Chapter 47: Departure! Tianhai's No. Advanced Elf Academy

"You should have all received the notice. I will take you there to sign up at 8 a.m. tomorrow."

A week ago, Zi Mu and his companions received an invitation to take the entrance test from Tianhai City's No. 1 Advanced Elf Academy.

"I asked a friend who works at Tianhai No. 14 Advanced Elf Academy, and he roughly knows the process of your entrance examination." Zi Chao looked at the people who were lost in thought and spoke slowly, "For this year's Tianhai No. 17 Advanced Elf Academy, the minimum elf affinity required for the general class should be , and the elite class should be ."

After hearing Zichao's words, the solemn faces of several people relaxed a little. Judging from their current strength, it should not be a problem for them to enter the elite class.

After two months of training, Zi Mu's affinity with the elves has reached 20. Shangguan Chuang and Su Xier have also reached 21 and 23 respectively. Their strength is undoubtedly outstanding among their peers.

The enrollment requirements of general advanced elf academies will include the academy's minimum elf affinity requirements. After more than a year of training elf affinity, the average trainer will reach a level of 10-20, and the advanced elf academy will set the minimum elf affinity requirements based on the school's requirements. (For details, please refer to Chapter 19 of Volume : Bangilas' "Thank You Gift", which has a general level differentiation, and the training method of the Qianji School is not included)

When you are just able to cultivate your Pokémon affinity, since the trainer's initial affinity is usually awakened very early and has been suppressed in the body, there will be a "surge period" when you first start cultivating. The trainer's Pokémon affinity will increase significantly during this period, and after reaching the intermediate affinity, it will slow down again. This is why the Advanced Pokémon Academy only lasts for one year.

Even so, it was rare for a trainer to reach level 20 during the "rush period" of the year. To reach the level of 20 Pokémon affinity before the enrollment of the Advanced Pokémon Academy, one must at least be a genius with an initial Pokémon affinity of 7.5 or above.

The requirement of having a trainer with an affinity of 14 or above is actually not very demanding. As long as you practice diligently over the past year, you will have a chance to achieve it even if your initial affinity with your Pokémon is only 3-5.

"Pokemon with an affinity of 20 or above can skip the first round of trainer evaluation and go directly to the elite class." Zi Chao took out his phone, looked at the message his friend sent him, and read it to Zi Mu and the others, "You have no problem getting into the elite class now, but I have heard some unusual news this year."

As the others looked at each other in confusion, Zi Chao pulled the screen with his hand and said, "According to previous years' practice, Tianhai First Advanced Elf Academy usually has 20 classes with 30-40 students. Two of them are elite classes with a total of 2 students each."

Although Pokémon affinity does not reflect a person's strength, it does reflect a person's upper limit. As the first advanced Pokémon academy in the capital city of Nanlin Province, Tianhai City's enrollment is well-known throughout the province, and even in the Naigrin region. This is why Tianhai City dared to openly release the requirement of only recruiting trainers with a Pokémon affinity of 10 or above, when the minimum requirement for Pokémon academies across the country is 14 Pokémon affinity.

"This year, Tianhai's No. 1 Advanced Elf Academy has implemented a new strategy. There is only one elite class this year!"

"Ah?" The three of them were a little surprised. After all, if Tianhai's No. 20 Advanced Elf Academy only accepted top students, the requirements would be a bit harsh.

The enrollment of 600-800 students does not mean that only 600-800 people in the province have reached 14 elf affinity. Obviously, the second round of tests is the real "entrance test"! Correspondingly, there must be quite a few people who have reached 17 elf affinity, and the top students of Tianhai College must be even more fierce. Although Zi Mu and the other two are very strong, it would be a lie to say that they are not worried about this kind of exam for the first time.

Seeing the surprised looks on their faces, Zi Chao turned off his phone and put it in his pocket. He reached into his trouser pockets again and said calmly, "However, the number of people has increased to 30. The remaining 10 people will form a new class, which will also be Tianhai's true ace class."

Zi Mu and the others heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, and the psychological pressure was reduced a lot. After all, now it is a guaranteed elite class, and you can even sprint to the ace class, so why not?

What? Why is he guaranteed to be admitted to the elite class? Big Brother! Shangguan Chuang, who is the worst among the group, has reached an initial elf affinity of 8 (Shangguan Chuang is 8.1-8.2, Su Xier is about 8.3-8.4, and Zi Mu is now 9.8-9.9 after the baptism of dream energy. The 0.5 system is used, which is the closest to the average value, so Shangguan Chuang is 8.0, Su Xier is 8.5, and Zi Mu is infinitely close to 10). He also received special training and spent a lot of money to cultivate elves. He also has Zi Mu, the "elf master", who is by his side to personally guide him. It would be too unreasonable if he is not guaranteed to be admitted.

"The selection method is also very simple. It is the same 1v1 elf battle as the second round test. Each of the 40 people will fight three times. In the end, the school will decide the final 10 people based on the comprehensive performance of the three games."

The tests in general academies are divided into trainer affinity tests, Pokémon level tests, and actual combat tests between trainers and Pokémons. Tianhai Academy's tests use the first and third items, which are also the most common testing methods.

People are selected on a large scale based on their affinity with elves, and finally the more versatile elites are selected from a smaller range of elites. This is the enrollment method of Tianhai's No. 1 Advanced Elf Academy.

"You should be able to pass the first two rounds of tests, which means you will definitely occupy three of the 30 places." Zi Chao stretched out three fingers and waved them in front of Zi Mu and the other two, "I hope you can do your best to take three of the 3 places!"

The third round of the test is a battle between the elites among the 40 elites. Each person will play 39 games against 3 other random people. The victory or defeat does not matter. The invigilator will directly select 10 people to enter the ace class.

This also prevented Zi Mu and the other two from having to face a choice between two options due to internal strife. If they wanted to be selected given their strength, they would have a chance.

"I think it's okay," Zi Mu grinned and spoke first.

If they want all three of them to enter the ace class, they still need a lot of luck. However, it seems that since he crossed over to this world, his luck has always been good...
