Three days later, the semi-annual assessment of Huimin College began.
After the dean gave an impassioned speech, the envoy sent by the Starfall Empire to watch and supervise the ceremony gave an inspiring speech. It made the disciples present excited and eager to try. In this assessment, no matter which class of disciples ranks among the top ten in the same class, they can freely choose to join the Royal Academy in Kyoto for further studies.
The Royal Academy is known as the cradle of imperial talents. It has trained countless imperial generals. Every dog that comes out of the Royal Academy is more prestigious than anywhere else. There is a widely circulated saying in the empire that as long as you join the Royal Academy, glory and wealth will be just around the corner.
This assessment abandoned the previous draw challenge method and adopted a free challenge mode. Lu Changfeng and his group still have a total of 363 people in this session. First, rank them from one to three hundred and sixty-three based on their cultivation level. If two people have the same cultivation level, they will be ranked based on their results in the last assessment against the agency.
After the preliminary ranking is determined, the free challenge will begin. If those with lower rankings are dissatisfied with the preliminary ranking results, they can challenge it. Each person has five challenge opportunities. If the challenge is successful, while keeping the number of challenges unchanged, the challenger will replace the challenger's ranking with his own ranking. At the same time, the challenged person and his subsequent people will be ranked up to the challenger's previous ranking. The ranking of everyone before the challenger will drop by one, while the rankings of those below the challenger will remain unchanged.
If the challenge fails, the ranking will remain unchanged, but the challenge opportunity will be deducted once. Challenges can only be challenged upwards by those with lower rankings, not downwards. Under normal circumstances, the challenged party has no right to refuse the challenge. However, challengers cannot challenge opponents who are ranked more than twenty places higher than themselves, and they cannot eat a fat man in one bite. This effectively eliminates the possibility of fake matches.
In addition, challengers cannot challenge opponents whose spiritual power level is more than three levels higher than themselves. Once the apparent difference in strength reaches more than three levels, the academy will determine that the players on both sides are not at the same level, so there is no need to fight. So for those of you who specialize in playing leapfrog challenges, consider yourself unlucky.
Also, during the assessment process, you cannot challenge the same person repeatedly. If a person is selected to challenge by multiple people at the same time, then many challengers will decide the winner first, and the winner will challenge first.
After the challenged person completes the competition, he will get a two-hour protection period. During the protection period, he can challenge others, but cannot be challenged. If he is injured, the protection period will be extended appropriately based on the evaluation of the doctor. This is quite user-friendly and prevents people with lower rankings from plotting against those with higher rankings through wheel battles. It also prevents people from trying to take advantage of others when they are tired or injured.
Just when Lu Changfeng was thinking about letting Zhou Hua challenge him, he gave in and helped him advance. After seeing that he could not jump to the third level, Lu Changfeng instantly turned black and felt that Jiang Yonglin's conscience was really damaged.
Lu Changfeng was still a little worried about Zhou Hua. After all, he was only at the sixth level of the martial arts master realm. Even with the scarlet armor on him, it was still difficult to make people feel at ease. There is no need for Long Hu to worry. Although he is only a small level higher than Zhou Hua, his actual combat ability far exceeds that. Even Lu Changfeng is not sure of victory for Long Hu with the Wujin Spear in hand. As for Lu Changfeng himself, he was ranked 22nd last time, and he has risen to a great level in the past few months. Even if the inner courtyard is full of geniuses, Lu Changfeng should not fall out of the top 100.
Finally, the college stipulated that in this assessment, the top 160 people will enter the inner court, while the 320 or later people will be eliminated from the college. There are still additional rewards for the top 100, and this time the rewards are generous, because this time there is strong support from the General Hospital and royal sponsorship.
In addition to getting 5,000 taels of silver, the first place player can even get a medium-grade magic weapon; the second place will be rewarded with 3,000 taels of silver and a low-grade magic weapon; the third place will be rewarded with 2,000 taels of silver and a low-grade magic weapon. One piece; each person from four to ten will be rewarded with two thousand taels of silver and some pills; each person from eleven to twenty will be rewarded with one thousand taels of silver and some pills; each person from twenty-one to fifty will be rewarded with five hundred taels of silver. , some elixirs; each person from fifty-one to one hundred will be rewarded with five hundred taels of silver.
Even middle-grade magic weapons were given out as rewards, which shows that the empire has spent a lot of money this time. There must be brave men under heavy rewards. It seems that this assessment is destined to be extraordinary. The assessment period lasts for one month, and the competition is held on ten stages in the school grounds. At noon thirty days later, the assessment ends.
