September 1st, a special day.

For others, it's just the first day of the month and nothing special.

But for Taoism, for all believers in Taoism, this is a big day of great significance.

Because September 1st is the opening day of the first Taoist college "Huaqing"!

Huaqing Academy, covering an area the size of a first-class town, is located on the right side of Qingshi Town, at the foot of the Keelung Mountains, and the Xuandao Cathedral is far away.

However, Huaqing is more of a brand new town than an academy.

Study area, leisure area, business area, living area......

Huaqing College was planned and designed by Rhodes himself after he ascended the throne and became the Pope, and Rhodes divided the various areas of Huaqing College into roughly reference to the university towns on the earth, and of course made corresponding changes based on the reality of the Oude continent, such as some unnecessary traffic roads were replaced by Rhodes with small teleportation circles and the like.

Of course, in addition to Huaqing College, Taoism has free compulsory education colleges all over the empire, which is a good deed that benefits all people.

After the establishment of Huaqing Academy, Taoism carried out a flood of propaganda throughout the Oakland Empire, calling on believers to send their children to Huaqing Academy for further study.

Not only Taoism itself carried out propaganda, but His Majesty Wen Sa, the Emperor of the Oakland Empire, was also the governor of the various provinces and towns of the empire, cooperating with Taoism in propaganda.

In fact, there is no need for publicity, in fact, during the period of the construction of Huaqing Academy, all kinds of rumors about Huaqing Academy have spread crazy throughout the empire, and the four words of Huaqing Academy have almost become the four words in the mouth of the people of the empire.

When Taoism officially announced the start of enrollment at Huaqing College at the end of June, the entire Auckland Empire was once again detonated, and there were countless people who flocked to sign up, and vehicles from all major provinces to Qingshi Town blocked the major traffic arteries almost every day.

You must know that this Huaqing Academy is not an ordinary academy, it is an academy personally organized by the Imperial State Religion Taoism, and if you can enter it to study, the future must be bright, and this truth is very clear even if you are a fool in the empire.

Just like the so-called key middle schools on the earth, which one doesn't want to squeeze his head in, after all, if he can enter Huaqing College, he will almost win at the starting line.

In just over a month, the number of applicants has reached tens of millions, and if it weren't for the age restrictions, the number of applicants would have been even higher.

Of course, Huaqing College is definitely not a refusal to come, but to select potential talents for training, that is, the so-called flowers of the motherland.

In the first batch of enrollment plans, Huaqing University plans to enroll 10,000 people, four-year schooling, gender is not limited, and the age is between 12 and 16 years old.

Huaqing College is headed by Rhodes as the president, and it is divided into three colleges: civil, military and law.

Literature naturally refers to the study of various astronomy, geography and literature, mainly to train Taoist priests and nuns and some talents in life, and plans to enroll 4,000 people.

The dean of the Faculty of Letters is served by Yi Ze, and after the affairs of the Sea Clan gradually got on the right track some time ago, Rhodes completely handed over the corresponding affairs to the patriarch of the mermaid clan, who is also the holder of the Sea Emperor's holy clothes, and Ize naturally returned to Taoism.

Although Izawa's strength has gradually been surpassed by some rising stars over the years, Izawa's lofty status in Taoism is unquestionable, and his understanding of Taoist doctrine is also extremely deep, and his ability to fool, oh no, is the ability to preach is only below Rhodes.

Therefore, it was only fitting that Izawa was at the helm of the Faculty of Letters, and as a devout believer of Rhodes, he naturally followed Rhodes' will and became the dean of the Faculty of Letters.

The requirements for qualifications in the Faculty of Liberal Arts are not too high, so the Faculty of Liberal Arts has the largest number of applicants, and the competition is extremely fierce, of course, most of the applicants for the Faculty of Liberal Arts are ordinary people in the Empire.

Wu refers to the cultivation of fighting spirit, of course, it will also teach some knowledge of literature, mainly used to cultivate the talents of the Taoist guardianship, and it is also the preparatory talent of the backbone of Taoism such as saint warriors and paladins, of course, it also provides some middle and lower-level officer talents for the empire, and plans to enroll 3,000 people.

The academy of the martial arts academy is naturally held by Arudiba, which is impeccable in terms of strength and prestige.

The registration of the Martial Arts Academy is also extremely hot, in addition to the people of the empire and the major forces who came to sign up independently, the empire has also sent some talented talents in the reserve army to it, and the competition is also quite fierce.

The law refers to the cultivation of magic, and will also learn some literary knowledge, mainly to cultivate some priests and battle mages in Taoism, and also to send a certain number of talents to the empire, planning to enroll 3,000 people.

The dean of the law college is served by Jelf, although Jelf is still young, but there are young and promising bigwigs such as the Pope, which is naturally not a problem, so when Rod proposed that Jelf be the dean of the law college, it was also expected by everyone, and no one had ambiguity.

Because magicians attach importance to talent, even if there are many people who want to learn, the difficulty is extremely high, so the number of people who sign up for the law academy is the smallest, of course, there are at least millions of people, competing for three thousand places, the difficulty is not lower than that of the liberal arts academy and the martial arts academy.

After more than half a month of careful selection, 10,000 students of Huaqing College, who were envied by countless people, were finally born, all of whom were the elite of the elite and the genius of the genius.

Of course, among these students, there will inevitably be some candidates who have already been determined because of their interests, which is impossible to completely eliminate, but most of the candidates are also extremely outstanding talents, otherwise the forces behind them will not spend a lot of effort to send them to Huaqing Academy.

These 10,000 people may not all stay in Taoism, but at least eighty percent of them will become Taoist talents after graduation, and they represent the future of Taoism, so the entire Taoism attaches great importance to it.

Time flies, and the first of September has arrived......
