Chapter 358 Attending the Banquet!
Inner city, residential area.
When Chenlong got home from get off work in the afternoon, he found his wife, Xiaoyu, engrossed in reading a book.
There were three or four books in front of her.
Chenlong asked curiously, "Wife, what is this?"
"The City Lord's newly compiled academy curriculum," Xiaoyu said while reading. "The food is in the pot. You eat first, I'll eat after I finish reading this part."
As he spoke, he kept scribbling with the charcoal pencil in his right hand, as if he were recording something.
"A new textbook?" Chenlong curiously leaned closer, but after just one glance, he shook his head repeatedly.
Three or four books, labeled with subjects such as "Chinese Language," "Arithmetic," "Nature," and "Combat."
Although, during this period, under the pressure of the city lord and his wife.
These rough-looking men regularly attend evening self-study sessions to learn academic subjects.
But... a rough man is a rough man; at most, he can only learn to read and have basic common sense.
He looked at subjects like arithmetic and language arts as if they were gibberish.
He couldn't understand why his wife could accept it.
It's even more unimaginable how the city lord managed to write it.
"Wife, you've worked hard. Let me feed you." Chenlong said, running over to lift the pot lid. Inside was his favorite wild boar rib soup and stir-fried eggs with chili peppers.
He ladled out a bowl of pork rib soup, sat down next to Xiaoyu, scooped a spoonful with a small spoon, and held it to Xiaoyu's lips with a smile, saying, "Come on, open your mouth, wife!"
"Hehe, don't give me that!" Xiaoyu shook her head with amusement, and said irritably, "Don't try to slack off, you have to study later too! This is your teaching material."
As she spoke, Xiaoyu placed the book with the word "Battle" written on it into her husband's arms.
"Huh?" Chen Long immediately wilted like a frostbitten eggplant.
At Longcheng Academy, Xiao Yu's current teaching plan consists of four subjects.
Chinese language and arithmetic account for 70% of the courses.
After all, Chinese language and literature is of paramount importance in shaping students' values and life experiences.
Arithmetic is the foundation of all science subjects. Once you learn it, you can immediately participate in some work internships, working part-time while studying. Not only can you help Xiao Yu with his work, but you can also earn money to support your family early on and learn to be independent.
The concepts of "nature" and "combat" complement each other, primarily teaching students how to survive.
In the Chinese language class, Honglian was the main focus, with Xiaoyu as a secondary subject.
For arithmetic, Xiaoyu was the main person in charge, and Yingzi was the assistant.
The nature class is held once a day for half an hour, and is taught personally by Xiao Yu.
The combat training consists of one lesson per day, lasting one hour, taught in shifts by Chenlong, Tienan, and others.
Moreover, the combat course compiled by Xiao Yu not only includes practical combat but also various theoretical courses.
This involves some medical knowledge, such as where a blow can cause someone to lose consciousness instantly.
Where should you strike to deliver a fatal blow?
The relationships of mutual generation and restraint among the various awakened beings of the five elements (metal, wood, water, fire, earth).
If you encounter this, how should you deal with it and how can you control the other party?
If rough-and-tumble guys like Chenlong and Tienan want to teach, they also need to learn these skills.
"Remember! This time in the City of Ruins, the City Lord will be recruiting quite a few students."
Seeing that her husband was thinking of giving up again, Xiaoyu grabbed his ear and lectured him, "These students will either be middle or upper management in Dragon City or middle or upper management in the major forces of the Wasteland World. With a teacher-student relationship, these people will have to treat you with great respect when they see you in the future."
Xiaoyu remembers it from the Chinese language lessons written by the City Lord.
Various emphasis on "respecting teachers and valuing their teachings"...
"Okay, I'll study after I finish eating."
"Also, make sure to take good notes when you encounter anything you don't understand, like this, mark it all down..." Xiaoyu said, handing her textbooks and drafts to her husband and giving him stern instructions.
