Previously, he only knew that if he wanted to enter the Azure Continent Academy, he would have to go through three rounds of preliminaries, but he didn't know that there were still so many things he needed to pay attention to.

Now that he knew all of this, he had a deeper understanding of the Azure Province.

But after knowing all this, Lin Tian was also a bit curious. If he rushed up to the fourteenth floor then he would be ranked as a seed. Then he would completely clear, but he didn't know what level he would be evaluated at.

Just as Lin Tian was planning in his mind, the large man opposite him suddenly asked: "Are the two gongzis going to the Azure Province to participate in the selection?"

The young nobleman nodded slightly and said, "Yes."

Finished speaking, that Young Master's gaze turned towards Lin Tian, as if he had just asked Lin Tian.

Only now did Lin Tian recover his wits and answer: "It's actually like that."

"How about this, we'll go and take a look at the Golden Ranking together in a while. It should be about time to calculate the time." The large man said to the two with a smile.

Lin Tian looked at that Young Master and smiled: "If that's the case, then it can't be any better."

On the way, Lin Tian and the others introduced themselves to each other. They knew who the young master was, that he was actually a rich young master, and was not from the Azure Province. His name was Fang Xing.

As for the other big men, they were all people from a mercenary group in the Azure Province, and they were all small leaders.

Lin Tian also introduced himself, but it was only half true and half false. After all, Jiang Liu'er was still by Lin Tian's side. However, Lin Tian truthfully said his name.

The day that the Qingzhou School releases the rankings could be considered as a grand occasion in the eastern city of Qingzhou. Within a short period of time, it had already attracted the attention of countless people.

When they arrived at the entrance of the Azure Province, there were already countless people gathered there. They were all anxiously waiting for the final announcement of the Azure Province Academy's announcement.

After an unknown amount of time, a teacher finally walked out from within the Azure Province Academy. The crowd immediately became excited.

Lin Tian looked around and discovered that there were a few young students. It seemed like all of them were geniuses that had participated in the second round. Some of these students were happy, some were worried, and all of their expressions were clear at a glance.

"Everyone, I've waited for a long time!" That instructor's voice was thick as he smiled and said to the crowd, "I know everyone's purpose. Therefore, I shall not waste my time and directly release the Golden Ranking."

After he finished speaking, the students of Clear Cloud Academy directly opened the rankings list.

The leaderboard was created by the Golden Thread Tower, and it appeared to be glittering with golden light. Therefore, the name of this leaderboard was also called the Golden Ranking, and the students that could enter the third round were all ranked by the Golden Thread Tower.

As the golden ranking opened, the dragon aura on it began to swirl. Soon, names began to appear one by one.

"Open Golden Ranking!" "Ring the bell!" The teacher in charge of the list suddenly shouted.

At this moment, a series of deep and serene sounds of bells rang out within the Greencloud Institute, resounding throughout the entire Qingzhou City.

"Golden Ranking, rank 1 disciple. Accepted 123rd place. Enter the third round of the Green Cloud preliminaries!" The instructor shouted loudly.

On the Golden Ranking, the dragon aura immediately twined around and formed many names.

At the top of the Golden Ranking, a large "1" had suddenly appeared. This meant that he had passed the Exquisite Pagoda trial and had been awarded a rank 1 disciple.

A disciple of the first rank was a threshold, which meant that he had passed the seventh floor.

Following the appearance of the name, the audience burst into cheers, "I did it, I did it, I am a level one disciple! I am a disciple of the first rank! "

"I've also passed, I can also participate in the third round of the Clear Sky Academy's survival training …"

Lin Tian glanced over. The high school students were elated, and their heads were hung low in disappointment …

"Golden Ranking, rank 2 disciple. Accepts 77 students and enters the third round of the Clear Sky Trials!" The instructor shouted again.

As the instructor yelled out, the dragon Qi on the Golden Ranking disappeared once more, and the word "one" changed to "two". As the instructor shouted, the dragon Qi disappeared once again, and the word "one" changed to "two" on the Golden Ranking.

The first nine floors of the Exquisite Pagoda simulated the challengers. The ninth floor was an existence that was a bit stronger than the challenger in every aspect. The goal was to test the heart of the challenger, and that was the heart of martial arts.

For a practitioner with a firm heart of martial arts, passing the first nine levels wasn't too difficult. But for those with a weak heart of martial arts, passing the first nine levels was impossible.

So, a rank 2 disciple was quite difficult. An existence that could reach rank 2 was the genius student of every city in the Azure Province.

"Golden Ranking, rank 3 disciple. Fifty-four students will be accepted into the competition. As a key student, you can enter the third round of the Qingyun Trials!" The instructor shouted again.

"A level three disciple." After that, his gaze swept over the crowd. The surrounding people did not make any noise, but from their expressions, it was already possible to guess that those people had entered the range of a level three disciple.

