Magic City University, Island in the Sky
After discussing the custom equipment, I just need to wait a few days to pick it up.
Lin Xuan said goodbye to the others and left alone.
Today is Sunday.
This afternoon, he still had an important matter to attend to.
That was the Freshmen Tournament.
Originally, he had no intention of participating in this event.
After all, the Freshmen Tournament's Rookie King only awarded 10,000 academic credits.
It was basically just for the title.
He still had tens of millions of academic credits now.
He didn't care about such a small amount.
The main reason he wanted to participate now was for Honor Points.
The Rookie King award was five Honor Points.
That was equivalent to a dungeon.
Of course, it was still early, not even ten o'clock in the morning.
Lin Xuan then thought of going to Modu University.
To give the life water to Brother Xu.
Mingzhu University is located to the east of Jianghai City, at the city's East Gate.
Modu University, on the other hand, is located at the South Gate of Jianghai City.
As a super main city capable of accommodating hundreds of millions of people,
There is some distance between the two schools.
Fortunately, the Chen Family Manor, which he had just left, was located between the two.
So he wouldn't have to take too long a detour.
However, Lin Xuan still took out the 7th order riding pet essence.
It was time to unlock the flying function of the mount!
Ever since he reached Level 50 last night and unlocked the mount,
Lin Xuan found that the mount was not as good as he had imagined.
This is reality, not a game.
Mounts naturally do not have an automatic pathfinding function.
Even more so, they cannot use GPS positioning and navigation like cars.
When a Professional rides on it, it's like driving a car; they need to be connected to the mount's mind at all times.
However, there is naturally a reason why it can be called a mount.
This thing, it knows the way.
In other words, as long as he rides it frequently,
It will gradually form automatic navigation.
Therefore, Lin Xuan planned to upgrade the purple golden gourd to the 7th Order.
By flying in the air, he could quickly deepen the mount's route memory.
Of course, more importantly, Brother Xu has already been in his second year this year.
The Modu University campus where he is located has moved to a sky island.
To see him, he needs a teleportation array or to ride someone else's flying mount.
If the purple golden gourd had the ability to fly, it could also save him some money.
[Do you want to consume the 7th order riding pet essence to upgrade the 6th Order Mount, purple golden gourd, to the 7th Order?]
After the essence fusion, the purple golden gourd, upgraded to the 7th Order, will unlock the flying function due to its characteristics.
Lin Xuan chose to confirm without hesitation.
[Ding! 7th order riding pet essence fusion successful! Congratulations on obtaining the 7th Order Mount, purple golden gourd!]
[purple golden gourd, flying function activated!]
Along with the system prompt,
The purple golden gourd beneath Lin Xuan began to emit a faint purple light.
At the same time,
Mysterious purple patterns spread across the surface of the purple golden gourd.
With a flash of light,
The size of the purple golden gourd instantly doubled.
Originally, Lin Xuan's size was just right when riding on it.
Now he appeared much smaller.
"This feeling is truly wonderful!"
After reaching the 7th Order, the purple golden gourd seemed to have gained some intelligence.
Compared to when it was 6th Order, it became easier to control.
Lin Xuan patted the purple golden gourd and lightly shouted, "Rise!"
With a whoosh,
The purple golden gourd carried him soaring into the sky.
Initially, the speed was not fast, like an elevator rising, very stable.
But after flying to a height of several hundred meters,
The flying speed suddenly accelerated.
However, Lin Xuan, sitting on it, felt incredibly stable.
Just like sitting on an airplane.
"Not bad."
Lin Xuan nodded in satisfaction, looking down at the bustling city below.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Indeed, there were still some good things.
Professionals only unlock flying ability after reaching Level 150.
Now he could soar at Level 50.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—
The scenery around him rapidly receded.
Lin Xuan controlled the purple golden gourd, performing S-shaped flights in mid-air.
This feeling was exhilarating! So satisfying!
After playing for half an hour,
Lin Xuan finally reined in his playful mood and controlled the purple golden gourd to fly towards the South Gate.
At an altitude of ten thousand meters,
The humans below were no longer visible, but the full view of Jianghai City was within sight.
And directly below him now,
Was the Modu University campus, similar to the Mingzhu University gate.
Modu and Mingzhu Universities are equally famous in Jianghai City.
However, Modu University has developed rapidly in recent years, subtly surpassing Mingzhu University.
This could be seen from the sky island ahead.
Sky islands formed after the Great Catastrophe.
Similarly, this is also a symbol of a super main city.
There are a total of seven sky islands in Jianghai City.
Their area is neither too big nor too small.
They don't block the sunlight in the air.
But they are also sufficient to meet the needs of tens of thousands of people for free activity and living.
Lin Xuan rode the purple golden gourd, and in just two or three minutes, he arrived at Modu University's sky island campus.
In front of the Modu University sky island campus gate was a huge plaza.
There were three large teleportation arrays there, responsible for teleportation between the island and the land.
Of course, there were also many flying mounts similar to griffins and cranes in the plaza.
Like taxis, waiting for passengers.
Today is Sunday.
At this time, many students were going in and out.
Lin Xuan had sent a message to Brother Xu before coming.
Before even landing, he saw his brother waiting in the plaza.
The purple golden gourd slowly descended.
Brother Xu looked startled and said in surprise, "Xiao Xuan, is this your 7th Order flying mount?!"
"That's right," Lin Xuan jumped off the purple golden gourd, patted it, and said with a smile, "How about it, isn't it cool?"
"Cool, it's really damn cool!" Xu Shan couldn't help but curse, circling the purple golden gourd several times.
"This thing isn't cheap."
"Not only is it expensive, but it's also very rare."
"For students like us, being able to own a 5th Order mount is already considered a rich kid."
"Throughout Modu University, the number of students who own flying mounts doesn't exceed the fingers of both hands!"
Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow.
It seemed he had indeed underestimated the rarity of 7th Order mounts.
Xu Shan's tone was shocked, his face full of disbelief.
He and Lin Xuan had been very close relatives and friends since childhood.
He never expected that after just one job change and three months,
His cousin would be like a changed person.
Lin Xuan smiled and didn't say much.
He gently patted the purple golden gourd.
The purple golden gourd rapidly shrunk in size, transforming into a purple stream of light that entered Lin Xuan's body.
Seeing this, Xu Shan showed a hint of envy and quickly said,
"Come on, Xiao Xuan, I'll take you around Modu's sky island."
"Our Modu is different from Mingzhu; Mingzhu University only allows access to the sky island campus after advancing to the inner courtyard."
"Whereas in Modu, all students except freshmen are here..."
"..."
When they left Modu, it was already nearing noon.
After Lin Xuan experienced Modu University's specialty dishes in the Modu cafeteria,
He handed the life water to his brother.
Now, he felt like a weight had been lifted from his mind.
Although he was a transmigrator,
The feelings he experienced after the college entrance examination were real.
After seeing his aunt lose her eyesight,
There had always been a knot in his heart.
Now, Lin Xuan felt incredibly relieved.
He rode the purple golden gourd all the way back to Mingzhu University.
At this time, the rules and specific start time for the Freshmen Tournament had already been released.
Since there were only two participants this year, the Freshmen Tournament was changed from the original three different competition formats to a single arena match.
The goal was to conclude the competition in one match!
