"Hey! Why do you have to pay a hundred taels of black iron soul crystals! Do I have to pay for registration? A baby's voice drew a sideways glance and gave the registration guard a headache.

"How could the teleportation scroll sent to you be bought by a hundred taels of black iron soul crystals? Isn't the teleportation scroll on the market expensive and rushing to buy it? Our academy can take out tens of thousands of teleportation scrolls at one time and give them away for free, do you think we will ask you for a mere hundred taels of black iron soul crystals? Later, you will team up to open the teleportation circle and enter the warped forest, which requires a lot of energy to activate, and these soul crystals are used to open the teleportation array. ”

An apprentice in a magic robe came over and explained. He had a headache, how could he be assigned to a low rank to open the magic array! can get an invitation to participate in the competition, but even a hundred taels of black iron soul crystals are not careful. Sure enough, they are all from some shabby small families.

"Annie, give them the soul crystals." Yang Lingyun interrupted Anne's teeth and claws.

Anne reluctantly took out a small piece of gold-level soul crystal from her pocket and gave it to the other party.

"This golden soul crystal is more than one or two, equivalent to more than a thousand taels of black iron soul crystals. Remember to give me the difference. Anne's calculating appearance caused the guard in charge of registration to shake his head.

"I'm sorry, but we're not responsible for change here. Please also bring your own one hundred taels of black iron soul crystals or high-grade soul crystals worth one hundred taels of black iron soul crystals. The magic apprentice explained helplessly.

"You just received so many black iron soul crystals, why can't you give change? You are bullying, and I will sue the dean of your academy, Kieran. Anne yelled angrily, eliciting whispers from the other applicants around her.

"Is there anything wrong with this sign-up?" A mellow voice came through the loud crowd.

"Elder!" The guards bowed and saluted.

When the "master" magic apprentice saw that the person who came was Tariq, who was the same elder but did not hold a position, he immediately explained the situation with the disciple salute.

"It turned out to be Miss Anne. Lingyun, didn't the dean explain the exam process to you? Tariq smiled and nodded to Anne, then turned his head and asked Yang Lingyun with a smile.

"The teacher may have been too busy, and I didn't ask. Since these are the rules of the academy, we naturally have to follow them. Anne gave them the crystals, and we took the numbered badges and rested for a while, and then waited for the entrance. Yang Lingyun respectfully saluted Tariq. This new diamond-level powerhouse has always been kind to them, and he always feels a sense of closeness.

"That seems to be an oversight on the part of our academy. This twisted forest stretches for thousands of miles, and is located on the northeast edge of the sea. It was occupied by our War College a hundred years ago, and the whole academy set up a magic circle to seal the mountain. If there is no academy to open, even a transcendent master supreme-level powerhouse will not be able to enter in a moment and a half. Each person teleported required one hundred taels of Black Iron Soul Crystals as energy guidance. The soul crystals you gave were all put into the array on the side, where is the change?

However, you gave nearly 1,000 taels of black iron soul crystals, and you can bring eight more people as support. The academy does not require candidates to bring foreign aid for the exam, but it cannot exceed the highest level of the participating rank. If you bring foreign aid from the gold rank, then you have to go to the gold field to form a team, and the soul crystal you pay is one thousand taels of black iron soul crystals. The maximum number of auxiliary personnel shall not exceed 100. Because the teleportation array can only teleport 100 people into it at a time. ”

Tariq explained the process of the game to Yang Lingyun and the others, attracting the people around them to look at them with envy. can be personally introduced by the elders of the academy, since these two people have such a relationship, why should they compete with them for places at the bottom of the hierarchy? It seems that you must not team up with these two. However, some self-proclaimed silver-level masters looked at the strength of Yang Lingyun's bronze rank, and suddenly had the idea of forming a team to hug their thighs. If you can give the other party a good impression, maybe the next exam will be much easier, even if you get some inside information.

"Then someone with a hundred people to assist, wouldn't they be able to advance to the second round of the exam casually? Isn't that fair? What if someone cheats and prepares the soul crystal in advance? Anne was most desperate to see what had to happen fairly, and immediately protested against the unreasonable rules of the college.

"Hehe, if he is willing to spend ten thousand taels of black iron soul crystals, we have no objection. However, if we want to take advantage of this loophole, we can directly disqualify him from the exam. The soul beasts in the Warped Forest are different from the soul beasts in other places, and the additional bonus attributes and soul power imprints attached to the soul crystals on their bodies are only available to us in the Warped Forest. What's more, at least a hundred soul beasts must be hunted in three days, ranking according to the rank and weight of the soul crystals of the last soul beasts. It does not mean that the top 10 out of 100 people will definitely be able to advance, but it will be eligible to participate in the competition. The top 10 of all 100-person groups in a competition area will be ranked according to the soul crystals they hunt, and finally the top 100 will advance to the next round of exams. ”

The terrifying diamond-level powerhouse soul power on Tariq's body flashed away, and he explained with a glance at the people around him who had their own thoughts.

"Then the two of us, where is the speed at which a hundred others team up to hunt soul beasts. Aren't we at a loss? Anne looked annoyed, she knew that this was the process of the game, and she would have to find some people to help, even if she paid some more soul crystals.

"This is also an aspect of testing the candidates' connections and abilities, and I can only say that I can't help it. However, I believe that Yang Lingyun's strength, with him, is not weaker than a hundred silver-level masters. Tariq's high opinion of Yang Lingyun amazed everyone around. The scattered teams that were still waiting and watching all leaned over.

"Brother, there are five of us on this team, all of them are tank fighters, and it is absolutely fine to protect you. Team up together, and the soul crystals will be given to you first. What do you think? A tall, brawny man with broad pectorals walked up and said.

