In the VIP section of the half-moon stand.
The guests from the sacred land were arranged to sit in the front row, and all kinds of precious fruits, snacks, and fine wine had been prepared on the table.
The leaders of the various departments of Tree Shade City were arranged to sit in another area, where there was also a platform for battle pets to watch the battle.
Chief Tu's Little Phoenix waited quietly behind the spectator's seat with its neck stretched out.
Many guests and students who had arrived early were secretly taking photos.
People couldn't help but wonder if Little Phoenix wasn't here to watch the battle, but to tempt the outstanding students.
On the left side of the front row, there was a sign with the words "Heroes' Club" written on it.
That was where the guests of the Heroes' Club were seated.
At the same time.
There was still some time before the graduation exam. The witch, who had stayed in Tree Shade City for almost a year, came to the stand early.
Wearing a split cheongsam, she sat on a chair with her legs crossed, which attracted a lot of attention.
A middle-aged man in a suit walked over.
"Miss Helen, long time no see."
"I didn't expect you to come in person, Mr. Clancy."
"Victor is an outstanding descendant of our family. Of course, we have to support him."
The Clancy family had been a large family in North America before the end of the world. Although it had been affected at the beginning of the apocalypse, it was still a large family.
After Ginclancy reached Transcendent Rank-2, the Clancy family became one of the top families in the Heroes' Club.
Now, they had a decisive influence in the Heroes' Club.
Otherwise, Victor wouldn't have been qualified as an exchange student at the World Tree Academy.
Once Victor reached Rank-2, the Clancy family would get another important seat.
Rank-2.
It was the dividing line between ordinary and top experts nowadays, except in Tree Shade City.
Rank 2 life-saving ability allowed them to explore all kinds of dangerous places without fear.
The Rank-2 superhumans of the Heroes' Club had all awakened at the beginning of the apocalypse. With the help of their soul power, they reached the peak. The Transcendent ones had only reached Rank-2 in a few years because of their explorations and opportunities.
The juniors didn't lack resources, but opportunities.
Talent was very important for them to reach Rank-2 quickly.
"I wonder how much Victor has learned in Tree Shade City."
"Victor isn't bad. He has a chance to enter the Transcendent class."
As the witch spoke, she picked up a green fruit and put it into her mouth.
She poured a glass of fine wine and motioned to Rex. "Want some?"
"I don't think that's a good idea. The graduation exam hasn't officially started yet."
Rex's mind was on the graduation exam.
Not only was he here to inspect Victor's progress, but he also had a mission to observe the standard of the new generation geniuses of the various Holy Lands.
After all, witches were too unreliable.
After nearly a year in the Tree Shade City, there was very little news sent back.
But after all, it was an invitation from a witch. He absent-mindedly picked up the glass and took a sip.
As the fragrance of the wine flowed down his throat, a look of shock appeared on his face.
"This wine can actually increase one's strength?"
The Source Energy in his body began to circulate at high speed.
One sip was equivalent to three days of cultivation for him!
The next three days were not to be underestimated. Ordinary people and low-level Awakened could increase their strength by eating the meat of exotic beasts, but for Rex, who was already Transcendent Rank-2 and had a body that was close to that of a god, there were fewer and fewer treasures that could be of use.
He gulped down a cup of fine wine and used his Origin Energy to vibrate the wine. The bottom of the cup was smooth and clean, leaving not a single trace behind.
Suddenly, his old face turned red.
Only then did he remember that he was not in a private space, but in public.
Fortunately, no one should have noticed.
He glanced at the witch Helen next to him, and then gradually set his eyes on the table in front of him.
Fruits, delicacies, a dazzling array.
Could it be …
His breathing gradually became rapid.
He forced himself to calm down again.
"In the Tree Shade City, such delicacies are not uncommon. As long as there are enough Source Crystals, there are very few that can't be bought." The witch smiled.
Rex pretended to be calm and picked up a certain fruit of unknown species.
He swallowed it in one gulp.
Pure Source Energy burst out from his mouth.
Blooming together with the juice, it made people feel like they were in a fairyland.
"Ah ~ ~ ~"
Rex covered his mouth, only to realize that the sound did not come from his mouth.
But not far away.
A female guest of honor was too immersed and forgot herself.
Three days, seven days, half a month …
Mr. Rex counted.
He was still restrained and did not sweep away a large table of delicacies and fine wine.
After all,
Miss Helen also said that these were all sold in the Tree Shade City.
Rex wanted to ask if the time of this business trip could be extended for three, four, five, six … months?
