Among the two thousand plus people, nearly ninety percent of them were fifth-year seniors. Be it their cultivation level or techniques, they had reached extremely high attainments. Clearly, their years in the Dao College had given them an advantage that far exceeded the freshmen.
There were quite a number of them. Wang Baole watched their battle process with rapt attention. Some of them from the Combat faculty had grasped their own mystic arts. These mystic arts could only be learned by the Combat faculty. Some of them could form illusory shadows behind their backs. It was a result of their rich lifeblood and was triggered by certain circulation methods.
There were also those who grasped mystic arts that increased their speed. Once they used them, their speed was astonishing. Even Wang Baole's pupils constricted.
And these Combat faculty experts were secondary. What alarmed Wang Baole the most were the Alchemy faculty and Array Formations faculty. The attacks of the students from these two faculties were too bizarre.
Wang Baole saw with his own eyes that a senior from the Alchemy faculty was no match for the Combat faculty in a head-on clash. However, he was adept at using poison pills, forcing his opponent to admit defeat.
There were also Alchemy faculty students who had pills that could strengthen their bodies. After swallowing them, they would immediately explode with immense strength. It was extremely shocking.
The Alchemy faculty has all sorts of strange combat techniques due to the different pills they use. It's impossible to guard against them! While Wang Baole was alarmed, the Array Formations faculty also gave him a headache. When the Array Formations faculty attacked, they would often form an array formation in the shortest amount of time. With the help of the surrounding forces, they would either suppress or trap their opponents. There was even a battle where Wang Baole saw a Array Formations faculty student set up an illusion array with his own eyes!
As for his opponent, he did not even charge out from the beginning. He simply admitted defeat within the array formation due to exhaustion.
Other than these two faculties, there were also the Opportunity Faculty and the other faculties, all of which were extraordinary. Wang Baole's observation of the battles during this period had given him a deeper understanding of the Ethereal Dao College's system.
Finally, two thousand people were chosen from the fifty thousand plus people. All the Head Prefects who had signed up joined in and began the second stage of the Dao College examination. To a certain extent, it could also be said to be the final stage of selection!
For the spectating students of the various faculties, the second stage of the competition was much more attractive than the first stage. Even the teachers were more interested in it. The number of referees for each match had also increased to three!
One had to know that every single one of these two thousand Dao College students could be said to be the elites of the Ethereal Dao College. To a certain extent, it could even be said that out of these two thousand people who had fought their way out of the fifty thousand people, most of them would reach the True Breath realm!
Even the last thousand people who were eliminated would be able to obtain the opportunity to become True Breaths in the Dao College's own mystic realm.
Therefore, the Dao Academy placed great importance on these two thousand people and did not allow even a single death during the test!
Even people from the Upper Academy Island had arrived to prevent any accidents from happening. As such, the assessment of more than 2,000 people had become the most important event in the entire Ethereal Dao College. The level of attention it received had reached its peak.
While countless students were paying close attention, Wang Baole received a notification and began to draw lots to choose his first match and arena!
There was no need to personally go to the designated venue. The matter of drawing lots could be done on the Dao College's internal Spirit Intranet. Wang Baole was currently sitting cross-legged in his cave abode. After drinking a large mouthful of Ice Spirit Water, he wiped his mouth and opened the Spirit Intranet.
"Which faculty will my first match be with?" Wang Baole took a deep breath and immediately drew lots. Very quickly, the results appeared. The identity of his opponent was not given, but the time and venue of the match was given.
The time was two hours later, and the venue was the third arena of the Dharmic Armament faculty!
Wang Baole was momentarily stunned. After all, it was his first time drawing lots. He thought that he would be able to directly see the identity of his opponent. At that moment, he scratched his head and checked the Spirit Intranet. He realized that there were many people who had the same doubts as him. Finally, after some thought, he guessed the answer.
"They are afraid that if they know the identity of the opponent in advance, there will be cheating … Therefore, they only gave the time and venue. Only when I reach the arena will I know who my opponent is … This Ethereal Dao College is indeed too sneaky," Wang Baole mumbled. Seeing that there was not much time left, he quickly sat down to meditate and adjust his breathing.
Only when he was in peak condition did Wang Baole heave a long sigh of relief. After calculating the time, he realized that it was almost time for the match to begin. He walked out of the cave abode and headed straight for the third arena.
There were a total of ten arenas in the Dharmic Armament faculty. The third arena was located not far from the Spirit Stones Hall. At that moment, there were already three teachers sitting outside the arena, waiting for the competitors to arrive. As for the surroundings, there were quite a number of people watching.
Although the spectating students didn't know who the contestants were, those who could enter the top two thousand were no weaklings. Therefore, to these spectating students, unless it was a certain famous person or a specific match that they had chosen, the rest of the matches didn't make much of a difference no matter which one they watched.
