Chapter 193 Results Announced
January 1, 389, was the first day of the new semester.
The entrance of Guangxian Academy began to get busy again. Some servants helped their masters carry boxes or school bags to the entrance of the academy, and then handed the things to their masters and said goodbye reluctantly.
Hua Kai walked in front of the Hua family students. Everyone in the Hua family carried a small box behind them, but he didn't bring anything.
When he entered the academy, Hua Kai saw that the road to the students' classroom area had been blocked. He heard that everyone could only go to the classroom when the results were announced at noon. Many people were very nervous when they thought of this, and everyone hoped that they could get a good ranking.
After returning to the other courtyard to change clothes, Hua Kai gathered everyone to chant the Book of Songs for a while. Everyone felt a little rusty after not touching the instrument for a few days.
After playing together for a few times, it felt that everyone's strength had improved. Hua Kai checked everyone's homework assigned by the teacher last week. Everyone completed it very well, and many of the contents that needed to be memorized were also memorized very well.
At noon, everyone went to the canteen to eat. Halfway through the meal, someone shouted that the list was released. Some students hurriedly put down their bowls and chopsticks and left the canteen. They went to check the list.
Some students ignored it because they knew they had no chance of promotion, so this monthly exam was of little significance to them.
The Hua family students were very anxious, but Hua Kai still ate his food patiently. Seeing this, others could only calm down and eat with peace of mind.
When he came to the classroom area, Hua Kai saw a huge list outside the primary classroom. The students below were crowded together looking for their names. The students who saw their names at the front showed happy smiles, and the students who didn't line up in front of them were dejected.
Hua Kai saw a small list in the distance, and there were some female students next to it.
There were female students in Guangxian Academy. The dormitory area for female students and the dormitory area for male students were in two directions of the academy, and everyone's classrooms were far away. Usually, they could only meet when the list was released at the beginning of each month.
The students in the academy were very reserved. When they met the female students, they all looked like handsome men. No one dared to be too casual in the academy. You have to know that most of these girls are from aristocratic families, and they can't afford to offend ordinary people.
"Master, it seems that your name is at the top!" Hua Xuan said to Hua Kai while looking at the list in the distance.
When he got closer, he saw that Hua Kai's name was right at the top, and Xue Chen was actually below Hua Kai's name, ranking second.
Hua Kai checked the introduction of the list:
First place Hua Kai: Junior District Class A, Spring and Autumn Class A, Book of Songs Class A, Etiquette Class A, Arithmetic Class A, Martial Arts Class A, and Erudition Class A. Points 1900 points
Second place Xue Chen: Junior District Class A, Spring and Autumn Class A, Book of Songs Class A, Etiquette Class B, Arithmetic Class A, Martial Arts Class A, and Erudition Class A. 950 points
…
Fourth place Hua Mo: Junior District Class A, Spring and Autumn B Upper, Book of Songs A Lower, Etiquette B Upper, Arithmetic A Lower, Martial Arts A Upper, Erudition B Middle. 820 points
The top ten Hua family students occupied seven seats. Hua Kai heard the discussion of his classmates next to him and knew the meaning of the points on this list.
The academy will give all students different evaluations from D Lower to A Upper every monthly exam. Among them, D is unqualified, C is qualified, B is good, and A is excellent.
The academy stipulates that C Lower scores 1 point, C Middle scores 2 points, and C Upper scores 5 points. B Lower scores 10 points, B Middle scores 20 points, and B Upper scores 50 points. A Lower scores 100 points, A Middle scores 200 points, and A Upper scores 500 points directly.
The academy stipulates that those with more than 1,000 points will be directly promoted to the intermediate area, and those with 600 points will be decided by the gentlemen to decide whether they are qualified to enter the intermediate area. Generally, at least one person is promoted in the junior area every month, and no more than three people at most.
There is another rule, that is, there cannot be a single Ding in all subjects. If there is a Ding, no matter how many points are scored, the qualification for promotion will be revoked.
Everyone looked at Hua Kai with admiration. The gap between people was too big. Many of them had less than half of Hua Kai's points. Hua Kai had just been enrolled for a month and was about to be promoted to the intermediate area!
"I asked the old students. The academy has not had a score of more than 1,000 points for a long time. The best score in the primary area was only 1,300 points. You may go to the intermediate area this month. Xue Chen, with your score of 950 points, is the second place. It is also very likely that you will go to the intermediate area with the head of the family!" A family student heard the news and said to Hua Kai.
Many Hua family students were happy to hear this. Hua Kai was able to enter the intermediate area in one month, which seemed to be happier than them entering the intermediate area. Everyone also congratulated Xue Chen. In the future, only Xue Chen can accompany Hua Kai!
In fact, everyone in the Hua family knew that Xue Chen was very talented, but they were still surprised to see that he could follow Hua Kai and become the second place. Xue Chen was the youngest among all people except Hua Xuan. Now at the age of 13 years and 3 months, he has slowly shown extraordinary talent. Everyone gradually felt the gap between people.
