Chapter 258 Selection Method
High spirits, but that's all there is to it.
Looking at Jiang Yuan at this moment.
Everyone present was stunned and swayed.
Before my eyes, scenes seemed to appear of the Heavenly Calamity King Feng Xuan ascending to the pinnacle.
In a short time.
Many professors had the same thought flash through their minds—
"Perhaps our Great Xia will produce another invincible king who can suppress the era."
Elder Ming, dressed in a grey robe, stroked his beard and said with a sigh:
"A true prodigy should possess such an invincible belief. I understand now why Feng Xuan values you so highly."
Calling a demigod by their name is absolutely offensive, and even the demigod himself might sense it.
But for the three old men who were contemporaries of Feng Xuan and had been friends and partners for life, there was no such formality; they could scold him as they pleased.
"On the road to the top, there will be countless rumors and gossip. You already have the reputation of a hero, so you should be aware of this. Not to mention Great Xia, even in the capital, there are many people who can't stand you, thinking that you are too dazzling and make them look dirty and despicable. Don't pay attention to them."
The old woman looked at Jiang Yuan with admiration for the younger man in her eyes and said, "Bei Zhenyuan is far inferior to you at your age."
"As long as you stay within the Divine Martial Academy, you'll be perfectly safe before reaching the King Realm," Elder Yue said decisively. "Otherwise, Feng Xuan would be dead."
Old Feng, who was sunbathing and dozing in the library, chuckled and cursed.
This is damaged goods.
Jiang Yuan smiled.
"I appreciate your kind intentions, seniors. I am aware of all these matters."
His gaze swept over everyone, finally settling on Nan Yue.
"President Nan, it seems the professors from the Institute of Life Sciences aren't here?"
Nan Yue nodded.
"The three professors, two full professors and one associate professor, all said that the research was at a critical stage and they were too busy to come."
Li Zhen crossed his arms and said, "We're used to it. They never show their faces usually, we don't know what they're researching."
Another professor added, "Besides them, Professor Tang and two other professors from the research institute also didn't come."
A senior mentor nodded: "I heard that Professor Tang was injured and is still at the Spirit Nurturing Institute."
"Oh? Who was responsible for sending Old Tang to the Spirit Nursing Home?" someone asked curiously.
Nan Yue gave Jiang Yuan a strange look.
Jiang Yuan remained calm.
Elder Ming asked Jiang Yuan, "What brings you to the Institute of Life Sciences?"
Old Yue: "Is it a hidden problem with your physical functions or...? I still have a few high-grade spiritual herbs here that nourish your roots and bones."
"No, that's not it." Jiang Yuan shook his head. His body, from the inside out, was perfectly refined.
"I just wanted to talk to them about something. Since they didn't come, that's fine. I'll pay them a visit later."
"There's one more thing."
As Jiang Yuan spoke, he looked at Nan Yue and said, "The higher-ups of the Great Xia have made a decision that I will select the three most outstanding students from the Divine Martial Academy to participate in the global war in a month and a half."
These words were spoken.
Like a boulder thrown into the lake of everyone's hearts, it splashed up countless water droplets.
Nan Yue was also taken aback for a moment.
Old Master Ming stroked his beard and said, "This is no small matter. Behind this choice lies a heavy responsibility. If the choice is not made well, and the country loses the war, we may be met with countless curses."
The old woman nodded: "To truly convince someone is not such a simple matter."
"I see."
Jiang Yuan said calmly, "I will bear all the consequences."
"And I hope the college can do me a favor. Gather the entire faculty and student body and announce something."
Nan Yue asked, "Are you going to arrange a selection competition?"
Many professors nodded slightly.
The optimal solution is to select the three strongest fighters through a series of selection rounds.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Yuan shook his head.
"Selection competitions can only determine the present moment, ignoring the factor of growth rate. A month and a half, with resources poured in and careful guidance, is enough for a person to break through their limits and achieve further evolution."
"Therefore, growth rate must also be taken into account in the assessment criteria."
Old Yue asked doubtfully, "But who can predict the growth rate of each of them?"
"I can," Jiang Yuan said with a smile.
Everyone was taken aback.
Nan Yue asked, puzzled, "What are you planning to do?"
