C403 Freshman assessment

Ye Xingchen defeating Zhong Yongli, this matter spread outside the courtyard with the fastest speed possible.

And Ye Xingchen's name, once again, let everyone know that Zhong Yongli was a First Transition of Grandmaster Stage practitioner. Furthermore, he was the one who was ranked forty-seventh on the Grandmaster Ranking.

After Ye Xingchen defeated Zhong Yongli, his Grandmaster Ranking immediately went up to forty-seventh place.

In a few short days, not only did Ye Xingchen manage to ascend to the Grandmaster Ranking, he even defeated Zhong Yongli, which made everyone feel that it was inconceivable.

The sounds of discussion from the outside world did not stop, but Ye Xingchen was cultivating inside his Green Bamboo Garden.

Ye Xingchen had already been in the Wind Spirit Academy for more than four months. Three days later, it would be the first time the first-year students would be taking the examination, and if a student couldn't make it through, they would be expelled from the Wind Spirit Academy.

Wind Spirit Academy would not accept weak people. If one's Wind Spirit Academy had not improved at all after four months of cultivation, then what right did one have to continue staying in the Wind Spirit Academy.

Of course, after the exam, there would be a break for one month. After one month, he would return to class.

Ye Xingchen was also extremely excited. He could finally go find Xiao Shi and Xiao Hu, he had not seen them for more than two months.

The second and third year students didn't need to take any exams, so they were all on vacation today. Most of the students in the outer courtyard had already left the academy and were preparing to return home.

Just as Ye Xingchen was training in his Green Bamboo Garden independent courtyard, suddenly, his Dragon Gang came to Ye Xingchen's independent courtyard.

After Ye Xingchen saw Wan Qingyun, his expression changed slightly, and he slowly stood up.

"Ye Xingchen, I came here today to inform you that after a month, when we return to the Wind Spirit Academy, I will challenge you." There was not a trace of anger on Wan Qingyun's face.

But Ye Xingchen knew, this kind of person was scary. He would never reveal his killing intent until the critical moment, when he would give you the most fatal blow.

"Anytime." Ye Xingchen said indifferently.

Wan Qingyun only said a few words before he left. He did not say anything to Ye Xingchen.

In the end, Wan Qingyun left the Wind Spirit Academy as well.

In merely a day's time, only the first grade students had such a large amount of Wind Spirit Academy Outer Courtyard left. Amongst these first grade students, most of them were members of the Star Club.

In these three days, Ye Xingchen did not plan to go to class, and prepared to train properly.

Even the Fatty Luo Fei was no longer smiling as he started to cultivate. He would be locked in his room all day to cultivate.

And these few days, Ye Xingchen was also unceasingly familiarizing himself with the second form of Divine Dragon Nine Transformations, soaring in the wind.

Within these three days, all the first grade students were diligently cultivating. They had entered the Wind Spirit Academy with great difficulty, and they did not want to be eliminated either.

On the third day, many students left their dormitories and walked to the square.

Even Ye Xingchen was no exception, he walked shoulder-to-shoulder with the fatty and arrived at the plaza.

At this moment, the square was packed with people. Most of the students had already arrived.

And on the plaza stood a person Ye Xingchen was more familiar with. Zhu Tianzhao, beside him, was the manager of the three classes for the first grade.

Zhu Tianzhao glanced at all the first grade students who were present, then slowly walked to the Plaza Center, and loudly said: "Today is our annual Wind Spirit Academy's freshmen assessment. All new students, you must have a proper assessment;

Hearing Zhu Tianzhao's words, some of the students' faces changed, but to Ye Xingchen, it was nothing, it was just a formality.

"Of course, our assessment this time will be the testing monument. It won't be a test of talent, but a test of strength." Zhu Tianzhao said once again.

Everyone nodded in agreement. They knew that the stone monument was a test of strength.

"Alright, we won't take up too much of everyone's time. Let's begin the test." Zhu Tianzhao said loudly.

During this time, a student could not help but ask Zhu Tianzhao, "Deacon Zhu, what standard do you have to reach to not be expelled from the Wind Spirit Academy?"

Hearing this student ask Zhu Tianzhao, everyone looked at Zhu Tianzhao. They too, wanted to know what kind of standard it was.

Zhu Tianzhao revealed a slight smile on his face, and then, loudly said. "Middle Grandmaster Stage, is the lowest standard."

After hearing what Zhu Tianzhao said, most of the people revealed smiles.

After all, the students who were able to come to the Wind Spirit Academy were all talented students whose strengths were basically above the Middle Grandmaster Stage.

Although they were considered outstanding in their own city, when they arrived at the Wind Spirit Academy where all the stars were gathered, they could only be considered as the last.

With the first student's test, the first year freshmen assessment officially began.

The first student stepped onto the stone tablet and punched onto it. Instantly, the stone tablet displayed his strength, Middle Grandmaster Stage, and passed the test.

