Volume 2: Jade Promise Chapter 24: The flying dragon in the sky, the latent dragon in the abyss (V)
Tang was the first one to be called in the 33rd group, so all the deacons and instructors were about to light up their pearlescent stones for him.
As the beautiful woman on the stage said, "Please give us some advice, seniors," the pearlescent stone in front of Leng Buchen lit up first.
Next came Ouyang Luoluo and the old deacon.
Not only Tang Zheng on the stage, but also Xiao Tang and the others in the audience were watching nervously as the pearlescent stones lit up one by one.
Soon, eight of the ten people in the deacon's seat had already revealed their pearlescent stones.
And the ten people in the instructors' seats also had seven pearlescent stones lit up.
Just as the beauty was about to announce Tang Zheng's score for the first test, a pearl on the deacon's seat lit up again, and two more on the instructor's seat...
"It's already... two minutes and eight o'clock!" There was a commotion in the audience. Although they knew that Tang was a star-favored person and that he had two stars in his first palace, this score was still too high.
Jiang Wuyan, the first group to go on stage, is the son of the Star Picking Sect. He has a clan-level astrology and is born with one life palace lit up, which is only two points and nine points...
However, just when the audience was already in an uproar, the last deacon at the deacon's seat hesitated for a moment, and still showed his pearl stone.
Two points nine!
Many people in the audience already looked unhappy.
At this point, the deacons gave Tang Zheng all the lights on, and they agreed with Tang Zheng to give him a full point.
Everyone else's eyes subconsciously turned to the instructor's seat.
Among the ten instructors, nine have already turned on the lights for Tang Zheng, and the last one left is Li Xiaoren.
Tang Zheng didn't expect that Li Xiaoren, who had attacked him before, would turn on the light for him again.
However, even without Li Xiaoren's point, he and Jiang Wuyan, the leader of the Zhaixing Sect, ranked first in the first assessment!
However, just when he was about to think that the score was confirmed, Li Xiaoren spoke up in violation of the rules: "I have another question."
Tang Zheng looked at Leng Buchen and said nothing.
Leng Buchen frowned, but still nodded: "Instructor Li, please speak."
"Are you also from Tangjiabao?" Li Xiaoren asked.
"Yes." Tang Zheng didn't expect that Li Xiaoren still remembered Tangjiabao.
"The head deacon of our academy just asked Tang Zixie about the teacher of Tangjiabao. If you have the ability to invite that teacher to Yisu Academy, then this pearl stone in front of me can light up for you. Do you... dare to accept this?"
Li Xiaoren's intention is really to kill two birds with one stone.
First of all, he clearly remembered that several hours ago, Leng Buchen had taken a fancy to the teacher of Tangjiabao. He was recruiting the talents that Leng Buchen wanted for the academy, and he was wholeheartedly working for the benefit of the academy.
No matter what, Li Xiaoren is a member of Yisu Academy. No matter how much he dislikes Tang Zheng, the basis for his actions must be the academy!
However, on the other hand, asking Tang Zheng to poach people from Tangjiabao actually created a rift in the relationship between him and Tangjiabao.
If Tang Zheng chooses to agree, it would be a betrayal to Tang Family Castle. He would be worse off than Tang Zixie and the others if he poached people from Tang Family Castle just to get into Yisu Academy. Leng Buchen's opinion of Tang Zheng would also be lowered.
If Tang Zheng chooses not to agree, then of course he can just not light up the pearlescent stone. Moreover, Tang Zheng's choice will also make Leng Buchen and other deacons and instructors unsure how long it will take for him to identify with Yisuli Academy.
Li Xiaoren has deep intentions.
However, when he glanced at the audience, he saw Tang Zixie's face was stunned, and then he laughed.
The few warriors who came with Tang Zixie were all laughing.
Li Xiaoren looked at Tang Zheng again, and found that Tang Zheng was also smiling: "It seems that Instructor Li is going to give this little score to me."
"You agree?" Li Xiaoren didn't expect that Tang Zheng agreed to his proposal without even hesitating.
Even Leng Buchen frowned again because Tang Zheng "sold" Tangjiabao without hesitation.
However, Tang Zheng immediately took a few steps forward until he was in front of them, and then he asked with a smile in a voice that they could hear: "Instructor Li, what do you think the name of the teacher that Tang Zixie mentioned will be?"
Li Xiaoren was stunned. He saw Tang Zheng's smiling face and suddenly understood something...
But it was Leng Buchen who spoke first: "Are you the master of Tangjiabao?"
"It's me." Tang Zheng narrowed his eyes and nodded heavily.
"Studying for the rise of Tangjiabao?"
"Uh... yeah."
"Family, country, and the world complement each other? Only when the country is peaceful can the people be at peace..." Leng Buchen laughed with interest, "It seems that Instructor Li, this stubborn stone, has to be brightened!"
Ouyang Luoluo's face blossomed with a smile of victory: "Head Deacon, the foundry master I invited... is actually him, the same person!"
Leng Buchen said "Oh?" and glanced at Tang Zheng again.
Li Xiaoren looked at Ouyang Luoluo with a hint of reluctance on his face, but he still injected his star power into the pearlescent stone, lighting it up, and uttered three words from between his teeth: "He... is not bad."
As Li Xiaoren lit up the pearlescent stone in front of him, a big "three points" was written behind Tang Zheng's name!
