King

The situation on the mainland has stabilized, and the mountainous territory on the right track is operating step by step. In his free time, Hudson spends all day at home with his wife, children, and lover.

If you put aside your career achievements and indulge in enjoying life in your twenties, he is a negative example of "not thinking about progress".

The reality was just the opposite. Hudson, who stayed at home, became the epitome of a good husband. Frankly speaking, the definition of a good husband in the Aslant continent is really low.

Anyway, Hudson didn't dare to claim this title. He kept his lovers at home, so he couldn't be a good husband.

In this regard, Hudson would like to thank his father-in-law. It was his old man's flowers that influenced Melissa's ideas and led to her current good life.

Out of gratitude to Earl of Oran, Hudson specially customized a batch of potions to restore men's physical strength and sent them there, saving him from being unable to do what he wanted.

Reality perfectly confirms the saying: "When the world is sick and you are normal alone, then you must be sick!"

The Soldier Academy has been established, and several undeveloped hills near the Blackstone Mountains have become the academy's residence.

The school buildings and teaching buildings were built by the students themselves. It's not that Hudson wants to save money, but that teenagers at this age are already the labor force in the family.

The noble disciples were a little struggling, but under the supervision of their mentors, they still completed the task successfully.

It's useless to complain and complain. Since its establishment, the college has adopted a completely closed military management.

If you make a scene, just give it a beating. From the moment they step into the school gate, they are members of the reserve force.

Everyone here is a student, all personal files are sealed, and everyone is receiving the same education regardless of their origin.

Cultural class: reading, literacy, and loyalty to the lord; martial arts class: basic knight training.

In the early stage, the training of knights and warriors is the same, all of which are physical exercises. Only when your physical strength reaches a certain stage can you enter the next step of practice.

Whether they take the knight route or the warrior route in the future depends entirely on their performance in the academy.

Qualification is an important factor affecting future development, but it is not the only factor.

Theoretically, if students with lower qualifications work hard enough, they will also have the opportunity to obtain the "original liquid of life" and become a knight.

In the continent of Aslant, most of the noble children entered the realm of knighthood at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and there was a watershed after that.

Geniuses quickly distance themselves from their peers, and in the following decades, they usher in a period of rapid growth in personal strength.

Everyone awakens the seeds of life at an early age. Naturally, it is not because basic training is holding back, but because the body's natural growth has not kept up.

Failure to keep up with physical development and early awakening of the seeds of life will affect future development potential. If the life seed is awakened too late, the period of rapid growth in strength will be wasted.

After countless years of exploration, everyone has come to the conclusion that the best time to awaken the seeds of life is at the age of fifteen or sixteen.

For many people in the academy, the best awakening period has actually been missed, but this is not important at all.

They are not cultivating strong men in batches. The upper limit of their personal potential will not affect their ability to become an excellent soldier.

Today is a special day. The first round of assessment since admission is about to begin, and it also means the start of the knockout rounds.

It cannot be said that Jackie Chan will become an adult just by watching this wave, but those who are eliminated in the first round will basically be limited to the bottom class in their future lives.

In order to show his attention, Mr. Hudson, as the principal of the college, personally came to preside over the assessment.

Because of their different positioning, the assessment and elimination standards of the two academies of magic and martial arts are completely different.

The Knight Academy is nominally training soldiers, but in fact it is training junior officers. The main focus is "strictness".

Cultural courses and martial arts courses account for 20% and 80% respectively. The comprehensive score is calculated and a 10% final elimination system is implemented.

The Magic Academy is different. There is no fixed quota for elimination. As long as you can become a magic migrant worker, you can stay and continue studying.

As far as Hudson knew, some of the top pharmaceutical students at the Magic Academy could now prepare simple potions.

It is estimated that after a few more months of training, he will be a qualified magic apprentice who can contribute to the territory's pharmaceutical industry.

