Chapter 178 Looking for a Grandson
Chen Mo didn't like queuing, so he specially chose a canteen far away from the guest dormitory to fill his stomach. Then he walked to the square with Huang Cui, rubbing his belly.
This square is not the one outside Jianmen. It is a special square that only insiders can enter.
Under normal circumstances, outsiders might be allowed in during the Citizen Visiting Day, but in recent days, a big test has to be conducted, and not only outsiders, but even insiders have to prove their identity before entering.
"What is your current progress?" Chen Mo asked as he walked.
Huang Cui replied: "In the late third realm, a god awakens."
"Not bad, not bad. For you, it shouldn't be a problem to get into a top-notch martial arts academy."
Although Chen Mo's goal is the top martial arts academy, where there are more resources and other more convenient conditions, it may not be the case for others. Most of them should aim for a better first-class martial arts academy.
After all, the top martial arts academies recruit as many as thirty or forty new students each year, or as few as a dozen, or even in the single digits, so it is not that easy to get in.
"I heard that you have seen those three divine bodies?" Chen Mo asked again.
Huang Cui answered every question like a child learning machine: "We saw Bai Lang with the Silver Mirror Body when we went to Guangyang Martial Arts School. He was very powerful, and Xue Qifeng and Lu Ling couldn't beat him even if they joined forces.
I didn’t recognize the two with the God-Slaying Body and the God-Slaying Body, I just saw them from afar. But judging from Bai Lang’s reaction to the God-Slaying Body’s Xu Fan, he should be able to break the silver mirror’s defense.”
Chen Mo nodded slightly.
Huang Cui continued to fill in the gaps: "Lu Ling also said that in addition to the three divine bodies, there are eight other people who are recognized to be very strong. You must be careful. I secretly observed four of them yesterday. I will tell you what they look like. You must remember them."
Chen Mo waved his hand: "Don't worry, don't worry. If you see me later, just point it out. I can't remember it if you just tell me."
In fact, he felt that there was no need for this. If Hu Mingxuan was here, he would have told him to shut up directly. However, Huang Cui had more face, so he was more tactful.
The two of them came to the inner square and could see from afar the podium under the flagpole of the martial arts academy, and there were steps similar to the auditorium at the back.
"Hiss, I suddenly remembered that other martial arts academies will also send people." Chen Mo suddenly asked.
"Of course!"
A crisp voice came from behind. When I turned around, it was Gan Qianqian. I didn't expect to run into her in the crowd.
But this time she was not alone, there were several classmates from Osawa Martial Arts School around her.
She said with a smile: "Our Huanggu Martial Academy will also send our senior brother to watch the battle. After all, we have to choose the disciples to recruit."
Chen Mo said to Huang Cui, "I wonder if Senior Gu will come."
In front of others, he never mentioned his title directly.
Because they had to gather at their respective martial arts schools, Gan Qianqian did not stay long. She said a few words and followed the other classmates.
Faintly, one could hear them asking Chen Mo who the two people were.
Huang Cui followed Chen Mo all the time and showed him the way, and the two soon arrived at the classroom.
Xue Qifeng seemed to be born with some sixth sense. Suddenly, he turned his head and his fighting spirit was aroused.
"Chen Mo! I hope that twenty days of special training will allow you to catch up with me!"
"Your steps?"
Chen Mo said, "I feel like I've never seen it before. I've always been in front of you."
Xue Qifeng snorted and punched him lightly on the shoulder for no apparent reason. This was probably his way of expressing closeness.
"Don't brag. To tell you the truth, I have awakened another White God. Now that three gods have awakened, you may not be my opponent."
Lu Ling quickly stopped him: "Keep your voice down! If others hear you, you'll be exposed."
Xue Qifeng put his hands on his hips and said, "Show me the cards!"
You don't think anyone will pick up on your joke about Landlord!
Lu Ling was speechless for a while.
"double!"
Chen Mo answered.
"." Lu Ling was numb.
