Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 12: Lure the snake out of its hole

Preliminary examination class three.

This is Su Yu's class. Su Yu has hardly come to class these days. Of course, no one cares too much.

As the examinations for higher education institutions are approaching, everyone is very busy and no one has the time to care whether others can attend classes.

Besides, Su Yu is not the only one who is special.

There is a student in the class who is at the fourth level of Kaiyuan and he hasn't come to the school for classes for a long time. At this point, it is more important to adjust his mindset.

Su Yu sat down at his seat and didn't rush to find Liu Wenyan.

It was too early. Coach Liu might still be reading. The old man had the habit of getting up early to read.

Chen Hao sat down next to Su Yu. The two of them sat at the same table. The teachers didn't make any arrangements for the seats, so they could just sit anywhere.

Not long after I sat down, a plump woman in her thirties walked in with a book.

After glancing at the people below, the female teacher opened the book and said, "The time for the advanced examination is not far away, so I will not review the basic courses. Today I will briefly talk to you about your future choices after graduation."

"Let's not talk about the four great universities. Everyone knows this."

"Then let's talk about what to do if you don't even get into the Internal Affairs Academy, or if you do get in but don't want to go."

The female teacher smiled and looked at everyone, "This is a magical era, where the ordinary and the extraordinary coexist. Some students are not willing to live an ordinary life, and they also hope to embark on the path of extraordinaryness."

"If I can't get into the War Academy, does that mean there's no hope?"

"No, there is!"

As soon as the female teacher said this, even though the students knew something about it before, they became a little excited. Hearing was one thing, but the news from the teacher was more trustworthy.

"The first one, and relatively the most dangerous one, is to join the army!"

The female teacher looked at everyone, her smile faded, and she said in a slightly serious tone: "I think everyone should know this. Joining the army is the easiest way for ordinary people to get in touch with the extraordinary. If you kill enemies in the army, it is all merit. Many people in the class have relatives who are soldiers. Everyone understands this."

"I think everyone is aware of the crisis. Every year, the number of soldiers killed in battles reaches six figures!"

"But today I'm not talking about the crisis with you all, but even if you join the military, there are different options."

As she spoke, the female teacher looked at the excited Chen Hao and said with a smile: "Chen Hao, tell me, what are the main armed forces of Daxia Mansion?"

Chen Hao was excited, and he stood up quickly and said, "The first one is the Dragon Guard, the strongest army in Daxia Prefecture!"

"The second is the Daxia Prefecture Army, which is responsible for guarding Daxia Prefecture and maintaining peace in Daxia Prefecture."

"The third is the Jifeng Hall, which is responsible for hunting down the followers of the Ten Thousand Clans and maintaining social order."

"The fourth is the city guards of each city, who are responsible for guarding each city."

"When the front line is in turmoil, the above four major armed organizations, except for the Jifeng Hall, will enter the battlefield of the heavens to assist the front line. They can all be regarded as the front-line reserve."

The female teacher smiled and said, "That's not wrong, but it's not comprehensive. The Dragon Guards are not a reserve force. The reason they don't go to the battlefield is not because of their strength, but because the front line doesn't need them to rush to help for the time being."

"In fact, in addition to the four armed forces you mentioned, there are two more."

Chen Hao was a little curious, and the female teacher smiled and said, "The fifth type is the frontline army. In fact, some of them are stationed in Daxia Prefecture. Of course, it is difficult to meet them, and they are also responsible for receiving new soldiers."

"The sixth type is the veterans. Everyone knows this. In fact, many of them are veterans who have retired from the front lines or major institutions. This is also a powerful armed force."

At this point, the female teacher hesitated a little, but still said: "Actually, there is a seventh power!"

Everyone was wondering, is there anything else

"Yes, the seventh one is the guards of various universities!"

"Don't underestimate the guards of the universities. Take Nanyuan Middle School for example. It's just a middle school. Everyone should know about the school's guard department. Director Huang is also a ninth-level expert."

"And this is just Nanyuan. In Daxia Prefecture, the armed forces of the guards are very strong. In fact, there are many people in the Wanshi and even Tengkong realms. With the addition of some coaches and students from the War Academy, the strength of the academy is actually extremely strong, even exceeding that of the prefectural army, but not as strong as the Dragon Guards."

The female teacher said a few simple words and everyone understood, but they had overlooked this point.

