It took a day, and the thick-backed eagle finally arrived at the boundary of Pengcheng.
This is a huge square city. The first thing that catches the eye is the tall and thick city wall. The height of the city wall is about 20 meters. It is all made of huge stones and filled with sticky glutinous rice juice.
"so big!"
Li Changsheng was shocked. Pengcheng was worthy of being the state government, and it was the largest city he had ever seen. Compared with Pengcheng, the cities he had seen before paled in comparison.
Pengcheng is very large, as the seat of Yuanzhou, its area is the largest among other cities in Yuanzhou, and it is second only to Yecheng, the capital of Langya Kingdom!
The attraction of the prefectural office is already very strong, especially since Pengcheng is located on a major traffic road, surrounded by abundant resources, attracting a large number of foreign population and businessmen. Since Pengcheng became the prefectural office, it has been expanded twice in a hundred years.
However, the thick-backed eagle did not fly to Pengcheng, but to the buildings on the outskirts of Pengcheng, which was their destination.
"landing!"
Soon, following the order of the clan elder, the three thick-backed eagles began to circle and land, and landed on a relatively flat land.
A radius of tens of miles is the site of Yuanling Academy, which is almost equivalent to half of Luo City. Naturally, Pengcheng cannot accommodate such a large area, so it can only be built in the suburbs of Pengcheng.
In Pengcheng's plan, Yuanling Academy and the surrounding areas are collectively referred to as the Academy District, where more than a dozen schools of controlling demon masters, large and small, are concentrated.
However, it is not so much a school district as it is a city. Except for the lack of city walls, its area is almost no less than that of an ordinary city.
In terms of scale, they are all schools. Although they are 'neighbors' to Yuanling Academy, these schools are far from Yuanling Academy in terms of teachers, history and scale, and they cannot threaten the dominance of Yuanling Academy at all.
As one of the top schools, Yuanling Academy is naturally very impressive. It was the first time for Li Changsheng and others to see Yuanling Academy, and before entering it, their hearts were full of shock.
Of course there are schools in Los Angeles, but they are so small that even the Li family doesn't like them.
Compared with Yuanling Academy, Los Angeles Academy is several grades lower. From the appearance alone, there is an essential gap between the two.
The entrance of Yuanling Academy has a width of 100 meters and is curved. The whole body is made of white marble, like an extremely huge arch.
In the center of the arch, engraved with four large characters - Yuanling Academy!
Looking at this huge arch, Li Changsheng and others seemed to have come to the kingdom of giants, and they unconsciously felt a sense of insignificance.
Just from the gate, you can see the background of Yuanling Academy!
As one of the four universities, Yuanling Academy has a very long history, comparable to the time of the founding of the country. Every year, Yuanling Academy absorbs a large number of talented students and mentors. After so many years of accumulation, the background can be imagined.
Just when Li Changsheng and the others were stunned, the clan leader who led the team suddenly said: "Are you shocked? When I saw Yuanling Academy for the first time, I was just like you, not much better than you! Well, it's time for the four of you to go in. I hope to hear good news from you when we meet again!"
The number of places recommended by Yuanling Academy does not mean that you can become a student of Yuanling Academy immediately. If you want to become a student of Yuanling Academy, you must pass the assessment.
From a common sense, most of the demon masters who can get the recommended places from Yuanling Academy are of good strength. Even so, there are often only a very few who can pass the assessment.
After showing the recommended quota of Yuanling Academy, the four of Li Changsheng entered the academy smoothly.
First of all, there are more than a dozen gilt statues that catch the eye. The smallest one is several feet high, and the largest is even tens of feet high. Under the sunlight, it reflects dazzling light.
On the stone bases at the bottom of these gilt statues, lines of characters are engraved, all praising their great achievements.
Including the principal, mentors and even students, only those who have made great contributions to the school will be erected statues for them, which is also the highest honor of Yuanling Academy.
Li Changsheng looked up at the largest gold-plated statue, which was right in the middle. This was the first principal who founded Yuanling Academy, and he was also one of the strongest demon masters in Langya Kingdom. It was under his leadership that Yuanling Academy became a top-level institution.