Only Hua Mo was a little unhappy. He felt very uncomfortable that the third place was taken away by Zheng Guoxing in the class. It would be great if he could get another place and go to the intermediate class with Hua Kai and Xue Chen. Originally, with his score of 820 points, he could have been the first place in the past, but this time he didn't even have the chance to be promoted.
In the afternoon, Hua Kai returned to the other courtyard to summarize the exam. The top five Hua family students in the primary area occupied three seats, the top ten occupied seven seats, and the top twenty occupied thirteen seats. The worst Hua Xuan scored 370 points and ranked thirty-ninth in the primary area.
Hua Kai was still very satisfied with this. The Hua family teenagers were talented and willing to work hard. They could achieve such results in just the first month. In the future, they will only get stronger and stronger, and strive to have everyone promoted to the intermediate area within a year.
The announcement of the results at noon made everyone restless, so Hua Kai had to lead everyone to practice the family martial arts [Sky Spear]. When everyone stood in front of Hua Kai again with bruises on their faces, no one could be excited anymore. When he taught everyone martial arts today, he deliberately used a little more force, so no one could be proud anymore.
After practicing martial arts, Hua Kai was about to lead everyone to learn the history of the Spring and Autumn Period, when a teacher knocked on the door outside the courtyard.
"Congratulations to the three students Hua Kai, Xue Chen, and Hua Mo, you have reached the standard for entering the intermediate school area, and starting tomorrow morning, you can report to the intermediate school area!" The teacher was a special messenger.
"Teacher, do you have me too?" Hua Mo asked uncertainly.
"Yes, the students in the primary school area have all done very well this month, so the college teachers have discussed and directly promoted 4 students to the intermediate school area. Tomorrow Hua Kai and Xue Chen will report to the intermediate school area Class A, and you and Zheng Guoxing will go to Class B." The teacher said.
The official notice came down, and everyone will be separated starting tomorrow. When everyone heard that 4 people were promoted to the intermediate zone this month, everyone immediately became full of confidence. As long as everyone worked hard, it would not be a dream for everyone to enter the intermediate zone in half a year.
"In fact, you don't have to consider the ranking at all. Doesn't the college stipulate that you can be promoted with 1,000 points? Next month, you all have to work hard to break through 1,000 points!" Hua Kai said.
Everyone was excited when they heard it, but it was already very good to get an A-level in six courses. It was very difficult to get an A-level evaluation, and it was even more difficult to get an A-level, so 600 points was a hurdle.
In the evening, I entered the [Big Dream Visualization Method] to continue reviewing the knowledge of the primary zone. In fact, the content learned in the intermediate zone is similar to that of the intermediate zone, but all courses are learned more deeply and widely.
Tonight is the day for the four people to meet in the [Family Secret Space], and Hua Zihuan brought very bad news.
"It is rumored that there will be a severe drought this year. A few days ago, someone from the Zhizhi tribe came. The other party told them after the reception of Chief Tiefa. The news should not be false. The Zhizhi tribe also suffered heavy losses from the wolf disaster last year. They intend to organize all tribes to attack the Central Plains. The leader is Yiqu State. Several major countries in the grassland may unite to launch an attack this time!" Hua Zihuan said to Hua Kai.
If this is known from the envoy of the Zhizhi tribe, it should be correct! Yiqu State has been fighting with Qin State in recent years. Seeing the opportunity that all the grassland countries are starting to starve, it wants to lead all nomadic countries to attack Qin State together. This is a very thoughtful idea.
"What does Chief Tiefa mean? Which countries are participating this time? When will the action begin?" Hua Kai asked several questions in succession.
"Chief Tiefa doesn't want to get involved now. The tribe can still support itself with food. If it's not enough, we still have plenty of food here. The Ordos tribe now has a few more Qi training realms. They have been focusing on training qualified slaves recently. As long as this continues, the strength of the Ordos tribe will continue to increase steadily, so the whole tribe is thinking not to get involved.
The Zhizhi tribe has already begun to organize. When winter is over, they will launch an attack on the Central Plains. The target should be the Qin or Zhao direction. The number of people participating in the attack this time may exceed 300,000!" Hua Zihuan said.
This news shocked Hua Kai for a while and he could not react. Generally, the grassland countries will only unite to attack the Central Plains when a major natural disaster occurs. If it was just last year's wolf disaster, we could barely survive by devouring some small tribes, but if there is really a major drought, they will inevitably choose to plunder outside to survive.
Most of the ordinary herdsmen are already hungry. Sacrificing some high-level combat power to adjust the balance of the tribal structure, the food and slaves plundered from the Central Plains can supplement their bottom-level strength, but the whole world may be in chaos!
The most important thing now is to find out whether there is really a severe drought this year. If it is true, the Hua family must make necessary preparations. As for the possible attacks from the grassland countries, the Hua family does not have to worry too much for the time being. Qi does not directly border the grassland countries, and it is difficult for the battlefield to extend to Qi's territory.
Uncle Wu will go to Linzi City in a few days to find a yin and yang master to check whether his birth date and horoscope match that of Princess Ji Le, so as to determine whether there is really a drought this year.
