At the Wu Tan City plaza, all the students who passed the enrollment requirements and the recruitment staff gathered together.
Once the number of people was confirmed, Mentor Ruo Lin stepped in front of the crowd.
With her arms crossed, she spoke sternly, “First of all, congratulations again for standing out and earning the qualification to practice with us at Jia Nan Academy.
However, do not be too proud.
There are countless talented individuals at Jia Nan Academy.
None of you have the right to be arrogant yet.
Remember, work hard to improve your strength; that is what you should be doing at your age.”
“Alright, enough talk.
You’ll understand some things for yourselves once we reach Jia Nan Academy.
Follow me!” After Ruo Lin finished speaking, she waved her hand and turned to lead the way.
The crowd crossed the market and followed Ruo Lin and the senior students to a grassy field outside the city.
“I will summon the flying mounts of Jia Nan Academy.
Don’t panic; the mounts raised by the academy won’t attack people randomly.” After Ruo Lin said that, she took out a jade flute.
With a blow of her lips, a clear and melodic sound spread far away.
After waiting for a while, small black dots appeared in the sky.
As they drew closer, it became clear they were bird-shaped.
In a moment, several giant avian monsters swept out of the forest and landed in front of the crowd.
The wind whistled as the massive air currents kicked up a large amount of dust.
The crowd had no choice but to raise their hands to cover their faces.
After these avian monsters landed, their giant bird faces stared straight at everyone.
This scene terrified the new students, who retreated one after another.
Even Xiao Ling let out a drop of cold sweat.
Although he had anticipated it, it was still very novel to see such large creatures for the first time.
He shook his head: “This is a fantasy world; you can’t compare them with animals from my previous world.”
Probing slightly with his soul power, although these monsters looked very massive, their aura was around Tier 3.
Monsters specifically used as mounts were indeed very large.
“Truly worthy of Jia Nan Academy.
Its foundation is so deep.
They use Tier 3 flying monsters just for recruitment.
Once I breakthrough to Battle King and can fly, I’ll catch one to keep by my side.
Riding a Taixu Ancient Dragon loli would be very impressive, right?” Thinking of this, he wanted to enter the Jia Nan Inner Academy even sooner.
The new students looked exactly like they did back then.
“Don’t be afraid.
These flying monsters are very gentle.
We will ride them back to the academy.” Ruo Lin turned and looked at the performance of the new students.
Seeing that Xiao Ling showed no fear, she nodded.
Being younger than the others yet having more courage, she couldn’t help but be more satisfied.
As soon as she finished speaking, Ruo Lin circulated her Battle Qi, jumped up, and landed on the back of a flying monster.
She spoke again: “Everyone, come up.
We need to set off.”
Hearing this, the students nodded.
First, the senior students jumped onto the giant birds, using Battle Qi to stabilize themselves, looking very dashing.
Then Xiao Ling also jumped onto a nearby bird and landed steadily.
Finally, the other new students, all very careful and trembling, jumped up.
Once everyone was on, the flying monsters spread their wide wings, leaped up, flapped, and flew into the sky.
As the flying monsters flew higher and higher, watching Wu Tan City become small beneath them and hearing the wind whistling past his ears, Xiao Ling closed his eyes, experiencing the feeling of being in the air.
His heart was stirred.
“Before long, I will also be able to soar through the sky on my own.” Although Battle King was a realm many people couldn’t reach in their entire lives, Xiao Ling believed he could do it.
Battle King was just a starting point.
Returning to the room arranged by the mentor and sitting on the bed, Xiao Ling cleared his mind and called up the system panel.
“System, open my personal panel.”
[Ding!
Host’s personal panel is opening automatically]
Host: Xiao Ling Gender: Male Cultivation: 1-Star Battle Practitioner Battle Qi Attribute: Fire (mixed with a trace of Wood) Technique: Flame Mantra, Tai Yi Soul Art Flame: Tier 4 Peach Blossom Flame Battle Skill: Vacuum Palm (Mysterious Low), Fissure Claw Strike (Yellow Middle), Mountain Splitting Palm (Yellow Middle), Rock Crushing Palm (Yellow Middle) Items: Twenty-Four Bridge Moonlit Night, Tier 4 Earth Rock Turtle Beast Flame, Tier 4 Deep Sea Flood Dragon Beast Flame, Tier 6 Blazing Wolf Beast Flame, Super Luck Card, Shocking Aphrodisiac Pill, Infinite Coke Bottle…
Extraction Chances: 4
Looking at the remaining four extraction chances, Xiao Ling spoke: “System, use the extraction four times.”
[Ding!
System extracting…
Congratulations to the host for extracting the essence seed of an 8-tailed Fire Fox beast flame.]
[Ding!
Congratulations to the host for extracting the 100,000-year Blue Silver Empress trunk bone from Douluo Continent.]
[Ding!
System extracting…
Congratulations to the host for extracting a map of a Battle Venerable ruin in the Battle Qi Continent.]
[Ding!
System extracting…
Congratulations to the host for extracting a Rayquaza egg from the Pokémon world.]
Xiao Ling thought of it and opened the system warehouse, beginning to check the item descriptions one by one.
[Essence seed of an 8-tailed Fire Fox beast flame: From a long-dead 8-tailed Fire Fox in the Ancient Wasteland Region; its energy is severely depleted.]
Seeing it was an 8-tailed beast flame with low energy, Xiao Ling was very satisfied.
Just right, Flame Mantra was at a low level and needed flames to evolve.
This kind of high-quality but low-energy flame was perfect; too much energy might have burned him to death.
[100,000-year Blue Silver Empress trunk bone: The soul bone left behind after the previous generation Blue Silver Empress fell in a heavenly tribulation.]
“Since it’s the bone of the previous generation, the current Blue Silver Empress should still be A Yin.
I wonder if that little brat has been born yet.”
[Battle Venerable Ruin Map: Built by a Battle Venerable expert before death a thousand years ago.
Passed down to descendants, but no one has been able to activate it.
Requires soul power to reach the Mortal Realm Great Perfection.]
With a wave of his hand, an old piece of paper fell into his hand.
Xiao Ling looked closely and saw only a pill furnace on it.
It seemed this Battle Venerable was an alchemist in life.
Releasing his soul perception to the maximum, he felt a powerful restriction and couldn’t help but shake his head.
His soul power wasn’t enough yet; he’d look for it when he reached the requirement.
Tucking away the map, he continued to the last item description.
[Rayquaza Egg: After hatching, you can tame a Rayquaza.
It is a super-ancient Pokémon that lives in the ozone layer.
Due to world differences, it can practice but cannot transform into human form.]
Xiao Ling’s eyes lit up.
He hadn’t expected to get a cool mount just when he wanted one.
Truly getting a pillow right when he was sleepy.