If you don't have the talent to make medicine, you can still stay and continue learning as long as your cultivation speed reaches the standard.

It can be seen that everyone has worked hard. After the first round of assessment, only three people from the Magic Academy were eliminated.

The Knight Academy is very cruel. No matter how hard they work, 10% of the students will leave.

For the students who enter the academy, this is the place that changes their future destiny.

After finally stepping out of the original circle and seeing a different scenery, who would be willing to leave in such a dejected manner?

For more than 99% of students, this is their only chance. Even if they are noble children, once they are eliminated here, it will be difficult for them to get a second chance in the future.

The world is real, and no one will invest limited resources on losers. Unless all the heirs in front of them die, they can no longer expect to obtain resources from the family.

Frankly speaking, this assessment is unfair. The original family is different, and everyone’s background is also different. Just because everyone enrolls in school together does not mean that everyone is on the same starting line.

Many aristocratic children completed the basic training of knights before entering the school and joined the Soldier Academy. In addition to being attracted by the reputation of Hudson, they came mostly for the Essence of Life.

It would be fine if a child of a minor noble had only one or two brothers and sisters, but if he had many brothers and sisters like Hudson, he would have to compete if he wanted to get a share of the life essence.

Baron Redman was doing well in a radius of dozens of miles, and the fact that Lesoul had to attack Hudson for a piece of life liquid was enough to illustrate the problem.

It is not uncommon in the aristocratic world for brothers to fall out due to competition for training resources.

One step to heaven, one step to hell. Born into a noble family, no one wants to become a commoner.

The emergence of the Mountain Territory Soldier Academy made countless young nobles who were suffering from the lack of life essence see an opportunity and sent their children in through connections.

Although it seemed to them that it was very embarrassing to compete with the children of serfs, no one thought that their children would lose.

Since you can win, there is no need to worry. Many people even think that Hudson arranged so many people to come in and run with him just to increase pressure on their juniors and stimulate their potential.

Judging from the students' scores, the gap is also very wide. The aristocratic children who had the first-mover advantage almost took over the previous rankings.

"Everyone performed very well in this assessment. As a reward, I have decided that students who are over fifteen years old, ranked in the top 20%, and have completed the basic training of knights will be granted the qualification to exchange life essence in advance.

Since none of you have any contribution points, as long as you are willing to join the Snow Moon Knights and serve for twenty years, you can get a copy of the life essence. "

Hudson said with a smile.

From the first day of his freshman year, he knew the nobles' plans. But the thugs who came to your door were not wasted.

Without the contribution of these guys, his knights don't know how long it will take to get it together. If it hadn't been for Hudson's deliberate effort, there wouldn't have been so many aristocratic children.

Nominally, everyone is between 12 and 18 years old, but those bearded guys look a little too mature.

Some of these older young people, let alone 18 years old, may even be over 28 years old. Normally, they would have been like this their entire lives.

Joining the Soldier Academy is already a last ditch effort for these people. They were able to change their age and sneak in just because their family was related to the Koslow family.

In this regard, Hudson is very generous. No matter which branch recommended the person, as long as he was of pure origin and had no entanglements with major forces, he would accept them all.

Limited by vision, the value in everyone's eyes is not equal.

From Hudson's point of view, Life Liquid is just an ordinary magic potion, and as long as he is willing, he can achieve small-scale mass production.

In the eyes of a small noble, the life liquid becomes priceless. Hudson granted this valuable strategic resource to this group of over-age children with no development potential because they were all relatives.

Distant relatives are also relatives, and the treatment of one's own people is higher than that of outsiders.

Including in the academy, Hudson is also constantly instilling the concept of "one of our own" in the students. Noble students who are related to each other are our own, and students who are from common people are also our own.

The effect was very obvious. The teenagers were stunned for a moment after being fooled, and looked at Mr. Hudson with eyes full of "admiration".

The older young people among the students are more rational, but they still have no resistance in front of the life liquid.

