Ling Yi was somewhat bewildered upon hearing Xiang Wanxiong's words.
"If you don't participate in the tournament, won't you get any results?"
" Taibian College never looks at students' grades," Xiang Wanxiong said with a smile.
"Then, where is Taibian College located? How do I get there?"
Generally, after being admitted to a university, students will have a three-month vacation, after which they will be transported to the university by airship.
"Haha!" Xiang Wanxiong and Wu Hong both laughed.
"All I can tell you is that Taibian College is in Eastern Peak. As for how you get there, that's your own business. If you can't get into Taibian College within three months, you'll be considered to have failed to enroll."
"Furthermore, I'd like to inform you that once you choose to attend Taibian University, all your student records will be deleted."
"In other words, if you fail, you will lose your eligibility for admission to other universities."
"Whether you go or not is your choice."
Can I not go? Of course not, the main system quest is there, I definitely have to go.
This admission method is just too bizarre!
"I choose the Taibian!"
Upon hearing Ling Yi's choice, both of them laughed.
"Oh, right, there's one more thing I wanted to tell you. Because you and Lin Xiaoxiao were the ones who discovered that Seventh Pin black hole, you won't face any restrictions if you go there to improve your strength."
Ling Yi clasped his Fist Dao, "Lord Xiang, Old Wu, thank you."
Regardless, both of them genuinely cared for him, and he deserves our gratitude.
Especially Wu Hong, who was his responsible homeroom teacher for several years, imparting knowledge, guiding him, and resolving his doubts, deserves even more gratitude.
But now that I'm gone, I don't know when we'll meet again.
"Alright, enough with the fuss. Hurry back and get ready. We're leaving tomorrow morning!" Wu Hong waved and laughed.
"By the way, before you leave, you can ask Lin Xiaoxiao and the others. If they're willing, they can also leave with you tomorrow morning."
Oh, is admission to Taibian College really that easy? You can even bring people in?
Watching Ling Yi's departing figure, Wu Hong said worriedly, "I'm not worried about whether Ling Yi can get into Taibian University, but I'm a little worried about Jiang Yan from Sea City."
"He has no chance!" Xiang Wanxiong said with a sneer.
Wu Hong was taken aback for a moment, then laughed and said, "Everyone thinks you, Xiang Wanxiong, are a Reckless Man who can't tolerate any wrongdoing, but who would have thought that you're actually a scoundrel too?"
Xiang Wanxiong rolled his eyes and said, "It's true that I'm Reckless Man and I can't tolerate any nonsense, but who says that Reckless Man can't use some tricks?"
"However, that Zhao Tuohai is no simple character. On the surface, he's just Magic Cultivation, but in reality, he's likely a cultivator of multiple elemental systems. Be careful."
"After all, he is the city lord of Sea City. Sea City is the city with the best resources and the most powerful people among the twelve cities, with more than ten Fourth Realm experts alone."
"He cultivates five aspects: demonic energy, physical body, soul, and stars. Especially his Star Cultivation, which has reached the Sixth Tier of the Planetary Realm. He is indeed an extraordinary existence."
" Uncle Xiang is here this time too. He has absolutely no secrets from Uncle Xiang," Xiang Wanxiong said disdainfully.
"Oh, Uncle Xiang, then it's alright." Wu Hong said with a slight smile.
" Zhao Tuohai has quite the ambition. Now that he thinks he has enough strength and influence, he actually wants to replace the Capital City."
Xiang Wanxiong's expression became more serious.
"Moreover, he's not the only one with such thoughts. There's Jiang Yan from Ling City, Gao Qicheng from Great Wind City, and Zhao Tuohai is considered to be hiding it well."
"Like Gao Qicheng, he almost had 'I'm going to rebel' written all over his face."
"These are turbulent times!" Wu Hong said helplessly.
The two were silent for a moment, then Wu Hong changed the subject and asked, "What do you think of Ling Yi? Uncle Xiang must have analyzed Ling Yi, right? Is he Ability User?"
"He's an insulator, not Ability User. He's hiding a huge secret," Xiang Wanxiong said, shaking his head.
"A big secret?" Wu Hong asked, puzzled.
According to Uncle Xiang, every cultivator, regardless of their chosen path, ultimately cultivates energy. With energy, one can be tested for the Dao.
"During offensive and defensive Combat, the energy within the body will undergo corresponding Changes."
"But did you know that Ling Yi's own energy remains basically constant during Combat? In other words, his skills don't utilize his own power."
"It's like it appeared out of thin air, it's incredible."
" Uncle Xiang gave this power a new name: Dimensional Power. According to Uncle Xiang, Ling Yi may have the ability to Borrow the Dimensional Power."
If Ling Yi were here and heard these words, he would definitely give Uncle Xiang a thumbs up.
Although Ling Yi's power wasn't borrowed, strictly speaking, it wasn't his own; rather, it was all skills loaded onto him by the system.
It doesn't invoke his own power; his own power is merely a determining parameter.
For example, the attack and defense stats when Constitution is 4 points, the attack and defense stats when Constitution is 40 points, and the skill power, etc.
If Ling Yi were to rely solely on his current energy, he probably wouldn't even be able to unleash a single round of magic missiles before being drained into a dried-up corpse.
Therefore, it's absolutely true that Ling Yi's power was borrowed.
Of course, you could also say it was stolen or robbed.
