Zhiling City was the main city of the Zhiling district. It was very different from Canyon Peak City, the main city of the Canyon Peak District.
Canyon Peak City was located in the middle of the mountains and was restricted in many ways. Even the layout of the city was narrow and long due to the insurmountable mountain ranges on both sides.
Zhiling City was different. It was located on a plain and was surrounded by open space. The entire city was laid out in a square pattern, with roads extending in all directions. In contrast, Canyon Peak City only had one main road that led out of the mountains, and it hadn't even been fully repaired.
After walking for half a day, Lu Ping's group finally entered the outskirts of Zhiling City. There were obviously more carriages on the road, and it was no longer as deserted as when they had first left the mountain pass. This was the first time most of the Canyon Peak Academy students had left Canyon Peak Mountain, and the bustling scene was completely different from Canyon Peak City.
As they walked along the main road, passing through the rice fields and villages on both sides, the buildings grew denser and denser. The group had already entered the outer city of Zhiling City, and the towering inner city walls in the distance were also something that Canyon Peak City didn't have. The inner city of Canyon Peak City was built along the mountain, and the mountain itself had been used to create a defense system that was easy to defend and hard to attack. This was probably the only advantage that Canyon Peak City had over Zhiling City.
As soon as they entered the outer city, Lu Ping's group began to ask around for the location of Amaterasu College.
Amaterasu College was famous in Zhiling City, and even the entire Zhiling district. The four of them had no trouble asking around, and finally, on a secluded but wide street, Lu Ping's group stood outside the main gates of Amaterasu College. Behind them, a group of Canyon Peak Academy students looked at them strangely. Diagonally across from the main gates of Amaterasu College was a gate that didn't lose out to Amaterasu College in terms of grandeur. A plaque hung high above the gate read: Bipolar.
Amaterasu College and Bipolar Academy, two famed academies in the Zhiling district, were only across the street from each other. This was something the lonely youths of the Gorge Peak District had never heard of.
The Bipolar Academy had already received the letter in advance and arranged for the Soul-Borrowing Pagoda of the Canyon Academy. The students of the Canyon Academy had successfully entered the Bipolar Academy, but Lu Ping and the other three were currently stuck outside the Amaterasu College.
"Chu Min? I don't have this instructor. "
After the four of them stated their intentions, the gatekeeper of Amaterasu College rudely stopped them at the door.
"Uh, maybe it's not the tutor, it's the dean." Siffin recalled the dean's instructions when he handed them the letter before he left.
"Are you looking for trouble? Who didn't know that the dean of Amaterasu College was Lord Yunchong? I was personally appointed by the old man! "The gatekeeper said proudly. Although he was just an ordinary gatekeeper, he clearly didn't think much of these students who looked like cultivators. He only knew how to abide by the rules of Amaterasu College. If anyone really dared to cause trouble, there would naturally be someone to take care of them, even if he didn't have much ability. After all, his backer was very strong!
"What's going on, did Old Guo make a mistake?" As Morin said this, he didn't even address the gatekeeper as President Guo anymore, instead directly addressing him as Old Guo.
"That shouldn't be!" Siffin flipped over the letter. It was indeed written, "For Chu Min."
"Uncle, is there someone else in the school called Chu Min?" Su Tang asked.
Facing such a sensible little girl, the gatekeeper's tone was obviously much kinder, but in the end, he still had a helpless expression on his face. "There are more than ten thousand people in the academy, how would I remember all of them? You'd better figure it out before you come!"
"Can we go in and look?" Su Tang asked.
"No, no, absolutely not. The school doesn't allow strangers to go in and out. "The gatekeeper waved his hand.
"Fine!" Su Tang retreated helplessly. Morin was very unhappy with the gatekeeper's appearance.
"Why don't you punch him in the face?" Morin egged Su Tang on.
"I'll punch you in the face." Su Tang glared at him.
"Then, what should we do?" Morin changed the topic.
Lu Ping had already walked forward.
"Let us go in and look!" Lu Ping said.
"You silly child, you can't go in. Figure out who you're looking for first." The gatekeeper said.
"Chu Min." Lu Ping said.
"There's no such person." The gatekeeper waved his hand.
"You just said that you can't remember over ten thousand people, how do you know there's no such person?" Lu Ping asked.
The gatekeeper stared blankly, obviously not expecting Lu Ping to say this, but he quickly responded: "Who knows if you made up a name? You should first figure out this person's identity, then I can confirm it. "
"It's not made up, we have a letter for her!" Lu Ping pointed at the letter in Siffin's hand.
"Who knows if it's fake or not." The gatekeeper said.
"It's real."
"If you say it's real then it's real?"
"It's indeed real."
"Are you trying to be a rascal? Do you think I won't … huh? "The gatekeeper said, suddenly his eyes rolled, his legs went soft, and he was about to fall. Lu Ping stretched out his hand to support him, shoving him to the corner of the wall, and turned to the other three: "Let's go."
