The Second Collective Pearl Condenses Form Chapter 41: Fairley Academy (Middle)
Shangguan Bing'er said irritably, "Cut it out, are you going to go see the beauty or help me pick up trash? Do you think we girls are as dirty as you men? I just went to take a look and my dormitory side is very clean."
Just as the two were enjoying this warmth, a sudden commotion came from the corridor, and with a bang, the dormitory door was kicked open. Seven people walked in from outside, and this dormitory could accommodate eight people in total. Now it seemed that almost everyone had arrived. Among them, Zhou Weiqing recognized one person, who was none other than Ma Gong, the big guy who had beaten him up that day.
When they entered the room, they saw two people inside, especially Shangguan Bing'er who was busy wiping the cabinet. The brothers were all stunned.
A petite student stared in amazement and said, "Wow! I've heard that the boys' dormitory is incredibly dirty and messy, but ours seems to be okay! Brother, is this your girlfriend?"
At this time, Shangguan Bing'er was facing away from them, so they didn't see her stunning beauty. The sunlight coincidentally fell on Zhou Weiqing who was sitting in a chair with an air of complacency. Zhou Weiqing nodded his head with satisfaction "Ah! You guys are also from this dorm?"
The thin elementary school student nodded "We all are, just reported together and were assigned to the same group. Brother, you're really lucky, we all benefited from it. Come on, let's get acquainted, my name is Kou Cui."
Suddenly seven people came in, and the room suddenly became much more crowded. Zhou Weiqing said to Shangguan Bing'er: "Bing'er, you go back first. We can handle it ourselves."
This time, Guan Bing'er didn't say anything more, lightly nodding her head, turning around, and smiling sweetly at Zhou Weiqing and the others before floating away with the water basin.
Her smile suddenly made the whole room quiet, except for the horse group that had seen Shangguan Bing'er and had sufficient mental preparation. The remaining six people all had a dizzy feeling. When had they ever seen such a beautiful woman? For a moment, there was dead silence. Until Zhou Weiqing coughed several times, they finally came back to their senses. Looking at Zhou Weiqing again, each person had an expression of envy, jealousy and hatred.
Zhou Weiqing chose a lower bunk, Ma Qun swaggered over and was about to put his luggage on Zhou Weiqing's upper bunk. "Get out of here! You're so heavy, what if the bed collapses?" Zhou Weiqing kicked him with some annoyance.
At this moment, the other six were even more stunned. Although they came with Ma Qun, they all kept a certain distance from him. This family's physique was really too powerful, and it was said that he was also a Tianzhu master, so they had a few points of fear in their hearts. But who would have thought that as soon as he arrived, the person in the house kicked him.
Just as a clash between these six civilian students was becoming unavoidable, something even more astonishing happened.
The horse group said with a flattering face: "Boss, I just want to get close to you, can't I sleep on the lower bunk next to you?"
"Hmm." Zhou Weiqing stood up, stretched his waist and said: "Everyone, my name is Zhou Weiqing. You all pack up first, I'll go out for a walk." To be honest, living with so many people in one room made him feel somewhat uncomfortable, especially when everyone was packing their things and the room was messy.
Zhou Weiqing left, Kou Rui and several others looked at the horse group's sunlight and also obviously changed, thinking in their hearts, this guy was originally just a rough-looking gun head, donkey dung ball surface is bright! In fact, he was very timid.
The horse herd felt the same sunlight, eyes wide open "What are you looking at? Are you looking for trouble?" I remind you a few, from now on in this dormitory, Brother Zhou is the big brother, and I am the second brother. Did you hear that?" "Pfft" Zhang Cunyi couldn't hold back, instantly bursting out laughing "Right, you're the second brother." Ma Qun only then realized he had misspoken, his face gloomy as he suddenly stood up, and the dormitory instantly became lively.
Zhou Weiqing was strolling around the academy square, watching the endless stream of new students entering the academy to register. His sly gaze wandered about, searching for beautiful girls. At the same time, he was constantly evaluating the figures and measurements in his mind, while maintaining a calm and collected expression on his face. If you didn't look closely at his restless, darting eyes, you really couldn't tell what he was thinking.
After a while, Zhou Weiqing couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. The number of female students was originally small, and those who were good-looking were even fewer, at most they were just average-looking, compared to his own Ice, that was simply a world of difference.
"What are you looking at?" A sudden voice sounded beside him, startling Zhou Weiqing. Although he wasn't very vigilant, being approached so closely without noticing still made his pupils constrict for a moment.
When I turned my head to look, it was actually an acquaintance. Wasn't that the divine general Feng Lian's Ming Yun?
Zhou Weiqing glanced at him but didn't respond.
