Chapter 224
Perhaps because he was moved to a place he was not familiar with, Yu Tu woke up very early the next day. He was a little confused when he saw the ceiling decoration that was white with a hint of light blue. After yawning and starting up his brain, Yu Tu remembered that he had moved to Kunlun’s student dormitory yesterday afternoon.
He rubbed his face with his hands, slowly got up from the bed and washed. When the slightly cold water splashed on his face, Yu Tu became completely awake. He raised his wrist and saw that there were still more than two hours before the 8 o'clock class.
That's a lot of time to waste.
Yu Tu dragged out his oversized suitcase, and according to his storage habits, he took out a test paper from the left and a loaf of bread and a bottle of milk from the right.
He asked Elder Di Xiu to help him come up with questions for this test paper, which covered a large amount of knowledge comparison between the inner world and the outer world. Doing exercises can better consolidate what he has learned than memorizing. Since he has average talent, he should work harder.
After tearing open the bread bag with his teeth, Yu Tu started to look at the questions while holding the piece of bread in his mouth. He wrote quickly while chewing on the bread bit by bit.
At 7:30, there was a knock on Yu Tu's dormitory door. From the sound of the knock, he knew it was Gu Hongying.
Yu Tu opened the door and saw Gu Hongying wearing a costume that looked like something out of a martial arts novel, with a sword on his back. He looked neat and energetic, "Tu Tu! Time to go to class!"
"You come in first." Yu Tu said, "I'll pack up and leave right away."
Gu Hongying walked into Yu Tu's dormitory without any precautions, and the first thing he saw was the paper full of handwriting on the desk outside.
Gu Hongying, who had gotten up at five o'clock and practiced swordsmanship for two hours on the top of the snowy mountain, said: "???"
I was involved!
His friends are all able to endure hardships and be more competitive than each other, so he won’t be the worst one, right?
Yu Tu didn't know that Gu Hongying had been aroused by his papers. He quickly put away his papers and picked up his study bag. "I've put them away. We can go now!"
When we reached the front door on the first floor, Eric and Hao Zhizhi arrived one after another. Eric had a communication device in his ears and was still handling family affairs remotely. Hao Zhizhi had a virtual light screen in front of her, and her ten fingers were flying like butterflies while she was typing on the virtual keyboard with a serious face.
"That's all for now." Eric saw them coming over from the corner of his eye, pressed the transmission device and said, "Contact me again at noon."
"Wait for me half a minute." Hao Zhizhi quickly raised her head and glanced at them. "It will be there soon."
Gu Hongying: “…”
Yu Tu: “…”
It’s so stressful to survive with a fellow student like the King of Rolls!
Half a minute later, Hao Zhizhi turned off the light screen, took off the sword on her back, and used her spiritual power to make it float about one finger above the ground.
Each school has its own characteristics. For example, the required basic course at Miller College is spells. Students are not required to be proficient in them, but they must be able to use them easily in daily life. The required basic course for Kunlun students is sword-wielding. This is because Kunlun covers a very large area, stretching over hundreds of snow-capped peaks. If students do not know how to use swords, it will take most of the day just to attend classes. The prerequisite is that the two snow-capped mountains are not too far apart.
Yu Tu also took out his sword from the side of his training bag, infused it with spiritual power and let it float in front of him. He did not intend to practice swordsmanship, so he used the Kunlun unified standard.
The four people's flying swords rose into the air at the same time, flying towards the distant snow-capped peaks like a meteor chasing the moon. The speed was not too fast, but very steady.
Yu Tu put a windshield on himself, then skillfully pulled the training bag in front of him and took out three bags of bread and three bottles of milk from the bag.
“Watermelon, strawberry, chocolate, choose now!”
His friends who were also the best students in the exam all had a bad habit of skipping breakfast. Yu Tu tried to persuade them many times but to no avail. So he started to bring his friends whatever he ate.
The other three people are already used to this process. If Yu Tu brings different flavors in the morning, they will be late.
Hao Zhizhi: "Chocolate!"
Eric: “Strawberry!”
Gu Hongying, who was busy observing the surrounding environment, was a beat slower: "Watermelon."
Yu Tu used his spiritual power to divide the bread and milk into three portions and quickly threw them in three directions. After a while, the sound of a plastic bag being torn was heard faintly in the wind.
Yu Tu looked around and sincerely hoped that Tian Yan would not paint this scene. After all, it was the first day of classes at Kunlun, with a red sun overhead and a vast snowfield beneath their feet. They should have been flying with swords in this stunning world, carefree and unrestrained, instead of wearing windshields, holding milk in the left hand and bread in the right hand, without any image at all.
Yu Tu repented in his heart for a few seconds, and then decided to turn a blind eye - physical health is more important!
It's a bit cold during the Sword Flying Tour, so bring some steamed buns and soy milk tomorrow.
