Chapter 68: The situation in the Inner Academy

 

"Factions? It's surprising that things like that still exist in the Inner Academy, don't you forbid them?"

Jia Yun asked with a slight frown of confusion.

"Oh, why should they be banned? This kind of competitiveness is what we need in the Inner Academy, if you want to not be bullied, then you have to work hard to improve your own strength, otherwise, everything will be ignored."

"The strongest is always the protagonist in this world, we don't want the Inner Academy to become a carefree ivory tower, because in this kind of environment, truly strong people cannot come out." Elder Su said indifferently.

Xiao Ming nodded at his words, well, it was very much in line with Jia Nan Academy's usual style of letting students experience the cruelty of society.

He thought that there was nothing wrong with this style, after all, Dou Qi Continent was not like modern society, the society here embodied the eight words 'the weak are the prey of the strong' to the fullest.

It is not uncommon for one day one to be walking down the street and suddenly be captured and used as a slave.

Students who receive soft educational methods will not be able to adapt to this kind of society.

Therefore, for the sake of the students, it is necessary for the Jia Nan Academy to allow them to experience some of the cruelty of society in advance.

No wonder the Jia Nan Academy was famous in the central plains, this teaching philosophy was indeed very suitable.

"Remember, you are someone from the Inner Academy from now on, you will have to get used to the situation where senior students are divided into their own factions. In the Inner Academy, unless you are extremely strong, you won't be able to manage on your own."

"The reason why I let you live together is that I want you to form a team, in the Fire Energy Hunting Competition, you must have understood how strong a team can be, right?"

Hearing these words, Xiao Ming turned his gaze towards Elder Su.

"Ahem, I mean the four of you."

Sensing that Xiao Ming didn't really need to be in a group, Elder Su coughed and explained.

Not taking Elder Su's words to heart, Xiao Ming merely laughed indifferently and said.

"Elder Su, I actually think that your comment about a team being stronger in battle is very valid, after all, if those senior students were not a team, it would have taken me less effort to defeat them."

This statement was somewhat boastful, but Xiao Ming really thought so.

Of course, the premise was that the team had to be close-knit, otherwise it would have a negative effect.

Jia Yun and the others looked at Xiao Ming speechlessly but said nothing.

Because after splitting up, Xiao Ming was able to defeat all the senior students by himself, while they had a harder time being chased, the difference was too big.

When Elder Su heard this, he said with relief, "It's good that you can understand it too, Xiao Ming. From today onwards, I hope that the five of you will be a team that will face all difficulties together and never gives up on each other."

"If you can do this, then life in this Inner Academy will be much easier, the strength of one person, no matter what, is no match for a team, right?"

"This..."

Bo Pao, Yin Lu, and the others looked at each other hesitantly but said nothing.

A team with an unspoken understanding is created when the conditions are given, it is a bit disingenuous to say that they will form a team where they will never leave each other without first experiencing hardships together.

Bo Pao and the other people were all popular figures in the Outer Academy, so naturally, they did not want to say something that might not be fulfilled.

"Sigh, anyway, all decisions are in your hands, just don't regret it when the time comes."

His reaction made Elder Su sigh and not force the situation.

"Alright, it's getting late, you can clean the house on your own and then rest for the night, starting tomorrow, you can check out the Inner Academy as much as you want, I'm sure this place won't let you down."

"No cultivation courses?" Jiang Yanshu asked hurriedly.

"The Inner Academy doesn't need that kind of thing."

"As long as you have enough 'fire energy', you can enter the 'Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower', cultivating there is more useful than any course, oh yeah, I almost forgot, the academy will collectively organize students to enter once a week, if you want to talk about a course, then I think that should count."

"In addition, in the Inner Academy there is also the 'Dou Technique Hall' and the 'Qi Method Hall', you can go there if you want to get a Qi Method or Dou Technique, but of course, this is also on the premise that you have enough 'fire energy' to buy it, otherwise, compared to the Outer Academy, the Inner Academy is actually freer."

"If you feel that the 'fire energy' you have is not enough and your hands itch, you can go to the Fighting Arena to gain 'fire energy', but of course, this is only if you have enough strength, otherwise, you will end up losing everything."

Xiao Ming and the others nodded slightly, indicating that they had understood.

"If there is nothing else, you can rest, and if there is any business, you can come to find me."

Waving a hand towards Xiao Ming and the others, Elder Su turned around and marched towards the door, finally disappearing from the sight of Xiao Ming and the others.

Seeing Elder Su leaving, Xiao Ming clapped his hands and smiled at Jia Yun and the others. "Tidy up your rooms, even if any of you want to leave this pavilion in the future, I'm sure it won't be that fast, it will take you some time to familiarize yourselves with the Inner Academy, during this time, I hope you all can get along and not cause any unpleasant incidents."

"Hm."

Jia Yun and the others nodded their heads and immediately dispersed, each looking for a room.

......

Early in the morning, the sun was shining brightly.

Xiao Ming had done boxing set in the pavilion room while exercising his muscles, he saw Jia Yun and the others coming down the stairs.

"Xiao Ming, you are really diligent, you just went through a series of continuous battles in the Fire Energy Hunting Competition, I thought you would take a good rest yesterday, I didn't expect you to get up so early."

Seeing that the person in the pavilion room was Xiao Ming, Jia Yun's eyes lit up and she said with a smile.

"It's just habit."

Stopping what he was doing, Xiao Ming walked over to the wooden chair and sat down, nonchalantly picking up a cup of tea that had been brewed beside him and drinking it.

'This tea causes the circulation of Dou Qi to accelerate by a few points, it's really good tea, but it's a pity that there wasn't much stock left in the master's house.' Sipping the tea, Xiao Ming thought inwardly.

In his previous life, Xiao Ming had liked to drink tea due to his family's influence, and he never thought that there would be such things in the Dou Qi Continent after reincarnating.

Moreover, because of Dou Qi, some teas possessed extraordinary effects.

The type he was drinking right now was called 'Fire Cloud Tea', which had the effect of accelerating the circulation of Dou Qi and was most effective for the Dou Master level, he had taken it from his own master, only the production of this tea was relatively small, and Xiao Ming only drank some from time to time.

"Xiao Ming, do you have any plans for today, do you want to join any faction?" Jia Yun sat on the chair next to Xiao Ming and interrupted Xiao Ming's thoughts.

"Plans? It should be to take a walk around the Inner Academy, there's no rush to join a faction, I want to see what Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower looks like first."

Xiao Ming actually had no intention of joining a faction at all, by joining a faction he would inevitably be affected by the rules and regulations.

He had always disliked them.

As for setting up his own faction, again, it seemed like a lot of trouble.

Xiao Ming also felt that he was not cut out for it.

Therefore, he planned to cultivate alone until graduation.