"As expected, now I know the difference." Lin Tian sighed. A level one disciple was still too young. Being evaluated as a level one already made him feel happy as if he had entered the academy, but a level three disciple had already achieved a level that could not hide his joy and anger …

"Golden Ranking, rank 4 disciple. Accept students at rank 31. You are a seeded student." The instructor shouted once more.

At this moment, the Dragon Qi was surging on the Golden Ranking, revealing the names of the thirty-one contestants.

At this moment, the instructor was also smiling as he looked at the crowd, and then he said, "Everyone, these thirty-one people are the top talents after my Azure Province, and are also the disciples that my Clear Cloud Academy will focus on nurturing next."

When these words were said, everyone looked at the thirty-one names enviously.

Lin Tian also glanced over it, but he didn't discover his name.

Honestly speaking, Lin Tian did not know whether his name would be on the leaderboard or not. According to common sense, it should have his name, and the so called seeded contestant was a student that had made it to the 14th floor and above.

This kind of student had limitless potential, and the Clear Cloud Academy would also focus on nurturing him. He had reached the 18th step. Although he had done it alone, it still met the criteria of being a seeded student.

But strangely, there was no such thing. Among the thirty-one names of these students, there was no Lin Tian.

But Lin Tian did not think too much about it. He had rushed to the 18th floor, which could be said to be unprecedented, so he was not worried about anything. To him, entering the third round of the Clear Sky Academy selection was a guaranteed matter.

But now that the list of seed students had been released, there was no sign of him. Normally speaking, after releasing the seed students, the matter of releasing the Golden Ranking would be considered over, and as the seed students continued to want to leave, Lin Tian also prepared to pull Jiang Liu'er away from this place. After all, there was no longer a need to stay here.

However, the teacher had no intention of leaving. Instead, he opened his mouth once again and said, "Everyone, please wait a moment. The Golden Ranking is not finished yet. There is still a list of names on this seeded participant's name …"

"How is this possible?" Everyone shouted out in disbelief. They had always placed after the seed students, in other words, the seed students were the most outstanding disciples in the Exquisite Pagoda.

But now, there was actually someone stronger than the seed students!

Lin Tian's gaze slightly froze and he immediately stopped walking. He also didn't expect that this year there would be some changes to the rules.

"Continue to publish it." The instructor spoke again, "The Golden Ranking, level 5 student. Accepting seven students as students of the Hidden Dragon Institute, you will enter the third round of the Clear Sky Trials!"

"Level 5 student?" Some people revealed an expression of disbelief.

"To think that such a terrifying student would appear this year!" someone exclaimed in shock.

"Clear Cloud Academy is really flourishing." Some people said excitedly.

Level 5. This was a new level.

In the past, rank 4 was already considered the strongest rank. However, they didn't expect that this year would be even more terrifying when it came to rank 5 students …

"A student of the Hidden Dragon Institute!" Lin Tian was also somewhat shocked. He already knew what the Hidden Dragon Ranking was, so he naturally knew that this Hidden Dragon student should be referring to the existence that would have the chance to become a student of the Hidden Dragon Ranking in the future …

Those were the top students of the Five Great Academies …

The number "four" on the Golden Ranking had once again changed. The number "four" had already changed to "five"!

Not long after, the dragon aura on the Golden Ranking started to revolve unceasingly. Not long after, faint names started to appear one by one.

Not long later, the seven names were carved on the Golden Ranking.

Lin Tian looked over. At this moment, he actually discovered that on the gold ranking board, there was a very familiar name, Gu Yan'er!

Upon seeing this name, Lin Tian was initially surprised, but soon recovered. Back in the Heavenly Thunder City, it was this Gu Yan'er who had given him the egg. Furthermore, Lin Tian had even used his own blood to turn it into a pill to suppress the poison that Gu Yan'er originally had no control over.

But Lin Tian was surprised for a bit and then recovered his calm. After all, Gu Yan'er had a natural poison body. Being able to enter the Golden Ranking wasn't anything strange.

It had to be known that Lin Tian had heard those few big men say before that if it was some sort of heavenly creature, they could also directly enter the Clear Sky Academy.

A natural poison body was naturally one of the innate spirit bodies.

Back then, Ling Tianlie had even specially given Gu Yan'er a token, saying that he wanted her to look for Ling Tianlie. There was a powerful poison master within the Greencloud Institute.

But unfortunately, Lin Tian still did not see his name.

"Even a rank 5 student, a Hidden Dragon student, doesn't have me. It seems that I am indeed a unique existence …"

However, at this moment, the instructor spoke once again, "Everyone, this year, another level 6 student has appeared!"

"Level 6 student?" Everyone's face was filled with incredulity as they stared at the instructor.

The appearance of a level 5 student was already unimaginable, but now, another level 6 student had appeared?

How was this possible?
