The triennial Mountain River List ranking competition had finally begun, and the entire Azure Dragon Academy buzzed with unprecedented excitement.
The Mountain River List ranking competition adopted two methods.
The first method was a single round-robin elimination system.
Since the Azure Dragon Academy had over a hundred thousand students, there were too many participants, while the Mountain River List had only "three hundred seats."
Therefore, only those students who had accumulated "a thousand points" were qualified to challenge the "older students" on the Mountain River List.
Defeating an opponent would add five points to one's score.
In addition, students on the Mountain River List could also challenge those ranked above them; if they could defeat their opponents, they would take over their rank, while the defeated would automatically fall one rank back.
Generally, one would only issue a challenge if one had great confidence in oneself.