Although she was very confident in her intelligence.
However... there are still many parts of the teaching materials compiled by the city lord that I cannot understand.
If even teachers can't understand it, how can they teach students?
These require taking notes and consulting the city lord when you have time.
Otherwise, it would be misleading students and a heinous crime!
……
The inner city, the city lord's mansion.
"Brother, it's getting late. It's time for Lord Xueye's banquet." Seeing Xiao Yu still fiddling with the Thousand Chance Umbrella, Honglian came in to remind him.
"Oh." Xiao Yu turned his head to look out the window and realized that the sun had already set.
It's time to go to the city of ruins for our appointment.
"Have the textbooks been distributed to Xiaoyu and the others?"
"They've already been sent out. These courses aren't difficult; they have a good foundation and can master them in two or three days."
After the new textbooks came out, Xiao Yu prepared a set for each teacher so that they could master the knowledge in them on their own. For Honglian, Xiaoyu, and Yingzi, it was not difficult.
"That's good!"
Hearing this, Xiao Yu nodded in satisfaction and smiled, "The course is ready. Tonight, I'll have a good talk with City Lord Xueye about the enrollment."
He knew that the city of ruins consisted of five major cities, with at least a million residents in the surrounding area.
Among these people, there must be many talented individuals.
"but..."
But then, Xiao Yu suddenly thought of the living conditions in the City of Ruins and raised an eyebrow slightly, saying, "If we're hosting a banquet, does the City of Ruins have any good food? Or... we could bring some food ourselves."
Xiao Yu couldn't help but praise himself for his cleverness.
All the delicacies of Longcheng are created by the luminous trees.
Having been repeatedly cleansed by the glow-in-the-dark environment, it can be said to have been stripped of all its superficiality.
Whether it's vegetables or fruits, their size and taste far surpass those of their previous lives.
Having grown accustomed to these delicacies, his appetite had become so picky that he could no longer eat anything else.
"Pfft!" Hearing Xiao Yu's words, Honglian couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh. She shook her head with amusement and said, "I already prepared it for you!"
As he spoke, he handed over a receipt.
"What is this?" Xiao Yu asked curiously, taking a look and his lips twitched slightly.
The receipt was signed by the Snow Night City Lord and his family.
After indulging in a ton of food at the restaurant, they ordered an even larger quantity of dishes, practically clearing out all the top-quality items they had ordered.
These delicacies alone cost hundreds of thousands of energy stones.
"In that case, let's go straight there." We have the food, so we can just go.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yu came to the open space. He spread his hands and with a thought, a burst of seven-colored light rose in front of him, and a large number of crystals condensed and took shape, transforming into a royal carriage used by ancient kings and nobles.
Then, with a wave of his hand, lifelike jade dragons and phoenixes appeared on the royal carriage.
"Alright, let's go." Xiao Yu smiled and waved, signaling the women to follow.
Honglian, Xinglan, Chuling Shuang, Sixi, Liuyue, and Qisha, the six women, had all changed into casual clothes. Unlike their usual heroic appearance in armor, they exuded a more youthful vibe.
With the six women and Xiao Yu, there are exactly seven people.
The royal carriage was ten meters long and five meters wide, but it only had seven seats.
Then, lay down a thick animal skin blanket, and it'll be almost as comfortable as a soft bed.
The royal carriage was surrounded by a rhombus shape, so that one could not see inside from the outside, but could see outside from the inside.
"You little guys, come with me too." Xiao Yu then brought along the smaller Lightning Sable, Slime, Crystal Beast, Raven, Ice Fox, and Fire Kirin.
There's no need to bring too many people when just going out for a meal.
After all, when they came to Longcheng, there were three or four of them.
"Take off!" Once all the women were seated, Xiao Yu used his gravity control ability to make everyone feel light and airy. The royal carriage also slowly ascended under his control.
Once the women had adjusted to the altitude, Xiao Yu began to accelerate.
