C56 Struggle
The strength test proceeded in an orderly manner. It was half an hour later before it was Li Xiaobai's turn. At this time, the gigantic screen in front of the gymnasium displayed over 1800 jins of strength, a total of 10 people. The first place had almost reached 1900 jins.
"Boss, don't give me any face, you have to use your full strength!" Gao Dazhuang shouted as Li Xiaobai moved forward.
Hearing Gao Dazhuang's words, Li Xiaobai smiled. In reality, she had no intention of holding back. After waiting and working hard for so long, Li Xiaobai wanted to become the strongest candidate for the entire country at this moment!
Standing in front of the testing machine, Li Xiaobai took a deep breath and shouted softly. She gathered all her strength before punching the machine with her fist. With a bang, the huge machine moved back a foot before stopping.
The loud noise naturally attracted the attention of all the teachers and students. Even the people sitting on the platform some distance away looked over at Li Xiaobai's direction. When they saw the numbers displayed on the machine, everyone's eyes widened.
"Ahem, you can celebrate now!" Li Xiaobai pretended to cough dryly and said softly.
Hearing Li Xiaobai's words, Gao Dazhuang was the first to shout out loud, "2500 jin! "Boss, you're really abnormal!"
Along with Gao Dazhuang's cheer, all the examinees of Jiang-Nan's number one high level martial arts school cheered. Although the results were not theirs, they still felt very honored. After all, such a result could definitely get the first place in this year's National Martial Arts Examination.
At that moment, a tall figure jumped down from the platform and sprinted towards Li Xiaobai. It was a two-meter-tall man with a bald head and wearing a large monastic robe.
I am a teacher at the Shakya Martial Arts Academy. You have been accepted by the academy, so there is no need for further examinations. Furthermore, as long as you agree to come to our academy, not only will the fees be exempted, you will also receive a scholarship of 20,000 every year! The bald brute shouted at Li Xiaobai.
After hearing the bald man's words, the examinees of the Jiangnan exam were naturally envious of Li Xiaobai. They all felt that Li Xiaobai would definitely agree to it. After all, the bald man's conditions were quite good.
However, just as the bald man finished his sentence, two other figures jumped over. One of them was a middle-aged man wearing a suit with a gold-rimmed glasses. "Student, our Imperial City Martial Arts Academy will give you three hundred thousand scholarships every year. We can also give you an account number for the capital!"
The bald man, Ji Hepeng, heard what the middle-aged man said and was about to say something when he was interrupted by a petite middle-aged woman. She looked to be in her forties, but her charm was still there.
"Little classmate, although our Jiangnan Martial Arts Academy is not as rich as the Imperial Capital Martial Arts Academy, you have to understand that our Jiangnan is filled with beauties. Are you sure you don't want to come to the Jiangnan Martial Academy?" The middle-aged woman said to Li Xiaobai in a soft and gentle voice.
However, before Li Xiaobai could reply, another figure shot out from the main platform and landed in front of Li Xiaobai. Other than the Dragon Tiger Martial Palace and the Southern Sea Martial Palace, all the other Martial House envoys were staring at Li Xiaobai as if she was a treasure.
"Student, I believe you have seen my Imperial Sword Technique. As long as you come to our Qingcheng Martial Palace, you will have the chance to learn this technique." The envoy of the Qingcheng Martial Palace said to Li Xiaobai while patting the heavy sword behind him.
Hearing his words, the other Martial House Envoys coldly snorted and then began to propose conditions to fight for Li Xiaobai. As for the instructors of the three Martial Academies, they had long been pushed to the back.
"Everyone, I think it's best if you don't waste anymore time. How about you decide after the exam is over?" Just when the competition among the Martial House envoys was getting more and more intense, City Lord Li Guodong spoke in a soft voice.
Hearing this, all the Martial House envoys stopped fighting and immediately condensed their Zhen Qi into a pair of wings and flew back to the main platform. The teachers of the three Martial Academies could only run back to their respective platforms.
Seeing this, Li Xiaobai let out a sigh of relief and stepped back. As he walked back, he glanced at the huge screen and immediately felt smug. At this moment, his picture had already appeared on the screen and he was the first in the strength test.
"The more I watch, the more handsome I get!" Li Xiaobai said proudly as she looked at her own picture on the giant screen.
The strength test continued. Because there were nine big exam halls in the country, each with six to seven thousand people, or even tens of thousands, taking the martial arts exam, the strength test was carried out very slowly. It took two hours before it finally ended.
During this process, the pictures on the giant screen kept changing, and the score on the strength test was getting higher and higher. However, Li Xiaobai continued to occupy the first spot until the strength test ended, and no one surpassed her.
After the strength test ended, the teachers of the various martial arts schools quickly started to adjust the testing machine. Once they were done, they would begin the true energy test.
In the past twenty years, because of the recovery of the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, not only did the physique of the Chinese become better, their population also continued to increase explosively. Even so, there were only a few who were able to become a martial artist and reach the requirements to enter an advanced martial arts school.
Because of this, even if the examinees of the national martial arts exam won't be accepted by the three great martial arts academies, they won't fail, because those who don't meet the criteria to enter the martial arts academy will be recruited into the Chinese military and become soldiers protecting their homeland.
The minimum requirement for last year's National Martial Arts Examination was a mid-stage seventh level martial artist. As long as this standard was met, one could be selected by the three great martial academies. Of course, each year during the martial arts exam, talented people would appear, so it was nothing new to have a martial artist of the eighth or even the ninth level in the process of the true qi exam.
Soon, all the photos on the giant screen were changed. The first examinee that appeared on the giant screen was from Qingzhou City, and he had even reached the intermediate level of the level of the level eight martial artist.
The examinees from the three martial arts academies in Jiang-Nan city and the envoys from the Martial House stared at the huge screen with envious and regretful expressions. If that examinee was in Jiang-Nan city, they would definitely fight for him.
In the next moment, the teachers of the three Martial Academies and the envoys from the Martial House all looked towards Li Xiaobai's location. All of their faces were filled with anticipation; they really wanted to see if Li Xiaobai, the examinee who had created a new record in the strength test, would be able to create another miracle!
