C230 Test

Time passed by very quickly and in the blink of an eye, five days had passed. It was also the time for the Ice Blue Imperial Family's martial arts exam, a grand event on the continent. The young geniuses from all over the continent had rushed to Ice Blue City from all directions.

Waiting for the academy's test, the current Ice Blue City was much more lively than usual. Many inns within the city had long since been filled to the brim. Even the emperor's fourth floor was filled with people who came to participate in the test.

Many of them were noble descendants from small kingdoms or empires across the continent, but they could only be considered ordinary people here. It had to be said that Ice Blue Imperial Family's martial arts academy didn't care about their identities.

Even if you are a commoner, you can still enter the academy. On the other hand, if you are only a trash, even if you are a prince or a princess, you should forget about entering the academy.

These few days, Long Tianhao stayed in his room the whole time. He did not go out, he comprehended the profound meanings of magic, and trained in the use of Spatial Magic and Fire magic. For this reason, Long Tianhao also sought Chi Yan's help.

After looking for a few books on fire magic to help himself with his studies, the Spatial Magic had a book gifted by the mysterious old man. There was nothing else that Long Tianhao needed to know, as in these past few days, he had gained a deeper understanding of these two types of magic.

At the same time, Long Tianhao also learned all of the other fire magic, and all of them were used in basic ways. On the other hand, Long Tianhao's study of the Spatial Magic also increased by a lot.

What he cared about the most was the fact that the Spatial Jump Magic was becoming more and more nimble. Its speed was faster and its distance was more and more mysterious. It was already able to use the Spatial Jump to travel a hundred meters, which was already pretty good.

"Huu huu, not only is there not the slightest tiredness from training, it even feels refreshed. Today is the examination time, I should head over earlier as well. I am really looking forward to the scene during the test."

Long Tianhao smiled and muttered a few words, then got off the bed to wash up. After leaving the room, he went to look for Feng Baiyu to participate in the examination.

When he walked out of the room, he discovered that Feng Baiyu was already drinking tea in the hall, and had woken up earlier than him. When Long Tianhao left the room, he looked at Long Tianhao, and a warm smile still hung on his face.

"Bai Yu, I didn't think you'd arrive so early. I thought you'd forgotten. I was just about to go get you."

Tch, who do you think I am? My memory is very good, isn't it? Then let's set off. There's still quite a long way to go to the academy, even if we have to ride on horses. I don't want to queue up if we're late. "

"En, that's fine too. Let's go. I don't have much to prepare."

Long Tianhao also nodded his head, and agreed with Feng Baiyu, he knew that it would be very crowded today, and it would be better to go earlier, thus, the two of them headed downstairs, planning to rush to the Academy's location earlier.

Just as the two of them went downstairs, they met Chi Yan, and upon seeing Long Tianhao and Feng Baiyu coming down, Chi Yan went forward to welcome them.

"Brother Long, Brother Feng, where are you guys going?"

"Brother ChiYan, we were just about to leave to participate in the Ice Blue Empire's Magic Martial School's student recruitment test. If we go too late, we won't have the chance."

"Oh, I just happen to be going as well. Let's go together."

"Oh ~ Brother ChiYan, don't tell me that you also plan to go to the academy to be a student?"

"Hahaha, I'm already this old, so what's the point of being a student? I want to see what kind of geniuses appear this year, and also to see your performances. Let's go, I'll go there every year, and I'm familiar with the roads."

"Hur hur, alright then. Let's go."

With Chi Yan leading the way, the three of them rode on top of their dragon horses. After two hours of travelling, they arrived outside of a forest.

"Brother ChiYan, why did we leave the city?"

"Hahaha, looks like you don't know yet. Even though this Ice Blue Imperial Family's Magic Martial Academy is located in the Capital, it isn't located in the city, but outside the city.

