Chapter 436: One Year Later, Selection of In-House Quota for the Soul Master Competition
Because they knew very well that their contribution was the lowest, and if it weren't for Ai Xuanyu they wouldn't even get the Qi Yan Dan.

It's just to get the rewards.

Although they were very eager, they were self-aware and understood that even people like Ai Xuanyu were from big families and had already been strengthened with whale glue.

Even if they don't want to be assigned, it won't be their turn.

As expected, Ai Xuanyu, Zhu Qingxuan, and Ye Zhenzhen, all three of them had taken higher-grade whale glue, and it would have no effect if they took it again.

Huo Yuhao accidentally missed a ten-thousand-year whale glue that was auctioned off as a thousand-year whale glue at an auction, so for people who have already taken the ten-thousand-year whale glue, five thousand years is of no use to them. (This is the original storyline.)
So this five thousand year old whale glue finally fell into Xiaoxiao's hands.

"Xiao Xiao, this five thousand year old whale glue is yours."

"Thank you very much, everyone." Xiao Xiao said, very moved.

"Haha, it's okay."

After this battle, Zhu Qingxuan and Ye Zhenzhen instantly became familiar with Huo Yuhao and Xiao Xiao.

"Okay, from now on you are all official inner courtyard students. You should all work hard to practice well in the future."

"Also, let me talk about one more thing today." Lin Tian paused for a few seconds and continued, "There are still two years until the next Soul Master Competition begins. It's almost time for our academy to prepare for the Soul Master Competition in advance."

"So, one year from now our academy will begin the first round of selection. Currently, we have a total of 243 students in the inner academy, but only fifty students can pass the first round of selection."

"The fifty trainees who passed the first round of selection will enter special training to prepare for battle and will receive high-intensity training every day!"

"Do you understand everything?" Lin Tian said.

"Understood!"

"It's finally time to select the Soul Master Competition spots!!"

“I must work hard!”

"I want to be a main player, even if I'm just a substitute!"

At this moment, all the inner courtyard students were excited, full of energy and drive, and had a strong desire to practice, become stronger, and work hard.

Because the students who can come to the inner courtyard can be said to be geniuses on the continent, they all want to represent the academy to participate in the Soul Master Competition.

Huo Yuhao could feel a strong competitive atmosphere here, and it seemed that no one was not working hard.

"Yuhao, Xiaoxiao, we only have two years to grow. We must make a strong push. It's not easy to stand out among the talented people in this inner courtyard and win a place in the competition."

“Yeah yeah!” Huo Yuhao and Xiao Xiao also instantly felt endless motivation.

The three of them finally officially entered the inner courtyard's training career and moved towards a place in the competition.

A few days later.

Huo Yuhao roughly understood the current situation of the inner courtyard. There were actually a few students at the Soul Emperor level among the inner courtyard students. However, they were all in their early 20s and were about to graduate.

Most of them are students at the fourth-ring Soul Sect level, and there are many Soul Kings, no longer a minority!
One year later, fifty people will be selected for promotion. Basically, Huo Yuhao and his friends will compete with the group of students at the Soul King level.

After only a few days of training in the inner courtyard, Huo Yuhao and Xiao Xiao felt enormous pressure. They found that the inner courtyard students were much more hardworking than most of the outer courtyard students. They were both very talented and hardworking, which was terrifying.

Moreover, they are very strong in both martial spirit strength and combat capabilities in all aspects, not weak!
This would make it more difficult to challenge and defeat these inner court students at a higher level.

With such intensity, if the Royal Academy of the Ivan Empire could participate in the competition at the same time, two, three, or four teams could be divided into team one, team two, team three, or team four.

Then the weakest four teams may directly advance to the finals of the competition.

This is the strength of the geniuses gathered in the Ivan Royal Academy. In other words, students who can join the inner school can directly become the main players and represent the academy in the battles as long as they go to other schools that are not top schools, medium schools, or upper-middle schools.

Practicing in this environment, Huo Yuhao, Ai Xuanyu, Xiao Xiao, Zhu Qingxuan, and Ye Zhenzhen are all working hard to become stronger day by day.

Time began to pass day by day.

Sunrise, sunset.

They practiced in the inner courtyard, had a big training session once a month, went out for training from time to time, accepted tasks assigned by the academy, experienced life-and-death combat, fought and killed evil soul masters.

Before I knew it, a year had passed.

Everyone has transformed, not just in terms of strength and soul power, but also in psychological growth.

Because during this year, they all experienced real life-and-death battles and killed people.

And the first round of selection has finally arrived.

All the students who were away have returned and are now gathered in the training ground in the inner courtyard.

Lin Tian said to all the students, "A year has passed, so today is the time for the first round of selection. Everyone, listen carefully to the selection rules."

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

"Because the Soul Master Competition is a seven-on-seven team competition, it requires great attention to coordination, lineup, and the combination of different soul masters. Therefore, in the first round of selection, each type of soul master will have a place to advance."

"And the first round of selection will be a competition between soul masters of the same type."

"Strong attack, agile attack, control, defense, and auxiliary, roughly these five major categories will be divided into batches for assessment."

"Now the strong attack type is standing with the strong attack type, and the agile attack type is standing with the agile attack type. Let's separate them."

"Yes!"

Soon, more than 240 students were divided into five groups.

The most common of them is the strong attack type.

Next are the agility attack and control soul masters.

The auxiliary system has a wide range of categories, including food, treatment, etc., and there are quite a few people in it, second only to agility attack and control, so the competition in the auxiliary system is also quite fierce.

The least is the defense system.

Each department has its own selection rules. Among them, the defense department and auxiliary department do not mainly focus on combat effectiveness.

For the three systems of strong attack, agile attack, and control, the winner will be decided by personal strength in a 1V1 duel.

The winner advances.

The losers will not be eliminated immediately, but will enter the resurrection group. The strongest ones can be resurrected to continue the competition. After all, it is possible that two powerful students will fight against each other from the beginning.

In this way, talented students can avoid missing out on the opportunity to be selected as the first choice and advance due to bad luck.

In other words, there is basically no luck involved, it still depends mainly on strength.

"So Yuhao, do you choose to compete in the control department or the strong attack department?" Lin Tian asked.

At this moment, Huo Yuhao had no choice, because he had already determined that he would become a dual-element soul master majoring in control and strong attack.

Ai Xuanyu said: "Yuhao, Xuan Control, with your strength, you will definitely be promoted among the control-type soul masters."
