[Endless Killing: My Fireball has a bug! – Chapter 722 Selection Trial! (2/2)]
On the display board, various words that seemed to carry glory were displayed.
In the center of those long display boards sat two commentators, one male and one female.
Behind the commentator, a giant screen suspended in the air displayed a nine-square grid, showing similar scenes.
After Ye Haiming and Jiao Zhengqing followed Teacher Xu to sit in the audience seats, they found that the equipment for watching the live broadcast had been prepared in the audience seats.
Not only can you clearly see the commentator’s explanation, but the image on the giant screen is also displayed quite clearly.
Even with a little operation, you can freely choose the live screen you want to watch.
It was still early in the morning and the on-campus trials of various colleges and universities had not yet begun.
Therefore, the two commentators were only introducing the competition rules of each college’s internal selection competition and the situation of the outstanding students in each school.
Occasionally, the performance of each school in previous years will be mentioned, as well as the predictions for the next year.
After listening for a while, Ye Haiming and Jiao Zhengqing had a general understanding of the situation in the origin plane.
First of all, in addition to the central area, the origin plane is divided into quite a number of areas.
Among them, the areas that have prospered are Districts 1 to 10.
Among all the college trials, only the top ten districts were worth watching.
Most of the areas at the back are basically just running along.
Only areas that have produced high-quality students will be occasionally mentioned by the commentator.
Ye Haiming looked at the commentator’s condition and suddenly felt in his heart –
It’s not without reason that every school and every teacher likes top students.
Excellent students can bring honor to the school.
That is something that poor students cannot bring.
So you want schools and top students to be treated equally?
Totally impossible.
In addition, regarding the 10,000 places to be selected for the selection competition, except for Daqian College and Central College, the central Ministry of Education does not allocate a certain number of places to colleges and universities in other regions.
It is up to the college students themselves to fight for it.
Of the 10,000 places that were qualified for the finals, 8,000 were initially allocated to Daqian Academy and Benyuan Academy.
The remaining 2,000 will be left for other universities to compete for.
When the selection begins, all college students will have to enter a selection test tower issued by the Ministry of Education.
In fact, it is similar to the trial tower that college students usually use.
However, the selection test tower is announced uniformly by the Ministry of Education.
This means that the regular test towers taken by colleges and universities are equivalent to regular tests.
The selection test tower for the 䀴selection competition is equivalent to the unified examination paper for the college entrance examination.
The selection rules for this year are:
The first ten levels of the Selection Trial Tower are just appetizers.
Starting from the eleventh level, it is the key to determine the number of selected places.
The final 2,000 selected places are based on the rankings in the Selection Trial Tower.
The more levels of the trial tower you pass, the higher your ranking will be.
If the number of levels is the same, the one with the shorter clearance time will have a higher ranking.
This is what the commentator said.
Xu Wenjian, who was standing by, knew that Ye Haiming and Jiao Zhengqing were not from the origin plane, so he gave them a special explanation:
“Only players who have made it to the eleventh floor will be ranked and recorded, and will later become candidates for selection.”
“If there are more than 2,000 players who eventually make it to the 11th floor, the top 2,000 will be selected based on their rankings.”
“If the number of players who finally enter the eleventh floor is less than two thousand…”
Xu Wenjian lowered his voice: “For example, if only 1,800 people passed the eleventh level, then only those 1,800 college students would be selected.”
“The extra 200 places will be evenly distributed between Daqian College and Benyuan College…”
Speaking of this, the slightly plump teacher Xu nodded and whispered, “The rules are the rules, but for those universities, if they can’t even get 2,000 places, it’s really…humiliating…”
“In the entire history of the Origin Plane, there have only been two such trials. Because the difficulty of the Trial Tower was extremely high, students from various colleges and universities did not get all the places.”
“Generally speaking, there are still many students in various colleges and universities who can pass the eleventh level.”
“Especially in recent years, the Ministry of Education has increased its support for colleges and universities in other regions.”
“I remember that at this time last year, there were more than 5,000 students who made it to the final ranking list.”
Ye Haiming and Jiao Zhengqing nodded after hearing this.
However, Xu Wenjian added: “But there may not be 5,000 this year.”
Teacher Xu also nodded: “Every five years, the difficulty of the selection will increase.”
“Plus, the number of students on the list last time was as high as 5,000. I heard that the Ministry of Education has increased the difficulty of selection this year.”
“It is estimated that the number of students who made the list this year will not exceed 3,000.”
As he spoke, Teacher Xu smiled again: “But students like us from Benyuan College and Daqian College hope that the number of students from other colleges on the list is as small as possible every year.”
“It would be best if the number could be less than 2,000. This way, there would be more places to be given to Benyuan College and Daqian College.”
Jiao Zhengqing nodded thoughtfully.
Ye Haiming suddenly asked: “Can Brother Jiao and I participate in this selection?”
Teacher Xu was stunned by the question.
Xu Wenjian thought about it seriously and shook his head: “You are in the central area. If you participate in the selection as a student of Daqian Academy or Qibenyuan Academy, it will be different from the selection of other schools.”
After thinking for a while, he asked again: “Do you want to participate in the selection of other colleges and universities, or the selection of Daqian College and Benyuan College in the Central District?”
Ye Haiming thought about it and asked, “The difficulty of the selection in the central district is different from that in other districts, right?”
Xu Wenjian nodded: “Actually, the difficulty is not much different, but generally speaking, the selections in other areas are slightly easier.”
Ye Haiming and Jiao Zhengqing exchanged glances, then looked at Xu Wenjian sheepishly: “That…”
“If the two of us want to participate in the college selection in other districts, will it be troublesome?”
“Of course not.” Xu Wenjian shook his head immediately. “In fact, for other colleges and universities, they really hope that high-quality students can perform well in the selection test.”
“After all, this is a grand event for all planes.”
“It is an honor for our school to have students who perform well, and next year’s enrollment will be much smoother.”
“However… the origin plane is still somewhat exclusive after all.”
“So if it were to become known that a school actually invited students from non-origin planes to participate in the competition for the sake of honor, a large number of players would start to ridicule the school.”
“For example, Daqian College and Benyuan College don’t care that much about the so-called ‘ridicule’. After all, given their status, they won’t have any trouble recruiting students. Instead, students are racking their brains to get into these two colleges…”
“For schools in other districts, they would be very concerned about the ‘ridicule’.”
“However, if the students are really good enough, some universities don’t care about being ridiculed by the public.”
Having said that, Xu Wenjian thought again that Ye Haiming and Jiao Zhengqing’s performance might not be that outstanding…
On the contrary, if he cannot get past the eleventh floor, it is quite possible that he will be lost in the crowd.
So he added: “Of course, for those students who are indistinguishable from the crowd and do not attract public attention, they will not be ridiculed by the public, and the school will not care about them either.”
Then he asked me, “Are you sure you want to go to other colleges and participate in the selection trials in other districts?”
