Chapter 96: Branch Academy! Three Gifts!
Chapter 96: Branch Academy! Three Gifts!
With Wang Chen completely establishing himself as the number one freshman.
This assessment was gradually coming to an end.
When the entire challenge officially ended.
Many candidates had already reestablished their positions according to the rankings.
Unsurprisingly, Wang Chen stood at the forefront of the entire freshman team.
On his chest, the Little Azure Python proudly raised its head with a very smug expression, showing off to the freshmen behind Wang Chen.
From time to time, it would also squeak softly at these freshmen.
Although everyone could not understand this little guy's language, they knew that this little guy was definitely mocking them as the defeated.
What could be seen was...
As the deans had said, the top 300 really didn't change much!
Even Wang Zhigang, who rushed into the 50th place, was witnessed by other freshmen during his battle with Wang Chen, which made them realize Wang Zhigang's combat weaknesses.
So those freshmen who were pushed down the rankings by Wang Zhigang all took the initiative to challenge him.
Wang Zhigang was indeed good at farming dungeons.
But his PVP level was really poor.
In this situation, a freshman who originally ranked 50th but fell to the 120th place due to dungeon farming results directly challenged Wang Zhigang and regained his 50th place.
Looking at it this way...
The top 300 positions really didn't change much!
Even those who claimed they could enter the top few hundred failed to live up to their boasts.
Among over a thousand people, only the positions from 400th to 700th had some changes.
The ones at the bottom remained at the bottom.
The ones at the top remained at the top.
It was the freshmen in the middle ranks whose rankings were unstable.
This was also normal.
Even in academic exams, the biggest changes occur among the middle-ranked students.
Their strengths were similar, with some performing better and others worse, so changes in rankings were common.
But in any case...
These freshmen's hopes of slapping the faces of the deans and teachers were dashed.
"So..."
"Do you all still dare say that the initial rankings given by us deans and teachers were unfair?"
At this moment.
Dean He Fu'an stood on the podium, looking at the freshmen with an extremely authoritative gaze.
His heavy voice slowly resounded.
The freshmen fell into absolute silence.
Those who had clamored about unfair rankings were all blushing and didn't dare to look up at the dean.
Shameful!
It was really shameful!
They had thought the initial rankings were random, but who would have thought they were carefully arranged by the deans and teachers!
They even suspected Wang Chen of pulling strings!
It seemed they were judging noble people by their own petty standards!
Xuanyuan Academy was indeed a place that emphasized fairness and justice!
Strength was respected!
"Seeing your reactions, I assume there are no more objections to the rankings?"
"Then I announce that this freshman competition is officially over!"
"Whether you are satisfied with your ranking or not, this is the level you achieved!"
"Of course..."
"Those who lost credits due to failed challenges shouldn't be discouraged. There are many ways to earn credits. You can complete training tasks released by the school, assist with tasks assigned by teachers, or trade precious materials, items, equipment, or pills for credits!"
"But while earning credits, don't neglect your major's required courses! There will be a major exam at the end of each semester!"
"And every month, those with lower rankings have two opportunities to challenge higher-ranked students."
"So don't be disheartened! Know your shame and be courageous! Seek revenge! This is how you become a true strong person!"
Dean He Fu'an's words were a shot of adrenaline.
The previously downcast freshmen perked up again.
Yes!
Failure was not terrifying!
What was terrifying was not being able to get back up after falling!
"Alright! Now it's time for the branch academy selection!"
After giving these freshmen some motivational words.
The dean announced the final program of the freshman exam.
Hearing this.
The candidates' eyes lit up.
Each of the five academies had its own ace major.
The War Academy accepted any combat professions and trained students who would eventually go to the frontline as the human race's powerful reserves.
"Using war to end war" was the War Academy's motto.
The Magic Academy only accepted students with magic professions. This was the wealthiest academy with the strongest faculty. It was said that the teachers here were all nationally renowned magic experts, and countless magic students dreamed of entering this academy.
The Light Academy was recognized nationwide for its strongest support major, accepting only front-line and support students.
The Beast Academy, needless to say, accepted students with beast-taming and summoning professions.
The Shadow Academy only accepted explosive assassin professions!
Everyone's faces showed excitement, clearly having already decided which academy to join.
Dean He Fu'an, after saying the opening words, directly turned to Wang Chen standing at the forefront and smiled kindly, saying:
"Wang Chen, on behalf of the War Academy, I invite you!"
"As a welcoming gift, I personally offer you three great gifts!"
"First, an SSS-level beast tamer skill book!"
"Second, when you reach level 100, a set of epic nine-star armor!"
"Third, if you haven't chosen your second beast, I will arrange for you to contract a first-tier divine beast!"
Here it came!
The special invitation treatment exclusive to the top ten!
Xuanyuan Academy was composed of these five academies, united externally but competing internally.
Especially during the annual year-end exams, when the competition between the five academies was fierce.
Therefore, the deans and teachers naturally tried to attract top students to their academies as much as possible.
Wow!
When the freshmen heard the "three great gifts" offered by Dean He Fu'an, the whole audience was in an uproar!
The invitation gifts were indeed generous!
Even Wang Chen couldn't help but be slightly moved.
That was an SSS-level skill book!
And a set of epic nine-star armor!
Plus a first-tier divine beast!
Hmm...
The first two conditions indeed tempted Wang Chen.
The last one...
Dean He Fu'an probably never imagined that Wang Chen lacked everything except beast pets!
With the "Bloodline Identification" and "Bloodline Awakening" talents, he could see through any beast pet's hidden bloodline at a glance.
So, for other beast tamers, the last condition was absolutely irresistible.
But for Wang Chen, it wasn't necessary.
