The Assessment Begins (1)
"From now on, we're teammates," Ji Chen said. We want to be the champion of the freshmen assessment."
"We want the championship." The three of them shouted at the same time. Their relationship instantly improved, and Xiaoxiao was naturally the happiest. She finally felt that Ji Chen and Wang Dong had sincerely accepted her. Hence, strength was always the most direct and effective way to speak between soul masters.
Shrek Academy's assessment area was located in the middle north of the spirit system, adjacent to the spirit fight area. Compared to the spirit fight area, the assessment area was much larger. To the students of Shrek Academy's outer court, this was a paradise for outstanding students to showcase themselves, but it was also a nightmare for students with lower cultivation bases. Every year, a large number of students would be eliminated because they could not pass the assessment. Among them, most of the assessments were conducted in this assessment area.
The assessment area was oval, not like the spirit fight area which was like a stadium surrounded by walls, but rather an open space. There was a circle of low walls on the outside, and the interior was divided into areas by partition boards. These partition boards could be disassembled at any time to change the size of the area.
In the past years, the new student assessment was the most divided assessment area. Not only because of the large number of new students, but also because the destructive power and attack range of the new students were limited. They did not need too much area to display their abilities.
The entire assessment area was about 20,000 square meters. At this moment, it had been divided into 50 areas. Each area was about 400 square meters, and it was a square that was 20 meters long. This was more than enough for freshmen who only had one or two rings.
After the intense grouping in the morning, the afternoon assessment officially began. Because today was the first day of the assessment, in order to let the new students get used to it first, each group could leave after only one round of the assessment today. The academy sent out 50 teachers to each of the 50 regions to register for the assessment. The participants for today's assessment had already been divided into groups by drawing lots at noon. They would try their best to ensure that the teams of the same class would not meet in the next ten round-robin matches.
Other than the 22 groups of members in the freshman class, the other classes generally had more than 30 groups. Unless it was a student who performed particularly poorly during the freshman period, the teachers of the freshman class generally would not easily eliminate the students before the freshman assessment. They would always give them a chance to accept the assessment.
In the end, there were a total of 310 groups of students participating in the new student assessment, totaling 930 people. Among these 310 groups of students, only 150 groups would be able to stay and officially become first year students to continue learning. The rest would be eliminated.
The competition in Shrek Academy was undoubtedly fierce and cruel. However, it was precisely because of this that the students could work harder under the tense atmosphere and stimulate their potential. Thus, Shrek Academy's eternal victory was formed.
There were a total of 50 regions for the freshmen assessment, which meant that each region was assigned to six or seven teams of students to participate. Not only today, but tomorrow, they would still have to compete with the other teams in the same area. After all of them met, they would be regrouped and finally complete the ten matches for each team.
Ji Chen and the other two were assigned to zone 33. After lunch, the three of them returned to their dorm and meditated for a while before heading over. The zones were easy to find, and each zone was clearly marked. Soon, they found their zone.
The students from the other classes who were also participating in the competition had also arrived. Some of them looked nervous, while others were rubbing their fists. Everyone was eleven or twelve years old, and they could not hide anything in their hearts. When they looked at each other, they clearly revealed hostility. After all, it was very likely that only half of them would be able to stay. Although there were as many as ten matches in the assessment, each match was equivalent to determining their future.
"All new students, please pay attention. All new students, please pay attention. Please immediately enter the assessment area and prepare to participate in the new student assessment. There were still ten minutes left to enter the venue. If they missed the ten minutes, they would be considered to have forfeited the assessment.”
A loud broadcast sounded throughout the entire outer court, and the sound was enough to spread to every corner of the outer court. The freshmen's expressions also became serious. Their first assessment was about to arrive. It would be a lie to say that they were not nervous.
Xiaoxiao and Wang Dong nodded at Ji Chen at the same time, and the three of them put their palms together again. Although they were young, they all knew that it might not be difficult for them to pass the assessment. However, if they wanted to win the final championship, the most important thing was unity. Therefore, even Wang Dong had to restrain his pride.
The academy's announcement through the soul device was actually of little use. All the students had already arrived at their designated areas and were ready.
A teacher who looked to be around forty years old came to the thirty-third region. He looked very ordinary and did not have any overbearing aura. He had a smile on his face and looked very friendly. He was definitely different from Zhou Yi. After counting the number of people, he smiled and nodded."Very good. We have a total of six groups of students for the assessment. Let me introduce myself first. My name is Wang Yan, and I will be your teacher for the next two days.”
"Hello, Teacher Wang." The students hurriedly bowed to him.
Wang Yan chuckled." There's no need to be so polite. My teaching habit has always been to treat everyone as my friends. From now on until the end of the assessment, you're all my little friends. So, I don't want to see anyone get hurt. Although the assessment will determine whether you can continue your studies in Shrek Academy, I must remind everyone that this is an assessment. You must not injure your opponent. Otherwise, I can only apologetically ask him to leave and report to the academy.”
He spoke in a gentle and casual manner. He did not even mention the consequences of crippling his opponent. However, all the students who could enter Shrek Academy were intelligent people. Naturally, they understood the meaning behind his words and nodded in agreement.
"If that's the case, let's begin," Wang Yan said with a smile. The sooner the competition ends, the sooner you can go back and sharpen your guns. For young people like you, a sense of urgency is a good thing.”
As he spoke, he took out a folder and opened it. After taking a look, he looked up and said,"The first round of the first assessment, freshman class one: Jichen, Wang Dong, Xiaoxiao, Freshmen Class Three: Ouyang Junyi, Chen Junfeng, and Zhao Haochen. You can enter the arena now, each in a corner. I said you can only release your spirits after the competition begins. Enter." However, Wang Yan already knew the result of this match. With Monster Chen's support, it would be difficult for him to lose.
There were six groups of students. Today, the thirty-third server was going to have three matches. Wang Dong and the others didn't expect to be the first to appear. After exchanging a glance, they quickly walked into the northwest corner of the arena and stood still.
The three of them were positioned very carefully. Wang Dong stood at the front, Xiaoxiao was second, and Ji Chen stood in the corner at the back. In any case, he had positioned himself as a support. The three students on the other side naturally chose the southeast corner.
The three students from Class Three were all boys, and they were all good-looking. The tallest one was Ouyang Junyi, and he was also the best-looking. Although there was still a gap between him and Wang Dong, his figure looked much stronger than Wang Dong's. Chen Junfeng, who was beside him, was not short but very thin. Zhao Haochen, who was at the back, was a little fatty with a round belly and a simple smile on his face.
Seeing that both parties were in position, Wang Yan nodded and said,""The assessment begins."
