Great Shun Kingdom, royal palace.
"Your Majesty, the results of the entrance exams for each ghost academy have been released. Please take a look." In a grand hall, a minister held a stack of lists and said respectfully.
Skala raised her eyes and glanced at the other party, and said calmly: "Don't always call it a ghost academy. The school's original name is the Holy Academy. It has to be called a ghost academy. How unpleasant is it?"
"Yes!" The minister responded quickly.
Scala said: "Let me look at the list."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, and the list flew into his hand as if it had wings.
The Ghost Academy, formerly known as the Holy Academy, is the highest institution of learning in the Holy World. Many of the outstanding students who graduate from it are the future pillars of the country, so as the leader of a country, Skala naturally pays great attention to it.
"The results of the top ten are all expected." After reading the first three lists, Skala sighed slightly and said: "The ascending path of the Great Shun Kingdom is almost monopolized by the children of these aristocratic families."
Skala loved and hated these aristocratic families who were like giant dragons and dominated the times. On the one hand, the royal family needed to rely on the power of the aristocratic families. On the other hand, the status of the royal family was always threatened by the aristocratic families.
If it weren't for the most powerful person like Skala to control the situation, the Shun Kingdom might not necessarily be dominated by one family. He didn't think that his incompetent descendants could suppress the big families who were ready to make a move.
In order to curb the development of aristocratic families and powerful forces, Skala has made a lot of efforts. In recent years, it has introduced some policies that are beneficial to the children of poor families. Unfortunately, the results have been very little. This can be seen from the examination lists of the three schools in the South, North and North. You can tell one thing or two from the results - the top ten candidates are basically occupied by the children of aristocratic families. If you look at it, they all have familiar surnames.
"The East School should be Jie'er's school."
Scala quickly set his sights on the last list. He remembered correctly that among the freshmen of East School, one of the more outstanding ones was the boy from the Li family.
"Li Ze from the Li family, Yang Wei from the Yang family, Sun Yue from the Sun family... In addition, it seems that Lin Zhengyang from Buddhism is also good, and there seems to be a Bai Yuchen from the civilian class."
From Scala's point of view, he would rather have a strong man from the civilian class aspire to win the crown, no matter how bad the Buddhist Lin Zhengyang is, after all, the Buddhist sect remains relatively neutral.
But reason told him that the champion of this exam should be Li Ze.
First of all, Li Ze's realm has reached the three-soul realm on the eve of his enrollment. As a member of the Li family, he naturally has endless tricks and scheming, so he is the most likely to win the championship.
Thinking of this, Skara had a headache. The Li family was becoming more and more powerful and had seriously threatened the interests of the royal family. Maybe one day the king's position would change hands.
"Can't there be a few dark horses?"
Scala helplessly set his sights on the East School examination list. He hoped that a miracle would happen this year. Although he knew that the possibility was very small, so small that it was insignificant, but...
"Huh?" Just when Slaka's eyes glanced at the name at the top of the list, his expression paused slightly, and a look of astonishment appeared in his expression.
The name of the first place was beyond his expectation.
There are no aristocratic families, no big forces like the Pill Hall, Weapon Pavilion, and Buddhism, and there are no names that Skala has heard of among the common people.
This name is very unfamiliar. No big power in the Great Shun Kingdom has a surname related to him. Skala searched through his memory and could not find the existence of this name at all.
This name is——
Ye Yan!
Looking at the name of the first place, a look of confusion appeared in Skala's eyes, and she murmured.
"Who is Ye Yan?"
...
East School.
Not long after the entrance exam ended, the whole school became excited. The entrance exam for freshmen every year can be called a large-scale exam, and candidates who can achieve good results in this exam will basically become the best in this class for the next four years. This is why the school attaches great importance to this exam from top to bottom.
It didn't take long for the school to evaluate the final test results and put the top 1,000 test results on the school announcement. At the same time, the school's test list, which was set up in the teaching area to encourage students, was updated simultaneously, allowing all teachers and students in the school to You can see the test results.
Before the Zhanyuan exam results, it was already overcrowded.
"The results of the entrance exam will be out soon!"
"It is said that this year's entrance exam has become more intense. Not only are there fights between freshmen, but there are also external elements such as old students and resentful spirits joining in."
"This is really exciting. I don't know who will win the championship this year."
"You don't have to think about it. You can even think about it with your buttocks. You must be the children of those wealthy families. Isn't it like this every year?"
"Well, who says it's not the case, but I still hope that there will be a few dark horses this year..."
As the ace academy of the school, Zhan Academy naturally attracts the most attention, so at this moment, tens of thousands of teachers and students have gathered here just to witness the entrance examination results of this session with their own eyes.
"It's out, the results are out!"
I don't know who shouted, and just as he finished speaking, a golden light began to glow on the exam list and kept flashing.
Old students all know that this is a precursor to upcoming data updates.
Countless teachers and students opened their eyes wide and stared at the examination results in front of them. The scene, which was originally slightly noisy due to the large number of people, suddenly became silent as everyone was waiting for the results to be announced.
"Buzz!"
After the examination list flashed for a few times, the golden light finally turned into golden characters, which were engraved on the examination list. The moment the list appeared, the instinctive reaction of most people was to look at the top.
At the top of the exam list, five words are extremely dazzling.
——First place, Ye Yan.
After seeing this extremely unfamiliar name, everyone was excited and asked each other who this Ye Yan was. Suddenly, my name resounded throughout the school in just a few seconds.
Cultivation Tower, eighth floor.
"Is this...?" Having just left the soul space, I couldn't help but frown as I looked at the unfamiliar and empty scene around me.
Isn’t the exam over? What the hell is this place?
Just when I was wondering about the environment I was in, a voice suddenly came from behind me: "This is the eighth floor of the training tower. All candidates can rest here for three days after finishing."
The sudden sound startled me. I didn't know there was anyone else in the room. When I suddenly looked back, I saw a familiar face.
"Dean Wang?"
The person who came was none other than Wang Hongxuan. Seeing me looking at him, Wang Hongxuan nodded, showed a smile and said, "Classmate Ye Yan, I am here to inform you of good news."
"Congratulations, you won the first place in this entrance exam!"
