More and more people gathered at the square because Ah Zhu's accommodation had been arranged, which meant she would stay in the academy!

Facing a person who was left behind as an exception, they all wanted to see her beauty. It was said that she was a young girl, without any vitality fluctuations in her body, but the more ordinary she was, the more extraordinary she seemed. The academy's vision had never been wrong.

Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang stood in front of the crowd, while Wang Ling lowered his eyes, looking a little lonely. No matter how proud he was, he could not avoid the fate of losing one position. From now on, the only ones who would weigh on him were Xia Xiao and Long Suihong, but now there was also Ah Zhu. In the past, Wang Ling would have wanted to make trouble, but now he could not.

In the previous battle, Wang Ling returned to the border of the empire with the national students. The first wave of wild beasts was easy to deal with, but the second wave was not so easy. Five people died, three of whom were members of the royal family. His Nanshang’s strength in the academy was not as good as before. Fortunately, there was no fighting now, otherwise they would definitely suffer.

After waiting for a long time, Hu Bugui and Ah Zhu came down together. They had walked this mountain road before, but they had never left the peach forest and reached the mountainside. But this time, she was said to have gone to the top of the mountain. That distant place was far more than just a real mountain top. It was a symbol, an adjective rather than a noun, representing strength.

There were so many people, and according to seniority, they had to call each other "senior brothers and sisters", but Ah Zhu couldn't call them all one by one, so she bowed deeply and hoped that everyone would take good care of her. Her casually tied ponytail flew in an arc in the air, attracting the attention of many men, while the women secretly envied her. When this girl came, who would be the next to be targeted? The young talents from various countries would shift their attention again.

Standing on the steps, Hu Bugui always had a smile on his face. He raised his hand to ask everyone to be quiet, and he was going to announce something important.

"In this Class A mission, two teachers and ten students died, but the academy also welcomed a new student."

With Hu Bugui by their side, the Daxia students who had previously participated in the battle had not yet felt the ferocity and cruelty of the wild beasts, but the Nanshang and Tianmeng countries were really attacked by fierce beasts. That kind of battle was enough to kill the teachers of the Venerable Realm, so you can imagine how fierce it was.

Ah Zhu took a half step forward, smiling sweetly, but a little shyly. These people in front of her were radiant and well-dressed, and they seemed to be in a different world from her. She had always been brave, she had fished in the river on rainy days, and had climbed onto the roof when she was very young. But in front of them, she was still a little timid. One or two was fine, but more than three hundred people made Ah Zhu's chest feel stuffy and she couldn't breathe.

"Earlier on the top of the mountain, the dean personally predicted Ah Zhu's talent. Since the establishment of the academy, she is the most talented person!"

Ah Zhu knew about this before, and was not surprised at all. In her opinion, this sentence was just proud, not indulgent, because she had no accurate concept in her mind, and she didn't even know how long the academy had been established. But the others were shocked, this span was too long, not ten or a hundred years, but since the founding of the academy. In this long period of time, Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang could not be ranked in the top, but Ah Zhu, since he crushed all the predecessors?

Wait, Xia Xiao caught one point and was a little surprised.

"What you just said was the dean, not the vice-dean?"

Shu Shuang nodded, her eyebrows trembling slightly because of the shock in her heart. The dean is a god. After founding the Ningshen Academy a hundred years ago, he left the Great Wilderness and went to the outside world. But since Ah Zhu's existence can make the dean come back again, what kind of charm should she have? Shu Shuang looked at Ah Zhu holding Doudou, and inexplicably felt a sense of oppression, which was innate, like a low-level wild beast seeing a higher-level existence.

"Long Li, I'll give you a D-level mission. Use half the afternoon to help Ah Zhu get familiar with the academy."

Long Li was a daughter of Gou Longbang. Two of her three roommates had left, so Room 505 was deserted. But she didn't want Ah Zhu to move in. It must be tiring to get along with someone of that status. But she didn't dare to refuse, so she had to agree. She thought to herself that she was really unlucky. It seemed that she would not dare to let anyone in the dormitory in the future!

Ah Zhu was a top-ranking person, and everyone would be afraid of him and dare not provoke him. But Long Li was overthinking, and her eyes, which had been lowered secretly, would soon regain vitality because of Ah Zhu's chatterbox.

