Ye Mo is very aware of his huge disadvantage in Qingyun Immortal Academy. He is a common monk without any backing or financial support. He has to do everything on his own to compete with the children of the aristocratic families.
Under normal circumstances, it would be completely wishful thinking for a civilian monk like him to want to become a city lord of the Immortal City Alliance.
Even though he paid a registration fee of 1,000 spiritual stones, he still took a huge risk and secretly dug thousands of kilograms of black iron ore from the mines in Donglaixian Village, brought it out with ancient painting tools, and bought the spiritual stones in exchange.
Otherwise, as a civilian cultivator, if he just wants to earn enough these thousand spiritual stones, he will have to go without food or drink for at least several decades. By the time he earns enough spiritual stones, he will be old.
City lord?
Don't even think about it.
Ye Mo knew very well that compared to the children of those rich families, except for having a mysterious ancient painting artifact, he had almost no advantages.
Only by trying his best to learn more things in the Immortal Academy, could he have such a small chance to surpass other City Lord students and win the top ten in the graduation examination of Qingyun Immortal Academy.
Every day before dawn, Ye Mo gets up early and goes to the Immortal Academy's library to read. In addition to books on cultivation of immortality and various drawings, most other books are free to read.
A true city lord has so many things to learn, almost all-encompassing.
After dark every day, everything in Qingyun Immortal Courtyard was completely silent. Most of the oil lamps in the attics of the courtyard had been turned off. There was still a dim oil lamp burning in Ye Mo's bedroom, where he studied hard all night long.
"If you work harder than them, you won't be able to surpass them! There are more than 100 students in this class. As long as you surpass more than 90 of them, you will be officially qualified as a city lord."
Ye Mo was secretly.
Among the City Lord students in Qingyun Immortal Academy, only a few are like Ye Mo, who seize all the time to study for fear of not having enough time.
Most of the other City Lord students left the Immortal Academy after attending the required City Lord courses and waited for the next half month before returning.
There are also some extremely powerful city lord students who don’t bother to study at Qingyun Immortal Academy and have private teachers hired by their families.
..
Half a month passed in a flash, and it was the middle of the month.
For the second compulsory class for City Lord students, Kuang Zhen arrived at the Bluestone Hall a quarter of an hour early.
The noisy City Lord students in the hall immediately calmed down, stood up and gave Kuang Zhen the disciple's gift, and then sat down one after another.
"The topic "City Lords and Resources" I left for you before the last class ended, please hand in the analysis document. Those who analyze well can improve their rankings on the potential list of City Lord students in this academy. The specific number of places to improve will be
It depends on your ability."
Kuang Zhen sat on the futon and said calmly.
As soon as these words came out, all the students in the hall were overjoyed.
Ranking on the City Lord Potential List is crucial to attracting the devotion and following of other assistant students. Especially the rankings in the top ten are the most fiercely competitive.
Life experience, financial resources, etc. are basically fixed and cannot be changed. If you can improve your personal ranking by writing excellent analytical documents, it will undoubtedly be of great benefit.
Kuang Zhen added, "Don't think about writing something casually to get away with it. If you write poorly, your ranking on the list will be directly lowered. Also, a reminder, don't bring it up if you are looking for someone to take advantage of. I can still tell the difference.
Such students will be directly disqualified from participating in the graduation examination."
This severe "punishment" surprised a small number of students who were about to stand up. They weighed the consequences again and again and sat back down.
Excluding those students who feel that their poor writing may result in their ranking being lowered, as well as those who are looking for someone to take advantage of them, there are already a few students who have given up on fighting for the city master.
Less than half of the students ultimately submitted analytical documents.
All students analyzed the documents, drew them on a jade slip, and handed them to Kuang Zhen's hands. This was a means for monks to record words.
Ye Mo was of low cultivation and it took him a lot of energy to imprint all his thoughts on the jade slips, which took him a full day.
After handing over the jade slip, Ye Mo felt a little anxious waiting for the result.
He is ranked second to last on the list of potential city master students in the Immortal Academy, which is at the bottom. If he could improve his ranking, he would be in a better situation.
After looking at the students around him, Ye Mo found that many students seemed to have expectations and wanted to improve their rankings in the City Lord Potential Ranking.
Ye Mo couldn't help but laugh, and his mood gradually calmed down.
Kuang Zhen looked at the jade slips very quickly.
Most of the time, he just glanced at a jade slip with his spiritual consciousness. He was obviously not satisfied with the analytical documents in these jade slips, and he didn't even bother to take a second look.
However, Kuang Zhen was already used to it. Most of the City Lord's students were of average quality. He couldn't expect the children of wealthy families who went to restaurants to eat, drink and have fun every day to put much thought into such boring analysis documents.
As long as the writing is somewhat reasonable and not too outrageous, it will be considered qualified.
Only a few jade slips have really put effort into analyzing the close relationship between "fairy city and resources" and the importance of various rich spiritual resources to the development of a fairy city.
Kuang Zhen stayed on these jade slips for a while, thought about it, and felt pretty good.
"Eh~!"
Kuang Zhen's consciousness scanned a jade slip and he was suddenly stunned.
There was a strange look on his face, and he glanced across the students. He pondered for a while before letting go.
