Chapter 63: Changlu Academy
"General Xuanyuan, there is Oulu City ahead. Thank you for escorting all the way." The old dean leaned over slightly.
"You are polite, so let's have a goodbye. Little guys, I hope you can bring me surprises in two years." Xuanyuan Jingcheng smiled and said goodbye to everyone.
After nearly half a month of rushing, the group also arrived at the Aolu Academy, and Xuanyuan Jingcheng and the others had completed their mission.
"Is that Aolu City? It looks so big!" From a distance, you can see the outline of a huge city.
"Aolu City covers an area of 30,000 square kilometers." The old dean said with a smile.
"Thirty thousand! Oh my God, I'm about to catch up with Chang'an!" Everyone was surprised. You must know that if the area of the outer area was not included, the area of the main urban area of Chang'an was only more than 30,000 square kilometers.
"If you know how many students there are in Aolu City, you will know that this area is not large." said the old dean.
"How many people?" Wei Suo asked.
"Twenty million students, ten million permanent residents." The old dean stretched out two fingers first, then put down one finger.
hiss……
Everyone took a breath. There were so many students, 20 million! This is too scary!
On average, wouldn’t there be more than 2 million students in each country studying at Aolu Academy among the nine countries?
"Don't be so surprised. Let me explain the composition of this Aolu Academy to you." The old dean simply sat down. He had arrived at the gate of Aolu City anyway, so he was not in a hurry to go in. He explained to these little guys first, so he would not cause trouble.
Seeing this, the others sat on the ground, but the ground was covered with grass and it was not dirty.
Aolu Academy, as the most advanced institution of learning in the Great Six, attracts geniuses from all over the world to study. In addition to the nine countries, this Great Six also has overseas non-local areas and overseas non-local areas. Its total area may not belong to the total area of the nine countries, so there is also a large population there.
In Aolu Academy, there are 12 million students from nine countries, 6 million students from overseas non-local areas, and 2 million students from various scattered organizations or forces.
Among the 12 million students from the Nine Kingdoms.
Two million people from Wei State;
One million and seven million people came from Chu State;
One million and a half million people from Qi State;
One million and three million people are from Yan State;
One million and three million people are from Wu;
One million and two million people are from Zhao State;
One million people come from Hu;
Nine hundred thousand people came from Shu;
Eighty hundred thousand people come from the low country.
"We in Wei State have so many students!" Liu Chu was shocked.
"The total population of Great Wei is 800 million, and there are 2.3 million students. Is it too much?" the old dean said lightly.
"Well, this comparison seems not to be much, but it should be similar. Not everyone has the capital to study in the academy." Liu Chu said after thinking about it.
A population of 800 million, roughly calculated based on the sixth family, two elderly people, two adults and two children, the number of children in Wei State is about 130 million.
The age group for public recruitment of academy is between 16 and 24 years old. Special geniuses do not consider the age group and can stay in the academy for up to three years.
Of these 30 million people, one-third of them are between the ages of sixteen and twenty-four, then at least 45 million people can come to the academy to study.
However, due to various reasons, such as financial burden, lack of ambition, etc., most people did not come to study.
These students from various countries do not mean that they were sent by the imperial courts of various countries, but their nationality belongs to this country. Most of them come from wealthy families from various countries, at least the children of wealthy families.
Of course, there are also people sent by the imperial court, such as Liu Chu and others. These people will generally be trained with key training. With the financial support of the country, they are destined to be unable to lack basic guarantees.
A penny stumps the hero, and there are many students who quit halfway because they have no money.
Therefore, in order to alleviate the economic pressure of some elite students, Aolu Academy will also open some tasks for them, which is equivalent to working for the academy and exchanging labor for rewards.
"I would like to remind you in particular that the students in the academy are divided into various factions. The academy will not stop or suppress this situation. After all, the situations they face in the future may be more complicated than what they encounter in the academy. The academy also regards this as a kind of experience for the students."
"So, don't think that people from the same country can get along well with each other. There is competition between the students from different countries. Students from different forces in this country will be divided into different factions, and even two groups of people from the same country and the same force will be divided into different factions."
The old dean reminded him a few words. Liu Chu and others quickly remember it. Don’t be foolishly sold and still count the money for others. The fellow villagers may not be crying when they see the fellow villagers. They may bully you who have just arrived and are not familiar with the place, so they will kill you or sell you.
"Generally speaking, the biggest faction is the royal family of various countries. Among the ten factions in the Aolu Academy, eight factions are from the royal family of various countries, Wu, Chu, Shu, Zhao, Hu, Bei, Yan, and Qi." said the old president.
"Not our Wei Kingdom?" October was quite surprised.
"The royal faction of Wei State should be a mess, or it is not very strong." Liu Chu thought that Emperor Wei wanted to elect the "Seed of Hope" through the competition. From this, we can see that Wei State did not have the best young people in Aolu Academy.
"Yes, the royal faction of Wei State is now a mess. It exists, but no one manages it and lacks the backbone." The old dean nodded and affirmed Liu Chu's analysis.
