183: On the subway, someone was showing off in front of Su Jun?
Five days later.
“Is this Magic City Base?
It’s certainly prosperous!”
“This is still the outskirts of Magic City Base, yet we can occasionally see skyscrapers.
I estimate there will be many tall buildings once we reach the central area!”
Lin Xiaojian and the other prodigies from Jianglin Base discussed animatedly.
Su Jun looked at the dazzling array of shops below, the clean environment, and the soldiers patrolling from time to time, nodding in approval.
Magic City Base truly lived up to its reputation as the number one base in the Southeast District.
It was indeed different.
After entering Magic City Base, the military aircraft landed at the airport.
Unless there was a special mission,
military aircraft were prohibited from flying over Magic City Base.
“Su Jun, the subway station is eight hundred meters ahead.
We can take the subway and get off at the University City stop.
Azure Dragon Academy’s shuttle bus is waiting there.”
Liu Ruyan handed Su Jun a map and explained slowly.
Su Jun, Lin Xiaojian, and the others went to the ticket counter to buy tickets.
Since many people were coming to Magic City Base for university at this time,
their seats were quite scattered.
Everyone was separated.
“Ice Leaf, see you at the University City entrance.”
“Okay.”
Su Jun went to his carriage.
He sat down according to his seat number.
Soon, three people took seats.
Two females and one male.
Judging by the luggage they carried,
the three were also students coming to Magic City Base for school.
“Two beauties, from the looks of it, you’re all here to study at Magic City Base.
May I ask which school you’re attending?
My name is Chen Qiang, and I’m attending Modu University of Science and Technology!”
After Chen Qiang finished speaking,
he proudly took out his admission letter.
The plump female was surprised, “Modu University of Science and Technology?
That’s one of the top twenty universities in Magic City Base.”
Modu University of Science and Technology certainly couldn't compare to the Four Great Academies of Qinglong, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise.
However, it was still highly ranked within Magic City Base.
It primarily focused on researching and forging weapons for Martial Grandmasters, or other instruments.
The more beautiful female was named Xia Yuwei.
After hearing about Modu University of Science and Technology, her expression remained calm.
Chen Qiang thought Xia Yuwei was surprised by him, and his face showed a smug expression.
“Both of you, may I ask your names?”
“My name is Chen Lili, and this is my good friend Xia Yuwei.”
The plump female introduced them quite warmly.
“Both beauties have wonderful names.
Especially Xia Yuwei’s name, it’s very poetic.”
Chen Qiang stared directly at Xia Yuwei.
As soon as he got on the train, he was attracted by Xia Yuwei’s unique aura.
He had been wondering how to strike up a conversation with Xia Yuwei.
Now that they were sitting together,
it was truly heaven’s help.
After Xia Yuwei heard Chen Qiang’s compliment,
she showed no reaction.
Soon, she noticed Su Jun beside her.
He was resting his chin on his hand, looking out the window.
His handsome face carried a faint melancholic aura.
This made Xia Yuwei’s eyes light up.
At the same time, she inwardly let out a soft “hmm.”
In the past, none of the males who saw her could maintain their composure.
But it seemed this person in front of her was different...
Chen Qiang saw Xia Yuwei paying attention to Su Jun.
He felt annoyed inside.
However, with the goddess Xia Yuwei present, he couldn’t lose his composure.
“Classmate, are you also here to study at Magic City Base?”
Su Jun nodded indifferently, “Yes.”
Chen Qiang immediately showed off his admission letter.
“Classmate, I was admitted to Modu University of Science and Technology.
May I ask which university you were admitted to?
If our schools are close, we could even interact?”
What Chen Qiang said was very fake.
So fake that Su Jun couldn't even be bothered to expose it.
He clearly wanted to show off his superiority in front of Xia Yuwei.
Why drag him into it?
“An unknown university, not worth mentioning.”
Su Jun answered lazily.
This made Chen Qiang’s lips curl up high.
This guy was so handsome, he thought he got into a good university?
Turns out he was a poor student?
Haha!
