Back at the gate of the manor, Kong Hong was already waiting there.

He had already learned about the big exam from the candidates who left early, and he still looked a little dazed, and he stood in place for a long time and couldn't come back to his senses.

It wasn't until he saw Lin Shen come out that he woke up like a dream, and looked at Lin Shen in amazement.

In the past few months, Lin Shen has brought him one surprise after another.

Whenever he thought that this was Lin Shen's limit, the latter could often refresh his cognition again.

Now he has even gotten the position of the chief of the big exam!

This is undoubtedly the first time in the history of Jiuyang Daoyuan!

Kong Hong didn't know how to describe his mood, and his chest was full of shock and admiration.

It wasn't until Lin Shen came close that Kong Hong calmed down a little and said with a smile:

"If you win the position of the chief of the big exam this time, the academy will definitely give you a lot of rewards, remember to come to the academy tomorrow to receive it!"

"I see, thank you, teacher."

Lin Shen did not take the bus of Huailiu Academy, but left with Yang Zhongyi and Su Nian.

Seeing the vehicle of the three people go away, Kong Hong slowly retracted his gaze and sighed with emotion on his face.

"Now the academy is probably going to be a sensation!"

......

"Cheers!"

In the spacious and bright box, Lin Shen, Yang Zhongyi and Su Nian sat together and toasted together.

"Lao Lin is famous this time, tsk, the first freshman chief in the history of Jiuyang Daoist Academy who is not from a family!"

Yang Zhongyi poured a full glass of beer in one go, shaking his head and sighing.

"Zhao Xueying, Xue Feng, Chongyan and ...... This year, so many powerful characters were all killed by Lao Lin, this has to be changed before the big exam, who told me this kind of thing, I don't believe it first! ”

"Lin Shen's performance today is really amazing." Su Nian agreed.

"Alright, don't just praise me." Lin Shen shook his head and smiled, "You two have also entered the top fifteen. ”

At the mention of this, Yang Zhongyi suddenly had a smug smile on his face.

Even if he is a descendant of five famous families, he can get the twelfth place in the big exam, which is enough to be called good.

What's more, this year's big exam is full of elites, and the competition is far more fierce than in previous years, and the gold content of the ranking is higher.

Su Nian also turned the corners of his mouth slightly, and a smile appeared.

Although far inferior to Lin Shen, the fifteenth place result has also met his psychological expectations.

"Lao Yang, tell me about the Jiuyang Daoist Academy." Lin Shen said suddenly.

Although he had privately checked the affairs of Jiuyang Dao Academy, there were some things that outsiders could not know after all.

Only a person like Yang Zhongyi, who was born in an eighteen-year cultivation family, could have a more in-depth understanding of the Jiuyang Daoist Academy through family channels.

Su Nian also showed a listening look.

Because of his family background, he didn't know much more about Jiuyang Daoist Academy than Lin Shen.

Hearing this, Yang Zhongyi had nothing to do, and after organizing the language a little, he began to talk eloquently.

"You should all know that the Jiuyang Daoist Academy is divided into two courts, the upper courtyard is too far away from us, so let's not talk about it, in the lower courtyard, the disciples are divided into four levels of heaven and earth Xuanhuang according to their status level, from high to low."

"Different levels, the cultivation resources that disciples can obtain are also different, and the gap between the cultivation resources between each level is huge, so the disciples of the Dao Academy are reckless and want to improve their level."

"So how do you level up?" Su Nian asked.

Yang Zhongyi took a bite of food without hesitation, and then continued:

"The number of disciples at each level is fixed."

"For example, the highest-level heaven-level disciple only has fifty places, and if the earth-level disciple wants to improve his level, he can only defeat the heaven-level disciple and replace him to successfully ascend to the throne!"

"The same is true for Xuan-level disciples who want to become earth-level disciples."

"Every three months, the Daoist Academy will hold a level challenge, and the lower-level disciples can apply to challenge the higher-level disciples, and as long as they succeed, they can be replaced!"

"Then what is the level of those of us freshmen who have just entered the Dao Academy?" Lin Shen asked.

"As far as I know, there are now a total of 571 people in the lower court, including 50 heaven-level disciples, 100 earth-level disciples, 200 Xuan-level disciples, and the remaining 221 are yellow-level disciples."

"And there are a total of three hundred places for yellow-level disciples, in other words, the top seventy-nine freshmen in this year's big exam are yellow-level disciples after entering the Dao Academy, and the remaining one hundred and twenty-one freshmen are of no grade and are only allocated the least amount of cultivation resources."

Lin Shen and Su Nian couldn't help but be stunned, they didn't expect that Jiuyang Daoist Academy still had such a regulation.

Suddenly, Su Nian suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly said:

"That's not right, Zhongyi, I remember that the Jiuyang Daoist Academy is a five-year system, and it enrolls two hundred people every year, even if one disciple has already graduated, there should be eight hundred disciples now."

Lin Shen's expression moved, and he suddenly thought of what Ke Ya had said after the big exam.

Entering the temple does not mean that you will be able to complete the course. ’

Sure enough, I heard Yang Zhongyi say:

"The lower court will eliminate the last fifty disciples every year, plus those who went mad while cultivating, those who died while performing tasks, and the number of disciples who died due to various accidents, now there are more than five hundred people left, which is already a lot!"

Lin Shen's eyes flashed slightly.

The level challenge, as well as the elimination of the last place, no wonder it is said that the competition in Jiuyang Daoist Academy is extremely fierce, and now it seems that it is indeed true.

"Fifty disciples are eliminated every year...... Isn't that too unfair to the disciples who come in later? Su Nian frowned and questioned, "Their cultivation time is at least one year less than that of the old students, but they have to face the same competition, which is too much of a loss." ”

"So what?"

Yang Zhongyi spread his hands.

"There is no complete fairness in this world, and if you really want to pay attention to it, the gap in the qualifications of cultivators is the biggest unfairness!"

"What's more, in the eyes of the top level of the sect, if the disciple's qualifications are good enough, even if the cultivation time is less than others, he will definitely be able to stand out, and only those who are not qualified well enough and work hard enough will be eliminated!"

"No matter how many such people are eliminated, the top leaders of the sect will not feel distressed."

"To be honest, although this method is a bit harsh, it also makes the disciples of the Daoist Academy better and better year by year, this is an indisputable fact!"

Su Nian was speechless.

"Of course, those eliminated disciples are not just abandoned, they can choose to become the outer disciples of the Jiuyang Sect, take up various grassroots positions, and they can also join the Zhiwu Hall, and their future is worry-free."

Yang Zhongyi poured a glass of wine for Lin Shen and Su Nian respectively, and continued:

"Okay, don't just think about other people, think about ourselves."

"There is still a month left before the day of reporting to the Taoist Academy, and we still have a difficult time to face."

Lin Shen was stunned: "What difficulty?" ”

"Mentoring Battle!"

Yang Zhongyi laughed, picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

"The good name is that the senior brothers and sisters guide the junior brothers and sisters who have just entered the Taoist Academy, but in fact, it is a disadvantage for the old students to the new students!"
