Magic City Academy, Combat Hall Number Seven.

As the dedicated combat hall for the Academy's Beast Taming College, it is quite large and equipped with very complete internal facilities.

After all, among the Academy's four colleges, the only one that frequently engages in combat is the Beast Taming College. As such, Combat Hall Number Seven is nearly the size of Combat Hall Number One, which is used for competitions.

However, this is, after all, a combat hall for students, and its internal facilities can only support battles up to the fifth-tier Monarch level. Compared to Combat Hall Number One, which is sufficient for sixth-tier King-Sealing experts to engage in a major battle, it is still quite inferior.

Even so, Combat Hall Number Seven is no weaker than the most advanced combat halls in some ordinary cities.

At this moment, inside the combat hall, led by teacher Yan Yelin, all the students of the Class 119 Special Training Program have arrived here, at a large open-air combat field numbered 100.

According to the teacher, this combat field, which is a full thousand meters long and wide, is the classroom space occupied by their class.

Combat fields numbered 101 to 110 are the training grounds owned by the other ten classes of freshmen. These combat fields are all the same size, but they are all smaller than Number 100, and the level of various basic facilities is also lower.

According to teacher Yan Yelin, these are all the privileges of the special training class. As the strongest and most special class in each year of the Academy, the various privileges and resources possessed by the special training class are much greater than those of ordinary classes.

However, precisely because of this, those who perform outstandingly in other classes have the opportunity to enter the special training class, while those who perform poorly in the special training class will be returned to ordinary classes.

Ye Mo and the others understood this point, but the teacher did not explain so clearly how to enter and return.

As the group arrived on one side of the wide grassland, sunlight shone down through the clouds, illuminating the grassland brightly.

Looking at the students whose curiosity overflowed, instructor Yan Yelin stopped and said to everyone: "What I am about to say is very important to you, so everyone listen carefully."

As soon as the teacher said this, the forty students who were scattered around immediately turned their heads, all eyes looking at the teacher.

Therefore, the interval between the holding of this competition purely depends on luck. If the luck is not good, and it has not reached the level recognized by the Alliance, it is likely that the Freshman Competition will not be held for several or even more than ten consecutive years.

As far as I know, the longest interval since the establishment of the Freshman Competition was eleven years.

And you are very lucky this year. According to the notice within the school, the Freshman Competition will be held this year."

At this point, Yan Yelin temporarily stopped speaking, and the dozens of students standing in front, after hearing this, mostly had puzzled confusion arise in their minds.

"Freshman Competition? What kind of competition is that?"

"It sounds like a competition that students like us who have just entered university can participate in, but what exactly is it? Does anyone know?"

"I don't know, I don't recognize it, but it sounds like it should be good news, right? Should be?"

Students who didn't understand the Freshman Competition at all asked curiously, while some students who knew or recognized the Freshman Competition exclaimed.

"It's actually the Freshman Competition! Our class will actually hold it."

"That's the Freshman Competition. It is said that several legendary Beastmasters have obtained great benefits after achieving good results in the Freshman Competition, and their strength and cultivation have rapidly improved."

As the students communicated with each other, soon, almost all the students understood the importance of the Freshman Competition. Although they didn't know the specifics, they all knew one thing in their hearts, that is, if they could participate in the Freshman Competition, they would surely obtain great benefits.

On one side of the team, Zhang Sanyun, a boy who was excited to hear about the Freshman Competition, turned his head and said excitedly: "Brother Sun, it's the Freshman Competition. Our class will actually hold the Freshman Competition."

Another boy, Li Siqi, walked over, looked at the other party, and snorted softly: "Didn't you hear what the teacher said? Only when the talent and potential of this year's students are excellent enough will the Freshman Competition be held. Our class can hold it, it must be because there is a genius like Brother Sun."

Regarding the words of these two people, Sun Guanyu, who was standing in the middle, wanted to suppress the excitement in his heart, but he couldn't help but slightly raise the corners of his mouth.

"Cough, you guys are exaggerating too much. Although I am talented, there are people beyond people, and there are heavens beyond the sky. There may be people among the freshmen in other academies who are not weaker than me."

