Hu Yang Academy is an academy founded by the Rain Country imperial family. Hu Yang Academy was an academy under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Dynasty of the Rain Country, possessing uncountable resources. If they decided to put all effort into training him, even the worst kind of trash would be able to reach Element Gathering.[1]
Hu Yang Academy was actually divided into two departments, the Martial Arts Department and Alchemy Department. However, because there were indeed too few alchemists, when people talked about the Hu Yang Academy, they were actually referring to the Martial Arts Department.[2]
Organizational Structure[]
Disciple's Level[]
In Hu Yang Academy, students are separated into three categories: Ordinary Disciple, True Disciple, and Core Disciple. Ordinary Disciple is quite simple. One will be considered one from the moment you enter the Academy. The number of True Disciples was much smaller, only thirty in total. In terms of cultivation resources, they could obtain ten times the amount of resources available to Ordinary Disciples, so they became targets of jealousy for Ordinary Disciples. There are two conditions to become a True Disciple. Firstly, one had to be at least at the Element Gathering Realm, and secondly, one had to be among the thirty strongest disciples in the Academy. As a result, competition has become very tight.[3]
Above True Disciples, there were three Core Disciples. The Core Disciples were people the Academy would put its full efforts into developing because they were the strongest among the younger generation of Rain Country. They represented the future level of martial arts of the entire Rain Country, and were the face of the entire nation. To become a Core Disciple, the progress of Gushing Spring Tier was necessary. A few hundred years ago, one of the strongest ever Core Disciples had even reached Spiritual Ocean Tier. However, upon reaching thirty years old, everyone would have to leave the Academy, because thirty years old was considered the age of maturity, and anyone above this age would be considered a full adult.[4]
Discipline Committee[]
The Discipline Committee, as the name suggests, was an organization that was in charge of enforcing the rules and regulations of the Academy. However, the majority of the members of this committee were students, and it could also be considered as a type of part-time job, for the members could earn academic points. Moreover, the members also possessed a considerable amount of power in the Academy, so quite a lot of students desperately thought up ways to squeeze themselves into the Committee.[5]
Achievements[]
Within the Hu Yang Academy, academic points could be exchanged for a multitude of various items: cultivation techniques, martial arts techniques, alchemical pills, as well as various natural treasures. But it was very difficult to obtain academic points.[2]