Favors were sold, and thugs were hired. Potential or not are all secondary factors. At least in a short period of time, Hudson will have a group of thugs.

Now let's see how many of these students who have completed the knight's basic training can successfully awaken the life seed.

It doesn't matter if you fail, you can still serve Master Hudson as a soldier. With a group of war horses, you can also join the Knights to make up the numbers.

Of course, due to the influence of the training system, even a warrior mounted on a war horse is far less effective than a knight.

To distinguish the strength of a knight's combat effectiveness, you can roughly tell by looking at the proportion of the number of knights in it.

Seeing a group of excited students pretending to be calm in front of him in order to maintain their noble dignity, Hudson smiled even more happily.

Obviously, this investment will definitely not be lost. What people fear most is lack of desire. These guys in front of them are so obsessed with noble status, they are undoubtedly a group of excellent workers.

If you want to obtain noble status without cutting off the heads of a hundred orc soldiers, just dream!

If he wanted to obtain a fief, Hudson thought he could set the beheading target at five hundred. The military merits of the orc royal family and ordinary orcs should be calculated at 1:10.

Specifically, further subdivisions can be made based on different orc races, status and strength. Anyway, the Alpha Kingdom itself has a military title system, and he just digitized the standards.

These big cakes are all for the knights. Theoretically speaking, as long as one is strong and a little lucky, it is possible to achieve one's goals.

Specifically, they could go on an expeditionary legion, follow Hudson from west to east, and kill hundreds of soldiers from foreign races. That was also common.

Taking into account the bonus of killing enemy generals, if there is a complete military merit conversion system, there will be many knights who can gather 500 beast-head skills.

Of course, these people also gained what they wanted. Although the location of the fiefdom was not ideal, it still transcended classes.

The more he thought about it, the more Hudson felt that Qin Chao's level 20 military meritorious officer was powerful. The standards for rewards have been institutionalized and clarified, covering everyone in the military.

Step by step, every soldier can see hope for further progress. In comparison, the military merit system of the Alpha Kingdom is too rough.

Having accomplished great feats, one can indeed become a noble in one fell swoop. But for most ordinary soldiers, killing hundreds of orc soldiers is simply impossible.

The painted pie is completely prepared for the children of the nobles. When a private army goes to the battlefield to fight, the battle efficiency is recorded on one person's head, and the probability of standing out is naturally high.

This set of rules for safeguarding the interests of the aristocratic group involves the entire aristocratic group. Naturally, Hudson cannot destroy it, but he still wants to try making detailed changes within the rule system.

Looking back, Hudson did not act blindly. The military merit and title system of the Qin Dynasty was implemented together with the farming and warfare system.

This is obviously in conflict with the mainstream serfdom system in current society. Any reform that touches the fundamentals of the social production system cannot be easily accomplished.

If pushing forward by force doesn't work, then we can only make some changes. Hudson had no idea how to operate it specifically. Anyway, this kind of thing is very troublesome.

"Duke, these are the list of eliminated students. Do you want to..."

Before Kane could finish speaking, Hudson waved his hand and said: "These things are all part of daily teaching, and you guys can just take care of them.

Well, this is the first assessment, so the standards are slightly relaxed. After subtracting the people who obtained the life essence from the total quota, 10% will be eliminated! "

After all, someone needs to be the villain. It can't be Lord Hudson, it can only be other high-level officials in the academy.

Vice presidents, deans of academic affairs...appointing them to important positions is not to let them fill the world with talents, but to effectively solve problems.

But Hudson's hand finally relaxed. Kick out these students who have obtained the life essence, and then eliminate the bottom ten percent. At least 500 students will temporarily escape.

However, this kind of luck only comes once. If they fail to roll up within the next three months, they will appear on the next batch of elimination lists.

They were also eliminated. For the students who were born as serfs, every additional period of support was an opportunity.