"Little brother, I'm a full mage, with high power output, and the speed of monster farming is absolutely first-class. Team up with us and keep it smooth to enter the top 100 in the competition area. I saw a male mage wearing a flame robe throwing an olive branch to Yang Lingyun and the others.

Tariq looked at this scene with a smile, just smiled at Yang Lingyun and then left indifferently.

"Thank you, Master." How could Yang Lingyun not know that Tariq did this on purpose, in order to let Yang Lingyun accept his favor. But he was moved in his heart, and he saluted Tariq's distant back gratefully.

"Haha, let's talk about it first, the soul crystal pays for itself. Get in line, don't crowd. I'll take a look at your equipment first, and the higher level of equipment will be preferred. Anne looked like a black-hearted bag foreman and went into the crowd to pick up coolies.

"We don't want soul crystals, and we don't want soul beast soul crystals that we hunt after entering the twisted forest. Just accept us as retinues. "Three more people came over and asked to form a team.

Yang Lingyun smiled bitterly and shook his head, I really don't know why these people would surrender their identities so much, and they actually begged to be someone else's entourage. How can a person who can come here to take the entrance exam and pay a hundred taels of black iron soul crystals be ordinary people? At least they are all masters of the bronze close to the silver rank. If it weren't for Yang Lingyun's promotion to the bronze rank in the end, I'm afraid he would be an unprecedented candidate with the lowest rank.

"Don't you know that becoming an elder disciple gives you the privilege of having ten retinues?" The magic apprentice in charge of the area circle on the side leaned over and whispered.

"Huh? There are also people rushing to be in the entourage? Yang Lingyun looked at each other with a stunned expression. I knew that I was the same as Xiaobai, so I shouldn't have stayed in my room all the time these days, even if I went out for a walk and asked about the situation. It's really Yang Lingyun who is too big, thinking that the exam is not difficult, and he doesn't take the exam of the War College too seriously. Anne had completely recovered from her serious injuries and had been staying in her room to recuperate.

"The War College is divided into two schools: the inner and outer colleges. Enrollment is held once every ten years, and only candidates who pass the triple exam each time can become inner court disciples, and the top three in the exam can become elder disciples. Not only can the elder disciples obtain a large amount of resources and privileges from the academy than the inner court disciples, but they can also mobilize hundreds of gold-level guards to fight, and they can enter the twisted forest to cultivate at will. The outer court disciples are the top 10 percent of the candidates who were brushed off in the first exam. Although he is a disciple of the outer court, in addition to receiving a small amount of resources from the War Academy for free every month, he can also enter the Warped Forest to cultivate once a month. Although it is said to be a small amount of resources, it is not something that ordinary small families can imagine. ”

The magic apprentice explained with a flattering expression. He knew that this person who didn't look very good at strength, but he could definitely become an elder disciple in the inner courtyard. You must know that Master Tariq never lies, and for so many years, I have never seen anyone receive such a high evaluation from Master Tariq. A bronze fifth-rank can beat a hundred silver-rank masters, even if they are all silver fifth-rank, it is very terrifying.

"And what does this have to do with being an entourage?" Yang Lingyun was still puzzled, could it be that he could also obtain any privileges as an entourage of an elder disciple?

"Although the retinue of the elder disciples is not counted as the disciples of the inner and outer courts, they enjoy the rights of the disciples of the outer courts. It is equivalent to a disciple of the outer court. The most important thing is to be able to be by the side of the elders and disciples at all times. Even as long as the elder disciple allows and pays to open the soul crystal that enters the twisted forest, he can enter the outer edge of the twisted forest with the elder disciple to cultivate, and there is no limit to the number of times. ”

The magic apprentice said with some envy. Although he is an apprentice of the academy's magician, his treatment is better than that of the disciples of the outer courtyard. Only by obtaining the honor of a magician and the strength of the golden rank can you enjoy the treatment of a disciple of the inner court. And the treatment of an elder disciple can only be achieved by becoming a magician or platinum rank strength. At present, only Brand Brand, a disciple of the rune mage Ruiz, who is one of the elders, has it. However, thinking of Brand's current situation, the magic apprentice shook his head and sighed.

"I see. Is there such a temptation to enter the Twisted Forest? Can you cultivate in it? ”

Yang Lingyun thought to himself that after he passed the exam, he would not only become an elder disciple, but also a dean's disciple. I wonder if I have a greater privilege? Hehe, let's keep a low profile. However, this warped forest seems to be very attractive to these people, even knowing that most people can't enter the academy to become disciples. It also costs a lot to participate, not only because of the fame and resources of the War College, but also because it may be related to this huge mysterious forest.

"Well, you'll be able to appreciate the benefits of the Twisted Forest when you enter. Don't rush out during these three days, it will be of great benefit to you to stay in it for three days. Of course, you must not go to the depths of the forest, the closer you get to the center of the forest, the higher the level of the soul beast. If you encounter danger, open the scroll to save your life. The magic apprentice patiently explained and reminded Yang Lingyun of precautions.

"Thank you so much. My name is Yang Lingyun, and if I am lucky enough to become a disciple of the academy, I will come to thank you. Yang Lingyun knew that the other party had explained so much, it must have been for the sake of Master Tariq to take care of him. However, he was willing to get closer to this person, after all, there were not many magicians in the academy, and those who could become magic apprentices were all exceptional.

"Coincidentally, we're still home. My name is Yang Junkai. Silver section, first-class magic apprentice. Yang Junkai didn't dare to hold it up, and hurriedly replied.