It is located in the forest in front of us, and is very well-laid out. Normally, it is very difficult to enter this place, and only in the past few days will you be able to relax your restrictions, otherwise not many people would be able to enter. "

"I say, how come the map only indicates that the academy is located in the southwest and not the exact location? "So it's in the forest outside the city. This forest is a natural defense, and the academy is indeed a good choice here."

"What's so good about it? This place is in the wilderness, we won't have any chance to have fun in the future. I really regret accompanying you to participate in this test."

Feng Baiyu looked at the forest in front of him. There was not a single trace of happiness on his face, instead, it was filled with regret.

"Alright, there are a lot of beauties in the academy. You might be reluctant to leave when the time comes, so let's go in. Brother ChiYan, I'll leave the guide to you."

"Mm, come with me."

After stopping outside the forest for a while, the three of them rode their horses into it. This forest was quite vast, and the Ice Blue Imperial Family's Magic Martial School was located at the heart of the forest. This forest wasn't completely safe.

There were quite a few Devil Beast in the forest, from low to high. However, because of the existence of the academy, these Devil Beast would usually not take the initiative to attack humans. As long as one was careful and did not anger the powerful Devil Beast, there would be no danger involved.

After travelling through the forest for half an hour, the three of them stopped. This was because an open area had appeared in front of them.

Many buildings had appeared on the empty ground. At this time, it was already bustling with noise and excitement. Quite a few people had already arrived, waiting for the start of the test.

The Ice Blue Imperial Family's Magic Martial School covered an extremely wide area. Around the academy, there were enchantments protecting it, preventing Devil Beast s outside from entering. In front of the academy was a huge plaza, where all the people who came to take the test stood.

Some were alone, some were in groups of three or five. From the way these people dressed and the way the crowd divided up, one could tell their identity. There were many people surrounded by servants.

They should be commoners, but no matter what, everyone's purpose in coming here was to enter the Ice Blue Imperial Family's Magic Martial School. Because once they entered, their life would change.

Long Tianhao and the other two all dismounted and placed their dragon horses to the side, while they walked towards the plaza.

"I didn't expect so many people to come already. How many people are recruited here every year?"

Hehe, this is only a part of it. Many people haven't come yet, and it's always like this. Every time, the academy would recruit a student, and every year, there will only be a few dozens of them.

"Eh, it's so exaggerated. The recruitment conditions in this place are really harsh. Those who wear uniform should be students from the academy."

"Un, they are all students of the academy and are responsible for the order of recruitment. Everyone who wishes to participate in the test must first register."

Then, I will accept the test in order. The two of you will also have to take part in the test, hurry up and register. I still have some matters to attend to, so I'll leave first.

"Yes. Brother ChiYan, you should go back to your work first. We will take care of this matter here."

"Alright."

Because Chi Yan had something to do, he left first, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared from the two people's sight. He did not know where he went, while Long Tianhao and Feng Baiyu headed towards a relatively small registration office.

"We want to register."

The two of them quickly rushed to the registration table, and seeing that the person who had registered there had his head lowered, Long Tianhao could not help but say this.

"Name, age, and background."

"My name is Long Tianhao, and as for my age, I should be twenty years old. I'm from the Ice Blue Empire."

The registrant could not help but raise his head and look at Long Tianhao with a strange expression. What did he mean by should be twenty years old, how could he not be clear about his own age, but after seeing Long Tianhao's face, he was sure that Long Tianhao was not lying.

"Take this crystal card. You're number 172. When I call out to you later, you'll come up and take the test. What about you?"

The person passed a silver crystal card to Long Tianhao, and after giving him a few instructions, he turned to ask Feng Baiyu.

"Feng Baiyu, this year's eighteen, from the Ice Blue Empire."

"En, this is your crystal card, number 173. Don't make a mistake."

"Alright, thank you."

After the two of them finished registering, they retreated to the side. At this time, Long Tianhao looked at him strangely, causing him to tremble.

