198: You are unworthy of being a child of aristocratic family.

Martial Instructor Li spoke a lot about the internal situation of the Academy.

Chu Qing and Nangong both kept it firmly in mind.

Noon:

Martial Instructor Li arranged dormitories for them.

The layout here was similar to Shiji County.

Outer Courtyard students did not have stone towers.

They all lived in rows of stone houses.

Chu Qing and Nangong's rooms were arranged together.

If something happened, they could also look out for each other.

Chu Qing was not very concerned about this.

What surprised him was that Han Qinhu, this Prodigy of a Prominent Family, also had his room next door to theirs.

As for the other newcomer, their whereabouts were unknown.

When Han Qinhu saw Chu Qing, a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.

Chu Qing smiled in response.

The stone house was not very big, had no suite, and certainly no maidservants.

It didn't even have a place to bathe.

To bathe, one had to go to the large public bathhouse.

Nangong grumbled, "Everything has to be handled by ourselves, and we even have to go to the big public bathhouse to bathe."

"It really wastes time."

Chu Qing laughed, "Just bear with it for a few days. At the end of the month, we'll challenge for the Inner Courtyard."

Nangong nodded vigorously.

Having been with Chu Qing for a while, she was full of confidence.

Afternoon:

Nangong wandered around the Academy, learning about the situation.

Meanwhile, Chu Qing specifically wrote a letter to Madam Jin.

In the letter, he said that he had successfully established himself in the Academy.

He would go to see her soon.

Originally, he also wanted Madam Jin to help him investigate Director Liu, the old woman, and the Martial Instructor who repeatedly made things difficult for him.

However, after thinking about it, they were new arrivals, and Madam Jin, being powerless, had not yet established herself, so investigating people would definitely be very difficult.

He decided to collect his resources tomorrow and go out to investigate himself.

After that, he thought for a long time and then wrote another letter to Tang Wuming:

【Little Tang, you must work hard!】

【I am in Zhou City now.】

【If you don't work harder, you won't even see my back in the future.】

Finally, he wrote letters to Cui Moyang and others.

Saying that he and Nangong were doing well.

The letters were inspected by specialized servants and sent out.

They would send the letters out through the Academy's channels in the shortest possible time.

After finishing the letters, Chu Qing opened a Secret Manual and began to read it.

This Secret Manual was contributed by Song Zhe, who had no balls.

He had carried it with him but hadn't studied it.

Now, he finally took it out to study.

This was a palm technique Secret Manual, with a full one hundred and eight Moves.

The Moves were quite exquisite.

He watched, engrossed.

After he finished reading, the profession panel refreshed:

【Sunflower Palm Not入門 — Train three hundred times a day, take Secret medicine daily, can入門 in one year】

【Promotion Condition — 1: Say to others — With Sunflower in hand, the world is mine — one hundred times】

Chu Qing... fell silent.

He didn't want to practice Sunflower Palm anymore.

Because the promotion condition was too shameful.

"Tomorrow, I'll go to the Library and find a more powerful Cultivation Technique."

Night fell:

Nangong knocked on the door and said, "Qing Ge, let's go eat together."

Chu Qing sighed, "I really miss the days in Shiji County, where clothes were handed to me and food was served to my mouth."

Pfft!

Nangong laughed, shaking like a flower, "We can do that once we enter the Inner Courtyard at the end of the month."

"I asked someone this afternoon, and they said that as long as you're willing to pay, there are Outer Courtyard disciples who will serve you."

"Hmm... one tael of black gold a day can get a young and beautiful female student to help you change clothes!"

Chu Qing... was stunned.

"That cheap?"

Nangong rolled her eyes and said, "Is that cheap?"

"The other person is just helping you change clothes."

"You can only get a thrill from touching. If you want the real deal, who knows how much you'd have to pay."

"When this granny was being touched by you, you didn't even give a single tael of silver."

Chu Qing chuckled, extended his hand, and said, "I observe, beauty, that you have also improved your Secret Inheritance."

"We are both winning."

"Shall we continue to cooperate?"

Nangong was moved.

