Occupying the --- of the entire Doro Empire, the Golden Valley City is the third largest city in the Doro Empire, with an area of more than 5,000 square kilometers. Because the abundant rice accounts for nearly half of the country's total grain, it has an important strategic position and reputation as the "granary of the empire" in the country of Doluo. The famous school for young souls, Bacon School, is located on the outskirts of this giant city.

Mu Zilei and his entourage walked out of the cat car workshop, and Shi Chisha and Shi Haoyu left first. Shadow Dance hesitated, but still silently followed Mu Zilei and Ghost Tiger.

When they came to the post square, a dignified-looking but conceited man with shiny black hair greeted them with an arrow.

"I'm all first-year freshmen, right? My name is Ouyang Jie, the second-year prefect, and I'm the person in charge of entertaining freshmen here at the post station. You can call me Senior Brother, but I prefer to be called a prefect. Mu Zilei noticed that he was talking and turned his body slightly, so that people could see clearly the long badge with the word "prefect" pinned to his chest.

"This elementary school girl's scorpion braids are so beautiful, I don't know what the name of the school girl is?" Ouyang Jie looked at the shadow dance behind Mu Zilei as if he had suddenly discovered some treasure, and he seemed to be deeply attracted by the shadow dance.

"Shadow Dance. Feeling the scorching gaze, Shadow Dance's willow eyebrows furrowed, and a cold voice sounded.

"Good name, I don't know where the junior sister is from?" He straightened the badge on his chest as if unintentionally, even though the badge was already worn neatly.

Shadow Dance's brow furrowed even tighter, and her jade lips twitched slightly, she really didn't want to answer his question anymore.

"We are all from Stone Village," Mu Zilei interjected, he pointed to several caravans parked not far behind Ouyang Jie, each of which was pulled by a giant rat the size of a horse and resembling a hamster, "May I ask Senior Brother Ouyang, are we going to take the rat cart here to the school?"

"It's called a pika, not a rat cart, junior brother. But it doesn't matter, countrymen are always easy to make mistakes," Ouyang Jie looked at the wooden leg hoop on Mu Zilei's body, a faint mockery flashed in his eyes, and at the same time he was quite unhappy with Mu Zilei's interjection, "In fact, your two little fat people in the countryside have already gone one step ahead of you, and left with two twin boys with long hair and cool, now you go to the reception point to register, and then get into the pika car, four people in one car, you will go up and sit first, and leave when all four people are gathered." ”

They registered, and Shadow Dance was the first to pull the cover of the car and quickly climbed into the car, and Mu Zilei and Ghost Tiger followed and sat on the other side.

As soon as they sat down, Ouyang Jie used his hand to remove the cover, and the gloomy and conceited face appeared at the door of the car.

"Shadow Dance Schoolgirl, if someone bullies you in the academy, you can find me, I believe I can help you. ”

He walked away. Shadow Dance sat quietly in her seat, feeling inexplicable.

After a while, the cover was pulled open by the prefect again, and the ghost tiger sitting by the door of the car looked startled.

"Shadow Dance Girl, I just missed out that I have an extraordinary relationship with Professor Ouyang Huo, the head instructor of the school, if there is anything I don't understand in my studies......"

Before he could finish speaking, Shadow Dance silently closed the mask and sat down.

"It seems that Senior Elder Ouyang has a good impression of you. Ghost Tiger quipped.

"Your words are so comforting. Shadow Dance rolled her eyes at him.

As soon as the words fell, the cover was pulled open again, this time it wasn't the annoying prefect.

A fat boy walked in with a bun in his mouth, and the smell of buns in the carriage made Shadow Dance frown. Mu Zilei recognized it at a glance that it was Duanmu'an who met in the cloth shop in Shashi Town.

"Oh, it's you, what ......a coincidence," Duanmu An said, he hesitated for a moment, and then picked up the bag of buns in his hand, "You eat...... Eat?"

"Thank you, we're not hungry. Mu Zilei said with a smile.

"That's good......" Duanmu An, as if he was afraid that others would rob him, retracted faster than anyone else, he breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm really worried that you will take it and eat it." ”

"......" Shadow Dance and Ghost Tiger looked at each other, only Mu Zilei couldn't cry or laugh.

