"After all, we are brothers, why don't you say a few words to comfort me?" Tang Bufan looked at Fen Qianji pitifully, with a look of anticipation.
"Okay, then I'll comfort you. They are indeed a little stronger than you, but you are not completely without a chance. At worst, you can give them this chance. There is always next time. If it doesn't work next time, there is always the next time after that. If it doesn't work the next time, there is always the next time after that." Fen Qianji patted Tang Bufan's shoulder and said earnestly.
"Brother, Longyan College has an age limit for enrollment. If you miss this opportunity, there won't be a next time, and there won't be a next time." Tang Bufan wiped his forehead. Was this a consolation? Why did it sound more like a blow?
"There won't be a next time? Well, actually, even if you don't join Longyan College, you can still join other colleges." Fen Qianji said after thinking for a while.
"I have already tried several other colleges, but was rejected every time. The same result will occur if I go again." Tang Bufan said distressedly.
He knew his situation. He had never expected to be selected by Longyan College before, so he participated in the elections of the other three colleges early on. After being eliminated one by one, he chose Longyan College with the idea of giving it a try. If he failed again this time, he would really have no chance at all.
"In that case, you can also try colleges in other countries." Fen Qianji thought about it seriously and said.
"Brother, although other academies also accept disciples from our Anyun country, the selection requirements are higher. I can't even get into my own academy. Do you think others will want me?" Tang Bufan said depressedly.
"Then, I might as well not go to any academy. I'll just travel around the world and practice on my own." Fen Qianji thought more seriously.
"With my talent, unless I have a great adventure, what future can I have by cultivating on my own? I might as well stay in the capital, get married and have children." Tang Bufan looked extremely depressed. How could his consolation make him feel even worse?
After hearing Tang Bufan's words, Mu Hanyan felt a surge of sympathy. Indeed, in his previous life, Tang Bufan, after suffering a series of setbacks, had chosen the path of self-cultivation. Meeting her was considered good luck, but he didn't have much of a future, and his highest achievement was only that of a swordsman.
"This is a good idea. I see Cuihua next door seems to treat you very well. She has a big butt and can give birth to a child. You can marry her and have a son. Then let him join Longyan College in the future. It can be regarded as fulfilling your wish." Fen Qianji's eyes lit up and he patted his head and said.
"Uh..." Tang Bufan stared at Fen Qianji blankly and suddenly wanted to cry.
"What's wrong?" Fen Qianji looked at Tang Bufan strangely.
"No, nothing. Don't say anything and don't comfort me. I want to be alone." Tang Bufan waved his hand and said dejectedly.
"Who is Jingjing? I was wondering why you weren't attracted to Cuihua at all. It turns out you were thinking about Jingjing." Fen Qianji acted as if he suddenly understood something.
"..." Tang Bufan had a dazed look on his face and remained speechless for a long time.
"Poof!" Mu Hanyan almost burst out laughing.
Is the Fen Qianji before him really the same stern and cold Fen Qianji? He's actually learned to comfort people, even though this comfort sounds more like a blow and is filled with a cold sense of humor.
It is true that birds of a feather flock together. Even though he had met Tang Bufan earlier, he had changed so much.
"Mr. Mu, it's you!" Hearing the laughter, Tang Bufan noticed Mu Hanyan in the crowd and shouted in surprise.
He was not angry. After listening to Fen Qianji's comfort that could devastate a person, he would have wanted to laugh if the person who was comforting him was not himself.
"The injuries are almost healed." Although Tang Bufan did not take Fen Qianji's blow to heart, Mu Hanyan still couldn't bear to rub salt into the wound, so she put away her smile and said.
"Thank you, Master Mu, for your concern. I'm all better now." Tang Bufan nodded and asked curiously, "By the way, why are you here?"
When he asked this question, his eyes subconsciously looked towards a pergola at the back of the square. That was the viewing seat specially arranged for the major families and wealthy families of Anyun Kingdom, not only the families in the capital, but also the local lords of the major county cities.
Although it was just a general admissions election, not a grand competition, these aristocratic families still held different statuses, and it was impossible to have them huddled together with the common people. This also gave a glimpse into the hierarchy of the Holy Court Continent.
With Mu Hanyan's identity, she could of course go to the viewing seats without having to squeeze in the crowd to watch the excitement.
"When enrolling students at the Holy Court Academy, they look at their qualifications and abilities, not their family background and status. It's the same no matter where you are. What I hate most in my life are those children from aristocratic families who rely on their family background to be arrogant and self-righteous and show off everywhere, so I have no interest in associating with them." Mu Hanyan said lightly.
"It is truly admirable that Mr. Mu has such a broad mind." Seeing Mu Hanyan's calm and composed look, Tang Bufan was filled with awe.
On the side, Hua Yue and others were sweating profusely.
The sun is a bit strong today. With Miss Mu's wealthy body and lazy and dissolute character, she has no interest in squeezing in the crowd to bask in the sun. In fact, she went to the viewing seats early in the morning.
However, there were quite a few second-generation heirs from the eight great families sitting nearby, many of whom had grudges against Mu Hanyan. The sight of her was like facing a formidable enemy, their eyes fixed on her, their hands clasped behind their backs. This was the capital's famous porcelain doll, Jade Baby. If it accidentally shattered right next to them, there would be no way to explain it.
Mu Hanyan was at a loss for words when she saw the situation. She felt bored and decided to stay away from them. Out of sight, out of mind. Otherwise, if she moved a little, even to drink a cup of tea, there would be so many eyes watching her. It was really scary.
Just now, for example, she felt a slight itch on her face and wanted to scratch it, but as soon as she raised her hand, the people closest to her jumped up as if someone had stepped on their tail. Then, with their hands behind their backs, they looked at Mu Hanyan as if they were facing a great enemy. Mu Hanyan's hand froze in mid-scratch, unable to scratch or not scratch. Paranoia was a disease, and it needed to be treated. But she wasn't a doctor, so she couldn't.
Hua Yue and the others looked at each other in bewilderment. Although they had long known that their master was shameless, he would constantly refresh their cognition, letting them know the truth: there is no most shameless, only more shameless. And he was still so shameless with such a righteous attitude. This kind of mentality is the best in the world!
"Thank you, thank you." Although Miss Mu was thick-skinned, she was still a little embarrassed by Tang Bufan's praise and said politely.
When Huayue and the others heard this, they felt goosebumps all over their bodies under the scorching sun.
