Chapter 8: Martial Arts System, Top of the Ten Institutes
At this moment, the vast crowd congested outside the courtyard all reacted.
Tens of thousands of people were astonished, and after a brief silence, they erupted into a chorus of astonishment and disbelief
The place was already bustling with a sea of people, and within hundreds of meters at the entrance, there was hardly a single spot to set foot on, as everyone was waiting for the results of the martial arts examination of the Ten Academies Joint Entrance Test
Top of the Martial Arts Department in the Ten Academy Joint Examination
His ordinary world no longer contains this person
Ye Fan had just exited the courtyard and was momentarily taken aback, not expecting to find so many people gathered outside
The crowd outside the martial arts academy quickly displayed a sense of reverence in their gazes, along with immense curiosity
One by one, their eyes sparkled with unparalleled fervor, admiration, and respect, as they gazed to bid farewell to the remarkably handsome young man.
The crowd gathered at the entrance of the government office began to stir as they gazed out
The crowd outside the martial arts academy eagerly looked up at the latest rankings with curiosity
In his future magnificent and grand world, there will be no such person. In the future, they will merely be two specks of dust, hardly worth mentioning
Not far away, there were more than ten luxurious carriages, all belonging to the prominent families of Luyang Prefecture. Inside were the distinguished figures from various clans of Luyang Prefecture, either clan elders or chief stewards, all awaiting the outcome
Luyang Prefecture Courtyard, Main Entrance
What is the matter? Is there any problem
Who knows! It is very likely to be the Zhao family
How can this assessment list change so suddenly
Ranking of the Top Ten in the Martial Arts Department of the Joint Assessment of the Ten Junior Martial Arts Academies of Luyang Prefecture
Indeed, her choice was not wrong
Therefore, this list of the top ten has been prepared in advance and is a settled matter
Five hundred points? Damn... How could it be such a high score!
His gaze swept over the crowd, and suddenly it became fixed.
It is evident that the ranking of the members of their family is not particularly favorable
Under the leadership of Chief Steward Zhao of the Zhao residence, more than ten members of the Zhao family, along with relatives and old friends, were in a state of agitation, loudly protesting at the entrance of the courtyard.
Upon seeing the red list, the crowd was immediately in an uproar
She murmured this name, which was incredibly familiar, one that had always seemed utterly ordinary in her eyes.
Sitting inside the luxurious Zhao family carriage, the chief steward of the Zhao family, who was just about to depart, quickly glanced at the newly announced red list, and his expression suddenly changed in shock.
Wherever Ye Fan passed, the crowded throngs of people immediately parted like waves of the sea, automatically creating a wide and straight path
How did unexpected changes arise all of a sudden
They forcibly pushed Zhao Feiyang, the direct descendant of the Zhao family, off the top position, which is clearly an attempt to undermine the prestige of the Zhao clan in Luyang City and provoke the Zhao family
Cao Shanshan also felt a bit worried, revealing a trace of anxiety as she looked towards Zhao Feiyang
In recent centuries, the martial arts system of our Luyang Prefecture has been dominated either by the three prominent families of Mu, Jiang, and Gu, or by the five major clans of Zhao, Feng, Lin, Qin, and Wang, who have almost taken turns holding the top position, apart from the martial rankings. Last year, it was the Lin family's offspring who claimed the top spot; I wonder which family's offspring will seize the top position this year
Haha, it turns out that the Zhao family has indeed taken first place, I guessed it right! Zhao Feiyang has secured the top position in the martial arts department of Luyang Prefecture this year
How can this be reasonable
Without uttering a single word, he descended the steps at the entrance of the imperial court.
This completely unfamiliar name
Suddenly, loud shouts and hurried footsteps echoed within the courtyard of Luyang Prefecture.
The second place in the martial arts category, Wang Lie... a total score of 440 points
The stars in the night sky were momentarily overshadowed by his blazing sunlight, losing their brilliance. Although Zhao Feiyang and Cao Shanshan were both at the third level of martial arts, Ye Fan was merely at the second level.
Ye Fan? It can't be him, can it? Perhaps it is another person with the same name? ... But who else could it be?
What happened
And wait!
