Chapter 62: The Freshman Ranking Battle
On the 15th day of the first month of the 179th year of the Great Xia calendar. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
On this day of freezing weather and heavy snowfall, the Jersey Tenmu Academy has finally officially opened.
There were 532 bronze emblem students, 54 silver emblem veterans, two gold emblem veterans, and 2,678 Tiehui freshmen who had just been enrolled in the school, a total of 3,266 people, all gathered in a large martial arts arena located in the southern district.
It can be seen from the number of students at all levels that a large number of students will be eliminated every year, and even geniuses from all over the world want to complete the promotion within the time specified by the Tianwu Academy, it is very difficult.
Of course, there are also some old students who have not rushed back today for various reasons, but the number of those old students is very small.
This large-scale martial arts arena, which is circular as a whole, is a magnificent open-air building, and the whole looks like a football stadium in Yi Chen's previous life, but the scale is nearly ten times larger.
The circular building of the entire martial arts arena has a diameter of 300 zhang, and in the middle is a circular martial arts square paved with huge black stone slabs, and the surrounding area of the martial arts square is a circle of stepped stands.
Mo said that the total number of teachers and students in the entire Tianwu Academy was more than 3,000 people, and even if there were more than 30,000 people sitting in it, the stands would still be sparse and not crowded.
All students are seated according to the instructor they follow.
After taking a seat, Yi Chen was looking for Yi Yunshang everywhere, looking for a tea time, only to see Yi Yunsheng, and after looking for a long time, Yi Yunsheng, who was also looking around, saw him, and the eyes of the two intersected again, smiling from afar.
I waited here after breakfast, and waited for nearly an hour before the opening ceremony officially began.
A red carpet with a length of ten zhang and a width of ten zhang flew to the center of the martial arts arena, suspended in mid-air about twenty zhang above the ground.
Without any support, the red carpet can still be steadily suspended in mid-air, slightly undulating, exuding bursts of glow.
Everyone's eyes were attracted by that red carpet, and everyone could see that that red carpet was a magic weapon of no low grade.
When the red carpet stabilized in mid-air, an old man with white hair and white beard and white eyebrows in a white robe stepped into the void, walked step by step to the red carpet, and then stood still.
If you look closely, you will find that on the chest of the white-robed old man, there is also a fist seal badge, but it is not gold, silver, or copper, but purple gold, and the material is unknown.
Judging from the badge, this white-robed old man should be one of the vice presidents of the Jersey Tianwu Academy.
It is said that there is only one dean of each Tianwu Academy, but there are at least two vice presidents.
"Old Zhu Zheng, on behalf of the Jersey Tianwu Academy, welcome the new students to settle down, and also congratulate those old students who have been promoted as they wish."
The white-robed old man had a warm smile on his face, although he was a strong man, he did not show the slightest arrogance, and even when he spoke, he shook his fist at the teachers and students in the surrounding stands.
Under the leadership of the mentors, all the new and old students stood up, and at the same time bowed their hands and bowed towards the red carpet.
The white-robed old man Zhu Zheng pressed his hand at everyone, motioned for everyone to sit down, and then said: "There is such a ceremony every year, in fact, there are many times, and it is not new, it is nothing more than a formality." Lao Yu knows that everyone is more concerned about the freshman ranking battle, in fact, Lao Yu is also very concerned about this, after this ceremony, the freshman ranking battle will be unveiled tomorrow, I hope you freshmen will prepare well and strive to get a good ranking. ”
At this point, the white-robed old man stepped into the void, left the red carpet, and returned to the corner of the stand step by step to sit down.
Next, it was the turn of the mentor representatives, the old student representatives, and the freshman representatives to fly on the red carpet one after another to speak, and Yi Chen didn't know any of these three people, and he didn't have the slightest impression.
Most of the time, Yi Chen looked at Yi Yunshang and smiled.
Yi Chen still likes his cousin very much, after all, Yi Yunshang takes good care of her, and Yi Yunsheng's gentle and stubborn temperament is also appreciated by Yi Chen.
As for how Yi Yunshang sees himself, Yi Chen still has an accurate grasp, I don't know if he really likes him, or just regards him as a brother who is closer and more talkative.
When the freshman representative finished speaking, the chief tutor flew on the red carpet, and he was responsible for introducing some of the freshman ranking battles, and naturally a simple self-introduction was indispensable.
The chief tutor is named Zhang Hongjun, the silver emblem tutor, who was also a student of the Tianwu Academy, and was a student who got the golden emblem, after he graduated, he chose to stay in the Jersey Tianwu Academy, and became the chief tutor who specializes in teaching the new and strong, and has been teaching for more than ten years now.
There are also a lot of silver emblem tutors in the Jersey Tianwu Academy, compared to other silver emblem tutors, Zhang Hongjun is younger, it is not suitable to teach old students, and teaching ordinary freshmen does not match his strength in the martial arts period, so the academy arranged a special job for him as the chief tutor of new students.
