Chapter 26: Shrek Assessment
🕑 Added 2025-02-28 04:05:36 +0000 UTCXu Yuan left, but he did not forget Mu Ye and told him that he had applied for Shrek.
After knowing this, Mu Ye did not stop him. Being a disciple of the Body Sect and studying at Shrek Academy at the same time was something that the Body Sect could accept. There had been similar cases in the Body Sect in the past, but not many.
After Xu Yuan left Tianhai City, Mu Ye also left.
“It’s time to go see my eldest disciple.”
Riding on Xu Shengqun’s mecha, the two soon saw the outline of Shrek City.
Shrek City.
Been away from here for two years.
“It’s been two years, and I’m back.” Xu Yuan sat in the mecha, looking at the vaguely visible Shrek City in front of him through the screen, with a sense of anticipation in his heart.
“You should adjust your condition in the next few days. I am not in a position to disclose the content of Shrek’s assessment. This is also a test for you.” Xu Shengqun stopped at his villa and asked Xu Yuan to start adjusting his condition.
“The Shrek entrance exam is still difficult. You should gather your strength these days and adapt to the state after your soul evolves.”
Xu Yuan nodded without objection.
He was familiar with the Shrek entrance examination process. Although it was a little vague, he still remembered the more important steps, so he was not too nervous.
Many of Shrek’s assessments test one’s true heart and require soul masters to make the most heartfelt choices. Therefore, many assessments are inclusive of illusions. Even if some assessment information is known in advance, it will be temporarily blocked by illusions, and many miscellaneous thoughts will be guided and ignored by illusions, so that the assessee can only give answers that come from the heart to the assessment content.
Even if you know some of the exam content in advance, it is actually difficult to make more effective preparations in advance.
All you can do is adjust your state and prepare for the battle, that’s all.
The day of Shrek enrollment soon arrived.
Xu Shengqun simply sent Xu Yuan to the entrance of Shrek Academy.
Shrek Academy can also be said to be the inner city of Shrek. The entire academy is a city, no smaller than a medium-sized city in the outside world, and the facilities inside are even more complete than those of large cities.
Strictly speaking, the scope of this inner city belongs to the real Shrek Academy, but the academy is still an academy, and the actual teaching area only occupies a small part of the inner city.
But this is already amazing.
Xu Yuan set out from the inner city on his own and found Lingbing Square according to what his uncle had said.
At this moment, a large number of young boys and girls have gathered outside Lingbing Square.
Every three years, Shrek Academy will have an enrollment round. Although the number of places is limited, there are still a large number of outstanding soul masters. It can be said that each academy has several recommended places, and they can come to Shrek to participate in the so-called examination.
Among those who actually pass the entrance exam to Shrek, there are always great soul masters whose lowest soul power is only level twenty-three or twenty-four every three years. This is not uncommon.
In this era, there is no shortage of soul masters who can cultivate to level twenty-three or twenty-four before the age of thirteen. It can even be said that every intermediate soul master academy has the ability to cultivate students of this level.
But the level gap is also extremely obvious.
What is really scarce are the places for the inner courtyard entrance examination, that is, if you apply directly for the inner courtyard, after passing, you can enter the Shrek inner courtyard to practice as a specially recruited disciple, and after meeting the inner courtyard requirements in the future, you can directly become an inner courtyard disciple.
Of course, this ratio is extremely low. There are only about one hundred vacancies for the inner courtyard every year, and no more than a handful of people can be specially recruited into the inner courtyard.
Most of the special recruitment places in the inner courtyard are used as a backup. Even if you fail to pass the special recruitment, you can still enter the outer courtyard for training with a lower probability.
The exam is held in a circular building behind Lingbing Square. The building has about six floors. The whole building is very grand and gives people a sense of simplicity and elegance.
Xu Yuan passed by Lingbing Square and saw many statues standing in the square.
The Golden Iron Triangle, the original Shrek Seven Devils and the Shrek Seven Devils of the era of Spirit Ice Douluo Huo Yuhao, this is the most conspicuous statue.
Xu Yuan could feel that the statues of the most legendary characters such as Tang San also revealed a special artistic conception. He didn’t know whether it was due to the technique used during the carving, or whether a soul master bestowed the artistic conception on them, or whether it was the result of the gathering of faith.
Beyond the statues, the boys and girls applying for the exam began to crowd in around them.
Xu Yuan grew very fast due to his practice, but he was only seven years old after all. He stood out among this group of teenagers and attracted a lot of attention.
Arriving in front of the circular building, Xu Yuan waved.
“Teacher, I am taking the special recruitment exam.”
The person in charge of guiding them was a young man. He glanced at Xu Yuan and said, “Follow me.”
There are so many applicants that they are divided into batches to enter the building for the assessment, but the special recruitment examination can start directly with the examinees in the same batch.
The young man led Xu Yuan into the building and introduced him, “You are very young, not only seven or eight years old, right? Although you have an age advantage and will get extra points in some assessments, the difficulty of the inner courtyard special recruitment assessment is higher than the ordinary assessment. You also need to perform at the same level as the ordinary assessment to pass.”
Xu Yuan nodded silently without saying anything big.
The young man looked at Xu Yuan in surprise. He didn’t expect that such a young child had such good concentration.
He led Xu Yuan around two corridors and arrived at a circular hall with murals on the dome.
There were no less than fifty young men in the hall, and at this moment they all looked up with fear in their eyes.
Xu Yuan also followed their gaze and looked at the mural on the wall.
It was a huge black dragon with a pair of golden eyes, huge wings spread out, and a dark purple halo all over its body.
Although it is just a mural, it is vivid and lifelike. The most important thing is that there is a real sense of oppression revealed by the mural. Anyone who looks at it will suffer from both physical and mental oppression.
Dragon power!
This was the first time Xu Yuan felt the dragon’s might directly.
Any description in the material is pale and powerless. Only when you truly feel it, you will know how terrible the oppression is.
The reason why dragon-type martial spirits are so powerful, and why the true dragon martial spirit’s oppression of lower-level dragon-type martial spirits is so unsolvable, and even has a deterrent effect on non-dragon-type martial spirits, is because of the dragon’s might!
“This is oppression of will!”
It is derived from the spirit, but it is not purely mental oppression.
Facing Long Wei head-on, Xu Yuan’s heart was as high as the sky, and he was shocked the most. His face turned slightly pale, and his body barely stabilized after shaking slightly.
Although he was greatly affected, and even Xu Yuan felt that his resistance was extremely low in his current state, he was not discouraged, but relieved instead.
There is no so-called sense of oppression from a superior position, just pure pressure of power.
