Spring in the Western Continent is warm and pleasant.

The endless ice and snow in the northern border melted clear rivers under the illumination of spring, watering the fertile soil of the gray plain. On this vast plain, grain fields are planted that are enough to feed billions of people.

Going south along the gray plain, you will reach the famous red earth hills, which are the gentle and undulating hilly areas and the surrounding forest valleys, together forming the heart of the Western Continent.

Baiyecheng, the capital of the Great Qin Empire, Dongligang, a port connecting the east and west continents, and Hongshan City, the capital of the Lu family dynasty, all surround this red clay hill. Several prosperous cities, along with the surrounding villages, star-like villages and farms, like fine spider webs, connect the vast land.

Every spring, the moist sea breeze blows from the Sea of ​​Hope, bringing abundant rain to this land, and the rainy season of the red clay hills has always been the source of inspiration for literati and poets.

Bai Xiao walked on the road soaked by spring rain, feeling the weakness of this land that was completely different from the northern border, and his steps became more and more firm and powerful. The thick animal skin boots covered the mud and quickly dried up with the rapid steps like the wind, turning into a thick layer of armor.

Bai Xiao was like a soldier wearing armor. In the bright sunshine after the rain, he still maintained the coldness of gold and iron. The poetry and painting around him could not be infected. The southerners who cast curious eyes on him on the roadside could not be attracted to him. His gaze was firmly locked in front of him, and the white spire towering into the clouds was like a hunter about to throw a bone spear.

Hongshan Academy is already in front of you.

At this time, it took only seven days before he set out to leave the Snow Mountain Tribe. Bai Xiao took just seven days to hike over the snow mountain barrier, cross the boundless gray plain, and walk through the swamps and dense forests outside the red clay hills to complete this distant journey. For southerners, it would take one month to use the lightest carriage and the most majestic galloping horse.

Bai Xiao was very grateful to Mr. Lan for his map album at this time. With those precise and detailed lines, he could avoid those unnecessary communication along the way and reach Hongshan City directly at the shortest distance - this was the target he locked when he set off.

The southern continent is extremely vast, and Bai Xiao has no way of knowing where Qingyue is. But he remembers clearly that the man named Zhu Junshen once said a word, Hongshan Academy. Hongshan Academy is a landmark building with individual markings in the map album. It is located in the northeast corner of Hongshan City, the thousand-year capital, and is one of the most prestigious magic academies in the Western Continent.

Qingyue must be here. As long as he enters Hongshan Academy, he will see the girl that made him dream of.

As the journey approached the end, Bai Xiao's heart, like black ice, began to melt, and his thinking became active involuntarily, as if he was about to start a warm-up when he was about to start hunting. Before leaving, Bai Wuya's teachings came clearly to his mind.

"First, you have to temporarily put down the past of both of you and learn to start over. For a person who has lost his memory, a person who is about to suddenly start a new life in the southern continent, a boyfriend who ran down from a snow mountain suddenly appears in front of him. This is definitely not a good thing to be happy about. So if you say hello to her by her ex-boyfriend's sign, your first impression will be broken. I met such a woman who is unfortunately amnesia, and there is a particularly tangled ex-boyfriend around them. They have a good relationship before they have lost their memory. Unfortunately, the man is unable to stand his temper and always aggressive. In the end, the woman naturally becomes my confidante."

"The second one is to clear the position and lower your posture. Objectively speaking, you have lost your ex-boyfriend's identity. You are not particularly attractive to Qingyue now. Qingyue likes you because you are the most worthy of her favorite man in the entire tribe. But when we went to the south, there were many young talents who were good at dancing and writing like stray dogs. Maybe Qingyue liked that kind... Don't glar at me, I'm just making an assumption. In any case, don't think that if you can make Qingyue fall in love with you once, you can easily make her fall in love with you for the second time. This is a tough battle, and what is the most important thing in the tough battle?"

It's distance.

This was learned unforgettable when Bai Xiao followed Bai Wuya into the hunting ground for the first time. If you want to hunt a giant beast with extraordinary strength, you must close the distance between both parties and stick it on the other party like a plaster, take every move in your eyes, and find the smallest flaw...

"The same is true for chasing a woman. You must get close to her, integrate into her circle of life, and live with her day and night, facing each other, and then you can conquer her and get her. There is a saying in the south that distance produces beauty, and I also have a saying in the name of friction and love. I have been going south for three years and like to say that there are many people who like distance to produce beauty. The women they like eventually become confidants who rub against each other."

The knowledge of scumbags is also knowledge. Bai Xiao has deeply understood this truth since he was remembering it. Therefore, although he wished he could stab Bai Wuya to death, he attached great importance to what he said.

After Qingyue lost her memory, the situation she faced was indeed very bad. What she could do was to be as close to Qingyue as possible, wherever she was, I was.

And the biggest possibility for her now is to be at Hongshan College, so I also want to go to Hongshan College.