However, he didn't expect that there was another expert. Hu Mingxuan jumped out from nowhere: "Super double!" He professionally responded to the joke first, and then ran to Chen Mo like a puppy and grinned: "Cousin! You miss me so much. You have to get in the top 30 at least, right?"
The number thirty has its own significance.
Just as Gu Yan said, the number of core disciples in each class of each martial arts academy is probably less than three people.
There are ten top martial arts academies, with exactly thirty people.
Before Chen Mo could say more, he saw a commotion in the square, and everyone nearby stretched their necks to look forward like ostriches.
He looked along with the others and saw that some people had already passed by the audience behind the podium.
"Those are all masters sent by various martial arts academies."
A familiar voice was heard and everyone turned their heads again.
"Teacher Kang."
Kang Long came over and patted Chen Mo on the shoulder: "You are the only one I didn't keep an eye on, but since Master Hua took over, I guess you must have gained a lot, right?"
He squinted his eyes, probably meaning, don't tell anyone about the chance to harvest elixirs and spiritual medicines.
The low-key Chen Mo naturally wouldn't take the initiative to bring it up. He asked, "Wait until the exam is over, and then choose someone on the spot?"
"According to the established process of the Extraordinary Management Department, after the advanced version of the exam is over, the Jianmen Martial Arts Academy will compile and report the results. After the overall arrangement by the Management Department, the candidates will be directly assigned to various martial arts academies according to their scores. However, the process is predetermined in advance, and the actual situation often deviates from expectations."
Kang Long smiled mischievously, "To put it simply, everyone wants the top students, so don't be fooled by the so-called martial arts masters in the audience who look decent now. After the exam, they will fight for the top students."
Hu Mingxuan: "I want to see a quarrel!"
Lu Ling laughed dryly: "Is it so exaggerated?"
Kang Long said, "In the past, there were often cases of people being robbed. Usually, a rule would be set here first, and then the department would make overall allocations based on opinions from multiple parties. Of course, the wishes of the students themselves would also be considered."
As Kang Long was explaining, more and more people gathered in the audience.
"Long time no see, Senior Luo. I heard that you went to the Abyss a few days ago?"
"I looked around for a while but didn't find anything good. I was chased out by a few Hades. What bad luck."
"President Sun, I came up with a new technique last month. I hope you can give me some advice. I'll have my apprentice send it to me when the time comes."
Although the content of the conversation was somewhat shocking, this group of people were actually no different from the students below. They still looked like they were buying vegetables in the market, and some even came with bamboo hats on their backs.
"President Gu, I didn't expect you to come in person."
As soon as Gu Yan sat down, he heard someone calling him. He had no choice but to stand up and turned his head to see: "Oh, it's you, Xiao Wu."
Standing in front of him was a bearded man with an old face, who looked like he had been wandering the streets for a long time.
The man bowed in a playful manner and said, "Junior Wu Dayong pays his respects to Senior Gu."
Gu Yanli ignored him and looked towards the square, as if looking for someone: "Stop talking nonsense, you guys at Qingfeng Mountain are really generous to send your senior brother here. Normally, don't you just find someone to take a look and call it a day?"
Wu Dayong said, "There's nothing we can do. Junior Brother Lin is carrying out a confidential mission, and Junior Brother Li is very busy in the department."
Gu Yan snorted, "You're just talking nonsense. Almost all martial arts academies have raised the standards for watching the three divine bodies this time. Do you still want to fool me?"
Wu Dayong chuckled and did not argue: "What are you looking for?"
Gu Yan said: "Find one."
He suddenly changed his tone midway through his words, ".Grandson."
He was actually looking for Chen Mo, but then he realized that he shouldn't reveal too much, otherwise others would notice it first.
"A grandson?"
Wu Dayong narrowed his eyes, "Could it be that you know of a potential newcomer and deliberately didn't tell me?"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible." Gu Yan coughed.
Wu Dayong cupped his hands and said, "You are my elder, I trust you."
In fact, he was thinking cunningly in his heart: Hey, I also saw a potential newcomer in the stone mound this morning, but I didn’t tell anyone.