The boy stroked the hilt of the demon sword at his waist and smiled, "Let each of them fight me."
"Through this confrontation, we'll make them understand two things."
"Understanding your own limits, and how to grow faster and become stronger."
"Don't worry, I will make them all admit defeat."
Looking at the slight smile on the young man's handsome face.
Many professors felt a chill run down their spines and began to feel sorry for the academic prodigies.
Li Zhen thought it was a good idea, as the academy's prodigies hadn't encountered any significant setbacks or blows in a long time.
Experiencing a major failure might actually unleash their full potential.
"Are there any suitable venues?" Jiang Yuan asked.
Nan Yue thought for a moment and said, "The Sword Techniques Department has a small secret realm called the [Ethereal Sword Domain]. It has been vacant since the last professor of the Sword Techniques Department passed away. Now it is the training ground for the Sword Club. You are the new professor of the Sword Techniques Department, so it is the most suitable place for you."
"it is good."
………………
Lin Qingyan waited for Jiang Yuan to come out outside the martial arts building.
I waited for ages but it never came.
Her expression gradually darkened, becoming even colder and more icy, as if a chilling frost had enveloped the area, signaling the approach of a stranger.
But some people just happened to approach them.
"Lin University's campus belle, this is only the second time we've met since the day we enrolled," Luo Xi said with a smile, her voice clear and captivating, her purple eyes mesmerizing.
A male mage who was about to leave was nudged by his companion. He turned around and was about to start cursing when he suddenly saw two girls standing together and couldn't take his eyes off them.
Two stunningly beautiful women with contrasting styles bloomed side by side, their beauty breathtaking, causing those who wanted to leave to stop in their tracks.
Lin Qingyan glanced at her, her gaze lingering on a certain spot. She muttered "tiny waist" under her breath, then looked away, pretending not to notice.
As always, she was cold and aloof, unapproachable.
Although no one knew what method she used to upgrade her S-level talent to SS-level, it was still not enough in her eyes.
Ignored, Luo Xi didn't seem to mind. "Don't be so cold. We were once comrades-in-arms. Are you waiting for someone?"
Lin Qingyan glanced at her sideways and said, "Are we that familiar?"
"Not familiar? I thought we were friends a long time ago."
"I have no friends, nor do I need any."
"And what about him?"
Hearing what Luo Xi meant.
Lin Qingyan's expression grew colder. "What exactly are you trying to say?"
Faced with the coldness and ruthlessness she unleashed.
Luo Xi, however, remained unyielding, smiling as she faced him, "It's nothing, I just want to know... what exactly is your relationship with him?"
Pei Congyun, with silver hair and a gray robe, stood to the side, at a loss, wanting to dissuade him but not knowing how.
As Long Ci fed the little dragon on his shoulder with crystals, he watched with great interest and remarked:
"Is this the legendary love triangle? I can smell the stench of romance."
Jiang Yan, Shi Zhentian, Gao Tian, and the others stood not far away, each with their own thoughts.
"You're being a bit annoying."
Lin Qingyan spoke impatiently, uttering divine words:
"Shut up!"
As soon as she spoke, a golden circle formed from layers of incantations instantly entered Luo Xi's lips, rendering her speechless.
Xiao Zhiyu: "Junior Sister Luo!"
To win the beauty's favor, he immediately took action.
His eyes instantly turned completely black.
In Lin Qingyan's eyes, countless swarms of insects flew out from Xiao Zhiyu's sleeves, densely packed and overwhelming her.
"Insect-Slaying Hell".
Taking advantage of the brief moment Lin Qingyan was affected by the mental skill, Xiao Zhiyu asked Luo Xi with concern, "Junior Sister Luo, are you alright?"
Unable to speak, Luo Xi shook her head.
Looking at the stunningly beautiful woman in purple before him, with her exquisite figure and captivating charm.
A hint of covetousness flashed in Xiao Zhiyu's eyes.
Luo Xi, his junior, is already his. If he could use his talent for subtly influencing others' feelings to also win over Lin, he would be enjoying the bliss of having two women at once...
"Junior Sister Luo, let me help you break the spell."
Just as he took a step forward, intending to take advantage of the situation...
A figure walked out of the martial arts hall.
