In the spring of March, it is cold and cold, the east wind gradually rises, the sound is like a howl, the spring rain is like a crisp, moisturizing things silently, ten thousand trees are revived, the grass and trees are spit green, the insects in the grass begin to play and sing happily, the birds in the treetops have returned, and the occasional warm sun shines, which makes people very comfortable.

On the official roads leading to Yanyang City, there are cars and horses, and the voices of people are boiling, and it has become very lively.

The famous annual Yanyang Academy enrollment meeting in the mainland is coming. People of all kinds from near and far came one after another, and the rich families carried horses and camels, their families and children, and their servants accompanied each other, and the convoys were long and immense; the poor families, in twos and threes, walked on foot, hungry and thirsty, pale and suffering from wind and frost.

However, no matter how many people as they were, their faces were full of joy, and their eyes were full of endless hope and longing, and they were all full of expectations for the future enrollment of Yanyang Academy. Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, in order to seek a good way out for their children, they come from thousands of miles away.

The mighty procession, which had been set off since a few months ago, was like flowing water gathering towards the gates of Burning Sun City. Hundreds of rivers enter the sea in the east, and study in the hot sun. The city of the scorching sun became hot, and the enthusiasm of the people made this ancient city boiling.

Yanyang City, the city is majestic, it is known as "the first male city in the East", it covers a huge area, with a radius of nearly 10,000 miles, and ordinary people go around the city once, it also takes more than a year. Therefore, in order to facilitate the life and travel of residents, at the beginning of the construction of the city, the designer of the city, the first president of Yanyang Academy, Yan Wuyun, deliberately set up four city gates in the east, south, west and north, namely: the East Qinglong Gate, the West White Tiger Gate, the South Vermilion Bird Gate, and the North Xuanwu Gate. The city wall is wide and long, the city gate is tall, 60 meters wide, 99 meters high, supplemented by the city wall of more than 10,000 miles, the city wall is built with huge stones, domineering and domineering, it makes people excited, full of pride.

The towering Yanyang City is the pride of all Yanyang people.

Since the early hours of the morning, the city gates of the four directions have been opened one after another, and men, women and children have entered the city of Yanyang from all directions. Suddenly, Yanyang City boiled, as if a giant dragon had woken up from its slumber, boiling and enthusiastic. Pedestrians from all over the world walked out of various intersections and inns one after another, heading towards the center of the city, the location of Yanyang Academy.

Yanyang Academy, the gate of the academy is located in the center of Yanyang City, from the center of Yanyang City to the north, nearly half of the place is the territory of Yanyang Academy, if you are arriving in Yanyang City for the first time, you don't have to be afraid of getting lost, as long as you go north, you can reach Yanyang Academy.

Since it was the first day of enrollment at the college, the teachers of the college and a group of senior students of the college got up early, were enthusiastic, and did some preparations for enrollment in an orderly manner.

Although the academy is very famous on the mainland, the enrollment work is extremely simple, and in an open space near the gate of the academy, there are several desks, and several teachers and old students of the student union have already taken their seats and begun to prepare for enrollment.

Yanyang Academy is the size of half a city, however, the academy does not have a courtyard wall, and it is surrounded by a circle of tall fire trees unique to Yanyang City, which is as red as fire. The trunk of the tree is as bright as a fire spirit, but the leaves are emerald green, like tourmaline. Whenever in the middle of summer, the fire tree blooms, the flowers are red like fire, the bears are burning, the green leaves are like green, the verdant is dripping, it is really good-looking, it is a big landscape of the Chiyan City, attracting tourists like weaving.

It is said that it is the gate, in fact, it is two stone pillars that reach the sky, there is a zhang thick, towering into the clouds, almost invisible, the whole body is fiery red, carved into a torch-shaped, covered with miraculous runes, there is a huge fire essence, blazing and burning, every night is more intense, it seems to burn through the blue sky.

The interior of Yanyang Academy is actually very simple, it is an undeveloped primeval forest, with overgrown trees, wildflowers and grasses. Surrounded by mountains and mountains, rocks and ponds, there are all kinds of monsters in the depths of the forest. In short, from the outside, the college often does not see a single residence for dozens of miles.

It is said that the classrooms of Yanyang Academy are all in the depths of the academy, and it takes several days to walk on foot. However, although the seowon is primitive, its reputation on the mainland is indeed resounding, and it is the fourth largest seowon on the mainland.

In front of the registration office, the students who came to study gradually began to gather, and the teacher Yan Huoying of the admissions office began to greet the students to start registering: "Students, welcome to our Yanyang Academy, this year's registration is the same as last year, it is still divided into three levels, the first level, the difficulty and danger of refining real gold, the second level, the illusion in front of the platform, and the last level, the talent in front of the Vientiane Mirror." First of all, please go to the registration office to get the registration imprint, and then please go to the first level of the assessment office to take the first level of the exam, okay, let's go. ”

As soon as Teacher Yan finished speaking, a group of twelve or thirteen-year-old teenagers came over in a line, ready to sign up.