"So what I want to tell you today is that even if you fail to get into college, you don't have to worry about your future. There are many ways to get in touch with supernatural powers, but..."

"Danger and opportunity coexist!"

"If you are not as good as others in study and cultivation, then if you want to stand out, you will need to pay a greater price, such as... your life!"

The teacher said seriously, "Students who want to take the extraordinary path and fail to get into the War Academy can consider joining the army. The front line is the most dangerous, but it also has the greatest opportunities. The second is the Palace Army. You definitely can't join the Dragon Guard. The Palace Army recruits soldiers every year, and it's relatively much safer than the front line."

"In addition to the government army, Jifeng Hall also opened an academy, Jifeng Academy, but it is not well-known, and Jifeng Academy is relatively rough. It is very likely that you will be arranged to graduate as soon as you break through the Qianjun realm and be sent to various cities for internships, which can be regarded as early practical combat."

"… "

The teacher talked a lot, mainly about joining the army.

At the end, the female teacher changed the topic and said, "In fact, if you can't get into the War Academy and are worried about the pressure of competition in the Prefecture Army, you can try the City Guard. The assessment of the City Guard is relatively simple, and the training organization is also more complete."

"Although Nanyuan City is not big, the city guards are quite strong. Now everyone wants to rush to Daxia Prefecture, but Daxia Prefecture is thousands of miles away from Nanyuan, and it's very far from home. Why not try your chance with the city guards right under our noses?"

"The current captain of the city guard, Captain Zhang, is also a strong man of the ninth level of Wanshi. He attaches great importance to the reserve forces of the city guard. He often personally instructs new recruits and trains good talents. The city lord also attaches great importance to the city guard..."

"… "

After hearing this, except for a few people, most people understood that this person was another lobbyist.

People don't care, just get used to it.

As graduation approaches, all places need to expand their reserve forces. Although Nanyuan City is small, the city lord also wants to make the city guards into elite forces.

Those who are close to the water get the moon first. Every year, many people from Nanyuan City indeed go to join the city guards.

Even if the students of Nanyuan Secondary School cannot be admitted to the War School, some of the students at the third level of Kaiyuan still have very good talents. With some training, there is still hope for them to reach the Wanshi Realm.

"Everyone, think carefully and don't rush to make a decision..."

The female teacher didn't care about the noise below. After talking for a while, she allowed everyone to discuss freely and soon walked over to Su Yu and the others.

It wasn't Su Yu that was coming for, but Chen Hao.

"Chen Hao, you are at the third level of Kaiyuan. Although you have a chance of being admitted to the War Academy, the chance is very small. If you fail the assessment, consider the City Guard. Your father also works in Nanyuan. New recruits of the City Guard can go home for three days a month. This is also a good opportunity..."

Chen Hao had a sad face and asked, "Why do you say that? I can pass the exam."

I don't want to go to the City Guard!

Why don’t you persuade Su Yu to go

You look down on people!

Seeing his expression, the female teacher couldn't help but laugh and said, "Why, you still don't like the City Guards?"

"No... I still want to give it a try. I'll see if I fail."

Chen Hao was extremely depressed and decided to wait and see if he failed the exam.

The female teacher didn't care. She quickly looked at Su Yu and said with a smile, "Su Yu, you are a promising student at Civilization Academy. Coach Liu has said hello to you. I shouldn't have advised you. But, I mean, if you don't want to go, you can actually consider it."

"The city lord is paying more and more attention to the city guards, and you are a good candidate. If you go to the city guards, you will not be asked to do chores. There is a confidential department in the city lord's mansion. You can go there for internship. This is also a rare opportunity."

Su Yu thought for a moment and said, "The City Guards don't have many opportunities to go to the battlefield of the heavens, right?"

"rare."

The teacher thought he was worried and responded quickly.

Su Yu nodded and smiled: "I understand, thank you teacher, I will consider it."

Considering it means denying it, you must be kidding, I’m not going.

In the past, it was hard to say.

If his father were at home and if Nanyuan City really offered some good conditions, it would not be impossible for him to stay in Nanyuan.

He knew that the Confidential Office was a very important institution in Nanyuan. It was very safe and the treatment was very good.

