Chapter 294.1
The First Batch Of Students (1)
Of course, it is impossible for the Cultivation Academy to accept all students who want to enroll.
As early as half a year ago, Wuling City distributed simple Qi Refining manuals to all the residents of the city and the residents of surrounding villages.
This Qi Refining manual is quite similar to the Qi Refining manual distributed by Feng Shao when he was still in the Taiwei Sect, but Feng Shao modified it after confirming it with many classics he has mastered to make it more universal.
Simply put, this Qi Refining manual is suitable for most physiques, and most people can practice it. People with good qualifications can cultivate faster, and those with poor qualifications can also cultivate to a level far beyond ordinary people through their own efforts.
Of course, it is impossible to cultivate and reach a high realm through this Qi Refining manual.
The first batch of students selected by the Cultivation Academy are children between the ages of seven and twelve who have practiced the Qi Refining manual to a certain level.
For this reason, the Cultivation Academy has specially set up a whole set of testing procedures, trying to test the qualifications of every student participating in the test.
The entrance test for the Cultivation Academy can be said to be the first of its kind. At least the people in the cultivation world have never heard that this kind of test is required to recruit disciples. Generally, sects accept students with a bit of luck in it.
Some people see that the other party has good qualifications, some think that the other party has perseverance, some people think that the other party has a good heart, and some people simply think that they have a predestined relationship with the other party, and then they accept the other party as their disciples.Of course, high-level sects are more perceptive than low-level ones, but they are limited. On the contrary, it was the purely objective test of the Cultivation Academy that caught the eyes of many cultivators who came to join in the fun.
Many cultivators from other sects couldn’t help but think that perhaps, their own sect can also refer to this set of student testing procedures.
The Cultivation Academy was making a big fuss about recruiting students, and there were many students who came to participate in the test. But if one observes carefully, one will find that the vast majority of these students are children from poor families who can’t even cover themselves completely with their clothes.
These children were sallow and thin, and many of them even wobbled a little when they walked.
They opened a pair of ignorant eyes, watching the testers doing various tests for them in fear and ignorance, feeling uneasy in their hearts.
Many children even thought it was a sign that the family was going to sell themselves, and were so anxious that they almost cried.
Seeing these students who were very different from what he expected, Lin Xiaoran couldn’t help but frown.
Can these children really support the Cultivation Academy?
On the contrary, Dai Zhixin was very optimistic.
She comforted Lin Xiaoran: “Little sister Xiaoran, don’t worry, these children will become the mainstay of our Wuling City in the future, and sooner or later they will be able to support the sky. Don’t look at them looking like this now. What they can achieve in the future depends entirely on how well our Cultivation Academy can teach them.”
Dai Zhixin, who is well aware of the original plot, is very clear that the rise of the Cultivation Academy actually depends on these humble children.
Most of them were born into poor families, and cultivation is more like a distant legend to them.
The reason why they appear here is that their family members or they themselves want to try their luck.
Anyway, even if they are not recruited into the academy, they have nothing to lose.
As for why there weren’t many children from wealthy families who came to participate in the test, it was mainly due to their distrust of the Cultivation Academy.
After all, the legend of cultivation is very popular.
Everyone has heard of cultivation sects, but no one has ever heard of such a thing as a cultivation academy.
Feng Shao also agrees with Dai Zhixin.
Although he doesn’t know what will happen in the future, most of the inner disciples in the Taiwei Sect are recruited by him himself.
Many of them were even inferior to these children at the beginning of their apprenticeship! With the previous experience in recruiting people, Feng Shao naturally has a little more confidence in his heart.
After glancing at the terrified children in the college square, Feng Shao calmly turned his gaze to the people who were surrounding the door and looking around.
Some of these people came from other sects to inquire about the situation, some came out from the big families to watch the fun, and there were even quite a few malicious people waiting to see the Cultivation Academy make a joke of itself.
Although they didn’t say anything, Feng Shao knew from their mocking eyes that they didn’t think highly of these children, let alone the Cultivation Academy.
But the Cultivation Academy will eventually teach them a lesson.
The entire testing work lasted from morning to evening.
More than two thousand children participated in the test, but in the end, only two hundred of them passed the test and obtained the qualification to study in the Cultivation Academy.
We are currently recruiting. CN/KR/JP Translators/MTLers are welcome!