I said it, the top position in the martial arts department of the joint examination of the Ten Institutes is undoubtedly mine! Among the top ten junior martial arts academies, with thousands of martial students, who can compete with me for the first place in the martial arts department
Zhao Feiyang and Cao Shanshan had already completed their examinations early and left the crowded schoolyard, arriving early at the entrance of the mansion to await the announcement of the results
Zhao Feiyang saw the announcement of the list and immediately smiled proudly, looking at Cao Shanshan with a sense of pride that conveyed a "who else but me" attitude
The rankings of the top ten red list have unexpectedly been incorrect, which means that the rankings of "certain individuals" need to be adjusted! It is either that someone has risen or that someone has fallen.
Martial Arts Department Second Place: Zhao Feiyang, cultivation level 300 points, martial skills 149 points. Total score 449 points
Not only he, but all the members of the Zhao clan present, along with relatives and friends of the Zhao family, became extremely agitated and began to shout and yell.
This is a monumental change that shakes the very foundations.
Several prominent figures inside the carriages glanced around, looked at the rankings, some shook their heads and sighed, while others remained silent. There were even some families who, out of jealousy, cast a glance at the Zhao family's carriage
They covered the newly written red list over the old red list
However, behind the youth, within the courtyard, there were thousands of young martial artists and examiners parting like a tide to see him off
Several examiners hurriedly rushed out of the martial arts academy, holding another freshly released list in their hands, quickly replacing the previous erroneous list
This name suddenly feels like a lofty presence, far away in the clouds, a height that she cannot reach
I do not know which corner this little brat emerged from, but how could he directly take the top spot in the Martial Arts Department? There must be a problem here; there is significant bribery involved. This is a major case of fraud!
The several examiners who were previously posting the large red list also wore expressions of confusion, clearly puzzled.
Zhao Feiyang stared intently at the newly released red list, his expression changing dramatically, completely in disbelief, his face turning an ashen shade.
Ye Fan
Unfortunately, at this moment, Ye Fan's brilliance was even more dazzling than the midday sun
Indeed, I have also heard that the Zhao family has produced a young martial arts genius this year, named Zhao Feiyang! He is currently the top martial artist at the Nancheng Martial Arts Academy and is very likely to secure the first place in this year's Ten Academy Rankings
After the results of these more than ten top genius young martial artists were released, the list was almost finalized. Once their scores were filled in, the top ten were posted.
Soon, several examiners excitedly held a large red paper, preparing to post it on the notice board at the entrance of the martial arts academy
This kind of infatuation is something she has never experienced with Ye Fan before
Who is this sudden intruder
Our Zhao family is the foremost clan in Luyang Prefecture, and we will not tolerate such behavior
However, now she suddenly finds that this name has become very unfamiliar and distant, rendering it completely incomprehensible to her
The top of the martial arts ranking is Zhao Feiyang. His cultivation level is 300 points, martial skills are 149 points. The total score is 449 points
Cao Shanshan excitedly waved her small fists, her eyes shining with admiration as she looked at Zhao Feiyang
Inside the luxurious carriage of the Zhao family, the chief steward of the Zhao clan wore an expression of excitement. "Young Master Feiyang has secured the top position in the Martial Arts Department; this is excellent news! Our Zhao family has finally made a name for itself this year! I must hurry back to report to the master and inform him of this good news"
Zhao Feiyang's lips curled into a confident smile, and he chuckled, displaying a sense of indifference.
The joint examination of the Ten Courtyards of Luyang Prefecture is exceptionally competitive, with thousands of martial arts students participating in the assessment, making it generally difficult to achieve a significant score difference. However, Ye Fan's score surpasses his by more than fifty points, which is simply overwhelming
Wait a moment! There has been an error in the rankings of the top ten candidates in the martial arts examination, and adjustments need to be made
It is the first time she has been so infatuated with a man
After Ye Fan left, a long time passed before the crowd began to murmur in scattered, sporadic voices
Some even rubbed their eyes in disbelief
Countless people gasped in shock
Martial Arts System's Third Place in the Examination
The spotlight of this martial arts department's top ranking has been completely taken away by Zhao Feiyang of the Zhao family
What is going on
Top of the list, Ye Fan
He is Ye Fan, who scored 500 points, dominating the martial arts examination hall!
