"Brother Zhang, I wonder how many students there are in your academy?" Ye Wutian asked casually.

Zhang Ming thought about it and said, "There should be tens of thousands of students in school today."

"Ten thousand people? So many?" Ye Wutian was a little surprised. If this school was considered a force, it would have been a very terrifying force.

Zhang Ming smiled and said, "After all, this area is only ours, and our reputation ranks among the top three among the several university residences in the entire Chinese Empire."

"Then does your school belong to a certain force?" Ye Wutian asked again.

"All schools of learning are powerless and are even subject to the constraints of those major forces." Zhang Ming replied.

"What kind of constraint method?" Ye Wutian asked.

"There are no strong people in the heavenly realm allowed in all academic institutions. In other words, all students must leave the academic institutions after their cultivation reaches the perfection of the earth." Zhang Ming said.

Ye Wutian nodded to express his understanding. If this is not restricted, the accumulation of talents by these institutions over time would be equivalent to gathering all the casual cultivators together, and in the end they would inevitably grow into the largest power of the Chinese Empire, which would directly end up jeopardizing the status of the existing major forces.

Zhang Ming continued: "Generally, academic institutions are established: seven grades: junior, Xuanqian, Xuanzhong, Xuanhou, Earth, Earth, and Earth, and Earth. If you have reached the late stage of the Earth Realm, you can actually apply for graduation. Now the senior sister is doing graduation assessment."

"Did you take you out for training in the graduation assessment?" Ye Wutian was a little surprised.

Chen Xiaoyi, who was chatting with other students, heard the conversation between the two and turned around and said, "The graduation assessment is divided into many aspects, and the training of the students in the front class is only one of them."

"Does you have to pass the assessment before you can leave the academy?" Ye Wutian asked in confusion.

"Of course not. Any student can leave the institution at any time. If he leaves without passing the assessment, he will not get a graduation certificate." Chen Xiaoyi explained.

"What's the use of this graduation certificate?" Ye Wutian continued to ask.

"Of course it will be useful. This graduation certificate is divided into many levels. For example, after those students who have elected alchemy, weapon refining or array science pass the corresponding assessment, the graduation certificate obtained is more advanced than that of ordinary students. Even if they get the most ordinary graduation certificate, it is quite helpful for employment after graduation." Chen Xiaoyi said.

Ye Wutian felt a little ashamed when he heard this. College graduates from outside were trying to find jobs, but he didn't expect that the monks in the inner world would be worried about this kind of thing.

Of course, the essence of these two types of employment is different. External college graduates are to make a living, while the inner world is to find some major forces to seek refuge in. With a backer, the future path of cultivation will be guaranteed.

For example, if you surrender to the Sihai Chamber of Commerce, you can get the protection of the Sihai branches, and if you surrender to those families, you can get a salary according to your cultivation level every month. Of course, if you receive the benefits of others, you have to do things for others. No matter which force you join, you have to obey instructions and obey arrangements. Because of this, many people are unwilling to rely on others. They would rather be a casual cultivator in the world, be a free and easy bounty hunter, and mingle in the mercenary association.

"Senior sister, have you taken any elective courses?" the girl named Gu Mengyuan asked curiously.

"Of course, I have learned some basic skills in refining weapons and formations, and I have put in a lot of effort in refining alchemy. If I can pass the alchemy assessment in this graduation assessment, I will plan to participate in this year's alchemy competition." Chen Xiaoyi said.

"Alchemy competition? Is it just a comparison of alchemy?" Ye Wutian was a little curious.

Chen Xiaoyi nodded and said, "This alchemy competition is held every five years. The organizer is the authoritative Wuji Dan Sect of the Alchemy Dao. In fact, this alchemy competition is an alchemist assessment. Most alchemists participate in the competition not to get a ranking, but to obtain the alchemist status level through the assessment."

"Is there any reward?" Ye Wutian asked with concern.

"The alchemist's identity level is the best reward. The level proof issued by the Wuji Dan Sect is the most authoritative. Of course, if you can get a good ranking, you will also receive rewards such as alchemy furnaces." Chen Xiaoyi replied.

After hearing what Chen Xiaoyi said, Ye Wutian suddenly lost interest. Then, he returned to the topic and found out the relevant news about Tiantu Academy.

The group was moving forward while chatting, and before they knew it, the road under their feet had reached its end.

Chen Xiaoyi stopped and reminded everyone seriously: "Walk forward and officially enter the outer area of ​​Donggang Jedi. After entering, you may encounter attacks from spirit beasts at any time, and there may be eighth-level spirit beasts. Everyone should be cheered up and don't take it lightly." The next journey not only concerns her assessment, but also the lives of these young people. As the leader, she naturally cannot relax at all.

