In the afternoon.
Jiang Yang and the others were studying when Old Cao walked in with a big belly and a smile.
Everyone in the class felt their hearts thump as they had a bad feeling.
It couldn't be helped. Every time Old Cao revealed such a smile, it was definitely not a good thing.
This was a lesson learned over a long period of time.
"Ahem."
"Students, there's something. The school has discussed with the other schools and organized an activity.”
"The students from the various schools who have applied for the academy will have a pre-exam competition. It can also be considered as training for you in advance.”
"Now, who wants to sign up?"
Everyone in the class looked surprised, as if they hadn't expected this.
This was a little abnormal. It didn't seem like Old Cao's style.
Seeing that no one spoke, Old Cao felt a little awkward. He deliberately cleared his throat and coughed.
Everyone came back to their senses and looked at Old Cao.
"Who's signing up?"
Li Mingjun hesitated for a moment before turning to Jiang Yang and asking,"Jiang Yang, do you want to sign up?"
He knew Jiang Yang's strength. F * ck, how terrifying!
With Jiang Yang's strength, he could easily take first place.
Jiang Yang shook his head, indicating that he did not want to go.
What for?
There was no benefit to it. He had to find something to collect after school.
Old Cao saw that no one had any reaction and knew that if he didn't release some important news, no one would sign up.
"Those who want to go, hurry up. The rewards this time are very generous…"
Old Cao deliberately paused for a moment to keep them in suspense.
As expected, when they heard that the rewards were bountiful, many people's eyes became fiery.
Old Cao smiled proudly and said unhurriedly,"In this competition, the first place will get a Commander tier monster core and a B grade alloy weapon. The second place will get an Elite tier monster core and a C grade alloy weapon. The third place will get an Elite tier monster core.”
Hearing Old Cao's words, the class immediately became lively. There were discussions and heated gazes.
Jiang Yang was also extremely surprised. This was truly a big deal.
A Commander-tier monster was equivalent to a Rank-5 or 6 martial artist. Moreover, it was a monster core, which was even rarer.
Jiang Yang wouldn't be surprised if it was a Commander-tier monster's corpse, but if it was a monster core, it would be a different story.
A Normal-level monster's core was between 10,000 to 50,000, while an Elite-level monster's core was between 50,000 to 300,000.
Even the weakest core of a Commander tier monster was worth 500,000.
As for alloy weapons, a B-grade alloy weapon was sold for 300,000 to 500,000 yuan.
He had some understanding of alloy weapons.
Alloy weapons were made of various ores and were forged using special methods. They were sharp and extremely sturdy.
The highest grade alloy weapons were S grade, and the lowest grade was D grade. B grade alloy weapons were already very rare.
Was the school crazy?
He was a little suspicious of this competition.
Was it really a simple competition? Why would a simple competition require such a large amount of money?
However…he was tempted.
He had to admit that he was tempted. Once he took back the reward for first place, the honing of the skull would be stable.
"I'll sign up." Jiang Yang immediately raised his hand.
Li Mingjun was a little stunned. Wasn't there no registration?
Jiang Yang, you…have changed!
Immediately after, Li Mingjun also hurriedly raised his hand.
With such a generous reward, only a fool would not sign up.
The monster's core contained pure spiritual energy, which was of great use to both martial artists and supernatural beings.
There might be no hope for first place, but there was still hope for second and third place.
Although his family did not lack money, this thing was not something that could be bought with money.
A few people in the class also raised their hands. Clearly, they did not want to give up.
However, a few people gave up unwillingly.
Those who had just signed up were either ninth-grade Martial Apprentices or first-grade Extraordinaires who had been immersed in the realm for many years.
There was no doubt that they couldn't even defeat the students from their own class, let alone those from other schools.
With their strength, they would only be looking for abuse if they went up. They were completely a foil to the other party.
Old Cao did a rough count. There were seven people who had signed up. It was not a small number, and it was even a little unexpected.
Looking at the seven people who had registered, he smiled and said,"Come out with me. We still need to go through a round of screening.”
As he said this, Old Cao looked at Jiang Yang meaningfully.
The few of them followed Old Cao to the field in confusion. As soon as they arrived, they saw dozens of people.
A man with his hair combed back walked over with a smile. He patted Old Cao's shoulder and said with a smile,"Haha, Old Cao, you're a little slow.”
Then, he turned his gaze to Jiang Yang and the others, sizing them up.
"Yo, Old Cao, your class isn't bad, but…you're still a little lacking compared to us.”
“……”
Old Cao looked extremely displeased.
"Hmph, Guo Hailong, don't be happy too early. The outcome is still uncertain.”Old Cao said indignantly.
"Haha, I hope so. But the one who defeated our class will definitely not be your class.”
Guo Hailong smiled smugly and left.
"Let's go."
Seeing that Old Cao was not in a good mood, they tactfully followed him quietly.
Jiang Yang pulled Li Mingjun aside and whispered,"Who was that teacher just now?”
Li Mingjun looked at Jiang Yang in surprise." You don't know?”
"F * ck, no way. Jiang Yang, you're too much of a homebody.”
"This is Old Cao's sworn enemy. He doesn't get along with Old Cao. It looks like Old Cao has been insulted again.”
"You don't know this, but although Ms. Guo's class doesn't have good grades, the people in her class are either martial apprentices or supernatural beings.”
"The number of students who enter the university every year is the highest in Teacher Guo's class.”
……
The two of them soon arrived at the field.
Not long after, the dean came to the field with a big belly. After a formal speech, he left again with a big belly.
Jiang Yang also knew why he had brought them here.
It was impossible for everyone to participate in the joint competition between several schools. The school had given ten people a place.
However, there were no less than fifty people on the field.
A group of teachers gathered together to discuss the details of the competition.
Not long after, Old Cao walked over and said with a smile,"The results of the discussion are out. There are a total of sixty-two students who have signed up.”
"Just in time. Let's draw lots for the competition. We'll fight in pairs. First, we'll choose thirty-one people. Then, we'll draw lots. One person will take a bye, and sixteen people will be chosen. Then, we'll draw lots again to choose the top eight.”
"I hope that all seven of our class can enter. Work hard, young man.”Old Cao encouraged.
“……”
Jiang Yang stole a glance at Old Cao and wanted to say," What are you thinking about?"
However, it was not easy to say this, so Jiang Yang held it in.
Looking around, only he and Li Mingjun had any hope.
There were only ten people in total, but there were already five or six Rank-1 martial artists in the venue. In addition to some supernatural beings, ten spots were enough.
Jiang Yang was just about to ask Li Mingjun some questions when he saw Li Mingjun acting extremely strangely at the side and mumbling something.
"What are you doing?" Jiang Yang asked curiously.”
"Bless me, bless me…"
"Ah, I'm begging. Let me take a bye. Maybe I can get a spot.”
Jiang Yang was speechless.
Speechless!
You still believe in this?
Anyway, he didn't care. No one could beat him.
