Soon, Azure Firmament Academy also ushered in its first student assessment.
After discussions between Deans Hong Ying and Ning Chenxin, as well as the teacher, the assessment was divided into three stages.
The first stage is a ranking competition based on individual arena battles, with the top 50 players forming teams of five.
Teams enter the second stage, where team battles take place on Ancient Battlefield. Players are ranked according to the inheritance they have obtained and earn points. The team with the most points wins, and the top three teams are selected.
This third challenge was Ning Chenxin's idea.
Using an illusion array, the rewards are divided into three levels (3, 6, and 9) and distributed among the three teams. Each team receives one of these three rewards, and each team has five members.
Not only are the rewards unequal, but two people will not receive any rewards at all.
They need to allocate it themselves.
If the illusionary formation amplifies the inner demons, and if this team can be perfectly divided, they will be able to pass the final test and enter the library to study the top-tier Cultivation Method that Lu Changsheng has provided.
Furthermore, Master Hong Ying Ning Chenxin and the other elders will select disciples from among them to become the first batch of direct disciples of the Azure Firmament Academy.
The first stage is now over, and the second stage has begun.
In a grand hall, Mr. Hong Ying Ning Chenxin and a group of elders, including the Divine Lord Hao Tian, gazed at the mirror image before them.
The mirror image provides a panoramic view of the Ancient Battlefield.
"There are so many promising talents." The Divine Lord Hao Tian looked at the mirror image before him with sparkling eyes, stroking his chin with delight. "Ever since the Immortal Realm and the Mortal Realm were completely connected, and Immortal Qi began to flow back into the Mortal Realm, all sorts of geniuses have emerged."
The Dark Lord smiled and nodded, "So, you've chosen someone?"
The Divine Lord Hao Tian laughed loudly, "I've taken a liking to more than just one person. There are several among them who suit my taste and are compatible with my cultivation methods."
Ning Chenxin chuckled softly from the side, "We shouldn't accept the first batch of personal disciples lightly. Let's wait until they pass the third test before making any selections. After all, these first batch of personal disciples are meant to be the vanguard of the Azure Firmament Academy. If their character isn't good, even if we help them become strong, they will ultimately only become a scourge."
Hong Ying nodded. "That's right. The first batch of direct disciples are meant to set an example, and they will also represent the academy in the Six Realms Academy Grand Competition."
The Divine Lord Hao Tian, the Dark Lord, and several other elders nodded seriously.
The gentleman, watching this scene from the side, couldn't help but nod in satisfaction.
It seems the Human Ancestor made the right choice, appointing people like Hong Ying and Ning Chenxin to rebuild Azure Firmament Academy.
If things go as expected, given some time, Azure Firmament Academy might even fall to a state it never reached in its heyday...
Chaos Realm, Chaotic Spirit Academy.
These days, Ye Qiubai Shi Sheng continue to venture into the secret realm, and their ranking continues to climb.
Ye Qiubai has reached ninth place, Sword Dao has become completely stable! His realm has even broken through to the Mid God Emperor Realm.
Shi Sheng's power of the Star Dao Law has improved further, and at the summit of that Star Stone Mountain, his Starry Sky Dantian sensed it... as if it was guiding Shi Sheng to climb to the top.
If my guess is correct, there might be a Star Core above.
Although Mu Fusheng remained in the Lightning Storm Sea for a long time, he still did not make it onto the list.
However, Mu Fusheng also told Ye Qiubai and the others that he was using the Power of Origin in the Raging Lightning Sea to condense the seventh Ancient Divine Lightning power of the Nine-Nine Primordial Chaos Divine Lightning Art!
Xiao Hei mingles in Cloudsoaring Platform, earning points through sparring while constantly tempering his physical body through battles.
In recent days, apart from those with higher cultivation levels than Xiao Hei, the people in Cloudsoaring Platform have been genuinely afraid of encountering Xiao Hei.
That kind of reckless, injury-for-injury fighting style is too troublesome.
Fang Qiong then went to the Fifth Elder to exchange ideas on array Array Dao.
Although he did not become the Fifth Elder's disciple, the Fifth Elder did not seem to care and imparted all his knowledge of Array Dao to him.
An elder asked the Fifth Elder why he did this.
The Fifth Elder then uttered something shocking.
It wasn't me imparting knowledge, but rather an exchange between us. Fang Qiong's understanding of Fang Qiong Array Dao often enlightened me.
After all, Fang Qiong's foundation in Array Dao came from Lu Changsheng and the Holy Array Heavenly Scroll.
However, this seemingly peaceful period was soon disrupted.
He Xiangwang stepped into the next level of the Heaven Refining Tower, which was the ninetieth level!
This caused quite a stir within the Chaotic Spirit Academy.
What does the 90th floor mean?
From the eighty-ninth floor onwards, the Power of the Flame Origin in the tower surged unprecedentedly, with the ninetieth floor being several times more concentrated than the previous eighty-nine floors combined!
At the same time, He Xiangwang also broke through to the Early Ancestor Realm!
The moment He Xiangwang emerged from seclusion, he immediately issued a challenge to Xiao Hei.
The crowd gasped in disbelief.
It seems that He Xiangwang intends to stand up for the Second Elder.
However, it is certainly an example of the Ancestor Realm being bullied by the Late Stage of the God Emperor Realm cultivator.
He Xiangwang also indicated that Xiao Hei would decide the time, place, and even the level of their sparring.
Xiao Hei frowned slightly upon seeing the challenge letter.
With his current strength, defeating Ancestor Realm expert would still be somewhat difficult, even if the opponent had only just entered the Ancestor Realm.
However, just as everyone was anticipating Xiao Hei's response.
Another message came from Inner Tower.
The content is as follows.
The Crown Prince of the Nine Dragons Divine Dynasty... also known as the Ninth Prince, sent a mission request to the Chaotic Spirit Academy.
Within the Divine Dynasty, the Third Prince, the Fifth Prince, and the First Prince officially launched an attack on the Crown Prince.
The Ninth Prince had only recently become the Crown Prince, and his power base was still shallow and unstable.
The Emperor of the Divine Dynasty also ignored the matter, perhaps wanting the Crown Prince to be tempered in this situation.
After all, the emperor was never afraid of his sons competing; what he feared was the lack of competition.
Without competition, there is no growth, and therefore no progress.
He couldn't have taken his position without experiencing bloodshed and turmoil.
Therefore, the Crown Prince sought help from the Chaotic Spirit Academy and specifically requested Mu Fusheng, Xiao Hei, and others to assist him.
They said they only trust them.
The message from Inner Tower was also asking Xiao Hei and the others whether they agreed to accept it.
This incident also led Ye Qiubai and the others to leave the secret realm and gather at the Heaven Character Courtyard No. 1.
"Let's go. It'll be a good opportunity to temporarily avoid He Xiangwang's challenge. Once we break through a bit more in our cultivation, He Xiangwang won't be a threat anymore," Ye Qiubai suggested.
Fang Qiong and Shi Sheng nodded as well.
Mu Fusheng frowned as he looked at the mission scroll; his name was listed first.
I have a feeling that the Ninth Prince is after him...
Ye Qiubai looked at Mu Fusheng and asked, " Junior Brother Mu, what do you say?"
Mu Fusheng thought for a moment, then finally nodded and said, "Let's go then."
If they really came for him, Mu Fusheng was quite curious about their motives.
Anyway, they should have prepared plenty of cards to play...
