High-martial world + No female lead + Leveling up.
Starting with an SSS-rank talent and a mysterious sword spirit teacher, Jiang Wuyuan can only ask: How can I lose?
Years later.
...
Of course, there are limitations: the age limit is 20. Each student typically only has their first two years of university to climb this tower.
Jiang Wuyuan followed Ruan Kongyin's hand and looked over, and sure enough, he saw a stone tablet that was polished to an extremely smooth finish at the foot of the tower.
He didn't recognize most of the names on the stone tablet, but he did see the name Ruan Kongyin on it.
He ranked fifth, and his maximum climbing height was 27 percent of the eighth floor.
“Don’t underestimate that 27 percent.” Ruan Kongyin naturally knew that Jiang Wuyuan had already seen his ranking, and his voice was somewhat solemn. “After the sixth level, every one percent is almost an insurmountable barrier.”
Jiang Wuyuan knew that Ruan Kongyin had no reason to lie to him, and he still greatly admired someone who was capable of making it into the top ten of the rankings: "I understand, thank you for your guidance, senior."
Ruan Kongyin smiled and nodded.
When he received this task from Ruan Yanqing, he thought he would be facing a proud and arrogant person, and he was even prepared to be looked down upon.
The moment he saw Jiang Wuyuan for the first time, he became even more certain of this idea.
At that time, Jiang Wuyuan stood against the light, carrying a sword box on his back.
The hem of his black trench coat fluttered in the wind, his handsome face was indifferent, and his unfathomable black eyes seemed to reflect a vast and boundless galaxy.
Ruan Kongyin couldn't even find a word to describe him for a moment.
Perhaps this is how a peerless swordsman should be.
Therefore, he silently accepted the new junior's difficult nature and arrogance, even though Jiang Wuyuan did not show it on his face.
However, it turns out that this was not the case.
The Battle Heaven Academy is so large that it took several hours just to introduce the buildings.
Of course, this was also because neither of them was in a particularly serious hurry.
So during the few hours they spent together, Ruan Kongyin gradually came to understand Jiang Wuyuan.
He doesn't talk much, but he listens attentively to others.
Calm and composed, with a humble and unassuming personality.
And although he tried to restrain himself, a trace of his vital energy would still occasionally leak out—powerful and sharp.
This is also why Ruan Kongyin just invited him to join the hunting party.
No one would refuse such a peerless genius.
Ruan Kongyin silently gave Jiang Wuyuan a very high score in her heart, and admiration flashed in her eyes.
Having studied music, chess, calligraphy, and painting for many years, he was more mature than his peers. Therefore, he understood that what was more valuable than Jiang Wuyuan's talent was his character.
Now, there's only one place left to introduce.
Ruan Kongyin leisurely led the way for Jiang Wuyuan: "The last place I'll introduce to you is very suitable for cultivation. Most freshmen and sophomores like to spend their free time there."
The Blood-Burning Tower contains several massive magic arrays that can accelerate cultivation.
Of course, training here requires credits. The cheapest spot costs 10 credits per hour, and better spots are naturally more expensive.
Jiang Wuyuan looked at the red and black building in front of him and felt the spiritual energy emanating from dozens of meters away, and was pleasantly surprised.
It is indeed a good place for cultivation.
Having circled around the school, Ruan Kongyin looked at the high-rising sun and gave herself a thumbs up for her route planning: "It's lunchtime, wanna grab some food together?"
The last stop on Ruan Kongyin's itinerary was next to the Burning Blood Tower, which was the largest canteen in the academy.
"This meal is on me, senior," Jiang Wuyuan said earnestly to Ruan Kongyin.
Ruan Kongyin raised an eyebrow: "The first meal is to celebrate your successful enrollment, so I should be treating you. Okay, don't refuse. I have enough credits for you to eat as much as you want. You can save the ones you earned when you first enrolled." As Ruan Kongyin spoke, she smiled and winked, "Earning credits isn't easy, so don't starve yourself."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Wuyuan had no choice but to put away his student card: "I shall comply."
Ruan Kongyin chuckled and led Jiang Wuyuan into the cafeteria.
——
Zhantian City is almost always shrouded in darkness, with the sky constantly obscured by clouds.
Ruan Kongyin explained that it was due to the influence of the abyss, but Jiang Wuyuan neither confirmed nor denied it.
After touring the school where they would be living for the next four years and enjoying a delicious lunch, Ruan Kongyin led Jiang Wuyuan toward the dormitory area.
“The dormitory is divided into three areas: four-person dormitory area, double dormitory area, and single dormitory area,” Ruan Kongyin introduced. “I heard from my uncle that he has applied for a single detached villa for you.”
Ruan Kongyin smiled helplessly as she said this: "A single detached villa requires 1,000 credits per month. Your uncle is only temporarily giving you the right to live there, but you still have to pay the credits. He means that if you don't make up the 1,000 credits within a month, you will be reassigned to a four-person dormitory next month. Most freshmen will live there when school starts, and you don't need to pay credits for the first month."
Jiang Wuyuan wasn't surprised, after all, he didn't think he couldn't even pay a thousand credits within a month.
"My mission for today is successfully completed." Ruan Kongyin led Jiang Wuyuan to a small villa, explained the fingerprinting process to him, and then prepared to leave. "My dormitory is the villa behind yours. Feel free to contact me anytime if you have any questions. Um... want to add each other as friends?"
Jiang Wuyuan readily agreed and touched the bracelet with him.
"Thank you for today, senior." Jiang Wuyuan felt good about spending the morning together.
