Chapter 4 Selection Walking on the path, looking at the family home that suddenly became much emptier, Xiao Yun had a bad , the Canaan College's admissions team will arrive in Wutan City. Judging from the situation, most of the family members are probably going to watch and participate in the selection. The Xiao family was like this, so it was estimated that the others were not so good either. Xiao Yun estimated that the square for the enrollment selection was probably already flooded by the excited crowd. …… He quickly ran towards the designated recruitment square of Canaan College. Although he had prepared himself mentally, when Xiao Yun arrived, he was still dumbfounded by the huge crowds of people that seemed to have no end in sight. "What are you doing here, crazy people? Will the difficulty be reduced if there are more people?" In the huge square, bursts of noise rose into the sky, and countless young people were desperately squeezing into the square. In the square, troops sent by the City Lord's Mansion were maintaining order, but because there were too many people, it was like scratching an itch and was of little use. Staring blankly at the sea of people, Xiao Yun sighed lightly. Looking at the situation, there was no chance of passing the test today. After walking around the huge square, Xiao Yun finally revisited the old place. Originally, he wanted to see if he could find the Xiao family's main force and follow it, but outside there were only fully armed troops and some ordinary people who were just joining in the fun, so there was no shortcut at all.
Xiao Yun didn't have the ability to ask the soldiers responsible for maintaining order to open a back door for him, so in the end he could only return to his original place. "Forget it, let's just use the stupid method and squeeze in honestly." Relying on his height advantage, Xiao Yun squeezed around the waists of the crowd for a long time before finally seeing the light of day with sweat all over his forehead. "Huh, they finally came out. These guys who come here to watch the fun are really great. They are squeezing together to watch the fun in such a hot day." Looking at the green tent not far away, Xiao Yun finally breathed a sigh of relief. The distance between the crowd and the tent was not short, with several passages in between. In the passages, young men who looked like trainees were holding fist-sized blue crystal balls and giving people tests. Xiao Yun walked straight towards a passage where there were not many people, and soon it was his turn to go forward for the test. Seeing Xiao Yun's childlike appearance, the male student who was taking the test was very curious. "Little boy, this is not a place to play games. This is the Canaan College admissions selection. Where are your family members? They will be worried if they can't find you." "Uh, I know, I'm here to test, and I'd like to ask this senior to test for me." Xiao Yun rolled his eyes silently. He was also suffering from his age. Anyone would think he was playing some childish game of house. "Then inject your fighting spirit into this test crystal. After injecting the fighting spirit, as long as your cultivation reaches the eighth stage of fighting spirit, the crystal will automatically light up, and you will have passed the preliminary test." The male student didn't believe what Xiao Yun said, but testing fighting spirit was not difficult, so he just played with the child in front of him for a while. "Hmm..." Xiao Yun nodded in understanding, stepped forward, stretched out his right hand and placed it on the crystal ball. After pausing for a moment, he waited until the crystal ball lit up before retracting his hand. Ah, it really lights up! The male student looked incredulous, wondering if the crystal ball in his hand was broken because too many people were testing it. "Wait a moment, I'll get another test crystal." Without waiting for Xiao Yun to answer, the male student turned around and ran quickly to the others and got another crystal ball. Xiao Yun did not say anything. He understood that the person in front of him could not accept that he could pass the test at such a young age. He silently put his hand on the crystal ball. After a moment, the crystal ball lit up again. "!" The male student's jaw almost dropped to the ground. He didn't understand why the gap between people was so big. After all, Xiao Yun was too young. When he was this age, he was still playing in the mud. "I have passed now, right?" Xiao Yun's voice woke him up. "I have passed, I have passed. Come in quickly." Xiao Yun nodded and walked slowly towards the tent. When he entered the big green tent, he saw more than a dozen men and women gathered in small circles and chatted with each other under the cool shade of the tent.