…
Breakfast was almost finished, and their watches guided them to land on a huge square. The ground of the square was paved with white stones, and in the center hung the phantom of a tasselless long sword. With the phantom as the center, the square was evenly divided into five equal parts, and in each part there were some long swords inserted straight in the sword slots.
Before Yu Tu landed, the flying sword under his feet suddenly began to buzz, as if some invisible force was guiding him. He followed the pulling force and landed in the fan-shaped area in the south. When the flying sword was about a finger's distance from the ground, Yu Tu heard a mechanical prompt sound—
[The flying sword has entered the sword parking area, wood area, please park the flying sword as required. ]
There is a parking lot in the outer world, and there is even a sword parking lot in the inner world!
Yu Tu jumped off the sword, and raised his hand slightly. The spiritual energy brought the hilt into his palm automatically. Yu Tu found a nearby sword slot and tentatively inserted the sword into it. With a crisp "click", the sword slot automatically changed to the shape that best fits the flying sword, and a light curtain popped up at the front end of the slot:
[Sword slot in use...
Please ask if I can lock the sword for you [Yes]】
Yu Tu was greatly shocked.
He clicked [Yes], and the screen changed its content again—
【The sword locking process has been completed.
To use, please unlock with your fingerprint.
I wish you a happy study. 】
Yu Tu was shocked in the wood area, and the other people were no less shocked. They all talked about their previous impressions of Kunlun, which were all ancient and ethereal. However, the scene before them had a bit of the flavor of technological cultivation.
The four of them locked their swords on the fencing pad and gathered again, everyone with a look of shock on their faces. Because it was Xuefeng's first time to come to Kunlun for class, their watches intimately pointed out the route forward for them—they needed to cross the huge fencing pad to get to the sword steps.
Walking through the sword display area, they can see many swords, many of which are of the standard type issued by Kunlun, but many of them are of strange and unique shapes.
For example, some swords are silver-white and graceful, but a cute plush toy is tied to the end; some swords are like a cluster of narrow flames, with frozen lightning swaying at the end, and the whole looks cool and unusual; some swords are like unfinished sword embryos, a black mass, but there is a flower swaying in the wind on the hilt...
They crossed the sword park as if they were crossing a sword museum.
"Wow——" Gu Hongying was amazed, "How is this different from a parking lot full of luxury cars!"
"My impression of Kunlun has been completely overturned..." Hao Zhizhi sighed, "Technology really changes the world!"
"Wind Thunder Stone, Silver Shadow Wood, Sky Flow Purple..." Eric's eyes swept across the swords of different shapes, and he couldn't help but whisper the names of the materials, "What precious materials."
Yu Tu deeply agreed.
With a glance, he could basically tell what precious main material was used in the sword. After being dazzled, Yu Tu understood a truth—
There must be a reason why sword cultivators are so poor!
After passing the Swordsman's Landing, the Sword Stairs mentioned on the watch appeared in front of them. As the name suggests, the Sword Stairs consisted of swords that crossed over to form a staircase that extended into the clouds.
Gu Hongying stepped on it tentatively, and a message popped up on his watch instantly:
【Please choose to log in to the sword level mode
Regular version (Conscience version)
If Gu Hongying had not gone through the special summer training, he might have clicked on the [questioning version] out of curiosity to try it out, since he could just quit at worst. However, because of his recklessness during the summer, he was cheated again and again in the training, and he learned to be cautious.
Although he was very curious about the effect of the [Sword Stairs Mode Conscience Version], Gu Hongying decisively chose the normal version. The moment he made the decision, the stairs in front of him built with horizontal flying swords instantly turned into ordinary white stone stairs.
Seeing that Gu Hongying didn't move after stepping on the first flying sword, Yu Tu and the others immediately became alert. If Gu Hongying hadn't quickly come to his senses and explained the reason to them, they would have suspected that they would be in trouble again after gathering together.
After Gu Hongying's explanation, the three of them also chose [Normal Version of Sword Step Mode]. Then the four of them looked at each other... and all of them rushed up with all their might!
They reserved half an hour to get from the dormitory building to Xuefeng for class, but it took nearly ten minutes to hold the sword, and then more than ten minutes to lock the sword through the sword-stopping area. The reserved time was only about seven minutes. No one knew what they would encounter later, but the time was obviously not enough!
Thanks to the good physical fitness they had trained in their freshman year, the four of them ran and jumped on the white stone steps for five minutes without anyone falling behind. Before the two-minute countdown to the class started, they rushed into the door at the end of the white stone steps.
A mechanical voice sounded in their ears:
【Four unregistered students detected, identification in progress...】
【Metallic Gu Hongying.】
【Wood belongs to Yutu. 】
【Fire belongs to Eric.】
【Earth belongs to Hao Zhizhi.】
[The unregistered student information has been renamed as [Exchange students from Miller-Kerr University to Kunlun University]. ]
【Identification successful, authentication passed.】
