In the World Tree Academy, there were ordinary mentors, advanced mentors, and special-class mentors.
Among them..,
The ones in charge of teaching the students of the gifted class were the special-class mentors.
Every instructor was a seasoned veteran. Their theoretical knowledge was rich, and their teaching experience was top-notch.
This referred to the resident mentors.
At this moment..,
The gifted class mentors' office, the mentors' group meeting.
A few special-class mentors in charge of different departments sat around the round table, looking at the empty main seat from time to time.
"Team leader is late again."
"You'll get used to it."
"I heard that today's meeting is related to the graduation assessment? Didn't we prepare for graduation a long time ago? "
"Old Wang, I heard that the genius of your Saber Department is planning to graduate early. Congratulations, you can receive your bonus again this year."
Mentor Wang's expression was complicated:
"Sigh, you might not believe it, but that girl doesn't need my guidance. If I wasn't already Level 2, I suspect that I wouldn't be her match."
"You'll get used to it."
A man with a dignified face hurried in from the door and sat in the main seat, placing a bag of youtiao beside him.
"I'm sorry, I had to line up to buy fried dough sticks … Ahem, I mean, I just came back from a meeting in the Lord's castle, so I was delayed."
The fragrance of youtiao filled the meeting room, but the mentors did not care.
His eyes stared straight at the team leader, Yang Hai. "Team Leader Yang, did you really go to the castle for a meeting?"
"Oh my god, quick, tell us what the castle looks like?!"
"Is that the key? The people attending the castle meeting are all big shots, and the team leader is at the bottom. "
"Ahem, silence!"
Yang Hai had no choice but to distribute the youtiao.
For a moment, the entire meeting room was filled with the aroma of food.
"I did just come back from the castle meeting, and I brought important instructions from the City Lord."
He spoke for a few minutes. "… This year's graduation assessment will invite guests from all factions. There can't be any mistakes, do you hear me?"
"Got it!"
"Even the City Lord has to attend, how can we not be serious … Ahem, I'm just saying that it's only right for us to do our job."
…
The news that this year's graduation assessment would invite foreign guests gradually spread among the students.
At this moment..,
There was still more than a week before the assessment day, and every student was making their final sprint.
In a year, Victor's ranking had risen a lot.
"But that's not enough."
He did not fight in the spiritual space, but in reality, in a training ground. Spear after spear thrust, the spear light turned into layers of illusions.
The graduation examination of the World Tree Academy was also divided into the ordinary class, the elite class, and the prodigy class.
Different classes had different assessment requirements.
The students of the ordinary class and the elite class faced the risk of not being able to pass the test. The students of the gifted class often passed, but those who passed the test were divided into good and bad results.
Those with outstanding results could join the main battle corps and serve as squad leaders, platoon leaders, and other officers.
Those with poor results could only go to some second-tier legions, where the difference in treatment was like heaven and earth.
Victor was only an exchange student. He had to go back to the Heroes' Club eventually, and the World Tree Academy's evaluation was not that important to him.
However,
Above the gifted class was the Extraordinary class. Only the most outstanding graduates of each year had the qualifications to enter the Extraordinary class to continue their studies.
In the World Tree Academy, there were only a few classes above the sixth year, such as the Transcendent class, the Rune class, the Array class, and the Pharmacy class.
There were even fewer geniuses in the runes and formations classes.
Victor was clear that he was not made to specialize in runic formations.
Only the Transcendent class was his goal.
"There are already so many monsters in the gifted class. I wonder if the Transcendent class …"
Even though he had improved rapidly, Victor had only barely reached the top ten of his peers. He was not confident.
He was also not clear about the admission criteria for the Transcendent class.
He heard that it was not based on the number of people, but strength.
It was possible that more than ten people would be admitted in one year, or less than two or three people would be admitted in one year.
Victor turned on his watch and looked at the few credits he had left. He gritted his teeth and spent them in one go to get a top-notch mentor to guide him.
…
The next day.
Victor came to the seventh training ground and waited for the mentor to arrive.
He was not idle either. He held the gun with both hands and started training. He did not use any source energy. Every shot was a pure burst of physical strength. It still pierced the air, and the sound of the explosion echoed in the training ground.
After an unknown period of time.
"Your perseverance is not bad, but … you pursue speed too much."
Victor suddenly woke up with a start, and his body stiffened.
He slowly turned around and saw a young man with a cold expression standing more than ten meters away.
"Mentor."
Victor bowed slightly.
Long Tao, the strongest spear instructor in the academy.