As for the freshman ranking battle, there is already a very mature competition system, and there will be no adjustments and changes this year.
The first round is a scuffle.
It is to gather more than 2,000 freshmen together, and then the scuffle, when there are only 100 freshmen left in the venue, the round of melee is over.
The second round is a battle to catch the ring, and the loser is eliminated, leaving only 50 freshmen.
The 50 freshmen who can make it to the third round can all get the essence stone reward, and they can also receive a certain amount of essence stone subsidy on a monthly basis in the future.
In the third round, the ranking battle of the new powerhouses can be regarded as the real beginning, and this round of the point grabbing system.
The so-called point grabbing system is to send all these fifty freshmen to the "Xuanling Realm", looking for the points talismans that were put in them early by the strong people of the academy, and finally ranking according to the number of points of the points talismans when everyone came out, and taking the top ten to enter the fourth round. The reason why it is called the point grabbing system is because everyone can snatch the points in the hands of others to increase their own points.
The fourth round is the point system, that is, all the ten freshmen who enter the fourth round will compete with the other nine freshmen, with three points for each win, one point for a draw, and no points for a loss, and finally the top ten rankings will be determined according to the points.
Each match in the fourth round has a time limit, and if the two sides do not decide the winner within the specified time, it will be considered a draw.
As for the eleventh to the fiftieth place, because the rewards received are the same, they are no longer subdivided.
In the four rounds of the competition, except for the first round, which has restrictions on the use of magic weapons, the other three rounds are none.
In other words, in the three rounds after the first round, everyone can use any magic weapon, and the magic weapon restrictions in the first round only limit the magic weapons of stealth and space.
As for not restricting the quality of the magic weapon, which will lead to the unfairness of the entire competition, the explanation given by the Heavenly Martial Academy is-
First of all, there is nothing fair or unfair in this world.
Secondly, after walking out of the Heavenly Martial Academy, if you fight with a real enemy, can you still let the enemy not use magic weapons, or restrict what magic weapons the enemy can use?
Again, if the strength and cultivation are not enough, if you are given a mysterious weapon or artifact, you will not be able to use it, according to the level of the new students, I am afraid that the strongest person can only use the magic weapon below the high-grade spiritual weapon.
For the three explanations given by the Tianwu Academy, whether everyone agrees with it or not, they can only accept it, and there is no room for negotiation or bargaining.
……
After the chief tutor Zhang Hongjun finished telling the situation of the freshman ranking battle, the so-called opening ceremony was over.
Under the leadership of their respective instructors, all the students left this martial arts arena one after another and walked to the eastern area of the college.
In the eastern area of the academy, there are many open spaces surrounded by a circle of walls, and these places are the places where the instructors teach the martial arts of their disciples and instruct the disciples to practice.
Every mentor has such a clearing surrounded on all sides, and there are many huge iron stones and special blades, and the whole area is also very spacious, no less than 30 zhang in length and width, but the height of the wall is only about 1 zhang.
For such an open space, the academy calls it a "dojo", but in fact, it is a classroom for tutors to teach.
Each dojo is numbered, and the number of the dojo where the chief instructor is located is naturally "Tieyi", also known as "Tieyichang".
Near noon, Yi Chen and other forty freshman powerhouses, under the leadership of the chief tutor, came to the Tieyi Field.
After everyone stood in four rows, Chief Tutor Zhang Hongjun first swept the circle, and then spoke: "Everyone, your coursework will start after the freshman ranking battle, so in addition to the rules and precepts you already know, what we want to focus on today is this freshman ranking battle. ”
The new students, both men and women, stood up straight and listened attentively.
"In the more than ten years that I have been the chief tutor of freshmen, I have only accepted 40 freshmen every year, and almost all of these 40 freshmen have been able to enter the top 50 of the freshman ranking battle, and even often the top 10, with few exceptions. (http://.)。 ”
After a slight pause, Zhang Hongjun said loudly: "I don't want to make any exceptions this year, I hope everyone can enter the top fifty, and I also hope that the top ten are all my disciples, because you are the disciples of the chief master, so you must be stronger than other freshmen." ”
Hearing this, everyone was still calm, because they were confident in their own strength.
"I have made it very clear in the previous ceremony that the format of the freshman ranking battle will be clear, but here I would like to remind you that although you may not know each other yet, let alone familiarity, but when you get to the arena, you must be like brothers and sisters, you must unite as one!"
The chief tutor narrowed his eyes, as if what he was talking about now was the most important thing, and after glancing around, he continued: "According to the past practice, those ordinary freshmen in order to strive for a better ranking, they will definitely besiege the disciples of the chief mentor, that is to say, they will have a tacit understanding, that is, they may not use each other at the beginning, specifically looking for you to fight, if you do not unite as one, facing an enemy dozens of times your size, no matter how strong you are, I am afraid that it will not end well." There was a time when there was a situation that everyone did not expect, and all the disciples under the Chief Mentor were eliminated in the first round......"
Hearing this again, Yi Chen and the others' faces changed slightly.
