Chapter 455 S-level trial evaluation, generous rewards
This day.
At the Royal Academy of Airel at the foot of the Taita Mountains, various luxurious carriages stopped at the entrance of the academy.
Today is the day to register for school. Young nobles from various territories in the southern continent are arriving at the academy one after another.
No sooner or later.
A purple carriage pulled by a Grunt stopped at the gate of the academy.
Mr. Sack got off the carriage.
Behind the motorcade, Ji Xun and a group of reserve knights followed closely behind. They wore brand new armor and robes, and held the purple dragon cross flag of the Langdon family.
Travel patterns like this will definitely cause a sensation in other cities.
But here, the entrance is full of such scenes of guards surrounding young masters and young ladies going to school.
Today is the day for the new students of the Royal Academy to enter, and it is also the first day for those little nobles to start their academic life.
The students are all young, around thirteen or fourteen years old. Their luxurious clothes and family crests show their high status.
The nobles in the Southern Continent are numerous and complex, but the class divisions are also very clear.
Ji Xun also had a detailed understanding of the noble heraldry of the Southern Continent.
The details of the pattern on the coat of arms reveal all the information. The patterns on the coat of arms of direct line, collateral line, and descendants are all marked in detail.
Ji Xun just glanced at them and recognized the identities of many students.
Loy, the seventy-third prince of the Black Dragon Kingdom, Princess Sophia of the Red Dragon Kingdom, Prince Seike of the Silver Dragon Royal Family, the seventeenth princess of the Grand Duke Raphael’s family, and the twentieth-ranked direct descendant of the Grand Duke of Frost Mountain Sun
Top nobles who are rarely seen in ordinary times are everywhere here.
Although the empire is very large, the social circle of the noble class is still small.
Many young nobles have known each other for a long time.
After Sac got off the carriage, he met several acquaintances and started chatting while walking.
"Hey, Sark, I heard that you were assassinated? What happened?"
"A small problem. Just some short-sighted guys."
"[ [Spell God Card] Have you heard about it? A few guys in the academy were lucky enough to get it. I heard that it can be used for unlimited spells. Is it really that magical?"
" Didn’t that guy just test that the purity of the blue dragon blood was very high this year? Why didn’t he come to the academy this year? ”
"Hey, I heard that the unlucky guy broke a leg when he went hunting, and he is recovering at home now."
"Hey, I don't know why, but I heard that there seem to be a lot of rewards on the black market targeting royal students."
“It may be that some careerists are causing trouble again. Recently, the Holy See has promulgated the Development Act, and many down-and-out nobles have shown up, or they may be rebel dragons. I always feel that recently, the major territories seem to be under control. It’s even more confusing.”
“Didn’t it say that the main force of the Dragon Rebel Army fled to the Old Continent?”
“Who knows. Hey, have you heard about it? There are some remote places in the north. There are pagans making trouble somewhere, saying they are 'vampires', and the Holy See has even organized a conquest army."
"."
Ji Xun was following the team.
While walking, I also listened carefully to the chatter of the young masters.
These young masters and ladies have their own family intelligence networks and often know a lot of information that cannot be obtained through other channels.
Every noble has some reserve knights like Ji Xun.
The higher the title, the more you bring.
So the college recruits a lot of people in each session.
The group of people walked all the way into the academy.
The Royal Academy of Airel is built on a mountain, with the towering Titan Mountains at its back.
The foot of the mountain is lined with green trees, and most of the white Gothic-style dome buildings are hidden in the forest.
The style here is similar to that of Djinn City, with various huge buildings everywhere.
There is a broad avenue leading deep into the academy.
On both sides are neatly manicured magic gardens, in which grow a variety of exotic plants that are rare in the outside world.
Some leaves are like wind chimes, swaying gently in the wind, making a pleasant ringing sound; some flowers bloom at specific moments, releasing an invigorating fragrance; and some are like living vines , those are some tree demons.
Ji Xun looked at them and was amazed in his heart.
It's really a magical world.
After walking for a while, you can see the 100-meter-high statues of human knights standing on both sides of the road.
Looking further away, a huge building with windows inlaid with stained glass burst into view.
That is the library of the Royal Academy.
The most spectacular building in the entire college.
There is a square in front of the library the size of several football fields. In the center of the square stands a huge white stone statue of a three-headed evil dragon that is 100 meters high.
Before Ji Xun came, he had heard that there was a magical dragon god statue in the academy.