As soon as this was said, Zhang Sanyun, the boy who spoke first, walked over and waved his hands repeatedly, saying: "Brother Sun, you are too modest. Your spirit pet has already entered the fourth tier. With your strength, it would not be an exaggeration to say that you are a master-level Beastmaster."

Another person also quickly said: "That's right, with your strength, Brother Sun, what are you being modest about? Your strength was obvious to all in the test a few days ago. Not to mention other academies, at least Brother Sun, you are the strongest freshman in our Magic City Academy this year."

Hearing the somewhat flattering words of the two, Sun Guanyu wanted to pretend to be expressionless, but a smile that could not be suppressed still overflowed on his face.

He knows a lot about the Freshman Competition. After all, when learning about the background and experience of some powerful Beastmasters, many strong people will mention the Freshman Competition.

On the other side of the team, in the position where Ye Mo and his ten people gathered, Bai Tingting and the others also showed surprised expressions after hearing about the Freshman Competition.

But soon, after Ye Mo briefly explained it to them, Wang Ruolong and the others understood some of it.

"So that's how it is, then we have to work hard, otherwise, if we can't participate in the Freshman Competition, wouldn't it be a great loss,"

Bai Tingting said with her tongue tied after listening.

Li Lei shook his head on the side. He, who usually talks a lot, was rarely serious this time, "According to what Ye Mo said, with my strength, I am afraid that the difficulty of participating in the Freshman Competition will be very high."

As soon as these words came out, many people in the special enrollment team felt downcast.

Although their strength and talent are not low, and they are geniuses among their peers, even among the ten of them, there are relatively obvious differences between each other.

For example, Ye Mo, without thinking, would be separated into a separate level, and then there would be Bai Tingting who returned from another world. Although her strength is not at the level of being a big step away from others, the gap between them is not small.

For example, Li Lei, who just spoke, his spirit pet is the Abyss Giant Turtle of the commander race. Through the resources obtained in the initial experience, he has cultivated his spirit pet quite well, but now the spirit pet level is only thirty-five.

Among the other people, there are even many whose level is lower than this. Compared with Bai Tingting's spirit pet's level 39, the gap is too big.

Wang Ruolong did have a sliver of confidence in his heart. After experiencing the alien world, his Earth Scale Armored Dragon, one of his two spirit pets, had been deliberately trained and was now approaching level 39, possessing considerable strength. During the initial entrance test, he relied on this spirit pet to perform exceptionally well.

However, even so, the confidence in his heart was still insufficient. After all, he didn't know how many spots were available for the academy's freshman competition. If there were only two or three, he would have absolutely no chance.

He absolutely couldn't defeat Ye Mo and Sun Guanyu, who possessed fourth-order spirit pets, and Bai Tingting's spirit pet had been stuck at level 39 for some time. Furthermore, given her wealth and generosity, he was definitely no match for her either.

Besides these three, there were many others whose strength wasn't far from his. He could easily be defeated if he wasn't careful. Under these circumstances, how could he be at ease?

This thought wasn't unique to Wang Ruolong. After discussing amongst themselves, the other students in the team guessed the matter of the competition slots.

Therefore, many of the weaker students sighed in unwillingness, while some of the students with decent strength were also uneasy.

In the entire class of forty students, it could be said that only Ye Mo and Sun Guanyu were truly confident.

On the grass, Teacher Yan Yelin, who was standing at the front of the team, clapped his hands. As the sound rang out, the somewhat noisy team instantly quieted down, and all the students' gazes turned towards him.

Yan Yelin spoke earnestly to the students, "Alright, everyone, please be quiet."

"In short, the freshman competition is a large-scale competition led by the Alliance and assisted by the top ten academies, which only freshmen like you can participate in."

"The rewards for the competition are extremely generous. I don't know exactly what they are, but as far as I know, any student who can enter the top five in the freshman competition will inevitably become a fifth-order King-level Beastmaster before graduation, as long as no accidents occur."

Fifth-order before graduation! After these words were spoken, the entire special training class erupted.

Fifth-order before graduation! What kind of concept was this? For these geniuses who came from all over the country and were top students in their respective high schools, being able to become a fifth-order was already what most of them hoped for.

But in fact, most of them would be stuck at the bottleneck of breaking through to the fifth-order, and then spend their whole lives like that.

