"So that's how it was."
Xu Yuan chuckled under his breath.
For Han Chaoshen to step forward publicly at an event like this and back Lu Chenzhou, Xu Yuan finally understood why Han had made things difficult for him and Xiao Bing back then.
It wasn't just the relationship between the Nine Luminaries and Lu Chenzhou. Han and Lu Chenzhou were close friends.
For the examinees, this was another important development.
Getting into a university like the Nine Luminaries or Luofu would certainly bring honor to their families.
But there was a world of difference between being an ordinary student, having a teacher personally take you on as a Named Disciple, and catching the eye of a Great Cultivator who would keep you close for focused training as a Priority Student—a True Disciple.
The gulf between them was as vast as Heaven and the abyss.
Now that Han Chaoshen had made his position clear, anyone who went over would truly be choosing a side.
Make a strong impression on Han Chaoshen, and he might even introduce you to the elders of the Nine Luminaries!
How could the examinees not be tempted?
Their futures and their Fate were at stake!
Lu Chenzhou raised both hands and shouted:
"Everyone coming with me to fight the enemy at Drum Tower Street Subway Station, gather here!"
Most of the students surged toward him.
Even among the examinees who had chosen Free Activity yesterday, nearly all went to gather around Lu Chenzhou.
Han Chaoshen spoke again.
"During this test, teachers and students from the Nine Luminaries will also enter the field and fight alongside you. We'll score you on the spot!"
"Rest assured, our selection process has always been fair!"
"If you have talent, the doors of the Nine Luminaries are always open to you!"
