Chapter 119: Dormitory
Chapter 119: Dormitory
"This little guy has quite a temper..."
High above in the clouds, teachers from Blue Star University observed the stage, occasionally grading the students.
When Nie Ying saw Fang Xing destroy his opponent's face with a single punch, he couldn't help but smile. "He seems to have experienced quite a few life-and-death battles... That's excellent. Our previous students lacked this fighting spirit."
"The principal is right..."
The other teachers chimed in, "This Fang Xing, despite his cyborg origins, has achieved great success with the Dragon Elephant Technique. His Great Vajra Wisdom Power is also quite impressive. Add to that the Tiger Suppression Stake and Great Dragon Stake, and we can say that every step he's taken has been exceptionally solid, with an incredibly strong foundation. When he forms the Dragon and Tiger Golden Pill, if he can attain enlightenment, he will be able to harmonize yin and yang and cultivate the 'Indestructible Divine Power of the Dragon Elephant Vajra.' There's hope for him to achieve seven revolutions of the Golden Pill in the future."
With Fang Xing's current performance, some teachers already acknowledged his potential to break through to the Vajra Realm!
"A child prodigy doesn't guarantee adult success," another teacher shook his head. "The path of martial arts is a steep climb, and while this Fang student will likely have no issues advancing during his university years, the Golden Pill stage of martial arts has stumped countless geniuses. To achieve a high-quality Golden Pill, one will also need abundant resources... Compared to Fang Xing, I have higher hopes for Gu Jiantong. Now, this Gu student truly has overflowing talent, possessing the top-tier 'Light Transformation' ability, along with a strong background and support. His future prospects are limitless."
"Mhm, among the martial arts examinees this time, these two are the strongest. Let's first watch their final battle, and then we'll move on to the other examination venues."
Nie Ying slowly nodded.
...
Fang Xing's hand formed a knife, moving like a ghost or a god, as a brilliant blade of light soared into the sky.
On the opposite side, an examinee wielding a long spear had blood flowing from his mouth and nose, relentlessly hacked by blade after blade of light, forcing him off the stage.
Even with visible white bones on his fingers and having already fainted, he still stood tall and erect, as straight as a spear.
"That willpower is indeed admirable!"
Fang Xing couldn't help but give a thumbs-up.
The examinees he encountered in the school exam were all proud sons of heaven, possibly even the top in the galaxy!
Although he seemed to finish off his opponents in just a few moves, it still consumed some of his energy.
"Winning so many times in a row, you must be guaranteed a spot, right?"
As he was pondering, his opponent changed again, and it was Gu Jiantong with eyebrows that seemed to burn like golden flames!
"Hmm? It's finally your turn!"
A delighted smile appeared on Gu Jiantong's face when he saw Fang Xing. "Hahaha... If I can't beat you, my victory won't be complete. Come on... I must beat you to achieve the highest step by step."
'Who do you think you are, Zhao Gao?'
Fang Xing rolled his eyes, his body moving.
He was fast! But Gu Jiantong was faster!
In an instant, the two were in the center of the stage, their fists and palms colliding in a flurry of strikes.
Rumble!
The hard stage was plowed through, leaving it in a mess.
Whoosh!
Gu Jiantong flicked his finger, and a ray of light shot out, so fast that there was almost no reaction time.
Boom!
Fang Xing raised his arm to block, feeling a slight pain in his arm.
That ray of light carried scorching heat, melting away his layers of dragon scale armor and leaving a white mark on his arm.
"Hmm? Being able to penetrate my defense is something to be proud of."
Fang Xing lowered his arm and chuckled.
"I've never met someone who could pretend better than me."
Gu Jiantong roared, and a gleam seemed to shine from his eyes and mouth: "Enough of this boring testing."
A white-hot sun illusion appeared, enveloping the entire stage!
"A prototype of the Light Domain?"
Feeling the light coming from all directions and pouring into his body, Fang Xing let out a soft shout, and clouds appeared.
Clouds come from the dragon, and wind from the tiger!
- Dragon and Tiger Domain Prototype!
Although the dragon and tiger couldn't perfectly cooperate yet, it still represented his astonishing achievements in these two realms of intent.
Roar!
Amidst the dragon's roar and tiger's howl, the illusions of a dragon and a tiger appeared, seemingly wanting to tear apart the pure white sun.
The two domain prototypes clashed, constantly eroding each other.
And in the depths of the light, Fang Xing seemed to be wearing a golden-threaded jade garment, continuously exchanging blows with Gu Jiantong.
Gu Jiantong's movements were incredibly swift, and he occasionally unleashed light attacks that left numerous white marks on Fang Xing.
"Gotcha..."
Suddenly, a smile appeared on Fang Xing's lips, and his large hand reached out, like a dragon and tiger making a big grab. He grabbed the light in front of him and clasped Gu Jiantong's shoulder, "My horizontal training is powerful. Even if I take a few of your light blasts, I'll be fine... But what about you? How many of my punches can you take!"
His other arm clenched into a fist, and a flash of golden light appeared in his eyes.
- Great Vajra Wisdom Power, doubled!
Bang!
A figure flew backward at high speed—Gu Jiantong!
He lay on the ground, struggling to turn over, staring at the drifting clouds in the sky, "Damn... If this were the outside world, I would've won for sure!"
