Chapter 7 New Student Enrollment (Part 1)
After listening to BeiBei's introduction of Zhou Wei, the teacher who was about to teach him, Huo YuHao was also shocked. "Big Brother Master, with this teacher's methods, doesn't the college intervene?"
"Although Teacher Zhou Wei is strict, she's actually a good teacher," Beibei said in a low voice. "All the students who have been promoted to her class and graduated from it have nothing but praise for her. Teacher Zhou's strictness mainly lies in her high expectations of her students and her rigorous teaching methods. However, nearly a quarter of the students who have been taught by her and promoted have entered the inner courtyard, which is one of the highest rates in the entire academy. This time, she was demoted to the freshman year because of the commotion, but as long as you work hard and excel under Teacher Zhou's guidance, there are only benefits."
Huo Yu let out a sigh of relief and said: "So that's how it is. Teacher Xiaoya, Big Brother Shifu, you two are busy, I'll just head back to the dormitory first."
Babe smiled slightly and said, "Okay, I and Teacher Xiaoya are also going to take the upgrade test. If we pass the test, we will both advance to the fourth grade. I live in dormitory 316, if you need anything, just go there to find me."
Bibi and Tang Ya indeed have a lot on their plate, and Tang Ya's eagerness to obtain the third soul ring is precisely so that they can smoothly pass the fourth-grade promotion exam. After being promoted, there will be even more things waiting for them. Huo Yuhao has gone solo to the Star Dou Great Forest and obtained his own soul ring, he is very capable of taking care of himself, so they don't have to worry about anything.
Passing through the white freshman teaching building and the black sophomore and junior teaching buildings, Huo Yu Hao saw the dormitory building. The dormitory building covers a vast area, although it is one building, but on top of that there are also four colors: white, yellow, purple, and black. It's obviously representing the different grade areas for students living in the four teaching buildings, with a total of six floors.
Huo Yu Hao arrived at the entrance of the white building, where an old man who looked very aged was sitting. The old man wore a gray robe, with wrinkles on his face that could kill more than two flies at once, his eyes were dim yellow, and his eyelids drooped, looking like he was in his twilight years. The sunlight between the buildings happened to shine on him, and the half-reclined chair seemed very comfortable.
Huo Yu Hao stepped forward and respectfully said: "Hello, sir. I'm a new student here to check into the dormitory. Do you need to inspect my freshman badge?"
The old man stretched out his trembling right hand without lifting his head, and a hoarse low voice sounded, "Bring me the badge and dormitory key to take a look."
Huo Yu Hao hastily handed it over.
The old man waved it in front of his eyes and handed it back to him, "Go. Room 108 is on the first floor, third room on the left. From the fourth floor up are girls' dorms, you can't go up there. If you're caught, you'll be expelled."
"Thank you." After Huo Yu Hao bowed again to the old man, he finally walked into the dormitory building.
The old man remained still in his original posture and muttered a sentence, "A rare polite child."
Just as he was speaking, several new students walked by here, but they didn't seem to notice the old man beside the door and went straight in. The old man didn't stop them either, just sat there drowsily.
He Yuhao quickly found his dormitory according to the old man's directions. The trainee dormitory was a tube building, with a long corridor on both sides of which there were dormitory doors, and door plates. It can be seen that the interior of the dormitory building has been somewhat outdated for many years. There is a public toilet at each end of the corridor.
He opened the door lock with a key, and a somewhat turbid air rushed out. Huo Yu Hao hurriedly stepped aside, waited for a while before taking a deep breath and rushing in to open the window. This room had not been occupied for at least over a month. There was a layer of dust everywhere.
Taking advantage of the ventilation, Huo Yu Hao also got a clear view of the dormitory's layout. The dorm was very small, only about ten square meters, with two beds taking up most of the space. Apart from that, there was only one table and two metal wardrobes, with a lamp on the ceiling and several metal protrusions on the wall. Bei Bei had told him that the lamp was a simple soul guide device that required soul power to light it up. Those metal protrusions were where the soul power was injected.
After a brief ventilation, the turbid air in the dormitory was finally cleaned up. Huo Yuhao looked at this small space and felt an indescribable excitement in his heart. From today on, this would be his dormitory for the next year. It seemed that he would have a roommate. He should tidy up first.
It is often said that the children of poor people start working early, but although he was born in a duke's mansion, the life Ho Yu Hao had lived since childhood was even worse than that of an ordinary citizen. In the student supplies store outside the dormitory, he used his limited money to buy a basin and asked for a used rag from the store. He immediately started cleaning the dormitory.
In just half an hour, under the careful search of Huo Yu Hao's spiritual eyes, all the dead corners were swept clean and spotless. Although everything in the dormitory was still simple, it had a fresh atmosphere. Huo Yu Hao did not plan to buy bedding for himself. The wooden bed was already enough for him who was dedicated to hard practice.
He was a little hungry, so he went out to ask about the location of the cafeteria and bought the cheapest rice bowl from the student supplies store before heading to the cafeteria.
Each grade has its own canteen, located just behind the dormitory area. Huo Yu Hao was shocked when he entered the freshman canteen. At this time, there were not many people in the canteen, making it look very empty. There wasn't even a single table and chair, it was completely an open space, with only one side having sinks and water basins for washing hands and utensils. On the inner side were windows for purchasing meals, each window had prices marked outside. There were eight windows in total, with different dishes at each one, and the prices increased from right to left.
Can't even find a place to sit in the cafeteria? And there's a sign at the entrance of the cafeteria saying that taking food out is strictly prohibited.
After a brief surprise, Huo Yu Hao went to the farthest and cheapest window to buy a meal. Stir-fried greens and white rice. The cheapest meal was surprisingly delicious, and some people were already satisfied with just eating it. Moreover, the price was cheap, only two copper coins. With an income of one gold coin per month, saving a bit would be enough for meals.
While eating, Huo Yu Hao observed the cafeteria and found that the most expensive window's meal prices were actually calculated in gold soul coins. That was something he didn't even dare to think about.
After quickly finishing his meal, Huo Yu Hao directly returned to the dormitory. As the saying goes, "a slow bird makes an early start and enters the forest first". He was clearly aware of the gap between himself and the other students, so he naturally couldn't afford to waste a single moment.
Sitting cross-legged on a hard wooden bed, Huo Yu Hao quickly entered a meditative state and began to cultivate the Xuan Tian Technique.
Although his cultivation speed is still far behind Beibei and Tangya, compared to himself, he has made significant progress. After changing to the Xuantian Cultivation Method, he can at least feel that he is making progress every day, which is much stronger than before. Moreover, after several days of cultivation on the road, his original impure soul power has been completely transformed into Xuantian Cultivation Method. The soul power transformed by the Xuantian Cultivation Method has a good effect on him, as it will automatically nourish his meridians during operation. Although not many benefits can be seen now, Beibei told him that long-term persistence will definitely have an impact on improving his physique.