If not,
Could he find a purchasing agent?
For example, let that kid Victoria return to the Heroes' Gathering once a month, no, half a month?
… …
As the time approached, the guests of the Holy Land gradually took their seats.
More than 20 distinguished guests from the Norland came, all of whom were big shots in the Norland's defense circle.
In addition to Yao Zhaokong, who came to the Tree Shade City in advance, the Norland's first patron saint, Grandmaster Meng Jingran, also came here.
"Old Yao, I heard that your grandson is among the best of this year's students?"
"Hehe, it's just so-so. I told my grandson that if he can't get in the top … uh, top 16, I'll break his legs."
"The Tree Shade City is full of talents."
Grandmaster Meng sighed, "Perhaps, we can consider a full cooperation with the World Tree Academy. Anyway, the environment is gradually stabilizing, and the transportation is increasingly developed. It doesn't take much time from the Norland to the Tree Shade City by airship. Even ordinary students can often go back and forth."
Yao Zhaokong seemed a little surprised.
Meng Jingran said, "It's a new era. You and I are no longer stubborn. We should do our best to promote things that are beneficial to our Xia people and all of mankind.
However, not everyone can recognize the reality. It depends on your grandson's performance. "
The Norland and the Tree Shade had a close relationship, but not all geniuses of the right age joined the exchange group.
There were always people who were complacent.
They thought that the gap in the strength of the teachers was not big, and they were disdainful or unwilling to admit that their level was not good enough.
Yao Zhaokong said, "That's easy. Cheng Wu has made great progress in the past year. When he returns to the Norland during the summer vacation, the young people in his circle will get together and compare them. The gap will be obvious."
… …
A training ground in the school.
Gu Tang had been meditating with his eyes closed since last night. He suddenly opened his eyes, and a golden light flashed in his eyes.
He stood up and put on a set of Ancient Spirit Royal Family martial arts suit made of precious materials.
On the chest and back, there was an "Ancient" character embroidered, representing the Ancient Spirit Royal Family.
Pushing open the door of the training ground, the light sprinkled, and the "Ancient" character slightly glowed. The loose sleeves of the martial arts suit swayed gently in the breeze.
"Hmm?"
Gu Tang looked not far away. Under a big tree that required ten people to hug, a figure was leaning against it.
His face was somewhat similar to his, but more mature and dignified.
"Third Brother."
Gu Tang crossed his fingers, nodded slightly, and stopped talking.
"Thirteen, remember." The dignified young man said, "You represent the face of our royal family. You can only win, not lose. Do you understand?"
"I don't need you to tell me."
He said coldly and walked straight to the arena without looking back.
The Third Brother slightly narrowed his eyes.
Under the sunlight, his back gradually faded away.
… …
"Audience friends, audience friends! I'm in the battle area of the World Tree Academy. The ring not far from me is the battle venue for this graduation assessment. "
There was an unconcealable excitement in the voice of the female reporter of the Tree Shade TV Station.
Behind her, a cameraman was holding a two-meter-long staff with a basketball-sized image crystal embedded at the top.
It formed a rune equipment.
The cameraman could adjust the distance of the image crystal by touching the rune symbols on the staff.
At this time,
As the female reporter introduced the World Tree Academy, the image crystal also turned its perspective in time to capture the landscape inside the academy.
The mysterious World Tree Academy appeared in front of the public for the first time.
At this time,
In the distance,
Rows of tall and straight experts dressed in blue and silver robes flew over from the sky.
"It's the uniform of the Guards! That's the City Lord's Guards! "
The female reporter who had done her homework exclaimed.
The image crystal quickly focused the picture.
Hundreds of Guards were divided into several rows and flew neatly from the air. In a flash, they stopped from the last one and stood in the air.
In the blink of an eye,
The Guards were divided into two rows and stood in the air, facing each other. The two were separated by four or five meters.
The Rainbow Bridge appeared from the horizon, paved forward from the feet of the Guards to the VIP stands.
A figure appeared at the end of the bridge.
Tang Yu, dressed in a big robe, appeared from the horizon and stepped onto the Rainbow Bridge.
On the right side, a little behind was the Guard Captain, Nancy.
Further behind, there were eight elite Guards on the left and right.
Stepping on the Rainbow Bridge, walking in the void.
The wind blew, and the big robe fluttered.
Step by step, the movement seemed slow, but from the end of the Rainbow Bridge to the high platform, it only took ten or twenty seconds.
As if he had only walked a distance of a dozen meters.
