"Mr. Linda, please come in!"
A tall, imposing guard captain bowed respectfully and returned the business card to Linda.
Despite Linda's drab appearance, outdated clothes, and heavy regional accent, as long as he holds this business card, he is a VIP guest of the Azure Sky Adventurers University.
The captain of the guards said with a forced smile, "I'm really sorry, but recently some damned cultists have been infiltrating the academy, so we have to impose a curfew."
"understand."
Linda nodded.
The cult's invasion of Azure Sky Adventurer University is a harbinger of the upcoming version 2.0.
The Dragon's Tomb Society has thoroughly infiltrated Cangqing City, planting its people in various factions.
As for their purpose...
Linda looked up at the towering, verdant tree in the center of the city, which resembled a pillar reaching to the heavens.
The Azure Tree can have a maximum of 35 floors.
As long as the World Tree exists, adventurers will continuously produce powerful individuals who will establish cities throughout the wilderness.
It can be called the source of life.
Burning the World Tree is the best way to deal with adventurers.
Furthermore, the demons possess a secret technique that allows them to extract a divine substance called the "Primordial Water" from the roots of the World Tree. When Lia's father, Augut, consumed a small amount, he broke through from the Star Rank to the Moon Rank.
The [Primordial Water] contained within the Azure Tree can grant the Demon race several more level 80 Law-level beings.
"I must remind Bai Luo to continue strengthening the academy's defenses."
As Linda pondered this, she entered the academy under the guidance of the guard captain.
The academy covers a vast area, with a tall stone sculpture of a swordsman standing at the entrance. It is said to be the academy's first dean, a level 85 top adventurer who mastered the "Law of the Blade".
Unfortunately, several hundred years have passed, and the Azure Sky Adventurers' University has also declined. The strongest among them is currently only at the Saint rank, and the Heaven rank of level 70 is still out of reach.
That being said, this is still the most prestigious academy in Cangqing Province.
Walking on campus, the sun was shining brightly and the spring breeze was gentle; time seemed to slow down. It also made Linda acutely aware that he had become a 25-year-old man.
In the college, groups of young girls walked by, carrying textbooks, leaving behind a string of silvery laughter.
Some people were practicing swordsmanship on the playground, sweating profusely.
There's also a huge basketball court, similar to a basketball court, but you can use elbows and even magical attacks. Every student is dressed like a lump of iron, making it a sport full of competitive spirit.
A series of familiar scenes came into view, and Linda felt somewhat dazed.
I've had similar experiences myself.
However, in this world, I and most of my teammates were self-taught and had never received proper training.
These kinds of peasants are not favored by academics.
As Linda and her group walked toward the teaching building, many students looked at them with strange eyes.
"What are you looking at? Look again and I'll beat you up!" Taigo glared at the students, and his fiery red battle aura surged out.
In an instant, the temperature in the air doubled, making people feel like they were in an oven!
Light Scale!
The students' expressions immediately changed.
How come this poor country bumpkin is so amazing?
The guard captain quickly apologized, "They're just a bunch of kids, don't bother with them."
Then he winked at the students.
Hurry up and get to class, don't loiter outside!
Seeing the students flee, Tego proudly raised his head: "Don't worry, this great one won't get angry with children, wahahahaha!"
"Alright, let's not cause any more trouble. We're here to visit Bai Luo," Linda said.
"Oh." Tagore finally quieted down.
A moment later, the group entered the building, led by the head of the security team.
They ascended slowly on a circular, suspended magical staircase.
It's a bit like an elevator shaft, with a clear view of the entire campus through the transparent glass.
Ding-dong.
On the control panel, the 55th button is lit up.
"The dean's office is just ahead, please."
After escorting Linda and the others here, the captain of the guard left.
Emerging from the magic staircase and passing through a clean and tidy corridor, the group stopped in front of the door bearing the sign for the Dean's Office.
Knock knock!
"who?"
"It's me, Linda from White Dove City. As promised, I've come."
As soon as the words were spoken, a light footstep approached.
The door in front of me opened.
"welcome."
A silver-haired catgirl, dressed in a white sundress, appeared gracefully behind the door.
Bai Luo was wearing a pair of pink cat slippers. She was less than 1.4 meters tall, barely reaching Lin Da's chest, and looked like a kindergarten student.
But Linda knew that Bai Luo hated being treated like a child.
"Dean, it's been a long time." Linda bowed, performing an adventurer's greeting.
"Come in. Hmm, your aura has reached the Light Rank? Not bad, you have indeed fulfilled the agreement you made back then, and even exceeded it."
Bai Luo smiled faintly. She tucked a strand of long hair behind her ear, stepped aside, and gestured for her to proceed.
This gave Linda a sense of mature womanly charm, comparable only to Lulu and Tasia. But Bai Luo's petite figure and unremarkable chest seemed out of place, giving him the illusion that she was a child trying to act like an adult.
Bai Luo has a smooth white cat tail with a black bow at the end, a style reminiscent of an elementary school student.
Linda noticed the subconscious contempt in her eyes, and her heart skipped a beat. She shook her head vigorously. Bai Luo was an adult, and she couldn't underestimate him!
Bai Luo asked suspiciously, "Were you thinking about something impolite just now?"