This entire Donggang Jedi is roughly divided into four major areas: marginal area, central peripheral area, central area, and core area.

Before, they were all the way to the edge of the Jedi, and the level of the spirit beasts would not exceed the sixth level. The end of the road under their feet, which is where everyone is currently located, is the junction between the edge area and the outer area. Because this training team has limited cultivation, they can only walk around this junction line. In this way, the highest level of the spirit beasts they encounter will not exceed the ninth level, which is relatively safe.

As for the location of the Thunder Tribulation Mountain, it is located almost deep in the outer area and borders the central area. There is already a star holy beast in that area.

Hearing Chen Xiaoyi's reminder, all the students were energetic, and their faces were filled with nervousness, excitement and expectation. For these students who have lived in the academy for many years, the fresh world in front of them is full of unknown challenges and exciting battles. They are full of enthusiasm and eager to try. However, after they have completed this journey, all their enthusiasm will disappear. They will realize the cruelty of this world and recognize what blood and killing are. This is also a stage that every practitioner must go through. I believe that the academy arranged these monks who have just entered the realm of the ground to carry out this practical experience, in order to erase their innocence and let these tender embryos withstand a storm. Only in this way can they grow into a qualified monk healthy and thriving.

Seeing that everyone was cheering up, Chen Xiaoyi officially announced: "Go!"

So, the group led by Chen Xiaoyi and advanced into the mountains.

After walking carefully, I did not encounter a single spirit beast. The rookies' spirits that had just been cheered up were obviously a little relaxed.

Zhang Ming couldn't help chatting with Ye Wutian again.

"Brother Ye, since you are a casual cultivator, you should have been here before?" he asked.

"I'm not hiding it from Brother Zhang, it's my first time here." Ye Wutian replied truthfully.

"You dare to act alone for the first time when you come. You are too brave, right?" The thin man named Tang Tao exclaimed.

"I think Brother Ye must have had experience in fighting spirit beasts before, so he dared to act alone." The big man named Zhao Mingtian guessed.

"I did have some experiences." Ye Wutian said casually.

"Brother Ye, let's teach us your combat experience!" Zhang Ming said with anticipation. Although Chen Xiaoyi had already told them a lot of his practical experience along the way, these young people and Chen Xiaoyi's cultivation level were not at the same level, and it was difficult to experience it in an immersive way. Ye Wutian's age and cultivation level in front of him were similar to theirs, so they naturally longed for Ye Wutian's advice.

However, Wang Yingying said disdainfully: "What's so great? We often fight spirit beasts in practical classes!"

Chen Xiaoyi quickly reminded: "There is one thing that everyone must remember that the spirit beasts in the school that are for your actual practice have been kept in captivity for a long time, and their wildness has almost been erased. They are far less cruel than these spirit beasts in the wild, so you should not take it for granted that spirit beasts are so easy to deal with." As she said that, she looked at Ye Wutian and said: "Xiao Ye is about the same age and cultivation as you, so you can listen to his actual combat experience."

Wang Yingying curled her lips and said nothing. Of course, she was not interested in listening to Ye Wutian's combat experience.

"Brother Ye, then you can talk to us quickly." Zhao Mingtian said expectantly.

Everyone looked at Ye Wutian with a look of listening attentively.

"Since everyone is interested, I'll talk about it." Ye Wutian thought for a while and said, "Actually, there are not many spiritual beasts I have fought with, otherwise I'll talk about the Iron-Backed Cang Bear."

"Iron-backed Cang Bear? We once fought with this spirit beast in a practical class, but I don't know how powerful the Iron-backed Cang Bear is in the wild." Zhang Ming said curiously.

Ye Wutian explained: "Although this iron-backed Cang Bear is a seventh-level spirit beast, because its defense is extremely powerful, it is unlikely that ordinary early-stage cultivators in the ground level will break through its defense."

"It's not as mysterious as you said, right? The iron-backed bear in our actual class was easily solved by us." Wang Yingying said proudly.

"Yingying, in the actual combat class, the iron-backed bear was covered with scars. We just attacked the wounds on its body with a speculative approach and barely shot it to death." Zhang Ming said.

"Even if it is not injured, I don't think it's much better." Wang Yingying argued.

Ye Wutian smiled and said, "This iron-backed Cang Bear is a earth-based spirit beast. Its skin and flesh are already quite strong. In addition, it can erect a mane to release spiritual energy to display a defensive light shield. I am afraid that the mid-stage cultivator of the Earth Realm will be very difficult to deal with."

"Xiao Ye is right. If any of you meets the uninjured Iron-backed Cangxiong alone, you will have to escape and survive." Chen Xiaoyi reminded seriously.

"I didn't expect this iron-backed bear to be such a powerful spirit beast." Zhang Ming exclaimed.
