Azure College, Dean's Office.

Dong Hongyu, the dean in his late teens, dressed in a loose and neat white robe, stood by the window with his hands behind his back, admiring the glorious sunset and the quiet sea at the end of the horizon. The silver hair, the criss-crossing ravines at the corners of his eyes, are all traces left on him by the vicissitudes of life. There was still a glow of wisdom in his deep, cloudy eyes, and some hope for the future.

He has been the Dean of Azure Academy for more than thirty years. Looking back on these decades, he can't help but sigh. In the years he has been the dean, Azure Academy has not improved much. Being in the most prosperous Tianhai Sea in the Seven Seas World, it is still too difficult to make Azure Academy famous. All he could do was try his best to maintain the normal operation of Azure Academy.

He already had the idea of abdicating. It's just that he hasn't thought about the successor yet.

Zhao Ping is certainly the number one master in the hospital. However, he is not serious enough and does not like to participate in decision-making, so it is not conducive to the academy's mediation with other academies in the Seven Seas World. Rather than being the dean, it is better to let him gallop on the front line and open up territory for the college. He is more like a vanguard general who swept Liuhe than a handsome man who commanded ten thousand armies.

Bridges, on the other hand, is not worth mentioning at all. But its ability to meet the source of left and right and be exquisite in all directions is really good. A small family, under his management, has a faint tendency to rise. It can be seen that he is indeed unique. It's a pity that this person has a bad reputation, is too maverick in dealing with things, and has his own set of rules of conduct. If he is made the dean, I really don't know what will become of Azure Academy.

As for Zheng Sinian...... Forget it, that wooden pedant thinks it's inappropriate.

Dong Hongyu pondered for a long time, but he couldn't make up his mind.

It seems that if it really doesn't work, we can only wait a few more years to see if there are any new people emerging before talking. I don't know if I can see someone from Azure Academy walking into the council hall of the Seven Seas Alliance Elders in my lifetime.

Just as he sighed, there were several dull knocks at the door from behind.

After he motioned to come in, two men came in through the door.

One is McOulett, the head of the college's external affairs specialist, and the other is Li Da, the tutor of the first teacher's class.

The two of them originally belonged to two departments that couldn't be beaten, and it was a coincidence that they appeared in the dean's office at the same time.

Dong Hongyu was not surprised to see the two of them, sitting upright on his chair, supporting his chin with both hands, and staring at the two people in front of him with his eyes slightly closed, with his own majesty. Li Da was summoned by him in advance, so he knew very well what was going on. It may be more important to specialize in the outside world. He first asked in a deep voice towards Macaulett:

"What's the matter? McCollette is the director. ”

When McOulet heard this, she bowed slightly, then raised her face full of brown beard, and replied in a magnetic bass:

"Dean, the schedule and location of this year's Seven Seas Rookie Challenge have been set. The virtual network preliminaries for the Rookie Tournament will be held from the beginning of July to the end of September, as usual. The venue of the main competition is the Starfall Alliance in the Star Sea Region. The time is October. McCollett's tone was rather respectful.

"Why the Starfall Alliance? Isn't it the turn of the Flying Snow Academy? Could it be ......"

"The dean is wise. A new interstellar space-time node has appeared in the star region. The leader of the Starfall Alliance proposed to the Council of Elders of the Seven Seas that the right to operate this interstellar space-time node be used as a prize for the champion of this rookie competition. The Council of Elders immediately passed a resolution and announced its decision to hold a main tournament in the Starfall Alliance. ”

"Sure enough!" Dong Hongyu savored the hidden message. He understood that as a member of the Seven Seas Alliance Elders' Council, the Starfall Alliance Alliance Leader had a close relationship with several of them, so it shouldn't be difficult to facilitate this matter. And this also means that there may be some great newcomers born in the Starfall Alliance. Otherwise, the Starfall Alliance would not be so confident.

"I understand ......" Then Dong Hongyu's gaze turned to Li Da, who had been waiting for a long time, "Macaulett, let's take a look at whether there are any surprises for this year's newcomers." The next few years will be the year of the big contract...... Li Da. ”

"Okay, Dean." Macaulet turned sideways and faced Li Da beside him, with a cold expression, as if he was not expecting it.

Li Da was originally standing beside him solemnly, but at this time it was his turn to report, and said in a slightly excited voice:

"Back to the dean, in addition to the successful completion of all members of this year's Class A, there are a few good seedlings. I believe that this year's students should be worth looking forward to. ”

Upon hearing this, Macaulet said gloomily:

"Li Da, it's not worth saying much about the full pass. On the contrary, it is the shame of our college that some students cannot meet the standards. Over the years, there have always been students who have fallen behind, isn't it a dereliction of duty on your part as a mentor? ”

"No matter how good a mentor is, there are always students with too poor foundation who can't pass the assessment of Master A. Not to mention our college, even the first university in Tianhai, there is no guarantee that all staff will meet the standards every year! Li Da heard McHualet's criticism, and argued a few words unwillingly.

"Eh, Li Da. McAulet is right, our results over the years have not been ideal. First of all, who do you think are the promising students? Dong Hongyu stopped Li Da's words in a timely manner. He wasn't in the mood to listen to the two arguing.

