If you could describe Polu Academy in one word, it would be cold.
Unlike other famous senior students who like to build their campuses in an antique style, the overall architectural style of Polu Academy is hard and cold.
There are hundreds of mechanical buildings on the huge campus. From the moment you enter the school gate, the most common things you see on campus are steel and machinery.
If an uninformed person sees this place at first glance, he may mistakenly think that it is a very large war fortress.
There are also many green plants and gardens in the college, but none of the flowers, plants and trees here are normal.
As long as a few chemicals are added, these pleasant-looking plants will instantly turn into murderous weapons.
The senior leaders of the college have used practical actions to kill the little bit of romance on campus. They seem to want to use this method to tell the students that there is nothing easy as long as they are in the college.
Qin Xiao has been to many places and even seen academies of other races on some alien planets.
But compared with Polu Academy, those foreign academies are particularly warm.
The scale of the grand examination at Polu Academy is much more exaggerated than that at Songhua Academy. Almost all the powerful young star warriors in the star field near Elan Star gather here.
More than 100,000 people apply for Polu Academy, but the number of people who are ultimately admitted does not exceed 10,000 every year.
You know, the candidates who can take the big exam are already the best among their peers, but when they come here, they can only fight for the opportunity to choose one out of ten.
However, for a major exam involving more than 100,000 people, the military did not send any troops to inspect the exam.
It's not that there is any conflict between Polu Academy and the military, but because outside the battlefield, the overall combat power of Polu Academy is even more terrifying than that of the military.
The more than 30,000 students in the academy alone are already a considerable fighting force, not to mention the huge number of powerful teachers in the academy.
More importantly, no one would doubt the attitude of Polu Academy in selecting talents.
Regardless of whether you are one of the four major families or one of the eight major families, those who cannot pass the exam will not be able to enter, and even those who are too weak will not even have a chance to apply.
Polu Academy was confident enough to do this, and they did hold on to the bottom line to do this.
The exam on the first day is a basic physical test. Although there is the word "basic" in it, the actual exam process is even more torturous than going through a battle.
Candidates need to complete various physical function tests in simulated environments of glaciers, deserts, jungles, swamps, and volcanoes, and even conduct combat drills.
In fact, at least half of the students failed to meet the standard in the first basic physical test, which shows the cruelty of the physical test.
However, students who fail to meet the physical test standards will not be eliminated immediately, but can continue to take the weapons test the next day.
Only those whose average scores in the physical test and weapon test do not meet the standard will be completely eliminated, and only those whose average scores meet the standard can take part in the third day of the test - the land of chaos.
The land of chaos is a battlefield that makes the strong stronger and the weak weaker. It is the most cruel test.
Although the exam is conducted using a hyperspace battlefield, no one will actually die, but every year after the war, some people's mentality will collapse.
Because he lost so miserably, he began to doubt his life.
Qin Xiao has not participated in the Polu Academy exam. So far, he has only learned the relevant information from the pre-exam materials.
Qin Xiao felt very new about Polu Academy's examination method and was also looking forward to this examination.
Before the exam started, Zhao Ruling finally arrived late.
She was in the same condition as Haishan and Haiyue. She was a little depressed and she didn't seem to be resting well.
"Didn't find Qi Tong's family?" Qin Xiao asked upon seeing this.
Zhao Ruling shook his head and said, "Found them. The people you mentioned have been found and are under our control."
"Isn't this a good thing? Why are you so worried?" Qin Xiao asked confused.
Zhao Ruling was silent for a moment and explained the current situation clearly.
When Zhao Ruling went home last night and truthfully explained the matter, the Zhao elders realized the seriousness of the problem and immediately mobilized a large amount of manpower and material resources to search for Qitong and his family.
Strangely enough, Qitong's family, who originally thought they would be difficult to find, were found quickly because they were not held hostage at all.
But when they were found by the Zhao family, they were immediately controlled by the Zhao family.
Zhao Ruling's gloominess stems from this. In her opinion, not bringing harm to her family is at least the bottom line that needs to be adhered to.
Qin Xiao had no time to think about Zhao Ruling's depression. Qin Xiao always felt that something was wrong in Zhao Ruling's words.
If this matter was really done by the Zhou family, they shouldn't even do such small things as controlling Qitong's family.
Even if Qi Tong's family was snatched away from the Zhou family by the Zhao family, Qin Xiao could understand it, but finding it without any hindrance smacked of conspiracy.
"Is this what they did on purpose?" Qin Xiao suddenly thought of a terrible possibility.
Before he could think for long, the exam officially began.
"Take the exam first, don't delay your business, and gather at the door after the exam."
Qin Xiao temporarily separated from everyone and rushed towards his examination area.
There was no need to worry about what the Zhou family would do during the exams at Polu College, and Qin Xiao no longer had to think about protecting Haishan like he did during the exams at Songhua College.
