Not long after Villette left, Li Xiang received personal replies from the teachers of the various specialization courses. Furthermore, the teachers of the three specialization courses in the Firearms Department were all replaced by the dean of the Chessboard Academy, the Firearms Master Leilin Wessex, who was also a Level 4 player, Guardian.
From his name, he was actually from the Wessex family. Once he thought of this huge family empire that controlled the resources of Source Form and mechanical technology, Li Xiang had an indescribable feeling.
Xilo Wessex, a man who stood at the peak of steam machinery, was even younger than the White King. He was actually able to single-handedly manage the once unknown Wessex family to a level that was on par with the Five Great Thrones.
Anyone who was involved in machinery would never be able to avoid him. Almost everyone had to live under his shadow. It was unknown if this dean was related to him in any way.
In the next half a month, Li Xiang wandered around. Villette was said to have gone on a new mission, so he could only wander around alone. He could not ask Shizuko Ise to come along, right?
During this period, he and Zhang Xixi discussed cooperation with the border troops. After accidentally discovering the little secret between her and Yu Jing, Li Xiang always felt that it would be quite awkward to talk to Yu Jing alone. During this period, he might as well tell Zhang Xixi everything. After all, she could pass it on to Yu Jing.
Unexpectedly, the Serpent Machinery side quickly confirmed that they were in favor of cooperation with the border troops. The two contacts were Li Xiang and Zhang Xixi. However, the Serpent Machinery side still wanted to take ten percent of the profits.
According to Villette, the profits from this deal were quite good. Li Xiang could accept ten percent.
After this matter, Li Xiang continued to wander around Lighthouse Academy and Chessboard Academy. He was quite famous and was quickly recognized by others. Most of the students admired him very much.
One night in mid-November, he received a notice from Professor Jeffrey that the freshmen banquet had been brought forward. He had to prepare a speech because he was the freshmen representative.
The freshmen banquet was held in the central area's staircase hall. It was a super building that could accommodate tens of thousands of people on one floor. It was also the gathering place for various large-scale activities and students' independent club activities.
If it was just for students, the cost would not be low.
The fog was thicker at night, but the students' restless hearts would calm down when they saw the shining one-ring lighthouse above their heads.
In the Lighthouse Player University of the Subcontinent, all the lighthouses were ranked according to their size, starting from the first ring up to the nineteenth ring.
As for this one-ringed lighthouse, its light covered the entire island. It was said that it was personally created by the legendary player Lighthouse, and the view was very wide. Unfortunately, except for the members of the Vigilance Team, students were not allowed to enter.
Li Xiang changed into Lighthouse Academy's uniform. In such an occasion, the various faculties would usually wear their academy uniforms to attend. There were still a few hours before the banquet began, but the central area was already filled with people. Freshmen in various academy uniforms were whispering to each other, all of them looking very excited.
After all, in the past, he had been fighting to enter this famous school. Now that he could finally live here, how could he not be happy?
Walking alone in the night, Li Xiang was still reciting tonight's speech in his head. In his previous life, he had never even entered a university, let alone give a speech as a freshman representative.
He took out his communicator subconsciously, wanting to see how Ming Xu and the others were doing. At that moment, there was a soft "bang". A muscular body slammed into his back from behind.
The other party had clearly done it on purpose. He was very strong, and Li Xiang, who was not prepared, staggered from the impact. It took him a lot of effort to stabilize himself.
Judging from the strength alone, the other party's punching force was at least 1000kg.
"Ah, sorry, sorry. Are you okay?" The tall man behind him reached out to help him up, but Li Xiang slid away from his arms.
The tall man was at least two and a half meters tall. His body was about three times bigger than Li Xiang's. His Lighthouse Academy uniform was about to burst. There was a group of Lighthouse Academy freshmen gathered behind him. It seemed that they were there to cause trouble.
He was still smiling, but the murderous intent hidden behind his smile was not concealed at all.
"Hey, isn't this our freshman representative, Li Xiang?" He used a very exaggerated tone to pronounce Li Xiang's name. "How could he be knocked over by a light bump from me?"
The group of people behind him immediately burst into laughter. The freshmen from other academies who were walking past all stopped in their tracks.
Li Xiang patted the dust off his body and raised his head to look at him coldly.
"Is it because I'm too strong, or are you too weak?" The tall man spoke in the Steam language skillfully. His provocative tone was completely different from the mocking tone from before.
Li Xiang had recently learned some Steam language. When he heard this, he only pursed his lips, waiting for his next move.
This provocation method was a little too crude. He had long expected something like this to happen. The other party had picked this time to do it. It seemed that they had been preparing for a long time.
"Li Xiang, don't be rash. He's a member of the Ogheim family, William Ogheim. He's recognized as the number one person in the Assassin Specialization this time." A petite figure appeared behind him in time and stood behind Li Xiang.
When he heard Ise Shizuko's voice, he was a little stunned. He turned around and saw the ninja girl standing behind him with a cold expression. She was actually speaking up for him.
"Don't look. We're from the same Specialization after all. Personal grudges are personal grudges. You've been slapped in the face, so the Mixed Specialization will be embarrassed along with you." Ise Shizuko explained calmly. A faint blush appeared on her face. Even she herself felt that this reason was far-fetched …
"Hmm, why is he the number one person? Didn't they say that only the two of us came to Lighthouse Academy in the final ranking competition? " Li Xiang asked in a low voice, puzzled. Logically, he and Ise Shizuko were the two strongest freshmen.
"Have you forgotten that every Chronometer Tower Consortium University has a certain quota for internal recruitment? William came in through the internal recruitment channel. He did not participate in the final trial. However, his strength is definitely not below Finis. He has a very pure Ogheim bloodline. " Ise Shizuko glared at him. It was not his fault that he did not know about this information. After all, until she was defeated by him in the final ranking competition, she knew that he was most likely the murderer of her fiancé, Yakumo Ruler.
Until that moment, Ise Shizuko did not know that Li Xiang was actually a commoner. He was even awakened by death.
He had walked step by step. Now, he had been promoted as a legend by City 0126, encouraging countless students with weaker talents to move forward. Naturally, she was also very clear about this.
"Oh, so what?" Li Xiang smiled.
"What are you two talking about so sneakily?" William clenched his fist and said with a cold smile. "Li Xiang, I want your identity as the representative of Lighthouse Academy's freshmen. Let's fight."
Compared to Finis's coldness, William was more straightforward. However, Li Xiang ignored him directly and turned to leave.
"Sorry, not interested." Li Xiang complained in his heart. 'What's the benefit of fighting with you? Other than being punished, I won't get anything. Only an idiot would fight. '
"I'll offer a part of the Pandemonium Equipment Set. Do you want to fight?"