Outside the shadows, more than 20 young men and women were sitting on the ground under the scorching sun, sweat pouring down their faces due to the high temperature. However, their faces were full of restraint, and it seemed that they were freshmen who had just passed the external test. "Cousin Xiao Yun, come here!" One of the freshmen saw Xiao Yun coming and shouted in surprise. Looking over, he saw two young men dressed in Xiao family uniforms waving at him with sweat on their foreheads. These two people were the ones Xiao Yun saw on the training ground a few days ago and thought had a hope of passing the Canaan College admission test. Unexpectedly, both of them were lucky enough to join Canaan College. Their shouts undoubtedly attracted the attention of many people, and the freshmen looked at the rumored number one genius in Wutan City with curiosity. Ignoring the gazes of those people, Xiao Yun walked straight towards the two Xiao family members. "With so many people from the family here, are you two the only ones who passed the test?" It was not surprising that someone from the Xiao family passed the test, after all, they were one of the three major families in Wutan City. However, there were only two people who passed the test, which surprised Xiao Yun. The Xiao family's coming-of-age ceremony requires one to reach the seventh stage of fighting spirit at the age of sixteen. It's not surprising that no one under the age of sixteen passed, but it's a bit tragic that there were only two people over the age of sixteen. "We are the only two who have passed the test. However, there are some people in our family who have also met the requirements. However, they do not want to go to Canaan College, but instead go to other sects to practice." Xiao Yun nodded suddenly. Perhaps for many people, Canaan College was a holy place in their hearts, but there were always people who thought that practicing in a sect was better than in a college. Under the scorching sun, Xiao Yun sat on the ground, chatting with two of his fellow tribesmen. As time passed, the sun gradually moved to the sky directly above his head, and the number of freshmen waiting around increased by more than a dozen. After just chatting, Xiao Yun learned the names of these two fellow clansmen, Xiao Long and Xiao Hu. They are brothers. Xiao Long is one year older than Xiao Hu, but their cultivation levels are both at the ninth level of Dou Qi. The three of them got to know each other better, and Xiao Hu even dared to complain to Xiao Yun, "Damn it, these old students deliberately let us sunbathe here, and they didn't even come to take care of us." Xiao Yun glanced at Xiao Hu. He knew that this was an old tradition of Canaan College. Those who could reach the admission limit were generally young people with good talents. They should be pampered in their own little home and rarely be ridiculed or mocked. If one joins Canaan Academy, where there are many outstanding people, with this mentality, it is easy to get into trouble by fighting over a disagreement. Therefore, when recruiting students, senior students must let the new students know their own strengths and weaknesses, so as to wear down their fearlessness and avoid unnecessary troubles in the future. And what Xiao Yun and his friends are experiencing now is the process of wearing down their fearlessness. Xiao Yun personally didn't feel anything. Although this behavior was a bit excessive, he was not the kind of person who would go against everyone. As long as it wasn't specifically targeting him, he would be too lazy to take action. However, if there was some blind and unknown bully who asked him to slap him in the face, he would reluctantly smash the other person's face. Seeing Xiao Hu's dissatisfied expression, Xiao Yun smiled helplessly, "Just bear with it for a while. These old students just want to dampen our enthusiasm. We are not strong enough, so complaining is useless." "It's true that we are not strong enough. Cousin Xiao Yun, you are so talented. I believe you can beat those old students." When Xiao Yun heard Xiao Hu say this, he frowned, "Although I have good talent, I am young. What's the point of you believing in me? I don't even believe in myself." My God, he was only seven years old, and his cultivation was only a one-star fighter. Those older students had practiced in Canaan Academy for at least a year, and most of them had a cultivation base above one-star fighter. If he went over there and acted cool now, he would probably get beaten up. After hearing what Xiao Yun said, Xiao Hu lost his temper. Even the Xiao family's number one genius was willing to bask in the sun outside, so what else could he say? Fortunately, it didn’t take long before the senior students in the tent informed the freshmen that they could go in. The freshmen were all overjoyed when they heard the notice. They quickly got up from the ground, patted their butts and walked towards the tent. Xiao Yun also pulled Xiao Long and Xiao Hu into the tent. Although he didn't say anything just now, he was really feeling the heat. “Hahaha, it seems that this time, I really received a monster.
