Chapter Seventy-Six: Unexpected Preliminary Examination Information (1st Update)
After several days of exploration, it was finally time to face the registration, and the three of them dispersed.
Although he heard that there were many counters that accepted registrations, Xia Jiang still gave up the opportunity to travel on the last day, went directly to the periphery of the college, and began to wait a day in advance. Needless to say, there were many people who thought the same way as him, and some were even too excited, and they all came here three or five days in advance, in order to be able to sign up one step ahead.
With more and more people like Xia Jiang who must prepare for everything first, when it was time to sign up, there was already a long queue of miles long.
"Hey, all of you who signed up, have you brought enough money? I heard that this time the Chamber of Commerce signed up, one person got five five-grade spars, three more than a few years ago!" When the registration time was only ten minutes away, a person suddenly said to the several long queues around him.
"What? Who did you listen to, how could there be so many?" one of his faces turned pale in an instant, and he questioned.
"yes, if that's the case, I feel like a lot of people won't even be able to report their names. ”
"Hahaha, look at you poor ghosts, you also want to come here, go back to farming!"
"Hey, are you so rich, it's not that there are a few stinky money in the family, everyone comes here to learn to do business and make money, and then who has the real ability may not be able to say!" A young girl obviously can't get used to scolding poor teenagers.
On the other hand, a beautiful woman swept the little girl and said, "The little girl is quite pure, but it may not be necessary to go in." ”
As soon as the girl was told by the other party, she was immediately unhappy and said, "What did you say?"
"I said little sister, you are too naïve, this is not the place for you people to come, leaving early can save a lot of registration fees......" the beautiful woman said, smiling slightly.
The young man who seemed to be very rich on the side saw him, and immediately said with interest: "This sister is so beautiful, let's make a friend, how much is it?"
But I saw that this beautiful woman did not feel humiliated because of the young man's temptation of money, but Ying Ying smiled and said: "Yes, a few ten-grade spars are enough." ”
Ten Grades......
When a few people heard this, they gasped, but they saw that the rich young man was also suddenly deflated, and only glanced at the beautiful woman again, then withdrew his confused gaze and stopped talking.
As their voices finally fell, the registration finally began.
But what is unexpected is that many people in front of the queue immediately fell into the controversy over the registration fee, and the registration fee was really as expected by the person, and it required five five-grade spars!
You must know that most of the people who can come here have raised money according to the previous registration fee, and some have increased their budget by half at most, and they have almost gone bankrupt, taking out all their savings, and they all have the dream of entering the imperial courtyard, making money, and practicing infinitely.
At this moment, the price has suddenly risen more than twice, and these people naturally cannot afford it, and no matter how they argue at this moment, it is obviously useless.
Xia Jiang, standing in a position of about a few hundred in the queue, originally thought that it would take a long time to register, but he came in less than an hour.
"Five spars......" The voice of a beautiful young woman sounded faintly.
The spar had already been prepared, Xia Jiang immediately paid for it, and then began to report his name and other information that needed to be recorded, and then he soon got a unique identity jade plate of the Dugu Empire.
As long as he held the jade plate and the power of the bloodline was slightly exerted, he could see a large amount of information inside, however, when he saw this information, he couldn't help but be shocked.
"Preliminary Examination, Re-examination, Candidate, Selection Grade...... What do I see?"
Xia Jiang looked at this information a little speechlessly, and then he realized how difficult it was to enter this imperial courtyard, and it was indeed as difficult as the legend was.
After checking it out and putting the identity card into the storage ring, Xia Jiang immediately took action.
After signing up, those of them who successfully get the jade medal will face the first step of the assessment, which is called the "first test".
The location of the first test made Xia Jiang a little surprised, he actually had to go to the top of a giant mountain tens of thousands of meters high, but because this giant mountain was in the outer territory of the academy, it was not too troublesome.
Speaking of which, I have to talk about the scale of this imperial courtyard. Although it is only used as a periphery for registration and testing, the area is very large, already equivalent to the size of a small and medium-sized city in the empire, and it is also called the "exogenous area" or "apprenticeship area", that is, there will be a part of the informal students in the zài.
Now, those of them who are not even "trainees" will go to the place where the mountain is located, and they will have to climb it within three days after the registration period ends.
Touching the location of the giant mountain, Xia Jiang rode to the mount, and arrived that night, when he found that someone had begun to prepare for climbing, but he was not in a hurry, and immediately found a quiet place at the foot of the giant mountain and meditated.
After the first few battles and retreats, his cultivation had improved again, and now his bloodline potential was at least fifty or more, and he felt that the state of demon addiction was becoming more and more perfect, he had to prepare in advance to keep himself in the best condition.
