"I will."
Chu Han nodded, his eyes full of confidence.
"I'm optimistic about you."
Zhao Hongtao smiled.
"Chu Han, I heard that you have joined Body Refining Academy, and your exclusive tutor is Dean Qiu."
"Well, the teacher went to River City himself the day before yesterday to accept me as his disciple." Chu Han nodded.
"It seems you are very lucky. Dean Qiu has not had an apprentice for thirty years." Zhao Hongtao sighed.
"Oh? Is it because the teacher has high requirements for students' talents?"
"Because Dean Qiu's first apprentice died thirty years ago and was personally killed by Dean Qiu's enemy, so Dean Qiu refused to accept an apprentice for many years and only wanted to break through to 9th Rank for revenge."
"The fact that you can become Dean Qiu's apprentice shows that your talent is strong enough for Dean Qiu to let go of his scruples!" Zhao Hongtao explained.
"So that's it." Chu Han nodded solemnly.
I didn't expect that my teacher still had such a past.
"Thank you, Teacher Zhao. If you hadn't told me, it would have been difficult for me to know these things."
"This can be considered a reminder to you. Even if you enter Jingwu University, you cannot relax your vigilance." Zhao Hongtao smiled.
"I won't accompany you from now on. You can get used to the environment. If you have any questions, you can contact me through the communication bracelet."
"Thank you, Teacher Zhao."
Chu Han and Zhao Hongtao separated, but they were still thinking about Zhao Hongtao's words.
He couldn't help but worry about the teacher's enemy.
If the news that he has become Qiu Zhan's new disciple is released, it is very likely that it will also attract the pursuit of enemies.
"No matter what, we still need to improve our strength as soon as possible!"
Chu Han made up his mind secretly.
"By the way, you can contact the teacher first."
Chu Han then picked up the communicator and dialed the number of Qiu Zhan.
But after waiting for a long time, Qiu Zhan didn't answer.
Just sent him a message.
It turns out that Qiu Zhan is not in school now, but on a mission in the wilderness and cannot come back for the time being.
And asked him to report to the Body Refining Academy first, where he can redeem Exotic Beast Essence Blood for practicing Beast God Transformation.
At the same time, I hope he can complete the first transformation of Beast God Transformation before he comes back.
"Beast God Transformation's cultivation must be put on the agenda. We cannot let the teacher down."
Chu Han thought in his mind.
He got up and left the dormitory, followed the map navigation on his bracelet, passed through the central square of Jingwu University, and came to the Body Refining Academy.
The students who come and go here are all tall and muscular, and each of them exudes a ferocious aura like a ferocious beast.
"It's really Body Refining Academy. They all look like devils." Chu Han thought to himself.
He could feel that the physical strength of these students was extremely amazing.
Everyone's physique is far superior to that of ordinary warriors of the same level.
As soon as Chu Han arrived at the gate of the Body Refining Academy, he was stopped by the guard at the door.
The guards are two young students who look like iron towers, with extremely fierce aura.
The two of them shouted loudly, "Stop! Who are you? What are you doing here at the Body Refining Academy?"
"My name is Chu Han, and I am a new student reporting to the Body Refining Academy."
Chu Han took out his student ID card and communication bracelet to indicate his identity.
"Chu Han? Your disciple of Dean Qiu?!"
After the two guards saw the information in the Chu Han bracelet, a trace of surprise flashed in their eyes.
"It turns out to be Student Chu, but according to the rules of the college, even the dean's apprentice needs to pass the assessment before he can officially join Body Refining Academy!"
Chu Han frowned slightly when he heard this. The teacher had never told him such a thing.
He still nodded. "Okay, please lead the way, please, two seniors."
The two guards led Chu Han into the Body Refining Academy, and the students they met along the way cast curious glances.
And the news that Chu Han was accepted as a disciple by the dean also spread throughout the Body Refining Academy as if it had wings, and the whole Body Refining Academy instantly exploded.
"What? Qiu Zhan Dean actually accepted a disciple?"
"Did I hear you correctly? Didn't Dean Qiu say that he will not accept apprentices in this life?"
"I heard that this kid is the provincial champion in Martial Arts Grand Examination this year, and his score broke the national record."
