"Hey, isn't this the guy who was crying his heart out after losing the election just now? Why are you back again? "
And you still have a smile on your lips, looking so confident?" What's going on? Could this guy really be crazy? "
Who knows? Every time there was an assessment, there were quite a few people like this; they were long used to it. Some people said with mocking expressions.
But unexpectedly, his words already told others that he had failed many times.
The group was too long, stretching hundreds of miles. If it were the Tianwu Continent, Long Chen would have arrived in just one step, but here, he had traveled for nearly half an hour.
Moreover, walking too fast, Long Chen clearly felt a bit out of breath, his chest aching dullly, forcing him to slow down.
He had just flown to the Immortal Realm, and his aura hadn't yet transformed. After inhaling too much immortal spiritual energy, he began to feel unwell.
But soon, Long Chen saw a huge plaque ahead—a jade token over three zhang tall, shimmering with flowing light. Long Chen slowly placed his large hand on it.
This was the jade token for recruiting disciples at Lingxiao Academy. All the standards were on it; you just needed to press your hand on it to get all the information.
Long Chen happened to see someone and asked him how to register. The person told him about the existence of the jade token.
"Buzz"—
As Long Chen's hand pressed down, a flood of information flooded his mind, and countless words were imprinted in his mind.
"They actually teach immortal scripts, and it's free?" This move. Long Chen couldn't help but sigh. You have to understand, on the Tianwu Continent, this kind of soul transmission consumes a lot of energy.
Generally, this kind of soul transmission is only used for important inheritances to avoid omissions, but a single transmission can bankrupt most sects.
Here, this soul transmission is like it's free—you can read it freely, not only can you learn the registration rules, but even basic immortal texts are included for free.
Immortal scripts differ greatly from those of the Tianwu Continent. Immortal scripts evolved from immortal scripts, each imbued with the charm of the Immortal Dao. When a large amount of immortal scripts were recognized, Long Chen even felt his body slowly adapting to the surrounding immortal spiritual energy. The marvel was truly astonishing.
However, these ancient immortal texts are all basic, so they are included for free, allowing people to learn about the history, heritage, heritage, and rules of Lingxiao Academy.
However, these introductions are quite general, with only the registration rules being very detailed. Here, the recruitment assessment is held once every thirty years. Anyone under three hundred years old whose cultivation has reached the peak of the Transformation Realm can take the assessment.
Long Chen didn't understand what the Mortal Shedding Realm meant, but seeing that most of the people lining up had reached the thirteenth level of Fusion Heaven, he figured the Mortal Shedding Realm must be the Fusion Heaven Realm from Tianwu Continent.
"Transforming from mortal to immortal and ascending to the previous realm should be like this. The immortal spirit energy here—if a Tongming Realm expert comes up and is struck by the immortal spirit's energy, they might die instantly." Long Chen pondered in his mind.
A standard of three hundred years is almost unbelievable on the Tianwu Continent, but in the Immortal Realm, it seems quite ordinary.
But thinking about it, the Fusion Heaven Realm is already a top-tier powerhouse on the Tianwu Continent, yet here it can only be considered an entry-level assessment, so he let it go.
The Lingxiao Academy assessments include dozens of tests such as entrance exams, ranking tests, and specialized exams. Only after passing multiple rounds of screening can one qualify as disciples of Lingxiao Academy. It can be said that the assessment is extremely rigorous.
Long Chen glanced back at the endless queue, then at the slow pace, feeling uneasy—the wait time seemed a bit too long.
"Beautiful lady, may I ask how long you've been waiting in line here?" Long Chen approached the side of the team and asked a gentle-looking woman.
Perhaps because Long Chen was so sweet-talking, the woman happily said, "I've been waiting in line here for three months. I guess in another half month, it will be my turn."
Brother, you're an ascender from the lower realm, right? If you ascend to the top, you definitely won't have any immortal crystals. How about I lend you some? You can also line up and sign up." The
woman looked kind-hearted but was kind-hearted, and could tell that Long Chen carried a heavy layer of worldly energy, so he probably wasn't born in the Immortal Realm.
People who ascend to the lower realm are all extremely poor. The things they bring are all worthless. Seeing Long Chen dressed very shabby and his clothes torn in many places, she couldn't help but feel compassion and wanted to help him.
When the woman said this, many people turned to look at him. After all, the assessment fees at Lingxiao Academy were quite high, and the woman was strangers to Long Chen, yet she was willing to give him a large sum of money.
"Thank you, sister. I'm just asking, I haven't planned to take the assessment yet." Long Chen said gratefully.
"You don't need to take the assessment anymore. With your character, you won't even pass. You'd better not waste those immortal crystals." One person sneered.
Whether out of jealousy or simply looking down on people from the lower realm, this person was extremely unfriendly to Long Chen.
"You..."
The woman's expression darkened slightly. She was willing to help Long Chen, but being interrupted by someone made her angry.
"Sister, forget it. Arguing with such a trash person will ruin your status." Long Chen smiled and advised. He had seen enough idiots like this and couldn't be bothered to argue with him.
But these three and a half months of waiting were already deadly. He didn't have time to waste, so Long Chen was thinking about how to get directly into Lingxiao Academy.
"Who are you calling trash? You lowly bastard from the lower realm..." The man was furious at being insulted, pointing at Long Chen and cursing loudly.
"Smack!"
Long Chen didn't hesitate at all. He slapped the man hard, half his face exploded, blood splattered, and he was knocked dozens of yards away, while half of his teeth spilled through the air.
The people around were shocked. Long Chen looked refined and destitute, but this move was truly ruthless.
"People from the Immortal Realm really are different. I was just worried a slap would kill him." Long Chen himself was startled; the slap was instinctive, barely managing to pull back half his strength.
But even so, the power was astonishing. Yet this person's face was shattered and teeth knocked out, but the bones on his face remained intact and were not shattered. This made Long Chen marvel at how formidable the bodies of people in the Immortal Realm truly are.
"You..."
The man roared, standing up to charge at Long Chen, but as soon as he got up, he spun around and collapsed again, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Long Chen's slap had left him with internal injuries. Driven by rage, he used his strength, his blood surging so high that he nearly fainted.
"Who is making a fuss here?"
At that moment, two disciples from Lingxiao Academy, clad in silver armor and wielding long spears, walked over.
Long Chen's heart tightened. These two exuded a strong aura of divine power, rivaling even the middle-aged man among the Nine Nether Hunters.
Even the disciples guarding the gate possess such formidable cultivation; Lingxiao Academy truly is formidable.
"I asked around, he scolded me, and then I slapped him." Long Chen shrugged and spoke before the man could speak.
The man in battle armor frowned slightly, glanced at Long Chen, then at the other man, and said coldly, "
You two have been stripped of your qualification for the assessment."
"This is unfair," the man shouted.
