Chapter 72 - Life and Death is Your Own Responsibility (2/2)

Upon hearing Ling Yichen’s words, Ling Chuxi lowered her head and remained silent for some time. When she raised her head again, her gaze was sharpened by determination.

Indeed, that’s how things were here. Only the strong are respected!

…

It was only during the training three days later that all newly accepted students realized they were facing White Stone Academy’s real admissions test. The ones who were able to persevere through the training would be truly accepted students of White Stone Academy!

This time, the training was held at the White Stone Canyon ten miles from White Stone City.

Ling Chuxi and Ling Yichen stood together in a group of two. What surprised Ling Chuxi was that all partic.i.p.ating students were required to sign a death indemnity. The terms listed in the indemnity were easy enough to understand—partic.i.p.ation in the training was deemed voluntary and that one would be held responsible for one’s own life and death!

That clause alone had scared off quite a number of new students. Many thought pa.s.sing the innate talent a.s.sessment and entrance examination meant they had nothing more to worry about. Never did they think the real examination came after and that it would be so dangerous! However, Ling Chuxi saw it differently. She admired White Stone Academy for organizing such a training because it tested the valor and tenacity of students. One would not make it far along the road of cultivation without possessing such qualities.

Those who refused to sign the death indemnity would have no place as students at White Stone Academy.

Ling Chuxi and Ling Yichen signed the death indemnity without a word. When they looked around, they saw that some of the students around them were afraid to sign and withdrew their partic.i.p.ation instead. Aside from the few dropouts, there were still many students who were willing to sign and partic.i.p.ate.

The teacher in charge of the training this time was the academy’s vice princ.i.p.al. He took a look at the number of students who decided to partic.i.p.ate and nodded his head in satisfaction. The turnout was rather large this year. Hopefully, many of them would pa.s.s the training and be able to properly enroll at White Stone Academy.

In order to pa.s.s the training, students just had to meet one requirement—they had to pa.s.s through White Stone Canyon and reach the other side of it within seven days and nights.