Surprisingly, in this assessment, the college did not say that peace is the most important thing as before, that the competition should end at the end of the trial, and that no deliberate harm to others should be allowed. Instead, it encouraged confrontation and improved performance. This is interesting. All students can have their own grievances and revenge.
A hard reckoning!
On the big screen in the center of the school ground, the preliminary rankings came out. Lu Changfeng ranked sixty-sixth, and he fell down as expected. One of the reasons for this is that the number of people in the inner court has increased too quickly, and another reason is that Lu Changfeng's ranking last time was falsely high.
In terms of cultivation, Lu Changfeng could only be ranked around fifty last time, but because he saw the flaws in the mecha formation, his record in fighting mechs was much higher than those of the same level, so he was ranked higher last time. In this big exam, there were fifteen people in the first level of the Martial Master Realm, but Lu Changfeng ranked first among the fifteen, also because he defeated more traps last time.
What made Lu Changfeng speechless was that the word "big" was written before his name to distinguish him from the little Lu Changfeng who entered the wrong class in the inner courtyard. By the way, that guy's cultivation level is only at the third level of the martial arts master realm, ranked 324th. After the rankings came out, Xiao Lu Changfeng was booed so hard that he couldn't even lift his head. It was unexpected that a waste with such a low ranking would appear in the inner courtyard. This made Lu Changfeng feel very sorry for him. If Lu Changfeng hadn't given him such a name, he wouldn't have the same name as him. If he didn't have the same name as him, he wouldn't go astray. If he didn't go astray, he would... Qiu Chuji wouldn't Will pass through Niujia Village...
Longhu initially ranked 159th, just stepping on a minefield. Many people's strength is high and low. In order to squeeze into the inner court, they will definitely challenge upwards, but they cannot beat those at the top of the challenge, so they will choose the weakest person who has the qualifications of the inner court to challenge. Therefore, in the ranking of Longhu, there must be a lot of people who want to push him down.
In view of this, Lu Changfeng suggested that Longhu strike first and not wait for anyone to challenge him, but instead take the initiative to challenge and strive to enter the hundred or so. Because there are rewards for the top 100, the competition will definitely be fierce. Lu Changfeng does not recommend Longhu to challenge.
Zhou Hua was initially ranked 205. Although he was only a small level lower than Longhu, his poor performance as a trap player last time had a huge impact. Although there has been significant progress in the past few months, and the current ranking is already high in the outer court, it is still not enough to enter the inner court, and one has to rely on challenges. Lu Changfeng suggested that Zhou Hua fight first and move up as much as possible, trying to keep around 150 people and retain one or two opportunities to challenge.
I have to say that this rule is quite popular. In the past, a draw-and-knockout format was used. Those who were unlucky would encounter strong opponents in the first round, and would be eliminated in the first round. This is not fair to many people. Some people bribe the person in charge of the lottery to engage in shady activities. Every knockout round will attract a lot of criticism.
But this time it is different. The ranking and cultivation of each disciple are listed on the central blackboard. Disciples are free to choose their opponents. It is open and transparent. The ranking is determined by the challenge. This can effectively avoid those who are unlucky and will be eliminated quickly. situation. It should be noted that this assessment is more dangerous than before. Be careful of being injured or killed after taking the stage.
With the sound of the gong, the challenge officially begins. The ten arenas on the school grounds immediately became busy, with people constantly challenging them. Some of these disciples usually have grievances. This time they can resolve them in the arena and complete the assessment. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone. It's just that the intensity in this arena was beyond everyone's expectations.
Once you get into the ring, it's basically a matter of life or death. Plus, if there's a quarrel between the two sides, it won't be a big deal. Basically, the first batch of people to enter the ring were all unlucky. There was a disciple in the inner courtyard who had his arm chopped off by his opponent. Not only was he seriously injured, but his arm was missing and his future was basically gone. It was really miserable.
It was too dangerous. Lu Changfeng had no plans to enter the ring for the time being. He didn't want to fight for this useless ranking. The excitement in the arena did not affect Lu Changfeng. He studied the rules carefully to see if there were any loopholes that could be exploited.
A voice came from the loudspeaker: "Dragon Tiger, number 161, challenges Jiang Qingsheng, number 141. Please Jiang Qingsheng quickly come to the No. 7 ring to challenge. Repeat, number 161 The famous Dragon Tiger challenges Jiang Qingsheng, who is one hundred and forty-one, please Jiang Qingsheng to quickly come to the No. 7 arena to challenge."
After listening to the loudspeaker, Lu Changfeng had no reason to study the rules at the bulletin board anymore. When his good brother came on stage, he had to go and see it anyway.
