Battle Through the Heavens: Attribute Draw, Top-Tier Comprehension at the Start
Chapter 8 Arrival at the Academy
A month and a half is neither a long nor a short time.
But for the newborns on the griffin's back, it was pure torture.
Once the initial excitement wears off, all that's left is the monotony of day after day.
During the day, I sit on the back of a griffin, looking at the monotonous scenery below. At night, I land at an unknown inn and fall asleep immediately.
During flight, there is often turbulence, so even if they are willing to cultivate, their efficiency is not particularly high.
Even though they cultivated at night, the occasional jolting from riding on the griffin's back during the day prevented them from getting proper rest.
"Brother Qin Yu, how much longer do you think it will take us to get there?"
Sheryl lay on the griffin's back, muttering weakly, her whole body like a puddle of mud.
By the time they took off, her initial excitement had completely dissipated, and she no longer had the energy to take advantage of Xiao Yu sitting next to her.
"Soon."
Qin Yu gave a casual reply, his gaze drifting into the distance.
During this time, his cultivation has not fallen behind, and just a week ago, he broke through to the four-star Dou Zhe level.
"I really envy you... you can fall asleep as soon as you close your eyes."
Qin Yu raised an eyebrow. It wasn't that he could fall asleep as soon as he closed his eyes, but rather that once he started thinking, he would involuntarily enter a special state.
At this time, he is completely unaware of external interference, and his entire body is conserving energy for his brain's operation.
However, precisely because he is unaware of external interference, sometimes it takes several calls before he comes to his senses.
Xue Ni turned to look at Xiao Yu beside her and saw that she was staring at Qin Yu's profile in a daze, so she couldn't help but wave her hand in front of her eyes.
"Hey, snap out of it!"
"Huh? What's wrong?"
"You're asking me what's wrong? Look at yourself looking like that, all lovestruck."
Xue Ni leaned close to Xiao Yu and whispered in her ear:
"Let me tell you, Qin Yu is the kind of guy whose mind is only focused on cultivation."
"If you wait for him to take the initiative, you might not even get a chance until graduation."
"Who...who wants to wait for him to take the initiative!"
Xiao Yu glared at Xue Ni, her voice unconsciously rising a few decibels.
Qin Yu turned his head and glanced at her.
"What's wrong?"
"No...it's nothing."
Xiao Yu quickly waved her hand, her blush deepening.
Qin Yu didn't press further, nodded, and continued to close his eyes to rest.
Seeing this, Xue Ni couldn't help but sigh, and said to Xiao Yu in a voice only the two of them could hear:
"See, I told you so? He didn't even think about it that way."
Xiao Yu bit her lip and remained silent.
After spending the past two months together, she believed she had figured out Qin Yu's personality.
This person, how should I put it...
It's not that he's cold-hearted; on the contrary, Qin Yu is easy to get along with, speaks kindly, and never makes anyone feel awkward.
The problem is, he treats everyone the same way.
Sometimes Xiao Yu would deliberately get closer or say something probing, but Qin Yu's reaction was always very indifferent.
It's like a stone. You pour water on it, the water is poured on, but the stone is still the same stone, and there's no reaction at all.
In reality, Qin Yu hadn't noticed Xiao Yu's earlier actions at all before he came to his senses.
"Does he... have absolutely no interest in matters of love and sex?"
Xiao Yu sometimes couldn't help but think that way, but it was impossible. Qin Yu genuinely liked looking at her legs.
"Never mind, let's take it slow."
Xiao Yu took a deep breath, trying to clear her mind of these distracting thoughts. Just then, she heard the voice of Instructor Ruolin from ahead.
"Attention everyone, Peace Town is just ahead."
"Peace Town?"
Many freshmen curiously peeked out.
Qin Yu also opened his eyes and looked ahead.
In the distance, nestled between two majestic mountains, lies a quiet little town.
The town is not large, but it is well-planned, and there are many pedestrians on the streets.
The most eye-catching thing is a large tree not far from the entrance of the town.
The tree was entirely black, its canopy spreading in all directions, exuding a chilling aura in the afterglow of the setting sun.
Between the branches, you can vaguely see some things hanging on them.
"What kind of tree is that?"
A freshman asked curiously.
Professor Ruolin glanced at the tree indifferently, her tone calm.
"The Dead Tree".
"The Dead Tree?"
"The bodies hanging above are those of people who caused trouble in Peace Town, including Dou Ling and even Dou Wang level experts."
As soon as Instructor Ruolin finished speaking, the expressions of all the new students changed.
The corpse of a powerful figure of that level was simply hung on a tree?
Qin Yu didn't react much; he already knew all this.
The Black Corner Region is the most chaotic place on the Dou Qi Continent, but Canaan Academy, located here, has carved out a relatively peaceful area.
Any powerful figure who once ran rampant in the Black Corner Region would have to behave themselves here.
The corpses hanging on that dead tree are the best warning.
The griffin landed outside the town, and Instructor Ruolin led everyone into the town on foot.
Qin Yu stood barefoot on the ground, feeling the warm and heavy power of the earth beneath his feet, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up slightly.
It's been two months.
After spending two months on the griffin's back, I finally stepped back onto the ground.
This feeling is like a fish returning to water; it makes you feel completely relaxed.
"Qin Yu, what's wrong with you...?"
"It's nothing, I just feel that it's better to be down-to-earth."
Instructor Ruolin nodded, recalling Qin Yu's previous cultivation methods, and understood.
However, Qin Yu broke through from a one-star Dou Zhe to a four-star Dou Zhe in just two months, which made her a little undecided.
A one-star warrior's talent level is three levels lower than a four-star warrior, meaning they could receive much better treatment at the academy.
But Qin Yu's situation... is truly unprecedented.
Forget it, let the higher-ups have their headaches. I'm just a teacher.
The group rested in the town for one night, and set off again early the next morning for their destination, Canaan.
Qin Yu stood outside the city and looked up.
This city is much larger than Wutan City. Its city walls alone are over ten zhang high, and you can vaguely see patrolling guards on the walls, each of whom has a strong presence.
At the city gate, many people were queuing to enter.
Instructor Ruolin led everyone directly through a special passage. The guards at the entrance immediately bowed respectfully upon seeing her badge.
"Professor Ruolin, thank you for your hard work."
"Um."
Instructor Ruolin nodded and led everyone into the city.
The sights inside the city dazzled many new students, with various shops lining both sides of the wide streets.
"This is Canaan..."
Instructor Ruolin led everyone through several streets and finally stopped in front of a huge building.
"This is the outer courtyard of Canaan Academy."
Ruolin turned around and looked at everyone.
"Next, I will take you to complete the enrollment procedures and assign you classes and dormitories."
"Once everything is settled, you will be officially students of Canaan Academy."
