Yuanjing died in a zombie siege during the apocalypse. To gain a chance at rebirth and rewrite his life,
Yuanjing agreed when the demon—oh, no, the system—offered him the opportunity.
...Chapter 681
The Seven Schools League is a grand event on the magical continent. It is jointly organized by the Magicians' Guild and the Church of Light. The venue is the Holy City of Light, which is also the headquarters of the Church of Light.
The Church of Light occupies an extremely important position in this world, not only because the Church of Light is spread all over the world, but also because in the underdeveloped medical industry, everyone from high-ranking officials to ordinary people cannot do without the light magicians' light healing magic, and light magic is the most important nemesis of dark creatures. Therefore, to this day, the God of Light is still the god that many people believe in.
Yuan Jing could not understand the belief and situation of pinning everything on a god. Not to mention whether this god still existed in this world, even if the God of Light still existed, could the God of Light really manage all the prayers and wishes of countless believers? It is better to believe in yourself than to believe in gods.
The desolate village where the original body once lived was clearly the one most looking forward to the coming of God to free them from fear and despair. However, there was not a single believer in God's religion in that place. The people who could not leave that place could only wait in despair to become the prey of dark creatures one day. Perhaps death would be a relief at that time.
The people there also have no faith, because the gods will never save them because of their prayers. They live in fear and hatred, and their minds will become twisted and perverted in the long run.
Yuan Jing and Yan Yuansen stepped into the Holy City of Light together. From a distance they could see the building of the Church of Light on the top of the mountain. It was magnificent and solemn, which made people feel respect when seeing it from afar. Of course, such a thing did not exist for them.
Yuan Jing transmitted his voice, "The Church also sent people to chase after the black dragon. The Holy Son and Holy Daughter of Light were dispatched. I also heard that Leo and the Holy Daughter of Light left alone for a while. Do you think Leo would have captured the Holy Daughter of Light a long time ago?"
"By the way, do you think the heroine Gong Wen will also appear this time? I think she must be very interested in the Son of Light. Oh, and she is also interested in you, no matter your identity as a black dragon or your human form."
Yan Yuansen pinched Yuan Jing's palm. Being targeted by that woman, whether in black dragon or human form, was it a pleasant thing for him? "If she shows up, will the vampire follow? It must be very interesting for a vampire to run to the territory of the Church of Light. If it gets mixed up with the Son of God, it will be even more exciting."
Yuan Jing's eyes instantly became shiny, and the word "do" was written on his left cheek, and "things" was written on his right cheek. Putting them together meant "do something". How could he not make the most of an opportunity that was delivered to his doorstep? You must know that the Son of God and the Holy Daughter of Light serve the God of Light, so they must maintain absolute holiness and cannot be defiled by anyone. But this time, the Son of God and the Holy Daughter might have already been defiled. How could the Pope of Light still sit on his throne?
The corners of Yan Yuansen's mouth curled up. Black Dragon was also very vengeful. If it weren't for him and Yuan Jing's clever methods, there was no telling what situation Black Dragon would have fallen into.
Walking in the city with everyone, I have to admit that the prosperity of the Holy City of Light is even slightly inferior to that of Deya City. It seems to be the center of the entire magical world. From time to time, clergymen walk by, and knights of light riding Asian dragons pass by.
Yuan Jing admitted that when it came to showing off, no one in the world could compare to the clergy and knights of the Church of Light. They seemed to have a halo effect that made it easy for ordinary people to be bewitched and offer their beliefs from the bottom of their hearts.
Li Yaqi introduced on the sidelines: "Our Deya Magic Academy has lost to the Holy Light Magic Academy for several consecutive leagues and ranked second. The Wind God Magic Academy and Fanar Magic Academy regard us as opponents and try their best to catch up. These two schools privately prepare secret weapons to deal with us Deya. Sometimes it is inevitable that we suffer losses. I don’t know what means they have prepared this year."
"The opponents that we in Germany need to pay attention to are these three schools. If possible, we also want to take off the hat of the perennial runner-up and win the championship of the joint school league. This year we still have great hopes."
Li Yaqi had full confidence in Yuan Jing. Such a genius was rare in a thousand years. He didn't believe that those three schools, including the extremely powerful Holy Light Magic Academy, could produce a talented magician who could compete with Yuan Jing.
Yuan Jing smiled: "I will try my best. Everyone is working hard, and I also want to see the magic of other schools and learn from them."
A special Knight of Light led them to the designated resting place, waiting for the official start of the Seven Schools League. Although it was called the Seven Schools League, there were actually more than seven participating schools. However, the lower the ranking, the less impressive they were, and they came here just to broaden their horizons and make up the numbers.
In the competition held every two years, the top four schools hardly change, except for the third and fourth places, which sometimes go up and sometimes go down. The other schools compete for the last three places, and it is an honor to be included in the top seven.
After settling down, everyone wanted to go out for a walk. As the most prosperous city, it has the most complete range of magical items, which is something that even Deya City cannot match. So everyone was in high spirits. At this time, Li Yaqi walked in from outside with a stack of invitations.