The crowded and noisy throng suddenly fell silent, turning their gaze towards the entrance
Unexpectedly, he instantly replaced the highly renowned Zhao Feiyang of the Zhao family, becoming the top candidate in the martial arts department of the joint examination of the Ten Institutes of Luyang Prefecture
The top position has unexpectedly changed
Faced with her childhood friend Ye Fan, who is utterly ordinary, she is left with nothing but helplessness, a gradually growing disdain, and a complete sense of despair and abandonment
Zhao Feiyang achieved a remarkable score of 449, effortlessly securing the title of "Top of the Martial Arts Department" in the joint examination of the Ten Academies of Luyang Prefecture, a brilliance that is sufficient to shine throughout the entire Luyang Prefecture
Suddenly, at the main gate of the residence
Around the streets, restaurants, and pavilions near the government office, tens of thousands of people are excitedly discussing who among the young men this year will achieve first place and which student from the junior martial arts academy will perform the best
Others may wish to compete, but they cannot
We, the Zhao family, wish to appeal to the old director Mu Fengshan! Please review this person's martial arts examination results!
Counting on ten fingers one by one, everyone is well aware of who is strong and who is weak
With Feiyang Ge's formidable strength, securing the top position is naturally within easy reach
At a glance, one could see a young girl in blue standing on the steps alongside a noble-looking young man of a prominent family, exuding an air of elegance and vitality. The talented young man from the Zhao family and the beautiful young girl, this pair of golden boy and jade girl, shone as brightly as the stars in the night sky
His figure is so ordinary that, apart from the image of a frail young boy, others find it difficult to have a deeper impression.
This list has actually been prepared a long time ago
Many people turned their gaze towards the top-ranked Zhao Feiyang
Quick look! The martial arts department's results are out!
Brother Feiyang
What is even more remarkable is that he not only lacks the vices typical of a wealthy young master, but instead is intelligent and capable, diligently practicing and honing his skills, far surpassing his peers in martial arts cultivation and techniques
What is going on? How did Young Master Feiyang's top position suddenly disappear
Ye Fan ... ... it really is him!
Apart from the top of the martial arts rankings, who else could elicit such fervent gazes from the numerous candidates within the martial arts academy, as well as from dozens of examiners, as they send him off?
Martial Arts Ranking First: Ye Fan, cultivation level 200 points, martial skills 300 points. Total score 500 points
He scored four hundred and forty-nine points, the highest among all candidates, surpassing the second place by a full nine points. No matter how adjustments are made, his top position in the martial arts category will remain unshaken
What is there to worry about! Most likely, it is the last few martial artists on the list whose order has been mixed up. Their scores differ by only one or two points, so adjusting them is not surprising
The most unfortunate was the candidate who originally ranked tenth, who was completely pushed out of the top ten list.
The thousands of onlookers outside the martial arts academy were suddenly stirred into a commotion
Zhao Feiyang not only comes from a distinguished family, being a direct descendant of the Zhao family, the foremost clan in Luyang City, but also possesses first-rate appearance and demeanor
This directly caused a collective drop of one rank for the other prominent families' offspring in the entire top ten list, including "Zhao Feiyang, Wang Lie, ..." and other ten individuals.
A slender young martial artist emerged from the courtyard with a calm demeanor, his delicate face bearing a hint of weariness
Ye Fan cast a indifferent glance at them, brushing past Zhao Feiyang and Cao Shanshan.
Zhao Feiyang's handsome face was extremely unpleasant, his mouth twitching slightly, and his gaze turned exceedingly gloomy. He had only just pursued Cao Shanshan yesterday, and today he was ruthlessly humiliated, trampled to the point of being utterly disheveled
In the end, she decisively chose to sever all ties, completely breaking up with Ye Fan the day before graduating from the Southern Chen Martial Arts Academy, and agreed to Zhao Feiyang's pursuit
A few examiners who came out later shook their heads and explained, "Alas, just when the assessment was about to conclude, a martial artist suddenly emerged, scoring astonishingly high, and directly surged into the top ten! No one expected this. We hurriedly revised the top ten rankings."
This is absolutely intolerable
It also makes her feel immensely proud
Cao Shanshan was bewildered
This is absolutely cheating, and we must strongly protest
The elite offspring of prominent families such as Zhao Feiyang from the Zhao clan and Wang Lie from the Wang family are certain to dominate the top ten positions in the martial arts department
After all, the adjustment of rankings is likely to threaten his position at the top
After all, the top ten martial arts academies are home to the most outstanding genius martial students, all of whom come from the eight prominent families of Luyang Prefecture, amounting to only about ten candidates
