Chapter 62 Level Challenge and Final Elimination
Back to the gate of the manor, Kong Hong was already waiting there.
He had already learned about the passing of the exam from the candidates who had left early, and he would still be in a daze, standing there for a long time without being able to recover.
It wasn't until seeing Lin Shen coming out that he woke up like a dream, and looked at Lin Shen in amazement.
In the past few months, Lin Shen has brought him one surprise after another.
Whenever he thinks that this is Lin Shen's limit, the latter can often refresh his cognition again.
Now even the chief of the exam has been obtained!
This is undoubtedly the first time in the history of Jiuyang Taoist Temple!
Kong Hong didn't know how to describe his mood at this moment, his chest was filled with shock and admiration.
It was not until Lin Shen approached that Kong Hong calmed down a little, and said with a smile:
"You have won the chief position of the exam this time, and the college will definitely give you a lot of rewards. Remember to come to the college tomorrow to collect it!"
"I see, thank you teacher."
Lin Shen did not take the bus from Huailiu College, but left with Yang Zhongyi and Su Nian.
Watching the vehicle of the three of them go away, Kong Hong slowly looked away and sighed with emotion.
"The academy is probably going to be a sensation!"
"cheers!"
In the spacious and bright box, Lin Shen, Yang Zhongyi, and Su Nian sat together and toasted together.
"Old Lin has become famous this time, tsk tsk, the first freshman chief in the history of Jiuyang Daoist Academy from a non-family background!"
Yang Zhongyi poured down a full glass of beer in one go, shaking his head and sighing.
"Zhao Xueying, Xue Feng, Chong Yan and so many powerful people this year were all defeated by Lao Lin. This has to be changed before the big exam. Whoever tells me this kind of thing, I will be the first to not believe it!"
"Lin Shen's performance today is really amazing." Su Nian agreed with deep approval.
"Okay, don't just praise me." Lin Shen shook his head and laughed, "The two of you have also entered the top fifteen."
Mentioning this, a smug smile appeared on Yang Zhongyi's face.
Even if he is a direct descendant of the five famous families, he can be called the twelfth place in the big exam, which is not bad enough.
What's more, the elites gathered in this year's exam, the competition is far more intense than in previous years, and the gold content of the ranking is higher.
Su Nian also slightly raised the corners of his mouth, with a smile on his face.
Although he was far behind Lin Shen, the fifteenth place result had already met his psychological expectations.
"Old Yang, tell me about the Nine Suns Daoist Academy." Lin Shen said suddenly.
Although he has checked the affairs of Jiuyang Taoist Academy in private, there are some things that outsiders cannot know after all.
Only people like Yang Zhongyi who came from an eighteen-year-old family of cultivation could have a deeper understanding of Jiuyang Taoist Temple through family channels.
Su Nian also showed an expression of listening.
Because of his family background, he doesn't know much more about Jiuyang Taoist Temple than Lin Shen.
Hearing this, Yang Zhongyi had nothing to do, organized his language a little, and then began to speak slowly.
"You should all know that Nine Suns Daoist Academy is divided into upper and lower houses. The upper house is too far away from us, so let's not talk about it. For the lower house, disciples are divided into four levels from high to low according to their status. "
"Then how to improve the level?" Su Nian asked.
Yang Zhongyi took a mouthful of food in a leisurely manner, and then continued:
"The number of disciples of each level is fixed."
"For example, there are only 50 places for the highest level of heaven-level disciples. If earth-level disciples want to upgrade their level, they can only defeat the heaven-level disciples and replace them to succeed!"
"The same is true for Xuan-level disciples who want to become Earth-level disciples."
"Every three months, the Taoist Academy will hold a level challenge. Lower-level disciples can apply to challenge higher-level disciples. As long as they succeed, they can replace them!"
"Then what level are we freshmen who have just entered the Taoist academy?" Lin Shen asked.
"As far as I know, there are currently five hundred and seventy-one people in the Lower Court, including fifty disciples of the heavenly class, one hundred of the disciples of the earthly class, two hundred of the disciples of the mysterious class, and the remaining two hundred and twenty-one are the disciples of the yellow class. disciple."
"And there are a total of 300 places for Huang-level disciples. In other words, the top 79 freshmen in this year's exam will be Huang-level disciples after entering the Daoist Academy, and the remaining 121 freshmen will be non-ranked disciples." , only allocated the minimum amount of cultivation resources.”
Lin Shen and Su Nian couldn't help being stunned, they didn't expect Jiuyang Daoyuan to have such a rule.
Suddenly, Su Nian suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly said:
"That's not right, Zhongyi, I remember that Jiuyang Taoist Academy has a five-year system and recruits 200 students every year. Even if one class of disciples has already graduated, there should still be 800 disciples."
Lin Shen's expression changed, and he suddenly thought of what Ke Ya had said after the final exam.
‘Entering the Taoist Academy does not mean that you will be able to successfully complete the course. '
Sure enough, I heard Yang Zhongyi say:
"The House of Commons will eliminate the last 50 disciples every year, plus those who went crazy during cultivation, died while performing missions, and the number of disciples who died due to various accidents, the remaining 500 or so disciples are already too many! "
Lin Shen's eyes flickered slightly.
Level challenge, and elimination of the last place, no wonder it is said that the competition of Jiuyang Daoyuan is extremely fierce, and now it seems that it is true.
"Isn't it too unfair to eliminate fifty disciples every year?" Su Nian frowned and questioned, "Their training time is at least one year shorter than that of the old students, but they have to face the same competition, which is too disadvantageous. gone."
"So what?"
Yang Zhongyi spread his hands.
"There is no complete fairness in this world. If you really want to pay attention to it, the difference in the qualifications of practitioners is the biggest unfairness!"
"What's more, in the eyes of the senior sect, if the aptitude of the disciple is good enough, even if the training time is less than others, he will definitely stand out and be eliminated. Only those who are not good enough and don't work hard enough!"
"No matter how many people like this are eliminated, the Zongmen's senior management will not be distressed."
"To be honest, although this method is a bit strict, it also makes the disciples of the Taoist school better every year. This is an indisputable fact!"
Su Nian was speechless.
"Of course, those eliminated disciples are not just abandoned like this. They can choose to become the outer disciples of Nine Yang Sect, take up various grassroots positions, and even join the Martial Arts Hall. The future is worry-free."
Yang Zhongyi poured a glass of wine for Lin Shen and Su Nian respectively, and continued:
"Okay, don't just think about other people, but also think about ourselves."
"There is still one month until the day to report to the Taoist monastery, and we still have another difficulty to face."
Lin Shen was startled: "What is the difficulty?"
"Guiding battle!"
Yang Zhongyi chuckled, and took a sip from his wine glass.
"The name is that the senior brothers and sisters give advice to the juniors and sisters who have just entered the Taoist academy, but in fact it is a blow from the old students to the new students!"