But when he first saw the three-headed evil dragon sculpture, he was shocked: "The statues actually have such exaggerated dragon power."
The artistic content of the statue is very It's tall and the carving is very exquisite.
The whole statue is so lifelike that it doesn’t feel like a dead thing, but like a living dragon that has been petrified.
There was a look of disdain in the dragon's eyes, as if he could see a most powerful man's contempt for the creatures in the world.
Majesty, cruelty, power, and cunning.
The characteristics of the dragon are vividly depicted in the sculpture.
The first time I saw him, I felt a strong visual impact and inner shock to Ji Xun.
This statue was not carved randomly.
It’s the dragon god who has many titles such as ‘Colossus of Despair and Eternity’, ‘Lord of the Forgotten Kingdom’, ‘Creator of All Dragon Clan’, ‘Shaper of Dragon Civilization’, etc.!
The supreme being of the Airel Empire!
Real dragons have a long lifespan, usually living for thousands of years.
The lifespan of a god-level dragon is beyond the comprehension of ordinary humans.
This dragon god is said to have lived for at least tens of thousands of years.
Just looking at this statue, a heavy sense of history and mystery comes to my face.
Every student who saw the Dragon God statue involuntarily stopped protecting his chest and saluted.
This is the intimidation of the dragon from the bloodline level, which is difficult for non-dragonborn to bear.
This is one of the most important reasons why Ji Xun dare not use his body to come in.
Every corner of the academy hides various magical barriers and traps, which can easily be exposed to outsiders inadvertently.
Not long after, a group of students put on the classic aristocratic red and black uniforms and gathered in the spacious auditorium.
The interior of the academy is also somewhat similar to the school in Ji Xun's previous life. Portraits of outstanding teachers from past generations are hung on the walls.
However, the ones that can be hung on the wall are at least the top level card masters of the eighth and ninth levels.
And most of them are still alive.
This is the foundation of Airel Royal Academy.
Here, students can have access to the best extraordinary resources in the world, and there are also real top experts who can guide their path of practice.
Ji Xun looked at the portraits of those strong men with many thoughts.
My sixth level is already considered top-notch in the Eastern Wasteland.
But here, it’s not worth mentioning.
This place not only continues the inheritance left by the Tarunka Master Civilization, but also the inheritance of the dragon civilization and various ancient civilizations hidden deep in the Warcraft Forest.
In Ji Xun's eyes, this is a super extradimensional space where all kinds of treasures are concentrated.
The risks are huge, but the rewards are also huge!
The procedures for the opening ceremony for new students at Royal College are almost fixed every year.
It means getting to know the senior management of the college, testing their qualifications, dividing them into classes, and assigning tutors.
The dean is a kind-hearted old man, a genuine ninth-level powerhouse.
The old man showed his face and gave a speech about academics without borders and praising the great Dragon God.
Then there were speeches from the top leaders of the five major academies: warrior, mage, priest, assassin, and mysterious academy.
Those who are qualified to sit in front of the rostrum in the auditorium are Sack's formal students with high noble status.
Ji Xun and these reserve knights gathered into a square formation at the rear.
The little nobles were bored, but Ji Xun listened with great interest.
The contents of the speeches given by the senior leaders of these colleges sounded like empty talk to the ears of the young students.
But in Ji Xun's current state, if you take a closer look, you will find all kinds of wise sayings.
Those top experts used the simplest language to express what they saw in the extraordinary and supreme realm.
This was not the first time that Ji Xun felt this sense of enlightenment after being pointed out by others.
But this is the first time I have encountered so many super masters giving instructions at the same time, it feels like feeding food in your mouth.
It feels great.
It was already a few hours after the various procedures of the opening ceremony were completed.
Then there is the final process, which is to allocate class tutors and resources based on the entrance test of the new students.
Because the entrance test is different every year, the rewards are also different.
Before this, no one knew what to expect.
The little nobles didn't take it seriously. After all, the family's training resources were sufficient, and no matter what the academy rewarded, it was dispensable to them.
But for the preparatory knights, this may be the closest opportunity they have to get close to top-level training resources.
On the stage, a bearded instructor was reading the trial assessment report card.
The reserve knights in the audience also listened carefully.
“The seventh reserve knight team of the Black Dragon Royal Family, the trial evaluation is A, and the reward is A-level extraordinary resources.”