"There are two major factions, one is made up of scattered forces, called the Hezhong Alliance, where several powerful masters are in charge."
"There is another one, which was established by the group of overseas non-local people. Overseas non-local people are united as imagined and powerful as imagined. Among the eight royal factions, no one can beat it alone. At least three royal factions can fight with it. Five royal factions can barely get a draw."
After the old dean introduced the remaining two factions, everyone was so surprised that they couldn't stop talking. Is this overseas non-local faction so awesome? It's the strength to go to heaven!
"In short, the relationships inside are complicated, and some domestic power struggles will also be reflected in the academy. For example, the two sons of the king will definitely compete for the throne in the future. How excellent the performance in the academy will also add points to their throne to a certain extent."
"Liu Chu, your identity is particularly sensitive. Once exposed in the academy, you may fall into a passive state. After all, your father's name is too loud." The old dean said to Liu Chu.
Liu Chu nodded. Yes, the identity of Liu Zhanguo's son is too eye-catching. If he exposes himself, it may bring a lot of disasters.
Someone may come to challenge him, take the opportunity to take the lead, and promote what a great honor it is to defeat the son of the God of War Liu Zhanguo? This honor will attract many people.
And the enemies of Liu Zhanguo would also come to Liu Chu, and the father would repay his debts and sons. Liu Zhanguo was dead, so they could only seek revenge on Liu Chu.
Many people know Liu Chu's identity in the Great Wei Dynasty, but no one should know when he arrives at the academy. At least no one will know it in a short period of time. This gives him buffering time. He is quick to improve his strength, and he is not afraid of any challenge after his strength increases.
The twelve people present also knew Liu Chu's true identity, but Liu Chu believed that they would not tell them. These are all good friends who can be trusted.
"I'll tell you about the internal structure of Aolu City."
The old dean drew a nine-cup grid on the ground. Aolu City was divided into nine districts, and the locations of the nine districts were like these nine-cup grids.
The old dean pointed to the middle position, and the middle of the nine-grid grid was where Aolu Academy was located.
The old dean pointed to the east and south sides again. The east and south sides of the entire Aolu City are residential areas for Jiuguo students, divided into five areas: Qinglong District, Xuanwu District, Baihu District, Zhuque District, and Qilin District.
"You should be assigned to Zhuque District. This is Tengshe District and Gouchen District, where people from non-local places live and scattered forces live."
"Here, to the north of Aolu City, is a commercial concentration area. Among the 10 million permanent residents, except for the five million people who serve Aolu Academy, the remaining five million people are basically concentrated here."
"You must remember that in these nine living areas you live, armed fighting and killing are prohibited! As long as you violate it, kill it on the spot! If there are any conflicts to be resolved, you can go to the life and death platform in Aolu Academy." The old dean reminded sternly.
Liu Chu and others quickly wrote down this precaution again in case they were killed by the academy for some reason.
"I have introduced the structure and basic situation of Aolu City to you. Let me tell you about the teachers in Aolu Academy." said the old dean.
Liu Chu and others' eyes lit up. Teacher, this is what they care about most. A suitable strong man as a teacher can make people's strength progress by leaps and bounds. Zheng Yi's strength is only in the Qi Gathering Realm, or in the Qi Gathering Realm, so his ability is limited. He can only teach Liu Chu to the fifth level of martial arts, and the subsequent cultivation will depend on Liu Chu himself.
If there are guidance from famous teachers, Liu Chu can avoid many detours.
Liu Chu's current strength is the sixth grade of martial arts. This level has been improved because he participated in the "Seed of Hope" competition and gained rich combat experience.
It’s okay for a martial artist. As long as you rely on your own efforts, you can reach the ninth level of martial artists, but reaching the ninth level is a hurdle. Whether you can enter the Qi Gathering Realm and become a cultivator, in addition to your own accumulation, is also the guidance of the predecessors and sages.
Without guidance, it is very difficult to enter the Qi Gathering Realm by relying on your own insights, but if you really enter the Qi Gathering Realm by relying on your own strength and do not rely on anyone's guidance, as long as the road is not wrong, your future achievements are limitless!
"There is a dean of Aolu Academy, and it's me." The old dean smiled and pointed at himself.
“But I am not generally responsible for teaching students.”
The old dean's strength is very strong, terrible. Liu Chu speculated that it was at least the cultivation level of the God Transformation Realm, and it might even be the third realm of Taixu, but he had never really seen the old dean take action, so he didn't know.
"There are three honorary deans, who are also equivalent to vice deans. They are here to take charge. Like me, they do not teach students. They mainly focus on maintaining the safety of the academy and students and resist foreign enemies."
"The top ten elders are responsible for teaching students, but they are only teaching very few. Only talented students can attract them to teach, and even accept them as disciples, and become disciples of elders. That is a very lucky thing. During the graduation assessment, it is absolutely fine to rank in the top 10,000."
There are 20 million students, divided into three sessions, with more than 6 million people in each session. It is already very good to be able to rank among the top 10,000.
