1975 White
The test of Gambler's academy is unique compared to the Olympian academies.
One reason is that there is actually no upperlimit to the number of people accepted into this place. If all the candidates pass the test, then they can get into the academy as the freshmen. But the problem is even with that open ended entry, the number of students that get into gambler's academy is actually less than most of the Olympian academies.
That is because of the uniqueness of the testing procedure.
And in this the seniors are more hands on because they are the conductors of the test.
The rules are simple.
The candidate for the exam has to pick of the senior students. Whoever it is, as long as they are part of the gambler's academy and they are of at least middle stage Divine Plane cultivators, then they can be chosen.
The senior doesn't have any other choice but to accept.
Once they chose their senior, the candidate challenges them to a duel and they have to last for almost fifteen minutes in a fight. That would give them a pass.
Just pure survival within the large battlefield that is up to their choice is enough to guarantee the admission.
Of course, that is not all and there is more.
If the candidates give the seniors a hard time, landing a couple of hits, dealing some blows, making them fall into traps and having the most easier time one could think of, then they will get more points and that will decide the ranking.
If they beat the senior that will land them probably in the top ten and based on how easily they did it, they would be placed higher.
And of course there are some unique candidates who added some amazing clauses to increase their own difficulty over the years and set some new records for the freshmen test.
In such a unique setting, Pearl is really interested in seeing what Sam is about to do.
But to her surprise, Sam is nowhere to be seen.
Even when the candidates already started taking the challenges, Sam didn't arrive and soon the time set for the reporting was over.
Sam is officially out of the test.
Pearl was disappointed and she wanted to leave.
She turned to Rain and his lackeys and stated her opinion.
"This is a waste of time. I want to leave."
Rain had an awkward expression and said.

own difficulty over the years and set some new records for the freshmen test.
"This is a waste of time. I want to leave."
In such a unique setting, Pearl is really interested in seeing what Sam is about to do.
Rain had an awkward expression and said.
"But Junior sister, we accepted a responsibility under your name, you need to be the final decision maker in this, otherwise we will get in trouble with the elders."
Pearl clenched her fists and sat down begrudgingly.
The responsibility they are talking about is trying to scout any suitable candidates within the test.
Yes, apart from the special admissions by recommendations like Pearl, and admission test, there is one final recruitment the Olympian academies do.
And that is scouting from the Gambler's academy.
This is done in an underhanded way. They will spot some promising candidates who show great combat ability and then shortlist a few.
Later on, they will try to poach them with some benefits.
This is to ensure two things.
First one is that, they might have missed this promising candidates in their exams by accident. After all, not all the people who ranked in those tests are the best there is. People like Sam appear and eliminate a perfectly good candidate in early stages. They want to do some recovery based on that.
The second reason is even simpler, they want to take away any good seedlings from the Gambler's academy.
This started a few years after the academy Gambler's academy started. Since it is a new one, not many people joined. Only mediocre ones did. But those mediocre ones turned out to be pretty powerful. If not for the Gambler's academy not doing well in growing them in large quantity along with their very low entry, it wouldn't have ranked lower than the Olympian academy in the ranks.
And of course, they knew that if a really good seedling falls under the Gambler's academy, they will definitely surpass the Olympian academies with no trouble whatsoever.
So, when Pearl said she will poach Sam if he enters the Gambler's academy, the elders who usually give this task to the seniors, gave it to pearl and her new lackeys.
After this is done, they are going to get a lot of credits for a freshmen which are basically converted to gold coins making them rich.
For freshmen, this amount of credits is larger than they could afford.
Except for Pearl of course. She didn't care much about it and that is why she is disgruntled about staying here for longer time.
As he tried to at least get entertained from the fights at least, she felt a bit disappointed. These candidates are good, but they are at most mediocre. Even with this academy's amplification, there is not much they could do in the next few years.
They cannot compete with the cream of the crop of the Olympian academies.
She wanted to find an excuse to leave this place, but then she saw someone very eyecatching walking up to the seniors. It is a young man, who wore complete white. But his attire is different. It is very close to what Sam was wearing, but instead this guy's long coat is white. His inner shirt is white, his pants are white, he wore gloves that are white, his boots are white and he had a white mask.
The mask has slit like eye openings and a smile moulded into it.
On top of his laid a top hat that is also white.
And he held a black cane in his hands as he walked to the seniors.
Not just pearl, everyone is kind of stuck by his weird outfit. It is not every day such an eyecatching guy walks around in the academic realm.
The man didn't speak anything and pointed his cane at the one sitting on the forefront of the seniors. The strongest of them all.
The senior was dumbfounded. Every year, there is always one thing in common. The top of the seniors was never challenged.
"You must be very brave and confident in your strength or you must be very stupid to challenge me."
The senior spoke calmly.
"Or you might just be an easy target."
The man in white retorted.
The senior raised an eyebrow in amusement. He is not feeling insulted and he didn't take this as a wrong thing.
is way too hard for me to go easy on you with such a small space."
10:59
He spun the dagger a bit and looked at White with a smirk.
He is very much amused and interested in the competence of this guy who just came out of nowhere.
"Fifteen minutes. Survive and you win. My name is crow by the way. What is your name?"
"You can call me White."
"Sure. Pick an arena. I suggest you pick a large one, we can wait if they are not available at the moment."
"No need. A simple stage will suffice."
White pointed at the stage that no one has taken until now. It is clean and pristine.
And obviously the reason is, the stage is too small for the candidates to dodge from their seniors' attacks. It is not going to be easy for them to hold themselves in the best condition.
White climbed on the stage and gracefully gestured for the senior to come too.
Crow got on to the stage with a jump.
"You know, you made a really big mistake."
"Choosing you?"
"No, that just shows your ambition it is fine. Your biggest mistake is choosing this stage."
"And why would that be? Care to explain?"
Crow stretched a bit and stepped forward.
The next moment, he flashed like a shadow and appeared right before White and slammed a dagger towards him.
White reacted quickly and barely managed to dodge the tip of the dagger.
"If we have a bigger space, when I go easy on you, you could have had a chance to pass it. But now, it is way too hard for me to go easy on you with such a small space."
He spun the dagger a bit and looked at White with a smirk.
White arranged his cuffs a bit and then adjusted a slight wrinkle on his coat.
"You are so sure of yourself. You must be confident. I like it when opponents are confident."
Crow didn't reply and made another move. But this time, White followed his speed clearly. He is indeed very fast and there is a certain lethality to it, because even at that speed he didn't have any kind of openings.
And this time White didn't dodge, instead he tapped his cane on the ground very lightly. A wave of energy swept through the stage and the origin of it is the point of contact of the cane.
The wave swept over Crow and all of a sudden, he felt like the surroundings turned to some thick liquid. His speed lessened for a swift second without his will.