Chen Qiang was already overjoyed in his heart.
But on the surface, he still encouraged Su Jun: “Classmate, it doesn’t matter if your exam scores are poor and you didn’t get into a good university.
As long as you work hard, you can still live a wonderful life!”
Chen Qiang felt that he was excellent today.
The demeanor he displayed
would surely make Xia Yuwei have a good impression of him.
But when he looked over, he was a little disappointed.
The plump female looked at him with admiration.
However, Xia Yuwei’s expression was calm.
She didn’t even spare him another glance.
Was the charm he displayed not enough?
He thought for a moment.
Then he began to show off his strengths again.
“Two beauties, my strength has already reached the Primary Martial Grandmaster realm.
Although it’s a bit slow, my teacher said I have boundless prospects in the future…”
Chen Qiang’s words were taken over by the plump female.
Xia Yuwei’s attention, however, was on Su Jun.
Finally, she spoke softly, “I’m sorry, there are many people in the carriage, it’s a bit noisy.”
Su Jun turned his head and glanced at Xia Yuwei.
In the eyes of most people,
this Xia Yuwei was very beautiful.
But to Su Jun, she was rather ordinary.
Xia Yuwei probably couldn’t even compare to Qin Huanhuan.
Let alone Ning Xiyue or Shen Bingye.
“I understand.”
Su Jun answered indifferently.
He turned his head and continued looking out the window.
This made Xia Yuwei secretly frown.
Was her charm not enough?
Xia Yuwei, who was used to males finding all sorts of reasons to strike up conversations with her,
for the first time, doubted herself…
Chen Qiang, seeing this scene from the side,
was very jealous of Su Jun.
“Yuwei, sometimes some poor students are just like that.
You shouldn’t bother with certain poor students.”
Chen Qiang deliberately glanced at Su Jun twice.
Xia Yuwei was very displeased when she heard this.
“Chen Qiang, isn’t it?
Don’t call me Yuwei so intimately, I’m not familiar with you.
Also,
is it meaningful for you to insult this classmate as a poor student for no reason?
Even if someone didn't get into their ideal university, so what?”
Xia Yuwei did not deliberately lower her voice.
Everyone in the carriage turned their gaze to their direction.
This made Chen Qiang very embarrassed.
“I… I was just kindly trying to help you.”
“Thank you, I don’t need it!”
At this moment,
someone happened to walk into this carriage.
“Who is this person? She looks a bit familiar…”
“Yao Ying!
She’s Yao Ying, the Champion who broke Hailin Base’s Wu Exam record!”
“So she’s Yao Ying.
Not only is she beautiful,
she’s also so strong, I’m in love…”
“Brother, why don’t you take a look in the mirror?
Are you worthy of this Yao Ying?”
Yao Ying’s appearance
immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.
The males in the carriage
were now experiencing very strong heartbeats.
Their eyes were fixed on Yao Ying, deeply captivated by her.
In fact,
besides the males,
the females in the compartment were also attracted to Yao Ying.
Her exquisite, flawless appearance,
and her graceful figure,
were all goals they aspired to.
Xia Yuwei was confident in her appearance and figure.
But the moment she saw Yao Ying, she also felt inferior.
“Oh?
Look, Yao Ying is walking towards the table where the argument just happened.”
“Is she a classmate of Xia Yuwei?”
“No, although they are from the same base, they are not classmates.”
Everyone in the carriage showed curiosity.
Xia Yuwei and Chen Qiang also didn't expect Yao Ying to come over.
Their hearts involuntarily sped up.
“Hello, Sister Ying, I’m Xia Yuwei from Hailin Base.”
Xia Yuwei quickly greeted her.
Chen Qiang stammered, “Hello, Sister Ying, I… I am… Chen Qiang.”
Yao Ying paused, then nodded indifferently.
Then, she enthusiastically handed a lunchbox to Su Jun.
“Brother Jun, these are stir-fried beef cubes I made myself, and borscht. Would you like to taste it and see how it is?
If it’s not good, I’ll go make it again…”
