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.
...
Jiang Wuyuan flew on his sword and quickly found the gate of Zhan Tian Academy.
Honestly, it's not hard to find.
It was an exceptionally magnificent stone archway, bearing many mottled marks from the passage of time, yet its solemnity remained undiminished.
The four characters "Battle Heaven Academy" carved on it exude a fierce fighting spirit.
Jiang Wuyuan slowly descended in front of the archway.
The longsword flashed like a streak of light and flew back into the nameless sword box that Jiang Wuyuan carried on his back.
The sword case wasn't large, so even carrying it on his back didn't affect his upright posture.
"Jiang, it's been a week." Ruan Yanqing appeared beside Jiang Wuyuan at some point, and together they looked at the majestic Zhantian Academy.
“Vice Principal Ruan.” Jiang Wuyuan was not surprised by Ruan Yanqing’s arrival and turned to nod politely at him.
Ruan Yanqing smiled and said, "Welcome back to Zhan Tian Academy. I promise you won't be disappointed. Also, this is the gift I promised you when you enrolled."
Ruan Yanqing smiled and handed over a skill scroll.
"A mid-grade Earth-rank skill, Battle Cry. For ten minutes, it can enhance your combat awareness and increase your attack power. The specific effects increase with your proficiency." Ruan Yanqing explained, noticing the hint of curiosity in Jiang Wuyuan's calm eyes. "It's essentially a short-term buff skill with no side effects. I think it should be very suitable for you."
"Thank you, Vice Principal Ruan." Jiang Wuyuan was satisfied. He took the scroll and put it into his spatial ring.
"Okay, go back and practice hard." Ruan Yanqing nodded. "Now that the gift has been delivered, I'll be leaving. As the vice principal, I still have some things to take care of. But don't worry, I've already arranged for someone else to show you around the academy."
Jiang Wuyuan understood Ruan Yanqing's busy schedule and politely said goodbye to him.
A moment later, a snow-white figure slowly walked out from inside the Battle Heaven Academy.
Jiang Wuyuan raised an eyebrow.
The tall young man wore a white training robe embroidered with delicate bamboo leaf patterns.
He had long hair, which was tied back with a white jade hairpin.
His face was refined and handsome, with the elegance of a scholar.
"Hello, Jiang Wuyuan." He walked slowly closer, a gentle smile on his lips. "My name is Ruan Kongyin, a second-year student in the Mage Department of Zhantian Academy, and the current vice president of the student council. I am your senior."
Surname Ruan?
This surname shouldn't be very common, right? I actually encountered two people with it today.
“The Vice Principal Ruan you were just talking to is my uncle.” Ruan Kongyin seemed to see through Jiang Wuyuan’s doubts and said gently, “Welcome to Zhantian Academy. Let me take you to register your information first.”
Jiang Wuyuan nodded and followed Ruan Kongyin's footsteps.
The registration process was quick. By the time Jiang Wuyuan came to his senses, he had already received two sets of school uniforms and a black student card from Ruan Kongyin after registering his student status.
"After the start of the semester, you will need to wear the academy uniform when moving around the academy unless there are special circumstances. It is comparable to the third-tier combat uniform on the market and is sufficient for first- and second-year students," Ruan Kongyin explained. "I won't go into the importance of the student card. The student card will record your credits. Every student will receive 500 credits free of charge from the school when they enter the first year. This is unrelated to your enrollment reward and is a rule of our Zhantian Academy."
Jiang Wuyuan nodded.
500 credits are roughly enough to cover a month's food expenses.
It's probably to help newly enrolled students get used to campus life.
Next, Ruan Kongyin took Jiang Wuyuan on a tour of the Zhantian Academy for the entire morning.
As one of the four top academies in the Dragon Kingdom, Zhan Tian Academy covers an extremely vast area, and there are six places in it that are particularly useful to Jiang Wuyuan.
According to Ruan Kongyin, the Treasure Pavilion is where you can exchange credits for items. Whatever you want, as long as you have enough credits, you can get it here.
The Cultivation Techniques Pavilion. As the name suggests, it is a place to store cultivation techniques and skill scrolls. It is a pagoda-like building, with exquisite glazed tiles and a carved wooden body, all of which reveal the extraordinary nature of this pagoda.
The Preaching Building is where Jiang Wuyuan will be attending classes for the next four years; all the classrooms are located here.
The Mission Hall is where all students of the Battle Heaven Academy come to receive missions and earn credits; it is also the main activity location for the Hunting Group.
As she finished her introduction, Ruan Kongyin smiled and promoted her hunting group: "I've heard about you from my uncle... Vice Principal Ruan. On behalf of my hunting group 'Dawn,' I invite you to join us."
Of course, you don't need to agree so quickly; you can make your choice after learning about all the hunting parties that have invited you. However, I'm still confident that Dawnbreaker is a very good fit.
"Thank you, I will think it over carefully," Jiang Wuyuan replied earnestly.
Next, we will visit two extremely special places within the Battle Heaven Academy.
"The Battle Tower." Ruan Kongyin looked at the towering black tower in front of her, a hint of respect in her eyes. "The Abyss is a place that all of us humans fear, but it is undeniable that there are also many opportunities there that we crave. This tower is the spoils of war that our former principal, Zhan Wuji, brought back from the depths of the Abyss."
The tower has nine floors, each offering a unique challenge tailored to different individuals. Furthermore, each successful ascent of a floor awards academic credits.
As Ruan Kongyin spoke, she smiled and looked into Jiang Wuyuan's calm and deep eyes: "I look forward to seeing what you will achieve here. Do you see the stone tablet over there? The names of the top ten climbers will be recorded on the stone tablet forever."