"Yes. Dean! Although Li Da still couldn't swallow this breath, he replied helplessly, "Zhao Ruo's physical agility has reached the third-level level, and his perception has also reached the third-level level. Rodric, on the other hand, is the fourth level of perception and the third level of physique. In addition, Si Shanyu's perception and strength have reached the third level, and his physique is slightly weaker, but he also has the second level. It is believed that these three people will be the fastest students in this class to reach the level of intermediate A division. ”

"Oh, Zhao Ruo...... Who is Zhao Ping? When Dong Hongyu heard Zhao Ruo, he seemed to be a little interested.

"It's Zhao Ping's brother." Li Dagong replied.

"Well, that's kind of a headshot. I will inform Zhao Ping and ask him to take care of his good brother. You guys go down......" After speaking, Dong Hongyu waved his hand and let the two leave.

……

Lu Gaoqing's appearance did not affect Xun Qiu and Lotte Yu's interest in eating, and after devouring the things on the table, they returned to the student dormitory satisfied.

The student dormitory of Azure Academy is not bad. Especially in the A division class, the specifications are the highest. Not only is there one room, but it can barely be called a one-bedroom apartment.

Looking at the bright and comfortable room, Xun Qiu was almost drunk. Today's beautiful living conditions, more than a week ago, he could not have even dreamed of it. No, as long as he can sleep peacefully, it is a blessing, so how can he talk about sweet dreams?

Sitting alone in the room at this time, he had the leisure to pay attention to the strange A-level reward, Brown Alchemy.

As soon as he received the reward, Brown's alchemy turned into a puff of information that quickly disappeared into his mind. In the next moment, he had already deeply understood the basic content of Brown's alchemy.

He had thought that this was some kind of alchemy from ancient times, something magical like turning stones into gold. Looking back at it a little now, it doesn't seem to be.

Brown's alchemy is not alchemy in the traditional sense, and it is perhaps more appropriate to call it metallurgy. This is a completely new technology that can be used for metal smelting at room temperature. The energy consumption is very different from pyrometallurgy. Moreover, it is completely different from hydrometallurgy and electrometallurgy in the popular sense.

Xun Qiu was deeply shocked by this alchemy. By his standards, this is magical alchemy that belongs to the world of science.

The only flaw is that there are dozens of raw materials used in this method. Also, for each different ore, the recipe required will be slightly different. Not to mention that most of the material was unheard of by him.

In a word, except for lamenting that the magic of this method is indeed worthy of an A-level reward, he can't use it at all for the time being.

Immediately, he shifted his focus to perception.

In fact, it is very conflicting for something as mysterious as perception to appear in a world where technology is thriving. However, through the virtual network terminal in his dormitory, after gaining a general understanding of the world on the virtual network, he understood why perception appeared in this world.

This world is called the Seven Seas World by the people here.

The whole world is divided into seven seas. There are large and small continents in each sea. However, these continents, in his opinion, are similar to a large island. I don't know why, there are no particularly large continents in the Seven Seas World. Rather, like now, there are countless small continents scattered all over the place. And the distance between the various continents is not small. The distance between the various seas is even more far away. In ancient times, before the rise of technology, people crossed the sea by boat to the continent next door. It's just a long way, and it takes more than half a year to go back and forth.

This problem, which has plagued the world of the Seven Seas for many years, has finally been completely solved after it was discovered at the time and space node.

It is these ubiquitous space-time nodes of the Seven Seas World that unite the entire Seven Seas World into a whole. Any continent that reaches a certain level of area must have space-time nodes. The people of the Seven Seas World have achieved a great fusion of worlds by shuttling back and forth between time and space. Such a convenient time travel made the people of the Seven Seas world completely abandon sailing.

There are two levels of space-time nodes. The first-level space-time node can only shuttle within the planet. And each secondary space-time node leads to a fixed extraterrestrial world in addition to the interior of the planet. Therefore, the second-level space-time node is also called the interstellar space-time node. In addition, there are some interstellar space-time nodes that are special and unidirectional, and cannot realize shuttle within the planet.

The reason why the Seven Seas World was able to discover the nodes of time and space and master the technology of time and space travel was entirely due to a sage from an extraterrestrial world. The sage, who was revered as the Holy Ancestor of the Seven Seas by later generations, was shocked by the vastness of the Seven Seas World and the richness of the time and space nodes, and resolutely chose to stay in this world, and founded the first school in the Seven Seas World: Ask the World, so as to spread the time and space travel technology. Later, under his call, the Seven Seas World was divided into seven seas, and the Council of Elders of the Seven Seas Alliance was established.

Now, hundreds of years later, that sage is long gone, and the glory of the world is long gone, and it has disappeared from the House of Representatives. However, its outstanding historical status is still unshakable. No matter how the members of the Seven Seas Alliance Elders' Church change, and no matter what the status and strength of the world is, the world can always occupy one of the fifteen seats in the Elders' Church.

The world of the Seven Seas has gradually entered the era of interstellar travel under the supervision of the Council of Elders of the Seven Seas Alliance. The benefits of time travel are significant. After a few decades of pioneering, the world of the seven seas gradually developed rapidly with almost infinite resources.

And the most commendable of them, in addition to mechas, is the number of cards.

The extraterrestrial world where card making technology was discovered was called the quicksand world by later generations.

It was a terrible world with no fixed continent, and its inhabitants lived in a strange spherical space. Beyond the spherical space, there is endless quicksand. They can never stay in their familiar places and are real wanderers. And because of the uniqueness of their living space, storing resources is a very nerve-wracking thing for them. As a result, it took thousands of years for the people of the quicksand world to develop a very strange space storage technology. Through this technology, they are able to store all kinds of supplies in a small card.

And the most important thing to make this kind of card is perception.