Even worse, if their luck was bad, they might even get stuck at the fourth-order bottleneck.

In the end, although they were geniuses, and mostly geniuses who had awakened seven-star charts, the Yanhuang Alliance would produce a batch of geniuses like them every year.

What realm they could truly cultivate to still depended on individual effort and opportunity.

And this freshman competition that had appeared was a great opportunity for this group of people.

Looking at the excited and agitated students, Yan Yelin smiled and continued, "This year's freshman competition, our Shanghai Academy has five official competition slots and five preliminary competition slots."

"As the name suggests, the former will directly advance to the official competition, while the latter will need to participate in the preliminary competition and compete for extremely rare slots from among thousands of freshmen."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of everyone in the special training class changed drastically.

Among them, some freshmen with good strength showed joy. For these people, even if they couldn't compete for the top five, they still had a good chance of getting into the top ten.

Some freshmen had ugly expressions because their strength was in between. If they were said to be weak, their strength was actually quite strong, and most people in the class were not their opponents. But if they were said to be strong, their strength hadn't reached a certain level, and entering the top ten would depend heavily on luck.

There were also some freshmen who were helpless. Most of these freshmen were self-aware and knew their own strength, so they had completely given up the idea of competing for the so-called freshman competition slots.

"There are actually ten slots, then I can definitely get one. Mengxi, you should also work hard, there is still a chance for the top ten." Bai Tingting, with a smile, turned her head to look at her good friend Liu Mengxi and said earnestly.

Hearing her best friend's words, Liu Mengxi just smiled bitterly and nodded lightly. Her strength was at the bottom of the special enrollment students, and with this strength, it was too difficult to enter the top ten in the class.

Among the others, except for Ye Mo, who remained unchanged, Wang Ruolong was overjoyed and a clear smile appeared on his face. And the others, such as Su Yingpeng and Li Lei, also had the idea of obtaining a slot in their hearts.

If there were only five slots, most of them probably wouldn't have any ideas, but ten slots were different.

After the entrance test, it could be said that everyone had a simple understanding of their classmates' strength. Therefore, they all understood that except for a very few students whose strength was too outstanding, the strength gap between the others was actually not that big.

In fact, thinking about it, everyone was mostly at the third-order cultivation level. Under this circumstance, even if they were a few levels behind, how big could the gap be?

As for spirit pets, most of them were of the commander race, and the difference was not that big. If they really had to compete, there were actually many people in the special training class who had the opportunity to compete for the top ten slots.

Although they were only competing for the preliminary competition slots, it was still an opportunity. If there was an opportunity, who among those who could come here would give up?

Seeing the students like this, the guiding teacher Yan Yelin smiled lightly and continued, "These ten freshman competition slots, according to the academy's judgment, have already selected their targets."

"But this doesn't mean that the slots are completely determined. You must know that the freshman competition is different from the academy competition. It is a completely individual competition, and everything is based on individual strength."

"So the determination of the slots is also related to strength. From today until the beginning of November, the official competition slots and the preliminary competition slots will be fought for by yourselves. As long as you defeat the slot holders, then you can obtain the slots yourselves."

Looking at the eager students below, Teacher Yan Yelin didn't pause much and directly said the current holders of the slots.

"The current holders of the official competition slots are Ye Mo, Sun Guanyu, Bai Tingting, Du Jun, and Wang Ruolong. The holders of the preliminary competition slots are…"

After the teacher announced the slots, the ordinary freshmen in the special training class were stunned. These freshmen knew a lot about Sun Guanyu, Bai Tingting, and Du Jun, but Ye Mo, the special enrollment student who had just been selected as the class monitor, was now also on the list, and on the official competition slot list, which really surprised many people.

But more freshmen were curious about Ye Mo. After all, being directly selected as the class monitor and also obtaining a slot, no matter how you looked at it, it was unusual.

At this time, Sun Guanyu's face sank, and he looked in Ye Mo's direction with a solemn expression. Although he was very confident in his strength, the fact that the other party could be treated like this by the school meant that his strength must be extraordinary.

However, he wasn't too worried, after all, he had held back during the initial entrance test, and his true strength was enough to fight against an elite fourth-order.
