Today, Sunfall City could be said to be incomparably bustling. Crowds gathered from all directions, heads surged on the streets, and the noise was deafening!
The annual selection of the White Tiger Academy began, causing Sunfall City to be in an uproar.
Compared to the Empyrean Limit Sect's triennial selection, the White Tiger Academy's selection was evidently closer to everyone's world.
More importantly, the Empyrean Limit Sect's triennial selection was for ordinary people! The Heaven's Limit Sect wouldn't accept people from large clans, especially those from large clans. After all, the Empyrean Limit Sect was different from the White Tiger Institution! Heaven's Limit Sect was a sect. The people they needed had to put the interests of the Celestial Limit Sect first. Therefore, family members were not favored by the Heaven's Limit Sect. However, the White Tiger Academy was completely different. The White Tiger Academy's recruitment was only a process of nurturing! Only the best of the best, and those with no complicated backgrounds, could be chosen to join the Bai Family.
Because, this caused the White Tiger Academy's recruitment range to expand by who knew how many times! It was also because of this that the White Tiger Academy's selection had become the most popular event in the Barbarian Province.
The selection for the White Tiger Academy began, and the thirty-six cities in the Barbarian Province began their selection at the same time. There were ten selection sites in Sunfall City. The closest place to the Lan Family was naturally the Du Family Square.
The city lord of Sun Fall City would be chosen once every five years, and the three great families would take turns to be in charge. The Du Family was one of the three great families of Sun Fall City. The current family head of the Du Family was also the current city lord of Sun Fall City. The Du family's square was also the largest martial arts arena in Sunfall City! This side could accommodate tens of thousands of people practicing at the same time.
At this moment, the square of the Du Family could be said to be filled with a sea of people.
"Big Brother Yan Chen, we're here. This is the place. Let's have some fun!" Lan Menghan said excitedly as she looked at Wang Chen beside her.
Accompanying Wang Chen and Lan Menghan were about eight or nine people from the younger generation of the Lan Clan who were qualified to participate in the White Tiger Academy's selection.
Looking at this scene, these people were extremely excited and eager to give it a try.
As for Wang Chen, he was also dumbfounded. There were at least thirty thousand people gathered in front of him, if not fifty thousand! This was only one of the selection points in Sunfall City. It was hard to imagine just how many people in the entire Sunfall City, or even the entire Barbarian Province, worked hard for the sake of obtaining a thousand spots for the White Tiger Academy every year!
At the same time, Wang Chen couldn't help but be amazed. The White Tiger Academy was so generous! The Bai Family must have gained a lot from this. Every year, a thousand people would be selected, and they would be the best of the best. As long as a small portion of these people were taken in by the Bai family, it would be an incredible thing. It was no wonder that the Bai Family could last for thousands of years and was still one of the most powerful families in the Central Continent! This was definitely related to the White Tiger Academy.
"Alright, Yan Chen, I'm going to line up for the test. Remember to cheer for me later!" Seeing so many people rushing to register for the test, Lan Menghan was also eager to give it a try and said excitedly.
"Meng Han …"
Just as Lan Menghan's voice faded, an excited shout came from afar.
Then, a few figures quickly squeezed into the arena.
"Humph, it's this guy again!" Hearing the shout and seeing the newcomers, Lan Menghan frowned and revealed a trace of displeasure, "Brother Yan Chen, let's go, ignore him!"
"Meng Han, wait for me, wait for me!" Just as she was about to turn around and leave, the shout in front of her became even more frequent.
In the blink of an eye, the figure had already arrived in front of Lan Menghan and Yan Chen, panting heavily.
"Du Hao, what are you doing here!" Seeing Du Hao appear in front of her, Lan Menghan asked impatiently.
"Hehe, Meng Han, today is the selection day, of course I have to come. Oh right, let's go, I'll bring you there directly for the test. This is our Du Family's plaza, hehe … I have the right to bring people there directly for the test. Why are you queuing here? There are so many people, the queue will last until the afternoon! "Du Hao was used to Lan Menghan's impatient tone, so he didn't mind at all and said with a smile. At the same time, he said that he could directly take the test, which made him very proud.
"No need, I'll queue myself!" Lan Menghan directly rejected his kind intentions.
"Don't. Meng Han, this person … Look, there are so many people, how long will it take to queue? With your strength, won't you be able to pass the test directly? Why wait here? Oh right, Lan Yu, what about you guys? Let's go together, don't waste time here! "Du Hao persuaded the rest of the Lan Family members after Lan Menghan refused.
"Alright, we can save time. Meng Han, let's go, don't waste time here!" Although Lan Menghan didn't give Du Hao a good look. However, the rest of the younger generation of the Lan Family had a good relationship with Du Hao. When they heard that they didn't have to queue, they instantly became excited.