I was wondering if you would come directly to this tent, but I didn’t expect you to stay outside until now. You are very talented, but not arrogant or impatient. Not bad, not bad.” As soon as Xiao Yun entered the tent, he saw a burly, fat man looking at him as if he were a treasure. The students around him called him Instructor Xu Ning. "Hello, Teacher..." Seeing that he was staring at him, Xiao Yun couldn't pretend not to see it, so he nodded and greeted him politely. "Good, good, you are quite polite. Wait a moment, I will record your talent level." Xu Ning was very satisfied with Xiao Yun. He regarded it as a great advantage of a genius just by a simple polite greeting. I have to say that although Canaan College’s method of grinding down newcomers’ spirits is a bit excessive, it does have some effect. At least the freshmen, who were sweating profusely under the scorching sun, were much more restrained than when they first arrived. They all huddled in the shade of the tents and did not contradict their instructors. After everyone arrived, Instructor Xu Ning took out a parchment scroll and writing brush from his ring. “Dear students, congratulations on entering the gate of Canaan College. But before that, I need to know each of your real ages and cultivation levels, and divide your talent levels according to the potential values set by the academy." "Eighth stage fighting spirit, potential value is F level, this is the minimum standard to join Canaan College. The ninth level of fighting spirit, the potential value is E level, A one-star fighter has a potential value of D level, a two-star fighter has a potential value of C level, and so on. The highest level is a five-star fighter, with a potential value of S level! Of course, all these cultivation levels require you to be under 18 years old. " "The academy hasn't received any students with S-level potential for a long time. I have a feeling that one of you will become an S-level student!" After Xu Ning said this, he also looked at Xiao Yun. It was obvious that the S-level he was referring to was Xiao Yun. Sometimes age is really a huge plus. Xiao Yun was able to pass the test at such a young age, so his potential to become an S-level was almost a foregone conclusion. "Okay, now all of you line up and report your age and cultivation level one by one from left to right." Xu Ning stood in front of everyone and shouted loudly. "Wang Lin, age: 18, fighting spirit level 9." A thin young man at the head of the left row, with a flushed face, excitedly shouted out his age and cultivation level. Xu Ning nodded with a smile, and quickly wrote down the information of the student with his right hand, "E-level, keep practicing." "Lin Shan, age seventeen, fighting spirit level eight." "F-rated." "Heishi, age 18, fighting spirit level 9." "E-level." …… Most of the freshmen who passed the test had cultivation levels below that of fighters. Of course, there must be quite a few freshmen who originally had the ninth stage of Dou Qi cultivation, but were demoted to the eighth stage of Dou Qi due to their failure in becoming a Dou Master. It will soon be Xiao Yun's turn. Before him, the best was only a one-star fighter with a D-level potential value. The two brothers Xiao Long and Xiao Hu have also finished the test and both have E-level potential values. Xiao Yun was not planning to hide his strength. He knew that in Canaan College, the better the performance, the more resources he would get, so there was no need to hide his weaknesses. "Xiao Yun, age, seven years old, cultivation level, one-star fighter." As Xiao Yun's voice fell, everyone who heard it in the tent opened their mouths unconsciously and took a breath of cold air. Xu Ning was so overjoyed that he almost tore the brush in his hand. He originally thought that Xiao Yun was only at the ninth level of Dou Qi at most, and he would have to wait until he entered Canaan College to break through to the Dou level. Unexpectedly, he had already broken through and consolidated his position as a one-star fighter. Xu Ning lowered his head and stared at Xiao Yun with eyes that were even more fiery than before.
He really found a treasure this time. Xiao Yun is such a genius, and his superiors will definitely reward him when he returns to the academy. "Okay, okay, a seven-year-old fighter with S-level potential!" Xu Ning smiled from ear to ear. After everyone's information was collected, Instructor Xu Ning asked everyone to go home, enjoy their last leisure time, and say goodbye to their families. Everyone will gather here again three days later, and Canaan Academy’s exclusive magic beasts will come to pick them up to take them to Canaan Academy. (End of this chapter)
