I created an extraordinary era

Chapter 541 The Eleventh Year of the Extraordinary Era: The Three Extraordinary Academies Open!
The 11th year of the Extraordinary Era.

1 month 1 day.

Humanity has officially entered the second decade of the extraordinary era.

On this day, everyone who scored over 1235 points went to the three extraordinary academies to prepare for the assessment.

For example, Shen Jun, Lin Yue, and others who previously failed the Origin Academy's assessment.

And naturally, they chose Lingxiao Academy.

The number of students who came to Lingxiao Academy for the assessment this time is nearly a thousand.

Eighty percent of them are from twenty extraordinary universities in Kyushu.

At Jiangcheng Chaofan University, for example, more than seventy people qualified for the assessment this time.

Kyoto Extraordinary University has nearly 120 students.

Haicheng Extraordinary University is similar to Jiangcheng Extraordinary University.

It can be said that these three schools account for one-third of the list in Kyushu.

As for the remaining 20%, it comes from other forces in the surrounding area.

Of these thousands of people, only one hundred will ultimately be able to successfully enter Lingxiao Academy.

A one in ten probability is not small.

"That's Lingxiao Academy?"

In the distance, gazing at the faintly visible cluster of buildings, everyone held their breath.

The buildings possess both the classical Eastern features of upturned eaves and corners, and a futuristic feel that transcends modern technology, gleaming with a faint bluish-gold light in the morning glow.

Judging from these buildings alone, Lingxiao Academy is even more impressive than Origin Academy.

Actually this is normal.

After all, the Origin Academy was built more than a decade ago, and the level of technology at that time was incomparable to that of today.

Therefore, Lingxiao Academy is naturally better built.

"Old Zhou, why are you only arriving now?"

Just then, a voice suddenly came from afar.

Zhou Qiyuan turned his head and looked.

The visitor was Ji Yanfeng from Tiannan Chaofan University.

At this point, Ji Yanfeng had made significant progress compared to a year ago.

His robust qi and blood clearly indicated that he had reached at least the second level of Body Tempering.

As for whether it is the second or third stage of body tempering, it is impossible to tell without engaging in combat.

"What's the rush? The assessment hasn't even started yet!"

Zhou Qiyuan smiled, then looked at the people behind him and continued:

"Your Tiannan Extraordinary University has quite a few people qualified for the assessment this time!"

There were indeed quite a few people from Tiannan Chaofan University this time, more than fifty in total.

It has only about ten fewer students than Jiangcheng Chaofan University.

That's already pretty good!

Most other schools only have around thirty students.

"What's the use of having a large number of people? In the end, it all comes down to how many people can pass the test!"

Ji Yanfeng's words were a double entendre.

After all, there were more people from Jiangcheng Chaofan University than they were.

It would be interesting if those who passed the assessment turned out to be inferior to Tiannan Chaofan University!

"Speaking of which, how is your cultivation level now?"

"I heard that that crazy woman Zhu Wanqin broke through to the fourth level of Body Tempering not long ago, and she might be close to the fifth level now!"

Ji Yanfeng has only just entered the third stage of Body Tempering. It will probably take him at least half a year to break through to the fourth stage.

There was no other way; breaking through to the third level of Body Tempering in a year had already used up most of his contribution points.

Currently, the contribution points are only enough to maintain the most basic cultivation, and cannot be used to purchase any cultivation resources.

Moreover, this is only now; the cultivation speed will only slow down in the future.

At this rate, it's almost impossible for him to become a grandmaster in the future, and even becoming a primordial master is highly unlikely.

Unfortunately, he can only earn thirty contribution points a year.

When I was just an ordinary person, I thought thirty contribution points were a lot.

It wasn't until he became a superhuman that he realized that thirty contribution points a year were simply not enough.

"Fifth level of Body Tempering?"

Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Zhou Qiyuan's eyes.

Breaking through four levels in less than a year and a half is not just due to talent.

Most importantly, there needs to be sufficient resources.

He himself had just broken through to the fourth level of Body Tempering before he came.

Moreover, this was all thanks to the help Miao Danqiu had given her previously.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible to cultivate so quickly.

However, Miao Danqiu herself, as a grandmaster, has a greater need for resources.

Therefore, Zhou Qiyuan did not receive much help.

