The Spring Examination Competition is held every nine years, and it has a history of hundreds of years.

It is the most important event in the practice world of the Dajin Dynasty.

The number of participants in each spring exam has grown from 21 to 36 at the beginning, and to this day, it has expanded to a total of 64.

Sixteen people were selected to participate in the battle from the Spring and Autumn Academy, Tianxing Academy, and the Imperial Academy.

In addition, there are sixteen places for all nine major families and seventy-two sects.

From the perspective of the competition system, the spring exam is divided into individual battles and team battles, both of which are in a point system. For example, the top scorer in individual battles can get fifteen points, and the first in team battles can also earn fifteen points.

The two are summed up and the academies, sects, or families with the highest points are the final leader of this year's spring exam.

The first thing to start is personal battles.

Among them, it is divided into the first round of melee, position battle, and the final championship battle.

The rules for the first round of melee are very simple. Four sub-fighting platforms will be opened in the field later. Each battle platform can accommodate sixteen people, and the last four people can advance to the next round.

In principle, each academy cannot have more than four candidates on each battlefield.

Or to put it simply, the three major academies need to divide each of the sixteen participants into four groups, each with four people, and board the same battle platform.

From a certain perspective, this is actually equivalent to a small team battle.

This has a great test for the tactical arrangement and group selection of team leaders of each academies.

It is precisely because of this competition system that many classic tactical ideas that have been talked about by the world in the past spring examinations have been born.

First of all, from the perspective of grouping, you can adopt equal distribution, that is, a group with a strong and profound senior brother or sister, and then paired with three new disciples, or students with slightly inferior strength, in order to equalize the strength of everyone.

You can also join forces to form a team of four strongest people in the academy to ensure that they advance to the position. As for other groups, they should be as good as possible within their own strength. Just cause some trouble for other students to advance. If you can drag an opponent from another academy, it would be better if you can go into the water with strong masters.

Secondly, in terms of actual combat, you can also choose the tactic of three to one, which is to give the fourth person a chance to advance at all costs in the four-person group on the battlefield.

You can also form an alliance with people from another academies or sects in the beginning in a weak manner to compete for a greater chance of promotion.

In short, this round of melee has many strategic choices for tactics and arrangement methods, and especially the test of the on-the-scene deployment ability of the leaders of the three major academies.

Before today, Zheng Rong and Zheng Zhishu of Chunqiu Academy had already made very sufficient preparations.

Because the academy lacked the most critical soul, Pei Yuanji, from the beginning, Master Zheng held a relatively low attitude and had no ambitions for the championship. He just hoped that the final results would not be too bad.

So the grouping strategy he chose is a strong alliance!

The academy enrolls students once every three years, and each student can only stay in the academy for nine years, which means three sessions. On the list of the spring exam, it happens to be the three sessions of the academy, with five quotas for new and old students.

This also means that there are at least three students in the array who won the college entrance examination that year!

Although Pei Yuanji has died, among the old students of the same class, there is a senior brother who was defeated by him at that time.

In Zheng Zhi’s initial plan, he was to form the most powerful group of Chunqiu Academy and strive to win a complete victory on a competition platform!

An old student who has been studying in the Chunqiu Academy for a full six years and is second only to Pei Yuanji's strength, a genius boy who won the top recruitment list three years ago, and Jiang Qiqi.

Of course, Jiang Qiqi is one of them, but now his whereabouts are unknown. Until the moment Zheng Zhi submitted the final list of participating in the battle, he was unable to arrive at the scene of the Spring Examination Competition.

From a certain perspective, Zheng Zhixi is not only the leader of the spring exam this time, but also the senior brother of all of them.

Why did the academy finally appointed him as the leader of this spring exam?

Because he was also the top spot in the academy recruitment nine years ago!

However, before Jiang Qiqi, Mo Yuan, Chen Hui and others were admitted to Chunqiu Academy, their oldest group of students had already graduated from the academy.

Some chose to continue to work in the academy, such as Zheng Zhi, and some joined the Dajin military or served for major families and sects.

Nine years ago, Zheng Rong participated in the last spring exam, and was also an important contributor to the Spring and Autumn Academy's top spot.

Now, he has become the leader of the spring exam of the academy.

Therefore, the last candidate in the strongest group is himself!

Of course, the leader of the academy can participate in the competition, as long as he is not over 30 years old.

And Zheng Zhixi is just 29 years old this year!

In the past spring exam competition, there are not many examples of the leaders of the academy winning the top spot in the personal battle list, but it is not absolute. After all, there are talents in the world and the three-year practice time gap is really nothing if the practitioners have hundreds of years of time.

Just like this time, even though the three major academies each had team leaders, the top candidate in people's minds was still between Murong Wangui and His Highness Ning.

If Pei Yuanji is still alive, of course he will have a place.

But now, what is left for Zheng to teach is a huge problem.

Because not only did Pei Yuanji disappear in the academy, Lian Jiang Qiqi has not bid farewell without saying goodbye!

In desperation, Zheng Rong could only add a candidate to the list of participating in the battle at the last moment. This person was also an old student from the same class as Pei Yuanji. He also stayed in the academy for six years. In terms of strength, he was not that bad, but for some reason, he invisibly put a shadow on Zheng Rong's heart.

It’s not good to go out!

Zheng Rong's deployment was of course accompanied by some gambling elements, because he was equivalent to giving up the other twelve academy disciples.

If everything goes well in their group, they can at least occupy four places on the top 16.

But if they were careless and the whole army was wiped out...

Then, this Spring and Autumn Academy will be over!

Think about the peak of the Spring and Autumn Academy, when it was at its peak, it once advanced to eight students in the first round of melee, occupying half of the subsequent battle for the position. How domineering!

But now, it is really sad that we can only adopt such radical tactics.

The root of this is just because they lack one Pei Yuanji?

Of course not.

But because they made too many sacrifices to defend their country and foreign enemies...
