A few days passed, and Qingyun Xianyuan finally started school.
In the celestial courtyard, the most simple and magnificent bluestone hall, there are hundreds of futons. Several incense burners are burning refreshing incense, and light smoke is curling up.
In the spacious hall that is several hundred feet long, there are already more than a hundred City Lord students sitting cross-legged on the floor, gathering together in twos and threes, whispering in low voices.
These city lord students are almost all children of aristocratic families in Qingyun Immortal City. Many of them know each other and have small circles.
"Zheng Yiqing, a handsome young man named Lou!"
Ye Mo walked into the hall, glanced around, and immediately saw two familiar figures, and was slightly startled. He soon calmed down, and found a tufted cattail in the hall to sit down alone.
He is a common monk and cannot get along with those family members.
"How is this possible? How did he become a City Lord student?!"
Zheng Yiqing was chatting and laughing with several students when he accidentally caught sight of Ye Mo entering the hall and sitting down. He was shocked and almost lost his voice.
He was able to become a core student because several elder monks from the Zheng family tried their best and even sold part of their family property to collect a thousand spiritual stones.
How could Ye Mo, a small casual cultivator with no background, have the ability to hand over spirit stones?! This is incredible!
"Dong~dong~!"
Several melodious copper bells sounded.
A white-haired old man walked into the hall and stood on the podium at the front of the hall.
All the students stood up and showed their disciples' courtesy. When they saw the old man's appearance, they couldn't help showing surprise. This white-haired old man was clearly the same old man who signed up in the first place.
"I, Kuang Zhen, am the teacher of this City Lord-level students. You can just call me Mr. Kuang. Sit down!"
Kuang Zhen briefly introduced himself, then waved for everyone to sit down. He himself sat cross-legged on a big futon on the podium, looking at the hundreds of young City Lord students below.
"Being a qualified city lord is not an easy task!"
"The city lord is the core of our East China Sea monks. Wherever there is a war with the demon clan, the city lord is responsible for leading the monks to fight against the demons."
"So, the most important thing for a qualified city lord is the determination to fight the demon clan to the end, for hundreds, thousands, or even ten thousand years. A cowardly monk will never become a city lord."
"In addition, each city must customize its own growth strategy, have a strategic vision, know how to deploy defenses according to local conditions, have outstanding leadership capabilities, and many other aspects."
"These all involve all aspects of knowledge. Over the past tens of millions of years, countless predecessors have summarized these contents and compiled them into a large number of books.
The various books with unique materials in your hands are all valuable experiences accumulated by our predecessors in different periods who spent their whole lives and blood. In order to show our respect for our predecessors, we have copied them according to their original appearance and made copies for you.
You study.”
"Before I start the lecture, I want to tell you some history, starting from the ancient history of the world of immortality, "The Sorrow of the East China Sea."
Kuang Zhen's voice was filled with magical power, deep and vicissitudes of life, and his spiritual pressure enveloped the entire hall.
The long history of "The Sorrow of the East China Sea" is condensed with the blood of countless human monks. The human race opened up from the Kyushu Continent to the East China Sea, and started a war with the East China Sea Monster Clan in this vast sea.
The main hall fell silent, and the city lord and monks all listened with bated breath, and the atmosphere was very solemn.
Regarding the ancient history of human monks cultivating immortality in the East China Sea, the students here know something about it.
Even monks like Ye Mo have obtained some information from the ancient books left by Li Zhao.
The information Kuang Zhen has is undoubtedly much richer than what Ye Mo knows.
This lecture lasted for a full hour.
From the unprecedented defeat of the East China Sea Tiandao Alliance, to the internal strife and split of the East China Sea Demon Clan Alliance, to the restoration of the human race's strength and the re-establishment of the fairy city in the East China Sea.
Everyone's mood was ups and downs with this unprecedented battle. Some monks were even breathing rapidly, their eyes were red, their palms were sweaty, and their expressions were nervous.
"Our human monks have established a large number of immortal cities on the East China Sea Islands, of which thirty-six are the main immortal cities. They have regained a foothold and the history of immortal cultivation in the East China Sea has been continued.
We are all lucky to be born in this era. If we had been born ten thousand years earlier, we might have faced battles with monsters every day.
No one can say clearly whether he can survive or how long he can survive. It is even less likely that he will have an opportunity like today to sit in such a hall and listen to my lectures."
Kuang Zhen finally finished talking about this period of history and removed the shroud of spiritual pressure.
All the students in the hall looked soothed, and many took out towels to wipe their sweat, as if they had experienced a fierce fighting.
Ye Mo's emotions were also ups and downs, and he took several deep breaths to even out his breathing.
"Now, let me talk about what abilities a city lord should possess. The city lord's commanding power, the construction of the fairy city, and the growth strategy are the three most basic abilities.
As the lord of the fairy city, you need to properly control and deploy your followers, customize battle goals, choose battle venues, seize battle opportunities, and direct the entire battle situation.
The fairy city is the foundation of a city lord. The construction, site selection and defense of the fairy city determine whether the fairy city can survive. The only result of a fairy city with random location selection and dilapidated city defenses is to be captured by the demon clan.
The development strategy of the fairy city is related to the city lord himself, following the promotion direction of the monks. The development, promotion and expansion strategy of the fairy city. How to upgrade from a fairy village to a fairy town, fairy city, or even the main fairy city depends on the growth strategy customized by the city lord.
