Xiao Yan couldn't hold back at all and burst out laughing: "Ha, this is really interesting."
His smile made Xiao Ning, Xiao Mei, and the others unable to hold back their laughter, covering their mouths or faces. Even Xiao Yu couldn't help but chuckle.
This angered Rob, and his smile turned ugly as he asked Xiao Yan, "Kid, what are you laughing at?"
"I thought of something funny," Xiao Yan said with a light cough, "After all, I passed the preliminary test at Canaan Academy."
Then, we can go to Canaan Academy to find the Strange Flame.
"You think I believe that?" Rob said coldly. "You're clearly laughing at me."
"No, no," Xiao Yan shook his head and said, "My Xiao family has strict family training, and we don't usually laugh."
Unless, of course, I can't help it!
"Interesting." Zhang Yuan smiled.
Xiao Yanzi does have a good sense of humor; he could go and make movies with Stephen Chow.
Rob was furious inside, but he didn't show it on his face. He pointed at the distant sunlight and said, "Okay, it seems I misunderstood."
"Congratulations on passing the initial test. Now, please go and stay there for half an hour."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yu's eyebrows furrowed, and her face turned icy as she said, "Luo Bu, what do you mean?!"
"What could I possibly mean?" Rob said innocently. "Xiao Yu, you're a veteran student too, so you know the unspoken rules of the admissions exam. New students who pass the exam all think they're geniuses, and they're bound to be arrogant. So, tempering their arrogance during the admissions process is good for their future development."
"Ha!" Suppressing the urge to slap this guy away, Xiao Yu said coldly, "Luo Bu, you know this is an unspoken rule, it's not written."
"I don't care if it's necessary to do this for some ignorant or arrogant freshmen, but you dare to do this to the people I brought?"
Other female classmates also spoke up in support.
This fueled Rob's anger, as he felt his dignity had been tarnished in public.
"The rules, right?" Rob suddenly smiled and said, "According to the regulations, they passed the test under my supervision, so I will temporarily take charge of them."
"For your sake, I won't let everyone go. This troublemaker who laughs randomly and has no manners can go, right?"
Luo Bu pointed at Xiao Yan, clearly intending to settle a personal score.
Xiao Yu said coldly, "I will go to Instructor Ruolin myself. Stop interfering!"
Just then, a few more boys emerged from the shadows and came up behind Rob, saying, "Brother Rob, has a troublemaker appeared among the people you're in charge of?"
"A few freshmen, relying on their connections, are unwilling to go out and show themselves off." Luo Bu shook his head and sighed, implying that Xiao Yan and the others had received special privileges.
"This isn't right," someone said, pointing to the boys and girls sunbathing in the distance. "With so many people watching, we have to treat everyone equally, otherwise these freshmen will have complaints, won't they?"
That statement is clearly meant to incite trouble.
To the boys' surprise, the girls sunbathing all seemed to ignore them.
Just kidding, they're not like those idiots who flaunt their seniority.
These people are members of the Xiao family, the undisputed overlords of Wutan City.
As early as six months ago, this generation of younger students were already fighters, no less capable than these so-called veteran students.
And then there's Zhang Yuan, who a year ago was already a Grand Master capable of defeating a Nine-Star Dou Ling and became the City Lord of Stone Desert City. He's an idol in the hearts of countless young people in the Jia Ma Empire.
Who do you think you are?
"."
At this moment, Zhang Yuan turned his head to look in one direction and said indifferently, "This farce has made me very disappointed in the students of Canaan Academy. It has nothing to do with talent or strength; their character is just too mediocre."
"If Canaan Academy is full of this kind of people, I need to consider whether to withdraw the Xiao family from this assessment and expel Xiao Yu from the school."
Upon hearing this, the expressions of everyone in the room changed drastically.
The extra update is over. From now on, I will maintain a stable 6,000-word update schedule with quality and quantity. I hope you will continue to support me!
Chapter 108 The Xiao Family's Extravagance! Ruolin: This Unbelievable Wealth
Silence! Utter silence, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
No one expected that Zhang Yuan would say such a thing, his words filled with disdain for Canaan Academy.
This is Canaan Academy, a renowned top power across the entire continent. Even if a single recruitment team is far from representing the academy, it at least carries the name.
How dare Zhang Yuan?
In fact, Zhang Yuan did not feel that Canaan Academy was absolutely necessary, so he did not plan to go.
As for sending the younger generation of the Xiao family, it's just to take advantage of them; it's not that they absolutely have to go.
Being born into the right family is a skill. The younger generation of the Xiao family were born in this era and could rise to the top in one step by waiting for him to fight Xiao Yan and the Empress. That was their luck.
He simply didn't want these younger generation members to be blinded by this luck, and wanted to temper them from a young age. Canaan Academy just happened to be a good choice, but it was far from the only option.
To be honest, he could easily lead his people to develop within the Starfall Pavilion.
As for the Fallen Heart Flame of Canaan Academy, it is not necessary to join to obtain it.
Not to mention that the Fallen Heart Flame had a hidden danger of eruption that could only be resolved by Mang Qianchi returning, just the fact that Han Feng was preparing to take action would be enough to give Canaan Academy a hard time. In that case, they couldn't let the two sides fight and the fisherman benefit.
These arrogant guys disgusted him, and Zhang Yuan had no intention of being polite.
"Kid, do you know what you're saying?!" Rob and his group were both surprised and delighted.
Zhang Yuan is just asking for trouble.
"Yu'er?" Several female students looked at Xiao Yu, hoping she would speak up and smooth things over, preferably getting Zhang Yuan to apologize.