"This is an invitation letter from various chambers of commerce. There will be many auctions held in the near future. Anyone interested can come to me to get an invitation letter to enter."
Everyone exclaimed in surprise. The standard of the auction here was undoubtedly the highest. Even if they couldn't afford it, they could at least go in to broaden their horizons. So they all wanted to get the invitation letter. Yuan Jing and Yan Yuansen did not move at first, but Li Yaqi finally left one for Yuan Jing.
"This is the invitation letter from the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce. You can go and take a look when you have time. It's good to broaden your horizons. If you have anything you want to send to the auction, you can prepare it two days in advance and send it for appraisal."
Yuan Jing thought it was a coincidence. It seemed that they had a good connection with the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce. He took the invitation and said with a smile, "Thank you, Mr. Li. We will go and have a look."
Li Yaqi smiled, nodded at Yan Yuansen, then turned and left.
On the way here, Li Yaqi had a lot of contact with the knight beside Yuan Jing. He had a feeling that he couldn't see through him, and always felt that they were closer. Li Yaqi also found that his teacher Cheng Lianhui was also very polite to Yan Yuansen, and wondered if the teacher knew something.
Yuan Jing and Yan Yuansen had already guessed that Cheng Lianhui had guessed Yan Yuansen's identity, but he said nothing to Dean Flynn. This time, the team came to the Holy City of Light and was led by Vice Dean Cheng himself.
Yuan Jing thought that perhaps the biggest flaw was the identity of the space magician. There were only a few famous space magicians on this continent, and he happened to have space magic among the many magic systems.
Since fate has come to them, Yuan Jing and Yan Yuansen don't want to miss it. Although the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce behaves very badly in private, the items in the chamber of commerce are quite good. If they really like something, they don't mind buying it.
Yuan Jing didn't have anything he wanted to send to auction. When he left Deya, he sold a batch of magic items in the elf shop and exchanged them for a lot of magic crystals and other magic resources. Before the auction, the two of them wandered around the city, and the places they went to most were the restaurants. They spent a lot of purple crystal coins to taste the delicacies of the Holy City of Light. Compared with Deya City, it is not just one or two levels away, the difference is huge.
Because Deya City is not a city famous for enjoyment. Speaking of enjoyment, perhaps no force on this continent can compare to the Church of Light. Occasionally, you will meet a clergyman of a higher position in the Church of Light on the road. The robe he wears is astonishing. The material of the robe itself and the decorations are all made of the finest magical materials.
When we arrived at the entrance of the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce auction house, there were quite a few people waiting to enter. However, only those with a special invitation from the Chamber of Commerce could enter. You couldn't just enter if you wanted to. Because the standard was high, there were quite a few clergymen from the Church of Light. The guards and staff standing at the door immediately became fawning when they saw them, and respectfully welcomed them in.
Yuan Jing and Yan Yuansen queued up to enter. When it was their turn, the staff member looked at the senior magician badge on Yuan Jing and the invitation letter in his hand, and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes. He waved his hand and said, "Go in. Don't walk around and offend people you shouldn't offend."
A high-level magician has a good status outside, but what does it mean in the Holy City? At least he has to be a wizard or magister.
Li Yaqi also came, entering the venue earlier than Yuan Jing and the others, and saw the scene at the door. When Yuan Jing and Yan Yuansen came in, Li Yaqi walked over and whispered, "Haven't you gone for the appraisal yet?"
Yuan Jing blinked innocently, then flipped his hand and took out a new badge: "Is this what Teacher Li is talking about? I forgot to change it."
Li Yaqi laughed. Did he forget? In his opinion, it was intentional. Then he covered his mouth and said, "Okay, go in quickly."
It would be great if he forgot about it until the league game, so that other schools would think Yuan Jing was just a high-level magician, and then they would know how powerful he was when he took action. As for why he didn't change to a new badge, is there a mandatory rule to change it?
It seems not.
Because they were students, they could not enjoy the privilege of using the private rooms, so they found a seat at the back of the hall and sat down, waiting for the auction to begin.
The ones who can enjoy the treatment of the upper box are probably the vice president and his colleagues. Yuan Jing said he is not envious.
While talking to Yan Yuansen, they felt a familiar breath coming in from the door. They looked up and saw that it was Leo who disappeared after coming here.
Yuan Jing raised his eyebrows: "He has been looking for a place to advance these days. He is also a magician. The male protagonist should be proud again."
Yan Yuansen looked at him critically and said, "He ran out right after he was promoted. His aura is rather impetuous. He is anxious. If he waits for a while before promoting again, the effect will be better than now. Besides, he can't wait to calm down for a while."
Leo didn't notice Yuan Jing and Yan Yuansen in the hall. After coming in, he hurried upstairs. There were private rooms upstairs. This was a good treatment. Yuan Jing quickly left a trace of soul power mark on him.
