1662 Childhood Friend and Ex-Fiancée (1)
Lu Zijia thought for a moment and nodded slightly in agreement. “Alright, I’ll enter the Martial Arts Department then!”
Hongtian Academy’s class system was very open. Regardless of whether you attended the teacher’s class or not, as long as you passed the assessment later, no teacher would care about you.
Because of this, the academy had six very perfect library pavilions for students to study on their own, one each for the Martial Arts Department as well as the other five techniques. Almost all the cultivators in the Hongtian Empire knew this.
So, Lu Zijia felt that it didn’t matter which department she entered.
After a pause, Lu Zijia asked, “Senior, you are from the Martial Arts Department, right?”
“I’m a second-year student of the Martial Arts Department.” Lu Yifeng scratched his head, looking a bit embarrassed. “Actually, it’s a mission for me to recruit you, Junior Sister. If I complete the mission, I’ll receive the corresponding contribution points.”
Lu Zijia directly ignored what he said before and asked curiously, “Contribution points?”
“Contribution points are equivalent to Spirit Stones, but Spirit Stones are useless in many places in the academy. For example, you have to pay contribution points to enter the library of each academy. Apart from accepting missions in the Mission Hall, the techniques masters can also refine pills and sell them to the academy to exchange for contribution points.”
Knowing that Lu Zijia and the others were new students, Lu Yifeng explained to them patiently.
Lu Zijia looked enlightened and said, “I see!”
“Then, does that mean the people of Martial Arts Department can only accept missions to earn contribution points?” Xu Qi frowned and laughed bitterly.
Lu Yifeng touched his nose and said with a bitter smile, “Basically, yes.”
“In my opinion, should I make a new choice?” Xu Qi looked at the registration venue of the Martial Arts Department and asked with a resistant expression.
Lu Zijia blinked and asked, “Then which technique are you interested in? Or which technique do you think you’re suitable for?”
Xu Qi: “…” The question Fellow Lu asked was really unfathomable, making him unable to answer!
And so, since he couldn’t answer, he just stared at Lu Zijia.
Lu Zijia: “…” Xu Qi, this guy, wasn’t interested in techniques and still wanted to enter the techniques departments. He was no different from a duck that couldn’t swim at all and jumped into the pool!
In the end, Xu Qi still followed Lu Zijia and Xu Xiu into the Martial Arts Department, and Mu Tianyan went to the Arrays Department.
After they registered, there was suddenly a commotion at the entrance of the academy.
“Look, that’s the most talented woman in Hongtian City, the eldest daughter of the Shi family, Shi Ningning, right?”
“What eldest daughter of the Shi family? She already married Prince Fan two months ago and is now Consort Fan.”
“Right, I heard that the wedding was very grand. Countless female cultivators are envious.”
“Shi Ningning married Lord Fan? Why would she marry Lord Fan? Isn’t Shi Ningning engaged to the Third Young Master of the Lu family, Lu Yizhe? It’s said that they were engaged before they were born. How did it become marriage to Lord Fan?”
“You’re not a local of Hongtian City, are you?”
“Indeed not. I heard someone mention the engagement between the eldest daughter of the Shi family and the third young master of the Lu family when I came to Hongtian City three years ago. It was said that the two of them are a match made in heaven.”
“Heh, what match made in heaven? That’s already in the past. Two years ago, Lu Yizhe and his brother, who were ferocious by nature, killed their fellow clansmen wantonly in the mystic realm and were expelled from the family clan by the Lu family. Hence, the marriage was also canceled.”
“Actually, Miss Shi still has feelings for Third Young Master Lu. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have helped him after breaking off the engagement.”