"Borrowed power?" Wu Hong frowned.
"That's exactly what Uncle Xiang is worried about. We should give this kid a heads-up once we get back to Taibian!"
"That's true."
There's no such thing as a free lunch. What you borrow must be returned. But who did Ling Yi borrow from, and how should he return it? That's what Wu Hong should be worried about.
Okay, the earlier guesses were fairly reliable, but the later ones were just pure worrying.
After a pause, Wu Hong said with some anticipation, "I wonder if Ling Yi will be surprised to see us on the Taibian."
On the other side, Ling Yi had just stepped out of the school gate when he automatically took a step back and saw Chai Zhiwei staggering past him.
After regaining his footing, he said with a frustrated expression, " Boss Ling, I couldn't even Sneak Attack you! Damn it, Boss, don't be impulsive, we're on the same side!"
The Sneak Attack Sneak Attack, but the system had already determined that he had been attacked. A Light Ball began to condense above Ling Yi's head, Black Dragon began to emerge from his body, and a semi-transparent blue Magic Shield was also placed on him.
Good heavens, Chai Zhiwei was dumbfounded when he saw this.
He knew the power of Ling Yi's skill; if it landed on him, he would definitely be gone.
Fortunately, Ling Yi forcibly terminated the passive skill.
The magic bullet dimmed, the Black Dragon slowly disappeared, and the Magic Shield shattered.
Ling Yi was also terrified; if he had been any slower, Old Chai would have been dead.
"System, can you add a function to disable passive skills? This guy's just making a joke and he takes it all on! Does he even care about being friends?!"
"What will you do if you get a girlfriend later? According to your logic, even a kiss would be considered an assault, that's way too much."
Ling Yi mentally screamed in frustration.
"Ding, the system is performing a judgment. Judgment successful. The host's suggestion has been adopted. A new module is being generated. Please check the system interface."
Huh? Ling Yi's eyes lit up, and he quickly opened the system.
A third page appeared in the system interface, and the content of the third page was the [ Enemy and Friend List ]. After opening this list, it was divided into two lists: [Friends] and [Enemies].
According to the instructions below, you can only add someone to your [Friends] list if your Affection towards them is 60 or higher.
However, there are no restrictions on the [enemy] list.
In comparison, the [Enemy] list is quite domineering; even if Affection reaches the maximum of 100, they can still be placed in the [Enemy] list.
"System, there's a problem with this setting." Ling Yi was overjoyed, but he still discovered the problem with the setting.
"You should implement an automatic rating system. Affection shouldn't only have positive values; they should also have negative values. As long as the Affection isn't negative, it should be automatically added to the [Friend] list."
"Those with negative Affection are automatically added to the [enemy] list. Furthermore, Affection is not static; it needs to be automatically adjusted if it Changes."
"Ding, in process of judgment, judgment valid, updated."
The system works!
Ling Yi realized that his understanding of the system was still somewhat one-sided. Although the system didn't have Wisdom spirit, it was obedient.
"System, couldn't you put a toggle button on passive skills? So they could be turned off when not in use and on again when needed!"
"Ding, system judgment in progress, judgment failed!"
Wait, why is that? You can add the [ Enemy and Friend List ] on the third page, but you can't even do this one small change?
I was just praising you!
" Ling Yi, Ling Yi!"
Just then, Ling Yi heard Chai Zhiwei calling his name.
"Huh? What's wrong?" Ling Yi asked, snapping out of her daze.
"What's wrong with you? I've been calling you for ages and you haven't responded," Chai Zhiwei asked.
"I was just thinking about something. Oh, right, to verify something, punch me now!"
In the [ Enemy and Friend List ], all five of Lin Xiaoxiao have appeared on the [Friends] list, indicating that their Affection towards her is over 60!
"No!" Chai Zhiwei shook his head like a rattle-drum.
Good heavens, that scene was terrifying; he doesn't want to face it again.
At this moment, Bai Hai stepped forward and asked, " Boss Ling, do you want to test your control over the skill?"
Ling Yi gave him a thumbs up, saying, "Look at how smart he is, he grasped the key point right away."
After receiving Ling Yi's affirmative answer, Bai Hai punched Ling Yi, but the punch was not very powerful; Bai Hai barely used any force.
Nothing happened; the system setting took effect.
Seeing that Ling Yi was able to perfectly control his skills, Chai Zhiwei's eyes lit up and he said, "I'll do it! I'll do it!"
"Get out of my way! I told you to hit me earlier, but you didn't. Now you don't have a chance!"
Seeing Chai Zhiwei's eager expression, Ling Yi said quietly, "If you make a move now, I don't mind letting the Black Dragon crawl into your groin."
Chai Zhiwei froze for a moment, then shuddered, took a few steps back, and chuckled awkwardly, "Cough cough, no, no way, don't talk nonsense."
Seeing Chai Zhiwei's funny expression, everyone couldn't help but laugh.
"Oh, right, there's something I need to tell you." Ling Yi's smile faded.
After everyone looked at him, Ling Yi told them that he was going to Taibian College Taibian College that he could take them with him.
"I'll go with you!" Lin Xiaoxiao was the first to agree.
" Taibian College? Even Old Wu and City Lord Xiang recommended it, so I definitely have to go and check it out," Gao Yuntian said with a smile.
"It looks really exciting!"