Under the persuasion of these people, Lan Menghan hesitated for a while before she snorted, "Let's go then!"
"Alright! Meng Han, let's go, follow me! "Seeing that Lan Menghan had agreed, Du Hao immediately became excited and said quickly.
"Why are you following me?" Immediately after, seeing that Wang Chen had actually followed them, Du Hao asked with an unfriendly expression.
"Du Hao, my Brother Yan Chen is following me to cheer for me, what does it have to do with you? If you can't, you can go by yourself! "Lan Menghan snorted unhappily when she heard Du Hao's words.
"No … No, I … I didn't mean that. I was just thinking that since he isn't going to take the test, there's no point in following him. Since Meng Han wants him to go, let's go together! "Du Hao said with a smile. However, the way he looked at Wang Chen became increasingly unfriendly. Lan Menghan had treated him like this time and again because of Wang Chen. This made Du Hao focus all his resentment on Wang Chen.
At this moment, Wang Chen, who had been silent all this while, smiled and said to Lan Menghan, "Forget it, you can go with them. I'll just look around here."
"Brother Yan Chen, you …" Wang Chen's words made Lan Menghan a little anxious.
"I'm just looking around. You can follow them to do your business. I'll go back by myself in the afternoon!" Wang Chen said with a smile.
Hearing Wang Chen's words and sensing Wang Chen's gaze, Lan Menghan hesitated for a moment before she snorted at Du Hao. "Then, Brother Yan Chen, you have to be careful. I might only be able to go back at night. If you're tired, you can go back by yourself first. "
After giving some instructions, Lan Menghan followed Du Hao unwillingly to the front.
Leaving Wang Chen alone, he walked one round at the same spot and quickly joined the queue. Of course, he wouldn't give up on this selection. The reason why he didn't follow Du Hao was because he didn't have a good impression of this person. Moreover, it seemed like Du Hao didn't welcome him. Wang Chen didn't want to stay with such a person.
Queuing up was just a waste of time, so he didn't mind if it took up a little time.
The entire plaza was packed with people, so it was rather tiring to queue up.
Soon, the selection began. There were cheers and cries coming from the front! The boys and girls who had passed the preliminary test were extremely excited, while those who had failed. Those who failed were naturally disappointed.
The selection process was very fast, much faster than Wang Chen had imagined.
Standing in the queue, one could see some people crying bitterly from time to time as they walked towards the back and left the plaza. These were obviously the people who failed.
Two hours passed by quickly. As they waited, the number of people in the square decreased rapidly.
In the blink of an eye, there were only half of the people left in the plaza. However, although the selection process was very fast, and people were constantly selected and finished, there were people coming from all directions to join the queue. Therefore, although two hours had passed, there were still twenty to thirty thousand people who hadn't finished the selection at this moment.
At this moment, Wang Chen, who was standing in the queue, had already come to the front.
Looking at the people in front of him taking the test, he frowned slightly.
The preliminary selection was very simple. However, in this simple selection, too many people were eliminated. The selection venue was a few temporary big houses at the front of the plaza. Ten people formed a group and entered the big houses to participate in the selection! Ten big houses could select a hundred people at one time. This speed could be called terrifying! Otherwise, it would really be difficult to deal with these tens of thousands of people.
After another half an hour, it was finally Wang Chen's turn.
Under the lead of a twenty-two to twenty-three year old man, Wang Chen quickly arrived at one of the big houses. Naturally, there were nine other people who came with him! Almost all of them were below twenty years old. Other than Wang Chen, there was only one person who was above twenty years old.
After all, the White Tiger Academy's selection was mainly for martial artists between sixteen to twenty years old. The ratio of martial artists between twenty to twenty-three years old every year was actually less than three percent of a thousand people! Therefore, the proportion of martial artists between twenty to twenty-three years old who participated in the selection was also the lowest. This was because the White Tiger Academy's requirements for them were too harsh.
Inside the house, two middle-aged men sat at the front. Their expressions were incomparably stern. After Wang Chen's group of ten entered the room, the two men's gazes swept across Wang Chen's group like knives.
"Alright, hand over your residence cards and stand according to the three levels of the selection!"
After a while, one of the middle-aged men said to Wang Chen's group.
As soon as he finished speaking, the group quickly handed over their residence cards. The so-called residence card was the Central Mainland's proof of one's identity! Naturally, Wang Chen's residence card was made with the help of the Lan Family. Within the residence card, there was a person's main information.
"The selection begins! Start from the first level! Inject your True Yuan into the True Yuan Essence Crystal! "
After verifying the residence cards, the middle-aged man continued speaking.
As soon as he finished speaking, the selection officially began.