His 'Light Transformation' ability was not yet fully developed, and currently, he could only gain various enhancements under the radiance of a star.
But this was a virtual space, and no one would simulate stellar radiance for him.
"Maybe..."
Fang Xing gave an ambiguous response.
Through this battle, he had learned a lot.
At the very least, his strength was not overwhelmingly superior to these peers of his!
Not to mention... if Gu Jiantong was this strong, what about Gu Zhen?
"Alright, for this Budo martial arts assessment, the top freshman is... Fang Xing! The following is the list of accepted students: Fang Xing, Gu Jiantong, Dilisi..."
Wei Shentong's figure appeared, and without sparing a glance at the defeated Gu Jiantong on the ground, he slowly began to announce the successful candidates.
...
Ding!
The virtual cabin opened, and Fang Xing stepped out to find his communicator inundated with messages.
【Blue Star Federation 2nd-grade citizen, Fang Xing... Congratulations on your acceptance into the Budo program at Blue Star University (10-year curriculum)!】
【Your iris pattern, qi, and blood information have been entered into the 'Omnibrain' system, granting you access to most of Blue Star University's privileges...】
【You have been granted a Blue Star residency, a map of the university, and a freshman handbook...】
"A ten-year university program, huh?"
Fang Xing muttered to himself.
Passing the entrance exam for Blue Star University had elevated his status and position significantly! He felt a bit dazed by it all.
"In a few days, it'll be my 19th birthday..."
"Finally, I've achieved my dream of getting into university as an adult..."
At least, he didn't have to worry about being sent straight to the battlefield anymore.
As he sighed, he glanced around and noticed that many of the virtual cabins were still operating, indicating that Zhong Yuxiu and the others were still in the midst of their exams.
After a while, students began to emerge from their cabins, some with excitement and joy, while most looked exceptionally dejected.
"So frustrating... I was so close to making it."
Zhong Yuxiu stepped out of her cabin, her eyes glistening with unshed tears. "It's not good enough... I need to prepare even better. If I can't get into Blue Star University, I'll aim for Saint Armor University... If that doesn't work out, I'll have to take the entrance exam for War University."
War University wasn't a top-tier university, but it was one of the best among the first-class colleges.
Most candidates who failed to get into the top-tier universities would opt to take the War University entrance exam.
Before long, Qi Lingzhen and Li Yu also emerged from their exams.
They were both lucky to have been accepted into Blue Star University.
"Boo hoo... Sister Qi, I don't want to be separated from you."
Zhong Yuxiu's eyes turned red again when she learned of their differing results.
"You should aim for Saint Armor University. That way, we can still meet up in the virtual space."
Qi Lingzhen quickly comforted her.
...
After Zhong Yuxiu and the other unsuccessful candidates reluctantly left, Nie Ying looked at the remaining students with a smile. "Welcome, everyone, to Blue Star University. The semester begins on September 1st. I'd like to share some information about the school's benefits. Firstly, you have all been granted Blue Star residencies, which give you permanent residency rights on the planet... Additionally, as renting outside the university can be quite expensive, the student dormitories are now open to you. Each student's bedroom will be equipped with a 'Holographic Virtual Cabin' with networking capabilities... We are currently optimizing this aspect, and in the future, you may be able to use your cabins to attend lectures from Saint Armor University and Jiu Jian University virtually... As for your teachers and counselors, they will be announced together on the first day of school."
"And with that... we conclude today's proceedings!"
After Nie Ying finished speaking, he strode away, followed by the other teachers.
"That's... it?"
The remaining candidates were left a little dazed.
"Hmph... He's a Martial Saint, with countless matters to attend to. The fact that he came to preside over the entrance exams is already a huge honor for us."
Gu Jiantong lifted his chin. "Can't you read your communicator? The Omnibrain has already arranged everything!"
His arrogance incited angry glares from many of those present.
"What? You want to fight? Come on, then. I'll make it worth your while... Let me tell you, I earned the title of Chief of Yu Ling Star with my fists, beating everyone who stood in my way."
Gu Jiantong crossed his arms and glared at the crowd, showing no trace of his earlier defeat at Fang Xing's hands.
...
Fang Xing didn't bother with them and left the gymnasium.
Along the way, he occasionally passed a few Blue Star University students, most of whom were young but exuded an unfathomable aura.
"This place is truly extraordinary..."
He opened the digital map and located the freshman dormitory area.
Blue Star University was like a small city, and the freshman dormitory area was an unimaginably vast complex.
Neat and uniform three-story villas were scattered across the area, each occupying a large area of about one mu, with elegant and exquisite interiors.
'Each freshman gets their own villa, with absolute privacy. Even the Omnibrain isn't authorized to spy without permission...'
'That makes sense. Aside from Budo students needing ample space to practice, alchemists and mecha engineers require laboratories and personal workshops... This amount of space might not even be enough later on.'
Fang Xing located his residence, a three-story villa with a red roof, an open-air balcony, a swimming pool, and a training ground.
【Ding! Iris verification successful... Freshman Fang Xing, welcome to your new dormitory...】
He gripped the doorknob, and a mechanical voice sounded from the cat-eye scanner, accompanied by a flash of light.
Click!
The villa door swung open, and Fang Xing stepped inside, eager to explore his new home. He soon made his way to the master bedroom, where he found the 'Holographic Simulation Cabin' waiting for him.
