Chapter 2341: Chapter 2345: Surviving Amidst Slaughter

”The review is over!”

Outside the Demonic Beast Forest, as Elder Zhu’s shout echoed, everyone fixed their eyes on him.

”First place in this entrance examination, Jiang Chen from Changlin Academy, with 17,352 points!”

”Second place, Sang Zhirou from Changlin Academy, with 16,000...”

”Third place, Jian Wuheng from Changlin Academy, with 14,000...”

”Fourth place, Sun Qianshan from Changhe Academy, with 10,300 points.”

”Fifth place, Yun Tao from Changlin Academy...”

”Sixth place, Sang Zhenglong from Changlin Academy...”

”Seventh place, Feng Qingyang from Fengchen Academy, with 576 points.”

”Eighth place, Mu Ling’er from Changhe Academy, with 557 points.”

”Ninth place, Zhang Tian from Qing Hai Academy...”

”Tenth place, Zhang Lin from Qing Hai Academy...”

With Elder Zhu’s announcement, all the academies’ elders and students, even if they already had predictions, still felt a heavy jolt in their hearts.

This time, Changlin Academy could be said to have thoroughly made a name for itself. Five out of the top six in the entrance examination were from Changlin Academy, and the top three were all from Changlin Academy, an unprecedented event in the history of Changling Main Court!

However, there was a shortcoming, as the fourth place was taken by an unknown person.

”Changhe Academy? Is that the small academy established by the coast?”

”That small academy seems to have fewer than a hundred people including both teachers and students, yet it can cultivate such outstanding students?!”

”This small academy actually has two people who made it into the top ten? What’s going on?”

Everyone looked towards the edges, where Changhe Academy, which was among the lowest of the primary academies, had Sun Qianshan and Mu Ling’er’s rankings causing widespread surprise.

Jiang Chen also followed everyone’s gaze and looked over. When he saw two familiar figures standing in front of Changhe Academy’s elder, he was slightly startled.

He had seen Sun Changlin and Mu Ling’er before, one had helped him eliminate the guys who bullied Sang Zhirou, and the other was the girl he saved from being chased by a group of Forest Wolves.

This girl is not simple!

Jiang Chen murmured inwardly. To have cultivated to the Late Divine Infant Realm at such an age, her talent could indeed be called genius, and her score of over 500 points, is this from killing five peak fifth-grade demonic beasts?

It seems this girl can’t be judged by appearance alone!

While paying attention to Mu Ling’er, Jiang Chen also noticed Sun Changlin, with a score of 10,300, which means he also killed three beasts one level above him. To be able to surpass his level and defeat a fellow human cultivator was already quite impressive, but to surpass his level and defeat demonic beasts generally stronger than human cultivators in the same realm, this person’s combat power is worthy of attention!

The elder of Changhe Academy had an irrepressible sparkle on his face, looking at Sun Changlin in front of him with satisfaction. This was a student cultivated by their own academy, as for Mu Ling’er...

Looking at Mu Ling’er and the girl beside her, Changhe Academy’s elder’s eyes showed a trace of respect. These two were simply borrowing the path of Changhe Academy; they couldn’t possibly cultivate such extraordinary students!

Others might not be very clear, but this leading elder of Changhe Academy knew very well. The strength of this pair of sisters was not as simple as it seemed!

”All students whose names were called, keep your Identity Jade Tokens safe.”

After Elder Zhu recited the names of the top 500 students, he stopped the recitation, raised his hand, and a rainbow of light flew towards the students standing at the forefront.

The named students caught the flying Identity Jade Tokens with excited expressions. With this token, they had the pass to enter the Changling Main Court, equivalent to qualifying for the enormous cultivation resources of Changling Main Court!

Those eliminated could only watch those rainbow lights with a look of despair and dissatisfaction in their hearts.

Catching the flying token, Jiang Chen played with it for a moment, a strange glint flashing in his eyes.

The front of the token was engraved with the words ’Changling,’ and the back was a painting composed of nine small patterns, featuring mountains, rivers, starlight, breeze...

These nine patterns represented the Seven Fundamental Great Paths and the Two Fundamental Extreme Paths.

What puzzled Jiang Chen was the token’s faint mysterious vibration.

Is this... a formation?

His eyes slightly changed, Jiang Chen extended his Divine Sense to probe the token.

Buzz!

A faint mysterious light emerged from the token, blocking Jiang Chen’s Divine Sense from entering.

Jiang Chen was slightly stunned, raised an eyebrow, and prepared to gather a more powerful Divine Sense to probe the token again.

At this moment, a hearty laugh rang out.

”Haha, don’t be too eager to study this Identity Jade Token yet, students.”

Ouyang Song smiled and spoke: ”This Identity Jade Token is temporary. The reason it’s temporary is that you’ve only passed the preliminary examination; another test awaits you!”

”Another test!?”

”Why is there more?”

”Isn’t it the entrance competition after this?”

”What’s going on?”

The students all looked at Ouyang Song with surprise.

”This year’s examination, due to certain reasons, will be different. The added test will evaluate your combat capabilities, and you’ll find out the content shortly!”

Ouyang Song explained softly: ”The academy added this test in preparation for a major event a year from now. Usually, the students we recruit go directly from primary academy to the main court without much experience. But this time, we need students who can hold their own and survive in battles.”

”Survive in battles!?”

All the students’ faces changed, showing astonishment in their eyes.

Among the elders of various academies, someone seemed to realize something, their eyes showing a trace of shock, followed by deep resentment and worry.

Hearing Ouyang Song’s words, Jiang Chen immediately thought of something.

This test is likely to see who is suitable for the extraterrestrial battlefield, isn’t it?

Five years is the selection cycle for Changling Main Court, and the outer court changes every five years too. Either enter the inner court or leave the academy; that’s why they choose people from the newly admitted students, right?

”Of course, this test is not mandatory. If any students wish to refuse, they can simply return their Identity Jade Tokens!”

Return?

Those who passed the examination were momentarily stunned, then gripped their tokens tighter.

Are you kidding? After finally passing the test, how could one possibly return it? Returning it would mean giving up the qualification to train in the main court, wouldn’t it?

Jiang Chen rolled his eyes at this proposition, wondering if anyone would give up.

Ouyang Song’s so-called choice was no choice at all!