“Yes, Zhu Wanqin is different from us.”

"Her student, Fang Yuanhang, has now become a top grandmaster at the fourth level of the Transcendent Realm."

"Even within the Origin Academy, he would be considered one of the top geniuses."

"With a student like that helping her, it would be difficult for her to cultivate slowly."

At this point, a hint of envy flashed in Ji Yanfeng's eyes.

If he had such a background, he might really have a chance to become a grandmaster in the future.

Unfortunately, although three people from Tiannan Chaofan University became Grandmasters, they were no match for Fang Yuanhang.

Those people's performance at Origin Academy was only average, and they didn't even have enough cultivation resources for themselves.

Let alone help him in any way!

The only person who helped him was Lü Ruobing, who had just entered the Origin Academy last year.

Thinking of Lü Ruobing, Ji Yanfeng felt a surge of pride.

Last month, news came back that Lü Ruobing had mastered the Law Intent and had even reached the fifth level of Body Tempering.

To comprehend the essence of laws before becoming a Grandmaster is enough to be considered a genius, even within the Origin Academy!

While the two were chatting...

People from Kyoto Extraordinary University and Kaijo Extraordinary University also arrived here one after another.

Zhou Qiyuan narrowed his eyes slightly.

Even from a distance, he could sense the immense aura emanating from Zhu Wanqin.

That's definitely not the strength of a fourth-level Body Tempering cultivator.

"Fifth level of Body Tempering!"

The two exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes.

Zhu Wanqin had actually broken through to the fifth level of Body Tempering.

This cultivation speed is a bit too exaggerated.

It should be noted that Zhu Wanqin has only been cultivating for a year and a half.

It's easy to imagine how much help Fang Yuanhang provided her.

In fact, the two were not wrong.

Fang Yuanhang did indeed provide Zhu Wanqin with considerable help this year, with the total amount reaching as much as one hundred contribution points.

Of course, this contribution is not much for Fang Yuanhang.

Although he was only at the fourth level of the Transcendent Realm.

However, the contribution points they can obtain each year are at least 600, which is no less than that of a Grandmaster at the fifth level of the Transcendent Realm.

However, Fang Yuanhang is not among the high-ranking members of Lingxiao Academy.

It wasn't that Origin Academy didn't choose him, but rather that Fang Yuanhang himself refused!

Becoming a high-ranking member of Lingxiao Academy means gaining access to more resources and greater power.

But you'll also face even more trivial matters.

In comparison, he still preferred the training environment at Origin Academy.

Moreover, given Fang Yuanhang's talent, even if he doesn't become a high-ranking member of Lingxiao Academy, he will still receive just as many resources.

Soon.

People from other extraordinary universities also arrived at Lingxiao Academy one after another.

A large crowd of people stood in the square in front of the college.

Many of the trainees looked extremely excited.

Although Lingxiao Academy is not as good as Origin Academy, as long as you can enter, you can still become an extraordinary person.

They've waited too long for this day!

"Quiet!"

Sudden.

A loud voice echoed across the square.

Everyone immediately stopped talking.

Looking up, five people dressed in blue robes appeared on the platform.

The man in the lead looked to be in his early twenties, with a resolute face and piercing eyes.

"Hello everyone, I am Wan Chen, the dean of Lingxiao Academy."

The man's voice was booming.

He didn't use any amplification equipment, but everyone present could hear him clearly.

"That's the dean of Lingxiao Academy?"

On the other side, the mentors who led the team, including Zhou Qiyuan, had all heard of this name.

However, they had only heard about it.

This is the first time I've seen the dean's face.

"It is said that Dean Wan is extremely strong, even among the top experts in Origin Academy."

"And look at the one to his left, that's Vice Dean Su Ze, who is also extremely strong."

Among the crowd, some people who knew the inside story were whispering among themselves.

"Isn't that obvious? People who can become the dean and vice dean of the Extraordinary Academy can't be weak."

Zhu Wanqin's eyes flickered.

She had previously heard Fang Yuanhang say that those who were qualified to serve as dean or vice dean had to have reached at least the fifth level of the Transcendent Realm.

Even Fang Yuanhang held Dean Wan in high esteem.

This person may not be the most talented, but he has a very strong will.

Most importantly, Wan Chen has almost no vested interests with other people at the Origin Academy.