With such firm belief, Bai Xiao walked closer to Hongshan City step by step and saw the majestic dark red city wall, like the snow-capped mountains in the north, becoming a barrier covering the horizon. At the same time, he also saw the endless crowds of people at the city gate.

Long before leaving, Bai Xiao knew that the southern continent had a large population. Along the way, he accidentally passed by some southern villages and towns along the way, and he really realized the population advantage of the south. However, compared with the grand occasion in front of Hongshan City, it was not worth mentioning.

From a distance, Bai Xiao could clearly see that there were three gates in the north wall of Hongshan City. The gate in front of him was relatively small, but there were thousands of people coming and going at a glance. A wide white road behind the gate led directly to the city, and there were countless pedestrians on the road!

Bai Xiao's breathing became a little more rapid.

On the snow-capped mountains, the white-clothed tribe, which has been passed down for thousands of years, did not exceed 10,000 people in its most prosperous period, and was scattered in three different gathering areas, so that the resources on the snow-capped mountains can be evenly occupied.

And in the southern continent, this small city gate gathers the entire population of the tribe!?

The next moment, Bai Xiao suddenly became nervous again.

Although he is not smart, he is not stupid either, so he is very clear about the principle that it is appropriate for both the north and the south: people will not be born out of thin air.

The billions of people in the south are all combined with men and women. The woman is pregnant for ten months and has given birth to hard work. The number of people in the south means at least how many times there have been men and women. After experiencing countless men and women, the achievements of southerners in this way are probably far higher than those in the north!

Thinking of Bai Wuya’s stud road, it was only officially opened after traveling south, so Bai Xiao’s sense of crisis became stronger.

Qingyue, what are you going to?

With a hint of worry, Bai Xiao walked to the end of the crowd. Although there were many crowds at the city gate, they were orderly. They walked on the right when entering and leaving. There was also a lane for vehicles to drive in the center, so the speed of travel was not slow.

Bai Xiao quickly entered the city with the crowd. After passing the city gate, a neat and orderly building complex came into view. Houses, shops, wineries, and signs and flags that fluttered in the wind were like a colorful rainbow, enough to reflect the eyes of any newborn bun.

Bai Xiao was indeed a little dazzled, but as a top tribal hunter, his eyes are always sharp and calm. In the colorful cityscape, he saw a key point at a glance.

Not far from the city gate, in front of a tall building with significantly different specifications, a colorful scroll was pulled across, and it was written in pitch black ink: The 13th registration office of the 877th Admissions Examination of Hongshan College.

“Admissions exam?”

Looking at the crowds in front of the registration office, Bai Xiao was completely confused. What was going on?

Bai Xiao's expression fell vividly into the eyes of some people in front of the door. This tall man with a huge luggage was already particularly conspicuous.

A middle-aged aunt with slightly gray hair immediately leaned over with a smile on her face.

"Young man, you are also here to take the admissions exam? I tell you that there are many new situations in this exam this year, and the test questions and procedures have changed. I suggest you buy this exam guide and take a look. This book was invited by our examination institute to participate in the compilation of Hongshan College. There are many exclusive contents. If you learn it, you can lead one step ahead of others. At least 50,000 people took the exam this time, and you can lead thousands of people by one step. I see that you have extraordinary face and are very stunning bones. I will give you a special discount. The original price of this book is 200 yuan, and I will charge you 150 yuan. How about it?"

The aunt took Bai Xiao's hand affectionately, and then mercilessly added two more zeros to the pricing of the exam guide.

Bai Xiao didn't understand why, thinking that he knew nothing about Hongshan College's admissions exam. It would be better if he could buy this guide to take a look. He also knew one or two of the currency units in the south. 150 Daqin silver dollars were nothing. However, just as he was about to nod, his other hand was grabbed by someone again.

This time, she was a young round-faced girl. She was not as beautiful as a flower, but she also looked kind and cute. She smiled and said, "Brother, are you here to buy the exam guide? Look at my book. It's an active tutor who participates in the compilation, and it only costs 120 yuan."

The kind aunt next to her suddenly changed her face, and a row of yellowed teeth squeezed out her lips, and at the same time she made a sharp voice: "Active mentor? You can also hire an active mentor with your small workshop. I am afraid that you will not use the chefs in the academy as mentors to promote it!"

The girl with round face also changed her face: "That's also working within the college. It's more realistic than if you were to write a preface for people who have been retired for fifty years and claim to be involved in the compilation!"

"What's wrong with retirement for fifty years? Hongshan College has been established for almost 1,800 years. What is fifty years worth? And you think it's easy to ask someone to write a preface? If it's easy, why can't you invite a genuine magician to write a preface!"

"Three students from our examination institute were admitted to the top 1,000 last year. What about you?"

"What are your examination institutes? Have they admitted that you are affiliated with the workshop?"

The two salesmen with heavy performance pressure were about to start fighting, and Bai Xiao next to him also felt a headache. Fortunately, he still remembered the tricks Bai Wuya taught him.

When he doesn't know what to do, he spends money without any brains.

There must be no mistake.

"Buy both books, this is the money for books."

