As a matter of fact, the other three academies were also very famous, but they had always been overshadowed by the Lighthouse Academy.
Torch Academy specialized in nurturing magic users of all kinds of special combat types. They often chose to give up on becoming a player and instead set their goal as joining a private group formed by players, devoting their energy to studying magic and combat.
The Magicians from the Torch Academy were far more powerful than ordinary magic users. They were the players' favorite type of partner.
The Chessboard Academy specialized in steam mechanics, which was an authoritative level in the seven continents. They had sent countless mechanical talents to Wessex and other major forces.
The Beacon Academy was dedicated to training all kinds of elite clerks and researchers. There were many historical researchers in the academy, and they were also a group of professional staff favored by various player groups.
The Lighthouse Player University of the Subcontinent had abandoned the model of ordinary universities. The four academies specialized in the field and specialized in training professional talents. Therefore, even though the overall strength of the university was getting weaker and weaker, as long as one could graduate from the Lighthouse Player University of the Subcontinent, they would be a red-hot genius.
After lighting up the Lighthouse, Li Xiang officially became a prospective student of the Lighthouse Player University of the Subcontinent.
The registration would take place on November 1st, which was three days later.
The Lighthouse Player University of the Subcontinent was located in City 0010, which was a border city. It was also the city where Bian Hetu's border troops belonged to. It was also the city where Wang Zhongyue's airship fleet was located!
After the confirmation, Li Xiang put away the Lighthouse. Hestria happened to be back at the same time.
"What's the result?" Li Xiang thought about it, but he couldn't remember anything about the Goddess of Calamity investigating him.
"It's a wasted trip. The only conclusion is that the Goddess of Calamity used the highest authority to erase your memory. She's the only one who knows the process and the result. No one else can see it." Hestria shrugged. This kind of situation was rare, but no matter what the result was, he had passed this hurdle.
"We'll leave for City 0010 tomorrow. Are you okay with that?" Hestria helped him pack his luggage, looking a little unhappy. "If you stay any longer, the Bai family will send people to target you in the name of assisting in the investigation. If what you did in the ultimate trial is exposed, I can't protect you, not even Lord Night Shadow."
"I understand. Before that, I plan to go to City 0266." Li Xiang explained that he needed to go to the Saint Server Church to obtain the universal imprint, and Hestria nodded.
In short, he couldn't stay here any longer. Bai Haiting and Bai Yunfei were the ones who died, so there was no way the Bai would pretend nothing had happened. Bai Haiting and Bai Yunfei were dead, after all.
.....
In City 0001, at the Bai family's main residence.
Bai Yuhan hugged a large pile of documents and hurried through the corridor. The maids and attendants who passed by would respectfully stop and salute her. She smiled and nodded in greeting, then continued to walk toward Conference Hall No. 17.
The main family was located in the most prosperous area of City 0001, including the sea, the land, the air, and the underground. It was the most solid fortress in District 1 of the Subcontinent continent. Unlike the buildings in the other branches, the main family's buildings were the best of the best. Every building had been meticulously designed by the senior architects of Wessex and had cost a fortune.
She had accompanied the investigators sent by the family to interrogate a large group of people related to Li Xiang, including Bai Shanshan, and sorted out the thick pile of documents. At the moment, she was about to report to Conference Hall No. 17.
Holding the pile of documents, Bai Shanshan, Lélie, and Julie's words were still echoing in her ears. It was as if the Li Xiang in everyone's mouths were completely different. She remembered that when she was the chief examiner, the first time she met Li Xiang was because of Rocca's recommendation. Coupled with the mission of the Book of Prophecy, she had paid attention to the young man.
From the good physical test results to the awakening of the Death Magic Circuit to taking Bai Xintong away, the young man had appeared in her sight very few times, but he had always left an inexplicable deep impression.
His calmness when the Death Magic Circuit was awakened had amazed her.
Bai Yuhan had reached her current position because she understood this pain better than anyone else. It was the awakening of the Death Magic Circuit that made it impossible for her to reach the threshold of a player. Even if she had become a top magician, she still couldn't enter the true core of the family.
