Tiger Chasing Dynasty, Chongtian City, Chengtian Academy.
The path of cultivation held countless great Daos.
Cultivators of every school had places they yearned for.
Cultivators who practiced Five Elements Sorcery wished to enter the Myriad Transformation Sect and seek a master to pursue the Dao.
Cultivators who tempered their bodies longed to enter the Dynasty Martial Academy for further study.
And cultivators who practiced the Wind and Thunder Arts naturally most wished to go to Daoyuan Mountain.
Thus, when it came to the sacred ground for Confucian cultivators within the Tiger Chasing Realm, none could compare to Chengtian Academy.
Those able to enter this place to cultivate generally fell into three categories.
The first was the most common and numerous: students admitted through examinations and selection.
Every year, Chengtian Academy recruited students much like the imperial examinations, and after the tests, it would release a Gold Ranking.
Those whose names were inscribed upon the Gold Ranking could enter the academy to cultivate themselves and practice the Dao.
The second category consisted of students who received recommendations and enrolled directly.
Great clans such as the Feng Family held recommendation quotas, allowing them to send their younger generation into the academy for further study.
There were not many such students, accounting for less than one-tenth of the total.
The third category was even rarer: students granted special approval to enter the academy.
They were students directly assigned to the academy by the Dynasty, and generally possessed highly unusual identities.
However, when it came to teaching and expounding the Dao, the academy treated all such students equally. It would never favor one over another due to differences in family background or origin.
Its ability to remain impartial was largely because it had an Academy Head at Spiritual Connection Perfection.