She walked around the Academy in the afternoon and contacted some people through the Thousand Eyes Alliance channels.

Then, she learned that the Zhou City Martial Academy truly was full of hidden talents.

There were many experts here.

Those with talent and background were even more numerous.

The Prodigies from the Prefecture City were simply too ordinary in this place.

Prodigies like Zheng Xilong, who possessed Bloodline talent, were plentiful.

If one relaxed even a little, they would truly be lost among The Crowd.

She initially thought she was very powerful when she developed one hundred and eighty Golden Bones.

Unexpectedly, in this batch, there were also many students who had developed one hundred and eighty Golden Bones.

She felt a strong sense of crisis.

If she could use Chu Qing to quickly cultivate the second volume of the Heavenly Demon Strategy to its peak, her speed of developing Golden Bones would also increase significantly.

"Okay!"

"Let's start tonight."

"But, you can't touch me randomly."

Nangong's Face was serious.

Chu Qing said in surprise, "You have a sense of crisis?"

Nangong nodded.

Chu Qing fell silent.

Soon, the two arrived at the cafeteria.

The cafeteria was very large, similar to the tables in a university cafeteria in his previous life.

There were many people in the cafeteria, at least two or three hundred.

Chu Qing observed that they were all dressed in fine clothes, with impressive bearing, all handsome Young Masters.

Among The Crowd, not far away, he also saw Han Qinhu.

This guy was sitting at a table with some people.

At the dinner table, he was bowing and scraping, his posture very low.

Chu Qing secretly shook his head.

A perfectly good Young Master of a Prominent Family was actually bowing and acting subservient to others.

Disgraceful.

At this moment, a faint voice came from Han Qinhu's table:

"Han Qinhu, although your Family is powerful, the resources and support it can give you are very limited."

"But, as long as you work for me, I will naturally protect you."

"Although I can't get you into the Inner Courtyard, I can definitely help you establish yourself in the Outer Courtyard."

Han Qinhu laughed, "Brother Wang, don't worry, I will definitely not let you down."

The food at the State Martial Academy was even more nourishing than the top-tier food Chu Qing ate in Shiji County.

He and Nangong ate their fill and were ready to leave.

Result:

A student at Han Qinhu's table pointed at him and said, "Hey, you two are new, right!"

"Come here!"

Nangong raised an eyebrow and looked at Chu Qing.

Chu Qing smiled, casually pulled Nangong's small hand, and turned to leave.

That student's Face darkened.

"Newcomer, you're not giving me Face?"

Han Qinhu, beside him, laughed, "Brother Ma, that person is called Chu Qing. He kills like a madman in the impoverished countryside."

"He's full of confidence."

"He's full of arrogance."

That student sneered, "Tomorrow, if he's assigned to Brother Wang's class, we'll teach him a good lesson."

The dissatisfied voices spread around.

Many students looked at Chu Qing's retreating figure and chuckled.

Some even laughed:

"I bet one tael of black gold that tomorrow, that man will definitely kneel and beg for mercy."

"The woman will dutifully serve Brother Wang with bathing and changing clothes."

Someone sneered, "Perhaps their background is so great that even Brother Wang has to bow his head?"

Someone retorted, "Brother Wang is from the main city. Can his background be greater than Brother Wang's?"

"In the end, won't he still have to serve Brother Wang?"

The Crowd discussed animatedly.

Chu Qing didn't care at all.

Nangong suddenly stopped and said to The Crowd, "As Young Masters of Noble families, you don't even have the arrogance and integrity of a Young Master of a Prominent Family."

"Calling 'Brother Wang' with every open mouth, and 'Brother Wang' with every closed mouth?"

"Scrambling to curry favor with others? Acting like dogs for someone?"

"What's the difference between you and the Mud Leg on the street?"

"You are unworthy of being Young Masters of Noble families."

"I am ashamed to be associated with you!"

All the students fell silent.

"Qing Ge, let's go to your room. I want to dance on your hand!"

Nangong actively took Chu Qing's arm and walked straight away.

The students... became even more silent.
