Chapter 16 College Admissions (I)
Today is the day for West Lake College to enroll students.
The West Lake in Hangzhou is extremely lively today. The entire West Lake is surrounded by several large families and no one is allowed to enter.
All stalls and shops along the West Lake were ordered to close for several days until the ban was lifted.
The owners of the stalls and shops were naturally unhappy and went to the government to file a complaint. However, the government had already received notices from all the major schools, stating that the West Lake was recruiting students during those days, so in order to avoid affecting ordinary people, it was better to close the shops.
People in this world know that there are monsters and gods, but the gods they think of are cultivators.
Generally speaking, ordinary people have no access to immortal cultivation, and it is not promoted in the market, but the big families in the city are more or less related to cultivators, and usually send some of their children to those sects to study and practice.
Or simply put, some big families are themselves cultivation families, and some are just the outer sects developed by the immortal sects themselves, which is another name in the secular world. They are responsible for carrying out ordinary store management, fund management, and backup savings for the sect, or directly recruiting some talented disciples in the secular world.
Therefore, the blockade around West Lake is very effective.
Long Pinxuan stood on the balcony of the only open building outside the West Lake, looked at the surrounding blockade lines, and nodded with satisfaction.
Asking them for help was indeed the right choice. Humans are more systematic and manageable than monsters!
Xiaoqing beside him pouted and looked unhappy.
Originally, the dean had promised to reward her with a pill of elixir if she recommended a student, but now that has been ruined. Except for the dragon-bearing bear who entered the academy before, the students who enter the academy in the future will have nothing to do with her.
Long Pinxuan saw Xiaoqing's expression and knew what she was thinking. He smiled and said, "I will not forget your Huiling Pill. After the academy's enrollment is completed this time, go and collect some herbs for Huiling Pill and I will refine it for you right away!"
Xiaoqing looked better. Yes, at least she still had one, while others didn’t!
The West Lake is divided into two areas. The left half of the arc-shaped area is full of young humans, and the right half of the arc-shaped area is full of monsters.
In the past, cultivators would kill monsters immediately upon seeing them, but today, all the young disciples have been warned not to emit even the slightest murderous aura, and not to resort to violence at the enrollment ceremony. Once discovered, not only would they be expelled, but the entire sect would also be implicated.
You should know that this time the enrollment is not only for humans, but also for the entire city of Hangzhou, and any race can participate.
Those young disciples have also heard that the dean of West Lake Academy is extremely powerful. Even the elders of the sect only received a word or two of advice and then went back to seclude themselves and prepare for a breakthrough. If they study in West Lake Academy, their cultivation will definitely improve rapidly.
So they behaved particularly well, hoping to leave a good impression on the dean whom they had never met before.
On the other side, there were many kinds of monsters, some transformed and some not, big and small, even several monster kings came, all of them had heard about the last time Long Pinxuan gave a lecture, which created a miracle in the entire monster world.
In one class, almost all monsters have been promoted!
You know, it's very difficult for monsters to level up, especially in this world. Monsters have too many natural enemies. Once their cultivation reaches a certain bottleneck, they may be trapped for a hundred to eighty years, or even thousands of years.
No wonder some thousand-year-old monsters eat humans, there is no other way. If they don't eat humans and suck blood, let alone level up, their cultivation may even regress, because their lifespan is limited!
Many practitioners were looking at the monster area.
"Is that a snake demon? It's half-transformed. That tail, tsk tsk!"
"I recognize that monster. I failed to catch it in Sanhe Village last time, and I chopped off one of its legs!"
"And that one is a rabbit spirit, right?"
"How come that monster looks just like a human?"
"That's a giant demon in disguise!"
"If so many monsters attack Hangzhou..."
Many of the students were silent.
They knew there were a lot of monsters, but they didn't know there were so many in Hangzhou!
There are many things they haven't seen.
If these monsters eat people and suck blood, then the sects in Hangzhou will definitely not be able to withstand them. Even if they can resist them, they will suffer heavy losses, and they may even end up losing both sides.
At this time, a voice reached everyone's ears.
“I am very happy to see so many colleagues wanting to join Westlake College today. As the dean of Westlake College, I feel honored!”
Long Pinxuan jumped up from the balcony, stepped on the auspicious clouds, rose into the air, and slowly floated to the top of the West Lake, looking at the people and monsters below.
When the monsters saw Long Pinxuan, they all shouted respectfully, "Greetings, Dean!"
The humans were startled, but then they also shouted, "Meet the dean!"
The sound was particularly loud, trying to drown out the sound from the monster.
The monsters near the human area were naturally unwilling to give up, and wanted to make louder noises to suppress these weak humans, but then they heard Long Pinxuan cough twice.
"First of all, thank you very much for coming here to participate in the enrollment of West Lake College! But before the enrollment begins, I still want to talk about the enrollment rules."
“The admission rules are as follows:”
"This time we will recruit two classes, one for the beginner class of the human race, and one for the beginner class of the demon race!"
"Don't be too surprised. In my opinion, with all of your cultivation, even the highest demon king can only enter the beginner class in West Lake Academy!"
When these words came out, everyone was shocked, including the demons.
Even the Demon King can only be in the beginner class, how awesome is this beginner class!
The beginner class of the human race is comparable to the beginner class of the demon race.
In other words, if they can enter the beginner class of the human race, wouldn't they be on par with the demon king?
When the young human beings thought of this, their faces lit up and they became eager to take action.
Not to mention the human race, the monster area was also extremely excited. Once they entered the academy, the Monster King would be their classmates, classmates on an equal footing. Maybe they could even surpass the Monster King in the future!
Everyone, including the demon, became even more excited. They stared at Long Pinxuan with sharp eyes and listened to what he said.
Long Pinxuan continued,
"A class can recruit 20 students, but only those who have passed the assessment will be recruited. If the number of students who have passed the assessment is not full, then it is not full, and no additional students will be recruited!"
"So, this assessment is particularly important!"
"And for you, your qualifications and qualities are also very important!"
