Chapter 545 – Assessment Concludes

Edited by: NZRose

When Yin Nian saw his master, his master was the image of a great beauty. He treated Yin Nian very well; he took him in as a disciple, gave him the best life, got revenge for him, took him away from the hands of those wicked people, and let his temper get its way and mature. His food and clothing were at the top of the grade, never let him lack anything or and gave him the short end.

This kind of master, he could be said to be flawless.

But Yin Nian always felt that Lin Xuanzhi was not like a real person, it was like in this world he had never wanted anything, and all the beautiful scenery of the world could not enter his two eyes.

So Yin Nian suspected that if one day Lin Xuanzhi was tired of staying in this world, he only needed to wave a sleeve, and would fade away and disappear, becoming light as a feather and ascending.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xuanzhi became this way, and the one who caused that was among this generation.

Yin Nian suddenly resented that person.

“That person, he is unexpectedly willing to leave Master?” Yin Nian felt it was even more unfathomable and said, “How can there be a person willing to hurt a person like Master? That person’s head was probably kicked by a donkey, so it can’t be used anymore.”

Yin Chongyue was the person, more than any other, that understood Lin Xuanzhi’s past the best in the world.

He knew about Lin Xuanzhi’s past life and he also knew his present life.

Being played by Heaven to this point, the fact that Lin Xuanzhi still hadn’t gone insane right now was solely due to his resolute nature.

Yin Chongyue said, “You can’t say that. Many things are not as simple as you think. The road was chosen by your master himself. He can’t blame anyone else. It was precisely because he could not blame anyone else that he had nowhere to vent his anger and grievances. He blames heaven, but what can blaming it do? Heaven can’t be seen and can’t be touched, it’s just something that exists in the unseen world of spirits, and it won’t pay attention to him.”

Therefore, Lin Xuanzhi became increasingly apathetic and cold, his state of mind also became increasingly difficult to affect.

Yin Nian thought about it and couldn’t help but ask, “What kind of person is the one in master’s heart?”

Yin Nian nodded and said, “I understand.”

No matter what caused the separation, it would always cause emotional injury. Emotional injury might drive you to death. Before long, the examination of the Craftsman Division came to an end. This year, there were several candidates talented in refining tools, which made the sages of the Tool Ocean Hall smile from ear to ear. However, it was necessary to continue to observe whether they could enter the Tool Ocean Hall.

Myriad Dao Academy’s Tool Ocean Hall’s Sages were obviously much more mature than those Pill Sages in Pill Limit Hall. At least, the kind of matter of bullying people based on personal beliefs didn’t appear.

The Craftsman Division and Dao Division followed the rules to the letter, and some outstanding candidates would become the target of people’s relish in the next period of time or even decades. However, not one of them was like Yan Tianhen, who had already received mixed reviews before he officially entered the school. As for Yin Nian, it was downright ruined, which was also a special case in the history of Myriad Dao Academy.

Every family had a courtyard it was used to and favored. For example, Royal Heavenly Capital had always favored the North Courtyard, including the Yan Family, which was the leader, but Yan Tianhen picked the East Courtyard this year. Gu Ruyu and Qi Feiqing, who had excellent relations with him, will naturally chose the East Courtyard.

There were also some of Yan Tianhen’s pursuers who made the same choice as him.

As for Yan Chenxiao, he went to the North Courtyard without any struggle, but for some reason Shen Qinghe stayed in the East Courtyard.

Among those who traveled with Yan Tianhen, there were also several people similar to “Shadow Guards” secretly sent by Yan Zhonghua, but they would never reveal themselves until when Yan Tianhen was in a critical state, and these Shadow Guards also respected their purpose of shadowing him. They would always protect Yan Tianhen in the dark, but they wouldn’t let people know their true identities.

And these people were spread all over the four courtyards of the east, west, south and north. On the one hand, it was to monitor the other descendants of Divine Clans scattered in these courtyards. On the other hand, they were also trying to grasp the latest movements of Courtyards and win over people’s hearts for Yan Tianhen, which was also an old practice in Divine Clans. Besides the Yan family, other families would naturally also make the same arrangements.

The Wan Family had always liked the South Courtyard, the bird clans liked the West Courtyard, and the Ying family, the beast clans, and the dragon clan also preferred the North Courtyard, — after all, the sword cultivation of the North Courtyard was the strongest among the four courtyards, and the majority of descendants of the Divine Clan used swords.

According to common sense, Yan Tianhen should also enter the North Courtyard, but he didn’t drift with the tide and didn’t like to act according to convention.

The Xuan clan of the East Lands naturally chose the East Courtyard.

The Southeast Land’s Yin family’s prophets didn’t need to be assessed. They just needed to enter the academy directly when school started. Moreover, they could choose any place in the four courtyards or enter the Sacrificial Temple in the sect.

The Sacrificial Temple was a mysterious place completely independent of the three divisions and the four courtyards. It had always been closed to the outside world, and only used for astrological divination. However, the Ling clan in the Northeast Lands had not had any children born for many years, so for many years it had never sent talents here.

In fact, Divine Clans had many choices when it came to their disciples’ future, and they didn’t necessarily have to pick Myriad Dao Academy, but if the disciples wanted to get their own power or base, Myriad Dao was always the best choice.

