Chapter 297: Exchange Tournament Opening Ceremony

"I'll find a chance to go out and buy a new one later, no rush."

The entire exchange tournament's grand finals would last nearly a month or so.

During this period, Zhou Yi could easily go out and swap for a new weapon.

After all......

His bank card still held quite a bit of Zhongxia coin; buying a decent Gold Rank weapon would be more than enough.

Stowing the battle axe into his backpack space, Zhou Yi casually put on his shirt.

The fourth floor wasn't occupied by him alone; basic appearances still needed to be kept in mind.

Walking out of the training room, he heard the splashing of water from the bathroom on the right.

There was only one bathroom on the entire fourth floor, and right now, Jiang Churan was inside it.

"Girls really are troublesome when bathing — she's already been in there over half an hour and still hasn't finished......"

Zhou Yi was a bit helpless; with only one bathroom on the whole fourth floor, he'd have to wait until Jiang Churan was done before he could wash up.

Just as he shook his head, preparing to head back to the bedroom to rest for a bit, the sound of running water in the bathroom abruptly stopped.

Then with a whoosh the bathroom door opened, and Jiang Churan's uniquely gentle, pleasant voice rang out:

"Brother Zhou Yi, I'm done — you can go in~~~"

"Alright, I'll go in a bit......"

Zhou Yi instinctively turned his head, but the next scene made him slightly freeze.

He saw Jiang Churan wearing a summer short-sleeved pajama set, paired with a flush on her freshly bathed face — making her look especially enchanting.

After a brief freeze, he quickly came back to his senses and dry-coughed:

"28 I got it, you head back to the bedroom first, wait until your hair is blow-dried before coming out."

Saying that, Zhou Yi pulled his gaze back and went to the bedroom to grab his change of clothes.

"Why does Brother Zhou Yi seem a little strange, like he doesn't dare look at me straight on......

Is there something wrong with me?"

Jiang Churan instinctively looked down, and instantly discovered what was off.

At once her little face turned crimson like blood, and she fled back to her room as if running for her life.

"Although I brought plenty of clothes, not having to do laundry myself is just convenient."

Back in the bedroom, Zhou Yi took out his clothes from a square washing machine about a meter tall.

Unlike ordinary washing machines, this one didn't use tap water.

Instead, it had a cleaning magic array built directly inside — just supply power and it could wash.

Not only did it cut out many steps, it also reduced a lot of pollution.

Precisely because of this, compared to his previous life, the entire Blue Star could almost be said to have no pollution-related news at all......

"But only in Qingjing can ordinary people enjoy the convenience brought by such magical mechanical creations."

Qingjing City's technology was advanced; a new-type washing machine like this could be bought for just two or three thousand.

But in Suhang Province, you couldn't get one for less than ten thousand......

Taking his change of clothes, Zhou Yi quickly entered the bathroom.

"Splash splash~~"

Bathroom.

Clear warm water sprayed from the showerhead in billowing steam, flowing down over Zhou Yi's skin.

Washing away the sweat also made him feel his whole-body fatigue ease considerably.

Logically speaking, given a professional's physique, mere training shouldn't make one feel exhausted.

But Zhou Yi was entirely different.

In this single day, aside from eating, he had barely stepped out of the training room......

Buff skill releases, physical training — Zhou Yi hadn't paused for a single moment.

Apart from large-scale destructive skills that couldn't be unleashed indoors, like Divine Hand or Sacred Storm, he had cast nearly every skill at least twenty times!!

The repeated skill-release training had also squeezed that surging magic power inside him dry four or five times over.

"Although a skill's power and cooldown can only be enhanced or shortened by adding points to its lv level,

long, uninterrupted practice and casting can still let me release skills faster and more skillfully."

Among professionals, every second counts — especially for high-rank professionals, casting speed is even more crucial.

Although his A-rank talent, Quick Casting, granted Zhou Yi an unparalleled casting speed, he still wasn't satisfied with that.
