On this day, the Daozong people finally arrived at Huangtian City. As soon as they entered the city, they immediately attracted the attention of countless people.
After hearing the news, many people went to watch, wanting to see how many people the Dao Sect sent to fight back against the royal family. The lineup would definitely not be weak, otherwise they would be humiliating themselves.
Just as those people thought, this time there were dozens of disciples from the Dao Sect, all of whom were cabinet disciples. They were considered the elite among the disciples of the Dao Sect, and each one of them was a leader in their field.
They only did one thing when they came down the mountain this time, which was to rectify the name of Daozong.
After entering the city, the Dao Sect crowd came to the core area under the gaze of countless people, and settled in a magnificent restaurant.
Their whereabouts were completely transparent, without any secrets, and everyone could see them clearly.
Many people understood that Daozong was announcing to the world that they acted openly and without any shady behavior.
In this way, the royal family would not be able to do anything to them.
Although the royal family and Daozong are now in a hostile relationship, almost all the people who come here are disciples of Daozong. If the royal family does not even have this kind of magnanimity, it will make everyone in the world laugh at it, and the reputation that Huangtian Academy has accumulated in the past few months will plummet. .
Therefore, as long as Dao Sect disciples do not do anything inappropriate, they will definitely be safe.
In the Tianzi room of the restaurant, Jian Jin and Huo Yun stood by the window, their eyes casually scanning the surrounding buildings, not knowing what they were looking at.
"There are more than a dozen hidden whistles. They really treat us as thieves." Huo Yun said coldly and sarcastically.
"Our whereabouts must have reached Qi Yue's ears. We need to remain highly vigilant. We will start recruiting students in two days. Please ask the disciples not to leave the restaurant for these two days to avoid any unexpected events." Jian Jin's face was solemn.
"Yeah." Huo Yun nodded.
...
Deep in the Imperial Academy, a towering building stands on the ground, very majestic.
In the palace on the top floor of the building, many figures were discussing matters. The person sitting on the main seat was the dean Qi Huan, and four other ministers including Fengyun Zhizun were also present. They are now the deputy deans of the academy.
Except for the five of them, the others are the elders and teachers of the academy, all of them are middle-grade supreme ones.
This class of teachers can be said to be very powerful.
"The Daozong people have entered the city, and now everyone is paying attention to their every move." A middle-aged man said, his expression a bit solemn.
"They clearly want to cause trouble at the admissions ceremony. If they succeed, not to mention the reputation of the academy being damaged, the regent's enthronement ceremony will also be affected. This is related to the face of the royal family."
"Then what can be done? Now that everyone in the world knows that Dao Sect disciples are here to receive advice, can't we drive them away?" A person next to him asked. If he did this, it would be really embarrassing.
"Even if we don't drive them away, we still can't comply with their wishes. If something goes wrong, the consequences will be disastrous."
"This is our territory. They can come and learn from us, but they must follow our rules."
"enough."
A majestic voice came out, and the space instantly became quiet. Everyone looked at Qi Huan, and saw that there was no wave on his face. He said: "Everyone knows that the royal family wants to build the academy into a holy place for preaching. Now Dao Sect disciples Come and learn from us, this is a great opportunity for the academy to make its name known.”
Everyone's expressions condensed at the same time, and they naturally understood the meaning of Qi Huan's words, which was his intention to accept the challenge from the Dao Sect disciples.
"Now we don't know the level of our disciples. If we lose, the situation will be embarrassing." The Supreme Being on the other side said.
"Enrollment will begin tomorrow. Only twenty people will be admitted. After entering the academy, they will become core disciples. They can choose teachers independently and enjoy the highest level of resource treatment." Qi Huan said calmly: "There is only one day. After tomorrow, there will be no more admissions within a year. Core disciple."
Obviously, this was a countermeasure that Qi Yue had thought of long ago.
Everyone's eyes were filled with light. This was indeed a good idea.
The quotas for the core disciples will be released first, and those with outstanding talents will inevitably rush to sign up first. After all, the quotas are very few, and there is only one day. No one is willing to wait another year.
Nowadays, there are so many geniuses in Huangtian City, and the twenty people who stand out must be very powerful. Even if the disciples of Dao Sect who come to teach are all geniuses, they will not be able to take advantage.
As long as this battle is won, the academy will be able to overthrow the Taoist sect and become a new holy place for preaching.
"Without further delay, let's go and spread the news now, and also order people to hold twenty battle stages in the academy to prepare for tomorrow's competition." Qi Huan said.
"As ordered." The elders replied one after another, and then left the hall, except Fengyun Supreme and the other four people who did not leave.
"Yang Jiuxiao is really confident. He sent these disciples here to stir up trouble. Do you really think that we are vegetarians?" Tianlei Supreme sneered: "If we are defeated, the Dao Sect will lose its hundreds of thousands of years of face."
"You are wrong." Qi Huan spat out a voice.
Supreme Heavenly Thunder looked startled, was he wrong?
"He asked these disciples to come here firstly to make us feel uncomfortable, secondly to show the world that Daozong is vigorous and will not surrender to the royal family, and thirdly to take this opportunity to train those disciples. Regardless of the final victory or defeat, his purpose is Reached."
Qi Huan spoke slowly. He and Yang Jiuxiao had known each other since they were young, and they knew his character very well. Victory or defeat was not important in Yang Jiuxiao's heart.
To be fair, Yang Jiuxiao is a respectable opponent, but it is a pity that their positions are different and they can only fight against each other.
Yang Jiuxiao is the leader of the Dao Sect, and he is now the dean of Huangtian Academy. The competition between them is no longer a battle of personal strength, but has risen to a competition between two preaching forces.
He had never lost to Yang Jiuxiao before, and he would not lose to Yang Jiuxiao this time either.
Not long after, the academy released the news of recruiting core disciples in advance. As soon as the news came out, Huangtian City immediately boiled.
The academy had previously released news that it would officially enroll students in two days. Today, it suddenly decided to enroll students in advance and only recruit core disciples. The intention of doing so was well known to all, in order to cope with the challenges from Dao Sect disciples.
For a time, countless young talents in Huangtian City were eager to take part in tomorrow's admissions assessment.
There are only twenty core disciples, and the next batch will have to wait until a year later. It can be seen that the core disciples have a high status in the academy. If they become a core disciple, they will not only get the top cultivation resources, but also have a bright future.
After all, the academy is backed by the royal family. As long as the academy's outstanding disciples are willing, they will definitely be cultivated by the royal family. If they have outstanding performance, they may even be granted a title and become a prominent person.
Of course, the prerequisite is to become a core disciple.
There are countless powerful people in Huangtian City today. You can imagine how difficult it is to get one of the twenty places among them!