The first physical test was conducted in a glacier environment. The extremely cold environment was Qin Xiao's least favorite, and it was also the environment where he was most suppressed.
But even in the most unfavorable environment, Qin Xiao still easily got full marks.
Then there are desert, jungle, and swamp environments. For Qin Xiao, physical testing in these environments is not difficult at all.
Since all exams are completed in simulated battlefields, the invigilation work can also be completed using the monitoring system.
In an invigilation room of Polu Academy, two men were sitting on chairs staring at an examinee on the screen.
The examinee on the screen is Qin Xiao. At this moment, he has already completed the physical test in a swamp environment.
Although the two men watching him test looked different, their temperaments were very similar.
They all have a gangster spirit.
These two men not only have "outstanding temperament", but their identities are also outstanding.
Sitting on the chair on the left is Sun Dianchen, the highest commander of the Elan Star Military Department, and on the other side is Chen Ge, the vice president of Polu Academy.
Although he is nominally the deputy dean, Chen Ge has power in Polu Academy that is comparable to that of the dean.
The dean of Polu Academy is not in the academy most of the time, but travels out to practice. Chen Ge is responsible for all matters, big and small.
Chen Ge and Sun Dianchen have been friends since they were young, but after studying, Sun Dianchen went to the battlefield, while Chen Ge embarked on the path of concentrating on practicing martial arts.
An old friend who rarely had the opportunity to get together came to the college early this morning and asked him to stare at a student who was applying for the exam. This made Chen Ge puzzled.
"What do you think of this person?" After looking at him for a long time, Sun Dianchen finally asked.
"A very outstanding young man." Chen Ge said casually.
"Just very good?" Sun Dianchen asked again.
"Otherwise? This kind of performance can't be called a genius." Chen Ge said: "There are at least 10,000 young people with such strength in the academy now."
It's not that Chen Ge meant to belittle Qin Xiao. As the vice president of Polu Academy, he had seen too many young geniuses.
What's more, Qin Xiao is only at the second level of Lianxing Realm. Chen Ge can't remember how many young geniuses he has seen at this age who perform better than him.
Seeing that Sun Dianchen didn't speak, Chen Ge asked curiously: "Is that why you came here today because of this young man?"
Sun Dianchen nodded and said, "Yes, just for him, I want to recruit him to serve in the military."
"What is there worth exploring about him?" Chen Ge was a little confused.
But for the sake of his long-time friend, Chen Ge still came up with an idea: "As long as he can be admitted to Polu Academy, I can allow him to retain his student status and go to the military department to help you. Or simply transfer him to the military department. , I’ll just give him special permission to retain some student privileges.”
"That's very good, very good." Sun Dianchen was so excited that he said something literate.
Chen Ge didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and asked: "Is it just for a young man who has cultivated in the Star Realm?"
"A few months ago, he was still in the Star Casting Realm." Sun Dianchen explained.
"Oh, that should be because he has experienced genetic alienation, and the alienation direction is very correct. It is normal for the cultivation level to explode when the Casting Star Realm advances to the Lianxing Realm." Chen Ge was still calm.
"You know that boy Heijin, he was defeated by Qin Xiao in the Songhua College entrance examination." Sun Dianchen said again.
Now Chen Ge finally became interested and said, "Oh? This is a bit interesting. Heijin hasn't lost since he came back, right?"
"Well, I lost to Qin Xiao once, and was beaten by Qin Xiao so much that I almost failed to pass the Songhua Academy exam." Sun Dianchen continued.
Chen Ge began to sit upright and quietly pressed a button.
"What are you doing?" Sun Dianchen noticed his little movement and asked.
"Nothing, just keep talking." Chen Ge said perfunctorily.
Sun Dianchen didn't think much and continued: "Does Xiao Zhuer know that her super power star pattern is actually defective? It was Qin Xiao who pointed out the problem and even helped to modify it."
Chen Gelao didn't speak for a long time. When Sun Dianchen looked at him, he discovered that he was secretly pressing buttons on the transmitter, as if he was sending a text message.
"The most important thing is that he created a new type of star pattern himself, called the Focus Star Pattern. It is said to have the ability to reduce star power consumption and speed up star power recovery."
"The design drawing of this star pattern has been bought by Bai Qi. It seems that Xiao Zhuer left after making the first finished product on Ellan Star."
"It's inconvenient to ask about this kind of thing even if I have a relationship with Bai Qi, so I want to recruit Qin Xiao under my command and study the star pattern carefully."
"If I guessed correctly, the finished star pattern should be in his genetic chain now."
After finally explaining Qin Xiao's situation clearly, Sun Dianchen asked: "By the way, what exactly are you going to do about transferring him to the military headquarters for me?"
Chen Ge had already put away the transmitter and asked with a confused expression: "What transfer to the military department? What did I promise you?"