When Zhu Tianzhao saw it, he nodded.

Following which, the second round of the examination began. Just like that, one examination after another was carried out, and most of the students were able to pass the examination.

And right at the thirty-fifth time, a student did not reach the minimum standard, and only blasted all the way to the peak of the Early Grandmaster Stage.

Zhu Tianzhao looked at it and slowly shook his head.

This student was a student of the third class. After Lin Qingxian saw that, she walked in front of Zhu Tianzhao and said in a low voice: "Deacon Zhu, I understand this student better. Do you think it's possible to give him a chance?"

From Lin Qingxian's impression, this student should be able to reach the level of his Middle Grandmaster Stage. He must have been a little nervous just now, so Lin Qingxian wanted to help him fight for a chance.

"Hmph, the students in my class weren't good to begin with, yet you shamelessly tried to buy a chance for me." The person in charge of Class 1, Zhou Hongyu, said with a cold voice.

"That's right. Class 3 is the worst class among the freshmen, and most of them should be eliminated." The person in charge of class two, Lin Aoyu, also said in a cold voice.

The two of them had never looked down upon Class 3 in the first place, but they did not dare to call Lin Qingxian by his name either. After all, Lin Qingxian was the only level 4 alchemist in the academy, and her status was extremely high.

However, this was a good opportunity. With the Deacon Zhu here and their students eliminated, the two of them would definitely add insult to injury.

"Deacon Zhu, if you give this student a chance, is it unfair to the other students?" The person in charge of Class One directly walked in front of Zhu Tianzhao and said loudly.

"That's right, Deacon Zhu, let's not talk about whether this matter is feasible or not. Lin Qingxian is in charge of the Third Class, but she did not care what methods she used to make the students of the Third Class stay." Lin Ao Yu from Class Two also said loudly.

It was only at this moment that the many students heard their conversation. They also knew that Lin Qingxian was pleading for mercy for the students of the third class.

As for the student who had just blown his Early Grandmaster Stage to the peak, after hearing this, he was even more touched.

Lin Qingxian did not even pay attention to the two's words as she looked at Zhu Tianzhao with her beautiful eyes.

Zhu Tianzhao pondered for a long time, then said: "Since that's the case, then for all those who failed the examination, let them have a chance in the end." Zhu Tianzhao said loudly.

After all, Lin Qingxian was the only level 4 alchemist amongst the students, her position was noble. Originally, she didn't need to come to lead the class, but Lin Qingxian insisted on doing so.

Although Zhu Tianzhao was a deacon, his status was still not as high as Lin Qingxian.

As for Zhou Hong Yu and Lin Ao Yun, after hearing what Zhu Tianzhao said, their faces were ashen, but they did not dare to say anything.

The test was extremely quick. In just two hours, there were already more than 80 people who had completed the test. And of these 80 people, only three of them did not meet the standard.

The next test was Fatty Luo Fei, so everyone looked at Luo Fei.

Luo Fei let out a loud laugh as he walked in front of the test monument and casually threw out a punch.

"Boom …"

A loud sound came from the test monument. Everyone looked over, and shockingly discovered that Luo Fei had actually broken through to the peak of the Late Grandmaster Stage.

Everyone was surprised, the top ten freshmen were indeed stronger than the last.

The next few tests were the tests by the other top ten freshmen. The most outstanding one could be considered Gongsun Zhi, as he led the participants with his strength.

When Gongsun Zhi finished his test, he looked at Ye Xingchen. Most of the students were members of Star Club.

When they saw Gongsun Zhi looking at Ye Xingchen, they also looked at him.

When Ye Xingchen saw the crowd's gaze, he helplessly shook his head before walking to the front of the testing monument.

Seeing that Ye Xingchen wanted to take the test, even Lin Qingxian and Zhu Tianzhao became a little interested, as they stared at the stone tablet.

As for Zhou Hong Yu and Lin Ao Yun, their faces were gloomy and filled with a trace of anger.

"Boom …"

Ye Xingchen only made a simple punch, and it directly struck the testing monument. Everyone looked over, and to their shock, they discovered that Ye Xingchen had actually used his First Transition of Grandmaster Stage's strength.

Of course, what no one knew was that Ye Xingchen had not used his greatest strength yet.

After Ye Xingchen's test, everyone was shocked, but the following test was already boring.

After seeing Ye Xingchen's test, he did not want to see anyone else's test.

Just like that, after more than four hours of testing, it was basically over.

Only six people failed the test. Of course, of the six people who passed the test, four passed the test. Only two people failed the test.

Finally, Zhu Tianzhao announced that the examination for the new students had concluded. The two students who didn't pass the examination were no longer students of Wind Spirit Academy.

To Ye Xingchen and the others, the test was just a formality.

And after the assessment, Ye Xingchen became even more excited, because he was about to see Xiao Shi and Xiao Hu.
