Baili Hongzhuang didn't pay any attention to the imaginations of the two young ones. In any case, she thought that Bai Junyu's enthusiasm towards Xia Zhiqing was not a bad thing.
The other students looked at Baili Hongzhuang and Bai Junyu heading towards the back mountain with envy in their eyes.
Training in the back mountain was their dream.
Special enrollment students were a completely special existence within the academy.
When Baili Hongzhuang and Bai Junyu arrived at the back mountain, they found that Dongfang Yu and the others had already arrived.
The martial arts practice field in the back mountain was much wider compared to the ordinary students' practice field, but at a glance, there were only a few students.
Dongfang Yu, Gong Shaoqing, and Liu Qinyue were here, along with three other people Baili Hongzhuang didn't recognize.
At this moment, Fu Hongbo's figure appeared in the sight of everyone.
"Everyone is already here. Let's welcome the two new students joining us this year—Baili Hongzhuang and Bai Junyu."
As Fu Hongbo's words fell, Dongfang Yu and the others applauded, the loud sound echoing in the back mountain.
"Yesterday, Dongfang Yu should have already introduced you to the situation of the academy. Our special enrollment students' cultivation is not limited to the academy. Most of the time, it takes place outside the academy..."
From Fu Hongbo's words, Baili Hongzhuang learned that the special enrollment students' cultivation mostly took place outside the academy.
Currently, not all the students were here. Some of them were still out on training and hadn't returned yet.
Today was the first day of school, so they were gathered here for that reason. They didn't need to gather here on regular days.
The students' cultivation method often involved selecting tasks from the Mercenary Guild, earning points by completing tasks, and improving their strength in the process.
Points were something that all cultivators needed at Canglan Academy.
Because in order to cultivate in the cultivation tower, one had to pay points. Without points, it was impossible to cultivate.
The cultivation tower was the dream place for all cultivators, where the dense elemental energy allowed them to cultivate with half the effort and twice the result. It was something that no one could ignore.
"The two new students may not be familiar with the methods of earning points, so here's the plan." Fu Hongbo looked towards Gong Shaoqing and the others. "Gong Shaoqing, Baili Hongzhuang will be in your group. Bai Junyu will be in a group with Cui Haoyan. Take care of the new students, any objections?"
When Gong Shaoqing heard that Baili Hongzhuang would be joining their group, a ripple appeared in his deep, dark eyes. His gaze fell on Baili Hongzhuang, and he said, "No problem."
Cui Haoyan also nodded. "No problem! Bai Junyu will be with us. Teacher, you can rest assured."
Dongfang Yu's teasing expression intensified. This was indeed interesting.
Baili Hongzhuang and Gong Shaoqing were not a good match, but they were assigned to the same team when distributing groups. It seemed like there was a show to watch.
When Liu Qinyue heard this news, her face stiffened for a moment, but it quickly returned to a smile, making it impossible to discern.
Dongfang Yu walked to Baili Hongzhuang's side and placed a hand on her shoulder, smiling. "Have you registered as a mercenary in the Mercenary Guild?"
Baili Hongzhuang was taken aback for a moment and shook her head. "Not yet."
Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise appeared in everyone's eyes. The Mercenary Guild was a massive organization in the Holy Xuan Continent.
Basically, cultivators of their age were all members of the Mercenary Guild. They never expected that Baili Hongzhuang hadn't registered as a mercenary yet.
