Three days later, the airship arrived at its destination, Hearst, the magical capital of the Central Territory, the capital of the Magical Alliance.

The prosperity here gave Ling Xuan a strange illusion, as if he had arrived in a metropolis on earth, full of high-rise buildings with church-like spires. Some of the tall buildings were still shining with neon multicolored light, which was carved on them, and the brilliance emitted by some elemental circles.

The landing of the magic airship, in the core of the city, Yuna volunteered to be a guide, Ling Xuan followed the girl to see the largest place in Hearst: the Sage Magic Tower.

Seeing the giant blue tower that seemed to be a pavilion in the sky, suspended in the sky, hundreds of meters high, surrounded by a large number of magic circle apertures, and the top of which reached straight into the sky, Ling Xuan was dumbfounded, he actually saw a magical building flying in the sky!

"How's that, isn't it shocking?"

Yuna covered her mouth and smiled, many people came to the capital for the first time, and when they saw the Sage Magic Tower flying in the sky, they would be shocked with the same expression as Ling Xuan.

"This is the pride of the Magic Alliance Country, because there is a piece of the most magical treasure in the entire continent, the Eternal Crystal, as the power, so the magic tower will never fall. The Eternal Crystal absorbs energy from heaven and earth all the time, and at the same time releases energy to drive various magic circles in the magic tower. ”

Ling Xuan's heart was cold, the Eternal Crystal, has such a magical effect?

"Wouldn't it be that if I hadn't taken the Eternal Crystal, the pride of this magical alliance country, the Sage Magic Tower would have fallen from the sky? Even if the name of Mother Vana is announced, they will not be willing to hand over the gem. Ling Xuan saw again that under the suspended magic tower, there were many buildings.

The area of each floor of the magic tower is at least not much smaller than that of the indoor stadium, and there are many buildings below, and if it falls, it will definitely kill many people.

"First in this city, settle down, enter the Blackstone Academy, and then gather some intelligence."

With Yuna's status and wealth, of course, it is impossible to live in the core of the city, so she took Ling Xuan to the Blackstone Academy to pay the registration fee, and at the same time did a talent test, and learned that Ling Xuan had no place to stay, and the girl hurriedly invited her to live in her house temporarily.

It was one of the more populous areas of the city.

Now Ling Xuan knew that Yuna and her younger brother were originally from the countryside, and their parents died three years ago, and they came to join their relatives here. But the relatives didn't want to live at home with two more burdens, but they were still affectionate, and bought a set of two huts for the two of them in the civilian area, so that the two could settle down.

Later, with the small fortune he received from the sale of his family property in the countryside, Yuna sent his younger brother to Blackstone Academy. With the help of some relatives, he opened a flower shop in the city, selling flowers grown by himself in the small garden outside the house to support the two of them.

It's winter, and the flowers in the garden have long since died, so work as a waiter on a magic airship.

Ling Xuan listened, and couldn't help but have some respect in his heart, ordinary people, and ordinary people's strength, three years ago Yuna was still a fourteen-year-old girl, with immature shoulders, it was really not easy to carry the life of two people.

After carefully inquiring about the Magic Council, the Sage Magic Tower, and other information, Ling Xuan fell asleep.

Every morning, Yuna would get up before dawn and dig out the ground in the small garden to plant the autumn flowers when they withered, a kind of potato-like food that ripens in winter. The rest of the time, busy cooking, laundry, cleaning, sewing, busy.

Seeing the girl's hard work, Ling Xuan sighed a little, in any world, it is not easy for ordinary people to live!

On the third day of living here, it was time to enter the Black Rock Academy, and Ling Xuan's previous talent test could naturally pass, and the basic strength, speed, flexibility, etc., displayed by this body, made the tutor in charge of the test a little dumbfounded.

Before leaving, Ling Xuan opened the space belt, which originally contained 100,000 gold coins, and spent a lot of money on griffins and magic airships along the way.

There are still five million in the crystal card, but it is more troublesome to go to the city center to exchange it, so Ling Xuan poured out all the tens of thousands of gold coins left in the belt, looking at the pile of gold coins on the ground, Yuna's eyes were dull in surprise.

"You...... What are you doing, I can't want! Unexpectedly, the girl shook her head in a panic.

"I didn't count the exact amount, but it is estimated that it is only 20,000 or 30,000, which is not much, just my room and board expenses for these days."

"I ......" Twenty or thirty thousand gold coins are ordinary civilians, who have worked hard for ten years without eating or drinking, and for Yuna now, of course they need this money. With this money, at least her brother's tuition fees will be enough for the next few years, but in her heart, she has a strong resistance to these money, and it seems that if she accepts it, she will be looked down upon by the other party.

"You once said that your dream is to learn magic, and these will help you achieve your dreams! If you have a dream, you will be favored by the gods, and you can think that this is the reward of the gods for you. Ling Xuan persuaded him.

Finally accepting the money and locking it firmly in the box, Yuna calmed down, looked at Ling Xuan embarrassedly, and suddenly blushed.

Demacia's appearance can only be regarded as ordinary in the Mana Continent, but for a rich and well-intentioned man, how can an ordinary girl like Yuna not be impressed? It's a pity that for Ling Xuan, this is just a very innocent girl who helps casually.

With only tens of thousands of gold coins, the flame sword he refined casually can be sold for 50,000, for a civilian girl, this wealth may be something that changes her fate!

When he arrived at the Black Stone Academy, Ling Xuan, accompanied by his guide, went to the dormitory first, and found that it was a multi-person dormitory, so he simply spent a lot of money to live in a two-story luxury small building for one person, so that no matter how much cultivation or anything else, it would be much more convenient.

