Good news?
Upon hearing Liang Dong’s words, Wu You and Han Yuan paused for a moment, then their faces showed a look of realization, they nodded their heads knowingly.
"It really is good news."
"What good news?"
If it were only Han Yuan talking about this, Lin Beichen might not be very interested, but since all three of his roommates were saying the same thing, he became a bit curious.
"It’s..."
"Hey hey hey, hold on."
Han Yuan quickly stepped forward and covered Liang Dong’s mouth to prevent him from spilling the good news, then he turned to Lin Beichen and said, "If you want to know the good news, you need to promise me one condition."
"Then I won’t listen."
Lin Beichen had already found a way to deal with Han Yuan; he just used his talent for ending conversations abruptly to stop the dialogue.
Han Yuan got anxious; he hadn’t even mentioned the condition yet, what was going on?!
However, before he could speak.
Wu You smiled and revealed the good news: "When you went out two days ago, the list of those going to Shenzhao University in the Divine Light Country for academic exchange this year was published, and your name is on it."
Every year around this time, Imperial Capital University would go to Shenzhao University in the Divine Light Country for academic exchange, it has become almost a tradition.
This was an important event for both schools.
Even Lin Beichen, who usually didn’t care about outside matters and only focused on cultivation, knew about this.
"My name is on the list?"
Lin Beichen looked surprised.
The configuration for the yearly academic exchange had always been fixed: the principal would take a few teachers, along with the excellent students from the second and third years.
He had never heard of any year taking a freshman along.
The three roommates nodded.
Liang Dong laughed, "At first, we thought we were seeing things, so we checked the list several times, and indeed, it was you."
Han Yuan wore an envious, jealous, and somewhat acid expression, "If you weren’t the number one in the history of the college entrance exams, with all your family information dug up, I’d believe you were the principal’s illegitimate child. You never attend classes, always ask for leave to go out, yet the school doesn’t hold it against you and even takes you to Divine Light Country for academic exchange, I really..."
He couldn’t continue, feeling that further talk would just make him die of envy.
By now, Lin Beichen was pretty certain that he was going to Divine Light Country for academic exchange and thought to himself this was indeed good news for him.
It’s well-known that Divine Light Country has the world’s largest active volcano – Jingli Mountain.
This Jingli Mountain is located in Hengban County, where Shenzhao University is.
If he were to go for academic exchange...
He would definitely have a chance to visit Jingli Mountain.
To confirm whether his speculations were correct, the world’s largest active volcano would certainly be the most authoritative.
If he couldn’t sense a denser concentration of fire elements at the world’s largest active volcano, then there was no need to mention other active volcanoes.
"Where can I see the list?"
Lin Beichen had only heard about the academic exchange, but understanding where to check the list was beyond him.
Liang Dong, at the neighboring desk, operated on his computer for a while and then brought up a page.
The entire page displayed just an announcement.
First, the list of personnel for academic exchange to Divine Light Country was announced, listing a dozen names, with Lin Beichen’s name at the end.
Below the series of names were instructions for the upcoming academic research trip, advising everyone to prepare their passports and personal belongings, and so on.
Confirming the list himself and seeing his name on it, Lin Beichen was now entirely sure he was going to Divine Light Country.
Leaving on the 8th?
There were still five days left.
Lin Beichen didn’t want to waste time. He quickly arranged his schedule for the upcoming days: starting from tomorrow, he would continue cultivating until the day before departure, then buy some things and pack up.
The next day.
Lin Beichen arrived at the gymnasium.
fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
On his way back to the dormitory yesterday, he had already reported the gymnasium’s issues to the logistics department.
To be fair, the logistics department of Imperial Capital University responds quickly.
Even for an abandoned gymnasium...
Today, the gymnasium’s main door had been replaced with glass, the steps in front had been repaired, and they were covered with boards to prevent anyone from stepping on the cement, dirtying their shoes, and damaging the still-drying steps.
At the moment, quite a few people were gathered outside the gymnasium.
It had completely returned to the state of being surrounded by spectators as it was some time ago.
This was all thanks to the discussions on the Imperial Capital University forum yesterday, informing students that Lin Beichen had returned to the gymnasium with something new worth observing.
"Lin Beichen looks quite normal today."
"Yes, yesterday his whole body was red, no idea what was going on."
"Do you think the same thing will happen again today?"
"..."
The murmurs of discussion continued outside the gymnasium.
Lin Beichen ignored it all, focusing solely on his cultivation.
Absorbing the fire elements in nature!
With yesterday’s experience, Lin Beichen could now precisely control the amount of fire elements to temper his heart.
Soon, the fire elements were fully gathered.
Without the slightest hesitation.
Directly began tempering!
"Boom——!"
The sound of flames exploding seemed to come from his heart once again.
This time, Lin Beichen didn’t cry out in pain; with the tempering of the previous day, he was now well-prepared both mentally and physically.