A tall boy, holding a red red bird seal, stuck on the forehead of the first boy, suddenly, the boy's forehead released a red light, a red bird shot into the sky, the boy did not ask for names and other names, and said quickly: "Okay, you go to the first level, the next one." ”

The boy hurried away, and the boy continued to put a red bird mark on the forehead of the next one.

Time flies, the boys keep brushing the Vermilion Bird Seal for the test exam, and the teenagers and girls who signed up came over one after another, and some rushed to the first level one after another, and every quarter of an hour, under the command of Teacher Yan, they would change the classmates who brushed the Vermilion Bird Seal, and then, the previous classmate panted and went to the side to sit and rest, and run the Yanhuo Technique to restore spiritual power.

The registration is in full swing, and from the time the sun rises to the time it sets, it is already ten reincarnations. However, still, there are a lot of teenagers coming, and Mr. Yan is very excited: "The number of students who have signed up for the college this year has reached 1 million, which is a record result, and it only reached more than 900,000 on the last day of previous years. My father must be satisfied. In two days, the enrollment work will be over, everyone will refuel, and the rewards of the college will be sent to everyone when they go back. ”

The members of the student council were all happy, and their hands and feet were neatly carrying out the work of brushing the Suzaku seal, and their eyebrows were fluttering, humming a little song happily, and they began to work happily.

When the twelfth day came, Mr. Yan and the old students were exhausted and sat at the table. After more than ten days of simple and repeated work, everyone was a little numb. For the end of the work, for the return to the college for a new semester of study, for the teachers and classmates who have not seen each other for a long time, everyone is full of expectations. The future of learning will be full of wonderful journeys.

The sky gradually darkened, and Teacher Yan gave an order and ordered everyone to call it a day. The students immediately stopped what they were doing, collected the desks, collected the chairs, and the joy of returning to the city jumped to their brows. Like a little rabbit, even An Rujing, the usually very calm student union president, jumped up uncharacteristically, and "Ouye" screamed with joy, making everyone laugh. The beauty on the side, Lin Daiyu also pursed her mouth and snickered. The fat giant tiger yawned and prepared to be the first to hit the road.

At this moment, a ragged young man, wearing shabby clothes, seemed to crawl out of the mound, and with a strong smell of sweat, he rushed in. ”

When he walked up to Teacher Yan, he fell to the ground because of the loss of strength.

When Teacher Yan saw it, he couldn't help frowning.

"Teacher, teacher, I came from Cangshan City, and I walked on the road for seven months, but I can't miss it, teacher, teacher, let me take a test, I'm a peerless genius." ”

"Cangshan is here, well, okay, I miss you sincerely, big tiger, give him a chance. ”

"Cangshan is 50,000 miles away from Yancheng, and it is indeed not easy to walk on foot. ”

The huge tiger took out the Vermilion Bird Seal and brushed it on the boy, and the red light on his forehead startled the boy.

"This is the Suzaku mark, with this mark, you can participate in the assessment. ”

When the boy heard this, he was very happy, "Thank you, thank you, I can participate in the assessment." Great, Oye. ”

Teacher Yan smiled and said, "Go quickly, it's late, the first level is about to close." ”

The boy immediately got up and hurried to the first level.

The first pass was just north of the registration office, about a mile away, and when the young man arrived panting, the disciples were already ready to leave.

"Wait, and me. ”

"Hey, why is there another one, name?"

"Bai Butong. ”

"Hurry up and get in. ”

At the first level, there is only a black space door, carved dragons and phoenixes, various patterns, revealing endless mysterious columns, there is no gate in the middle, only empty darkness, like a black hole that can swallow light, attracting people's sight and mind.

Bai Butong, a young man who was late, was full of depression and a little panicked, and his hurried footsteps stopped because of this. In his eyes, with doubts, he looked at the disciple guarding the pass, the disciple guarding the pass was kind, his name was Zuo Qiu Liang, he was a student of the 250th class of Yanyang Academy, and he was the third-ranked core disciple at that time, and now he has cultivated the famous Yanhuo Technique of Yanyang Academy to the third layer - Yan Ling.

In the Nine Dao Continents, cultivators are divided into ten realms, namely: Scholar Level, Master Level, Spirit Level, King Level, Emperor Level, Emperor Level, Sect Level, Venerable Level, Holy Level, and God Level. Each level is divided into ten levels, and Zuo Qiu Liang happens to be the eighth level of Yan Ling, which belongs to the best of the spirit-level cultivators, and can be said to be an almost invincible existence at the king level. Compared to ordinary people, it is a god-like existence, and for cultivators, mortals are like ants in terms of strength.

Zuo Qiu Liang smiled lightly at Bai Butong, a late boy, and encouraged him: "Go, there is nothing terrible in it, it is the trial space of our Yanyang Academy, as long as you successfully complete the trial, you can become a student of Yanyang Academy, work hard, believe in yourself, you will definitely be able to do it." ”

"Thank you. The young man Bai Butong's eyes immediately lit up, revealing endless faith, and his steps became stronger, quickly passing through the black gate of time and space, and entering the unknown trial space.
