Chapter 1 Martial Arts Academy Assessment
Qingming Wuyuan is located in Qinghe Mansion City, on the bank of Luoyun Mountain.
On the day of the assessment.
At the foot of Luoyun Mountain, it is already bustling and crowded.
The young talents of Qinghe and Guming counties gathered together.
"Last year, I was only one step away from entering the Martial Academy, and this year I must join the Martial Academy!"
"The Martial Academy is just the first step on my martial arts path, I must enter!"
Those who can be recommended by the martial arts hall are all geniuses from all over the world, and they are all extremely confident in themselves.
Chen Fan said goodbye to his master early in the morning with his senior brother Zhang Fan, as well as the ten genius brothers of the Baiyun Dao Hall, and came to the foot of Luoyun Mountain, before the Martial Academy.
Looking at the surrounding situation, it is also an eye-opener.
Chen Fan couldn't help but say: "There must be thousands of people participating in the assessment, right?" There are really a lot of martial geniuses in our Qinghe County! ”
Zhang Fan nodded:
"Not only Qinghe County, but also Guming County next door, the martial arts halls, sects and major families in the two counties will recommend disciples to participate in the assessment, and at least tens of thousands of people participate in the assessment every year, which is still because of the small sect with fewer places."
Chen Fan nodded suddenly.
There are the most martial artists in their early twenties, and there are many who are fifteen or sixteen years old, seventeen or eighteen years old.
Suddenly, there was an uproar from the crowd.
But in the distance, four red giant tigers with one foot high came pulling a bronze chariot.
"Red Tiger Ring, this is the royal guard of honor!"
Each of these four red tigers was larger and more powerful than the fourfold tiger demon that Chen Fan had punched and killed.
Red Tiger was surrounded by armor guards, following the chariot and escorting the chariot to the main gate of the martial arts courtyard.
The red tiger chariot crossed the flow of people, and the people around it automatically got out of the way.
Although these four tigers have fangs and claws, they are unusually honest.
Chen Fan looked at Chihu, and couldn't help but look sideways slightly, and looked at it a few more times.
"This should be the prince who watched the ceremony, but I don't know how he came to such a remote place in Qinghe County......"
Qinghe County is in the west of Daqian, but the imperial capital is biased to the east, and there are at least seven or eight counties separated by each other.
The gate of the martial arts courtyard opened, and someone greeted the red tiger chariot into it, and then closed it again.
Chen Fan retracted his gaze, but felt itchy in his heart.
……
Chen Fan waited for half an hour.
The gate of the martial academy was finally opened, and many disciples held the qualification certificates for this assessment, lined up in a long line, and entered it in turn.
In the Martial Academy, on top of the tallest building, the vice presidents and deans of the Martial Academy all gathered together, looking down at the dense figures below.
One of the young men, in his early thirties, was wearing a golden feather coat with a four-clawed golden dragon coiled on it, he looked down at this lively scene indifferently, and said: "Qing and Ming counties are really talented, there are many geniuses, and the assessment of the martial arts academy has attracted such elite talents...... Sure enough, it's a place for outstanding people! ”
Mao Wangchen, the dean of the Martial Academy, smiled slightly: "His Highness the Nineteenth has praised it falsely, this is all meritorious under the rule of the Holy Lord, the people live in peace and prosperity, and there are naturally many martial artists!" ”
In the face of this prince, the dean of the martial arts academy talked and laughed freely, without the slightest whisper, which is also the capital brought by his strength.
To be the dean of the martial arts academy, at least you have to be the strength of the martial arts.
And there are dozens or hundreds of sons of the Son of Heaven, even if they have the Dragon Qi of the Son of Heaven in their bodies, there are few who have reached the realm of the Sevenfold Grandmaster of the Martial Dao.
The nineteenth prince is sturdy, and he should also be a martial arts practitioner, he shook his head and said: "Dean Mao is modest, among the martial arts institutes in the world, the Qingming Martial Arts Academy is also the number one in the row!" ”
But isn't it, the Qingming Martial Arts Academy is a total of two counties, and there are many students, so it is naturally strong.
Although the geographical location is remote, it can barely rank in the top ten in the world's martial arts.
Listening to the unnutritious praise of several people, Ye Wuji stood in the crowd, his eyebrows raised slightly, his eyes followed the many disciples who participated in the assessment, silently looking for Chen Fan's location.
It's a pity that there are dense figures, even if he is a master of the Grandmaster, it is impossible to see Chen Fan's position from such a distance.
……
The entrance assessment of the martial arts academy is divided into three levels.
The first level is the simplest and most basic force measurement level.
Zhang Fan approached Chen Fan and whispered:
"Don't underestimate this test, at least more than half of them can't meet the standards, they are directly screened down, and they are not eligible to participate in the next level of assessment."
Chen Fan was also surprised.
This round is actually a test of hard power.
Either you have enough cultivation, or you have strong blood first, if you can't meet the requirements, you will naturally not be able to pass the test.