But now my father has run away, what is the point of staying in Nanyuan

Besides, can I get the essence and blood I need by staying in Nanyuan

Thinking of blood essence, Su Yu suddenly thought of a question, and suddenly asked: "Teacher, do you think the blood essence of the War Academy is more, or the blood essence of the Civilization Academy is more?"

The female teacher was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, "Of course, the War Academy..."

"I mean the types. As a research institution, Civilization Academy has more types of blood essence than War Academy, right?"

"This... should be it, right?"

The teacher was not too sure, she really didn't know, but she still said: "In terms of types, the Civilization Academy should have more, at least the samples are more than the War Academy. Some of the unused blood essences captured in the battlefields of the heavens will be provided to the Civilization Academy for samples. The War Academy has more, such as some blood essences that are helpful for cultivation, the number must be unimaginable."

Su Yu nodded slightly. He had thought about this before, but he was not sure. Now that the teacher said so, he was more confident.

Quantity is important, but variety is more important.

There are not many varieties, how can I continue to open the page

I don’t know the language, and I can’t understand it even if I turn it on. Should I ask others what it means

"It seems... I still have to apply to a civilized school!"

Just as Su Yu was thinking, someone outside the door called out, "Su Yu, go to the coaching office. Coach Liu wants to see you."

"knew!"

Su Yu responded, greeted the teacher, and quickly ran towards the teaching area.

When he arrived at the coaching office, Su Yu was not alone.

Su Yu saw a few familiar faces. He wasn't too familiar with them, but he knew most of their names.

There are geniuses at the fourth level of Kaiyuan, and there are also geniuses who have mastered multiple languages of all races.

Liu Yue is among them.

On the coaching side, there is not only Liu Wenyan. In addition to the dean, there are several other coaches who are of the ninth level of Thousand Jun. Their strength is top-notch among all the middle schools in Nanyuan.

After Su Yu arrived, several other students came one after another.

After seven or eight minutes, when everyone was present, the head of the prefecture said with a smile, "You 25 people are the hope of our Nanyuan Secondary School this year. You are either from the Civilization School or the War School. The Scientific Research School recruits very few people from us every year."

The governor was a warrior, and Liu Wenyan was a scholar. But at this moment, the scholar suddenly interrupted and said, "Don't talk so much nonsense, get straight to the point, there is no time to waste!"

The mayor was embarrassed. This old man, didn’t he see that the students were all here

This is too much. I really want to break this old guy's legs.

The other coaches snickered, but the mayor glared at them and everyone fell silent.

At this time, the mayor directly said, "Daxia Prefecture has been a bit uneasy recently. The guys from the Ten Thousand Races Sect are jumping around everywhere. Although they are not a big deal, Nanyuan is just a small city after all. We don't have enough garrison power here."

"So what the academy means is that you guys should go to Daxia Mansion in advance, as it is safer there."

"Geniuses have been attacked in other small towns, and the Myriad Races Cult is creating chaos..."

Su Yu didn't say anything, and someone in the crowd hurriedly said, "Go to Daxia Mansion... the assessment..."

"It's the same if you go to Daxia Mansion for the assessment, and you have a better chance than Nanyuan. Daxia Mansion has more quotas, so you are considered to be specially approved. The academy recommends you to go, and you just need to wait for the assessment when you arrive at Daxia Mansion."

"How long will that take?"

One girl said reluctantly, "The assessment will last for more than two months. Do we have to stay in Daxia Mansion forever?"

"Not really. If the beasts of the Ten Thousand Races Sect are eradicated and killed, we can come back anytime."

The mayor was a little angry and said, "The key is that these rats are creating chaos everywhere. Our Nanyuan City is small and we don't have enough power to protect you. It's better to be safe than sorry. If they set their sights on you, they will have many opportunities to attack."

"On the road, at home, or even inside the school, no one can protect you."

"Instead of dividing our forces, we should concentrate on sending you away. In fact, your family and classmates will be safer if you leave, because... in the eyes of the Ten Thousand Races Church, other people are not worth taking risks. You all understand what I mean."

Everyone nodded. As they were not stupid, they naturally knew what the governor meant.

The guys from the Ten Thousand Races Sect will not do anything without benefits. Killing a few ordinary people is meaningless and may even put their lives in danger.

But killing a few geniuses is a different story. Among them, human geniuses have a clear price tag.

If successful, the benefits will be significant.

