Chapter 5 Canaan Academy
After the selection was over and Xiao Yun and his friends returned home, the news that he was the only S-level student in Wutan City who was admitted to Canaan Academy spread like wildfire, directly confirming the rumor that Xiao Yun was the number one genius in Wutan City.
In the following days, the news spread to several surrounding cities and towns, and his reputation spread far and wide. I believe that Xiao Yun's name will soon spread to the entire Jiama Empire.
Three days later, Xiao Yun, carrying his luggage, and the two brothers Xiao Long, accompanied by the Xiao family, went to the gathering point. "Xiao Yun, be careful when you go out. You must be more cautious and not be reckless and let others use you as a weapon." Xiao Zhan patted Xiao Yun on the shoulder. He was satisfied with everything about this nephew, but he was a little worried. Xiao Yun was too young, and he was afraid that the immature Xiao Yun would be taken advantage of by others.
After saying this, Xiao Zhan looked at Xiao Long and Xiao Hu and said, "You two should pay more attention to Xiao Yun in the academy. We are all family. Xiao Yun is so young, and you should explain the pros and cons of some things to him clearly."
The patriarch's order must be obeyed. Xiao Long nodded and said that he would definitely do it. Xiao Yun also nodded, "Uncle Xiao Zhan, three elders, you can go back. I will be careful in Canaan Academy." After that, the three walked to the team where Instructor Xu Ning was and boarded the back of the flying monster.
This is a giant bird named Cangshi Peng, which belongs to the third-level monster. Although its flying speed is not as fast as that of the Fighting King, it is much faster than running on the ground.
After everyone got on, Instructor Xu Ning controlled the monster to take off and flew towards the direction of Canaan Academy.
On the back of the flying monster, in a room, instructor Xu Ning gathered all the freshmen together and began to popularize knowledge about Canaan Academy and the Black Horn Region where it is located. The Black
Horn Region is a mixed area, located between the Gama Empire and the other two empires. It is a no-man's land, so most of the wanted criminals in the northwest continent ran into the Black Horn Region to avoid being hunted down.
"I tell you, it's OK in the academy, your personal safety can be guaranteed, but once you leave the academy, you must keep your eyes open, and don't meddle in other people's business in the Black Corner. No matter whether it's an old man, a woman or even a child, they may become the ones who take your life. The Black Corner doesn't need kindness, and there, compassion is useless!"
Instructor Xu Ning warned everyone sternly. As for whether the freshmen can listen to it, it depends on their awareness. But it doesn't matter, the students who can go out for training need to practice in the academy for several years, and they are allowed only when they reach a bottleneck.
Generally speaking, there is a law enforcement team around Canaan Academy. The law enforcement team is composed of the instructors and students of the academy. The instructors lead the students to experience the dangers of life and gain some experience. This is also the premise for the students to go out for training.
After a while, Instructor Xu Ning finished speaking. He waved his hand and asked all the freshmen to return to their rooms. It would take several days to reach Canaan Academy.
These days, Xiao Yun has been practicing in his room. He saw from the window that his cultivation progress bar has passed most of the way, and he strives to break through to a two-star fighter before entering Canaan Academy.
Along the way, except for going out to eat, Xiao Yun used the rest of the time to cultivate his fighting spirit. Hard work pays off. One night before arriving at Canaan College, Xiao Yun officially became a two-star fighter.
Time passed slowly as everyone cultivated their fighting spirit. Finally, one morning, the group arrived at Canaan College. Instructor Xu Ning woke everyone up. Through the window, Xiao Yun saw the outline of a huge city.
That was Canaan City of Canaan College. Compared with Canaan City, Wutan City, where Xiao Yun lived since childhood, was like a rural market town.
Soon, the flying monster stopped at the flight stop in Canaan City. Instructor Xu Ning led a group of freshmen and old students down and walked out of the flight stop.
After coming out, a wide street paved with bluestone appeared in front of him. The surging crowd on the street made Xiao Yun secretly smack his lips. This popularity made Xiao Yun seem to have returned to the scene a few days ago when Instructor Xu Ning came to Wutan City to recruit students. It is worthy of being the birthplace of the oldest academy in the mainland. This name alone will attract countless people to visit and join.
Without staying on the street for too long, Instructor Xu Ning led everyone to make many turns in the city. It took half an hour to walk to the gate of Canaan College.
Standing at the gate, Xiao Yun was very shocked by the huge gate. Even Xiao Yun had never seen such a large gate in his previous life. Above the gate, there was a plaque with four big characters engraved on it:
Canaan College!
Instructor Xu Ning led the new students to a square. The old students who had been there to assist with the recruitment had already left. They had gone to collect contribution points for completing the recruitment mission.
Soon, only the freshmen were left in the square waiting for the assignment of tutors. The tutors in charge of admissions had the priority to choose. Xu Ning could select a few good students from this batch of freshmen to directly join his class, and the other freshmen would be assigned to the classes of various tutors according to their potential. Without a doubt, Xu Ning dismissed everyone and asked everyone to report to the freshman registration office for assignment, leaving Xiao Yun alone.
"Xiao Yun, how about you come to my class? I am now a nine-star master fighter and a Xuanjie instructor. You will have more resources in my class, and I am confident that I will be able to break through to the Fighting Spirit in a few years, and then I will be able to allocate more resources to you." Xu Ning was also very clear and directly stated his advantages, saying that as long as Xiao Yun came to his class, he would give him everything he had.
