The gate of the Northern Emperor Academy.
A tall figure stood at the entrance, quietly observing the scene inside the gate.
"Senior Brother Zhuge, let’s go, the assessnt competition is about to start."
Behind him, soone looked at the person in front of them with respect. This disciple, who just entered the Northern Emperor Academy this year, had conquered those of them who had been in the Demon Hunting Team for many years within just a few months.
Zhuge Wuliang had joined their Demon Hunting Team three months ago for the demon coordinates. His First Grade strength was already considered top-notch in the Northern Emperor Academy.
Suddenly, soone patted Zhuge Wuliang on the shoulder.
The leader of the Xuanfeng Demon Hunting Team, a First Grade peak expert, Ling Zhan—who had long been reserved as a disciple by a True King of the Zangming Academy.
"They all have high hopes for you. Once I leave, I’ll leave the Xuanfeng Demon Hunting Team to you."
Zhuge Wuliang was taken aback, "Congratulations, Brother Ling."
It seems that this Brother Ling before him was about to break through to the next level.
Above the first ordeal, one must move to the Upper Five Academies. The Ling Zhan in front of him ca from a remote place over a hundred years ago and was willing to join the Xuanfeng Demon Hunting Team because of their similar backgrounds.
The other was indeed extraordinary, being considered a disciple by a True King thirty years ago, making him one of the most remarkable figures in the Northern Emperor Academy.
Ling Zhan did not deny it; instead, he suddenly looked at Zhuge Wuliang with piercing eyes.
"I always thought that after spending a hundred years at the Northern Emperor Academy, helping Master guard the Xuanfeng Demon Hunting Team, I had no more regrets at the Northern Emperor Academy.
Yet... I didn’t expect to et you."
Ling Zhan being valued by a True King was considered a fortunate coincidence. There were several major Demon Hunting Teams within the Northern Emperor Academy, so with long histories and others that erged in recent years.
Xuanfeng was created by the True King Xuanfeng long ago, and the True King cherished the past, valuing the Xuanfeng Demon Hunting Team greatly. Becoming its leader allowed him to enter the True King’s sight and ultimately gain his favor.
Zhuge Wuliang looked at Ling Zhan, "Brother, you an..."
"Hahaha, are you interested in having a match with ?"
A fire suddenly surged in Zhuge Wuliang’s heart.
A Saint’s disciple...
He had seen Ling Zhan’s strength in the East Sea. Coming from Li Taizhou, his foundation was insufficient, both in Martial Technique and True Skill, at most only Third Grade.
But...
He took a deep breath and clasped his hands.
"It’s my wish, I dare not ask!"
Ling Zhan laughed heartily, turned, and said to those behind him.
"Tell the Inspector over there, I want to participate in this assessnt competition too!"
The assessnt competition was said to be an academy-wide affair, but in reality, people like Ling Zhan, who were about to enter the Upper Academy, wouldn’t participate.
...
Ti flew by.
In the blink of an eye, ten days had passed.
A ssage arrived on Xu Guang’s crystal naplate.
It was about the rules for this assessnt competition.
They were pretty much the sa as Lin Aoxue had ntioned.
There are two stages.
The first stage is a peer-level circulating competition. Each disciple would fight a hundred tis within twenty days, gaining one point for each victory, and no points were deducted for losses.
The second stage is the challenge matches.
The top one hundred in the points battle will qualify for the challenge matches and can challenge experts of higher realms. At this stage, the victor gains points, while the loser loses points.
Finally, rankings are determined uniformly according to the points.
The rules brought a feverish atmosphere throughout the Northern Emperor Academy, with everyone in a hurry. It was also the most complete presence of all disciples in the Northern Emperor Academy in recent tis.
In the room.
Bai Xiaozhu was discussing with Jiang Zi Yun about the Third-Grade strong people and Second-Grade masters she had inquired about during this period.
They had great confidence in Xu Guang; in the peer-level circulating competition, Xu Guang’s hundred consecutive victories should not be difficult.
So the two directly started discussing the subsequent challenge matches, helping Xu Guang filter potential opponents.
"Sister Zi Yun, this Jin Buhuan is a good pick. The son of the president of the Golden Bull Chamber of Comrce, low-key in the circulating competition should make him stand out, but he should be relatively weak in the challenge matches, the boss should be able to handle him."
"I heard the Golden Bull Chamber of Comrce is a large business, and the president has the strength of a Saint. I think the true hidden strength of such a successor must be considerable, not a very good choice, but this Long Nian Zhao, who likes to be in the spotlight, should be easier to deal with than soone low-key like Jin Buhuan."
"Long Nian Zhao was a prominent figure who joined the academy fifteen years ago. He has been high-profile in his actions in recent years and even founded the Divine Dragon Demon Hunting Team, so he’s not easy to deal with either."
The two of them continued their discussion.
Xu Guang watched this scene helplessly, shaking his head and not participating.
Suddenly, Bai Xiaozhu rembered sothing, "Oh right, about elixirs, although a Saint is overseeing things, so there’s no need to worry about injuries, I’ve heard that, to accommodate a minority of Qi Refiners, apart from a few forbidden drugs, elixirs are not prohibited."
Jiang Zi Yun’s expression changed slightly, "Aren’t the disciples from those big families taking a huge advantage?"
Bai Xiaozhu nodded helplessly.
Too many people in the Northern Emperor Academy are there upon paying tuition. Over the years, they can’t just spend money; such assessnts must provide them with so hope, right?
"Should we also go out and buy so elixirs for Brother Guang?"
Bai Xiaozhu nodded, "Yes, even if we don’t have much money, we must find a way to buy so powerful elixirs for the boss."
The two girls eagerly walked out.
They did not disturb Xu Guang.
...
At dusk.
Xu Guang exited his cultivation state and saw the two girls returning from outside, but their expressions seed a bit strange.
"What happened?"
Jiang Zi Yun didn’t speak, just took out two porcelain bottles, "Second Grade Jade Elixir, capable of instantly restoring the qi force of a Second Grade expert, valued at over three thousand virtual crystals."