.”
Kuang Zhen said slowly.
These aspects are the introductory basic courses for City Lord students.
Kuang Zhen analyzed each one in great detail, and even took out a magic map of the island for on-site analysis to the students.
On which island is it suitable to build a fairy village?
How to build a city.
What kind of followers need to be chosen.
How to fight when encountering a beast tide?
This lesson lasted a full day, with almost no rest time except for a short break at noon.
"That's all for today. The next class will be half a month later, on the fifteenth day of this month. I'll leave you with a topic, "City Lord and Resources". You can use these days to read books and find information. The next class will be for everyone.
Submit an analysis document."
When it was getting dark, Kuang Zhen stood up and left a question to end the class.
After Kuang Zhen left, the students finally relaxed.
They, the children of aristocratic families, usually do not like to be restrained and have no interest in this class. But Kuang Zhen's spiritual pressure aura enveloped the hall, and they did not dare to take a breath and listened to the lecture honestly.
"Brothers, let's go to Xianyi Tower. I'm treating you today!"
"The old man is so verbose. I'm almost suffocated after sitting there all day. Let's go and have some fun!"
The main hall became lively, and all the City Lord students got up and walked out, talking excitedly about where they should go to have fun.
Ye Mo sat there, thinking about today's lecture.
There are very few courses for City Lord students. They only take two days of classes every month and study on their own the rest of the time.
However, there are other courses in this fairy academy.
For example, sermons about cultivation, the principles of weapon refining, the pharmacology of alchemy, etc. These courses are not exclusive courses for City Lord students, but are prepared to assist students.
Of course, City Lord students can also attend such courses.
The only difference is that the assistant students can only take certain courses that they selected when they were admitted. However, the city master students can choose the courses they like without any restrictions.
..
Ye Mo was attending classes in the Immortal Academy during the day, and at night he was checking information and writing an analysis document on "City Lord and Resources".
A rather sensational event suddenly occurred in the Immortal Academy, which almost exploded among the auxiliary students.
Qingyun Immortal Academy has posted an evaluation of the current city lord's potential list, ranking all city lord students. The city lord students are judged based on their background, financial resources, number and ability of assisting monks, and growth potential.
The auxiliary monks suddenly opened their eyes one by one, paying close attention to the top ten City Lord students.
For the auxiliary monks, they must choose a City Lord student to follow them in the future, and of course they must choose an outstanding City Lord student as much as possible.
If they follow City Lord students who have no future, they will also be unlucky and their future will be bleak.
Many monks come to this monastery to serve as assistant monks, hoping to find an outstanding city lord who can become the city lord's confidant.
In this list of potential city lord students, Lou Jiejun ranks first. Lou Jiejun's father is the master of a fairy city of Jindan monks. Among the hundreds of city lord students this year, the Lou family is the strongest.
Ranked second is Bai Xijun, who was also born into a family of immortal cultivators. The Dan Yao family is one of the top families in Qingyun Immortal City. There are also golden elixir cultivators in the family, but they are not as rich as the Lou family.
Ranked third is Ren Haiping, a member of a wealthy family...
Those at the top of this list are all children of major aristocratic families, and their strength cannot be underestimated.
Among the more than 100 City Lord students, Ye Mo ranks at the bottom. He is a rare civilian cultivator and the second to last.
The last one on the list is the son of a town-level city lord. It is said that the town-level fairy city owes a lot of debt and is in danger of collapse at any time. This person's family seems to have offended a certain big force. This person
Coming to Xianyuan was a retreat arranged by the family, so it ranked at the bottom.
Zheng Yiqing is ranked around 90th, slightly higher than Ye Mo, but not that good. After all, compared with other City Lord students, Zheng Yiqing's background is pitiful.
As soon as this city lord potential ranking came out, there was a huge heated discussion in the fairy courtyard.
This ranking is not only an evaluation of more than a hundred city lord-level monks, but also the main reference for a thousand auxiliary students to select city lord students.
Because this is the potential list of city lord students released by Qingyun Immortal Academy, the Immortal Academy knows the identity of the students and is extremely authoritative, so it will naturally not make mistakes.
Ye Mo ranked second to last, at the bottom of the list, completely unable to attract the support of other auxiliary students.
Ye Mo was quite helpless.
In the next ten days or so, Ye Mo found that the atmosphere in Qingyun Xianyuan was obviously intense and even smelled of gunpowder.
Many auxiliary monks began to gather around those high-ranking City Lord students. Even the City Lord students began to compete for those capable auxiliary monks.
There were also some City Lord students who were very lagging behind in the rankings. After reading the list, they felt hopeless and chose to join a certain powerful City Lord student.
At this time, Ye Mo realized belatedly that the function of the Immortal Academy's announcement of the City Lord Potential List was original.
Xianyuan encourages fierce competition among students to select the ten most outstanding ones.
After all, there are hundreds of City Lord trainees who signed up, but only ten of them were awarded the City Lord Order upon graduation. Most of the other City Lord trainees will fail in the fierce competition, and these City Lord trainees will also be forced to join the top ten.
City lord, or become a rogue cultivator force.
Seeing this, Ye Mo couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Qingyun Xianyuan is really sophisticated. With such a simple move, more than a hundred city master students and a thousand auxiliary students in the whole Xianyuan started fighting fiercely in advance. I am afraid that this fire will have to be burned until the day of graduation, and there will be no final result.
