Chapter 633: Famous Across the World

Three days later, the entrance exams ended, and the enrollment spots were officially confirmed.

As the printed letters and online notifications arrived, some celebrated while others felt disappointment. Many unwilling candidates once again logged into the official website to check their standings.

But they returned disappointed, for Zixue Academy was almost certain to be error-free. As the execution carrier for the continent’s marker plan, the five major schools possessed the world’s top spirit energy computers capable of future calculations. The only possibility of errors in ordinary enrollment qualifications would be due to external interference.

Before they logged out, they noticed that the homepage was promoting the Rookie King, with all sorts of outrageous slogans.

“Indeed, Qing Liu Sheng has become the representative of the Class of 8100, the strongest Rookie King in history…”

“Officially certified!”

As they watched the promotional video, they nodded in agreement.

By the end of the first day, various pieces of information spread across the internet. The battle between Qing Liu Sheng and He Shiguang from the Ten Seats was already exposed.

The spectacular duel, which resembled a dance, along with its incredible dominance, had made Qing Liu Sheng go viral countless times, earning fame across the world.

In the following two days, several Super Geniuses achieved perfect scores, but they also faced one of the Ten Seats in the practical test.

Naturally, the result was a dismal defeat; no one could overpower the Ten Seats like Qing Liu Sheng could.

Under such circumstances, there could only be one representative for the newcomers.

Perfect scores—Qing Liu Sheng.

The new freshman representative from Zixue Academy was not only astonishing within the school but also stirred up a storm in the other five major schools.

Given that the five major schools were of similar strength, it was difficult for any of them to confidently say, “The Ten Seats of this generation at Zixue Academy are too weak, allowing a newcomer to crush them.”

In other words, even if the Ten Seats from the other five major schools faced the prodigy Qing Liu Sheng, they could very well be defeated; he was indeed invincible in the Mortal Realm.

On television and various media outlets, the entire Tengzhou was buzzing with news of the results from the five major schools.

At the same time, the new generation of Rookie Kings drew immense attention.

“This is a rare situation with one super genius and four strong contenders; unless something unexpected happens, Zixue Academy is set to make a big impact!”

“Indeed, this person likely cultivates Heavenly Grade techniques, and his innate talent has reached the Heavenly level; otherwise, he would have no chance of resisting the Ten Seats.”

“I wonder if the Cave Techniques he practices are Earth’s Wind, Water, and Fire, or the Five Elements… or perhaps the Heavenly Dry?”

“No, no, no! Heavenly Stem Cave Heaven has already been banned from cultivation. Currently, with the Heavenly Dry Universe suppressing it, the same techniques cannot grow; they would conflict with the Heavenly Dry Universe.”

“It’s better to say that in today’s era, anyone wanting to open a cave must oppose the Heavenly Dry Universe, which is simply impossible…”

The public online buzzed with excitement.

Elites from various major powers had their eyes on the newcomers from the five major schools, and discussions would continue for a long time.

“Master Liu Sheng, have you received the notice? Every year’s representatives need to go to school early to prepare speeches, and each subject will also select one additional person as a deputy representative to form a freshman council for managing the first-year students.”

Long Linglong, dressed in a maid outfit, poured tea for Yun Ye, her delicate face showing little expression. She was very diligent, unlike the princess of the Wanling Group.

“What is the freshman council?”

Yun Ye asked after thanking her.

“The All-Career Elite Society is a group made up of top talents from every field, responsible for managing students in each grade. At Zixue Academy, every student’s talent and intelligence are at the top of the world; there is no possibility of mediocre students just passing time at an ordinary school. Therefore, every member of the society must possess the strength and wisdom to earn respect. The Rookie King and the top of each subject represent the most effective achievements.”

“Of course, with the current level of technology, we also do not need to manage directly; there is rarely anything that requires our personal intervention.”

Long Linglong explained, indicating that this role would not consume personal time and was more of an honor.

“What about the Ten Seats?”

Yun Ye asked cautiously.

“There are four grades at Zixue Academy, corresponding to four stages of courses. After four years, if a student’s ability remains outstanding, they can join the ‘Zixue All-Career Society,’ and the top ten in this society are called the Ten Seats.”

Long Linglong replied.

“So, only the ten strongest among all the past Rookie Kings can become the Ten Seats? Is there no age limit?”

Yun Ye mused, realizing the significant prestige involved.

“There is, actually. Once you reach a hundred years of age, you can no longer hold a position in the Ten Seats. He Shiguang is one of the younger Ten Seats, at only twenty-five.”

Long Linglong shook her head.

“How often do the Ten Seats change?”

Yun Ye asked.

“On average, one changes every ten years. Zixue Academy has always wanted to shorten the replacement time, but the educational level has now reached a limit, and it cannot be broken through. It solely depends on whether new students can surpass the previous generations. However, making significant progress in just ten years is incredibly difficult, and further compression is largely based on luck.”

Long Linglong explained.

Yun Ye nodded, surprised… Changing every ten years seemed somewhat ridiculous—not because it was too long, but because it was too short.

With talent like the Ten Seats, even if one emerged every ten years, would they necessarily grow to the end?

Not necessarily; talent is just talent and cannot directly translate into the future.

Zixue Academy had clearly stated before enrollment that the mortality rate for students is extremely high. Even among the Ten Seats, there could be fatalities. What about students who have not reached the level of the Ten Seats?

In such a scenario, at least three or even five students with the potential to become Ten Seats need to emerge to have even one succeed.

He Shiguang’s talent in ancient times would be second only to the Master of Heaven’s Cavern, absolutely enough to be ranked as unmatched and undefeated in the Red Heaven realm.

And in this era, there are at least three to five such prodigies every ten years?

There is no doubt that now, nine thousand years later, various systems have been completely perfected; even if the spirit energy of heaven and earth is depleted, the soil for genius still exists.

And now with a Ten Seat emerging every ten years, it shows that even now, the Celestial Empire is still progressing.

He Shiguang’s strength demonstrates that while there are fewer practitioners today, their quality has improved to an unprecedented level.

Those standing at the pinnacle of cultivation typically possess unmatched and undefeated potential, even if they do not quite reach the level of the era of Heaven’s Cavern, they are not far behind.

“Hehe, interesting.”

Yun Ye smiled, realizing that this era clearly favors those with talent, leaving no chance for ordinary people to rise.

But from the current perspective, the development and order of the Celestial Empire are remarkably perfect. There are even ways to report issues directly to Shui Wuge; perhaps he could witness the unparalleled talents of today’s world.

With Shui Wuge around, his mediocre governance skills need not be put on display; focusing on cultivating to become the strongest is his true task.

In terms of cultivation, he is truly an expert.
