The sound of the ringing bells was still lingering in my ears, but the entire Douxuan Immortal City was already boiling.
No one thought that the first place would be Chen Xi instead of one of Ji Xuanbing, Zhenlu, and Zhao Mengli.
No one thought that the first place on the final assessment list of Daohuang Academy this time would be a young man whom they had never expected.
Even for all the living beings in Dou Xuan Immortal City, this was the first time they heard Chen Xi's name. It was so unfamiliar that they couldn't even remember who this young man was and which Immortal Continent he came from.
, and which force’s descendant he is...
Perhaps it is precisely because of these unexpected things that when they heard the name "Chen Xi" occupying the first place, everyone was so excited and shocked.
Not only Dou Xuan Immortal City, but also the square outside the Dao Emperor Academy was in shock. Many big figures from the top powers from all over looked shocked and quite surprised.
After all, although Chen Xi ranked first in the second assessment, he only ranked ninth in the first round of assessment. Overall, there is no way he can compare with Fozi Zhenlu, Ji Xuanbing, Zhao Mengli and others.
But now, he actually became the number one in the end, how can people not be surprised?
"In the third round of assessment, I am afraid that this boy will be praised by the gods at the level of resonance between heaven and earth, and as expected, he should be ranked first. Otherwise, the final ranking will definitely not be higher than that of Buddha Zhenlu and Ji Xuanbing.
Zhao Mengli and others."
Most people have vaguely guessed at some of the answers, but they dare not make any judgments.
"No matter what, this is a miracle after all. It subverts almost all our perceptions. After all the previous assessments, this is the first time that a situation like this has happened!"
Some people sighed, unable to conceal their shock.
"Okay! Okay! Okay!"
Among those present, Tie Qiuyu was undoubtedly the most excited. His old face shone and he said "hello" three times in a row, which showed how excited he was.
"Hmph, I'm looking forward to seeing how my cousin Junlin will feel when he learns about this list."
Mu Ling's clear eyes were looking forward, her expression was flying, her cherry lips were slightly raised, and she looked proud, which made all the important figures of the Mu family nearby dumbfounded.
On the other side, Zuo Qiu Ke's face was covered with frost, her eyes were cold, and her beautiful brows were filled with a hint of sinister aura. Not only her, but the expressions of the Zuo Qiu Ke clan members next to her were also very different.
First place!
For that kid to receive such an honor, I am afraid that he has already been noticed by many big figures in Daohuang Academy. As a result, it will obviously become difficult for them to deal with Chen Xi.
Damn it!
how so?
How should they explain this to their clan?
The mood of the Zuoqiu clan members suddenly became extremely complicated and terrible.
…
At this time, the Zhengming Hall was also filled with shock. Whether it was the disciples who had passed the examination or Zhou Zhili, Wang Daolu and other dignitaries from the Daohuang Academy, they all looked at Chen Xi with a hint of surprise.
Fortunately, this dull atmosphere was soon broken.
"Haha, the assessment is finally over. It's time for me to come over next, right?"
"I remember correctly. The next time is to allocate places for these new students to study, promulgate the college rules, and select teaching courses, right?"
"Humph, I haven't seen you so enthusiastic about enrollment matters in the past? Why are you all here eagerly today?"
A burst of uproar sounded outside the hall, and then a series of powerful and majestic figures rushed in, like divine radiance coming from the sky, shaking the void with circles of ripples.
This group of people includes men and women, old and young, but without exception they are all extremely powerful. With every breath and breath, the heaven and earth resonate, and the avenues harmonize, making people's hearts tremble.
As soon as they appeared in the main hall, their eyes all fell on the five hundred disciples. When they saw Chen Xi, their eyes lit up and their faces showed warm smiles.
"Little guy, I am Shen Haotian, the chief instructor of the Alchemy Academy. Now that you have good qualifications, I want to teach you all your inheritance. Are you willing?"
An old man with snow-white beard and hair and kind eyes smiled and spoke with great enthusiasm.
Zhou Zhili and Wang Daolu were startled. They never expected that Shen Haotian, who had a withdrawn and violent temperament, could show such a charitable side. Could this be one of the three great alchemy masters who was famous in the three worlds?
The big shots who came with Shen Haotian heard this and immediately spoke out.
"Young man, Alchemy is a heretic after all. If you are willing, come to our Sutra Collection Institute. I will accept you as a direct disciple of the Sutra Collection Institute. You can read the classics in the academy without charging you any star points!"
"Hmph, when it comes to teaching disciples, who of you can compare to me, Qiu Wancen? Little guy, the most important thing in fighting on the road is decisiveness. I have fought in foreign lands for thirty-six thousand years. I may not be good at anything else, but when it comes to talking about
The fighting methods are not comparable to those of a great alchemy master or the dean of the Sutra Library!"
"Your name is Chen Xi, right? I am Jiang Yu, Yan Yu? Ling Qingwu is the disciple I brought out. If you are willing to follow me to practice Taoism, within a hundred years, I guarantee that you can become a new generation of scorching figures in the immortal world.
