Falling in Love to Escape the Original Book Plot [BL]-Chapter 39: Divine Rainbow Academy 1

"Three junior brothers, do you need a guide?" A voice asked.

Hearing the words, Shen Xu sighed in relief.

At first, he thought the group were members of the Shi family or academy elders.

Knowing they were guides, he smiled and looked at the four people.

"Junior brothers, you are new to the academy. Without a guide, you won’t be able to easily get around." The voice spoke again.

"We only need one." Song Wancheng said and pointed at the double who spoke first.

"Thank you, junior brother." The double smiled and came forward.

Seeing this, the remaining three walked away and went to look for other newcomers.

"My name is Ruan Ning. I am a second-year student in the school of martial arts." The double introduced himself.

"I am Song Wancheng and they are Zhen Yuan and Shen Xu." Song Wancheng introduced.

"It’s nice to meet the junior brothers." Ruan Ning said and quickly continued.

"If you just need to get to the dormitory, the cost is ten spirit stones. However, if you want a tour of the academy, the cost is five hundred spirit stones. What kind of guidance do you need?" Ruan Ning asked with a solemn expression.

"The whole academy." Shen Xu immediately answered.

"Do you want to go to the dormitory first or go there last?"

"Go there last."

When he heard this, Ruan Ning nodded and spoke as he led the way.

"The classrooms are closest to the gate. Let’s go there first." He said and the other three didn’t object.

An incense stick later, the four arrived in the classroom area.

"Each school has its own area. These classrooms belong to the school of inscription." Ruan Ning said and pointed to a block of classrooms.

After that, he led them to the talisman school, alchemy school, weapon refining school, formation school, and finally, the martial arts school.

"Although classes are not mandatory, each school has an examination at the end of each month. However, the monthly examinations are also not mandatory. Only the year-end examination is compulsory. If you can’t take the year-end examination, you must report to your school dean in time." Ruan Ning reminded.

"If the monthly examinations are not compulsory, what is their point?" Shen Xu asked with a confused expression.

"Each year has three levels of classes- yellow class, profound class, and heaven class. The heaven class has the best teachers and consequently, the best performance."

"When you first enter the academy, everyone is placed in the yellow class. After the first monthly examination, the newcomers are allocated to the three classes. If one wants to enter a better class, they must do well in the monthly examination."

"Is that so?" Shen Xu nodded.

However, he didn’t take the classes seriously.

Although he wanted to study weapon refining, cultivation came first.

As early as possible, he would retreat to change his cultivation technique and advance to the foundation establishment realm. Only after he came out of seclusion would he think about taking classes.

"Junior brothers, is there anything else you want to know about classes?" Ruan Niang asked.

At that, the three looked at each other and shook their heads.

Seeing this, Ruan Ning led them away from the class area.

Half an hour later, they arrived at the mission hall.

"Other than during the year-end holiday, students can only leave the academy for missions. If you want to earn spirit stones or leave the academy, you can take a mission from the mission hall." Ruan Ning informed.

"What kinds of missions are there?" Yuan Zhen asked.

"The tasks can be as easy as collecting herbs or as difficult as tracking down and killing a wanted criminal. Different tasks have different requirements and different rewards."

After learning more about the mission hall, the group visited the trading area, herb fields, and restaurant.

"The first floor offers free food. However, the food is ordinary." Ruan Ning said and frowned.

As a martial arts practitioner, he needed a lot of energy.

Unfortunately, Ruan Ning came from a poor family.

Most of the time, he made do with bigu pills and when he couldn’t stand it, he would eat the ordinary food on the first floor.

’Maybe I will treat myself to some level one monster meat after this job.’ He thought and subconsciously glanced at the restaurant’s second floor.

Soon after, he led the group away from the restaurant.

A quarter of an hour later, they arrived in front of a five-storey building.

"This is our academy’s library." He introduced.

"Can you tell us more about the library?" Zhen Yuan asked and Ruan Ning immediately nodded.

"As you can see, the library has five floors. The first floor is free but it only has general books. All the valuable books are on the upper floors."

"The second floor has level one books, the third has level two books, and the fourth has level three books." Ruan Ning swallowed and then continued.

"The fifth floor is restricted. If you want to enter the fifth floor, you must have permission from the dean of your school or the dean of the academy."

"How many spirit stones are needed to read books in the library?" Shen Xu asked.

"As I said, the first floor is free." Ruan Ning started.

"The second floor requires one hundred spirit stones per hour, the third requires one thousand per hour, and the fourth requires ten thousand per hour."

Hearing this, Shen Xu frowned.

He didn’t expect the library to be so expensive.

"So expensive?" He asked and Ruan Ning nodded.

"If you want to stay in the library for a long time, there are study rooms for rent. It requires one thousand spirit stones to rent a study room for one day."

"This Divine Rainbow Academy really knows how to make spirit stones." Shen Xu grumbled.

"Although it is expensive, the books in the library are very valuable. There are also some cultivation technique books, martial arts books, and minor inheritances." Ruan Ning said with a yearning expression.

However, he quickly regained his composure and smiled at the three.

"The library is expensive but it is not the most expensive place in the Divine Rainbow Academy." He said and turned around.