When they leave the academy, they also take with them the fruits of their learning. Whether it is cultural knowledge or physical fitness improved during training, it is a valuable asset.

After a few more periods of support, even if they are eliminated, the second-tier army will still rush for it.

People who have received basic knight training are much stronger than ordinary people in terms of personal physical strength and combat experience.

The Soldiers Academy naturally trains soldiers. Those who were eliminated were all soldiers trained by Hudson, and those who remained at the end were officers.

At the end of the three-year study period, after wandering around the Knights and achieving some military exploits, Hudson would look for opportunities to send potential young men to serve as officers in ordinary legions.

Unlike the officers of the past, all they had to do was follow orders. They also have to bear the heavy responsibility of stationing overseas strongholds and resisting the invasion of orcs.

…

With the departure of Hudson, there was a scene of sadness and joy on campus, and countless people stared at the announcement on the wall.

The students who ranked in the top 20% and were eligible to apply for the Life Essence were scolding Fang Qiu one by one, as if their achievements were just around the corner.

The bottom-ranked students on the other side all stood there with ashen faces, completely unable to believe that they had been eliminated.

"impossible!"

"This is impossible!"

"Wow……"

I don’t know who took the lead. In the blink of an eye, the campus was full of crying.

Especially those students who just got eliminated were crying the most sadly at this moment. It's just a little bit different. If I had worked harder in normal times, it would be a different situation now.

However, no matter how sad you cry, it can't change the fact that you were eliminated.

The students who were close to the score line and were lucky enough to stay in school were also complaining secretly while surviving the disaster.

There is not much time left for their efforts. If you don’t want to leave in despair, you must try your best in the next three months.

The problem is that they have to work hard and others are not idle either. Witnessing a former classmate being eliminated from the competition is a stimulant to everyone's nerves.

Even the students who were high-spirited just now stopped smiling under the influence of the sad atmosphere.

Obtaining the life liquid is only the first step. If they cannot awaken the life seeds, their future situation will not be much better.

Theoretically speaking, as long as there are enough resources to pile up, even without any qualifications, it is enough to pile up a knight, but the price that needs to be paid is very shocking.

Resource players have nothing to do with them. The choice left to them is only one success. Failure means the dream of knighthood is shattered.

Looking at the crying students, the instructors' faces were also gloomy and scary. They all came from the bottom and knew very well how important this opportunity was to the students in front of them.

But there is no way, the world is cruel, and students will eventually leave here.

"Stop whining!"

"Everyone cheered me up. Even if I want to leave, I have to straighten my back and walk out of here.

There is still a long road ahead in life. I have left all the basic training methods to you. You can still practice by yourself after you return.

The Duke wants to open up the Xueyue Territory, and a war will definitely follow. As long as you make contributions on the battlefield, why not worry about not having a chance! "

Instructor Felix reprimanded him earnestly.

He doesn't want these students to sink like this. Even if the road ahead will become more difficult after leaving here, as long as they keep going, there will be hope.

This group of tutors in the academy is the best example. Except for a few lucky ones who are from noble families, the rest have followed Hudson through life and death and fought their way out.

Most of them had never even been exposed to orthodox knight training before becoming knights.

It was only because he was trained in the army, his physical fitness reached the standard for awakening the life seeds, and he happened to have made enough contributions that he was rewarded with the life essence.

Compared with pure knight training, those who crawled out from the dead, after taking the life essence, the probability of awakening the seeds of life is much higher than that of ordinary people.

"Teacher Felix, can we really do this?"

A boy of thirteen or fourteen asked uncertainly.

"have no idea!"

"Based on your current situation, I think it's better to go home and farm. The army is really not suitable for you.

If you can strengthen your faith, report to the military immediately after leaving here, and continue training, there will always be hope for the future.

Judging from the proportion, about 2% of the elite legions in the territory have awakened the seeds of life without being trained as knights! "

Felix said in a low tone.
