Chapter 243

At the sight of Zhou Yi, Jiang Churan's eyes lit up, and she swayed her way over to stand before him.

"Let's go, we'll ride down."

Zhou Yi said.

The three great dungeons of Suhang University were all housed inside the Dungeon Building.

And the Dungeon Building was located over by the Element Academy, requiring a ride to get there.

"Ride? No need, I'll take you."

With a flick of her jade-like hand, Jiang Churan's contracted magical beast was summoned forth.

It was a massive white tiger, its body length a full three or four meters!

Its shoulder height was also around a meter and a half!

Its entire body was pure muscle, and its back was extremely broad, easily accommodating two or three people.

"Brother Zhou Yi, let's go."

Jiang Churan swung herself up onto its back, and seeing this, Zhou Yi did not refuse either.

He leaped up and seated himself on the white tiger's back.

Breathing in the strong masculine scent drifting from behind her, Jiang Churan couldn't help but blush.

Forcefully suppressing the stirring in her heart, she called out in a low voice:

"Xiaobai, go!"

"Roar—"

Letting out a roar, this massive white tiger spread its four limbs and swiftly carried the two of them away.

Jiang Churan's white tiger magical beast was fully named the Dark Calamity Concealed Bai Hu.

A dark-attribute magical beast, its aptitude was Gold Rank.

It had been purchased from the magical beast market one month ago.

After a month's time, this Dark Calamity Concealed Bai Hu had already grown from a cub into a behemoth with a body length of three to four meters.

Zhou Yi's Pojun Battle Axe, combined with his gear and his own body weight, came to roughly 600 kilograms.

Adding Jiang Churan's own body weight along with her weapon and gear, the two of them together came to roughly 800 kilograms.

If it were an ordinary magical beast that had only been growing for a month, it really might not be able to carry that load.

But for the Dark Calamity Concealed Bai Hu, this was a mere trifle.

Not only that, but the white tiger's running speed was also extremely swift.

In less than ten minutes, they arrived before the Dungeon Building located by the Element Academy.

Compared to the other buildings on campus, the Dungeon Building's floor height was not particularly tall, only 20 meters.

But its scale was extremely massive, as large as four or five main sports fields stitched together!

Seen from afar, it looked just like a flat, crouching behemoth.

When Zhou Yi and Jiang Churan arrived before the Dungeon Building, the time was around 8 o'clock.

For Suhang University students whose morning classes began at 9, this hour was still a bit early.

Even so, outside the Dungeon Building there were already quite a few students who, like the two of them, had arrived early.

Most of these people had also come riding their own magical beast mounts.

One-horned giant rhinoceroses, crimson flame lions......

All manner of magical beasts could be found.

There were even some students of the Machinist profession who had come directly riding their own combat robots, roughly three to four meters tall......

Zhou Yi suspected that, were it not for the school's explicit height restrictions on robots, these machinists might have driven over in Gao Das over ten meters tall.

"The Abyss-tier dungeon is open, everyone's come to grind the dungeon."

Having recalled the Dark Calamity Concealed Bai Hu into her contract space, Jiang Churan curiously surveyed her surroundings.

Under the Appraisal Technique, it could be seen that many people had not hidden their personal information.

Most people's levels were generally around 21 or 22, sophomores and juniors, and not a single freshman from the first year could be seen.

Of course......

This was only natural.

After all, even the dungeon with the lowest level requirement, the Lower layer of the forest, required at least level 17 to enter.

Among the entire freshman population, the number of people who had reached level 17, herself included, was probably only a handful.

"Screech—"

Suddenly, the cry of a massive flying bird exploded from the distant sky like spring thunder.

A huge shadow with outstretched wings rapidly flew toward them.

It soon landed before the Dungeon Building.

It was an incomparably massive black giant eagle, about six or seven meters tall, its enormous head held high.

Even with its wings folded behind it, they still measured nearly four meters across!!

"Black Feather Eagle! A Gold Rank magical beast! With a body that big, it must be at least level 22 or 23, right?"

"Tsk tsk, raising a magical beast to level 22 or 23, they must have poured a ton of resources into it."

"I know who this eagle's owner is—it's Shi Mingxuan, a sophomore."

Internal group: 5192 (2) 43

"Shi Mingxuan? So it's him, no wonder he can afford to raise such a huge magical beast so extravagantly......"

"......"

The larger a magical beast's body, the more meat it consumes per meal.

Some of the larger demonic pets could devour over a thousand jin of meat in a single meal!

For ordinary students, resources weren't even enough for their own use — how could they possibly set aside half to buy food for their demonic pets?

Besides, for most students, demonic pets were only used as a means of transport.

They would let them grow naturally to adulthood, and a level of around 11 or 12 was considered good enough.

They wouldn't bother feeding them precious demonic cores or heavenly materials and earthly treasures.

Of course, there were also quite a few relatively well-off students who would cultivate their own demonic pets.

And the owner of this Black Feather Eagle, Shi Mingxuan, was a sophomore at the school.

His strength was extremely formidable — he had already reached level 21, and his sequence ranking was also quite high.

Wanting to feed a single demonic pet was naturally more than within his means.

Amid the discussions of the surrounding students, a figure clad in light gray heavy armor appeared.

Shi Mingxuan, bearing a shield and a single-handed sword on his back, flipped down from the Black Feather Eagle's back.

He recalled his demonic pet and, together with several students who had long been waiting there, walked into the Instance Building.

"Let's go too."

Seeing this, Zhou Yi withdrew his gaze and, together with Jiang Churan, strode toward the entrance of the Instance Building.

"Beep, beep."

When passing through the entrance of the first-floor hall, two crisp detection sounds rang out, and only then were the two able to successfully enter the first-floor hall.

Within Suhang University, besides students, there were also some people from outside the school.

For example, the office of the Alchemist Society located in the Elixir Department.

There were many such places within the school, which naturally led to people from outside the school coming and going.

Some unimportant places in the school could naturally allow these people to enter freely.

But for important locations like the Instance Building, identity had to be confirmed before entry was permitted.

"The Abyss Rank challenge has opened! But each attempt costs an extra 200 credits — way too expensive!"

"Just 200 credits? If you refresh the record for an Abyss-rank instance, you have a chance at a hidden reward!"

"Hehe, no matter what you guys think, I'm definitely going to give it a try later."

"......"

The moment Zhou Yi and Jiang Churan entered the first-floor hall, a wave of noisy chatter came rushing toward them.

Looking around, scattered throughout the first-floor hall on the various resting sofas, there were at least two or three hundred students sitting.

"So many people!"

Jiang Churan was slightly taken aback.