Why was he able to look so calm after learning this?
Did he know in advance that she could pass the Polar night training? Impossible, it was impossible for him to have such a clairvoyant ability.
Later, when he faced the tarot card dealer, he was actually able to snatch Bai Shanshan's gun and kill the other party. At that time, he didn't even know what the Origin Substance was …
That gaze, that conviction, made Bai Yuhan couldn't help but associate it with her own unwillingness to admit defeat.
"Supreme White King." A clear and bright voice interrupted her thoughts.
"Long time no see, Cousin Yuhan."
Bai Yuhan looked up. The young man in front of her was a little taller than a year ago. He had also matured a lot. He had a signature smile on his face that made people feel as warm as a spring breeze. It didn't match his name at all.
"Supreme White King, Dong, Cousin Dongxue, why are you here?" Bai Yuhan, who had always been indifferent, couldn't help but be dazed when she saw the young man in front of her.
Standing in front of her was the number one successor of the family, Bai Dongxue!
The young man who had become a player in his second year was known as the closest to the White King so far.
There was a saying among the younger generation of the Bai Family that had been passed down for a long time.
"In the Bai Family, the harder you work, the more you can feel the difference between you and Bai Dongxue."
"School hasn't started yet. I just happened to receive the family's notice that I was promoted to an official councilor, so I rushed over to take a look. I heard that Haiting and Yunfei died? "Bai Dongxue smiled slightly and stepped aside to let her walk in.
"Councilor! Main family councilor? " Bai Yuhan was shocked. She had been in the family for so long, and was only a probationary councilor of the tenth branch family. This was already considered one of the fastest promotions among her peers. To be promoted to councilor would probably take three or four years, but Bai Dongxue was going to be promoted to a councilor of the main family!
Main family councilor and branch family councilor were only one word apart, but the difference in power was like heaven and earth.
After becoming a councilor of the main family, one would be able to advance to various important positions in the main family. In the future, they would also have a chance to enter the Senate. It was a path that all of the Bai Family's higher-ups had to go through. If a councilor of the branch family couldn't return to the main family in the future, they would only be the head of the branch family.
"I was just lucky." He smiled as he walked by Bai Yuhan's side. The two of them looked like a golden couple that attracted many envious gazes from the other members of the Bai Family.
This was especially true of Bai Dongxue. Wherever she went, there would be many young girls who would squeal with undisguised adoration.
"Haiting and Yunfei failed in the ultimate trial," Qin Yu said. Bai Yuhan sighed. There was no need to say much about Bai Yunfei. If not for his father, Bai Ge, becoming a probationary councilor, the death of a member of the Bai Family wouldn't have alerted the main family. But Bai Haiting was different.
He was one of the important successors of the sixth branch family. When the news of his death spread, the sixth branch immediately exploded. It was also because of the sixth ancestor's insistence that they investigate this matter.
Because this matter involved many aristocratic families and Baimiya, the investigation didn't go smoothly. Many of the clues pointed to Li Xiang, and they even learned that Bai Haiting and the others had accepted the reward of the Wild Hunt to assassinate Li Xiang. But the most important video evidence had been blocked by Wessex.
Without conclusive evidence, they couldn't casually target a prospective college student. Especially now that he was famous and had the support of Polar Night.
Polar Night was one of the powers that the upper echelons were most against this.
In short, it was a mess.
After Bai Yuhan finished her explanation, Bai Dongxue only smiled and said casually, "I heard that Li Xiang is cousin Xintong's brother?"
"Yes."
"Cousin Xintong? Interesting. I've investigated and found that her background has been completely blocked. I'm afraid only her uncle knows who her parents are." Bai Dongxue pursed her lips and smiled. The uncle she was talking about was the current King Bai.
Bai Yuhan didn't dare to answer.
Any discussion involving King Bai was a huge taboo.
"Let's go to the conference room to see the results." Bai Dongxue's eyes flashed. She changed the topic and walked into conference room 17 with her.
Only then did Bai Yuhan realize that Bai Dongxue was wearing an investigator's badge!