This is why the higher-ups at Origin Academy chose him to serve as the dean of Lingxiao Academy.

"Now, the assessment will officially begin."

Just as everyone was whispering about Wan Chen, he finished explaining the assessment rules.

It's almost exactly the same as Origin Academy.

The only difference is that there is a practical assessment component.

However, the practical assessment does not affect the number of students admitted to the academy; it is merely a test following the assessment.

This is true not only for Lingxiao Academy, but also for the other two academies.

After all, practical combat ability will be one of the most important indicators for entering the Origin Academy in the future.

Therefore, the three extraordinary academies also focus on cultivating students' practical combat abilities.

At that time, these students will need to go to the Hundred Thousand Mountains behind Lingxiao Academy every year for training.

The number of monsters in the Ten Thousand Mountains is now quite large!

However, its overall strength is not as good as that of the Emerald Islands.

Most of the monsters here are still at the second or third level of Body Tempering.

Those who reach the fourth level of body tempering are extremely rare.

As for the Innate Realm, there isn't one at all.

Such an environment is precisely suitable for students in the Body Tempering Realm to train.

The assessment is now complete.

About half an hour later.

Wan Chen began announcing the list of the first batch of students from Lingxiao Academy who had passed the assessment.

[First Place: Kyoto Extraordinary University, Shi Tianrui]

[Second Place: Kyoto Extraordinary University, Sun Yao]

[Third Place: Jiangcheng Extraordinary Academy, Shen Jun]

[Fourth Place: Lei Zeyang, Haicheng Chaofan University]

[Fifth Place: Tiannan Chaofan University, Shu Hao]

[Sixth Place: Kyoto Extraordinary University...]

……

[Eighth Place: Jiangcheng Chaofan University, Lin Yue]

[73rd Place: Jiangcheng Chaofan University, Sun Yaoyang]

[Rank 100: Lin Xiaowei, Haima Extraordinary University]

Soon, Wan Chen finished announcing the entire list.

Kyoto Chaofan University has three students in the top ten.

Moreover, they even took the top two spots.

It's safe to say that it truly deserves to be called the strongest university on Earth.

"Hahaha, I passed! I passed!"

In the crowd, Sun Yaoyang was overjoyed when he heard his name on the list of those who had passed the assessment.

Although it was only seventy-third place.

He would be very satisfied if he could pass the assessment!

After all, the only difference between first place and last place is whether or not they receive a reward.

The top ten in this assessment will receive rewards from Lingxiao Academy.

Of course, there are definitely not as many as at Origin Academy.

The first place winner receives 10 contribution points, the second place winner receives 8 contribution points, and the third place winner receives 5 contribution points.

As for the next four to tenth places, they all have two contribution points.

"Eight people passed the assessment? That's not bad!"

On the viewing platform, Zhou Qiyuan nodded in satisfaction.

The number of students who passed the assessment at Jiangcheng Extraordinary University was only 13 fewer than the number who passed at Kyoto Extraordinary University.

As for Haicheng Chaofan University, it has 6 students, which is 2 fewer than Jiangcheng Chaofan University.

Tiannan Chaofan University has 5 students.

"Zheng Xiang, how come your Haicheng Extraordinary University was outdone by Jiangcheng Extraordinary University again this time?"

"In my opinion, your ranking will probably drop to third place this year!"

"Hmph, you don't need to worry about it."

Upon hearing Ji Yanfeng's words, Zheng Xiang's expression turned extremely ugly.

Last year, none of them passed the Origin Academy's assessment, so they just gave up.

Unexpectedly, it still falls short of Jiangcheng Chaofan University this year.

As a result, it is indeed possible that Haicheng Extraordinary University will be surpassed by Jiangcheng Extraordinary University this year.

At that time, the bonuses these teachers receive will also decrease accordingly.

For martial arts instructors, bonuses are a form of contribution.

This will have a significant impact on his cultivation.

In contrast, Tiannan Chaofan University.

They've been in fourth place for the past few years, so they don't really care.

Moreover, although their results this time were not as good as those of Haicheng Chaofan University, the difference was not significant.

Once the resources of Haicheng Chaofan University decrease, they may have a chance to surpass their opponent in the future.

Therefore, Ji Yanfeng was naturally in a good mood.

