As soon as Zhou Zhili's voice fell, the entire hall fell into silence.
No one expected that the dean would issue such a decree at this moment and not agree to allow any teacher in the college to accept Chen Xi as his direct disciple!
what on earth is it?
Everyone was confused, and their faces became a little confused.
You know, Chen Xi ranked first overall in this assessment! The "praise from the gods" he aroused went beyond the level of resonance between heaven and earth!
For such an unparalleled talent, as long as he nods his head, no teacher in the college will be able to refuse to be his mentor.
On the other hand, in order to accept him as his direct disciple, big figures in the academy such as Shen Haotian, Xuanyuan Pojun, Jiang Yu, etc. all swarmed in, looking like they were trying to steal Chen Xi's head. This shows that Chen Xi
His performance in the assessment was so dazzling that these big guys no longer cared about their status and appearance.
But now, they were fighting for it, but they were told that no one was allowed to accept Chen Xi as a disciple!
This sudden change caused the big shots to be stunned, frowning and thinking hard, but they couldn't think of a reason.
The disciples such as Fozi Zhenlu, Ji Xuanbing, Zhao Mengli and others were also astonished. Originally, they were all envious of Chen Xi. After all, not everyone can win the favor of such a big shot.
The true laws of the Buddha are not good.
Neither can Ji Xuanbing, who comes from an imperial family.
Zhao Mengli, a descendant of the True Phoenix, is not good enough.
None of the five hundred disciples present who had successfully passed the three rounds of assessments were qualified, except Chen Xi!
However, a decree issued by the dean made it impossible for Chen Xi to become a direct disciple of any teacher. This naturally made the disciples shocked and confused.
Only Zuo Qiuyin was very excited, even ecstatic. He knew very well that if Chen Xi became the direct disciple of a certain big boss, it would be very difficult for the Zuo Qiu family to deal with him again.
But things are different now. Chen Xi cannot become a disciple of any teacher, which means that after he enters the academy, he will be alone and no different from other ordinary students!
At that time, the Zuoqiu clan will deal with him secretly and no longer have to worry about any big shot defending Chen Xi!
Not to mention the reactions of others, when he heard the news, Chen Xi was also stunned and frowned. He was far from angry and could not be happy at all.
He just didn't understand why the dean, who had never seen the beginning or end of the dragon, issued such a decree for himself at this moment. Why?
I am number one!
How could you be treated like this?
Chen Xi couldn't understand and felt that he was being treated seriously unfairly at this moment.
"No, the dean personally asked Hua Jiankong to come here. His purpose couldn't be that simple."
Wang Daolu frowned and said in deep thought, "Even if you want to suppress Chen Xi's arrogance and temper Chen Xi's character, you will not issue such a decree at such a critical moment."
As soon as these words came out, other big shots also agreed. They felt that this decree was too strange, so they felt a little stunned.
"What's so hard to guess about this is that the dean felt that he was not qualified to serve as Chen Xi's mentor, so as not to mislead the disciples, so he hurriedly issued such a decree."
Xuanyuan Pojun snorted coldly. He was quite depressed when he learned that he could not accept Chen Xi as his direct disciple, and there was some dissatisfaction in his words.
Others couldn't help but smile when they heard this.
"This is biased. I think the dean should have other arrangements for Chen Xi's future practice. Otherwise, there is no need for Na Hua Jiankong to come in person."
Shen Haotian, the dean of the Alchemy Academy, spoke, arousing the approval of many people.
"Other arrangements? I don't think so. Didn't you hear what the dean said. He wants to discuss it later. It means that he has not yet made a final decision about Chen Xi's arrangements at this time."
Jiang Yu spoke. She was dressed in a moon-white Taoist robe, with a dignified and plain appearance. Her words and deeds were crisp and clear, never sloppy, and she looked quite strong.
"Oh, the dean is really fooling around. He hasn't appeared for so many years, and when he appears, he issues such an inexplicable order. If he has any ideas, he can explain it in detail, but it is so confusing that it is really sad.
Brain."
Qiu Wancen said with a sad face. He was quite dissatisfied with the dean in his words, and even said that the dean was being ridiculous, but no one thought there was anything wrong with it.
Because it's very simple. As senior veterans of Daohuang Academy, they all know the dean's temperament, which can be summed up in eight words: "unconstrained and unconventional."
To put it simply, he never follows the rules and often does things that are almost random.
After analyzing and analyzing, no reason was found, which not only made the big shots quite depressed, but also made Chen Xi quite speechless.
As for the disciples of Buddha Zhenlu, it is impossible to figure it out.
Finally, Zhou Zhili spoke and made the final decision, "Okay, let's put it aside for now and solve the problems of other disciples first."