"Why are you looking at me like that? "What's the problem?"

"I can't believe it, Bai Yu, you're only 18 years old."

"What's so special about that? I'm still young."

Feng Baiyu's face was filled with narcissism, but in his heart, he said, "Eighteen, hehe, I'll flip another twenty times."

Long Tianhao naturally didn't know what Feng Baiyu was thinking, but he didn't want to ask any more questions. The two of them quickly arrived at a place with fewer people, and waited for the start of the exam.

"Bai Yu, what do you think about this test?"

"I don't know, but don't you see there are ten platforms up ahead? That should be where the test will be. It's almost noon now, and it should be about time to start. The people that should be here are almost here."

"Hmm, it's about time to start. Look, there's a group of people walking out from the academy. They should be the ones in charge of the assessment."

Long Tianhao nodded, as his gaze looked towards the high platform in the distance. At this time, a dozen or so people walked out from the academy, all of them wearing uniform robes, and looked to be around forty years old.

"First of all, on behalf of our Ice Blue Imperial Family's martial arts academy, we welcome all of you to participate in the entrance examination. The former Headmaster is going to speak."

An old man walked up to the stage and spoke to the crowd below. As his voice fell, an old man with a head full of white hair and wearing a huge magic robe walked up to the stage.

However, no one dared to think this way. After all, a person who could become the principal of one of the three big academies on the continent was definitely not an ordinary person. He must be a true expert.

"I am the dean of the Ice Blue Empire's Magic Martial School, Primus. I welcome you all here. You are all young and talented people of the continent. You have traveled thousands of miles to come here and participate in the academy's tests.

Alright, I know that everyone is anxious for the test, so I won't say anymore. When you all officially become students of the academy, I'll personally congratulate you all. The test will now officially begin. "

With the order from Dean Primus, several magic presents flew up into the sky. A teacher of the academy was standing on top of one of the ten high platforms. At the same time, everyone in the square fell silent.

The square was currently filled with no less than two to three thousand people. It was hard to imagine that there were only a few dozen people left. How intense was the competition among them?

While they were preparing for the test, a large group of people also appeared within the academy. These people were all sitting not far away, and could clearly watch the test on the platform.

Some of them were noble missions that were invited by the academy. Long Tianhao could see from afar, Chi Yan was actually also inside.

From this, it could be seen that ChiYan's position among these people was not low. As for Director Primus, he sat next to ChiYan and chatted with him from time to time, seeming very familiar with him.

"Brother Tianhao."

"Boss."

Just as Long Tianhao and Feng Baiyu were watching the stage from afar, a few voices sounded from behind him. Long Tianhao could not help but turn his head and realize that Qi Ya and a few others were already there.

"Why are you guys here?"

Hehe, we came here a long time ago, but we haven't been able to find you guys.

"Why is it only for Tianhao, I don't need to work anymore?"

I hope you can pass the test too. When that time comes, I'll introduce you to a few beauties, how about it? "Su Yun said with a smile.

"Really? That's great. Don't worry, I'll definitely pass. "

Feng Baiyu said with a smile all over his face. From the looks of it, he was here for the beauties.

"Boss, we'll cheer you on from below. We can't stay here any longer, so we'll be leaving first. We'll be waiting to see your spectacular performance."

After Jia Si said this, he pulled Qi Ya and the rest of the students of the Academy, who were official students, to rush back as well. Most of them were currently gathered at the surroundings of the plaza.

They also wanted to see what kind of geniuses would appear this year. One had to know that the competition within the academy was extremely fierce, so they were very concerned about these geniuses.

"Brother Tianhao, I'll wait for you."

Qi Ya said to Long Tianhao before leaving with Jia Si and the others.

"Mm, don't worry, I will definitely pass."

Long Tianhao's face revealed a confident smile, towards this so called test, it was simply a test of a person's talent, Long Tianhao did not believe that his own talent was insufficient to pass this test.
