The Ming Dynasty took an unconventional approach

Chapter 577 It’s you, it’s you, it’s you

The students' eyes lit up and they asked, "Master, can anyone go?"

"Are those with low abilities going to die?" Zhang Ziwang said, "Letting you go out to gain experience is to broaden your horizons, not to let you lose your life or cause trouble for your senior brothers and sisters. Therefore, all first, second, and third year students who want to go out must go through an assessment."

Pan Yun's eyes widened: "First-year students are also OK?"

Zhang Ziwang glanced at her and said, "After the assessment."

After the assessment, only one student named Qu Le passed the entire freshman class. Oh, if Tao Yanbai, who skipped a grade, is also counted, then there are only two students.

As for the second-year students, including Pan Yun’s fourth nephew, there are nine in total.

There are not many third-year students, only ten in total.

Therefore, the majority of those who went out for training this time were fourth- and fifth-year students.

Excluding those disciples who were training outside and could not come back, or those who did not receive the news, a total of seventy-eight people were selected from the two grades.

The list came out very quickly.

Pan Yun and the others squeezed to the notice wall and breathed a sigh of relief when they saw their names. Then they couldn't help but mutter, "I always feel like there's some behind-the-scenes manipulation going on."

"Of course there is," Miao He whispered, "The cultivation requirement is the fourth stage, which eliminated a lot of people. We are just barely qualified, and Qu Le can't beat us. His martial arts skills are at most the end of the third stage. How can he do it?"

Pan Yun: "This is cooperation, the cooperation between Tianshi Mansion and Wulin League, and Qu Le is the hub. But... his martial arts skills are not good enough, and now he is a disciple of the academy. If something happens to him, wouldn't it be a diplomatic crisis?"

Tao Yanbai was puzzled: "Diplomatic crisis?"

Miao Zhen: "The diplomatic crisis between Tianshi Mansion and Wulin League."

Pan Yun gloated: "It seems that the academy needs someone to protect Qu Le. I wonder who is so unlucky."

The next day, Pan Yun stood in Chongqing Courtyard with a look of disbelief: "I take him? Why?"

"Why?" Zhang Ziwang asked, "Because this is the arrangement of the academy! Do you think this is your own experience? You can do whatever you want and go wherever you want?"

He said: "This is a collaboration between the Tianshi Mansion and the Wulin Alliance, aimed at clearing out the Japanese pirates along the coast. It is a collective action, and you must follow orders!"

Pan Yun's cheeks puffed up with anger.

"Don't be angry, don't be angry," Xue Taixu said with a smile, "Pan Yun, this is the trust of the Tianshi Mansion in your ability. You should know that in the entire fifth grade, only you have reached the first marquis level. Besides you, who else can take on this important task?"

Pan Jun pointed directly at the smiling Li Wenying.

The smile on Li Wenying's face disappeared instantly, and she said in a deep voice: "I am a teacher. I have to ensure the safety of the entire student team."

Xue Taixu said: "Mr. Li and the others will naturally protect Qu Le, but there are a total of 98 students in the academy going out, and they can only pay very little attention to Qu Le. You have to provide close protection."

Pan Yun: "Can't he just be a mascot at the base camp?"

Zhang Ziwang said, "This time, the sea charts, the coordinates of the pirate den, and the coastal villages where the pirates hide were all provided by the Wulin Alliance. Qu Le is the middleman. If our academy can't even protect him, how can the Tianshi Mansion have the confidence to cooperate with others in the future?"

Pan Yun: "The court doesn't have these things?"

Zhang Ziwang was silent for a moment and then said, "Yes, but what we have taken out may not be as complete and accurate as what the Wulin Alliance has."

Pan Yun frowned: "Is the navy so weak now?"

Zhang Ziwang glared at her and warned her, "Although the imperial court did not send troops to participate this time, there may be people from the imperial court in the team. I advise you to be careful with your words and actions outside and not to cause trouble."

Pan Yun was puzzled: "Since the court is determined to suppress the bandits, why not send the navy to participate openly and take the lead in the name of the court? Isn't it better than us cooperating with the Wulin Alliance?"

Zhang Ziwang frowned and was about to speak, but Xue Taixu spoke before him: "The court is not ruled by one person. There are always people with conflicting opinions. One wants to send troops, and the other opposes. By the time they reach a consensus, it will be too late."

Zhang Ziwang couldn't help but call out, "Mr. Xue!" Xue Taixu smiled and said, "They are all our own people. There is nothing to hide."

He said to Pan Yun: "In terms of grievances, they only have more than us, not less. They can only obey the decisions of the superiors. But they are willing to serve privately to suppress the bandits, which shows their loyalty.

If they died on the battlefield, they would receive a pension, and the court would support the weak and the elderly. But if they died privately at sea, their families might not receive any news about them for the rest of their lives, or even know whether they are alive or dead.

Pan Yun thought of her parents from her previous life.

She lowered her eyes and said nothing.

Xue Taixu said: "Don't think that Qu Le's low martial arts skills will cause trouble for you. The value he gave to enter my academy is far higher than that of the First Marquis. The sea charts in the hands of the Wulin Alliance, the coordinates of the pirates' nest, and their hiding places on land are secrets that they have sacrificed countless people to find out.

Even the navy can't trust them, so why are they willing to share this information with the academy for free?"

Xue Taixu said: "Protecting the contact person they sent is our academy's sincerity. This person can be Qu Le, Wang Le, Zhang Le, or Qian Le."

Pan Yun understood and responded solemnly: "Yes, disciple obeys your command."

Xue Taixu stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Well, June is coming soon, you should also prepare to go down the mountain, go ahead."

Pan Yun bowed and left.

Zhang Zifang watched Pan Jun leave. As soon as she left, he immediately turned to look at Zhang Ziwang, took a look at him, and immediately stared at Xue Taixu.

Xue Taixu was still smiling, and asked with a smile in his eyes: "What are you looking at, Zifang?"

Zhang Zifang: "I wonder what is so special about Ms. Xue. Why is it that when we talk to her, she is as excited as if she had eaten firecrackers, but when you talk to her, she agrees without hesitation?"

Xue Taixu: "I think this child is very good and reasonable. It's obviously you who are wrong."

Everyone:...

Only Li Wenying nodded: "They have such bad tempers that they are annoying."

Xue Taixu nodded in agreement: "You guys just won't learn your lesson. Pan Jun is a person who will only respond to soft words and not hard ones. Next time, you should talk to her properly and give in when she is wrong. She usually won't care."

Everyone:...

Zhang Ziwang stood up and said, "Since Qu Le has been arranged, I will go see Alliance Leader Lin first."

Pan Yun returned to Fengqi Courtyard and sighed to his fellow apprentices in the courtyard: "That unlucky guy has won."

Miao Zhen Miao and the three had already forgotten about yesterday's topic and looked puzzled: "Ah? What unlucky guy?"

Pan Yun: "The unlucky guy who brought Qu Le."

Miao Zhen looked at Junior Master's face and had a bad feeling: "Who is it?"

Pan Yun pointed at them and went over one by one: "You, you, you,"

Finally, he pointed at his nose and said, "And me!"

Three people:......

Seeing that the atmosphere was not good, Tao Yanbai hurriedly said, "Uncle Junior Master, you have a letter today."

Pan Yun: "Where did it come from?"

"Jian."
