Chapter 43: Reporting to the Ancient Capital Academy

 "You again?"

  Zhang Chenran couldn't help but wonder. His attention was all on the demons before.

  But he ignored the twenty or so Shadow Clan soldiers awakened by the spirit.

  Manjusaka explained to him briefly.

  "They are dark creatures of the Shadow Clan, just like you." Zhang Chenran nodded slightly.

  The residual soul can make the demons fight for themselves, and the spirit can awaken the soldiers of the Shadow Clan!

  More than twenty dark executioners of the Shadow Clan bowed their heads to him in respect!

  Then they slowly flew back to the shadow.

  The Shadow Clan does not belong to this plane. They are not demons. To be precise, they are dark creatures! Zhang

  Chenran has seen the horror of darkness. After all, this has always been his greatest killing weapon!

  Now it seems that his powerful shadow attack method is very similar to the dark creatures of the Shadow Clan, but he has a more comprehensive grasp of it.

  This seems to be the reason why he can sign a contract with Manjusaka, a member of the Shadow Clan royal family.

  "You are only at the slave level, how can you improve your cultivation?" Zhang Chenran couldn't help but wonder.

  Although the dark decay released by Manjusaka is very strong, her current aura is only at the slave level.

  And it is the weakest of the slave level.

  Manjusaka also gave an explanation for this.

  "Will it improve along with my summoning cultivation? What the hell is the summoning system I awakened?"

  Zhang Chenran didn't react much to this explanation. After all, the previous scene was shocking enough.

  Manjusaka's special contract that improves with the level is a bit useless compared to the Shadow Legion.

  I now have four systems, and the curse system and summoning system must not be exposed. Boss Zhankong blocked my information in Bo City. If I want to apply for the special recruitment of the school, I can only choose between the space system and the shadow system.

  After a brief thought, Zhang Chenran decided to apply for the special recruitment of the shadow system.

  The space system he can control now can only play a supporting role in control and defense.

  And the shadow system has always been his main means of attack, so it is most suitable to apply for the special recruitment with this system.

  ...…

  The next day.

  Special recruitment assessment of the Ancient Capital Academy.

  "Student Zhang Chenran, although you are from Bo City, we will not lower the special recruitment standards for you because of this." One of the examiners present said.

  Bo City has experienced a huge disaster, which is known to the whole country.

  The country also treats students from Bo City well, but the special recruitment of the academy will not lower the standards because of this.

  Zhang Chenran nodded slightly: "I understand."

  "Which department do you choose to apply for?" the examiner asked.

  "Shadow Department!"

  "Oh? Shadow Department?" Another middle-aged examiner suddenly became interested.

  Zhang Chenran looked over and felt the same dark aura on this examiner.

  This examiner should also practice black magic, or also practice the shadow department.

  "But even the elementary level 3 shadow department is inferior to the summoning department. If it is the elementary level 3 curse department, it may be possible." The examiner did not continue.

  "Haha, Teacher Li, you know the situation in Bocheng. The fact that this student can apply for the special recruitment fully demonstrates his excellence. I think all he needs is an opportunity." The middle-aged examiner who practices the shadow system said.

  The implication was that he wanted to give the special recruitment quota to Zhang Chenran.

  "Teacher, I'm a mid-level one." Zhang Chenran couldn't help but say.

  The mid-level examiners looked at each other in bewilderment.

  The special recruitment standard for special departments other than the elemental magic department is the elementary level three.

  In addition, the previous special recruitment candidates were all at the elementary level three, so these examiners subconsciously thought that Zhang Chenran was also an elementary level three shadow mage.     "Intermediate?" The middle-aged examiner who practiced the shadow system suddenly had a bright look in his eyes and asked:

  "Can you release the giant shadow nail?"

  As soon as the middle-aged examiner finished speaking, a giant shadow nail fell from the sky and hovered behind several examiners.

  The examiners were stunned and looked back fiercely.

  The giant shadow nail seemed to appear there in an instant without any signs.

  The giant shadow nail just stayed there quietly and did not pierce the shadow, which surprised the examiners.

  "I'm afraid that the speed of completing magic has surpassed most of the students in the academy?"

  "Silently, without a trace, this student has a strong control over the shadow system!"

  Several examiners obviously did not blame Zhang Chenran for his "offense", but were more appreciative and concerned about him.

  "This giant shadow nail is different from the ordinary giant shadow nail. It seems to be accompanied by other dark substances. It seems that this student seems to have some special opportunities!" The middle-aged examiner who practiced the shadow system murmured, and then said:

  "Dear teachers, this student has far exceeded the special recruitment assessment standards. Can he be directly admitted to our shadow department?"

  The examiners looked at each other and smiled bitterly. What else can they say when the intermediate magic has been released?

  The students of the shadow department of the Ancient Capital Academy are the rarest in the academy. Even the number of students in the Dimension Summoning Department is more than that of the students of the shadow department.

  The shadow department does not have any direct means to deal with the undead.

  Even if there is, many students majoring in the shadow department will basically not apply to the Ancient Capital Academy.

  The light department, which is called the initial waste department, has become the most popular magic department in the ancient capital.

  "Student Zhang Chenran, congratulations on passing the special recruitment test perfectly! From today on, you are a student of the shadow department of our Ancient Capital Academy." The examiner smiled.

  After completing all the admission procedures, Zhang Chenran was not in a hurry to leave the academy, but instead took a brief look at the academy.

  There were still two months before the start of school, and he could practice the summoning and curse systems in these two months.

  The spiritual power of the mage who had mastered the nebula had already soared to another level.

  It was easy to practice the newly awakened magic stardust again, and the improvement would be much faster

  . In addition,

  Zhang Chenran had previously learned from the information that the ancient capital mage had always been killing undead as his main task.

  Unexpectedly, the competition method of the ancient capital academy was also to hunt undead.

  The ancient capital academy was different from other academies, and there was no such thing as a green campus and a main campus.

  The lowest normal admission standard of the ancient capital academy was the third level of the elementary level.

  Mages at this level basically had the ability to hunt undead.

  Therefore, the academy ranked students by hunting undead to obtain credits.

  The higher the ranking, the more resources you can get.

  Even the training quota of the holy land of cultivation, Yanta, was included in the rewards of the ranking.

  Of course, considering those beginner students who have not broken through to the intermediate level, the school has specially made two rankings.

  The beginner credit list and the intermediate credit list!

  The resources of the former are mainly important resources for breaking through the intermediate level, while the resources of the latter are those that can only be accessed in the intermediate field.

  Zhang Chenran registered for admission as an intermediate mage.

  Even if he has just entered the school, he will be directly ranked on the intermediate credit list.

  Here, there is no such thing as new and old students.

  The more undead you hunt, the more contributions you make to the ancient capital, and the more resources the school will give you.

  The rules are fair to everyone.

  As for whether you are willing to fight for it, it is the student's own problem.