Three points, that’s full marks!
Tang Zheng was actually quite surprised to see that he had scored all three points. It wasn't that he had no confidence in himself, but in terms of potential, as an outsider, he really couldn't say what his qualifications were.
However, a chief deacon, ten deacons and ten instructors of Yisu Academy gave his clear answer!
Tang Zheng smiled, bent down and bowed deeply to them.
Then he turned around and walked off the stage.
Seeing Tang Zheng ranking first with three points on the podium, the audience was stunned for a while, and then suddenly a voice of questioning broke out.
"Him? Full marks? How is that possible?"
"How is it possible that he is taller than Jiang Wuyan? Does he have three heads and six arms?"
"No matter what , Jiang Wuyan is still a clan-level star sign, and he has a plan for attracting stars in the first and second life palaces. In terms of potential, he should be the one with full marks."
"Yes, even if Tang Zheng has a Sun Star, his own astrological signs are of unknown origin, and his guidance of the stars is unclear..."
If Jiang Wuyan had gotten full marks, the audience would probably be calm and think it was natural.
However, it does make people feel that there is some behind-the-scenes manipulation when a kid who came to Jade City and suddenly didn't know where to get the Sun Star, couldn't understand the stars themselves, and had a rather messy way of attracting the stars got full marks.
In addition, before the assessment, there had been rumors in Jade City that someone had already been selected.
In addition to Jiang Wuyan being selected, the other one happened to be named Tang...
"It must be him, it must be him!" Many martial artists waiting for the exam in the audience thought more and more that it was the case and became excited.
Hundreds of people are competing for such a scarce four spots. Who would want an internal decision to happen?
Only the people in Tangjiabao knew that the person who was chosen was not Tang Zheng.
Tang Zheng had not decided to take the test at the beginning. He only took the test after he knew about the Su Shi Wen Xing Tower.
The one who is most likely to be selected is Tang Xiaotang.
When she was in Wulong Town, she got along very well with Ouyang Luoluo. Moreover, considering her age, she had reached the two-star level, so her potential was indeed very good.
Even some warriors standing on the stage with Tang Zheng could not stand anymore.
They whispered what they had just heard: "I just heard that when an instructor asked him, he said that he didn't have any life palaces lit up before he was twenty years old."
"It's true that he cultivated faster after lighting up the first life palace... But the older he gets, the faster he cultivates to a lower star level. If I were sixty years old, I would still be able to cultivate to a one-star level very quickly..."
"That's right. If he didn't light up any of his life palaces before he turned 20, how could he be considered a potential warrior?"
"That Mr. Xiang, could he have some kind of relationship with him and is deliberately trying to be mysterious?"
Old Xiang came out and marveled at what was so special about Tang Zheng's purple gold constellation, but he didn't explain it clearly at all.
Tang Zheng also made up nonsense about the origin of his astrological heritage.
Even if he obtained the power of the stars, it would only be 2.8 points at most, or even 2.9 points...
Although it is just a very subtle difference, the word "full marks" is a bit unacceptable.
Leng Buchen listened to the various discussions in the audience for a long time before standing up from his seat.
Seeing him stand up, all the deacons and instructors stood up.
The talking in the audience suddenly stopped.
"I know that the first assessment of our Yisu Academy saw a perfect score, which has not been seen in decades. This makes everyone very excited." As soon as Leng Buchen opened his mouth, he defined all the noise in the audience as "excitement."
He said he was excited, could it be that the martial artists waiting to be tested in the audience would refute him?
Leng Buchen looked at them with satisfaction and said, "As everyone knows, Yisu Academy is the only academy in the entire Xingyao Continent that allows unlimited repeated examinations... As long as you are under the age limit, you can take the exam as many times as you want. Why?"
There was silence in the audience.
"Fei Shi City is a city born out of miracles, and Yi Su Academy is an academy that believes in miracles! Even if you are not selected this year, what about next year, or the year after? Maybe all kinds of miracles will happen to you, and we can't just reject such miracles..."
Every word Leng Buchen said made many warriors in the audience bow their heads.
Some of them have indeed taken the exam for Yisuli Academy many times. If they were in other academies, they might have passed the exam two or three times and then would be restricted from registering.
"Because we believe in miracles, the graduation rate of our Yisu Academy is not high. However, also because of our belief in miracles, Yisu Academy has produced many talents that other academies cannot imagine! Every deacon and every instructor on the stage did not discuss with each other, but they all lit up the pearl stone for Tang Zheng... Why is that?"
Tang Zheng's horoscope is very strange.
He didn't even have a single fate palace lit up before he was twenty years old, so how could Leng Buchen and the others not be able to find it out?
But there are also more and more complicated things about Tang Zheng that are worthy of their attention.
Astrology is not the only determining factor!
"His constellation may only be at the latent dragon level..." Leng Buchen lowered his voice a lot, "But you should not have forgotten how the Purple Gold Emperor evaluated the latent dragon level constellations when he classified the constellations, right?"
There was a groan of stagnation in the audience.
Leng Buchen's words were not only directed at Tang Zheng, but also at many of them who also possessed the latent dragon-level constellation.
There has never been any such thing as useless astronomy in the Xingyao Continent. They think that Tang Zheng's astronomy is not as good as Jiang Wuyan's, but isn't that looking down on themselves?
Emperor Yun: The dragon lies in the abyss, ready to strike!
