The Almighty Dragon General

“For our assessment, participants are allowed to form teams and work together to solve the different tests and challenges.
However, if any of your team members were eliminated at any point during the assessment, that member will instantly be
disqualified from joining the Academy.
‘The assessment will be conducted in a special realm that we have prepared in advance.”
“At the beginning of our assessment, participants will face three tests. Those who pass all three tests will be accepted as the
Dieux Academy’s low-ranking disciples. After that, participants who make it through the next three consecutive tests will be
recognized as our regular members. Last but not least, those who complete up to the ninth test will qualify to join the Dieux
Academy as our elite members.
‘There are a total of nine tests.
“However, those nine tests are merely a small part of our assessment. To be exact, the real assessment begins after you
complete the nine tests.
“After completing the nine tests, participants will transfer to the Zeilor Arena and enter the Zeilor Battle to fight for the limited
spots there. The team that lasts till the very end of the battle will win first place in our assessment. I’m sure all of you are already
aware of the advantage that comes with that spot.”
James and the other cultivators listened to Xhemal intently as he briefly explained the rules of the assessment.
King Marciais looked at the others and grinned. “Do you guys think you can pass the nine tests?”
James said, “We have no idea what those nine tests are. Nevertheless, we can qualify to join the Dieux Academy as long as we
pass the first three tests. Even if we only make it to become low-ranking disciples, that still makes us members of the academy.”
Gaius asked, ‘There’s no limit to how many people they can have in a team. Wouldn’t some of the teams gather all of the
competent cultivators from their entire plane to join the assessment then?”
James nodded. ‘That is very likely to happen. Normally, those from the major planes would split into several teams according to
the different forces or organizations they belong to. On the contrary, the smaller planes would opt to band together and gather as
many of their best men as possible to participate in the assessment.”
King Marciais was getting more and more excited as he listened to them.

“This is such an amazing event! We have cultivators from thousands of planes gathered here for the assessment. I can’t wait for
us to enter the realm and show the others what we’ve got! I hope we’ll be able to land one of the top spots by the end of the
assessment.”
“Ladies and gentlemen, we are about to unlock the entrance to the special realm. Those who wish to participate in the
assessment may enter the realm now.”
As Xhemal’s voice reverberated across the space, a gigantic image appeared right above the planet where the Dieux Academy
was located.
The cultivators could see vast, green landscapes shown in the image.
As soon as the announcement was made, some of the cultivators waiting on the
Dieux Academy’s planet shot up into the sky and entered the realm right away.
Gradually, cultivators waiting on the neighboring planets also traveled toward the image to enter the realm.
It was quite an impressive sight as clusters of cultivators all headed in the direction of the realm.
King Marciais sighed in awe. ‘The number of cultivators who are participating have probably exceeded the trillions.”
James smiled faintly. “Most of them will be eliminated soon. I assure you close to ninety-nine percent of the total participants will
be forced to drop out during the first three tests.”
“Let’s go,” Taran urged them.
He rose into the air and began flying in the direction where the Dieux Academy’s planet was. James and the others quickly
followed behind him.
As the group of them finally entered the realm, James and the others realized they had arrived at a strange, mysterious space.
Nothing could be found in that space except for the other cultivators who had entered before them.
On the side of the wall furthest away from James, everyone could see that the wall was glowing faintly. It looked almost ethereal.
Upon a closer look, the wall was formed from countless unique inscriptions.

Several disciples of the Dieux Academy levitated in mid-air above that wall of light. All of them were wearing similar white robes
that had the word “Dieux” embroidered on them.
Just then, one of the disciples took a step forward and announced, ‘The first test is very simple. Those of you who can make it
past this wall of light will qualify for the next test.”
