After pausing for a moment, a dozen dull and ordinary flying swords floated behind the purple-clothed old man. They spun around randomly above the heads of the numerous students. From time to time, they would rapidly dive, change directions, and roll within a small area, causing the students to repeatedly cry out in surprise.
The purple-clothed old man smiled and said:
"Fellow students, if the Anti-Demon Beast Defense System was not enough to satisfy you, then let's take a look at Deep Sea University's newly refined 'Unmanned Flying Sword'. This kind of flying sword has a total of two models. Type A can be remotely controlled by a special crystal processor, allowing a cultivator to control the flying sword from thousands of miles away. As for the type B that you see, it is completely unmanned. There is no cultivator controlling it at all!"
"If there is no one controlling it, then how do they fly?" A student could not help but ask.
"We have used a completely new array glyph architecture in the main crystal processor of this flying sword. It can input hundreds of thousands of telepathic thoughts in advance, simulating all possible battle situations that the flying sword may encounter. Furthermore, we have set up a corresponding battle plan. This is the mystery of the 'Unmanned Flying Sword'! Of course, the true research and development is not as simple as I said. The Unmanned Flying Sword has just been born. There are still many problems. If fellow students are interested, there is no harm in entering our Deep Sea University. Together, we can research and perfect this mysterious artifact! "The purple-clothed old man beamed as he spoke.
Li Yao looked at the Unmanned Flying Sword flying back and forth in the air. His heart stirred, and he could not help but think of Black Wing.
Blackwing didn't need him to issue a command and would fly here and there on its own. It would even lie in front of the hologram projector, humming and humming as it sang and danced. It was simply not like a transcendent artifact, but a living life.
Compared to the Unmanned Flying Sword, Black Wing's "intelligence" was clearly a level higher.
However, his old man had once said that Black Wing was an ancient artifact that he found in some ancient ruins in another world. His old man had studied it for a lifetime, but he was still unable to crack its structure. He could not even open its outer shell.
His old man speculated that Black Wing should be a product of a higher level cultivation civilization.
For Deep Sea University to be able to refine this kind of flying sword that did not need a cultivator to control it was already very amazing!
At this time, an unmanned flying sword suddenly flipped over and flew over his head. Li Yao felt an itch in his heart and reached out with lightning speed, wanting to grab the flying sword's hilt.
Just as Li Yao's fingertips were about to touch the sword's hilt, the flying sword was like an electric eel. Its entire body trembled and emitted a faint blue light. An electric arc instantly struck Li Yao's fingertips.
"It hurts!"
Li Yao retracted his hand. His fingertips had already turned black. He looked at the flying sword again. It was hovering above his head, and from time to time, it would burst out evil blue electric arcs.
Li Yao was so scared that he stuck out his tongue and shrunk his neck. He didn't dare to be rash anymore.
The purple-clothed old man chuckled as he walked in front of him and said, "This student, now you know the power of an unmanned flying sword, right? Fortunately, it recognized your identity as a 'commoner' in time. If it had determined that you were a demon beast or a person of the demonic path, it would have already beheaded you! Come, let me see if you're injured. "
Li Yao obediently extended his hand, but his mind was spinning. He was desperately trying to think of a way to break the unmanned flying sword.
"Huh?"
The purple-clothed old man's face revealed a touch of surprise and joy. His smile grew even wider. "This student, do you often repair artifacts in your spare time?"
Li Yao stared blankly. He said in amazement, "How did you know?"
"Your fingers feel different from ordinary people. That kind of pliable and tough feeling should be caused by calluses growing and grinding away, then growing and grinding away again. Only after dozens of repetitions can it be produced. In addition to the subtle reactions of several palm muscles, other than a veteran artifact repairer, it's impossible for others to have such hands! What, do you want to enter our Deep Sea University? "The purple-clothed old man asked very amiably.
Li Yao looked at the Anti-Demon Beast Defense System and then looked at the unmanned flying sword hovering above his head. He nodded his head vigorously. "My dream is to become an artificer and refine the strongest artifacts in the Federation!"
"Of the top ten artificers in the Federation, seven graduated from our Deep Sea University. Deep Sea University is the holy land of artificers! My name is Xie Tingxian. I'm Deep Sea University's observer in Exam Room 571. You're very good. I'll pay special attention to you during the competition. Remember to perform well! "The purple-clothed old man patted Li Yao's shoulder. In the blink of an eye, he was once again surrounded by other students.
"Wow!"
Outside the crowd, Zheng Dongming exclaimed exaggeratedly. "I actually met an observer from Deep Sea University. This is a big shot who has the power to 'specially recruit'. As long as he takes a fancy to you, you don't even need to take the College Entrance Exam. You can directly enter Deep Sea University! If I had known earlier, I would've let the flying sword shock me a moment ago! "
"That's only if he takes a fancy to you!"
Li Yao said casually, but his heart was thumping. Nervous, excited, happy … all kinds of emotions were tangled together, causing him to be excited to the extreme.
Deep Sea University was the most ideal university in his mind. He must perform well in the Limit Challenge Competition and make this "Xie Tingxian" take notice of him!
After confirming his first choice, the rest of the universities didn't attract him as much. Li Yao and Zheng Dongming walked around the cabin. They didn't look carefully at the remaining universities. Just as they were about to leave the cabin, they suddenly discovered a small exhibition hall in the corner.
Compared to the other universities' luxurious decorations, advanced facilities, and crowded exhibition halls, this exhibition hall was much too shabby. There wasn't even a single student inside. There was only a lone staff member sitting in the deepest part of the hall.
Li Yao raised his head and saw the words "Grand Desolate War Institution" written on it!
"This is also one of the 'Nine Greats'? Why is it so deserted? No one wants to apply to this university? "Li Yao asked with great curiosity.
Zheng Dongming glanced at it and couldn't help but laugh, "The Grand Desolate War Institution has the shallowest background and the weakest comprehensive strength among the 'Nine Greats'. It's also located in the vile environment of the Demon Beast Wasteland. However, if it's just like this, it shouldn't be so deserted. The main reason is that the Grand Desolate War Institution is most famous for its' Combat Department '. It specializes in cultivating' Body Cultivators' who temper their bodies and enter the martial path. It's said that the most extreme Body Cultivators even reject all magical equipment. They believe that the body is the strongest and only magical equipment.
Li Yao didn't quite agree with that, either.
He was born in the Artifact Graveyard. He was the best at transforming any object around him into a weapon. Asking him to rely on his two fists to fight an enemy was simply stupid beyond compare.
Zheng Dongming continued,
"The Grand Desolate War Institution's cultivation philosophy still has a certain amount of logic in the local area. Because the environment of the Wasteland is vile and resources are scarce, many powerful magical equipment with precise structures will be excessively worn out after being used a few times due to the vile environment. They can't be used again … This kind of extreme environment can cultivate Body Cultivators who purely rely on their physical bodies! However, in the Southeast region, cultivators are all good at using magical equipment. This kind of routine can't work. Plus, tempering the body is incomparably painful. The path of body tempering is said to have endured 'eighty-one hardships' in order to have some small success. Tell me, in our Southeast region, who would be so stupid as to choose the path of body tempering? "
After pausing for a moment, Zheng Dongming suddenly thought of something. He slapped his head and said, "I almost forgot. Your Chixiao No. 2 High School once had a cultivation genius, 'Fiend Blade Peng Hai'. He chose the Grand Desolate War Institution. However, he isn't an extreme Body Cultivator, but rather a sword cultivator."