"I'm Duanmu'an. He chewed the bun happily in his mouth, his voice muffled.

"My name is Ghost Tiger. Ghost Tiger smiled, he had a good impression of the fat man in front of him.

"Shadow Dance. Shadow Dance said in a light tone.

"Are you all seated?" shouted the driver outside the car, "Let's go!"

Ouyang Jie watched Mu Zilei and them leave, he gently stroked the meticulously combed hair on his head with his hand, and thought playfully, the girl named Shadow Dance is really an iceberg little beauty, but in this way can there be a challenge to the surname, and the prey that is not easy to get hold has the fun of hunting.

Along the way, in addition to Ying Wu's silence, several boys talked enthusiastically, and Mu Zilei found that Duanmu An not only had a wide range of knowledge, but also made them unbelievable that this boy who was timid and cowardly in appearance and clumsy in speech was a veritable spirit!

"Bacon School has arrived!" Suddenly, the voice of the coachman came from outside, and they got out of the car, and the three boys blurted out the exclamation of "whoosh".

The Bacon Academy in front of them was quite magnificent, with six tall halls scattered around the school, and a tall black tower reaching into the clouds in the middle.

A long banner hanging at the door of the school attracted Mu Zilei's attention, only to see a sentence written on the banner that made people confused and couldn't help laughing: "Children, you are finally here, we are hopeful of rushing to the tower!"

Soon, they were led by a handsome man in black with a hat and a hat to the direction of the dormitory, along the way with pleasant flowers and trees, and a dignified building dotted with very antique scenery.

"Senior brother, may I ask where the Chong Tower came from?" Mu Zilei asked politely, and in front of them, a statue with blurred facial features and a height of two meters broke into his eyeballs.

"What? you say again?" said the man in black without looking back.

"I mean, Shi ......" Mu Zilei was interrupted. Ghost Tiger poked him hard in the back and whispered to him: "That's a woman, it's a senior sister, not a senior brother!" Duanmu An on the side listened, as if he didn't believe it, and secretly glanced at the back of the man in black, and Shadow Dance let out a snorting and suffocating laugh on the side.

"Ah, teacher...... Senior sister, what is the 'Chong Tower' written on the banner at the entrance of the school?" Mu Zilei immediately changed his words.

"My name is Nangong Yu, you can call me Senior Sister Nangong," she coughed lightly, her fiery red pupils were impressive, "The so-called Chong Tower, that is, after three years, you have to enter the Black Tower in the center of the academy to be tested, and only after you successfully rush the tower can you really graduate from the Bacon Academy, so that tower is also called the Shi Tower." ”

"I heard that this tower hides a spiritual root?" Duanmu An asked abruptly.

"What is a spiritual root?" Mu Zilei and Ghost Tiger asked at the same time, and the shadow dance on the side was also full of interest.

"The so-called spiritual root refers to the root of the tree of life that created all the creatures in the Atlas continent in legend, and it is said that this spiritual root contains infinite spiritual power, which can make people become the peak of power," Nangong Yu said, "I don't know what reason has been rumored since the establishment of the Bacon Academy, this master tower hides the spiritual root, so it is also called the 'Zhengen Tower'." ”

The eyes of several children lit up when they heard this, but Nangong Yu's next words undoubtedly poured cold water on them.

"Don't fight the idea of this spiritual root, for more than three hundred years, our academy doesn't know how many seniors have tried to go in and explore, but they have found nothing, and there are countless outsiders who come to this so-called spiritual root, and there are even some peerless powerhouses, but they can't find the so-called spiritual root when they go through the entire tower, but it only increases unnecessary casualties. ”

"This spiritual root is a harmful thing after all......" Nangong Yu's eyes suddenly became dim, as if this topic evoked some sad things for her, she stopped speaking, and silently led Mu Zilei and them forward.

At this time, two students with banners walked up, and they deliberately lowered their heads to bypass Nangong Yu.

"Stop! What are you going to do?" Nangong Yu glanced at them.
