The culture of this world was not flourishing. Although it had a long history and many myths, few of them were recorded in the history books, let alone written down in writing.
Most of them were lost.
The few books that Fang Qiu had chosen for Lin Fan were lacking in content. Those books about bravery did not give him a sense of immersion and did not inspire him much. After all, those were myths and legends of this world, and he was a person who lived on Earth in his previous life.
Therefore, his understanding of the "Way of Bravery" was not very smooth. In the past month, the word "bravery" had only grown a little bigger, from the size of a palm to the size of a folding fan. It had doubled.
Thinking of this, Lin Fan threw those books to the back of his mind. Then, he began to recall the myths about bravery that he had read in his previous life on Earth.
He thought of Xing Tian.
Xing Tian was the subordinate of Emperor Yan. In a battle between Emperor Yan and the Yellow Emperor, Xing Tian fought with the Yellow Emperor alone. Due to his strength, his head was cut off by the Yellow Emperor.
But Xing Tian did not shrink back. With his breasts as his eyes and his navel as his mouth, he picked up his shield and axe and continued to fight.
"Xing Tian dances with courage, and his fierce will always be there."
It could be seen that Xing Tian was the embodiment of bravery and perseverance. He was the strongest warrior!
He thought of Sun Wukong again, the Great Sage Equalling Heaven who dared to fight against the Heavenly Court …
There was a meeting in the Peach Garden, and there was only a court in the Yama Palace.
The throne of the Dragon Palace changed, and I became the emperor in the Jade Realm.
He thought of these two mythical figures.
His heart was filled with a sense of heroism. He felt that he had become Xing Tian, waving his axe and huge shield, fighting against the Emperor. Sometimes he became the brave and fearless Sun Wukong, waving the Golden Cudgel, overturning the Heavenly Court.
The word "bravery" in his body was driven by the heroism in his heart and kept rolling.
Metamorphosis, strengthening …
With a boom, the word "bravery" left his body and became the size of a cattail leaf fan, shining with golden light, and its power doubled.
With a thought, the word "bravery" crashed into the side room of the courtyard. With a boom, the side room collapsed. Staring at the ruined courtyard, he was stunned.
He did not expect the power of bravery to be so great that it could knock down a house.
Although the house was allocated to him, it was a public property of the Headmaster's Academy.
After knocking over a public object, he was a little scared. As the fear grew in his heart, the word "Bravery" that had just knocked over the house actually dimmed a little and then began to shrink …
He turned pale with fright and quickly dispelled the fear in his heart. He comforted himself in his heart, 'Isn't it just a house?
So what if he knocked it over?
What's the big deal? Just compensate!
I have plenty of money!
There was no need to panic over this and damage his Dao heart.
With this thought in mind, the word "Bravery" immediately stopped shrinking, and the golden light shone brightly again.
Soon, a deacon of the Headmaster's Academy came to Lin Fan's place and fined him ten thousand gold coins for damaging the house.
Lin Fan handed over the gold coins and sent the two deacons away. Soon, construction workers came over to dismantle the broken walls of the house, preparing to build a new house.
After Lin Fan found the right direction, the process of Dao enlightenment became easier and faster. The Dao of Bravery grew rapidly as he continued to understand it.
In just a week, the word "Bravery" had grown from the size of a palm-leaf fan to the size of a basin. It shone with golden light and was extremely powerful. Its power was unparalleled.
…
The big competition of the Headmaster's Academy was held as scheduled.
The big competition was set up in the square of the academy. The square was very large and could accommodate tens of thousands of people. The total number of people in the academy was no more than a thousand. Therefore, it was relatively spacious.
On the night before the big competition, the Headmaster placed three chess pieces in the square.
These chess pieces were not the usual ones that could be played in the palm of one's hand. They were huge chess pieces with a diameter of ten meters. They were the four chess pieces of the Headmaster's "Heavenly Chess".
The Heavenly Chess was a chessboard that the Headmaster often used to play chess with the masters of the outside world. Each chess piece weighed tens of thousands of pounds. During the game, the players had to constantly move these tens of thousands of pounds. Therefore, the so-called game was not only a competition of intelligence, but also a competition of strength and cultivation.
Now, the Headmaster was going to use these three chess pieces as the arena for this year's big competition.
The three chess pieces weighed tens of thousands of pounds. They were respectively "Pawn", "Horse", and "Commander".
The rules of the competition were that the junior, intermediate, and intermediate classes would compete at the same time. The two junior classes would choose ten students to compete in the "Pawn" arena.
The two intermediate classes would choose twenty students to compete in the "Horse" arena.
The two advanced classes would choose thirty students to compete in the "Commander" arena.
In the first round, five people would be eliminated from the junior class. Five people would be eliminated from the intermediate class. Ten people would be eliminated from the intermediate class. Fifteen people would be eliminated from the advanced class.
Then, the remaining twenty people would mix together and participate in the second round. Finally, ten people would be eliminated. The remaining ten people would be the top ten of this year's big competition.
Then, the top ten people would compete to determine the winner and loser.
