Chapter 36

-----------------------------------------

The high wall belongs to the Donghai Academy. Not far ahead is the entrance to the academy, where the grand gate made of huge stones exudes a sense of grandeur.

Donghai Academy is a large institution, possessing both intermediate and advanced college qualifications. Therefore, it is divided into an intermediate college section and an advanced college section. Liu Yuxin is a student in the advanced college section.

Do not think that the difference between intermediate and advanced is just a step. In reality, the gap is vast.

Intermediate college is compulsory education and does not charge tuition fees. Donghai Academy is a Soul Master college, with the intermediate college occupying two-thirds of the area, but its essence is the advanced college, which takes up one-third of the area.

As long as one is a Soul Master and has a recommendation letter from a primary college in Donghai City and its surrounding towns, they can enter the intermediate college to receive Soul Master education. The intermediate college has a six-year curriculum, and by the time of graduation, no more than one-tenth of the students can truly pass the entrance examination for the advanced Soul Master college.

The advanced college is no longer compulsory education but requires passing a series of strict exams to be admitted. Those who can enter the advanced college are truly the elite.

If the primary college teaches the basics of martial souls and Soul Masters, then the intermediate college teaches how to apply this knowledge, how to utilize one's martial soul, and to set future goals. It is only at the advanced college that true deepening of knowledge begins.

Entering the academy, the trees are lush, and a wide road extends to both sides upon entering. The road ahead is paved with bluestone, giving it an ancient and simple feel.

Liu Yuxin smiled and said, "For everyone's safety, the academy does not allow vehicles to drive inside. Therefore, if vehicles enter the academy, they will immediately be diverted to the sides and enter the underground parking lot. Our advanced college section is on the west side, and the rest are the areas for your intermediate college section."

With this senior's introduction, Tang Wulin quickly gained a basic understanding of the academy.

The main teaching building of the intermediate college is on the east side of the entire academy, a tall building with twelve floors. The higher the grade, the higher the floor. After Tang Wulin enrolls, he will become a first-year student and will be assigned to a classroom on the first or second floor.

"That's the administrative office over there. Go and register. The dormitory building for your intermediate college section is behind the teaching building. If you need anything in the future, you can find me at the advanced college section. I am in the first class of the first year of the advanced college section."

"Thank you, senior."

Seeing the young boy say thank you for what seemed like the umpteenth time, Liu Yuxin chuckled, "Don't be so stiff. Our academy has a very good atmosphere. You should also work hard. After enrollment, you will first be assigned to a class, and then there will be an entrance examination. Performing well in the examination has many benefits."

Tang Wulin watched as Liu Yuxin's figure disappeared, then he entered the administrative office.

With the metal plate given by Liu Yuxin and the recommendation letter from Hongshan Academy, he smoothly completed the enrollment procedures.

He received two free school uniforms, a dormitory key, and learning materials would be distributed when classes officially start.

He was assigned to Class 5 of the first year. From this moment on, he became a new first-year student in the intermediate college section of Donghai Academy.

Tang Wulin, carrying his luggage, walked around the teaching building and arrived at the dormitory building behind it. The dormitory building is about as tall as the teaching building, also twelve floors. His dormitory is on the second floor, room number 205.

The hallway was chaotic, as these days are the times for enrollment. Not only students but also parents who came to drop off their children were present, making everything seem somewhat disordered.

Tang Wulin finally found his dormitory with great difficulty. The door was open, and there was already someone inside.

The dormitory has two bunk beds, accommodating four people. There are two rectangular tables, four chairs, two cabinets, and a ceiling light. That's all the dormitory has.

Both lower bunks were already occupied. As Tang Wulin entered, their gazes also turned to him.

The student on the left lower bunk was taller and more muscular than Tang Wulin, about half a head taller, with short hair and slightly protruding eyes. He looked young but already had a fierce aura.

The student on the right looked relatively thin and weak, with a pair of glasses on his young nose, giving him a scholarly air. In fact, he was holding a book in his hand.

"Hello, my name is Tang Wulin, I'm new here." Tang Wulin looked at the two bunk beds, placed his luggage on the upper bunk on the left, and said.

The thin student nodded at him and said, "I'm Yun Xiao, the Yun from 'cloud' and the Xiao from 'small.'"

Tang Wulin smiled and nodded. The tall student on the other side rolled his eyes and said, "Newcomer, clean the room first."

Tang Wulin, being new, was a bit confused about the situation, nodded, and responded, "Okay."

There was a broom in the corner, a basin and a cloth on the table. He picked up the basin and went out to fetch water.

Yun Xiao glanced at the tall student and said, "Zhou Changxi, what are you pretending for?"

Zhou Changxi chuckled, stood up from his bed, and said, "Smart one, mind your own business. I don't like the look of that guy. Since we'll be in the same dormitory, I'll give him a taste of my authority. All the chores will be his. He'll do whatever I say, clearly a pushover. Who else would I bully?"

Yun Xiao snorted, "Be careful, or you'll get what you deserve."

Zhou Changxi snorted in disdain, "Him? Watch this." As he spoke, he reached out and grabbed Tang Wulin's luggage from the upper bunk.

He unzipped the bag and shook it hard. Immediately, simple clothes, some daily necessities, and a quilt fell out, scattering on the floor.

Yun Xiao was taken aback, "You've gone too far!"

Zhou Changxi laughed, "Look, look, what's this? Is this guy a beggar? His quilt even has a crooked little flower sewn on it. Hilarious."

Just then, Tang Wulin walked in with the basin.

As soon as he entered, he was stunned. The scattered items on the floor were so familiar, especially the bag in Zhou Changxi's hand.

The quilt, clothes, and daily necessities were scattered on the floor, even the two new school uniforms he had just received were on the ground.

The floor was dusty, and these items were clearly covered in dust.

"What are you doing?" Tang Wulin placed the basin on the table and said angrily.

Zhou Changxi sneered, "Nothing, just checking what this country bumpkin brought."

"Pick it up!" Tang Wulin's voice started to turn cold.

Zhou Changxi raised his eyebrows, his slightly protruding eyes glaring, exuding a fierce aura, "Who are you talking to?"

"Pick it up!" Tang Wulin's voice became noticeably colder.

Zhou Changxi glared, sneered, and stepped on Tang Wulin's quilt, twisting it. The spot he stepped on was right where the little flower was.

Tang Wulin seemed to be in a daze, muttering, "That was embroidered by my sister."