However, the reason why so many people have been eliminated, most of them are still disciples from small counties, this level is only the preliminary screening level, and most of the elite core disciples of the Baiyun Dao Hall can pass it.
At the beginning of the assessment, the empty outer courtyard of the martial arts academy was divided into twenty or thirty test centers.
Chen Fan and several senior brothers were next to each other in the assessment order, and they lined up to enter a wide testing hall.
In front of everyone, there was a huge gray-brown wall.
A middle-aged instructor in a gray coat stood in front of everyone.
"In the first round of assessment, you can choose any weapon we provide, use your maximum strength to slash against the wall, no martial arts are allowed, and the score will be judged according to the depth of the dent left, and everyone will have two chances!"
"The final results this time are also linked to your respective ages, and there are four types, A, B, C, C, D, and C, so it's okay to say."
Although the martial arts academy is the key to the division of resources by strength, the entry assessment also depends on the age of each person.
The first round of assessment turned out to be a wall......
This wall is obviously not a stone wall of ordinary material, it should be made of a special alloy, otherwise it will be difficult to support the assessment of so many people.
Chen Fan originally thought that the Martial Academy would have some special force measuring instruments, but he didn't expect it to be judged by this method.
Chen Fan heard someone around him: "This wall is made of special material, and the front inch is also the easiest to penetrate, and the further back it goes, the more difficult it becomes!" ”
The gray-clothed instructor gave an order.
"The first one!"
The assessment begins.
Immediately, a panicked young man stepped forward, handed the exam voucher with personal information in his hand to the table in front of the examiner, and then turned his head to the weapon rack to look for a suitable opportunity.
Without waiting for him to pick out his weapon, the instructor began again: "Next!" What are you waiting for? The walls are so big, there are so many weapons, a few more! ”
Immediately, three or two more teenagers submitted their vouchers.
Zhang Fan also took the opportunity to come to Chen Fan's side: "Test later, it's best to choose a spear as a test prop, it's easier to go deeper!" ”
In the battle with others, it is natural to use the most convenient weapon, but in this kind of force measurement link, there is also an element of tricks.
The smaller the contact surface of the weapon, the easier it is to penetrate, and if you take a hammer, the power is big enough, but don't think about how deep the dent is.
Chen Fan nodded clearly, this senior brother had a sharp mind and reacted quickly.
In fact, spear-like weapons are not easy to use, and those who have no experience in operation may not be able to smash deeper than the traces of swords. As long as you don't stupidly choose weapons such as giant hammers, there won't be much of a gap.
The first few people chose in turn, and most of them chose swords, slashing and slashing at the wall.
There is also a special person with special measuring tools next to him to measure the results.
"The highest two times is only one inch and seven minutes, you are twenty years old, why is your strength so small? Unqualified! ”
"Twenty-three years old, two inches and one point, a little bit, let's do it a second time!"
"Unqualified!"
"Next! Don't wait for me to scream, if you see a vacant seat in front of you, come up and test! ”
Three or four people went up one after another, but none of them passed.
Even though Chen Fan knew that the assessment of the Martial Academy was difficult, he didn't expect such an exaggeration.
It wasn't until the second round that an eighteen-year-old boy passed.
"Two inches and three points, good, C-class results, pass!"
These instructors are all strong, their thinking is far and fast, and they can immediately calculate their results when they look at their ages and assessment results.
Zhang Fan narrowed his eyes and said to Chen Fan:
"It's good to say that the requirements for strength in the first and second grades are much higher, especially the first-class rating. And the results of this round of assessment will also be counted to the final round, junior brother, don't have any reservations when you wait for the test! ”
Chen Fan also had a lot of confidence in his own strength, nodded, and then asked, "Is there a higher rating above the first-class results?" ”
When Chen Fan asked like this, Zhang Fan paused instantly, and said in his heart that his genius junior brother was really going to the first grade, so he told him:
"Grade A is already the highest rating, but it is subdivided into upper, middle, and lower, and it is already very difficult to reach the lower grade, and it is extremely difficult to reach the first, and it may not be possible to get one every year, as for the first, it is even more difficult......
"It is said that the establishment of this level is to let the disciples keep an open mind, and the strength measurement assessment of the martial arts institutes in various places is consistent, but since the establishment of the martial arts academies in various places, few people have reached this rating, as for whether anyone in the Qingming Martial Academy has reached it, I don't know......
Chen Fan was also amazed when he heard this.
At this time, a young man who heard the exchange between the two next to him turned his head with a smile:
"There is only one person in the history of the Qingming Martial Arts Academy who has reached the rating of the Strength Measurement Level A, and that was twenty years ago, it is said that that person is a powerful blood body, a peerless genius, and he became a martial arts martial arts sixfold in less than five years, and he stepped into the Haori Building of the Martial Arts Academy in five years."
Entering Haori Tower means that he has become a master of the grandmaster.
This person will become a grandmaster after ten years of entering the martial arts academy, which means that when he becomes a grandmaster, he will be in his early thirties at most, and may even be less than thirty!
It is a hard-to-find genius in the entire Qinghe County, comparable to Li Linliu!