"The Thirteenth Preparatory Knight Team of the Red Dragon Royal Family, the trial evaluation is A+, and the reward is A+ grade resources."
"Duke Simon's First Preparatory Knight Team, the trial evaluation is B+"
"West Count Si's Ninth Preparatory Guards, Trial Evaluation C"
"Count Gordo's Guards, Trial Evaluation D, Unsatisfactory, Penalty for One Semester, Research Funding Halved""."
There are thousands of scattered guard teams of all kinds.
But in general, the higher the title, the stronger the guard usually is and the higher the trial evaluation it gets.
It is said to be a trial evaluation, but in reality it is more like a strength ranking of the guard group.
Although the nobles don't care about the rewards, the young masters and ladies will be very happy to hear that their own escorts are rated far better than others, especially the nobles of the same title.
In the square formation, Ji Xun also listened carefully to the names of the teams.
He habitually writes down the intelligence of everyone around him. If there is a future conflict, these can be used as real references for deductions.
However, those on the stage were still thinking about it, and suddenly everyone in the audience seemed to have heard something incredible, and they all fell silent.
"The sixteenth team of the Duke of Langdon Knights, the trial evaluation is S and the reward is a book of basic secrets of the fifty-two magic mysteries!"
As soon as these words came out, the huge auditorium was silent.
Not everyone has heard about Sack's assassination.
And even if they have heard about it, not everyone knows what exactly happened.
The Langdon family and the college are deliberately keeping the entire assassination secret.
So when they heard this "S" comment, everyone's expressions were the same as their thoughts, they were all shocked and speechless.
The entrance test is the ranking of strength, which is recognized by everyone.
But usually, the royal legion guards of the three kingdoms will have the best test results.
Just like this year, the three royal reserve knight teams of Red Dragon, Black Dragon and Silver Dragon received almost all "A+" evaluations.
This has been the case for thousands of years in the past, with very few exceptions.
But just now.
What did you hear?
An inconspicuous team from Duke Langdon's Palace actually received an S-level evaluation in the trial?
There is absolutely nothing fishy about the Royal Academy's assessment. It is a comprehensive evaluation by the academy instructors based on the trial situation.
This also means that the Langdon family’s team performed better than the three royal teams in the trial, and won the only freshman trial in the game, which has not appeared in at least the past ten years. Refining "S-level evaluation"?
Of course, the most excited people after hearing the news were a certain five-person team.
Gang Duoduo, Seri, Gale, Zhuo Sha, and Ji Xun.
David was a slave and was not eligible for rewards. He was neither happy nor sad.
Even Ji Xun was surprised.
He was not surprised that the previous trial had a high evaluation.
To be able to survive in that situation after being pinned down by a second-level assassin requires luck and strength. It is almost impossible for other teams to do it.
Even the three royal families.
What surprised him was, were the awards from the Royal Academy so luxurious?
He actually took out the Fifty-Two Magical Mysterious Techniques as a reward?
Although I know that this is the academy's way of encouraging students to study hard, but the priceless magic mystical method is just a reward?
As far as Ji Xun knows, it is very difficult for even veteran students to obtain the magic and mystical magic. They often have to be at the top of various assessments to have a chance.
Anyone who can receive this kind of reward will become a famous person in the future.
Now they have passed a freshman trial and were rewarded to some low-level knights?
Although it is an introductory tip, it still feels a bit too luxurious.
Ji Xun always feels that this sudden increase in assessment rewards may have a lot to do with the recent strange situation in the southern continent.
However, this thought only passed by for a moment, and I quickly accepted it calmly.
He came to the Royal Academy for those extraordinary resources.
Ji Xun is also curious about what kind of magical and mysterious magic he can get.
The opening ceremony, which was originally as boring as previous years, caused quite a stir due to the sudden S-level trial evaluation.
Not only the young masters and ladies of various duke palaces are jealous, but the princesses and princes of the three royal families feel that they have lost face.
But after the whispers that followed, everyone also figured something out.
The situation of the Langdon family is indeed different this year. The Duke's Palace established a principality in the Old Continent and attracted many talents.
A few freaks suddenly appeared, and they seemed to understand.
Probably in order to further stimulate the competitive psychology of the new students so that the future teaching staff would be more motivated to learn, the hospital announced the reward plan in front of everyone.
It’s all multiple choice.
Let the five people in the team choose.
The reward Gang Duoduo received was the exclusive magical magic of the [Ace of Spades-Black Knight] series, known as the "infinite barrier" that can be invulnerable to all kinds of armor.