"Go ahead. I'll come back to you tomorrow and give you private lessons."

"Thank you, Master."

Ah Zhu bowed to the uncle in the cafeteria today, bowed to the dean and the vice dean, bowed to everyone, and bowed to Hu Bugui. Her gift was a bit casual, and the price was lower. How could the dean's valuable advice be compared with duck leg rice? But this was Ah Zhu's heart.

Walking down the stairs, Ah Zhu walked very quickly, and finally even jogged, her floral skirt swaying in the wind.

When they got closer, everyone noticed her clothes. This girl, indeed, came from the mountains. She perfectly interpreted the rural and forest style. But this became her plus point as a genius. Poor people are always respected because of one advantage, but if the rich children have one shortcoming, it is an unforgivable sin. Who made the latter start from a higher point than the former? Who made the world unfair.

Many people in the crowd thought that Ah Zhu was lucky. Their companions were eliminated by the academy even if they tried their best. But Ah Zhu did not have any fluctuations in vitality, and he stayed here with his talent. Such a gap was really enviable!

Being in the same class with such a genius is a blessing for the hundreds of people present, but it is also a challenge. After all, the original light has been completely covered up, with only a few rays of light lingering in the gaps.

Ah Zhu followed Long Li back to the dormitory building, and everyone dispersed. Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang went to the small pond to practice, and the latter looked at the ground, worried.

"Don't be angry if I didn't behave well this morning."

The dogtail grass in autumn broke at the touch and scattered all over the ground. The pond with some willow leaves floating on it also became desolate. A few lotus flowers withered and returned to the mud, leaving only a few half-yellow and half-green lotus leaves floating on the water. The autumn water was still, and Shu Shuang's reflection was also still. She walked gracefully and shook her head. If she had a hairpin in her hair, it would have been very beautiful when it shook, but without it, only the person was beautiful.

Shu Shuang didn't take it to heart, but she felt a little uncomfortable at the time. At this moment, her mind was on Ah Zhu. She always felt that the arrival of that girl would be an extraordinary turning point. This uneasiness made her heart beat faster, and it didn't calm down for a long time. Just like the lake surface that was rippled by Xia Xiao's stone, after being quiet for a long time, she was reluctant to let go of this ripple.

They sat cross-legged and practiced, by the window of dormitory 505, and Azhu asked Long Li.

"Are they very affectionate?"

"Legendary figures in the academy, a pair of immortal lovers."

On the way to the fifth floor, Ah Zhu asked at least fifteen questions, and Long Li had no time to answer them, because some things cannot be explained in a few words. For example, what does the academy teach, how to practice, how to divide the realm of practice, and why? Such questions can be a lecture, and it will take at least two or three hours to finish. But for Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang, Long Li can describe them in the simplest language.

By the pond, the two sat quietly, and the three animals stood, flew, or lay down, like a normal state, and also like a kind of eternity. No one doubted their feelings, just as the peach blossoms will bloom again next year.

On countless nights before going to bed, Long Li also wanted to find a man like Xia Xiao to be by her side, but she was not Shu Shuang, so how could she dare to have such high standards?

“No wonder we stay together every day.”

Ah Zhu took a few glances, but was mostly looking at Ju Mang. Compared to the suave, sunny and cheerful Ju Mang, there was nothing about Xia Xiao, the taciturn man, that could attract her.

Long Li divided up her own dorm for Ah Zhu, and she understood immediately. Because she was lively and liked to laugh, she could bring people closer, so Long Li kindly reminded her that the academy would reject people, and if they didn't perform well, they would be expelled. This was not the first time Ah Zhu had heard such words, so she was particularly worried.

Hearing that there were books in the Little West Building, Ah Zhu wanted to learn a little about cultivation. But she couldn't understand those heavenly books at all. Ah Zhu's education level was far lower than that of the students in the academy. She could only read. When she was in the mountain village, Ah Zhu thought that reading was enough, but she didn't think it was just a starting point. After half a day, she didn't understand anything. She went to the cafeteria with a sullen heart and ate four bowls of large wontons with meat filling, which were very fragrant.

That night, Ah Zhu was lying on the bed in the dormitory, and said quietly:

"Sister Long Li, I feel like my future isn't that bright anymore."
