Creating Demonic Cultivation Techniques against Non-human Races-Chapter 85: The House Sorting Exam—A Brawl on the Third Floor, While Lin Ping’an Enjoys the Show on the First
On the first level of the Creation Master Department arena, there were new students aspiring to become Civilization Masters, not too many, around a hundred or so.
For most people, the path of becoming a Civilization Master is the hardest. If you’re brainless or lack the aptitude for learning, even entering won’t lead you to succeed.
All the new students who dared to choose this path naturally carried an aura of academic excellence.
Since the number of choices was comparatively low, there was no need for battles.
Therefore, the choice of new students was the least.
On the second level Manufacturing Department arena, there were slightly more new students choosing this path, about three hundred people!
The Manufacturing Department mostly involves studying medicinal cuisine, elixirs, weapon crafting, and other contents related to Martial Arts’ subsidiary industries.
After graduation, most will enter various support departments, or manufacturing departments, or even companies and enterprises.
They are considered technical talents, with options for stable jobs or high-paying careers, safe and suited for those with a steady personality.
The number of selections didn’t reach five hundred, so there was no conflict either.
As for the third level Combat Department arena, things were getting wild.
The Combat Department teaches many cultivation techniques, combat and related content, and the selectors are those dedicated to stepping on the Martial Arts Peak, seeking to integrate personal great power and enter a higher realm as Seekers.
It had the highest number of choices.
More than sixty percent of the new students wanted to enter the Combat Department, aspiring to become the strongest in Martial Arts.
This selection ratio was consistent every year.
With youthful hearts, who doesn’t have a bit of ambition!
The third level was filled with the new students’ shouting, buzzing with phrases that were either juvenile or brimming with confidence.
"Take this! Jade-Breaking Fist! Down you go!"
"Hmph! Get lost! How dare you stand in my way!"
"Who claims the Martial Arts Peak, Qingcheng Zhao Mountain Zhao Yunhao!"
"With your strength, you still dare to act rashly in front of me? Step back!"
"Thunderbolt Fist! Bang bang bang bang bang! Thunderbolt Quintuple Boom!"
"..."
Amid the shouting, it had already turned into a chaotic mess.
Some new students engaged in paired duels, in a 1V1 battle mode, with the winner staying and the loser knocked out.
Some other new students, after a brief discussion, formed temporary teams and continuously used group methods to quickly eliminate competitors one by one.
During this period, all the losers were knocked out and thrown onto the second level Manufacturing Department arena.
In response, the new students on the second level watched the increasing number of defeated individuals being thrown down and exchanged glances.
They stepped forward and delivered a few more punches to those who had fainted and couldn’t resist, making sure these losers were thoroughly knocked out.
Then, they picked out a portion and threw them onto the first level Creation Master Department territory.
After all, there was also a so-called limit of five hundred new students on the second level.
If they didn’t do this, once the losers woke up, it would be okay if they continued to challenge upwards.
But if they accepted their fate, wouldn’t they occupy slots on the second level, and once the limit was exceeded, some students originally wanting to choose the Manufacturing Department would be knocked to the first level?
If there was a head-on clash, they might not win.
Instead of passive defense, hoping not to be one of the unlucky ones.
It’s better to take initiative and solve the problem in one go while these guys were knocked out.
"Bang bang bang~"
One by one, the knocked-out new students were thrown down, lying in a heap like dead pigs. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
Seeing this, some of the new students choosing the Creation Master Department stepped forward, watching with interest and discussing it with glee.
"Look! These brutes have been thrown down! They’ll probably be dumbfounded by the time the college sorting is over!"
"Hilarious! I can already imagine them scratching their heads when classes start!"
"I don’t even know why the Academy sorted them into the Creation Master Department, it seems a bit of a waste of time."
"It’s said that people who want to get into the Combat Department and are forced to study find it particularly painful, which helps spur them to strive forward."
"I’ve heard that too. Apparently, every semester begins with a three-day departmental challenge match, where students can challenge using the methods of the department they wish to join. If successful, the two students swap departments."
"Entering the Combat Department means arena fights, entering the Manufacturing Department means a crafting contest, and entering the Creation Master Department means a Creation Technique challenge."
"Though the rules exist, it’s basically a solo performance by the Combat Department. Other academies never fill their quotas, but the Combat Department always leads to intense battles."
"..."
Not far away, Lin Ping’an stood quietly, neither participating in discussions with fellow new students nor having the inclination to show off on the third level.
Anyway, his goal from the beginning was to enter the Creation Master Department.
As for stepping onto the Martial Arts Peak and becoming unrivaled, he had long chosen to achieve this through being a Civilization Master.
Unless necessary, Lin Ping’an absolutely wouldn’t do anything extra, moving lightly without having to act.
However, despite his wish to stay out of trouble and avoid the limelight, sometimes trouble finds its way regardless.
Ten minutes later.
Three newly arrived students, tall and similar in appearance, walked down the stairs, shoulder to shoulder, with arrogance on their faces, looking exceptionally cocky.
Seeing this, new students choosing the Creation Master Department were somewhat dumbfounded.
They couldn’t figure out why these three guys had come down.
Several new students from Coastal City recognized these three guys.
These three were named Li Hu, Li Bao, and Li Lang, triplet brothers.
Physically strong but simple-minded, they excelled in joint attacks and were dubbed the Three Idiots of Coastal.
From the nickname alone, it’s clear they’re not the brightest.
Wanting to become Creation Master Department students?
Stop kidding around!
In the next instant, the three scanned the area and quickly locked onto a standout target.
With large strides, it took only mere seconds before they menacingly surrounded someone lost in thought.
Soon after, the eldest, Li Hu, shouted loudly.
"Lin Ping’an! Damn pretty boy! Finally, we’ve found you!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Ping’an paused slightly, returning his thoughts and casting his eyes on the three, casually speaking.
"Which of you are you! Do we know each other? What’s the matter?"
These three questions slightly angered Li Hu, who raised a hand, pointing with one finger, and spoke bluntly without reservation.
"Hmph! Stop pretending! Pretty boy! I’ve disliked you for the past few days! Just right, today we have the chance, and we three brothers plan to teach you a lesson."
"As for who we are, listen carefully! I’m Coastal Li Hu!"
The next second, the slightly thinner new student on the left spoke.
"I’m Coastal Li Bao."
And then, the slightly chubby new student on the left spoke.
"I’m Coastal Li Lang."
As soon as they finished speaking, the three brothers posed in a melodramatic stance, speaking simultaneously with their final declaration.
"We are the famous Three Heroes of Coastal."
Witnessing this scene, it felt as if a squawking crow flew over the new students’ heads, rendering them completely awkward.
Nonetheless, whispers arose on the first level.
"Emmmm... I used to think that the so-called title Three Idiots of Coastal was a joke, but now I believe it! These three are all complete fools."
"Ridiculous! How can Coastal City have such oddballs, can you guys usually stand it!"
"I can’t take it anymore... I really can’t... I’m about to burst out laughing! These three... they’re just too hilarious!"
"Ah this! Do they not feel embarrassed? Just watching makes my scalp tingle!"
"..."