Speaking of this, he swept away Shen Haotian's big shots and said with a smile, "Why don't you just pick a direct disciple among the other disciples?"
As soon as these words came out, all the disciples were refreshed, and their eyes were full of eagerness.
"Well, the disciples who passed the examination this time are all very good, but my direct disciples are not so easy to accept. Let me go back and think about it again."
Unexpectedly, Shen Haotian shook his head, didn't even glance at the other disciples, turned around and walked away.
"The Buddha's True Law is not bad, but it's a pity that he comes from the Buddhist world and has long been favored by the old man Kudu in the inner courtyard; Zhao Mengli is also good, but it's a pity that she is a descendant of the True Phoenix. If that old phoenix finds out that I am stealing a disciple from her, it will be very dangerous.
You must burn down my dojo; Ji Xuanbing is also good, but it’s a pity that in the imperial lineage, only the old monster Ji from the inner courtyard can train him..."
Xuanyuan Pojun opened his mouth and evaluated the three disciples. After each evaluation, he sighed and finally turned his attention to Xuanyuan Yun, "Forget it, I can only teach this useless little kid like my Xuanyuan clan.
"
Then, he said to Xuanyuan Yun: "In three days, you come to my dojo."
As soon as these words came out, it was tantamount to accepting Xuanyuan Yun as his direct student, making all the other disciples envious.
"Thank you uncle for helping me!"
Xuanyuan Yun was shocked, looked excited, and bowed to salute.
"Oh, my ancestors and grandsons have become my direct students, what the hell is going on..." Xuanyuan Pojun shook his head and sighed, turned around and left in an instant.
Next, many big figures selected their direct students.
Like Mu Yuchong, he was selected by the chief instructor of the inner courtyard of the Mu family. Jiang Canghai, Wan Qiyan, Zhong Lizun and others were also selected by the elders of their respective clans.
There are also many big shots who turned around and left. It's not that they don't accept direct disciples, but they look down on the young people present. After all, when they reach their level, the conditions for accepting disciples become extremely harsh, even if those present are the most powerful disciples in the immortal world.
The top young generation pride, they will not make such a hasty decision.
After all, being a direct disciple means passing on their own mantle, so how can they give it to others so easily?
In the end, only a few were selected, which meant that most of the other disciples could only start as ordinary students in the outer courtyard.
Soon, the big boys from the college who came to snatch the disciples had all left, and only Zhou Zhili, Wang Daolu, and the teachers from the outer college were left in the hall.
At this point, the eager atmosphere in the hall became quite deserted.
Although they were not chosen as direct disciples by those big shots, most of the disciples present did not feel disappointed. As long as they could enter Daohuang Academy, they still worried about not finding a mentor?
As the number one academy in the immortal world, it is a great opportunity to become one of its disciples. We are all the proud disciples who were forced to fight from the single-plank bridge with thousands of troops. Naturally, it is very clear that as a Tao Emperor
What kind of honor and status does it mean to be a student of the college?
Of course, there were also some disciples who were very disappointed, but when they saw that the first place Chen Xi was in the same situation as themselves, they felt relieved and even felt a lot of sympathy for Chen Xi.
Perhaps, in their opinion, Chen Xi at this moment should be the most depressed, lost, and saddest person.
Unfortunately, they all thought wrong.
Chen Xi is not depressed, disappointed, or sad, but he is not happy, excited, or happy either. In short, his mentality is quite calm.
Before he took the assessment, he had no hope of ranking.
After taking the exam, he didn't think about becoming the personal disciple of any big shot.
He came to Daohuang Academy just to have an identity that would make Zuoqiu clan fearful.
As for cultivation and inheritance, he has not yet integrated the "Sword of Water" in the Wuji Divine Treasure, so how can he be interested in other inheritances?
In short, because Chen Xi carries the true inheritance of the Wuji Divine Artifact left by the master of the cave, he doesn’t care too much about whether he can obtain other inheritances. He doesn’t care about inheritance, and naturally he doesn’t care much about whether he can become a direct disciple of a certain big shot.
Feel.
"Okay, all the assessment matters have come to an end. Next..."
At this time, Zhou Zhili smiled slightly and waved his sleeves and robes. Deep in the hall, the bells were ringing loudly, causing the void to twist and rise, and the divine light filled the air.
Then, a towering bronze gate hundreds of feet tall appeared out of thin air!
"Daohuang Academy, welcome everyone to become a member!"
Whoosh!
All the eyes in the main hall were looking at the hundred-foot-tall bronze portal at the same moment. Their eyes gradually became hot, and even their breathing became faintly rapid.
Daohuang Academy, the holy land of practice that countless strong men of the young generation in the three worlds dream of, finally opened its doors to them at this time!
