The buses will take you to the city center.

By the way, do you know which three they are?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jingming nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Great Xia Nation had a strong martial culture; the Wu Ke Gaokao was broadcast nationwide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Likewise, thousands of ability universities held annual university leagues to determine their rankings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among these thousands, three universities consistently held the top three spots in the league.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were Qingjing Ability University, Mocheng Ability University, and Jincheng Ability University.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All three were over two hundred years old.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They possessed abundant educational resources, and their instructors were all at least sixth-rank ability users!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Towering above all other universities in the nation, they were known as the Three Top Ability Universities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were the sacred campuses that every Gaokao candidate dreamed of entering.\u003C\u002Fp>",1257,"2026-06-21T05:33:57.936Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","037b4d8db82de17d32ac09628f42f919675f3c332257d5ef936a11c8522eaa99","global-psychic-powers-starting-off-with-the-awak-chapter-28","global-psychic-powers-starting-off-with-the-awak-chapter-26",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fglobal-psychic-powers-starting-off-with-the-awak-cover.jpg"]