Zhu Wanqin, who was sitting to the side, ignored the argument between the two.

For her, whoever comes in second will not affect Kyoto Extraordinary University.

And at this time.

The people in the academy square had different expressions; those who passed the test were naturally full of excitement.

Of course, people like Shen Jun and Lin Yue remained very calm.

After all, this isn't the Origin Academy.

Passing the Lingxiao Academy's assessment is nothing to be happy about.

Just then, Wan Chen on the stage continued:

"Alright, let's begin the practical assessment."

"While the results of this assessment won't eliminate anyone, they will determine how resources you receive after entering the academy."

"So I hope that each of you will take this seriously."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately stopped smiling.

Entering Lingxiao Academy is just the first step.

The real starting point is now.

No one is willing to simply become an ordinary superhuman.

They also dreamed of becoming grandmasters, great grandmasters, or even stronger masters one day.

If they can have a good starting point, their chances of becoming strong in the future will undoubtedly be greater.

Perhaps one day I will be able to enter the Origin Academy.

……

While the practical assessment was underway below, the academy's senior management and instructors on the stage were also discussing among themselves.

"The seedlings this time are all quite good; the number of level five martial artists has exceeded twenty."

"Moreover, according to the information I have, some people had already become level 5 martial artists a year ago."

Suddenly, a high-ranking academy member at the fourth level of the Transcendent Realm looked at Wan Chen and asked:

"Dean, who do you think can be the number one in the practical assessment?"

Wan Chen's gaze swept over the students present, then he spoke in a deep voice:
"It seems that the one named Shen Jun is the strongest so far."

"Next are Shi Tianrui, Lei Zeyang, and Lin Yue."

Shen Jun?
Everyone followed the gaze.

On the martial arts arena in the center of the square, the battle between Shen Jun and his opponent has reached a fever pitch.

The two figures clashed, their fists and feet striking each other with dull thuds.

His current opponent is also a level 5 martial artist, but he is clearly at a disadvantage when facing Shen Jun.

They'll probably be defeated in less than ten moves.

"Shen Jun has a very solid foundation, and none of his movements are overly fancy."

A mentor dressed in a dark blue robe commented.

"It's clear that the martial arts teacher who taught this person at Jiangcheng Extraordinary University must have a lot of practical experience."

"Indeed."

Another female instructor at the third stage of the Transcendent Realm nodded in agreement.

"Moreover, his grasp of timing is remarkably precise, as you can see."

Before he finished speaking, Shen Jun on the stage suddenly changed his move. His straight punches suddenly turned into tricky angles, and he delivered a chop to his opponent's neck.

The level 5 martial artist hastily dodged, but fell right into the trap set by Shen Jun.

next moment.

Shen Jun's fist stopped firmly three inches in front of his opponent's throat.

"Concession."

Shen Jun withdrew from his stance, stepped back, and bowed with his hands clasped in greeting.

The opponent shook his head with a wry smile:

"My skills are inferior to others."

On the high platform, the academy's senior members, who were at the fourth level of the Transcendent Realm, looked at Wan Chen.

"The dean has a good eye; this Shen Jun is indeed extraordinary."

"This person is indeed good, but he participated in the Origin Academy's assessment last year!"

“What a pity!”

One of the mentors couldn't help but sigh.

With Shen Jun's strength and talent, if he hadn't participated in the Origin Academy's assessment last year, his chances of entering the Origin Academy later would have been very high.

But now, no matter how talented you are, you can't get in!

For the three extraordinary academies, the number of students entering the Origin Academy is also related to the resources they can obtain.

The more students from Lingxiao Academy enter the Origin Academy, the more contribution points they will be able to obtain.

The competition among the three extraordinary academies is equally fierce.

"It's alright. Even if they can't get into the Origin Academy, such a genius is still worth our great efforts to cultivate."

"As long as he can grow and develop, he will be of great help to the academy in the future."

On the other side, Su Ze smiled and shook his head.

Wan Chen nodded slightly.

"That's right! We are cultivating geniuses for the entire human race."

"It would be great to get into the Origin Academy, but it doesn't matter if we can't."

Seeing that the two deans had said this, the others nodded and said no more.

About half a day later.

As the bell rang, the practical assessment officially came to an end.

As expected, Shen Jun won first place in the end.