Ming Yun said: "This batch of new students? 8 bright female students are indeed not many, your girlfriend is absolutely among the best." His observation power was so amazing that he naturally saw what Zhou Wei Qing was looking at.
"You're Zhou Weiqing, right? Do you know why I was so shocked when I saw your test paper that day?" Not paying attention to Zhou Weiqing's indifference, she continued as if talking to herself. "Why?" Zhou Weiqing was also very curious about the matter.
His eyes revealed a faint glimmer, and his aura became even more majestic as he said, "Because this was something I personally experienced not long ago. I went to inspect a small city on the border, but somehow news of my visit leaked out. The Million Beast Empire's army of 100,000 suddenly attacked, using over 10 million civilians from our country as their vanguard. At that time, I only had 5,000 people with me." Wu Xie Qing was immediately intrigued and asked, "So how did you handle it back then?"
Ming Yun Dao said, "My answer is almost the same as yours. At that time, I immediately issued an order to shoot and kill, and a large number of civilians died at the hands of our own army. But then, I had no other choice, just like you said, if I had shown any mercy, those who died would not have been just those civilians. It's laughable that the teachers in the academy, who only know how to talk on paper, would understand how brutal the Wan Shou Empire's army is. Not only did I order the shooting, but I also ordered the old, young, women and children in the city to work together to dig many large deep pits with sharp thorns at the bottom within two days. When night fell, I led a thousand daredevils to sneak out of the city and launch a surprise attack on the enemy from the side. At that time, I was indeed impulsive, but I had no choice but to be impulsive, otherwise, I would have lost the hearts of my soldiers. When I returned, there were only 47 people left following me, but we successfully burned down the Wan Shou Empire's 100,000-strong army's grain depot."
"The Beast Emperor, in a state of fury, launched a suicidal charge and was killed by us after we had slaughtered tens of thousands of his men. Finally, they broke into the city, but what awaited them were pitfalls, traps, and desperate sniping. I ordered all the civilian houses in the city to be set on fire, burning all the grain, breaking our cauldrons and sinking our boats, forcing the old, young, women, and children to fight alongside my remaining troops. We fought fiercely for another two days and two nights within the city walls, thoroughly bogging down the Beast Emperor's army in this small city. At last, my reinforcements arrived, and because they had gone without food for three consecutive days, the Beast Emperor's military strength was greatly reduced, and they were defeated by my reinforcements, with fewer than 30,000 escaping. With a force of just 5,000 troops and the old, young, women, and children of this city, I managed to hold off and kill an enemy army of 70,000, creating what I believe is a miracle. What do you think?"
Ming Yu's emotions seemed very calm when he was narrating these, but Zhou Weiqing listened with a burning passion, as if he were really on the scene. Although he didn't mention the details, his command was indeed very close to his own answer that day. For a moment, Zhou Weiqing himself also seemed to be immersed in the bitter battle of the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood.
"Of course, this is indeed a miracle. With only one-twentieth of the enemy's strength and an unfortified small city, they managed to hold off the enemy's large army for four days and even burned their grain and fodder. If this isn't a miracle, what is?"
Ming Yun smiled bitterly: "However, that one war also cost the lives of 1.8 million imperial civilians. Even the more than 200 surviving soldiers who followed me called me a butcher. Among them, one-third went mad. And all the civilians who survived that war hated me to the bone. I was also impeached for this reason, otherwise, I shouldn't be here now, but on the front line."
Zhou Weiqing's eyes gleamed as he stared at Ming Yu, and he found that his original dislike for him had seemingly vanished in this moment. Everything that Ming Yu possessed - all the glory and fame - was something that he had exchanged countless times with life and death.
Ming let out a sigh and continued, "Most of the people in the military department want to get rid of me. Even those who speak up for me only do so because of my past achievements. How many truly understand me? I read your test paper that day and stopped you from speaking. You and I are similar kinds of people. Unfortunately, you're not a citizen of the Imperial Empire of Fei Li, otherwise I would have found a way to let us fight side by side.
"Isn't it that only people from the Butterfly Empire can fight alongside you? Don't forget, the Sky Bow and Butterfly are allied nations. It's just that I don't have the qualifications to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with you yet."
Ming Yun Ha Ha smiled and said, "Then I hope you have the qualifications for that one day. Generals die in battle, the battlefield is where a true hero gallops."
Zhou Weiqing nodded silently, turning his head back to look in the direction of the academy's main gate. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he exclaimed in surprise: "Hey, this girl isn't bad at all!" Ming Yu followed his gaze and saw a white-clad young girl walking into the academy from outside... Guess who this girl is? Hehe, the next chapter will reveal it to everyone.