Victor had never been absent from any of his public classes, and he had benefited a lot from them every time.
"Spear techniques focus on sharpness and momentum. Advance unstoppably and kill in one strike."
"Your spear techniques focus too much on speed and neglect momentum. Watch carefully …"
Long Tao reached out and grabbed at the air. The surrounding Genesis Qi surged and gathered in his palm.
It gradually stretched and condensed into a 2.8 meter long spear.
He gripped the spear, and his momentum suddenly changed.
It was as if a dark cloud was pressing down on a city, making people uncontrollably retreat.
Victor naturally did not escape. He tightly gripped the spear in his hand and waited with rapt attention.
Long Tao moved.
His speed was not fast, and could even be said to be very slow.
He slowly raised the energy spear and stirred the surrounding Genesis Qi. The spear pierced out in a simple and unadorned manner.
There was no sonic boom that tore through the air.
Victor's eyes could keep up, and he could clearly see the trajectory of the spear tip.
But his brain was completely blank.
In his eyes, there was only the point of the spear that was continuously approaching.
He wanted to block it, wanted to retreat, but his body could not move at all.
A deadly threat made his hair stand on end. Source power surged wildly, forming a cyclone around his body. The ground of the training ground under his feet cracked slightly …
The wind was howling.
But he still froze.
He could only watch the spear tip get closer and closer.
It stopped in front of his throat.
The oppressive momentum suddenly dissipated. Victor broke out in cold sweat and his body went limp. He could not help but stagger back a few steps before gasping for breath.
But his eyes were shining, and he did not leave the spear tip.
He saw Zhi Li!
When he stood up straight again, a surge of sharpness burst out, and the God Weapon spear in his hand let out a buzzing sound.
…
Outside the academy, in a private training ground.
Yao Chengwu, one of the outstanding exchange students, had a solemn expression.
In front of him.
It was a middle-aged man with silver hair. His grandfather, the guardian of Beiting, Yao Zhaokong.
Yao Zhaokong pointed with a finger. Yao Chengwu's heart was alarmed, and his source power surged wildly.
Bang!
He was thrown far away.
The silver-haired middle-aged man took a step forward and instantly caught up. With one hand behind his back, he punched dozens of times with the other.
Yao Chengwu maintained his balance in the air. His essence, qi, and spirit became one, and he punched dozens of times with both hands, interweaving into an airtight defensive formation.
Bang bang bang bang —
From the air to the ground, the earth and rocks cracked, and then returned to the sky.
Only the thick barrier outside the training ground was maintained, sealing the fluctuations inside.
After a long time.
Yao Chengwu landed.
His face was bruised and swollen, and his clothes were torn into rags.
"Not bad." The silver-haired Yao Zhaokong nodded slightly. "Just a little worse than your grandfather."
Back then, there was no recovery of Source Qi, right?
Yao Chengwu was speechless.
He opened his mouth, looked at his bruised and swollen face, and finally swallowed the words he wanted to say.
"Bastard, don't embarrass the Yao family during the graduation assessment."
…
At the same time, in a different place.
Gu Tang of the Ancientspirit Dynasty, Eva of Winter Castle, and other geniuses were also making their final sprint.
Even those ordinary geniuses who had no hope of entering the Extraordinary class were working hard.
The graduation assessment of the ordinary and elite classes was carried out as usual, but the graduation assessment of the gifted class invited guests from various forces.
There would even be a live broadcast from the Tree Shade TV station.
The impact of the assessment on the battle may also be sent to various forces and stored for reference.
A real audience's attention.
Losing face, not only for oneself, but also for the forces behind them, and the family behind them.
But if they won beautifully, they would receive cheers and become the heroes of their respective forces. If they could win the championship … well, they'd better wash up and sleep. They couldn't win the championship even in their dreams.
There were too many monsters.
The recognized monster within the academy, the Great Demon King Duan Qin, was also cultivating.
Sky No. 1 student dormitory.
It was a courtyard the size of a football field, and there were all sorts of high-level Spirit Arrays set up in it.
Some were the courtyard's own formations.
Others were added by Duan Qin herself.
She had occupied this Sky No. 1 dormitory for nearly a year.
Over the past year, Duan Qin had repelled countless challengers and made a name for herself as the Great Demon King.
Until now, it had been three months since a student challenged her.
Even three months ago, most of the people who challenged her were exchange students who had never heard of her fame.
Duan Qin was only in her fourth grade this year.
Normally, she only needed to participate in the final exam of the fourth grade.
But she applied for early graduation.