"I wonder who will be competing here … Will there be anyone from our Dharmic Armament faculty?"
"Everyone, pay attention to the Spirit Intranet. There will be an announcement in a while. I want to see Wang Baole's match!"
"I feel that Zhao Yameng is more worth watching. After all, she is a straight-A student who managed to enter White Deer Dao College."
Suddenly, cries of surprise rang out from within the crowd. Soon, they began to disperse, and a thin young man wearing a Daoist robe walked out from within the crowd. His face was cold, and there was a hint of arrogance in it. He leaped into the air and landed on the Arena Ring.
As he stood there, he flicked his sleeves and looked at the sky with cold arrogance.
"It's Wu Haisen! He's a fifth-year senior. He fought his way out of fifty thousand students. It's said that the Dharma treasures he refined are quite powerful! "
"I never expected to see an expert from our Dharmic Armament faculty in this match. Haha, I wonder who his opponent is and which faculty he is from!"
Everyone was excited. As they were discussing, Wu Haisen looked at the time in the arena. Just as he was about to show his impatience, an even louder sound came from the crowd!
As the commotion spread, Wang Baole's silhouette could be seen dashing over from afar. He was extremely fast, and with a single leap, he landed on the arena. As his round body landed, the surrounding crowd burst into an uproar.
"Wang Baole!"
"He actually went into the arena. Could it be …"
"Heavens, Wu Haisen's opponent … is actually Wang Baole!" The crowd gasped. As they discussed, they looked at Wu Haisen with pity.
As the Dharmic Armament faculty's three-roll Head Prefect, Wang Baole's strength had long been recognized. He was undoubtedly the best in the Dharmic Armament faculty. Furthermore, with his status, it was fine if he was from the other faculties, but if he was from his faculty … who would dare attack him!?
Wang Baole coughed dryly. He too found it strange. He never expected that his first opponent would be from the same faculty. At that moment, he was delighted. With a chuckle, he cupped his fists at the crowd. When he looked at Wu Haisen, his expression turned solemn.
"Student, don't worry about my status as Head Prefect. Come, take out your most powerful Dharma artifact. Don't worry. Although I'm the three-roll Head Prefect, I will definitely not seek revenge on you!"
At that moment, with Wang Baole's appearance, Wu Haisen, who had been extremely arrogant a moment ago, suddenly narrowed his eyes. His expression changed drastically as he took a deep breath and took a few steps back. When he heard Wang Baole's words, he was already lamenting in his heart.
"Damn it, I'm too unlucky. Why did I have to meet him!?" Wu Haisen was extremely depressed. In the eyes of others, he was an expert who could enter the top two thousand. However, he knew that it was also due to luck that he could enter the top two thousand. If his opponent was from another faculty, he would still have the confidence to fight.
However, when he thought about how his opponent was Wang Baole … Wu Haisen smiled wryly. He had seen Wang Baole fight before and knew that his battle prowess was astonishing. That was especially so when he had grabbed him and kicked him in the crotch, which had caused his body to tremble.
Furthermore, although Wang Baole had repeatedly told him not to care about his status as Head Prefect, in Wu Haisen's eyes, it was more like a reminder. How could he not care …?
"Everyone who goes against this guy ends up in a miserable state. And he says he won't seek revenge? F * ck, I'd have to be an idiot to believe that!" Just as Wu Haisen was muttering to himself, the three surrounding teachers reiterated the rules and announced the start of the battle!
Almost as soon as the sounds of battle could be heard, Wang Baole let out a shout and was about to step forward when … Wu Haisen suddenly retreated and quickly shouted, "I admit defeat!
I admit defeat! I admit defeat! " With that, he clasped his hands and bowed to Wang Baole. He immediately turned around and left without looking back. Although he was depressed, he also felt that he had made the right choice. After all, even after this battle, there were still other battles to come. Who could guarantee that as soon as he stepped down from the arena, there would not be a large group of inspectors pouncing on him?
He might as well conserve his energy for this battle and go all out for the next battle. It could be said that he had the best of both worlds …
The surrounding people booed Wu Haisen's choice, but most of them agreed and understood. After all, even if they were in his shoes, they would also choose to admit defeat.
"That's the only Head Prefect with great power. Admitting defeat is the wisest choice!"
"Even if he can win, he should consider the risk of offending Wang Baole!"
Seeing that he had won the battle effortlessly, Wang Baole was very happy. He sighed in his heart, feeling that he had already reached the realm of an expert as described in the high officials' autobiographies.
"It's said that handsome people will be treated well by the whole world. Now, I can be said to have reached the level where people will admit defeat at a glance. In the entire Dao College, who else can do this? No one! "
Wang Baole was intoxicated with himself. He touched his face and lowered his head to look at his slender figure. He was in high spirits and extremely pleased with himself.