Shi Tianrui, who originally ranked first in the mental strength assessment, only came in fourth place.

There's nothing he can do; he hasn't been a level 5 martial artist for very long, so getting fourth place is already quite good!
Lin Yue, on the other hand, came in third place.

Her fighting style was extremely fierce; those who fought her would have been seriously injured if not for the intervention of the academy's instructors.

Seeing this, all the martial arts instructors watching from the sidelines frowned.

"Old Zhou, your student seems to have a rather strong bloodthirsty nature!"

"It's just a competition, you went a bit too far."

Zhou Qiyuan sighed and said nothing.

Since returning from Origin Academy last year, Lin Yue has become increasingly quiet and reserved.

It has even reached a somewhat extreme point.

In his opinion, failing the test must have been a huge blow to this girl with a strong sense of self-esteem.

Zhou Qiyuan even sought her out several times for this reason.

Unfortunately, Lin Yue did not react at all to Zhou Qiyuan's words.

It's still the same as before.

Now that I've entered Lingxiao Academy, I don't know if it's a good thing or not.

……

The next day.

With the assessment concluded, those who failed all left Lingxiao Academy with their respective mentors.

"I still have a year to go, and I must pass the assessment next year!"

Some people clenched their fists, their faces filled with resentment.

He has been in college for two years and only has one last chance left.

If I still can't pass the assessment next year, then I'll be completely barred from entering the Extraordinary Academy!

When the time comes, those who wish to become extraordinary individuals can choose to become martial arts instructors at extraordinary universities or join other extraordinary forces.

However, if this is the case, future achievements will be quite limited.

I'm afraid I might not even reach the level of a grandmaster in this lifetime.

For geniuses like them, this result is naturally hard to accept.

But there is nothing we can do about it.

With the increasing prevalence of superhuman abilities, becoming one may not be difficult, but the competition remains fierce.

And at this time.

Inside Lingxiao Academy.

All one hundred students who passed the assessment have received the cultivation techniques.

Source Energy Body Tempering Technique.

From this moment on, the Awakening Method can be said to be a thing of the past.

"As former students of the Extraordinary University, you should be familiar with the Source Energy Body Tempering Technique."

"For you at this stage, the most important thing is to master the Source Energy Body Tempering Technique."

"Only after you have mastered the basics can you begin to cultivate."

Upon hearing this, one of the students asked curiously:
"Dean, how long will it take us to master the Source Energy Body Tempering Technique?"

He glanced at everyone and spoke calmly:
"Don't worry, the academy will have lessons on the cultivation techniques every day."

"Those with good talent only need one or two months."

"If one's talent is average, it may take six months or even longer."

One or two months?
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

They all considered themselves geniuses, and that two months would be more than enough time!
Looking at everyone's expressions, Wan Chen naturally knew what they were thinking.

Even with a blood relative as a teacher, it's not easy to master the basics within two months.

Of course, he didn't discourage anyone.

"Now I'll talk about the academy's cultivation methods."

"After mastering the basics of the technique, everyone will have two months of free training."

"If you want to cultivate again after two months, you'll need to use contribution points!"

"As for how to earn contribution points, someone will tell you when classes start later."

"In addition, the college will conduct an assessment every six months."

"If you perform well in the assessment, you will also be able to receive contribution points as a reward."

"Finally, I want to emphasize one more thing: the area deep in the Hundred Thousand Mountains behind the academy is extremely dangerous, and no one is allowed to enter without permission."

"If discovered, the consequences range from a deduction of contribution points to expulsion from the academy."

Are the Ten Thousand Mountains dangerous?
Upon hearing this, everyone was startled.

Even the Dean, a Grandmaster at the Transcendent Realm, said so. What exactly is inside the Ten Thousand Mountains?
Could it be that there are some unknown secrets on Earth?

Thinking about this, everyone became even more curious.

But since the dean wouldn't say, they naturally didn't dare to ask.

"Alright, from this moment on, you will officially begin your five-year training at Lingxiao Academy."

"Of course, if any of you are able to become a Grandmaster ahead of time, you can graduate directly."

"I hope you can all become grandmasters soon."

"Only after becoming a Grandmaster can you take on many missions that require a lot of contribution points."

"Only then will you officially embark on the path to extraordinary achievements!"