It only took less than a moment to read more than forty jade slips.
After reading it, Kuang Zhen sat on the podium in the main hall and closed his eyes to rest.
This was waiting for the class to start, Ye Mo reacted immediately.
In just a quarter of an hour, it turned out to be very difficult. It was not easy until the melodious copper bell rang.
"This time, a hundred people are here! Very good. I thought that many people would be absent from today's class."
Kuang Zhen opened his eyes, glanced around and said.
"As soon as the potential ranking list came out, many people have chosen to give up! I'm sorry, the most important quality of a city lord-level monk is to have a perseverance and perseverance. Unfortunately, many of you here,
If you lack this quality, you are not suitable to become a city lord. For those students who are still persisting, I hope you can continue to persist!"
Kuang Zhen's eyes fell on everyone.
Every student he saw felt a huge pressure and broke out in cold sweat. Even the top ten students who came from top families were no exception.
With Kuang Zhen's unfathomable cultivation, they would feel great pressure as soon as he showed his breath.
"Let's talk about the more than 40 jade slips that were handed in just now. One thing I'm very pleased about is that these 41 analytical documents have basically reached the qualified level, and there are no unqualified ones.
There are three levels above qualification, namely good, excellent and excellent.
Those who are qualified will not take the initiative to be demoted, those who are good can be promoted by up to two places, those who are excellent can be promoted by up to five places, and those who are excellent can be promoted by up to ten places.
Now let me talk about my evaluation results: thirty are qualified, seven are good, three are outstanding, and one is outstanding. I will comment on them one by one."
Kuang Zhen's voice echoed throughout the hall.
All the students were shocked.
Seven copies are good, three are excellent, and one is outstanding. These eleven copies are undoubtedly the best among all the City Lord students.
All the students' eyes were looking around, guessing who would get the top eleven evaluations.
There are only a few children from top aristocratic families who look calm and confident. They must be among the eleven best.
Kuang Zhen reviewed each jade slip slowly and methodically, starting with the qualified ones and talking about their advantages and disadvantages in a few sentences. The top eleven items that the students were most concerned about would not be revealed until the end.
"This old man really knows how to whet your appetite!"
Many students cursed secretly in their hearts, but pretended to be serious and listened attentively.
Every time Kuang Zhen evaluated one, some students showed disappointment. When his name came up, it meant that the eleven most outstanding ones had nothing to do with him.
After reviewing the 30 points for qualified and 7 points for good, there are only three outstanding and one outstanding, which have not yet been reviewed.
"Lou Jiejun, Bai Xijun, and Ren Haiping, the three of them haven't been called yet, they must be among the remaining four! But who is the other person?!"
"Who knows, students who are somewhat famous have already been reviewed."
"I was so confused when I handed in the jade slips just now. I forgot to count who handed it in and who didn't!"
A student in the hall clasped his fingers and whispered to the student next to him.
Many people were talking in low voices.
"Ren Haiping, excellent! "Win with Resources" analyzes the impact of resources on the development of Fairy City, which is quite in-depth. However, the details are a bit rough."
"Bai Xijun, outstanding! His "How to Use Thirty Most Common Spiritual Resources to Rapidly Develop Fairy City" is a little smaller in layout, but it is more meticulous and unique. He has really worked hard to study it."
"Lou Jiejun, excellent! This analysis article on "Using Immortal City as a Stronghold to Control Surrounding Resources" is well written. It is powerful, enterprising, and courageous. It is a natural choice for the city master! As expected of a descendant of the Lou family, I have not lost you.
Dad’s face!”
Kuang Zhen stroked his beard and smiled.
"I am actually just outstanding, not outstanding! There is actually someone in this fairy academy who is more outstanding than me!?"
Lou Jiejun, a young man in brocade clothes, turned pale, turned extremely ugly, and clenched his fists. He was a direct descendant of the Lou family, and there was actually someone better than him.
All the students in the hall couldn't help but be shocked and curious. The outstanding three points were written by Ren Haiping, Bai Xijun, and Lou Jiejun. They were the top three in the City Lord's student potential list.
So who will be outstanding?
“That’s it for today’s review! Let’s start today’s lesson.”
Kuang Zhen did not continue, he said.
"Wait a minute! Teacher Kuang, whose copy is Excellent? What's written?! I'm a little dissatisfied. Can you borrow it and read it to see who has this ability better than me?"
Lou Jiejun stood up suddenly and looked at Kuang Zhen sitting on the podium without fear.
"This Immortal Academy has a rule that all analytical documents rated as 'excellent', once discovered, will be directly sealed and included in important strategic reserves to provide ideas for the development of the Immortal City Alliance. Only the city lord of Qingyun Immortal City and a few important
Only the core city lord can check it. Such documents are not allowed to be circulated outside at will, so as to avoid being discovered by the demon monks and deciphering the top secrets of our fairy city alliance."
Kuang Zhen glanced at Lou Jiejun indifferently, "Does your father have the right to see... As for you, let's wait for another hundred or two hundred years."
"Okay! The document cannot be passed on to others. However, the potential list of Xianyuan City Lords will change, and I can still know who wrote it!"
Lou Jiejun's face turned pale, he shook a bit, gritted his teeth, and sat back down.