Almost no one in the World Tree Academy would apply for early graduation. Even those who were confident of passing the assessment with excellent grades wanted to stay in the academy to cultivate for a few more years.
Unless they wanted to enter the Transcendent class.
But Duan Qin was the first to graduate early in her fourth grade and prepare to enter the Transcendent class.
Because she applied for early graduation, the assessment she participated in was no longer defeating the mirror image. Instead, it was an actual combat assessment with the sixth grade genius class students.
Under the gaze of the City Lord, Captain Nancy, and other idols.
Duan Qin was a little nervous.
What if, what if she made a mistake … and didn't win so easily?
Her dream was to further her studies in the Transcendent class and join the personal guards … Tomorrow, she had to leave a good impression on Sister Nancy.
"Come on, you just need to control your strength and pay attention to holding back." Her sister, the sixth grade student Duan Qin was helpless. "I'm different. I really can't beat those guys in the first class."
"Sister, let's do special training."
"Come on, you're just taking revenge. It's just that I pinched your face when you were young."
"Come on!"
"No."
"Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang —"
The rhythm of the battle echoed in the No. 1 Sky dorm.
…
Time flew, and it was the day of the graduation assessment.
The banner with the words "The Sixth World Tree Academy Graduation Assessment" was hung high and fluttering in the air.
The trees on both sides of the academy road were lined with small red flags.
From time to time …
Some important figures walked into the campus.
Not only were they guests from the various sacred grounds and overlords, but also the commanders of the various armies in Green Shade City, the senior officials of the municipal department, and famous adventurer groups.
Because of the special nature of this year's graduation, important figures who were rarely seen on ordinary days walked by one after another today.
"That's Commander Tu from the Little Phoenix Flying Corps!"
A student who was in charge of welcoming the guests exclaimed.
Following the gaze,
A man with a scar on his face walked over with slow but powerful steps.
The man's aura was strong, but not unique.
What really caught people's attention was the mutant bird following behind him.
The bird had bright red feathers, a streamlined body, and tail feathers that reached the ground. Its wings were folded, and its brown toes bounced behind the scarred man. Its eyes seemed to be burning with flames as it looked around. Everywhere it passed, the temperature seemed to rise.
The students yearned for the magnificent and elegant Little Phoenix.
At the thought of riding such a beautiful bird into battle, his emotions were stirred.
"I'm going to join the Little Phoenix Flying Corps after I graduate."
"Stop daydreaming. The recruitment requirements for Little Phoenix Flying Corps are similar to the requirements for the scout corps. If you can't get into the gifted class, you'd better go to bed."
…
"You're all about appearances. Why is Little Phoenix so much more popular than the Heavy Armor Corps? We're also the main battle corps, and we have more personnel!"
Next to Scarface Tu, there was a powerhouse of extraordinary weight. Even if he didn't wear heavy armor, every step he took seemed to be accompanied by a 'peng peng peng' sound, making people worry that the ground would crack under his feet.
Of course, that wasn't going to happen.
"Old Tu, you can't take a good talent from me. Duan Qin's fighting style is violent, and she's a good match for the Heavy Armor Corps," said Commander Xiong, who was more than two meters tall.
"Well, I can do that with Little Phoenix's good looks. Why can't I?"
Commander Tu smirked. "Plus, Duan Qin has to enter the extraordinary class. The academy won't let such a talented girl join a certain corps."
"I'm just trying to get on her good side. Once Duan Qin finishes her studies, she'll be given a commander position."
"You're overthinking it. As long as Duan Qin continues to grow, not only the top corps, but also the intelligence department and personal guards will all be open to her. What do you think the Heavy Armor Corps has to compete with her?
I think you should focus on the second-tier geniuses. Otherwise, before you know it, they'll all be gone … I don't know why your commander gave you the mission. "
Commander Xiong pondered for a moment.
He felt that Commander Tu had a point. Maybe that was why the Heavy Armor Corps hadn't been able to get a good talent for two years in a row.
Suddenly, he realized something. "Wait, what do you mean?!"
As he spoke.
In the distance, there was an arena about seven or eight steps high. It was said that it was infused with magical materials, and could withstand a battle between extraordinary warriors.
On the side of the arena, there was a half-moon grandstand, where the senior executives of Tree Shade and guests from all over the world were seated.
On the other side of the grandstand, there was a temporary staircase made of earth magic, so that interested students could watch from there.
There were no tickets for sale.
Only a few Image Recording Crystals were distributed in different locations, ready for the live broadcast.