The ranking would be decided.
The champion, second runner-up, and third runner-up would be decided.
On this day, after the rules of the competition were made clear, each class began to vote.
Everyone knew that those who could enter the top ten in this year's big competition would be baptized by the Headmaster's power of the Holy Path. After the baptism, their own power of the Holy Path would increase by several times. Therefore, everyone wanted to fight for this spot. However, the majority of people knew their own limitations.
Those with weak cultivation had long since given up on the idea of participating. They were just spectators, waiting to watch the exciting competition.
Although Lin Fan's cultivation was not high, his identity was not ordinary. His resume and battle record made people dare not underestimate him. In addition, his comprehensive strength was strong, so he was also among the participants of this year's Academy Exam.
Then, the junior class two chose another four people. These five people would participate in the first round of the competition. These five people would compete against five students from the junior class two.
Lin Fan's competition was scheduled for the afternoon of this day.
In the morning, Lin Fan, Ye Junqing, and Tian Yunyi, who were sitting at the same table, watched the competition together.
The competition in the morning allowed Lin Fan to see some of the strength of his opponents. It made him clearly understand that the strength of the participants had little to do with their grade.
There were also experts in the junior class, and there were also trash in the senior class. However, regardless of the number, the average strength of the senior class was slightly stronger than that of the middle class, and the middle class was slightly stronger than the junior class.
This was also why the senior class had to choose thirty people and the junior class only ten. In terms of fairness, the big competition of the Headmaster's Academy was indeed not fair at all. After all, there was no such thing as absolute fairness in this world.
According to the competition in the morning, Lin Fan made a preliminary assessment of the strength of the participating students. Combined with his own cultivation, he felt that his strength should be above average among all the participants. If he worked hard, it would not be a problem for him to enter the top ten.
However, the competition of the junior class in the morning was not good. The five students of Junior Class One were all eliminated in the match against the five students of Junior Class Two. None of them won, which made Junior Class One lose face.
And Lin Fan, as the one with the highest cultivation in Junior Class One, received a lot of attention. He was also highly anticipated by the students of Junior Class One. Everyone hoped that he would be able to win beautifully in the competition in the afternoon and win face for Junior Class One.
The competition in the afternoon was held as scheduled.
The students of the two junior classes gathered in front of the "pawn" stage, waiting to watch the competition. Although the competition in the "commander" stage was relatively more exciting, the competition in the pawn stage was related to the honor of their class, so they still paid more attention to this stage.
"Junior Class One is full of trash. They were all eliminated in the morning, and they won't be able to escape misfortune in the afternoon. The entire class is a good-for-nothing!!"
"Yeah, there are many beautiful girls in Junior Class One. I suspect that the students of Junior Class One are usually busy talking about love.
Their homework and cultivation have all been neglected. If their cultivation path is filled with sensual pleasures, it will be difficult for them to achieve great things … "
"Junior Class One might as well just forfeit.
This way, our Junior Class Two can have five more people to participate in the competition. "
The five consecutive victories in the morning had greatly boosted the morale of the students of Junior Class Two.
The competition hadn't even started, but they were already mocking and ridiculing the students of Junior Class One.
This was a blow to the morale of the students of Junior Class One.
Listening to this voice.
As a student of Junior Class One, Lin Fan felt that it was a little harsh, so he took the lead and jumped onto the "pawn" stage.
He felt that it was necessary to cut down the prestige of Junior Class Two and encourage Junior Class One.
Seeing that the one who jumped onto the stage was the True Element Boundary First Stage Lin Fan, the student with the highest cultivation in Junior Class Two, who was also a True Element Boundary Fourth Stage student, jumped onto the pawn stage.
It was a thirty year old man named Liu Kui.
Like his name, he was very tall and sturdy. Standing there, he was actually taller than Lin Fan by a head. Compared to him, Lin Fan was simply too weak.
He had a long donkey face, and his expression was somewhat gloomy. He coldly glanced at Lin Fan and contemptuously said, "Little brat.
Your Junior Class One is trash, and you are the leader of the trash. But in front of me ….
You are also trash …. "
After hearing this person's words, all the students of Junior Class One couldn't help but shout, "Lin Fan, beat him up with one punch, let's see if that donkey still cries out …."
"Did you hear that?
My Junior Class Two wants me to beat you up with one punch. "Lin Fan sneered.
"How about we fight with our bare fists!"
In terms of physique, Liu Kui completely defeated Lin Fan. Moreover, Liu Kui was also a strong cultivator. He really didn't think that Lin Fan would dare to fight with him in a fist fight. He even thought that there was something wrong with his ears.
He couldn't help but smile playfully and said word by word, "You mean ….
Without using our cultivation, we will fight with only our physical strength? "
"That's right.
Do you dare? "Lin Fan laughed.
"This is what you said. Don't go back on your words when you lose the match." Liu Kui pointed at Lin Fan's face and said.
"Of course I won't. Besides, the rules of the competition are here. As long as you knock me off the stage, even if I want to go back on my words, I won't have the opportunity to do so." Lin Fan said.
