Chapter 151: New Roommates
Carlisle nodded in understanding.
No wonder she was so naive. It turned out that these things were so complicated.
She soon brought Audrey to the freshman dormitory that she had been a.s.signed to.
The Templar Knights occupied a large area, and they were only in a small corner. There was another building next to the freshman dormitory, which was for senior students. Carlisle had especially reminded Audrey.
This was because the higher the level of a person, the more they would be aware of their territory. They did not wish for the lower-level people to get close to their place.
It was also because of this that there would often be conflicts between the freshmen and the seniors, resulting in fights. Other than the particularly strong freshmen who could win this battle, the rest were basically beaten to a pulp.
“So, teacher, I would like to ask, aren’t there only five out of the twenty-five of us? Is there any other way to enter the Temple Knights?” Audrey asked.
This was because she had just noticed a few familiar faces. They definitely did not look like they had entered through the trial.
Carlisle nodded.
“There are many ways to enter the Templar Knights. What you have chosen is just one of them. There are actually quite a number of students enrolled each year, but the number of people who can stay can be counted on one’s fingers. So, don’t unconsciously relax just because you’ve entered. What you’ll face in the future might be a thousand times more difficult than the trial you’re facing now.
“However, don’t worry. Those who can enter have pa.s.sed the certification. It’s not like what you think. You can enter just by signing up.”
Audrey lowered her eyes in thought and nodded.
It was just as she had guessed.
Although there was a saying among the people that only those who pa.s.sed the trial could enter the Templar Knights.
But looking at the current scale, it did not seem like they were planning to choose only five.
Carlisle quickly brought Audrey to the freshman dormitory that she had been a.s.signed to.
The environment of the dormitory building was very good. Just from the looks of it, it looked very beautiful. As Audrey had been accepted in advance, she had been a.s.signed to a three-person room.
She pushed the door open and walked in. She saw that there was already a person standing in the room.
Audrey was a little puzzled. She had clearly been accepted early. Logically speaking, she should have been the first to arrive. Why was there someone who had arrived earlier than her?
The person in front of her was a very gentle-looking girl. Her silver-white long hair fell to her waist, as though it could refract a bright light under the sunlight.
“h.e.l.lo, my name is Barbara. I came in through the pharmacy department.” Barbara smiled as she greeted Audrey.
Seeing how easy it was to get along with the girl in front of her, Audrey raised her hand and politely introduced herself.
After Kelly’s explanation, she roughly understood what she meant. Some people could enter the temple knights through their outstanding fields. For example, Barbara in front of her might be very good at alchemy, that was why she had arrived so long before her.
But the one beside her…
Audrey looked over and saw a pair of long legs arrogantly resting on the windowsill. She was holding a book that she could not read. She was lazily lying on the bed, flipping the pages from time to time to prove that she was still alive.
She was completely different from the gentle Barbara. If Barbara gave her the feeling of a gentle breeze blowing from the river, then this short-haired girl was as wanton and flamboyant as a flame.
“Ross, our new roommate is already here. Why don’t we get to know each other?” Barbara said carefully.
She had actually just arrived not long ago. She was not familiar with Ross, but she did not want to see the atmosphere in their dormitory fall into such an awkward situation, so she could only open her mouth to probe, she wanted to see if the other party was willing to give her face.
The girl known as Ross with short hair raised her hand to stroke her hair and looked up.
“Then, let me introduce myself. My name is Ross and I come from the Madeleine family. However, you should not have heard of me. After all, I am just an unknown small character. I can only get in by luck. I hope we get along.”
With that, she casually waved her hand and continued to immerse herself in her book.
Audrey was stunned. For a moment, she did not know how to respond.
Barbara saw her embarra.s.sment and forced a smile. “Ross is just like that. You don’t have to care too much about her. It’s fine as long as you get to know her.”
Audrey responded. She had wanted to pack up her luggage to see what was missing, but she suddenly felt a strange gaze fall on her.
When she turned around, she found that Ross, who was lying on the bed, had already retracted her gaze, as if she had not looked at her earlier.
Audrey raised her eyebrows.
It turned out that this girl was not as indifferent to everything as she appeared to be.
So she was still a little concerned about her.
After hearing Barbara’s words, Audrey seemed to recall a rumor she had heard about the Madeleine family.
It was said that the Madeleine family valued sons over daughters. As long as there were girls in their children, they would be sent to an Abyss Valley for seven days and seven nights. Only those who were lucky enough to survive were qualified to be a member of the Madeleine family.