Seeing that Ling Xuan was actually so rich, and he showed the fire fighting spirit he had, the school judged that this was a descendant of a nobleman who had come to Blackstone Academy and wanted to further his studies.

Such people are very common, and even some foreign nobles will go to Blackstone Academy to study.

After a busy day, he went through various procedures, and the next day, before dawn, Ling Xuan left the small building and went to the training ground. He inquired about the news in the dormitory yesterday that Yuna's younger brother, a teenager named Belen, would go to the training ground every day before dawn to exercise.

Arriving at the training ground, Ling Xuan recognized the appearance described by others at a glance, and it was indeed very distinctive, with brown hair, and a slightly immature complexion, but he was tall and strong enough to be 1.9 meters tall, and he was full of muscles!

Now, Belén has a lot of weight-bearing sandbags strapped to his body, running in the biting cold wind.

When this muscular man stopped running with weights, and took a heavy black knife, he slashed in the void more than a hundred times before he stopped panting, and Ling Xuan walked over: "Are you Yuna's younger brother Belen?" ”

"Yes, may I ask who you are?"

"I'm a friend of your sister, and now I'm also studying at Blackstone Academy, Yuna asked me to bring you something."

After taking the burden handed over, seeing a set of newly sewn coarse cloth clothes and pants inside, a letter from Yuna, and a small bag of gold coins, Belen said a little shyly: "It's really troublesome for you, Blackstone Academy is not allowed to go out casually, I haven't seen her for more than a month, is my sister okay?" ”

"Very good, she told you not to worry, cultivate hard, and strive to reach the gold level and get ahead."

Ling Xuan saw the sparse people on the training ground, and sighed a little: "It's the snow moon now, it's such a cold day, you are exercising here before dawn, you are really hard." ”

Belen smiled: "It's not hard compared to my sister, besides, I'm a civilian, I don't have enough resources, compared to other classmates in school, talent is nothing, if I don't work hard, I will fall behind, if I am kicked out of the school, how can I be worthy of my sister's dedication to me." ”

"With such a heart, your sister will be happy to know about it."

The surnames of this pair of sisters and brothers are very simple, Ling Xuan looked at Belen's heavy knife, the polished blade was bright, and he obviously cherished it, but the material was just ordinary high-carbon steel.

"By the way, I heard your sister say that in school, what you practiced was not an ordinary non-caste fighting spirit, but a fire surname?"

"Sister, I'll tell you this?" Belen was slightly surprised, and then nodded again, "Yes, I was very lucky, maybe the mentor saw that I worked hard enough, and gave me a chance to choose the elemental fighting qi, which is much higher than having ordinary fighting energy." ”

Ling Xuan untied the sword at his waist and pulled the straight blade-like sword body out of the leather sheath, revealing the magic pattern on the sword: "This is a magic sword, excellent grade, the name is the Flame Sword, the sword contains the surname Fire, inspire with thoughts, the sword body will ignite flames, give it to you." ”

"Fine-grade magic sword!"

Belen was not overjoyed, but said with some vigilance: "Why did you give me such a precious thing...... What is the relationship between you and your sister? ”

He almost thought that Ling Xuan was pursuing his sister, but Yuna's appearance was not outstanding, a magic sword was at least sixty or seventy thousand gold coins, and others couldn't afford to pay such a price to impress his sister.

"It's just an ordinary friend, you have to misunderstand, this is my reward for seeing that you work very hard. Although born ordinary, as long as you work hard, there is hope for change, and those who work hard should be rewarded. ”

Ling Xuan inserted the flame sword back into the leather sheath and stuffed it into Belen's hand, and just wanted to turn around and leave, he said: "If anyone doubts how your sword came from and caused any trouble, report my name and let the other party come to me, I live in the luxurious student area, my name is Galen." ”

Leaving the training ground, Ling Xuan went to the library of the Blackstone Academy, where there was a lot of information about the Magic Alliance, and what he was most concerned about was a strange news he learned from Yuna.

The Sage Magic Tower suspended in mid-air is said to be a creation of the Magic Empire, when the Magic Empire, in its heyday, in order to recruit the top talents in the continent and show the strength of the Magic Empire, it once made an oath of challenge.

As long as someone challenges the Sage Magic Tower and can walk to the top of the tower, then the Magic Empire will meet any of the other party's requirements, as long as the conditions can be achieved, they will definitely meet the requirements!

The legendary sage Wellington, who used the Abyss Scroll to summon a demon lord with shit transport, once challenged. At that time, the Magic Empire was already in the twilight of the West Mountain, but in order to fulfill this promise, he still dispatched a magician army to help him restore the country.

The collapse of the Magic Empire and the departure of the Wizard Legion were also directly related, and later, the Magic Alliance inherited the status of the Magic Empire and the Oath of Challenge.

The Sage Magic Tower has a total of seventeen floors, and the top seven floors are where the challenge is held.

In the past two hundred years, there have been four people who have challenged the Sage's Magic Tower, at most only on the fifth layer, you must know that the person who made the oath of challenge cannot be an ordinary powerhouse, each of them is well-known in the continent, but they can only fight to the fifth layer, you can see how difficult the challenge is!

Ling Xuan's heart was pounding, he could meet any request! If you ask for the Eternal Crystal, I'm afraid it's a little difficult, but in the Ice and Snow Trident of the Magic Council, this can definitely be obtained.

This is the only way to get a powerful artifact other than stealing and robbing and offending the behemoth of the Magic Council.

"The Magical Society...... and the strong people in the city of Hearst, there are still a lot, and there are demigods...... Anyway, the Pledge of Challenge, I'm going to give it a try! It's just a good time to see how strong the body is now after it has the way of freezing! Let's also see what the strength of the powerhouses of the entire Magic Alliance Country is, and whether they can resist me! ”