The elite Guards behind him kept pace and didn't fall behind by even half a step.
This made the Tree Shade Radio reporters and the audience outside feel sorry. Why didn't they walk a little longer?
The image crystal could only refocus the various corners of the arena.
In the center of the VIP seats,
Tang Yu sat down on the main seat with a smile on his face and nodded to the guests.
Nancy maintained a well-behaved posture of not opening her mouth and not speaking, sitting in the position beside him.
She was a doppelganger.
So was Tang Yu.
His own body was lying in the castle, quietly watching the live broadcast in an unknown place.
Leisurely.
Leave the trouble to the doppelganger.
Nancy was the one who inspired him.
As the captain of the Guards, she must follow Tang Yu when he attended formal occasions.
But Nancy couldn't sit still for a moment.
Or she fell asleep after sitting for too long.
The doppelganger was different. Nancy set the doppelganger image as a "serious and well-behaved.jpg", which was in line with the Guard Captain's silent setting.
Tang Yu had no choice but to debut with a doppelganger … ahem, attend.
But no one could see it.
Mr. Rex of the Heroes' Club was secretly observing.
The moment he saw City Lord Tang Yu's appearance, he couldn't help but gasp.
Of course, he couldn't see through City Lord Tang and Captain Nancy, but the 16 elite Guards following behind them were all Transcendent Rank 2.
Not new.
Their realm was no worse than his.
All of a sudden, it showed the foundation of Tree Shade City.
As for Nancy and Tang Yu, Rex's eyes were reserved, just like ordinary people.
He didn't even dare to look at them again.
"I don't know what realm those two are in." He spoke with his spirit power.
The witch shrugged, "I don't know. I'm afraid not many of the Tree Shade City's higher-ups know. This is a realm we can't catch up to in our lifetime."
Tang Yu was just a VIP who came to show his face. The college's higher-ups were responsible for presiding over the graduation assessment.
He only needed to issue certificates to the best graduates and brush up a wave of reputation.
On the high platform.
Shang Gong Ling glanced at the guests who had already arrived and the gifted class students who were ready. She secretly cast two majestic buff spells on herself and said:
"Today's graduation assessment is a one-on-one combat assessment. Except for the one-off items that exceed the specifications, there are no restrictions on other equipment and auxiliary items."
"Both sides start from the fifth class, using a scoring system and a promotion system. The winning side's winning time, whether the opponent is heavily injured, whether the referee needs to intervene … will affect the winner's score."
In other words, the easier the victory, the higher the score.
If it was a narrow victory, it would be the lowest score.
"The top ten students of the fifth class with the highest score will be promoted to fight against the students of the fourth class, and so on until the last class of students fight, which will be changed to a knockout competition system."
The monthly exam was just held a month ago. There were very few students in the fifth class who had a chance to beat the fourth class. But after all, they were still geniuses.
This rule was actually to give the geniuses at the bottom of the ranking a chance to show their strength.
Among them, the outstanding performance may be favored by the commanders of the various corps.
In the fifth class, more than half of the students were exchange students from various forces.
Whether it was the holy land forces or the ordinary regional overlord forces, they all wanted to know how much their respective geniuses had improved after a year of study abroad.
The two sides were randomly selected, which seemed to have an element of luck.
If the opponent was weaker and could be defeated cleanly, they could get a higher score and have a greater chance of advancing.
But in fact, luck did not play a big role.
Even the gap between the number one and the last in the fifth class was not too big.
During the battle, it was a test of both sides' improvisation and tactical arrangements.
Unlike the first class, where the real geniuses gathered, from the last to the first, their combat power rose step by step.
Soon.
Two students of the fifth class walked to the ring.
The length and width of the ring was 500 by 500, which was enough for the students to display their skills. When the two students entered the ring, the tips of the four pillars at the four corners of the ring, which were wide at the bottom and narrow at the top, burst out with light.
Between the four light beams, two in pairs, formed a faint purple light curtain, covering the ring.
The referee announced the start of the battle.
On the ring.
The aura of the two students burst out, both of them were at the peak of the Awakening order.
The audience outside the ring was not surprised.
After all, they were genius students. Reaching the peak of the Awakening in a few years was only a basic operation.
How long they could break through to the Transcendence realm was the standard to test the talent and effort of the students.
The range of the battle was limited, so each battle did not last long.
It was even very short.
But the quality of the battles was surprisingly high.
Every one of them far exceeded the combat power of the peak of the Awakening realm.
"Are they really only at the Awakening order?"
A senior from an overlord force could not help but ask.
