Chapter 55 Mentor Selection
20 minute later.
The actual measurement was taken outside the building.
A group of senior students were watching from the sidelines, and when they saw many freshmen walking out of the building with bruises and swelling on their faces, they were somewhat gloating.
As the saying goes, if you've been caught in the rain, you have to tear other people's umbrellas to shreds. Seeing these younger students getting beaten up makes me feel much better.
Then we saw Yang Xiaoman being carried out.
"Wow, this year's freshmen are really tough; they've already gotten into a fight like this."
"Is this something that only works if you use a life-restoring pill?"
The senior students around them had seen similar injuries before, but none as severe as those sustained in the Division Wars.
"Aren't those Fang Ping and Fu Changding who stood up yesterday? How come they've been beaten to a pulp?"
"Could it be that he was hated too much yesterday and got beaten up like this inside?"
Fang Ping and Fu Changding helped each other out, and overheard the older students making jokes.
"Hmph, Fang Ping and I took on a thousand men, and though we lost, we were still honorable."
"Huh? Is he just bragging?"
The senior students around couldn't believe it. After all, they might believe it if you said one could take on ten, but no one would believe two could take on a thousand.
Some senior students, seeing the freshmen with injuries on their faces, asked Fu Changding if what he said was true. The freshmen who had been beaten naturally wouldn't tell him, but sometimes not answering is also an answer.
"Wow, really? Two against a thousand?"
"Why can't I believe it?"
Seeing the freshmen's expressions, the senior students couldn't believe it. After all, two people defeating a thousand people was not something out of a novel.
Just as the freshmen fell silent and the upperclassmen were discussing it heatedly, a group of people walked out of the building entrance.
Huang Jing, with a stern face, snorted, "All you seniors, disperse! Use this time to practice your skills and study! You've completely disgraced the students of Magic Martial Arts University!"
Seeing that Huang Jing looked unhappy, the senior students quickly went to do their own things. After all, Huang Jing was a grandmaster, and the senior students dared not joke with a grandmaster.
Huang Jing looked at the new students and said, "Line up according to your floor."
No one dared to take advantage of the situation, after all, a martial artist's memory is not that of an ordinary person, and if they were discovered, the consequences would be extremely dire.
Lu Hao and his two companions stood on the fourth floor, at the Weapon Academy location. At the same time, the seriously injured Yang Xiaoman was also carried there, kept far away from Lu Hao, for fear that Lu Hao would make another move.
After everyone had been divided into teams, Huang Jing began to speak.
"The sorting process is over. Some people did well, and some people did very poorly!"
Falling behind by one step leads to falling behind by every step!
The mentors, including myself, have seen all of your performance today.
If you don't make a good first impression, do you think your mentors will look at you differently in the future?
There are so many geniuses, we can nurture and support them, but you must demonstrate your due value!
If I see no value in you, why should I invest so much effort in nurturing you? Just because you're a student at Magic Martial Arts University?
"Also, I saw people talking about how martial artists are divided into men and women today."
I can tell you definitively that martial artists have no gender distinction.
If you encounter an enemy, will they refrain from attacking you just because you're a girl?
Therefore, there is no distinction between men and women here, and there is no such thing as offense in battles between martial artists!
One more thing: remember not to provoke or offend martial artists stronger than you. If a weak person provokes a strong person, even if they are beaten to death by the strong person, no one will say anything.
In Magic Martial Arts, the strong always have priority and privileges.
If you disagree, then become the stronger one and prove us wrong, but before that, you must abide by the rules.
Huang Jing gave him a few brief instructions and didn't stay long, as he was a grandmaster with many things to do.
He has many other things to handle, and it's a rare treat that he's managed to squeeze in time to come here and watch these newbies play house.
As soon as Huang Jing left, an instructor shouted, "Those from the Weaponry Academy, come to Field Number 1!"
"Tactical Academy, come to Field No. 2!"
……
"Let's go, to playground number one," Lu Hao said, and walked towards playground number one.
"What about credits?" Fang Ping asked in a low voice as he walked.
"Don't worry, with just this many credits, the school won't take them away from you. Dean Huang doesn't have time right now, but they'll be credited to your martial arts certificates later," Lu Hao said.
"Really? Old Lu knows a lot, huh? By the way, Old Lu, what level have you reached? I didn't see you make a single move in the training building."
"You said you just broke through to the first rank, how could you be this terrifying?" Fu Changding asked.
"That's right, Lao Lu, I feel like I definitely won't be able to reach your strength when I reach the first rank. We've both undergone three bone temperings, so how come there's such a big difference?" Fang Ping asked in confusion.
"When did I say I broke through to the first rank? I told you before that I broke through to the third rank," Lu Hao said with a smile.
"Huh? What? Rank three?"
Fu Changding stared at Lu Hao in shock, as if Lu Hao were an alien.
"Third rank? Lu Hao, you're already a third rank?"
Fang Ping couldn't hold back either. After all, they had just enrolled, and Lu Hao had already reached the third rank. Some of the less qualified students also graduated at the third rank.
"Pervert, no, Lao Lu, you're already a third-rank expert, why are you hanging out with us newbies?"
"I'm a freshman too, and I just turned eighteen. Why aren't I with you guys?" Lu Hao said with a smile, looking at Fang Ping and Fu Changding's shocked expressions.
"..."
Fu Changding and the other man were speechless. No wonder they couldn't see through Lu Hao's strength. No wonder Lu Hao looked so relaxed and didn't fight for anything. In just a short time, Lu Hao had already reached the third rank.
Fu Changding and Fang Ping felt their worldviews were being challenged. Three bone temperings were already a huge waste of time, and now with the third-grade realm added on, could Lu Hao have been cultivating since birth?
……
Playground No. 1.
At this moment, the instructors from the Weapons Academy set up platforms on the playground.
Tang Feng, who was in the middle, saw that all the students had arrived, so he said loudly, "Choose your own mentor. Remember, pay attention to the conditions in front of your mentor!"
As everyone knows, mentors don't all have the same skills; the best skills are the ones that suit you best!
Some mentors are quite capable, but they don't know how to mentor students.
Some mentors may be less capable at the moment, but they are still much stronger than you.
Don't be overly ambitious and think you're omnipotent, that even a fourth or fifth-rank official can't teach you!
Alright, without further ado, hurry up and choose. After you've chosen, you can rest tomorrow, then there's a week of group training the day after, and then classes officially begin!
Instantly, many people rushed towards Tang Feng, eager to see if they met his conditions, since Tang Feng's cultivation level was the highest present, at the peak of the sixth rank.
Martial artists, regardless of gender, with preference given to those who have undergone bone tempering twice. The main instructor will teach basic fist and leg techniques. Only 5 people will be recruited from the 08 cohort!
These are Tang Feng's conditions. It seems like he's excluding Fang Ping, but if Fang Ping really wants to come, he'll definitely accept him.
"Go and see which mentor you want to choose. Academic level isn't the most important thing; it has to be suitable for you. I've already found my mentor; see you in a bit."
After Lu Hao finished speaking, he walked towards a female instructor.
