The moment the three light golden diamond-shaped crystals entered Li Yao's body, at the highest point of the Hidden Dragon Pavilion, the illusion on the huge hologram also changed. Thump!
Li Yao's name was overflowing with light, sparkling and shining. After a moment of slight trembling, it unstoppably jumped up and squeezed Zhao Tianchong's name under its butt!
The Hidden Dragon Pavilion first let out a burst of surprised exclamations before falling into a silent silence.
Hundreds of special enrollment students looked at each other in dismay, not knowing how to express their complicated feelings.
Zhao Tianchong stared at Li Yao's name for a long time. His scorching gaze was like two swords that could poke two holes in the hologram.
Half a minute later, the cold sweat on Zhao Tianchong's forehead finally rolled down to his chin. His tense facial muscles relaxed and his gaze changed from fierce to scorching.
It was a kind of scorching heat that came from meeting a worthy opponent.
"Actually..."
Gu Feixuan was stunned for a long time before he said somewhat unwillingly, "When he launched his sprint, there were still four to five hours until the end of the month. Zhao Tianchong, you should have chosen eight to ten theory courses. Even if you spent two hours to read through the textbook and two hours to take the exam, you should have just tried your luck. As long as you hit one or two courses, you wouldn't have let this kid take the first place on the Newcomer Ranking!"
Zhao Tianchong completely recovered his calm. His gaze was neither fierce nor scorching. Instead, it was a kind of indifference. All his emotions were frozen in the depths of his light gray eyes.
He said indifferently, "Perhaps, but is it necessary?"
Gu Feixuan was stunned, "What do you mean? That's the first place on the Newcomer Ranking!"
Zhao Tianchong smiled faintly,
"The first place on the Newcomer Ranking in the first month only shows that Li Yao is good at learning theory. But I grew up in the depths of the Wasteland. Compared to theory, I pay more attention to actual combat!"
"What's the point of fighting to the death in a basic theory course?"
"The future is long. Wait until we enter the actual combat segment. I will absolutely crush him and crush him! "
Gu Feixuan was stunned for a long time. His eyes were also burning with eagerness as he nodded and said,
"You're right. The university life is still very long. Actual combat is the most important. No matter how good you are at theory, you're just a nerd. "
"I'm just afraid that his actual combat skills are as outstanding as his theories. Don't forget, he just awakened, but he already blew up a third level Refinement cultivator."
Lu Tieshan grinned. He stared at Li Yao's name and rubbed his fist. "Teacher Ding Ling Dong really didn't misjudge him. Student Li Yao is indeed a terrifying monster. He is also a formidable opponent worthy of me burning all my fighting spirit! "
"I really want to dissect this monster's brain for research …" Wen Ruorong sighed faintly.
…
Li Yao, who was still immersed in the Wasteland Battle Network, didn't know that the four strongest freshmen of the Hidden Dragon Pavilion had already regarded him as a formidable opponent.
As the clock struck midnight, he firmly stood at the top of the Newcomer Rankings. A thousand glittering diamond-shaped crystals fell from the sky like a downpour, whizzing into his body.
His total credits had reached 1207. Although there was still a long way to go before reaching 40,000 credits, he had taken a solid first step!
"Bang!"
The sound of glass shattering echoed in his ears. The Wasteland Battle Network became even clearer. Around him, seven or eight translucent areas appeared. They were the mission areas. The trading area, the arena area, the specialized course area, and the free exchange area!
From this moment on, he could freely choose the more difficult specialized courses like the senior students. He could complete all kinds of missions. He could even go to the arena and compete with many strong people. Through all kinds of methods, he could crazily sweep his credits!
Li Yao was dazzled. He didn't know where to start, so he licked his lips. Just as he was about to delve into it, a message suddenly popped up in the corner of the battle network.
"Teacher is back? He even bought a second-hand small crafting furnace? "
Li Yao was wild with joy. He hurriedly logged out of the Wasteland Battle Network and madly ran toward a huge building on the other side of the ruins.
This building had a history of over a hundred years. It was originally a warehouse for storing dangerous goods. Therefore, it was particularly sturdy. It was built with double walls, and in the middle was a reinforced defensive array glyph.
Even when the floating mountain fell, it didn't shake in the slightest.
Li Yao and Yuan Manqiu had already discussed and decided to transform this big warehouse into the most central building of the Refining Department — the crafting room!
In the middle of the empty warehouse stood a small crafting furnace that was more than three meters tall. Although it was an antique made over a hundred years ago and was dark and unremarkable, it could still be used to refine some of the most simple magical equipment.
Next to the crafting furnace lay two lazy Soaring Roars.
Yuan Manqiu was beaming with happiness. She directed the workers to unload more than a dozen big wooden boxes. After unlocking the restrictions, tens of thousands of magical equipment components were poured out.
These magical equipment components were all parts of the crafting furnace. After they were completely assembled, a large number of crystals were used to activate the array glyphs. Only then could the crafting furnace operate normally. Right now, it was nothing more than an iron shell.
"Old Jiang, thank you so much. This time, your Mountain Sea Sect was willing to transfer the crafting furnace at such a low price. It really solved my urgent need!"
Yuan Manqiu expressed her gratitude to a rather handsome middle-aged refiner through a spiritual crane messenger.
This person was called Jiang Wenbo, the logistics supervisor of the Mountain Sea Sect. He was also a grassroots refiner.
It was precisely because they were of the same lineage that he gave away a second-hand crafting furnace to the Grand Desolate War Institution.