Two golden ingots were added in Bai Xiao's hand, which instantly sucked away all the salesperson's mind. The intense mouth stuttering came to an abrupt end, and the two of them looked straight as if they were mentally retarded.

In the Great Qin Dynasty, where the magical path was flourishing, precious metals such as gold and silver were no longer as valuable as before. After all, a wise magician could turn stones into gold. But even so, the value of these two palm-sized gold nuggets in Bai Xiao's hand was far beyond the examination guide printed in the small workshop.

Of course, Bai Xiao also knew that he bought this book very expensive, but he didn't care. If you spend money, how should you spend money? Besides, Bai Wuya said that when people from the tribe go to the south, they will inevitably suffer losses and be deceived by the wealth. The first few transactions are regarded as tuition. As tuition, two gold ingots are very cheap. Moreover, these two books are exquisitely printed and have thick pages. No matter how you look at it, they are much more valuable than those hidden in the white bone altar. The latter is a tribal forbidden object that cannot be exchanged for money for thousands of gold.

Thinking of this, Bai Xiao felt even more at ease.

And he really needed those two books. When he first arrived in Hongshan City, he needed someone to explain everything here to him. Compared to communicating with others, Bai Xiao prefers to read books, even if it is not a serious book.

In fact, these two guides are genuine and serious books. They are not valuable because the content is wrong, but because the things in the book are almost well known in Hongshan City.

Since 1800 years ago, Lu Hao, the overlord of the Western Continent, established the Hongshan Magic Taoist Academy, which has opened its doors to all teenagers of the East and West Continents. As long as they can pass the admissions exam, they can become formal students, and only by passing the exam can they become formal students, and no one is exceptional.

So far, the admissions exam has been organized 877 times, and in recent decades, it has been once a year without exception. Locals have long been used to it. The rules of this exam can be said to be very well-known even for those who sell vegetables on the street.

The exam is the beginning of spring every year, and at this time, hundreds of thousands of people will flock to Hongshan City, among which there will be no less than 30,000 candidates of the right age. This year, it has hit a new high, and as of yesterday, it has exceeded 50,000.

Fifty thousand teenagers aged between 12 and 18 have to complete the examination procedures designed by Hongshan College in the next half month, and only about one hundred people can pass the exam smoothly. The examination is so difficult that it is enough for rational people to give up hope from the beginning. So why do tens of thousands of people come to take the exam every year?

Because the Hongshan Academy exam is recognized as the most authoritative method of measuring the potential of the magic path in the East and West Continents. Even if you don’t get into Hongshan Academy, as long as your grades are excellent enough, you can find a suitable way out. Every year, a large number of magic path priests from other colleges are all magic path priests from other colleges. Students who Hongshan Academy looks down on are likely to be a rare genius in other places. Generally speaking, being able to get the top 1,000 is enough to make many academies compete for the first time.

As for the content of the exam, it should be a top secret in theory, but no matter how secret it is, it will become well-known common sense for 1,400 years. In the two manuals bought by Bai Xiao, the actual exam records of the last ten years and this year's theoretical question simulations.

This part of the content is quite valuable, but Bai Xiao looked at it for a while and couldn't read it - he couldn't understand it at all. According to the guide, except for a very small number of people with special talents, most of the students who were admitted to Hongshan College had been preparing for the exam for at least three years in advance. Of course, Bai Xiao could not prepare for the exam for three years. In fact, he couldn't even wait for three days. Since he had arrived in Hongshan City, the next step was to find Qingyue.

Bai Xiao soon saw Qingyue.

On the guidebook.

At the end of the manual worth 150 yuan, it records the most popular group of people among the 50,000 candidates who applied for this exam, among which Qingyue ranked first.

On the color printed manual, Qingyue's smiling face was sincere and sunny. After not seeing her for a month, she seemed to have completely escaped from the sickness and weakness of the Snow Mountain period and became full of vitality.

Bai Xiao felt very pleased to see it, and under the large portrait, her personal information was listed.

"Qingyue, female, 16 years old, was accepted by Zhu Junshen, the president of Hongshan College and the grandmaster, as a closed disciple. She said that she had 'agata talent'. Her magical affinity is said to be unprecedented and extremely intelligent. She is likely to win the first place in this exam. At the same time, she is expected to break the admission test score record that has been maintained for three years. Interested friends can go to the following places to bet..."

Bai Xiao took a breath and continued to watch.

"Qingyue is gifted and mysterious. It is said that the Grandmaster was discovered in a wilderness village in the gray plains of the northern part. The specific situation is still difficult to verify. However, Qingyue lives alone in Hongshan City without any relatives and reasons. Considering her magical talent and personal relationship with the Grandmaster, she undoubtedly has a high emotional investment value. Interested friends can try to go to her current temporary residence, Xinhu Restaurant, with the address..."

Seeing this, Bai Xiao suddenly closed the manual and then clenched his fist hard.

Although Bai Wuya is a scumbag, what he teaches is undoubtedly the truth.