"In the future, maybe I can also occupy a place here!" Li Changsheng thought to himself, in fact, it is not just him, many people have the same idea.
To be erected by the Yuanling Academy is definitely the highest honor for high-level officials, mentors and students, and many people even take this as their lifelong goal.
The four of Li Changsheng didn't stay long, they passed the gilded statue, and there was a huge fountain pool, with countless water splashes, and for some unknown reason, a rainbow formed above the fountain pool.
Whether it's the arches, statues or fountains, there is a big character prominently, this is also Li Changsheng's first impression of Yuanling Academy!
In such a world of goblins full of energy, even if the construction industry is not well developed, many goblins have 'construction expertise', such as the goblins of the earth type. They can tamp the foundation, condense earth and rocks, and turn mud into stone. As long as a large number of goblins of the earth type are mobilized, the construction of buildings can be made quickly.
Behind the fountain pool is an extremely wide avenue, enough for dozens of carriages to drive side by side, still embodying a big character.
In addition, there are more than ten "trails" extending in all directions, and these "trails" are also more than ten meters wide. The so-called small is only relative to the avenue.
Under the planning of these roads, Yuanling Academy is roughly divided into eight areas.
The east is the teaching area, the south is the administrative area, the west is the commercial area, the north is the cemetery, the southeast is the student living area, the northeast is the tutor living area, the southwest is the storage area, and the northwest is the market area.
Of course, these are only approximate distributions, and there are some sub-districts in each large area. In short, this is a place that is enough to make people dizzy.
Among them, the assessment is held in the teaching area.
When they went to the teaching area, they would occasionally see some students and instructors, and of course more of them were young demon masters who were preparing to take the assessment like them.
It took a full half an hour, and the four masters of the Li family finally arrived at the place where the assessment was held. This is a building built on the side of a mountain.
To some extent, this is indeed the Colosseum.
Before participating in the assessment, registration is required. The person in charge of the registration is a female tutor with a baby face. She has a friendly smile on her face, and two dimples can be seen faintly, giving people a feeling of harmlessness to humans and animals.
However, there was a powerful coercion exuding from her body, which made Li Changsheng and others not dare to underestimate her.
This coercion is not inferior to Li Wenbo, the patriarch of the Li clan.
The strength of this mentor may have reached the level of a fourth-order demon master. And this kind of strength is just an ordinary tutor who is responsible for registration at Yuanling Academy.
In other words, the patriarch of the dignified Li family is at best the level of an ordinary tutor in Yuanling Academy.
"It's recommended quota again!" When the four of Li Changsheng presented their tokens, the baby-faced mentor stroked his hair lightly, with a slightly helpless expression.
To put it simply, as long as you spend enough resources, you can get recommended places from Yuanling Academy, which is also one of the ways for Yuanling Academy and other institutions to obtain resources.
Of course, the recommended quota is also beneficial, that is, it saves a lot of screening.
Every year, Yuanling Academy conducts auditions across the country. As one of the four universities in Langya Country, each enrollment can always attract countless talented demon masters, but there are often only a very small number of talented demon masters who want to pass the audition and go to Yuanling Academy to participate in the assessment.
Among them, the recommendation quota saves the step of audition.
Originally, with Li Changsheng's potential, he had a high probability of passing the audition, but unfortunately, before he became a demon master, the audition for Yuanling Academy had already ended, and he could only fight for the recommendation quota of his family.
As for the other three members of the Li Family Four, only Li Runfeng had participated in the audition, but unfortunately he was eliminated, so he had no choice but to make a recommendation.
As for Li Tianyu and Li Jingyi, at that time they were determined to win the recommended places in the ethnic competition, so naturally they didn't waste time to participate in the audition.
"Come with me!" After registration, the baby-faced instructor led several people into the Colosseum.
In the Colosseum, dozens of people had already gathered, most of them were talented demon masters who had passed the audition, and only a small number of them, like Li Changsheng, had the recommendation places from Yuanling Academy.
"The first assessment will not start until the number of people reaches one hundred!" After explaining, the baby-faced tutor chose to leave.