!”
"Taoist Sister Jiang, don't forget, that Tie Yuan? Ye Tang is a disciple brought out by my Xuanyuan Po Army. Besides, you are a female, why are you trying to steal a male disciple from us?"
All of a sudden, the hall fell into that kind of arguing and inseparable scene again. The disciples were stunned for a while. Is this okay?
"Everyone, please stop arguing. Regardless of whether he is a direct disciple or not, Chen Xi will eventually start practicing in the outer courtyard. As the head of the outer courtyard, I will not treat Chen Xi badly."
Zhou Zhili couldn't hold himself back and got involved.
Only Wang Daolu felt bitter in his heart. He couldn't fight for anything because he had just accepted a direct disciple a while ago. According to the regulations of the academy, a chief instructor cannot be a direct disciple until he reaches the Great Luo Jin Fairyland.
It is allowed to admit more students.
"Boy Zhou! Is this how you talk to your uncle?"
"Brother Zhou, you took a piece of Chaos Cave Yuan Iron from me last time. Look, I won't let you return it. It's enough to give this disciple to me."
Seeing that Zhou Zhili actually wanted to get involved, the others were immediately dissatisfied and condemned them one after another.
Zhou Zhili's face suddenly darkened and he hummed: "No matter what you say, according to the rules, Chen Xi must enter the outer courtyard to practice!"
"It's good to practice in the outer courtyard, but there is no delay in becoming my direct student." Jiang Yu waved his hand directly, neatly and without any sloppiness.
Zhou Zhili felt a headache, Taoist Aunt Jiang was really difficult to deal with.
Just when everyone was arguing, a young man in gray clothes suddenly walked in outside the hall, with white hair like frost, sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. As soon as he entered, it was like a bone-chilling coldness swept through the hall.
The wind caused the void to tremble, freezing layers of frost!
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the hall became quite quiet.
All eyes fell on the young man in gray clothes and white hair.
"What an amazing sword energy..."
Chen Xi looked at him from a distance, but without seeing the other person's face clearly, he felt a stinging pain in front of his eyes and a layer of trembling goosebumps all over his body.
It was a kind of absolute suppression, which made Chen Xi feel helpless to resist.
Who is this guy?
This aura is too powerful and fierce...
Chen Xi was shocked and doubtful.
"Hua Jiankong!"
When Zhou Zhili saw the other party, his expression suddenly relaxed.
However, the faces of important figures like Jiang Yu, Xuanyuan Pojun, Qiu Wancen, and Shen Haotian showed a hint of resentment.
Hua Jiankong, the dean's personal disciple, has followed the dean for ten thousand years and has never lost a single battle. He is the most famous master of Daohuang Academy.
Some people say that he possesses the cultivation level of the Holy Immortal Perfection Realm, while others say that he has already entered the level of the Half-Step Immortal King. As for what kind of cultivation level he possesses, no one can say clearly.
Seeing Hua Jiankong's arrival, the big shots didn't understand that the dean was also involved, otherwise Hua Jiankong would not have joined in the fun with his aloof temperament.
Sure enough, the next moment Na Hua Jiankong walked to Zhou Zhili and handed over a jade slip: "This is the master's instructions."
After that, he turned around and left.
From beginning to end, he didn't even look at anyone in the hall. He looked aloof and cold, like a lone wolf walking alone.
It wasn't until Hua Jiankong's back disappeared and the bone-chilling cold atmosphere in the hall returned to normal.
"Look, what did the dean say?"
"Weird, I remember that the dean has not interfered in the affairs of the college for thousands of years. What decree was issued today, and even the cold-faced boy Hua Jiankong was required to bring it in person?"
"Actually, I have a bad feeling..."
During the discussion, everyone looked at Zhou Zhili.
Zhou Zhili, however, looked at the jade slip in his hand. When he saw the contents clearly, he was slightly startled, his face was even a little stiff, and he remained silent for a long time.
Seeing this, the others looked at each other, feeling a little strange.
As the head of the outer courtyard of Daohuang Academy, and as a semi-immortal king-level being who has been famous for a long time, Zhou Zhili has always had a calm and severe nature in the past.
But now, he seems to be shocked?
What's going on? Could the contents of that jade slip still shock Zhou Zhili's Taoist heart?
"Boy Zhou, hurry up and tell me what the dean's instructions are." Qiu Wancen frowned.
Others also spoke one after another, becoming more and more curious about the contents of the jade slip, even the disciples such as Fozi Zhenlu, Ji Xuanbing, and Zhao Mengli who had passed the examination were no exception.
"The dean said..."
Zhou Zhili took a deep breath, then raised his head and looked at everyone present, with a hint of unspeakable complex emotions in his voice, "He does not agree with any teacher in the academy accepting Chen Xi as his direct disciple. Let's put this matter aside for later."
Reconsideration."