Jiang Wenbo laughed and said:
"Big Sis, you are welcome. This crafting furnace has been used for more than a hundred and fifty years. Not only have many components aged and deformed, but the technology can't keep up with the times. It can't be used to refine the latest powerful magical equipment. We have no use for it since a long time ago.
As soon as Li Yao entered the warehouse, he was deeply attracted by the crafting furnace's figure.
Although it was just a bare shell and all the components were still scattered around, Li Yao couldn't help but feel his heart beating faster when he thought that countless divine weapons could be refined from this guy's stomach. He couldn't help but want to rush up and give it a bear hug.
"This is the 1st Generation Tai 'e crafting furnace. Although it has a history of more than a hundred years and its performance parameters are relatively backward, it can still be maintained. It can operate normally under low intensity without any problems. It is enough for a newcomer like you to refine some of the simplest magical equipment!"
Yuan Manqiu said in high spirits. She saw her disciple's eyes glowing and eager appearance. She smiled and knocked on Li Yao's forehead.
"However, if you want to use the crafting furnace, it is not that simple. At the very least, you must first lay the foundation!"
"If you want to run without knowing how to walk, you will definitely fall and break your head!"
"I heard that you have the nickname 'Sleeping God' in school. What happened? Did you diligently study the basic theory classes that I gave you? How many subjects did you pass? Five or ten? "
Yuan Manqiu rushed back, covered in dust. Her whole heart was on the crafting furnace and she didn't have the time to check the newcomer list.
Li Yao swallowed his saliva and stared at the crafting furnace. He casually replied: "I got 207 points."
Yuan Manqiu was stunned. Her fierce-looking face squeezed into a flower as she forcefully patted Li Yao's shoulder:
"Not bad, not bad. Among the tens of thousands of freshmen in school, you actually squeezed your way to the 207th place. Not bad. It seems that I have somewhat underestimated you. I must readjust your study plan! "
"Uh, teacher, I am not the 207th place. I got 207 points. I am the first place on the newcomer list. "Li Yao was somewhat embarrassed.
"Well, not bad. Not bad … What? What! What did you say! You got 207 points? The first place on the newcomer list? "
Yuan Manqiu was completely dumbfounded. Her entire face was like a fermented steamed bun, growing bigger and bigger. She stared blankly for a long time before she clumsily opened her crystal processor to take a look.
When she found that Li Yao had actually passed 88 courses in one go, including all the basic refining theory classes, she instantly let out a scream that was more heart-wrenching than a ghost's wail and a wolf's howl.
"Ang!"
"Ang!"
The two Soaring Roars were scared to the point of trembling. The workers on the back of the Soaring Roars were even more scared to death. Several workers almost fell down as they grabbed the long hair of the Soaring Roars and swung them back and forth.
Yuan Manqiu was completely unable to care about these as she broke into a run.
Li Yao was dumbfounded: "Teacher, where are you going?"
Yuan Manqiu's face and ears were red, as if she was deeply intoxicated by alcohol. She was dancing with joy, speechless:
"I, I am going to look for the Principal! Based on your results, the Principal will have to give us an additional 10% of resources! I am also going to look for the deans of each department and have them issue more tasks related to refining! There is hope, there is hope for the Refining Department this time! Right — "
She ran several dozen meters before she came back like a gust of wind:
"This is the structural diagram and assembly process of the 1st Generation Tai 'e crafting furnace. You can first learn it. You can also try to assemble some of the relatively simple outer components. If there is anything you don't understand, wait for me to come back and teach you!"
Yuan Manqiu stuffed a jade chip into Li Yao's arms. Like a sandstorm, she rushed out of the warehouse, jumped on a worn-out flying shuttle, and sped towards the Faculty Community.
It was already one o 'clock in the morning, and the Principal was certainly sleeping at home. However, with Yuan Manqiu's temper, how could she care so much? She could not wait to go to the Faculty Community and put on a loudspeaker talisman and shout:
"My student is number one in the school!"
Ten minutes later, the overburdened flying shuttle appeared in the sky above the Faculty Community with a creaking sound.
Yuan Manqiu aimed at the small villa where Principal Xiong Baili lived. Just as she was about to dive in, her crystal processor suddenly vibrated.
The Mountain Sea Sect's logistics manager, Jiang Wenbo, sent a spirit crane message requesting a call.
"Big Sis, I am really sorry. I made a mistake while I was busy. The jade chip I gave you did not contain the structural diagram of the 1st Generation Tai 'e furnace."
Jiang Wenbo explained with a wry smile.
The 1st Generation Tai 'e crafting furnace was really too old. The original structural diagram had long been thrown away in some unknown corner.
Jiang Wenbo sent a message to the "Empyrean Terminus Sect" that refined the 1st Generation Tai 'e crafting furnace, asking them to send a structural diagram.
This model of crafting furnace had been discontinued more than a hundred years ago. The disciples of the Empyrean Terminus Sect had been looking for it for a long time, and due to a moment of negligence, they sent a copy of the "2nd Generation Tai 'e" crafting furnace's structural diagram and installation process.
Although these two models came from the same source and 90% of the external components could be used, some of the core components were completely different, and the installation process was very different.
When the disciples of the Empyrean Terminus Sect discovered this problem, they immediately informed Jiang Wenbo. Jiang Wenbo also contacted Yuan Manqiu in the first moment.
"It's okay. I haven't started the installation yet. Let the disciple study it first. With his strength, I estimate that he would have to spend a day and a night on the external components. It would be impossible for him to come in contact with the core components!"
Yuan Manqiu laughed out loud. She did not take this matter to heart. Aiming at Principal Xiong Baili's small villa, she fiercely dived down.