Xiao Yun nodded. He came to Canaan Academy to get more resources. Now there is an instructor willing to provide him with resources, why not? "Instructor, I am willing to join your class, but I would like to take the Alchemy Department elective. I have tested my fighting spirit attribute in my family before, and it is fire attribute, with a hint of wood attribute." "I
didn't expect you to have the talent of an alchemist. Not bad, but it's a pity that I, Old Xu, didn't have this talent back then. I only had fire attribute, otherwise I would be a fighting spirit now." Xu Ning sighed, "You can take the Alchemy Department elective. The teaching department and the Alchemy Department of the college do not conflict with each other. Since you want to try it, I will take you to sign up for the Alchemy Department. It will be a good opportunity for you to get familiar with the college." After that, Xu Ning took Xiao Yun to the building where the Alchemy Department was located in a powerful manner.
Along the way, Xu Ning explained the buildings in the academy and the knowledge about the Alchemy Department to Xiao Yun.
"In the Alchemy Department, there are also special instructors responsible for teaching students about Alchemy, and they also provide some free herbs every week for students to take Alchemy exams."
"But let me tell you first, the Alchemy Department does not compare cultivation talents, but looks at each person's level of Alchemy. If you want to get more resources in the Alchemy Department, you can only get excellent grades in the weekly Alchemy exams." Xu Ning was afraid that Xiao Yun would misunderstand when he went to the Alchemy Department, so he specifically instructed him.
Xiao Yun nodded, indicating that he understood. Soon Xu Ning brought Xiao Yun to the building of the Department of Pharmacy. At a glance, he saw a registration office for the Department of Pharmacy downstairs. A young man was sitting there dozing off.
"No need to register here, follow me." Xu Ning signaled Xiao Yun not to wake up the young man, but to take him directly into the building. On the first floor, Xu Ning found a familiar tutor from the Department of Pharmacy and arranged a talent test for Xiao Yun.
The tutor took out a transparent crystal ball and asked Xiao Yun to put his hand on it. Following the tutor's instructions, after a while, the crystal ball emitted a bright red light with a hint of green on it.
"Very good, we can recruit one more student from the Department of Pharmacy this year. Follow me, Old Xu, you can go now." The tutor quickly handled the procedures for Xiao Yun and took him away.
Afterwards, Xiao Yun followed the instructor to the place where they usually practiced alchemy. On the way, he also carefully told Xiao Yun some things about the alchemy department.
"Tomorrow, you will choose the time of the alchemy course. Don't conflict with your teaching course. There will be a third-grade alchemist in charge of the class every day. But I suggest you only listen to the class of one alchemist. You are not an alchemist yet. If you listen to the experience of other alchemists, it will have a great impact on your future alchemy career."
"To learn alchemy, the foundation is very important. I suggest you memorize the tutorials on the complete list of medicinal materials and basic alchemy techniques before trying to make medicine yourself."
"Every week the academy will provide you with some low-level medicinal materials for you to practice. You must seize every opportunity to make medicine. There will also be an alchemy competition every year. The prize for the top three is a pill recipe. This may be the easiest way for you to get a pill recipe. Another way is to improve your alchemist level. In this way, the academy will also reward you with a pill recipe. If you want more pill recipes, you need to exchange them for contribution points. Contribution points are rewards for completing tasks issued by the academy. In this regard, it is easier for us alchemists to get contribution points than others."
"Remember, alchemy is like cultivation. You can't aim too high. Laying a solid foundation is the best way. Generally speaking, you are safe in the process of learning alchemy. However, every year there are still many arrogant students who start alchemy before they have a solid foundation. In the end, they get injured by furnace explosions, or even make no progress in their cultivation for the rest of their lives."
The instructor warned Xiao Yun earnestly. A look of regret appeared on his face, as if for the students who had taken the wrong path. "Okay, that's all I have to say. Remember to come and choose your course tomorrow."
Xiao Yun nodded and thanked him, carefully taking note of the instructor's words. Xiao Yun had never come into contact with alchemy in his past life, and he could only think about it in his mind before. As a pure novice, he must remember the words of his predecessors carefully. He knew very well that in the Douqi Continent, those who did well were not necessarily alchemists, but alchemists could do well! However, the conditions for becoming an alchemist were very harsh. Not only did they need Douqi attributes and soul power, but they also needed a lot of money and medicinal materials to support them. Let's put it this way. Although the Xiao family is one of the three major families in Wutan City, its financial resources may go bankrupt if it trains a second-grade alchemist.
Don't think that Xiao Yan can become an alchemist at a young age. That's because the first alchemist in the mainland has always been by his side to teach him. Even so, Xiao Yan has spent countless money and medicinal materials, and Xiao Yan's alchemy talent is still the top one. If Xiao Yun wants to play the alchemist industry, he can only go through Canaan Academy at this stage. Anyway, it is definitely not enough to rely on the Xiao family and the 100,000 gold coins in his card.
After Xiao Yun left, the instructor immediately sent the information about Xiao Yun joining the Alchemy Department to someone, "A seven-year-old fighter with the talent of an alchemist is rare. I must tell Elder Huo. If Elder Huo is happy to accept him as his apprentice, I will benefit greatly."
In Fighting Against the Odds, joining Canaan Academy early on is definitely the best choice. As far as the power of the Northwest Continent is concerned, which one It can be compared with the Canaan Academy founded by Mang Tianchi, and there is also the Falling Heart Flame in the Canaan Academy that can speed up the practice. The protagonist of this book is set in the Xiao family. If you don't join it in the early stage, and wait until the beginning of the plot, if you haven't opened up a big gap with Xiao Yan, then Xiao Yan will catch up directly. After all, Xiao Yan only took 20 years to become the Fighting Emperor. Before he was sixteen years old, he could be considered to have never practiced.
