84: Chapter 84 New Rules and Regulations
After speaking, Instructor Shi Yan did not give Wang Pingan any further chance to talk, turning around and striding away, his tall figure quickly disappearing around the corner of the garden.
Wang Pingan stood in place, rubbing the cold metal keycard in his hand, lost in thought.
This Instructor Shi Yan was a completely different kind of person compared to Chief Instructor Lei Bao. Thunderstorm was the type of tyrant who had "survival of the fittest" written all over his face, while Instructor Shi Yan was more like a cold-eyed chess player who set the rules and watched the pieces fight each other on the board, yet never easily intervened himself.
"Interesting."
Wang Pingan smiled and stopped overthinking, taking the keycard to the five-meter-high gate cast from an unknown black metal.
He lightly swiped the keycard over the sensor area.
"Identity authenticated. Welcome, Student Wang Pingan."
A cold electronic voice sounded, and the heavy gate slid open silently to both sides.
The scene behind the gate caused even Wang Pingan, who had seen the luxury of the Special Recruitment Camp's "Heaven Character Number One", to involuntarily take a sharp breath.
What the hell... is this a dormitory?
Are you sure this isn't some private palace?
What met his eyes was an exaggeratedly large living room with a ceiling height of at least ten meters.
Beneath his feet was a white floor as warm and smooth as jade, and above his head was a dome simulating the vast starry sky, with countless stars slowly circulating and emitting a soft light.
On the left side of the living room was an open lounge area with soft, comfortable leather sofas large enough for seven or eight people to lie down.
Beside it was a bar counter stocked with all kinds of top-tier drinks and rare fruits, and there was even an automated intelligent robot butler standing quietly behind the bar, giving Wang Pingan a standard gentlemanly bow.
"Master, hello. I am your exclusive butler 'friday'. I am very happy to serve you."
The corner of Wang Pingan's mouth twitched, thinking that Xuanyuan University really knew how to live.
He ignored the robot butler and turned his gaze to the right side of the living room.
There were three alloy doors full of technological flair, labeled respectively as "Cultivation Room", "Gravity Room", and "Simulated Battle Room".
As if possessed, he walked to the door labeled "Cultivation Room" and pressed his palm against it.
"Identity verified. Student Wang Pingan, welcome to the top-tier independent Cultivation Room."
The alloy door slid open to both sides.
A surge of pure spiritual energy rushed toward him like a tsunami!
At that moment, every pore in Wang Pingan's body expanded with a sense of bliss.
The Cultivation Room was over three hundred square meters in size.
In the very center was a cultivation platform.
And in the four corners of the Cultivation Room, there actually stood four arm-thick pipes that were as transparent as crystal!
The surface of the pipes was covered with dense, profound, and complex golden runes.
Streams of high-quality spiritual energy, so pure they were nearly liquefied and even tinged with a faint gold, were continuously escaping from the pipes and filling the entire room!
Four of them!
A total of four independent high-quality spiritual energy supply pipes!
How the hell is this cultivation? This is practically bathing in Spirit Crystal Liquid!
Wang Pingan's eyes instantly turned red with excitement.
He finally understood why those geniuses fought like crazy to seize a Heaven-grade Evaluation.
Cultivating for one day in this environment could probably match a month of cultivation outside!
He forcibly suppressed the urge to start cultivating right then and there and exited the Cultivation Room.
He then went to check the Gravity Room and the Simulated Battle Room.
The equipment in the Gravity Room was even more advanced than the one Chief Instructor Lei Bao had, with a maximum adjustment of up to five hundred times gravity!
And within the Simulated Battle Room, there were dozens of different virtual battlefield environments built-in, as well as data for hundreds of virtual opponents of different races and strengths.
"Extravagant, it's too damn extravagant!"
Wang Pingan sat down on the sofa in the living room and let out a heartfelt sigh of admiration.
Just then, the personal terminal on his wrist vibrated slightly.
A piece of information was projected directly into the air in front of him.
The sender was his new instructor, Instructor Shi Yan.
The content of the message was very simple, with only a few short sentences.
[Student Wang Pingan, congratulations on moving into Heaven Character Number One Villa.]
[From today onward, you will enter a one-year freshman special training phase. During this period, all cultivation resources, martial techniques, cultivation methods, and instructor guidance will need to be exchanged for using one thing—credits.]
[There is only one way to obtain credits: log into the Campus Star Network and accept and complete tasks in the mission center.]
[The difficulty and types of tasks are numerous; please choose carefully based on your own strength.]
[Friendly reminder: Heaven Character Number One Villa is not free. Every week, you need to pay one hundred credits as a 'usage fee'. If your credits are insufficient, you will lose your residency eligibility.]
[Good luck.]
Looking at that familiar last line of the "friendly reminder", a peculiar smile appeared on Wang Pingan's face.
Good grief, the same old recipe, the same old taste.
It's this routine again.
But he liked it.
Without the slightest hesitation, Wang Pingan immediately followed the instructions in the message and connected his spirit power to the so-called "Campus Star Network".
In the next second, his consciousness seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, entering a brand-new virtual world composed of countless data streams.
