Chapter 103: Heading to the Star Tower
After staying in school for two days and receiving the Stone of the True World, Chu Cheng went home again.

The news that he had been admitted to a top university had already spread back, and as expected, the family held a banquet to celebrate.

Although he had no interest in this kind of activity, he still cooperated with a smile because of the 100 gold bonus offered by the clan leader.

Of course my father and stepmother were there too, their smiles seemed forced.

During the evening rest period, his father wanted to talk to him, apparently wanting to ease the relationship.

Let's talk about it, but there's no need to ease the relationship.

It's too late to regret now.

After staying in the family for three days, Chu Cheng returned to school with 100 gold.

It is worth mentioning that the 50 gold interest-free loan he owed to the family now does not need to be repaid, as it has been waived, which is equivalent to a total scholarship of 150 gold given by the family.

After returning to school, Chu Cheng immediately repaid the 20 gold loan from Yuntai City First Bank in advance, a total of 21 gold and 50 silver.

At this point, he still has 287 gold in cash.

He didn't stay in school for long. A week later, he contacted senior Fang Xi and prepared to go to school.

There are two ways to get to the main campus of the Star Tower. One is to take a magic airship and fly there slowly. This speed is very fast and it takes more than a month to fly continuously.

Another method is to teleport to the public transit realm through the Chaos Realm Gate of the City Hall, then teleport to TS City from the portal of the public transit realm, and then transfer to the Star Tower from the exclusive realm of the academy in TS City.

Senior Fang Xi had given a heads-up in advance, and when Chu Cheng arrived at the Chaos Realm Gate of Yuntai City Hall, he went directly through the special passage to enter the public realm.

In the main world of human civilization, traveling long distances is very convenient.

Taking advantage of the ubiquitous nature of the Chaos Realm, one can enter the Chaos Realm's fixed public domain from point A, and then teleport directly from the public domain to point B. It only takes an hour to cross a distance of tens of thousands of kilometers.

Theoretically, it is possible to teleport directly from Yuntai City to the distant Star Tower, but Yuntai City is just a small city, and there is no direct route to the Star Tower from the public area of ​​the City Hall. Only TS City, the capital of the province, has such a route.

Walk through the corridor that looks like a subway platform, the stairs, and through the gate, and you will appear in TS City.

As soon as I came out, I saw Senior Sister Fang Xi standing in front of the platform holding a sign and waiting. She also saw Chu Cheng at a glance and waved to her:

"This way!"

Chu Cheng walked over, Fang Xi waved for him to follow, and said as she led the way:
"Would you like something to eat?"

"No, I'm full now."

"Okay then, let's go to the portal now."

"Senior, are you going there too?"

"Yes, now that the work here is done, of course I have to go back."

"So fast?"

"Well, TS City has only recruited three new students this year. The other two will be taken care of by other colleagues. I am only responsible for taking you there."

Chu Cheng
"Wow, one-on-one service!"

My eyes couldn't help but fall on the back of the senior sister. The senior sister was obviously also an adventer. She had a tall figure with perfect curves, especially round buttocks and legs, and a delicate face.
Gee!

I don't know if the senior student didn't notice or was used to such looks, she said as she walked:
"There is still more than a month and a half before the next semester starts. It's not too early for you to go there now. You can first decide on a mentor. You are specially recruited by the school, so you can choose a legendary professor as your mentor. Do you know any?"

Chu Cheng immediately retracted his gaze and shook his head:

"No, did the senior sister introduce anyone?"

Fang Xi flipped his hand and handed him a crystal tablet:
"It contains the information of all the current legendary instructors in the tower, including their expertise, personal characteristics, and information of other students under their name. Take a look."

"Thank you, Senior Sister." Chu Cheng took the tablet, opened it, and examined it carefully.

After browsing for a while, Chu Cheng suddenly asked:

"Didn't they say they would assign me a legendary mentor? There are even ones above legendary here. Can I choose?"

“You can choose.”

Fang Xi explained seriously:
"We have more than just these legendary mentors in the Starry Tower. We also have many who are above legendary, and even gods and demons. The school promised you that you will be assigned a legendary mentor, but if you have the ability to win the favor of those higher-level mentors, you can naturally choose them."

"Oh!"

Chu Cheng understood that what the school promised him was a guarantee, but if he had the ability to be noticed by a god-demon-level mentor, it would be his own ability.

"But don't get your hopes up too high. All instructors above the Legend level are busy with further advancement and generally don't accept new students."

"Ok!"

"I'll take a look."

He really hadn't thought too much about this. It was indeed better to have a teacher who was stronger than a legendary person, but if the teacher was busy breaking through the realm and couldn't take care of himself, then there was no point in becoming his disciple.

Neither of them spoke after that. He concentrated on checking the information of these tutors one by one, preparing to choose one from them.

After wandering around, we soon arrived at the exclusive transit area of ​​the Star Tower.

After some inspection, they entered and found a base inside, which was connected to the portals of more than a dozen provincial capitals.

From this base, go to another base not far away, pass through the portal, and the Star Tower appears again.

A huge light gate stands on the huge platform, with streams of light rushing into the sky. The dome is an inverted transparent bowl of light, and outside the bowl of light is a sky full of stars, just like night.

There were several staff members in uniform standing next to the portal. Fang Xi walked up to them and said a few words. He took out a badge and handed it to him:
"This is a temporary pass, valid for one month. I'll take you to register first. Once you get your student ID, you won't need this."

"Excuse me, senior."

"This is my job."

Outside the platform is a huge square with many classical-style buildings around it. Further away are wizard towers surrounded by surging magical lights, with streams of light rising into the sky.

"Our school is not in the main world. It is in the void outside the main world. The only way to get out is through a portal."

Fang Xi took him down to the platform. There was a machine on the edge of the platform. She operated the light screen for a few times, and soon a round metal block popped out. She touched it lightly with her fingers a few times and threw it to the ground. The edges of the metal block bounced off layer by layer, and soon formed a metal disc with a diameter of about two meters suspended in the air one foot above the ground.

Fang Xi stood up and waved to him:

"Come up."

He stood on it, and complex light patterns appeared on the surface of the metal disc. A little bit of it slowly rose up, carrying them in a certain direction.

Flying high into the sky and looking past the tall and short buildings, Chu Cheng suddenly discovered that this was actually a city floating in the void.

To be precise, this is a floating city floating in the void.

And there is more than one such floating city.

It’s just that the distance is too far, and only the outline of the floating city beyond its boundaries can be vaguely seen.

The disc carried them straight in a certain direction and landed at a wizard tower on the edge of the floating city.

“This is the new student registration office!”
