Chapter 249: Imperial Martial Test
Huge steel rollers crushed the road surface in the city, pressing out wheel marks more than three feet thick. Some roads are paved with bluestone slabs, and when the Yuanli chariot runs over, the sound of the slate cracking can be clearly heard. The dirt on both sides of the road was even directly squeezed up.
Occasionally, when encountering a large undulating road, the entire Yuanli chariot will tremble violently, and the weight of the chariot is too large, and the ground will be shaken continuously during the trembling process.
The fifth Tingyun stood at the railing on the second floor, and was so shaken that he almost fell off the upper floor.
"This chariot must be conservatively estimated to weigh tens of thousands of kilograms, right?" There were also some people in the next floor who almost suffered a loss, and after stabilizing their bodies, they discussed it one by one.
"With this head, you can knock the city wall down by hitting it directly. ”
"If you just run over the city like this, none of the buildings in the city will be able to withstand it, right?"
"No wonder the empire has to spend a huge amount of money to research and forge the Yuanli chariot, it is unimaginable, if nearly a hundred chariots are lined up, how magnificent it should be?
"It is said that the metal used to forge the chariots is made of metal equipment forged by technicians, and it is more than ten times harder than ordinary metal. Even if he is a powerhouse in the Yudan Realm, with all his palm, he can only leave a shallow palm print on this material, and its hardness can be seen. ”
"Really? Don't brag. ”
The discussion quickly attracted people around him, many of whom were skeptical of these claims. After all, today, when the Dao of Science and Technology has just sprouted, many things that could only be solved by the Elemental Dao or the Martial Dao are not real if they are solved by the Dao of Science and Technology.
What's more, the results of the development of science and technology have not yet spread to remote cities.
In the midst of the noisy talk, under the eyes of countless people, the huge Yuanli chariot slowly drove towards the Nanshu Academy in the center of the city. Most of the buildings in the city are not very tall, so the Yuanli chariot with its huge body is particularly eye-catching when it travels.
Moreover, the streets in the city are all designed according to the old horse-drawn carriage plan of the past, and it is enough for three horse-drawn carriages to be able to run parallel streets. But the chariot was not only so tall that it seemed to be so wide that it could not pass through some of the narrower streets.
In desperation, the chariot had no choice but to choose the streets around the city and slowly move towards Nanshu Academy. The Ring Street is the widest road in the city, connecting the city center with the inner edge of the city walls.
The huge metal wings flapped from time to time, like a giant steel bird.
It wasn't until nightfall that the Yuanli chariot finally stopped outside the gate of Nanshu Academy. At this moment, there were only a lot of onlookers, especially the teaching building of the college, where every floor was crowded with people, looking down at rare things.
Rumble!
There was a loud bang.
The four wheels seemed to be locked by a force, and the entire Yuanli chariot stopped.
Then there was a rustling sound on the body of the car, and suddenly two metal cylinders poked out from under the metal wings, and the columns glowed throughout, and it was impossible to see what they were. The light illuminated the surroundings, and then there was a recess in the body of the car, and a folding staircase protruded from the recess.
After the stairs were lowered to the ground, a group of cultivators dressed in the formal attire of the school came out of the recess. The academy teachers who had been waiting here for a long time greeted them, and after a brief handover of personnel from the two sides, some of the academy cultivators returned to the chariot, and after a while, two teams of thirty academy cultivators walked out of it.
After the cultivators got out of the chariot, the folding staircase retracted, and the recessed part began to backfill, and soon returned to its original state.
The teacher and the cultivator entered the academy together, and at the same time, the metal wings of the chariot shrank and changed, and in a moment the effort returned to the original state of iron ingots. The pillars of light under the wings also retracted into the body of the car, and after the light source disappeared, the people gathered around slowly dispersed.
......
......
Early the next morning, the fifth Tingyun slept until the sun rose, and after washing, he went directly to the playground of Nanshu College. Today is the first day of the unification of the national martial arts examination, as long as the time comes, all test centers will be open at the same time, at that time, tens of millions of students across the country will show their strength at the same time, fair competition.
Although he got up later than usual, when he arrived at the playground, it was still not the time for the martial arts test.
Nearly two hundred people stood on the periphery of the playground, quietly waiting. These two hundred or so people are all the students who applied for volunteers this year from Xiaoxiang College, Suzhou and Hangzhou College and Jiaqing College.
The martial arts test of the entrance examination will last for nearly a month.
The first seven days are the first round of screening for each county, and in seven days, each county needs to rank the applicants of each higher education institution, and then select the students who are eligible to enter the second round of screening according to the admission ratio of each higher education.
The second round of screening is the unified test of Yuzhong County.
Students who enter the second round of screening need to rush to Yuzhong County within the specified time. On the tenth day after the start of the martial arts test, the entrance examination will officially enter the second round. From the 10th to the 20th day, Yuzhong County will open all the examination centers of colleges and universities, and just like the first round of screening, different students need to go to the examination center of their own college to take the martial arts test.
After the second round of screening, the Faculty will publish the student rankings of each university.
In fact, by the second round of screening, the admission status of each college has been clear. For most of the students, their journey to the entrance examination is over, and in the next third round, most of the students can attend the martial arts examination as spectators.
The third round of the martial arts test is the championship round.
The championship round, as the name suggests, is a round of competition for champions, top eyes and flowers.
The first place in admission from all colleges is eligible to participate in the championship round. For the top 100 institutions of higher learning in the empire, the top seven admitted are eligible, while for the top 10 universities in the empire, the number of eligible places is relaxed to 20.
The championship round lasted seven days and was based on a single-player, single-game elimination system.
At the end of the seven-day championship round, not only have all the admissions been confirmed, but also the provincial champions, top eyes and tanhua have also been decided. The 30 days before and after are the complete process of the entire entrance examination.
......
......
Clang!
The bell sounded.
The hour has come.
The fifth Tingyun merged into the crowd and came to the test center of Jiaqing College first. After standing in line for a while, he came to the front, directly reported his name and current strength, and then put his hand on the Yuan Stone, and when the Yuan Stone glowed, he withdrew his hand.
The Yuan Measuring Stone can test the Yuan Force of cultivators under the Jiedan Realm, which can roughly reflect the strength level of cultivators.
Maybe the teacher in charge of the recording had already heard about it, so when the fifth Tingyun reported the "Five Heavens of Nayuan Realm", the teacher just glanced at the fifth Tingyun twice, and then completed the record very calmly.
After reporting for the test center of Jiaqing College, he came to the test center of Xiaoxiang College, there were only four people here, but he did not delay any time. It's just that the four people who also reported to Xiaoxiang Academy all showed frustrated expressions when they heard the fifth Tingyun report their strength level.
The situation at the test center of Suzhou and Hangzhou College is similar.
He has completed the first step of the first round of screening, and then he is waiting for the school department to rank the first time according to the strength level of each student. After the ranking comes out, it will enter the second step, and those who are unwilling to their own ranking can challenge and adjust the ranking of the students with the results of the challenge, which is also the highlight of the first round of the martial arts test.