Of course, the people from Nanyuan were not real evildoers, but Nanyuan's defenses were lax and its armaments were insufficient, so it was not uncommon for geniuses from small towns to be attacked.

Seeing that everyone understood, the head of the palace continued, "So everyone, make some preparations. Those who are willing to leave, come to the academy together in three days. The city guards will send people to escort you to Daxia Palace. Once there, all expenses will be borne by the academy, so don't worry too much."

Liu Wenyan had not interrupted before, and now he said calmly: "Everyone should go to Daxia Prefecture if they can. Recently... things have been a little uneasy. In the past few days, the Ten Thousand Races Sect has been active again, attacking geniuses, killing caravans, and even causing some bloodshed outside the city... Although it hasn't reached Nanyuan yet."

"But, something's wrong!"

Liu Wenyan said softly: "We are not children anymore. We should have some judgment in this situation. The real purpose is not to drink, or to make a feint to the east and attack in the west."

"Those who have been killed and revealed are all minor figures in the Ten Thousand Races Sect. Many of them are lunatics from the Blood and Fire Sect. These lunatics are all idiots who have been brainwashed. They have no idea what life and death are. They are just cannon fodder for the Ten Thousand Races Sect."

"The real big fish has not yet surfaced. They are creating chaos to attract the attention of the Dragon Guards and to tie down the power of the Dragon Guards and the major city guards..."

Su Yu couldn't help but ask: "Teacher, doesn't Daxia Mansion know about this?"

"Of course I know!"

Liu Wenyan smiled and said, "Daxia Prefecture is full of talented people, how could they not know. But even if they knew, can the Dragon Guards not be dispatched? The Prefecture Army needs to be stationed and cannot be moved lightly. The Dragon Guards are the strongest among the mobile forces, so they must be dispatched."

"The Jifeng Hall is also in a state of panic right now. There are too many places that need to be defended because you don't know where the target of the Ten Thousand Races Sect is."

"The guys in the dark can act recklessly and attack at will, so even if Daxia Mansion can destroy them in an instant, it can't find these scumbags, so it can't strike with thunder."

Liu Wenyan continued: "So the most urgent task is to reduce the possible attack points and focus on sending you away, so that we can have a stronger force to wipe out those guys."

Everyone understood. That's what it was.

One student said angrily, "These beasts, wait till I get out of the War Academy, I'll kill them one by one!"

Several coaches just smiled and said nothing. Everyone had thought about this, but the key was that those guys were too difficult to find, and many of them were lurking very deeply.

"Then everyone go back and think about it. Those who want to leave in three days should come to the academy, and the city guards will escort you away."

"knew."

Everyone agreed. Under the current circumstances, it seemed they had no choice but to leave.

Everyone understands that leaving will actually reduce some of the burden on Nan Yuan.

After the others left, Su Yu hadn't left yet.

The reason he came this time was to find Liu Wenyan and learn a few more languages of all races, including the fish. This was the kind of fish he had dreamed about before. Su Yu hadn't dreamed about it in the past few days.

The language of the carp is very niche. Su Yu has never learned it before, and he doesn’t know if Liu Wenyan can learn it.

As for going to Daxia Mansion, Su Yu didn't have much reaction. After all, he was the only one at home, so it didn't matter where he went.

Other coaches including the mayor also left one after another, and finally only Su Yu and Liu Wenyan were left.

Hearing Su Yu asking about the language of the carp race, Liu Wenyan smiled and said, "Carp are rarely seen in the battlefields of the heavens. Most of them stay in the Dishan Realm. Their language is not widely accepted, and their written language is even less popular. At least humans have not captured much of it. I really don't have it, but someone in Daxia Prefecture must have mastered it..."

Su Yu had no regrets. Seeing that the teacher didn't understand, he wanted to leave. Liu Wenyan saw that he was about to leave, thought for a moment and said, "Your father went to the battlefield of the heavens, and you are home alone?"

"Um."

"Then you should be more careful at home..."

Su Yu looked back. Has the situation become so bad

"The streets are all set up, the schools are set up, and everyone else's homes have more or less Thousand Jun Realm warriors, so you don't have to worry too much about their safety. It's more dangerous for you to be alone."

Liu Wenyan hesitated for a moment, then quickly said, "Actually... I don't quite agree..."

"Coach Liu!"

There was a clanging sound outside the door.

