In front of the large, black, ornate iron gate, a middle-aged guard in a blue uniform glared sharply at Linda and the others.
The guard's right hand stealthily reached for the hilt of his sword. Another guard, sensing they were not to be trifled with, retreated to the small hut, activated his short-range communication magic stone, and requested backup from his captain.
That's understandable, they were just a group of Moon-rank guards.
The group of "uninvited guests" in front of them were all at the Light Rank!
Even in a large city like Cangqing City, a Dawn-level adventure team composed of Light-rank members is still a big shot.
The round-faced guard, named Mickey, said with a fierce but weak tone, "Don't gather at the academy gate to cause trouble. Our dean is a Saint-level adventurer. When she gets here, you'll be in for a world of hurt!"
This was obviously meant to scare outsiders. Dean Bai Luo was too busy to bother with a mere guard.
"Cough cough cough, brother, did you not hear what I said?"
I'm not here to cause trouble; this keepsake can serve as proof.
"Your dean and I had an agreement that I could stay at her place when I came to Cangqing City."
Linda politely repeated it.
He took out the business card that Bai Luo had given him, which belonged to the head of the academy, and showed it to him.
"A token?"
Mickey took the business card suspiciously, looking at it from both sides, somewhat puzzled. His colleagues couldn't figure it out either, so they called for the captain to verify the card's authenticity.
Linda waited patiently.
Tiger's temper flared up, and he cursed, "You blind bunch! I'm Lord Bai Luo's good friend, how dare you treat me like this? I'll kick you both out tomorrow!"
"Stop cursing, they're just doing their job." Linda shook her head and stopped Taigo.
Tagore bared his teeth, scaring the two guards so much that they fled into the small house and dared not come out.
"Seriously, people in big cities are so fashionable!" Anna exclaimed excitedly, pointing to the scantily clad girls on the street. Although the capital was also a big city, its strict laws meant that people's clothing styles were far more conservative.
In Cangqing City, however, things were different. The girls on the street, wearing fishnet stockings, tank tops, crop tops, and mini skirts, walked down the street without batting an eye.
Linda observed for quite a while out of the corner of her eye, thinking to herself, "The atmosphere in big cities is really different. If this were Baige City, I bet someone would politely ask the price."
While waiting for the captain of the guard to arrive, he and his team looked at the girls.
"Tsk tsk, country bumpkins are disgusting."
"A good shrimp head has a keen eye."
"Hmph, what are you looking at!"
Linda was inexplicably scolded.
Just as I was feeling down, the academy's large iron gate opened.