Staying quietly in one place, entering the meditation, the surrounding qiē became subtle, like countless particles that had been decomposed, some floating in the air, some combined into a single body, and behind him the giant mountain was a combination of an unimaginable number of particles.
Deeply intoxicated by this state of demonic addiction, Xia Jiang continued to explore and comprehend, and he was just going to spend the night, but when he woke up, it was already noon on the third day.
When he opened his eyes, Xia Jiang saw countless voices boiling, all climbing towards the giant mountain, and countless people were rushing here.
He opened his vision a little and swept over, only to see endless figures, the number of which was indescribable, I am afraid that there were really tens of millions.
"Count...... I actually sat in meditation for three days, but fortunately now is the time when the largest number of people go up the mountain......" Xia Jiang concentrated his mind and felt a little, knowing that he had been here for a few days, so he immediately stopped hesitating and immediately went up the mountain.
There are more than ten roads up the mountain in the giant mountain, each of which is extremely wide, but there is no need to be too crowded and troubled.
Most of the people who came here were carrying mounts, and Xia Jiang naturally wouldn't walk up the mountain stupidly, because this was not a normal academy that talked about cultivation and martial arts, and as a business academy, it didn't attach too much importance to personal cultivation.
However, there are still some people who are stupid, watching others use their mounts to climb the mountain, only to realize that they have made a mistake in judgment, and they are so tired that they are left far behind.
After less than half a day, Xia Jiang easily climbed this giant mountain.
"Hey, what's that?"
Just after going up the mountain, Xia Jiang looked up and saw a dazzling ball of light floating in the air, exuding bursts of fluctuations.
When he came to the bottom of the ball of light, he found that many people were looking up curiously, but there were also some people who were obviously tired of finding the answer and waiting quietly.
However, when Xia Jiang entered the state of demon addiction meditation, he finally vaguely knew what this thing was, if nothing went wrong, this thing should be a super huge magic weapon, specially used for the first test.
And as time passed, everyone gradually turned from excitement to quiet, and silently began to wait for the first time to approach, when the registration time was already over, which means that everyone was either still climbing the mountain or all of them were here.
"Those people are really slow, knowing that I didn't come so early, and in the end they didn't have the first test together?" Seeing that there were still two days left, some people began to complain because they arrived too early.
"Yes, I think this first test should start immediately when people climb this huge mountain, and whoever arrives first will test first, which will not only save time, but also make it convenient for everyone to enter the retest ...... quickly."
"What you're saying is, but in that case, it's a bit unfair to those who don't have the money, because they may be delayed because of the registration fee, you know, it's all about efficiency, and if you are one step behind, you may miss out on a lot of benefits......"
"Is it fair, the world itself is unfair...... one person sighed.
Although Xia Jiang was in a state of meditation addiction, he could still hear the discussions of the people around him, and the moment he heard these discussions, he suddenly faintly felt that something in the storage ring came out of strange fluctuations, this feeling was not clear, anyway, he felt that there was something abnormal in the storage ring.
Unable to explain this feeling, with his confidence in his intuition, he didn't think about it, and immediately took out the jade plate first.
Airplanes!
The moment he took it out, he suddenly felt that the jade plaque in his hand seemed to have an attraction to the ball of light, as if there was a wonderful particle between the two that was related to each other!
"This is the time that hasn't started yet, why does the jade plaque have such a direct connection with the ball of light?" Xia Jiang was surprised, he couldn't help but stand up, let go of his vision and swept towards the countless crowds, and suddenly, he found that there were only a few people, who were actually holding the jade plaque in their hands, not knowing what they were doing.
Seeing this scene, Xia Jiang was suddenly enlightened, and immediately held the jade plate high, and at the same time entered the connection between the light ball and the jade plate with all his heart.
In the state of demon addiction, this feeling was extremely clear, compared to just now, he felt that more particles began to pour into the jade plate, and suddenly his heart moved, and he used the power of his blood to urge the jade card with all his might.
Buzzing......
This moment happened wonderfully, just under the power of his bloodline all urging the jade plate, the ball of light, the particle specially sensed in his state of demonic addiction, actually entered the jade card at a speed of nearly ten times, and soon, a message actually appeared in the jade card.
"The first test: the test of questions, 1: a person can concentrate on comprehending the magic weapon, why should you focus on doing business? The results of the comprehensive evaluation of answering this question will determine whether you can get more questions. The number of questions answered will directly determine the outcome of your 'first attempt'. ”
Seeing this information, Xia Jiang was stunned, and couldn't help but look around, and found that the vast majority of people were still waiting silently, obviously unable to sense this situation at all.