But Xiao Yu said seriously, "If it's his idea, then we will drop out of school."
As she spoke, Xiao Yu followed Zhang Yuan's gaze to a shadowy spot and said, "Teacher Ruolin, I'm sorry."
In the shadows, a woman dressed in green stood smiling. A look of surprise crossed her beautiful face, but her eyes held a gentle tenderness. Anyone who met her gaze could feel a clear, refreshing feeling flowing through their heart.
Approaching thirty, she possessed a full and shapely figure, exuding a mature charm honed by time. Even though her appearance was slightly less striking than Xiao Yu's, her unique gentle temperament was captivating.
Women are like water, and this is the best description of them.
Some of the young male trainees' eyes lit up with a burning desire when they heard the voice.
"Yu'er, you don't need to apologize."
Ruolin emerged from the shadows, her gaze sweeping over Xiao Yan and the others, lingering on Zhang Yuan for a few moments, before finally turning to Luo Bu and saying, "You lot, apologize to me."
"Mentor!" Rob's face turned blue and purple.
“If you want to follow the unspoken rules, I won’t say anything.” Ruolin’s expression turned serious, and she said earnestly, “Some arrogant freshmen do need to have their sharp edges tempered, but that’s not a reason for you to take out your resentment from the tempering you’ve had on every student.”
"I originally planned to teach you a lesson after the assessment to save face for you in front of your future juniors, but you have disappointed me greatly!"
Upon hearing this, Rob and the others turned deathly pale.
They clenched their fists instinctively, feeling both angry and afraid, but in the end they all lowered their heads.
"Everyone, I have gone too far. Please forgive me."
Luo Bu and his group bowed and apologized to Xiao Yu and the others.
They all looked to Zhang Yuan, waiting for him to make a decision.
No matter how prestigious Canaan Academy was, it couldn't compare to their cousin in their hearts.
"Yu'er, are you not satisfied with the teacher's decision?" Ruolin winked at Xiao Yu.
"It's alright now," Zhang Yuan's voice rang in Xiao Yu's ear.
He was very satisfied with Ruolin's attitude.
Following someone like that, at least you won't turn bad.
"Mentor." Xiao Yu felt relieved and happily threw herself into Ruolin's arms, hugging the latter's seemingly plump but actually very shapely waist.
"How was your holiday?" Ruolin reached out and stroked Xiao Yu's head, her face beaming with smiles.
"Very good." Xiao Yu smiled.
If I were to tell Ruolin about my current strength and weapon-refining abilities, it would definitely terrify her.
Ruolin whispered a few more words to her, then clapped her hands gently and said, "Classmates, please come in."
Under the scorching sun, the soon-to-be freshmen, drenched in sweat, immediately showed expressions of joy, sat up one after another, and somewhat awkwardly moved into the shade.
Upon entering, the first thing they did was run up to Zhang Yuan and the Xiao family to express their gratitude, calling them "Young Master" and "Miss".
Today is the first day that Canaan Academy is recruiting students in Utan City, and those who come in first are naturally all from Utan City.
Those who can become "geniuses" in Wutan City at a young age must come from well-off families, and naturally they make a living in the Xiao family's businesses.
This scene made Ruolin and Xueni secretly click their tongues, thinking to themselves that the Xiao family's status in Wutan City didn't seem as ordinary as Xiao Yu had said.
Instructor Ruolin composed herself, gracefully sat down in the chair at the head of the tent, and with a flick of her wrist took out a green monster hide scroll and an ink brush. She then swept her gaze across the crowd and said, "Congratulations. As long as you pass the prediction, you have already entered the gates of Canaan Academy and become new students of the outer academy."
“However, within and outside the Canaan Academy, different students will receive different treatment to a certain extent, and the standard for measurement will be the student’s potential value. Therefore, I need to know your exact strength and age to make a preliminary statistic.”
"After arriving at the academy, our bone age and specific abilities will be tested, and then we will make a more detailed classification."
"In a rough sense, according to the academy's standards, the eighth level of Dou Qi is the threshold, belonging to the F-level potential value."
"Nine-stage Dou Qi, E-level potential value, one-star Dou Zhe, D-level, two-star Dou Zhe, C-level, and so on, with the highest being S-level. The strength required is to reach five-star Dou Zhe, and the age requirement is under twenty."
Judging a person's potential based on their cultivation level under twenty years old sounds unreliable, but it is still considered reasonable in the Dou Qi Continent.
Leaving aside those members of the imperial clans who don't operate openly, there are never any shortcuts for ordinary people on the Dou Qi Continent when condensing Dou Qi. In other words, those with high talent condense it quickly, while those with poor talent condense it slowly.
All kinds of pills and cultivation techniques are ineffective.
It's possible that only in places where the energy of heaven and earth is more concentrated will there be some benefit.
Any place with abundant天地能量 (heaven and earth energy) is either a blessed land or a secret realm, or has a powerful array formation, and is occupied by powerful forces or magical beasts.
The geniuses cultivated by these forces were not the main group of students recruited by Canaan Academy.
Their potential value system is designed to target ordinary people or geniuses from ordinary families, scour them up, train them in the academy, and make them part of the academy's network and prestige.
From this perspective, this set of potential value classifications, which has been used for a long time, is actually very effective.
And Yao Lao was indeed a genius, actually able to create a Foundation Building Elixir that could be used by people in the stage of condensing battle qi.
Otherwise, even with Zhang Yuan, the number of Xiao family members who could pass the test today might increase, but not by much, and it wouldn't impress anyone.