"Tch, what's the point of having a high score? Body Refining Academy looks at physical strength! I applied three times, but was ruthlessly rejected by Dean Qiu. Why did this kid become the dean's disciple just after he enrolled?"
"I want to see if he can pass the college's entrance examination!"
More and more students gathered and followed Chu Han.
Among the crowd, many are Body Refining Academy geniuses.
They wanted to become Qiu Zhan's teacher many times, but were rejected.
Now that they see Chu Han easily getting the opportunity they dreamed of, their hearts are full of imbalance, hoping that Chu Han will make a fool of themselves in the assessment.
Such a big event even attracted Zhou Tong, the vice president of the Body Refining Academy.
This is an old man with an aura like a rock. Standing there, he is like a mountain.
As soon as Zhou Tong appeared, the students in the Body Refining Academy became quiet.
The crowd automatically parted to make way for the road.
Zhou Tong came to Chu Han and looked Chu Han up and down.
"Are you Chu Han?"
"It's me."
Chu Han did not dare to neglect, he had already learned the identity of this person from the discussions of the students around him.
"Okay, since you are Dean Qiu's apprentice, you must behave well and don't embarrass your teacher."
Zhou Tong nodded and said nothing more.
He and Qiu Zhan have been friends for decades, so he naturally knows Qiu Zhan's vision.
So now he also wants to see if the potential of Chu Han is worthy of the expectations of Qiu Zhan.
Soon, Chu Han was brought to a huge blue stone monument.
Sitting next to the stone monument was an old man with his eyes closed and concentrating, and his aura had reached the state of Grandmaster.
"Jingwu University Sure enough, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, you can easily meet a strong person in the Grandmaster realm."
Chu Han was once again shocked by Jingwu University's heritage.
"Oh, it seems that this year's newcomers have already enrolled."
The old man opened his eyes and stared at Chu Han for a few seconds.
Then he said, "This is the Trial Secret Realm entrance of the Body Refining Academy. You only need to stand in front and inject Elemental Power into it to enter."
"If you want to officially enter Body Refining Academy, you need to reach at least the tenth step of the ladder. However, as Dean Qiu's apprentice, I hope you can go further." Zhou Tong also said from the side.
"Okay."
Chu Han According to what the old man said, Elemental Power was injected into the stone tablet.
The next moment, the surrounding space changed.
He has arrived in a new space.
At the same time, the message Chu Han also appeared on the stone tablet outside.
Chu Han,18 years old, 3rd Rank mid-stage.
Number of ladder levels: 0.
"3rd Rank mid-stage's cultivation level is not particularly outstanding among the freshmen. He should have other abilities. I don't know how many floors he can climb to."
Zhou Tong looked at Chu Han's message thoughtfully.
"Do you think he can get to the 10th floor?"
"Tenth floor? I think it would be good if he can pass the fifth floor! The difficulty of the ladder to heaven cannot be climbed by someone with a certain level of cultivation."
"That's right, this guy looks well-proportioned and doesn't look like a bodybuilder at all. He will definitely not be able to withstand the pressure of the ladder!"
"I bet he can't pass the eighth floor!"
The students around him also started making noises.
Almost none of these Chu Han seniors think highly of him.
In the Secret Realm, a huge step appeared in front of Chu Han.
The upper level of the stairs reaches straight into the sky, and you can't see the end at a glance.
Each step is made of blue-black boulders, about thirty meters wide and half a meter high.
"Is this the so-called ladder assessment?"
He could feel that different powers were exuding on each step, and it was obviously not that simple.
"You'll know after you try it."
Chu Han stepped up to the first floor.
Suddenly, an invisible pressure hit him instantly, oppressing his body.
This pressure is like the product of the fusion of Grandmaster Pressure and gravity, and has almost no effect on Chu Han.
"1st Rank Martial Artist can withstand the pressure on the first step."
Chu Han continued walking upward until he reached the 10th floor, and then he felt the pressure around him begin to change.
"The pressure at the 10th level is enough to crush ordinary warriors 3rd Rank early-stage, but it is the foundation for the Body Refining Academy to get started."
"Even if this threshold is placed among the freshmen Jingwu University, it is enough to eliminate 70% of them."
Chu Han raised his head and looked above, a trace of expectation flashed in his heart.
"I wonder how many floors I can get to?"
