The Path of the Sage

Chapter 1396: Twenty-seven doors

Views:

Fang Yun slowly selected his courses, and each time he selected a course, he would enter the corresponding course selection room.

Not long after, some scholars discovered that Fang Yunjin had too many rooms to choose from, but they guessed that he might be undecided, so they looked around the rooms first and did not pay too much attention to him.

Fang Yun went in and out, in and out, and after entering the "The Art of War" course selection room, before Fang Yun finished selecting, an old man in blue appeared in front of him.

Fang Yun and Yan Yukong had met this man a few days ago, and he immediately smiled and bowed, saying, "Greetings, Mr. Wan."

This person was Grand Secretary Wan Xiangchao, who held a very high position in Chongwen Academy. He had gray hair, was over 80 years old, and his face was covered with wrinkles. He looked stern and asked directly, "How many courses did you choose this year?"

"Twenty-four gates." Fang Yun answered truthfully.

The scholars in charge of course selection were stunned, and the new students in the room also looked at Fang Yun in disbelief.

There are 24 elective courses, plus three practical courses, which makes 27 courses in total.

The college arranges time according to the courses chosen by new students to ensure that everyone's courses are staggered.

Each course is usually held every two days and each class lasts only one hour. Even so, taking eight courses can take up the entire day.

If he chose twenty-seven courses, Fang Yun would not even have time to eat or sleep in the twelve hours a day. He would have to constantly run around the various science halls. Moreover, if calculated according to normal class hours, he would not be able to finish so many courses in twelve hours a day.

"Would you like to reconsider it?" Wan Xiangchao's expression remained unchanged.

Fang Yun smiled and said, "I know what you mean. The Holy Academy can't possibly arrange such a course for me. However, I have the Xulou Pearl."

Wan Xiangchao, who had been very calm, was stunned, and then said helplessly: "Do you really want to use Xulou Pearl to study? Even the smallest Xulou Pearl is equivalent to a great scholar's treasure."

The Xulouzhu is a mirage monster that can create a mirage. It can transform into anything and has a powerful recording function. It can record everything that happens around it and then replay it in an illusion. The process is exactly the same, without any difference.

The water tribe often uses Xu Lou Pearl to teach their younger generations, and a few semi-saint families also use Xu Lou Pearl to teach their students.

"Students only need to place the Xulou Pearl on the classroom to record everything. Afterwards, they can use their spiritual thoughts to enter the Xulou Pearl, or let the Xulou Pearl emit illusions to reenact the classroom scene. The learning process is no different from normal."

"That's fine," Wan Xiangchao nodded gently, "But you are the first person in the human race to use the Xulou Pearl to study in Chongwen Academy."

"There's no way. I wasted too much time before. Now I have to work hard." Fang Yun revealed a hint of regret.

Wan Xiangchao knew that although Fang Yun studied by the Wudao River, his family was poor and he wasted several years.

"There is nothing wrong with doing so, but you have to understand that even with the Xu Lou Pearl, you won't have enough time to study all the courses, and there are major exams in various subjects every year. If you don't get a B grade, you need to retake the subject. If you fail in the retake, you will be banned from taking the exam for this subject, and even your writings in the Holy Academy will be deducted. If you fail in the retake of multiple subjects, you will be expelled from the Holy Academy, and you will never be allowed to enter the Holy Academy or become an official! Choosing but not studying is a blasphemy against the saints!" Wan Xiangchao stared at Fang Yun.

"Don't worry, Mr. Wan. Since I have chosen twenty-seven courses, I am confident that I can pass them." Fang Yun said calmly.

"In that case, I won't say much. When Chongwen Academy arranges classes, we will take your Xulou Pearl into consideration. However, sometimes the university scholar or great scholar will give lectures in person, and I will try my best to arrange the time. You should go to the lectures in person as much as possible. In addition, you should go to the sword of words class and war poetry class at least once every ten days to answer questions in class. As for the survival class, I suggest you go in person. It is difficult to master it just by looking at the Xulou Pearl."

"Thank you, Mr. Wan!" Fang Yun thanked him with a smile. This was the advantage of his early visit. If they had not met beforehand, the old gentleman would have been businesslike and would never say a word more.

After Wan Xiangchao left, Fang Yun continued to choose courses until he had selected all twenty-four. As for the three practical courses, there was no need to choose them, as everyone had to participate.

After choosing the last course, Fang Yun walked out and saw his friends from Shengxu and students from Jingguo waving to him and walking towards him together.

"Fang Xusheng, you are amazing. You actually chose twenty-four subjects, which is three times as many as us."

"As expected, you are the most talented person in the human race!"

The eyes of many scholars were full of admiration. The courses in the Holy Academy were not like those in ordinary schools. Each course required great energy and one had to learn it thoroughly to get a second grade.

Chongwen Academy is the highest institution of learning for the human race. However, only a few educated people know that dozens of students are expelled from Chongwen Academy every year. Even students from Confucius' family will be expelled if they fail to complete the course.

"Can you handle it?" Li Fanming frowned, and the big rabbit looked up at Fang Yun worriedly.

None of the people who had the best relationship with Fang Yun were happy. Instead, they were all worried.

"I know what's going on. These are nothing." Fang Yun said.

"You... don't have to fight so hard." Han Shoulu sighed.

Fang Yun smiled slightly and said, "Hundreds of millions of demons are right in front of us, getting closer and closer. I can't look back, I can only move forward, and forward!"

Everyone instinctively looked at Fang Yun and looked behind him.

"Yes, you can't look back, there are too many people behind you..."

Fang Yun smiled and said, "I have finished selecting my courses. I will go back to study. See you in the classroom."

After Fang Yun finished speaking, he walked out the door.

"We all stand behind him..." Li Fanming muttered to himself.

"I... want to take one more course. I still have time to squeeze it in. At most I'll lose an hour of sleep!"

"Yes, even if we, the scholars, sleep for two or three hours a day, it won't harm our health!"

"I might as well learn one more skill. It's always good to have more skills!"

"Come on, let's discuss this together and help me figure out what I should choose. Yan Yukong, you are a disciple of a semi-saint, and you have a unique vision. I majored in military strategy and chose "The Art of War by Sun Tzu", "The Art of War by Sun Bin" and "The Art of War by Wu Zi". What should I choose for the fourth subject? I think it would be better to learn the art of war of the new semi-saint. I admire the art of war of the semi-saint Chen Qingzhi very much, but my personality is very different from his, and I am afraid it will be difficult for me to understand it..."

The courtyard of the course selection room became bustling with activity.

Grand Secretary Wan Xiangchao stood in a corner of the courtyard, looking at the new students who were having a heated discussion with a gratified smile. Then he looked towards the empty main gate where Fang Yun's figure had just disappeared.

"As expected of Fangxu Saint, as expected of the world's master, as expected of the lion-headed shepherd, the human race has hope, the human race has hope..."

Fang Yun returned to his residence, pondered for a moment, looked out the window, and muttered to himself.

"Only two quarters of an hour's sleep a day is enough."

After saying that, Fang Yun took out a piece of something as thin as paper from the swallowed seashell. It looked like jade and bone, with colorful light on the surface. It was actually a slice of seven-color jade ginseng. It was nearly two inches in diameter and its value was equal to that of the longevity fruit. It could strengthen the body, replenish blood and invigorate Qi. Eating one slice was enough to keep an ordinary person awake for a year and make the body healthier.

There are more than three hundred seven-colored jade ginsengs in the Blood Ray Realm, and the number will continue to increase.

After taking this piece of seven-colored jade ginseng, Fang Yun entered the world of strange book and began to practice.