"Should I say you're clever or reckless?" Morin wiped the sweat off his forehead.
"That's not good, right?" Siffin was stunned.
"You didn't hit her too hard, did you?" Su Tang was worried.
"Not really." Lu Ping only answered Su Tang, striding into the Amaterasu College's main gate.
"An assassin's intuition tells me that I'll be unlucky." Morin said.
"Let's find Teacher Chu Min as soon as possible!" Su Tang said.
"I'm just afraid that the dean hasn't been in contact for too long, and something really happened." Siffin said.
While the three were talking, they followed Lu Ping into the Amaterasu College.
The wide tree-lined road led directly to the college's main building. There wasn't a single person on the road, the whole college was very quiet and peaceful, but this gave the four a headache. They originally wanted to quickly ask around after entering, but in the end, there wasn't a single person on such a wide road.
"Let's go look in the building!" Lu Ping walked in the front, and when no one had any ideas, Lu Ping used his decisive actions to guide everyone.
Who knew that at this time, a clear and bright voice began to reverberate above the entire Amaterasu College.
"Intruders, there are intruders. Three men and one woman: Essence Soul Level 6, the wheelchair youth; Pivot Soul Level 6, the straw hat youth; Strength Soul Level 6, the red-clothed girl; Ordinary passerby, the grey clothed youth. "
The four people's characteristics and realms were all clearly described, as if they were looking at the four people with their own eyes. And although this voice covered the entire college, the four people could still distinguish the source of the voice, and all turned their heads.
Behind them, in front of the main gate of the Amaterasu College, a youth stood with his hands on his hips, his right hand holding a trumpet-like thing to his mouth, but everyone knew that such a simple thing couldn't achieve such an effect of amplification and transmission. The youth relied on the extraordinary realm of the Cry Soul to achieve such a large area of sound transmission coverage. This wasn't just the realm of a few heavens, but also the ability to control sound that would only appear after mastering it.
"This is the information sent by the Guard Shi Ao," the youth continued.
The Guard! This meant that he was definitely a student. To think that a student of the Amaterasu College had already reached the Mastery realm. The strength of the college was indeed far beyond the countryside of the Canyon Peak District.
And as soon as the youth sent out the information, a voice in the air above the college immediately responded.
"Announcing the third-year cultivation question: Capture the intruders. The wheelchair youth, two points; the straw hat youth, four points; the red-clothed girl, six points; the grey clothed youth, one point. "
"So few points, how can there be enough points!!" All kinds of complaints sounded in the air above the college.
"A point is a point is a point!"
"First come, first served!"
As the voice traveled, there were already figures leaping out of the windows of the main building in the distance. Sounds of movement could be heard coming from all directions. The Heavenly Reflection Institute, which had been quiet and peaceful just a moment ago, was now bustling with activity.
"As expected, I'm unlucky." Morin screamed. In Zhenfeng College, he was the strongest among the students with the sixth heavens realm. But in this Amaterasu College, just from hearing so many people's voices, he knew that the sixth heavens realm was definitely not enough. For him, this was a world where the strong were as common as the clouds.
"Don't be afraid, just tell them why we're here." Siffin said.
"What if they cripple you without asking?" Morin said.
"Run first." Lu Ping said.
"We have to split up, or else we'll be too big of a target." Morin, who was an assassin, had some experience.
"Do you have a grudge against me?" Siffin was depressed. Normally it would be fine, but now he was in a wheelchair, how could he outrun others?
"You stay and tell them why we're here!" Morin said.
Siffin looked at the crowd that had already rushed out from the far end of the road. Many of them had weapons in their hands, and the bald youth who rushed at the front had a black tattoo on his scalp, all the way to the corner of his eyebrows. His face had the appearance of a murderer, and he suddenly felt a little guilty.
"Let's run!" Lu Ping extended his hand, pulled him onto his shoulder, and ran away madly.
"Hahahaha." Morin was still in the mood to laugh. He thought of the scene he had imagined when he walked out of the mountain pass yesterday, and now it had become a reality for Siffin.
"You're still laughing, you should worry about yourself!" Su Tang said. With Morin's body, "running" was not much different from the wheelchair-bound Siffin. Su Tang was considering whether or not to carry this guy.
"Hehe, I'm relying on experience and intelligence." Morin said. He didn't walk on the main road, but had already entered the shade beside the road.
"I'm going this way." Su Tang pointed in the opposite direction of Morin and shouted to Lu Ping.
"I'll hide Siffin and then come find you." Lu Ping replied.
"Where do you plan to hide me?" Xiping asked in frustration.
"How would I know? I'm not familiar with this place. What do you think?"
"What I think, can we not run so openly on the main road?" Siffin said.
"Attract more attention, it'll be easier for them to escape." Lu Ping said.
"Oh …" Siffin was ashamed. He was only thinking about himself, and his awareness was too low!
"However, there aren't many people chasing after us!" Siffin said as he observed the movements of the students rushing out.
"Why?" Lu Ping also slowed down and looked around.
