.
He was once widely followed, and the second-generation tapir witch once asked him to be his deputy, but he refused on the grounds of concentrating on his studies.
Later, his musical talent gradually emerged and was appreciated by the Totem of the Sound Tribe. The Sound Totem once invited him to be the next generation of the Sound Witch.
But he also refused, and the reason was still that he wanted to concentrate on his studies.
This is a panacea-like reason, but he really focused on this, and the Fifth Xuan also praised Shao for this, which made him get wider attention.
Later, Shao's sharp political sense was discovered, and many small and medium-sized tribes asked him to be the current witch or leader, letting him choose, but he refused one by one.
Including Ri Tuteng, in the face of Xin's repeated rejections, he also tried to invite Shao, but sorry, Shao still didn't give him face. Concentrate on academic research
, this is the reason he gave, with the Fifth Xuan's previous praise as an endorsement, no one dared to force him.
In addition to the second-generation tapir witch inviting him to be the vice-president of the Fire Tribe Alliance Academy, the third-generation tapir witch also invited him to be the president, but he still refused.
He has spent half his life constantly rejecting any positions. Apart from teaching, he spends most of his time studying.
Shao is the only one who can freely read books in the Tapir Temple, including the history of the Fire Tribe, besides the Tapir Shaman, the Eighth Generation Shaman, and Chief Stone. All of them are open to him. Even
the books written by the Eighth Generation Shaman sometimes ask him for help.
This is a legendary person, but he has no ambitions. He just studies, studies, and studies every day.
In addition to studying, the only obsession that people can see of him is to promote music.
"Do you have any doubts today?"
Shao's clear voice rang out on the playground, and the students and teachers sitting below raised their hands.
He randomly pointed to a person, who was the vice-president of the Fire Capital Academy.
"Has Xin really lost the qualification to compete for the Ninth Generation Shaman?"
When this question was asked, many teachers and students immediately showed excited expressions on their faces. They obviously wanted to ask the same question.
Shao did not rush to answer, but frowned and thought for a while before slowly speaking: "If she really has the blood of the gods on the Mountain of Gods, then she has almost lost the qualifications to become the ninth-generation witch."
This is what everyone is most concerned about recently, because the matter of Ganymede has spread in the Fire Tribe Alliance, and because the situation of Hermes has also spread in the Fire Tribe Alliance.
At first, everyone's attention was on these two things themselves, but gradually someone pointed out that these people from the Mountain of Gods all have blond hair and blue eyes, so the topic dragged Xin into it.
Many people began to maliciously slander Xin behind her back, calling her a spy from the Mountain of Gods.
Most of those who made slanderous remarks were out of jealousy. Xin was too good. She shone brightly in the Fire Tribe Alliance all the way. She blocked countless people's paths and offended countless people because of her arrogant personality.
There were too many people in the Sun Tribe who were dissatisfied with her because she did not give face to the Sun Totem.
The difference between Xin and Shao can be seen from this incident. Although both rejected the Sun Totem, Shao did it without leaving any trace. Even though Xin finally sat in the position of witch, she was still envied by some people.
"She lost her qualification because she was a spy from the Mountain of Gods?"
A student shouted below, hoping that the world would not be in chaos. Shao glanced at him, and the student was so scared that he hid behind the classmates next to him.
"Rumors stop at the wise. I believe Xin is not a spy."
Shao said affirmatively without any doubt.
"Then why did she lose the qualification to become the ninth generation witch?"
the vice-president asked again.
"Because she might be a divine totem. It's not good to let a divine totem be a witch. That's too disrespectful to divine totems."
Shao's smile made people feel like spring breeze, and many people laughed along.
"Then she is still a Japanese witch, and she won't be a Japanese witch in the future?"
another student asked.
"I think her identity will not change until she proves whether she is a god or not. Everyone should know how much the Japanese totem expects excellent witches."
There was another kind of laughter from the audience. Everyone knew that the Japanese totem had been eyeing Xin for a long time, and they also knew that he had invited the teacher on the podium, but unfortunately he was rejected.
"Teacher, if Xin withdraws from the competition, who will become the ninth-generation witch?"
This student's question made Shao's eyes flash with a gleam of light, but the light flashed and disappeared, and few people saw it.
"If Xin comes out to run for the ninth-generation witch, she will have the final say. If Xin does not participate, then there will be no one to stand alone. In the end, it will just be a matter of a carp leaping over a dragon's gate, and each will rely on their own abilities."
Shao said with a smile, and he seemed to be very happy to see such a scene.
"Let's discuss Xin's question here. After all, we are asking about politics, not gossip. Do you have any other questions?"
He did not want to dwell on this topic too much, so he changed the subject.
"Teacher, my father has a doubt."
A student stepped forward and took the initiative to ask for help.
"Please speak."
Shao extended his right hand forward and made a gesture of invitation.
"My father is a leader of a tribe that was held captive by that nasty fellow Ganymede. He sent someone to ask me what to do."
The student's question successfully attracted everyone's attention.
Shao thought for a moment and replied, "Your best choice is to go to the dojo immediately and tell the gatekeeper about this matter. Then someone will contact you. You should be able to meet the top leaders of the Fire Tribe Alliance, and they will give you an accurate answer."
"Is this...really possible?"
He had no right to enter the dojo.
"Let the vice-president accompany you. This is not a trivial matter."
Shao looked at the vice-president who had just asked the question.
The vice-president stood up and nodded, then turned around and was about to take the student out.
"Are there any other students who have encountered this problem? It's better to go together, it will be more convenient."
Shao called the vice-president and asked again. Sure enough, several students stood up hesitantly and finally left with the vice-president.
"Next, do you have any other questions?"
Shao waved his hands to attract everyone's attention and spoke.
Immediately, a student raised his hand and began to ask questions.
