Chapter 97 Beautiful Wetlands

"Oh my god! Is that really all?"

"No wonder West Lake Academy can even invite gods, this is too amazing!"

Exclamations rang out in the carriage one after another. Although many people had doubts, seeing the Green Bull Monster was so confident and even swore by his own cultivation, they couldn't help but believe it a little.

Lin Dong had already been attracted to West Lake College. He had not even seen the real strength of West Lake College, but he was already yearning for it. "So how can I join West Lake College?"

The red-clothed commoner smiled and said, "This is also a question that everyone who comes to Hangchen will ask. According to the dean, they usually recruit students every year, but the time of recruitment is not fixed. They usually issue a notice before recruiting students. The last time they opened the experimental class, they also announced it in advance."

"However, there are many people and monsters who want to enter West Lake Academy. Except for the experimental class, West Lake Academy recruits geniuses, but not the kind of geniuses we think of, but those with the strongest talent, qualifications, and potential. Some geniuses go to academies that are not suitable for them and learn unsuitable skills, which leads to slow improvement in their cultivation. But once they enter West Lake Academy, they will be amazing!"

"The son of a neighbor of mine joined a sect with a low level of cultivation. However, because of his great potential, he was recruited into West Lake Academy. Now his cultivation level is almost catching up with the elders of his former sect!"

The words of the red-clothed commoner made the Lin family members in the carriage have many associations with West Lake College, and they were more looking forward to the upcoming anniversary celebration.

Along the way, Lin Dong could see that there were other buses running in front and behind them, one after another, transporting people from various families to one place, Xixi Wetland.

"We're here. This is the location for the anniversary celebration of West Lake College, Xixi Wetland."

Lin Dong followed the people in red and got off the bus. After everyone got off, the Qingniu bus drove forward for a distance. Another group of people in red who had guided the family before got on the bus and headed back to the city gate.

Lin Dong looked at this scene and nodded, "So orderly!"

The red-dressed people stood in the front and waved the small flags they carried with them. "Friends of the Lin family, please follow the blue flags and go this way!"

Lin Dong followed naturally.

The bus was parked in a large square. There was not just one bus, but several other buses as well. Some were in front, some were in the back, and the colors of the small flags carried by each citizen in red were slightly different.

After Lin Dong and the others walked for a while, they walked along a road from the square. There were huge gantries built on both sides of the road, and behind them was a row of neatly arranged low shops. There were many people in the shops selling fruits and food, as well as some specialties of Hangzhou.

Many family members subconsciously took out their money to buy some and ate while walking.

After several hundred meters, a huge stone tablet appeared in front of everyone, "Xixi Wetland".

The red-dressed people stood on one side of the stone tablet, waving small flags in their hands, "Friends of the Lin family, gather here! Is everyone here?"

Although many people bought some food on the street, no one was just wandering around. After waiting for a few minutes, when everyone had arrived, the people in red led them to line up at the entrance.

The red-clothed commoner first handed the jade slip in his hand to the window of a house at the entrance, where several commoners were helping with chores.

There was a cultivator wearing a simple red suit with the words "West Lake Academy" embroidered on his chest. He took the jade slip from the common people's hands, and spiritual power flashed in his hands. He was reading the information inside, and then registered and planned on another jade slip based on the information.

"Area E, row 24, Mingzhou Lin family, head Lin Chenwen, registration completed! You can line up to enter!"

He turned around and looked at the wall behind him. On the wall were hung the signs of various areas. He waved his hand and a wooden sign floated into his hand. It was the sign for row 24, area E.

He engraved the name and number of the Mingzhou Lin family on the north side of the sign, handed it to a commoner beside him, and then continued to look at the next jade slip.

The citizen took the sign and handed it to the citizen in red who was waiting at the window.

The red-clothed man thanked the Lin family and walked back to them. He then led them to the entrance based on the sign.

After counting the number of people, they finally entered the Xixi Wetland.

This wetland has been transformed by the people of West Lake College and has become completely different.

The river channel was widened and cleaned, several docks were built on each island, and a high platform was built in the center of each island. There were countless pavilions and towers next to the platform, all of which were used to accommodate the people of those families.

The boats at the pier are all made of iron sheets, and at the bottom there are several monsters sitting on chairs and treading water. The direction of the steering and the force of treading water make the boat move forward.

Formations and runes were carved under and around the ship to reduce its weight.

Just after entering Xixi Wetland, they arrived at the pier. People in red led them onto the boat with signs in their hands.

The ship stopped along the way, and every time it stopped, some people would follow a man in red to get off the ship.

After two stops, Lin Dong and his crew got off the boat at this small island.

The people in red led them to a square with squares painted on it. On different squares were placed various tents and some accommodating magic weapons.

Lin Dong and his friends were taken to the 24th row.

"This is Area E. It's marked on the ground. You have 24 rows here. Do you see the numbers on the ground? Remember these numbers. They are what we use to count. This is 2, and this is 4. Together they make 24. These numbers from 0 to 9 were invented by the dean. They make counting very convenient."

The red-clothed commoner said, "You can use your own storage magic tools, such as caves, pavilions, and some boats. If you don't have such magic tools, you can go to our store next door to buy tents, which are simple storage magic tools for living that are refined by students of the academy."

"We'll come over and settle down later. In two minutes, we'll go check out your viewing spots." The man in red continued.

After everyone remembered the location of this place, the people in red led them to another square.

The other square was a bit strange. It was a huge empty square with small grids carved on it. There was a chair placed on a row of each grid, with numbers carved on the back of the chair.
