Chapter 293 Elimination
Li Yi roughly counted and found that there were twelve people who came to take part in the Golden Academy's special recruitment examination today alone. This number was already considered quite large. You have to know that today was not a special day, but just an ordinary day, and the people who came to take part in the examination had not made an appointment in advance.

After all, those who can come here must have taken the test in advance, and will come to take the assessment only if their cultivation values ​​meet the requirements. If they do not meet the requirements, they will not come here to humiliate themselves.

While Li Yi was looking at the people around him, others were also looking at him.

However, he was unremarkable and not eye-catching among those who took part in the special recruitment assessment. The most eye-catching ones were the man with purple eyes wearing sci-fi style armor and the man with a sun totem on his forehead. The next ones were the woman who was glowing and Jiang Mingtian who had just walked in with Li Yi.

It’s not that the rest of the people are mediocre, they just seem a little mediocre compared to these people.

Because everyone was observing each other, the originally spacious and empty hall seemed particularly quiet, and the atmosphere even became a little solemn. Fortunately, no one was hostile. After all, everyone came here to pass the assessment and enter the Golden Academy, and their goals did not conflict.

"Li Yi, that woman has been peeking at you." Suddenly, Lin Yue walked over and whispered in Li Yi's ear.

"I noticed it too." Li Yi said, looking up.

But the woman in plain clothes, who was emitting a halo all over her body, looked at him. However, the woman did not show any embarrassment, but just smiled slightly as a greeting.

"Maybe they are attracted by my handsome appearance. After all, there are some weird-looking guys here, and I am the only normal one." Li Yi said.

Lin Yue smiled and said, "Do you think it's possible? I feel that the aura of that woman is somewhat familiar. Do you still remember the bone mural at the training base? Look at the halo on her body. Isn't it very similar to the halo emitted from the bone mural?"

"Yes, a little bit." Li Yi said, "But I practice the White Bone Contemplation. To me, beauty is like dry bones. Don't worry, Sister Lin. I am not interested in her."

"I won't talk to you if you keep talking nonsense." Lin Yue rolled her eyes. "I just have a guess. When you took back the bone mural from the abandoned city, you only took back a broken section. Is it possible that there are other murals? It's just that the other murals did not appear in Tianchang City, but appeared in other places because of the Tianqing incident, and were obtained by other people?"

"The woman's aura is so similar to the bone mural. I suspect she has obtained other murals and comprehended other cultivation techniques, which is why she has achieved what she has today. You have the bone-viewing technique, so to some extent, you two will have some kind of energy induction, so she looks at you so frequently."

Li Yi was a little surprised and said, "Others just looked at me a few times, but you have analyzed so much, Sister Lin?"

However, he did not have any connection with the other party.

"Find an opportunity to contact him and ask him to confirm my guess." Lin Yue said.

Li Yi shook his head and said, "Even if it is confirmed to be true, what can we do? Let's forget it. Besides, who can come to participate in the assessment without some opportunities? If we ask questions repeatedly, it will easily offend people."

Lin Yue smiled and said, "I'm afraid that if you don't ask her, someone else will ask you. If my guess is confirmed to be correct, then she must have a rare mural in her hand. Aren't you going to cross the border in the future? Maybe we can cooperate. After all, rare objects and cross the border are inseparable. Without the energy supply of rare objects, it is difficult to open the door to cross the border."

"So Sister Lin is planning this." Li Yi suddenly realized.

But while the two were chatting, nine o'clock had already arrived.

When the time came, it was on time.

Three powerful auras appeared in everyone's perception.

The person in charge of the special recruitment assessment is here.

Three powerful soul realm masters?
Li Yi recognized this aura immediately, because he had come into contact with powerful soul realm masters many times and was quite sensitive to this kind of aura.

All of a sudden, in the silent hall, everyone's eyes were looking in the direction where the breath came from.

Along with a series of crisp footsteps that suddenly echoed, a voice came slowly: "In less than one morning, there are more than a dozen evolvers who have reached the standard. It seems that with the improvement of the cultivation system and the spread of various cultivation techniques, the so-called 'geniuses' are increasing. No wonder the special recruitment of the Golden Academy has changed from direct admission without test to requiring assessment now."

"It's a coincidence that you guys are here. I just received a notice yesterday saying that in addition to some normal tests, we have to assess the strength of the special recruits. People who are too weak cannot be admitted to the Golden Academy, lest they die miserably once they get into a fight with others. It's better for them to stay in the city and continue to hone their skills." Another voice sounded, and this voice was somewhat familiar.

It seemed to be the examiner that Professor Zhang greeted yesterday. His name seemed to be Shen Chong.

