Seeing the somewhat distressed expressions on their faces, Lin Feng chuckled softly and then slowly spoke.
"This is the academy's second hurdle."
"Our entrance examination consists of ten stages."
"Each level is worth 10 points, for a total of 100 points."
"To enter the inner courtyard, the total score must reach 85 points or above."
Lin Feng paused at this point.
"As for the passing score for the foreign language department, it is 60 points."
"Of course, this is the standard for recruiting 'monsters'."
"For ordinary people, we have a different set of standards."
"As long as you pass the second test of willpower and the ninth test of character, you can enter the outer academy of Shrek Academy."
Beibei was stunned when she heard Lin Feng's words.
He quickly did the calculations in his mind.
If 60 points is the passing score, then on average, getting 6 points per level is enough.
However... even so, it is definitely not an easy task.
Just now, he and Tang Ya personally experienced the so-called second level.
That terrifying dragon's might felt like a mountain pressing down on their chests, making it difficult for them to breathe and almost suffocating them.
It's so difficult to hold on for even a few seconds, let alone reach the qualified standard!
Even for ordinary people, this second stage is a necessary part of the assessment, and passing it is not easy.
Tang Ya patted her chest, still feeling a bit shaken, and couldn't help but ask.
"If it were the assessment we just took... how many points could we get?"
Lin Feng shook his head and told the truth.
"That was just to give you a taste of what it's like; the assessment ended early."
"Therefore, none of the three of you have received a score yet."
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao's eyes dimmed slightly, and he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
He felt he must have performed terribly just now, and he almost fainted.
Lin Feng seemed to have seen through Huo Yuhao's thoughts, and then spoke up.
Don't be discouraged.
"If you have the idea of joining Shrek Academy after you have completed all ten assessments, you can choose to stay and formally participate in the assessments."
"As long as you can join Shrek Academy and withstand the tests that follow."
"Then I can guarantee that I can make you monsters in the eyes of ordinary people."
Then he added another sentence.
"And there's one more crucial point."
"At Shrek Academy, once you're in, there's no such thing as dropping out."
"We will be responsible for every student to the end."
Huo Yuhao suddenly raised his head, and his eyes lit up as he listened to Lin Feng's confident assurance.
Once you're enrolled, you won't drop out?
This short sentence seemed to reassure Huo Yuhao.
The scales that had been wavering in my heart tipped instantly.
He made a decision in secret.
I want to stay at this school!
As for the "Shrek Academy" that Beibei and Tangya mentioned, he didn't want to join it.
The reason is simple and realistic.
First, the gap in strength.
Bei Bei was a three-ring Soul Master, and possessed the top-tier Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Martial Soul, but what was the result?
Even Ye Xinglan from the Second Ring Road couldn't beat him; in fact, he was completely overwhelmed.
Secondly, and this is what Huo Yuhao is most worried about.
Shrek Academy has extremely high entry requirements; it only accepts monsters, and the rejection rate is extremely high.
He was just a useless person with innate level one soul power. Even if he got in with a recommendation letter from the Tang Sect, it was uncertain whether he could stay.
If I get expelled from school, that would be true despair.
He wanted to become stronger, and he wanted to avenge his mother...
Therefore, Dean Lin Feng's Shrek Academy is clearly more suitable for him!
Because the philosophy here is to empower ordinary people!
Just then, the excited voice of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm rang out in Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea.
"Yuhao! Stay! You must stay!"
"This school is truly extraordinary!"
"Especially that painting just now... I only glanced at it, but I felt like my soul was about to fly away!"
"That terrifying aura... it's just like facing that one in the Star Dou Great Forest..."
"Beast God, Di Tian!"
Upon hearing Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's words, Huo Yuhao's last shred of concern vanished.
Even Tianmeng, a million-year-old soul beast, said so, so what is there to hesitate about?
Huo Yuhao nodded heavily, his eyes filled with fighting spirit.
"I want to stay!"
Lin Feng didn't notice Huo Yuhao's inner thoughts. He led the three of them inside while introducing the upcoming assessment content.
"The third test is a strength test."
"It's very simple: attack the examiner with all your might, or strike the strength-measuring soul tool, to test pure power."
"The fourth test: speed and reaction test."
"You need to navigate through a passage filled with light and shadow attacks, dodging the attacks while reaching the finish line within a specified time."
"The fifth stage, the second professional assessment."
"This is a unique feature of our academy. Showcase your secondary talents or abilities, such as blacksmith, mecha designer, mecha maker, chef, etc..."
"Sixth level, comprehensive combat."
"Compete against current students of the academy in real combat, and score based on how long you last or whether you defeat your opponent."
"Seventh challenge: Endurance test."
"There is no time limit, until you are completely exhausted."
"..."
"Finally, the tenth trial: a three-way trial."
"I, along with other senior members of the academy, will conduct a comprehensive evaluation of you."
As Lin Feng recounted the assessment projects one by one, Bei Bei and Tang Ya couldn't help but gasp.
The two looked at each other and saw the bitterness in each other's eyes.
It's too difficult.
This is much harder than getting into Shrek Academy!
And it's quite complicated!
Especially that second career assessment.
They are just ordinary soul masters. Besides cultivating soul power, what other side professions do they have?
As for the "mecha designer" Lin Feng mentioned...
What is that?
Unheard of!
At this moment, Beibei and Tangya became acutely aware of the terror and mystery surrounding this academy.
After introducing all the assessment projects, Lin Feng stopped, turned around, looked at the three of them, and asked with a smile.
That's roughly the process.
"So, is anyone planning to take the exam and join Shrek Academy?"
Beibei and Tangya exchanged a glance and gave each other apologetic smiles.
Beibei stepped forward, cupped her hands in greeting, and said...
"Thank you for your kind offer, Dean."
"But... we are now a member of another Shrek Academy."
"So, we won't participate."
Although this place is very strong, they still have deep feelings for their Shrek Academy.
Moreover... they urgently need to go back and report on the intelligence here.
Lin Feng nodded, indicating his understanding.
Then, his gaze fell on Huo Yuhao at the very back.
"And what about you?"
Huo Yuhao took a deep breath and stepped out from behind Bei Bei.
He raised his head, his bright eyes shining with an unprecedented determination.
"Dean."
"I...I want to try!"
"I want to join Shrek Academy!"
Hearing this, Beibei and Tangya were both a little surprised, but they did not stop them.
After all, everyone has the right to choose their own path, and... if Huo Yuhao can really stay here, it might be a good opportunity.
Lin Feng looked at Huo Yuhao, a slight smile playing on his lips.
"good."
It's enough that Huo Yuhao stays.
As for Beibei and Tang Ya...
Lin Feng felt no regret; on the contrary, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He was genuinely worried that these two might impulsively decide to stay.
If they stay, who will go back to the original Shrek Academy to report the news?
The only way is to let them go back and spread the word about what they saw here...
Only by having Shrek Academy suspended in the air can its reputation spread far and wide.