The reward Seri received was the exclusive magical and mysterious technique "Super Element Perception" of the Element Controller sequence.
The reward Gale received was the exclusive magical magic "Virtual Flash" of the Assassin sequence.
The reward Zhuosha received was the exclusive magic mystery of the priest sequence "Resurrection Sacrifice".
There is also Ji Xun. His original character design was the Wisdom Path [Plum Blossom 5 - Polymath] sequence, but the magic and mystery of this sequence in the hospital was missing.
He chose another one, the "Gluttony" breathing method!
This is not the secret technique that Ji Xun knew before.
Gong Wu had said before that the secret method of gluttony he knew was only a part of the inheritance, and it was only a basic introduction to the elemental breathing.
The other part about the absorption of laws is in the Southern Continent, which is the part of the Royal Academy collection!
The goal Ji Xun set for himself before was to obtain the gluttony breathing method of his other half.
I didn’t expect to touch it so easily.
This breathing method is also highly consistent with his polymath sequence.
Five magic books were sent out at once, making those who were also reserve knights in the audience extremely jealous.
The Fifty-Two Magic Mysteries can be said to be the ultimate reward that ordinary knight students can get in the Royal Academy.
No one expected that this year’s rewards would be so generous.
Even within the Preparatory Knights of Duke Langdon's Palace, everyone is extremely envious.
Seeing the mediocre Ji Xun and the five others standing on the rostrum to receive their awards, jealous eyes glanced at the faces of the five people like needle pricks.
Even the extremely thick-skinned dwarf Gang Duoduo felt on pins and needles.
Ji Xun looked normal. Since he had received such great benefits, it was understandable that he would be a little jealous.
And he also guessed that this was deliberately arranged by the hospital.
However, at this moment, someone in the audience finally couldn't help it. Many people stood up and said: "We are not convinced! Why can they get an S rating! Our team is not worse than them, if it is the same Trial, we can do it too!"
Ji Xun glanced at the person who spoke, he had deliberately noted it down before, and he happened to know it.
It is none other than the 13th Reserve Knights of the Red Dragon Royal Family who received an "A+" rating this year.
Some people started, and soon one after another stood up to protest.
"Yes! We are not convinced!"
"We are not convinced either! Why can they get the magic mysticism! Although we have an A-level evaluation, our strength is definitely not worse than them!"< br>
“.”
It's not entirely because of jealousy, some of them are enemies of the Langdon family and they are deliberately targeting them.
More importantly, there are indeed some misunderstandings in the assessment.
The assessment content will change every year, and the content of each team's trial will be different. Just like the college entrance examination papers in Ji Xun's previous life, the questions were divided into different areas. They were not the same set of questions, so it was normal to have objections.
The Royal Academy’s assessment evaluation has a high proportion of “subjective points”.
However, based on comprehensive considerations, no one would question the college instructor.
According to the custom of previous years, no one said anything about the normal ranking of noble titles.
But this year, a trainee knight from the Langdon family suddenly overpowered the three kingdoms. This is unacceptable.
A wave of protests broke out in the audience.
The five members of the Langdon family also became the target of public criticism on stage.
Except for Ji Xun, the other four were all panicking.
Seeing that it was about to become impossible to end, another instructor from the college came out to smooth things over: "How about we solve it according to the rules of the college?"
Everyone agreed with this statement.
The Dragonborn's method of dealing with conflicts and disputes is very simple and crude, that is, using force to resolve them.
Dueling is the most common method of resolving conflicts among the nobles in the Southern Continent.
The Royal Academy still has this tradition.
Ji Xun's five people are just a team, and of course they can't compete with these hundreds of teams.
Finally, we decided to have a friendly exchange between the S team of the Langdon family and the A+ team of the Red Dragon royal family.
Ji Xun and the five others were also helpless.
Although I don’t want to agree.
But the academy said that regardless of winning or losing, the original rewards will remain the same.
If they win, the reward will be increased.
If the red dragon wins, it will also get an S rating.
Ji Xun did not expect that a new student would encounter such trouble on the first day of school.
But looking at the rich rewards from the academy, he suddenly felt that it would be good to show his face.
If you lose, you will definitely make money.
If you win, wouldn't the extra reward be more delicious?
Anyway, they are just trainee guards, and they can accept winning or losing;
The one who can withstand the most pressure is Young Master Sack.