Liu Wenyan remained calm and continued, "His father is a veteran of the Demon Suppression Army. Is it possible that even he is not trustworthy?"

"Anything is possible. Su Long has been retired for eighteen years!"

"Then you arrange for someone to protect him, otherwise I will be worried."

"We can't divert forces to protect individuals right now!"

Liu Wenyan frowned and said unhappily: "You Dragon Guards are executing military orders, I have no right to question it, but... I think Su Yu is fine. Of course, if you are worried, Su Yu has to stay with me for the next few days, otherwise it would be irresponsible for him to go home."

"… "

The person outside the door hesitated, as if making a decision.

Su Yu was a little confused. What did it mean

Of course, he didn't interrupt at this moment.

Are the people outside the door from the Dragon Guards

Before coming, didn’t he see that there were other people outside

"good!"

After a moment, there was a sound outside, and soon there was silence.

Liu Wenyan looked at the silent Su Yu and chuckled, "The people of the Ten Thousand Races Sect are lurking deep inside. We suspect that they have other purposes for creating chaos recently, so... we can't wait passively, we have to take the initiative!"

"But we are not sure whether the academy or the city guards have been infiltrated, and someone is lurking in secret, so... we need an opportunity at this time."

"Opportunity?"

Su Yu seemed to understand, but not quite.

"Yes, opportunity!"

"Nanyuan is just a small city. There is nothing important there, and it is not valuable. If we really want to talk about value, it is probably this Nanyuan Secondary School! Or the City Lord's Mansion. However, the City Lord's Mansion has the City Guards, which is much safer than our place."

"We are not sure whether the enemy has come to Nanyuan, but in order to be on the safe side and turn the passive situation into the active one, we decided to lure the snake out of its hole."

"You guys... are bait, but not really bait."

Liu Wenyan sighed and said, "If there are followers of all races in Nanyuan, and they are plotting to send you away, once the news spreads, they will have no choice but to make a few choices."

"First, I will strike in advance and kill you."

"Second, if we attack on the way, the city guards are still there. To kill them, they need to send out a large number of people, and there will definitely be Daxia troops to support them along the way."

"Third, I will wait for you to leave and take away some of the city guards to weaken Nan Yuan's power before taking action."

"Fourth, give up Nanyuan. Because if you leave, we can focus more on defense, and they will hardly stand a chance."

Su Yu frowned, thought for a moment and said, "So what you mean, teacher, is that if their target is really us, they might choose to take action in advance at this time?"

“Yes, they will jump out.”

"If it weren't for us..."

"Then you should leave Nanyuan. Daxia Prefecture is indeed safer. The Dragon Guards will be able to eliminate them in a month or two."

Liu Wenyan said seriously: "So you are the bait to lure the snake out of its hole, but not many people know about it, because... we are not sure if they have eyes around."

"Are we in danger then?"

"Most people don't. It's hard to tell because there's no one at home."

Liu Wenyan said, "That's why I told you this, in case you are unprepared and get attacked. You just need to stay here for the next two days. If nothing happens after three days, I will send you away."

Su Yu thought about it and didn't say anything.

Nan Yuan’s meaning is to send them away in advance just in case. If nothing happens, that would be the best. If something does happen, then we can take the initiative.

As for danger... it's safer to have a plan than not to have one.

If the Ten Thousand Races Sect really targeted them, now that Nan Yuan has made arrangements, they would be safer.

Su Yu could understand this and said with a smile: "Teacher, don't worry, I understand. But is the infiltration of the Ten Thousand Races Cult so strong?"

"some!"

Liu Wenyan sighed, "Why else would they be called rats in the gutter? They are just too good at hiding. It would be best if nothing happens to Nanyuan. If something happens, we can only make full preparations."

"You will stay at my place for the next two days. The reason is to learn the new language of all races."

"Okay!" Su Yu didn't care where to live, but he was a little curious and asked, "Teacher, don't you have the power of will? Can't you tell if there are any hidden followers of the Ten Thousand Races?"

Liu Wenyan smiled without saying anything, looking unfathomable.

Do you think I can

It's ok to deal with a rookie like you, but as an adult, everyone has a complicated mind and who would reveal their thoughts so clearly? Especially those followers of the Ten Thousand Races, everyone has been lurking, and those who are not afraid of death would have died long ago.
