The four elders in the air weren't in a hurry. They waited until two unlucky disciples had been turned into dried corpses by two blood puppets before instructing the surviving disciples to retrieve their blood puppets.
As for the two unlucky fellows who had died, no one cared whether they lived or died.
The remaining disciples of the three divisions all looked terrified and retreated one after another.
The green-robed elder in the air waved his hand, and a flame rose from the bodies of the two dead disciples. Soon, the two corpses were burned to ashes.
Immediately after, dozens of official disciples of the Sky Pillar Dao Academy rushed in from outside the square. Each of them was leading a huge Blood Eating Beast. They quickly cleaned up the remains of the Blood Puppet Division's disciples, and then all of them retreated.
At this point, other than the occasional smell of blood in the air, it was as if nothing had happened at all.
Out of more than twenty thousand people, only one hundred and forty-seven were left in the selection of the Blood Puppet Division.
Chen Qiang narrowed his eyes as he looked at the remaining hundred or so Blood Puppet Technique practitioners.
Old Feng in the air had allowed the Blood Puppet Division disciples to kill each other not only because of the characteristics of the Blood Puppet Technique practitioners, but also because the remaining Blood Puppet Technique practitioners had officially become disciples of the Sky Pillar Dao Academy after this great battle. More importantly, the blood puppets in the bodies of the remaining disciples had more or less grown by at least one level in this chaotic battle!
Especially the red-haired man's blood puppet. Chen Qiang had seen it devour three blood puppets in the later stages! Not only had the Sky Pillar Dao Academy obtained a batch of elite disciples through this method, but they had also allowed these disciples to grow again for free before they entered the Dao Academy!
The Sky Pillar Dao Academy had indeed schemed well!
"Haha! Good! Congratulations to the elites of the Blood Puppet Division!
From this moment on, you are the true third-rank disciples of the Blood Puppet Division of the Sky Pillar Dao Academy!
In two days, bring your tokens and gather here again. You will officially exchange your tokens for the Sky Pillar Dao Academy and enter the inner academy to cultivate!
This means that you still have two days to enjoy yourselves in the outer city. Boys, after this battle, it's time for you to relax. Go! "
Although the practitioners of the Blood Puppet Arts were vicious and indifferent, they had managed to escape death in this battle.
Therefore, when they heard Old Feng's announcement, they finally relaxed and left quietly under the frightened and annoyed gazes of the people around them.
After the Blood Puppet Division selection, it was immediately followed by the Warrior's Department disciple selection hosted by Elder Tong.
"Disciples of the Warrior's Department, compared to the Blood Puppet Division selection, you are much more fortunate. Although it was inevitable for the Warrior's Department disciples to use their weapons, the Sky Pillar Academy had a compassionate mindset and tried its best to prevent any casualties among them!
I can tell you that every year during the Warrior's Department Disciple Selection Competition, there are basically no deaths among the disciples. "
Elder Tong's opening speech finally allowed the remaining disciples of the three divisions to heave a sigh of relief.
This was especially true for the disciples who were about to participate in the Warrior's Department Selection. They had just witnessed the tragedy of the Blood Puppet Division's Selections and were afraid that they would lose their lives while losing the chance to become a disciple of the Sky Pillar Academy.
Elder Tong's next words made the disciples of the three divisions so excited that they practically cheered at the same time.
"Let me tell you another piece of good news! For the remaining disciples of the three divisions, if you are unlucky enough to not enter the Sky Pillar Academy, you don't have to be disappointed.
Since you have come to the Sky Pillar Academy of the Central Continent, the academy naturally won't let you return empty-handed.
For the disciples who are not selected, the academy and the Holy Sanctum will invite you to visit the Holy Sanctum! "
As soon as Elder Tong's words fell, almost all the disciples cheered.
"Sister Yan Xue, Senior Chen Qiang, did you hear that? Even if I don't enter the Sky Pillar Academy this time, it's not bad to visit the Holy Sanctum!
The Holy Sanctum! It's the most sacred place in everyone's hearts! "
Looking at Mei Xin's excited face, Chen Qiang's face was gloomy!
Visit the Holy Sanctum?
Hmph!
If they really went to the Holy Sanctum, those people would probably never return, right?
However, the big picture that Elder Tong painted was too tempting. In addition, the Holy Sanctum's position in the Shengmo Dalu was too high. Therefore, no one believed that the Holy Sanctum would do anything to harm them!
Seeing that the participating disciples in the square were in high spirits, Elder Tong finally got to the point.
"Alright, let's begin the Warrior's Department disciple selection!
Disciples of the Pill and Weapon Divisions, step back!
The Warrior's Department disciple selection will also be conducted in a free-for-all manner.
However, in order to prevent possible casualties, the Sky Pillar Academy has prepared wooden weapons for every participating disciple. Furthermore, every wooden weapon has a golden liquid coating on it.
"In the free-for-all later, as long as a disciple has the golden liquid coating on them, they will be eliminated immediately!
"Until the last hundred remaining disciples will be selected to enter the Sky Pillar Academy!
"Alright, all Warrior's Department disciples, go over there to collect your wooden weapons, then enter the battle ring and prepare for the competition!"
After saying that, Elder Tong drew an even larger battle ring below.
After all, among all the participating disciples, the Warrior's Department had the largest number of disciples, reaching nearly 40,000!
Zhang Yuan and the other members of the Tianwei Generals in disguise all received a message from Chen Qiang when they went to collect their wooden weapons.
"After entering the battle ring, those who have comprehended the battle domain, open the lowest level of the battle domain realm. Try your best to protect the members who have not comprehended the battle domain realm!"
The reason why Chen Qiang gave such instructions was entirely in accordance with the rules of the competition set by Elder Tong.
In an enclosed battle ring, with nearly 40,000 people fighting in a free-for-all?
Even if they did not fight, it was inevitable that they would bump into each other, right?
On the surface, the Sky Pillar Academy placed great importance on the development of the Warrior's Department, but in reality, were the disciples selected from the selection really the best?
Among Zhang Yuan's group of ten, only Nie Feng, Zhang Yuan, and Guo Liang had just comprehended the battle domain realm not long ago. Even if the others had reached the Battle Monarch realm, it was inevitable that they would bump into other people's weapons in such an environment!
Unless Vagabond and the others went all out, they would not have the confidence to last until the end.
However, if they did that, their true cultivation would be exposed.
The cultivation of these participating disciples was basically between beginner and intermediate warlords. The gap between them and Vagabond and the others was too great.
Under such competition rules, only in the later stages of the free-for-all would it be possible to select the true experts!
After Chen Qiang and the others retreated, the Warrior's Department disciples were herded into a battle ring with a radius of about ten miles.
In order to facilitate the elimination of disciples who failed at any time, the Warrior's Department disciples' battles were not protected by a barrier.
That was also the difference between the Warrior's Department selection and the other three departments.
After all the participating disciples were in position, Elder Tong shouted, "Good! The Warrior's Department selection officially begins! "
