Training

"I've prepared your birthday gift," Gu Qingshan changed the subject.

"Ah! I want a gift! When will you give it to me? I want to see it soon!" Su Xue'er, who was regretting her slip of the tongue, cheered up again upon hearing this.

"Are you free tonight?"

"Yes, the recommended students are just here to familiarize themselves with the campus and meet the teachers in advance. In fact, we're very free every day."

"Okay, I'll find you tonight."

"Then I'll wait for you."

As Su Xue'er spoke, she felt that her last sentence was too forward, and with a flushed face, she quickly closed the communicator.

Gu Qingshan smiled silently and continued to fiddle with the communicator.

"Goddess of Justice?"

"I am here. I have noticed your conversation. The Seraph form one test is complete, and form two testing is in progress."

"Can you not eavesdrop on my privacy?"

"Please rest assured, the Goddess of Justice will not interfere with anyone's right to love."

"That's not what I meant, I mean don't eavesdrop."

"According to the personal will of citizen Gu Qingshan, Su Xue'er is added to the list of secret connection figures, and security monitoring is lifted."

"...What were we talking about just now? Oh right, I want the Seraph."

"The test is not complete, are you sure you want to give the Seraph to Su Xue'er as a gift?"

"Yes, you can rest assured, I have tested several forms."

I've tested them all in my previous life, Gu Qingshan added in his heart.

"Seraph is being prepared."

"Su Xue'er has been added to the Federation's list of key protected individuals."

"The Seraph will be ready in three hours."

"Very good, thank you."

Gu Qingshan disconnected.

For some reason, recently, Gu Qingshan didn't even need to submit an application, and he could connect to the Goddess of Justice at any time.

Probably because I've become someone close to the President, so the Goddess is paying extra attention to me, Gu Qingshan thought silently.

In his previous life, he left the Federation early and went to the Fuxi Empire, and never had much contact with the Goddess of Justice, so he was not familiar with the Goddess of Justice's processing mechanism.

He took a cold shower, changed into clean clothes, and left the room.

There was still a morning of free time, which he could use to hone his skills.

Gu Qingshan inquired at the hotel front desk and quickly learned that a sports club had an archery hall.

Archery is a noble sport—in this era, cold weapons have almost all become elegant sports.

In other words, the cost would definitely not be cheap.

Gu Qingshan suddenly remembered that he should check how many credit points he had left.

The President was sponsoring his studies, but he was not a greedy person who wanted to reach out for everything.

Gu Qingshan picked up his personal Light Brain and brought up his personal interface.

"Well, there are still 19,200 credit points, if I save a little, it should be enough for a while."

This was all the money he had saved from working part-time in high school, originally intended to pay for his first year of university tuition.

Gu Qingshan's eyes scanned the Light Brain screen, and suddenly stopped at one place.

Personal Merit Points: 799873957281439 points.

Gu Qingshan was stunned, and subconsciously patted the Light Brain.

On the Light Brain, that line of numbers remained unchanged.

"This Light Brain has been used for seven or eight years, and today it finally has a problem."

He sighed silently.

When making the battle armor for Su Xue'er, he spent 2,000 Personal Merit Points to ask the Goddess of Justice for assistance, leaving him with almost nothing.

So such an astronomical figure was probably due to a problem with the Light Brain.

Or was it the goddess's reward for his skills?

It's still uncertain, he'll ask the Goddess of Justice about it later.

Gu Qingshan walked out of the hotel and boarded a sky bus.

Half an hour later.

Gu Qingshan squeezed out of the crowded sky bus, staggering a few steps to steady himself on the street.

"The Capital is different, there are so many people."

Gu Qingshan wiped the sweat from his forehead, and turned his head to see the sign of a sports club.

Starry Sky Club.

Gu Qingshan stepped inside, and several receptionists immediately came up to greet him.

"Good morning, sir, do you have a membership card?" one of the receptionists asked politely.

"No, this is my first time here," Gu Qingshan said truthfully.

The receptionist stepped back, and a woman who looked like a manager came up.

The woman's eyes swept over him lightly, and her attitude became indifferent.

Gu Qingshan was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and black casual pants today. Although he looked clean, the edges of his clothes were worn, making him look very plain.

To conceal the Night Rain Bow and Storage Bag, he also carried a long bow case.

The female manager greeted people every day, and her eyes were very sharp. She knew at a glance that this was a poor student.

"The free trial area is on the right, basement level two."

The female manager shifted her gaze, withdrew her smile, and said casually.

"Where is the archery hall?" Gu Qingshan asked.

"Archery hall?"

The female manager suddenly smiled.

Archery has always been favored by the nobles.

A slightly better set of archery equipment costs at least tens of thousands of credits, and if you want a custom-made good bow, you need to prepare at least 500,000 credits.

Ordinary people simply don't have the financial resources to buy dedicated archery equipment.

Even renting the archery hall's public archery equipment is based on a three-month standard, which also costs a lot.

"Sir, do you have your own bow? If not, we can sell it here."

She believed that this sentence would dispel the other party's wishful thinking.

"Yes, I have a bow, I just need a place to practice my skills," Gu Qingshan nodded.

The Capital is simply a steel Jungle, and it's really hard to find a place to display and practice skills.

"The archery hall is at the back of the club, you need to go through two venues, would you like me to take you there?"

"Then I'll trouble you," Gu Qingshan said.

"This way, please."

She led Gu Qingshan through the equipment area, the swimming pool, and finally to an automatic door.

She quietly took two steps back and said with a smile, "We're here, sir, please come in."

"Ah, okay," Gu Qingshan walked to the door.

The door remained closed.

Gu Qingshan pushed it, but the door was locked.

He turned to look at the female manager.

The female manager said with an indifferent expression, "To enter the archery hall, you need to use the Light Brain to verify your personal information and meet certain requirements."

Gu Qingshan said with a troubled expression, "My Light Brain seems to have some problems, how about we forget about it today?"

The female manager smiled silently and said, "Why not give it a try? Maybe the verification will be successful?"

She waved her hand, and several security guards next to her immediately surrounded him.

Seeing this, Gu Qingshan misunderstood.

Under normal circumstances, not verifying personal information meant either being a fugitive or a vagrant, and there must be something wrong.

He shook his head and had no choice but to take out his personal Light Brain and turn on the wireless verification connection.

Ding!

"Verification passed."

"Welcome, esteemed sir, your arrival is an honor for the entire Starry Sky Club."

An electronic synthesized voice sounded, with a hint of humility and respect.

These were all pre-set voices, and different people would receive different welcome messages.

The archery hall door opened and receded to both sides.

"Sir, please come in."

The female manager instantly changed her attitude and smiled warmly.

She was professional in this regard.

The security guards were all shrewd, and upon seeing this, they all bowed and silently retreated.

Inside the archery hall, two staff members jogged up to greet him and bowed ninety degrees to Gu Qingshan.

"Welcome, please come this way."