Here, there gathered a group of top talents in the whole continent, who came here with similar purposes to each other, looking for like-minded people, and then aimed to pour their blood for the vitality of the future of Nine Lands.

After the examination, only three days passed, and it was considered the real beginning of school.

Every year, the Academy had a large tuition fee to pay, and each person had to pay 100 low-grade spirit stones.

This amount could be easily paid out by disciples from distinguished families, but for most ordinary families, It was probably money that a family couldn’t get even in half a lifetime.

However, the Academy had its own methods so that those disciples that tested into Myriad Dao Academy but had no money to pay for school would have the opportunity to complete their studies.

There was a work-study program here. When Yan Tianhen came here for the first time, he was accompanying Yin Changge. Yin Changge was a very contradictory person. He could take such a big chunk of priceless crystal jade with him wherever he went, but he was penniless. The only thing of value that he had were the snacks he brought from a long distance away. For him, paying the tuition fee of one hundred low-grade spirit stones every year was even more difficult than killing him.

So after Yin Changge was admitted to the East Courtyard, he sharpened his knives and went to the work-study program office to register.

There were many kinds of work-study programs here — from helping the gentlemen raise spiritual plants to supervising research teams; from helping students to raise all kinds of demonic beasts placed by the students in the demonic beast garden to managing the library; and so on. There were many kinds of jobs. However, there was a serious imbalance between the number of jobs and people who needed them. In popular posts like the library managers and the supervision teams, there were no vacancies anymore. Yin Changge regarded himself as someone who had no talent for caring for spiritual plants, and he was afraid that he would kill the spiritual plants in a moment of carelessness and have to compensate money, so he chose to care for the demonic beasts.

Actually, the work of caring for demonic beasts was originally done by the Southwest Land’s beast clans. They only needed to roar once, using impressive strength to suppress them. Those demonic beasts that didn’t yet have sentience with low levels and probably will stay low level for the rest of their lives were soon scared to the point of collapsing to the ground and did not dare make careless decisions.

However, the Academy soon discovered the disadvantages of doing this kind of — those pitiful demonic beasts were excessively frightened, resulting in digestive disorders and their minds becoming dysfunctional, and some of them were so scared they never climbed up again, and they were listless in combat and generally useless.

Therefore, Myriad Dao Academy soon added a commandment to the rules: It is strictly forbidden for members of the beast clans to join the demonic beast care team.

Although the beast clans were shouting discrimination, the reality was that they also knew about their own their shortcomings. In addition, the beast clans only respected strength and didn’t have any established standards. The beast clan members that could be admitted to Myriad Dao Academy had naturally slaughtered their way through a reign of terror to get here. Thus, they could easily sell parts from the demonic beasts they killed in order to make a big profit.

When Yin Changge registered his name, he heard a few senior martial brothers beside him say, “I came here early this year to find a job to do for a teacher, but I didn’t expect these positions to be completely snatched clean already.”

“Of course, that’s natural — the choice of who gets to do odd jobs for teachers goes both ways. Who doesn’t want to work for teachers? It can possibly shelter you from the wind and rain while earning contribution points from the sect and learning something new at the same time. It is a pity that all the teachers have fixed disciples already, most of whom are disciples of the Divine Clans.”

“Tch — what were they saying about how there is no rank within the academy? Aren’t they still opening the door wide and easily for the Divine Clans? The academy has fallen.”

Yan Tianhen looked toward the side.

Obviously, one of the senior brothers knew Yan Tianhen. His expression changed slightly and he tugged at the outspoken person beside him, “Please speak less words.”

The person’s face was also stiff at the sight of Yan Tianhen.

Yan Tianhen felt that there was some truth in what they said. Not taking it to heart, he said, “I just heard you say something about the contribution points of the school. What is that?”

Those senior martial brothers were originally afraid of him bearing grudges and dealing with them, but instead of mentioning important information, he talked about contribution points instead.

The senior martial brother who talked at the start cupped his hands and bowed to Yan Tianhen. “Junior Martial Brother just came to the sect. I’m afraid you don’t know much. There are no spirit stone transactions inside Myriad Dao Academy, only the exchange of sect contribution points.”

Yan Tianhen was stunned and said, “Is there such a saying? How can you exchange for the sect contribution points, then?”

The senior martial brother said, “Manual labor, planting, raising, sorting out books, working for teachers, and so on can bring in contribution points, but the amount is relatively small. In addition, the way to get points quickly is to enter the evil spirit array, take on commissions, do business, challenge arrays, and so on. However, the risk of the latter is relatively large, and the evil spirit array and commission list are off-limits to you in your first year of school.”

Yan Tianhen’s entire person was a bit shocked. “Didn’t those dormitories before still use spirit stones for rent?”

The senior martial brother smiled and explained, “At that time, you were new here, and you were not disciples of the school. Naturally, the rules of the school did not bind to you. However, there is another way, you can go into Ethereal City to exchange using spirit stones, but a mid-grade spirit stone can only be exchanged for one contribution point, this ratio clearly states it’s cheating people out of their money.”

The other senior martial brother also added, “Yes, unless that person has a ton of money, no one will exchange it.”

Yan Tianhen couldn’t stop asking, “Then, what if I want to exchange contribution points with others inside the sect?”