"Stop talking nonsense, both of you. Carry out the assessment quickly to avoid wasting everyone's time. We need to be efficient in doing things. If you keep procrastinating like this, the whole day will be gone." The last person to speak was a woman with a cold tone.

Soon, the three persons in charge of the assessment appeared in front of everyone.

"Since we are talking about efficiency, let's be direct. All the evolvers participating in the assessment whose cultivation values ​​exceed one thousand percent please stand up." The examiner who spoke was named Yu Hai, who was in his early thirties and looked like a lazy uncle.

"Don't worry. Although there are only three of us in charge of the assessment this time, the entire process will be live-streamed and monitored by people from all sides. It will be absolutely fair and impartial without any bias. No matter what family or background you come from, as long as you pass the assessment, you can enter the Golden Academy smoothly. If you fail the assessment, I'm sorry, you can only go back."

Shen Chong said calmly. He looked around and finally lingered on Li Yi for a moment.

He had already checked Li Yi's information before coming and knew that this was the person Professor Zhang had specifically asked him to take care of.

Soon, the twelve evolvers walked over together, each with anticipation in their eyes.

But the next moment, Yu Hai showed a smile: "Those practitioners whose cultivation values ​​are above 1,100% should take another step forward."

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of several evolvers suddenly changed.

what?
Isn't the standard for special recruitment to have a cultivation value of 1,000%? Why did it suddenly increase to 1,100%?
"The numerical standard was suddenly raised?" Li Yi's expression also changed. He also did not expect such a situation to occur.

But his cultivation value is 1,200%, so there is no problem.

He immediately took a step forward.

Not only did his cultivation value exceed 1,100%, but the man with purple eyes, the man with the sun totem on his forehead, the woman, and Jiang Mingtian all exceeded this value.

"Five people? Not bad."

Yu Hai nodded: "If your cultivation values ​​are real, then you have almost passed the cultivation value test. But words alone are useless. In order to ensure the authenticity, we still have to conduct a round of testing. There is a cultivation cabin over there that can be used for numerical testing."

After saying that, he pointed to the side.

"By the way, let me tell you one more thing. The testing method of Golden Academy is slightly different from your usual testing method, but you will soon understand it. Let's start the test, starting with the people at the back."

Then, he immediately started calling out names, not even bothering to ask the names of those who came for the test.

Soon, a man walked into the training cabin with some trepidation and uneasiness and began the numerical test.

I thought the test would take a long time, but after a moment, the training cabin was opened.

"What? Is this the end?" The man who took the test was a little confused.

Shen Chong said: "It's over. You failed. Your cultivation value is only 850%, which does not meet the standard of 1,000."

"How could that be? I took the test several times before I came here, and each time I tested it I had already reached the 1,000% standard." The man immediately showed a look of disbelief when he heard this.

Shen Chong glanced at them and said to everyone at the same time: "The test standards of the Golden Academy are a little different. We will release more than a thousand cosmic energies in one breath when you enter meditation, and you must absorb all of them within the specified time. If there is too much cosmic energy left when the time is up and it is detected by the training cabin, you will be judged as unqualified. In fact, if your training values ​​tested by normal methods barely reach 1000%, there is no need for you to take the test. You will almost certainly be eliminated in the first round."

"Only those whose cultivation value has reached more than 1,100% can pass. Don't even think about getting into the Golden Academy."

“So that’s how it is”

The man's expression froze and his face instantly turned ugly.

He was indeed barely meeting the standard, but he didn't expect that after a test, the actual practice value was only 850%, which was far from 1,000.

Thinking of this, he left without looking back, feeling extremely lost and frustrated.

"The second one continues." Yu Hai pointed at another person.

really.

Just like what Shen Chong said, almost all those who came to take the test just barely failed. When the second evolver's cultivation value was measured, it was over 900%, which was not up to standard.

The same goes for the third and fourth.

Their cultivation levels would be considered geniuses outside, but here they are not even qualified to enter the Golden Academy, unless they find another way out, join the Investigation Bureau, make great contributions, and strive for a special quota reward to enter the Golden Academy.

Even though the difference in numbers is not that big, the fact that they can come here must mean that all their potential has been unleashed, and it has reached the limit, so it is almost impossible to improve further.

"It's too cruel. There were more than a dozen people taking the test, and nearly half of them were eliminated just by the numerical test."

Lin Yue was watching not far away. Seeing the so-called geniuses being eliminated one after another, she couldn't help but murmur in her heart. At the same time, she was also worried about Li Yi. She didn't know whether Li Yi's 1,200 cultivation value could withstand such a test.

If you can't bear it, it will be bad.

However, Li Yi was not very worried at the moment, because even if he failed the test this time, he could just try again next time, because he still had potential to tap. As long as he broke through to the level of Lian Gang in martial arts, his cultivation value could be improved.
