On a mountain peak next to the Xianling City, a young man sat cross-legged. The red immortal weapon in the air was constantly being absorbed into his body, causing his aura to rise.
"Tomorrow is the day the four academies recruit students," the young man said. "My Will Index has already reached 190. If I break through another level, I'll be able to reach the Astonishing Will Level. But my cultivation progress is extremely slow. I don't know when I'll be able to break through to the Intermediate Immortal Realm."
The young man was Ye Mo. Ever since Ye Mo had bid farewell to Mu Qing, he'd used all the immortal stones he had on him to buy resources. In ten days, Ye Mo's Will Index had reached 190. But it was extremely difficult to break through to the Astonishing Will Level. It wasn't possible with just the Heroic Spirit Stones.
As for Ye Mo's cultivation, he was already stuck at the Lower Immortal Realm. No matter how hard he cultivated, he would be like a snail if he wanted to improve further.
"Ye Mo, is that you?"
At that moment, a woman's voice could be heard from afar. Ye Mo stood up. Seeing Ling Shan flying towards him, he stood up as well and watched as Ling Shan landed in front of him.
"Ling Shan, what's the matter?"
Ye Mo asked curiously.
"Ye Mo, you're not angry at me, are you?"
Ling Shan looked at Ye Mo, somewhat blaming herself.
"No, I left the Spirit Abode on my own," Ye Mo explained. "How could I be angry at you? When you said you'd redeem me with one million immortal stones in the stronghold prison, I already saw you as a friend. I left the Spirit Abode because I didn't want to make things difficult for you guys. I have some history with Xuanyuan Ze, and now that you're engaged to him, I can't stay in the Spirit Abode any longer."
"So that's what you're thinking," Ye Mo explained.
"So that's what you think. I thought you were angry with me."
Ling Shan let out a sigh of relief. Then, her willowy eyebrows furrowed into a straight line.
Ye Mo could tell what was on Ling Shan's mind. He couldn't help but ask, "Ling Shan, is there something on your mind?"
"Ye Mo, I need your help," Ling Shan said.
She couldn't help but tell Ye Mo what had happened that night, causing Ye Mo's face to turn gloomy.
"If I didn't do it, Xuanyuan Ze wouldn't have given up," Ling Shan said. "My chastity would've been gone. I didn't want to drag you down with me, but I couldn't think of anyone who could help me."
There was a hint of self-blame in Ling Shan's voice.
"Then you came to find me because you want me to surpass him in the ranking of the freshmen's potential?"
Ye Mo said.
"Actually, I don't expect you to defeat him. I just want to stall for time. Even if you lose, he won't be able to obtain my chastity."
As Ling Shan spoke, her face became slightly red. She bit her lips and said, "Before that, I will dedicate my chastity to you."
Hearing that, Ye Mo's mind went blank. He had never expected Ling Shan to say something like that. But from Ling Shan's point of view, a woman's first time was extremely important. Rather than giving her first time to someone she didn't like, it was better to give it to someone she had a slight fondness for.
"Lingshan, don't worry. I won't let him succeed."
Ye Mo said with a serious expression, "I've already offended him once. I don't mind offending him again."
"Ye Mo, you don't know the rules of the Celestial Martial Academy's freshmen examination. This time, Xuanyuan Ze isn't the only one qualified to compete for the ranking of the freshmen. The geniuses of our Fairy Spirit City, Lin Yonghao and Long Tianxiao, are also qualified to compete for the ranking of the freshmen."
Ling Shan said anxiously.
"What are the rules for the ranking of the freshmen?"
Ye Mo couldn't help but ask.
"Actually, the rules for the ranking of the freshmen are very simple. It's decided by three factors. The first is the cultivation age. The younger one is, the more points one will get. The second is the cultivation level. The higher the cultivation level, the more points one will get. The ranking of the freshmen will be decided by the combined score of the three."
As Ling Shan spoke, she frowned and said, "That Xuanyuan Ze should only be around 300 years old. His cultivation level has also reached the Upper Immortal Realm. Furthermore, he has comprehended four types of laws. I'm afraid his Will Index has long reached 190. Among the freshmen, no one can compare to him."
"You don't have to worry too much. If I really lose to him, I won't let him get away with it."
Xuanyuan Ze had provoked him many times. He didn't mind killing Xuanyuan Ze before escaping. If he was really forced to do so, he wouldn't mind killing Xuanyuan Ze and running for his life.
Of course, Ye Mo had a certain level of confidence in the freshmen examination this time. Firstly, his Will Index had already reached 190. Coupled with the fact that he was only 30 years old, which was 10 times younger than Xuanyuan Ze, he should be able to get quite a lot of points. If he lost, it would be because of his cultivation level. When the time came, he would just have to see which points would be the most important.

Every year, the four big academies would recruit students from various cities. However, the Immortal Martial Academy had the highest number of applicants. It was said that the dean of the Immortal Martial Academy was the strongest fighter in the Sky Opening Continent. If the three big dynasties were the rulers of the cities, then the four big academies would be the rulers of the continent. Among the four big academies, the Immortal Martial Academy was the strongest.
According to statistics, the Immortal Martial Academy could accept millions of students every year, five times more than the other three big academies. However, one shouldn't assume that there were no geniuses in the other academies. There were still some geniuses who would choose to enroll in the other three academies. The smaller the number of students in the academies, the easier it would be for them to stand out. The chances of them catching the eye of the dean and the teacher would also be higher. Once accepted as a disciple, wouldn't training anywhere be the same? Wasn't it exactly what they wanted to be accepted as a disciple by a fighter above the Immortal Realm?
The Immortal Realm was equivalent to reaching the fifth-order. It was considered a top-notch existence even in the dynasties. To be accepted as a disciple by an Immortal Realm fighter, one's future achievements would naturally not be low.
Some people entered the academies to pursue the pinnacle of the martial dao. There were also some who wanted to increase their cultivation base, return to their hometown in glory, and consolidate their family's status.
Today was the day of the four big academies' recruitment examinations. The registration points of the four big academies were located at different places. This would also avoid unnecessary trouble during the examinations.
For example, during the first few examinations, the recruitment points of the four big academies were located at the same place. Those students started fighting because they looked down on each other. If they didn't get along with each other, naturally, they would start fighting.
After entering the academies, ordinary resources were secondary. Some of the royal families had enough resources for them to cultivate. However, after reaching the third-order Immortal Profound Realm, the resources of the family would no longer be of any help to them. For example, third-order medicinal pills were not something that ordinary families could take out. However, the academies could give them to the students as if they were beans.
Of course, the most important thing was the inherited martial arts and immortal treasures of the academies. These things could not be bought in the market. They could only be obtained in the academies.
