Chapter 27

~7 min read 1,245 words

Du Fang stood in front of the porthole.

Looking at the towering giant mountain that led directly to the sky.

"Linjiang Academy is actually built on the mountain, how high must that be!"

Shi Shi Xuan smiled: "This mountain range stretches for thousands of miles, spanning Linjiang Prefecture."

"Its foot is Linjiang Prefecture."

"As for its height..."

Shi Shi Xuan reached out and gestured on the particle glass.

"This Whale Ray Boat rises vertically."

"It will take more than ten minutes to reach the mountainside."

Boom!

While speaking, the speed of the Whale Ray Boat suddenly accelerated!

Heavy clouds rolled on both sides, being cut open alive.

It even made a roaring, bursting sound.

Inside Cabin 1, blue light flickered.

A cold mechanical voice rang out.

"Destination: Linjiang Academy."

"Remaining time, 10 minutes."

"Passengers in Cabin 1, please prepare to get off."

The freshmen in the cabin heard the sound and began to tidy up their things one after another.

Jiang Jian drank his drink, put away his schoolbag, and said: "We should suffer some losses in the branch assessment."

Song Ling sat next to him, turned her head, and asked: "Jiang Jian, what do you mean by that?"

"Students from Linjiang Prefecture have a right, the right of priority branch entry."

Jiang Jian tied up his black cloth bag and looked out the window.

"Linjiang Academy's annual enrollment branch assessment is a major event."

"After all."

"Academy ranking determines the amount of subsidized resources."

"We are outsiders from other prefectures."

"Linjiang Prefecture is the main source of students for Linjiang Academy."

"Priority branch entry, as the name suggests."

"If assessment scores are the same."

"Students from Linjiang Prefecture are given priority."

"Only then are we outsiders."

Hearing this.

Song Ling immediately showed indignation.

However, she also knew.

These were not things she could decide.

Song Ling tidied up her schoolbag and said: "But we are 3rd-level talents after all, it shouldn't be difficult to be assigned to the First Branch, right?"

Jiang Jian chuckled, shook his head and said: "The First Branch only has 50 spots."

"There are 22 3rd-level talents here."

"And, don't forget."

"These 22 people are just the 3rd-level talent freshmen that Gu Qi fished up after traveling through six prefectures."

"Not to mention the other prefectures."

"Just talking about the largest Linjiang Prefecture."

"I just looked at the Linjiang Prefecture forum, which has big exam information for Linjiang Prefecture."

"Linjiang Prefecture, in one prefecture, there are 40 3rd-level talent freshmen this time!"

"According to the discussions on the Prefecture Government forum, I can roughly estimate."

Jiang Jian swiped the screen and turned off his identity device.

"This batch, all the freshmen of Linjiang Academy."

"3rd-level talent."

"The total number should be around 90."

"90 people."

"Fighting for the top 50."

"It's not that easy."

Just as they were talking.

The speed of the Whale Ray Boat began to slow down.

Under the scorching sun.

The huge portholes on both sides of the boat became increasingly transparent.

"Destination: Linjiang Academy."

"Remaining time: 1 minute."

"Passengers in Cabin 1, attention, prepare to get off!"

The prompt sound came again.

At this time.

Du Fang suddenly turned his head, his expression shocked: "Jiang Jian, Song Ling, come and look quickly!"

"What's wrong?"

Jiang Jian raised his eyebrows, got up from the sofa, and walked to Du Fang's side.

Du Fang opened his mouth wide, raised his finger, and pointed outside the glass.

Jiang Jian looked out through the particle glass.

An unimaginably huge giant mountain.

Even, it could no longer be called a mountain.

It was like a towering heavenly wall that was too high to reach.

It stood quietly in front, having gone through who knows how much time.

Its height was unknown, its width was unknown.

Below Mount Tianzhu, there was an even more shocking steel jungle!

"That is..."

"Five-Layer Jiangcheng!"

"My God!"

Around them, exclamations came one after another.

Light currents surged, flying shuttles filled the sky.

The neon giant city, built entirely of steel, had five full layers.

The Five-Layer Jiangcheng was built against the mountain, layer upon layer.

Every moment, countless warships were taking off and landing.

Besides that.

The sky under the Jiangcheng had meteor light rain passing by from time to time.

Among them, every imperceptible point of light was a very fast flying shuttle.

"Five-Layer Jiangcheng, population of 100 million."

"Inside this towering and magnificent steel giant city."

"People are no different from ants."

Shi Shi Xuan stood beside Jiang Jian, his expression inexplicable, "Classmate Jiang Jian, do you know what is inside the First-Layer Jiangcheng?"

Jiang Jian shook his head.

Shi Shi Xuan lowered his head, looked through the glass, and looked at the dark jungle at the very bottom of the Jiangcheng.

"Inside the First-Layer Jiangcheng, those who live there."

"Are all unofficial citizens."

Hearing this.

Du Fang immediately turned around, his pupils contracted: "What did you say?!"

Song Ling also showed horror.

Shi Shi Xuan was quite satisfied with their reaction.

He smiled and continued: "These unofficial citizens are things raised by Linjiang Prefecture."

"To put it bluntly."

"The First-Layer Jiangcheng is a self-produced and self-sold treasure vault of spiritual materials."

"These countless demons, spirits, ghosts, and monsters."

"Although they live in the First-Layer Jiangcheng, they are trapped by the mountain array and cannot get out until they die."

"They can only grow slowly, waiting for people to harvest them."

Shi Shi Xuan looked at Jiang Jian, "Even our Linjiang Academy has quite a few farms in this First-Layer Jiangcheng."

Although Jiang Jian had vaguely heard about this before.

But at this moment, seeing it with his own eyes.

He was still a bit amazed in his heart.

Linjiang Prefecture had too much courage.

Actually using a huge city that could accommodate tens of millions of people.

As a farm.

Raising countless "unofficial citizens".

Looking through the porthole.

The First-Layer Jiangcheng at the very bottom was as dark as an abyss.

Compared to the daylight neon of the other four layers of Jiangcheng above.

It formed a sharp contrast.

Deep in the darkness.

One could vaguely see the outline of the steel city.

And countless silent roars.

It's just that.

Around this city of tens of millions of people.

It was firmly shrouded by the incredible Mount Tianzhu array.

Whenever those things in the darkness stood at the edge of the city, wanting to escape.

Transparent ripples would appear, easily blocking them.

"This farm is not so easy to enter."

Shi Shi Xuan narrowed his eyes, "Branch assessment allows one free entry."

"Besides that."

"Every time you enter the First-Layer Jiangcheng, you have to pay Alliance coins."

Hearing this.

Jiang Jian very keenly captured the information in his words.

"Classmate Shi Shi Xuan, are you saying that the enrollment branch assessment is inside the First-Layer Jiangcheng?"

Shi Shi Xuan nodded: "According to convention, Linjiang Academy's branch assessment requires entering the farm once."

Inside the farm, there are countless demons, spirits, ghosts, and monsters.

Du Fang thought of this, gritted his teeth, and said: "There shouldn't be any danger, right?"

Shi Shi Xuan smiled: "Enrollment assessment has invigilators to protect, so there won't be any loss of life."

Du Fang breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."

Jiang Jian, however, frowned slightly.

Shi Shi Xuan's answer was only "no loss of life".

Besides that.

Minor injuries, serious injuries, disability, all seemed possible.

"Destination: Linjiang Academy, by the Jiangcheng."

"Arrived!"
