3-Step Tower Exchange Student
Chapter 19 Three-Step Tower Exchange Student
The assessment speech ended shortly afterward.
Gojo Satoru walked up to the group to collect their money, but when it was Zhao Manyan's turn, he grabbed Gojo Satoru's shoulder and said with a resentful look, "Satoru, that's not fair of you, you're even taking money from your brothers!"
"Hehe, is Young Master Zhao someone who's short of money?" Gojo Satoru didn't even bother to reply.
This is a golden opportunity to fleece the wealthy; how could we let Zhao Manyan slip away!
"Damn, that's ten million! That's enough to pick up so many girls." Zhao Manyan reluctantly pulled out a bank card.
Gojo Satoru snatched it without hesitation and then played with it along with the other two cards.
He then left the school.
Tonight, the entire city of Shanghai is destined to be anything but peaceful.
Dark clouds still hung thickly over this bustling metropolis, so dense that not a single ray of starlight could penetrate them.
All the hidden cancers will be uprooted tonight, no matter the cost!
……
The following day, Gojo Satoru converted all his funds into resources and applied to enter the Three-Step Tower for training.
The Three-Step Tower is located on the main campus of Mingzhu Academy and is one of the most important resources that the elites on the main campus are constantly vying for!
The Three-Step Tower has a long history; it is a very special magical building that can gather the scattered and drifting elemental energy between heaven and earth into one place.
Elements are everywhere. The reason why spirit seeds are born is because they are gradually evolved over time in a place where elements and magical energy are particularly concentrated.
The structure and function of the Three-Step Pagoda are precisely to gather energy from an area of several thousand square kilometers.
Among the main campus buildings, the Three-Step Tower stands out. It presents a perfectly symmetrical three-dimensional triangle shape, and its exterior appears to be made of silver metal, rising straight up.
Under Dean Xiao's guidance, Gojo Satoru entered the Three-Step Tower without any incident.
Upon entering this place, Gojou Gosho clearly felt his demonic energy draining away, and then he remembered what Mo Fan had said before: three layers, two hundred times!
"The superposition of gravity generated by space"
In an instant, Gojo Satoru's six eyes analyzed the specific effects of the staircase, and the next moment he began to climb, reaching the third floor in one breath.
The difficulty of this climb is only for mid-level mages; it's not enough for a high-level mage like Gojo Satoru, who couldn't even draw a third of the Star River's magical energy.
"Eighty times the elemental concentration, not bad!"
As he began his formal training, Gojo Satoru took out healing resources and placed them in front of him, absorbing them along with the bonus from the Three-Step Tower.
Before long, seven days had passed in the blink of an eye.
This immense natural magic allowed Gojo Satoru to progress extremely rapidly. His healing abilities were ready to break through to a higher level at any time, and his spatial abilities, with the support of resources, broke through to the second level of the higher level, but there was no further progress.
The Chaos System is barely at the third level of the intermediate stage.
After a slight improvement, the cumulative effect of the three-step tower multiplier dropped too quickly, from eighty times concentration to twenty times.
.........
Principal's Office.
"Huh? An exchange student?"
Wearing round sunglasses, Gojo Satoru sat lazily on the sofa, yawning, and then refused without hesitation, "Who wants to participate in something so boring!"
Dean Xiao looked at Gojo Satoru with a smile and said somewhat helplessly, "Satoru, this is, after all, an exchange between academies. You only need to show a little bit of your skills."
"Are the opponents very strong? Mo Fan and the others are enough." Gojo Satoru asked, puzzled.
He's no longer interested in beating weaker opponents.
"Wu, the university we're exchanging ideas with is the Imperial Academy in the capital. I heard they have a genius with innate talent, so they wanted you to go and put the Imperial Academy in its place!" Teacher Zhou Zhenghua said in a serious tone.
"I believe Mo Fan can do it!" Gojo Satoru still didn't want to go.
Why bother with being an exchange student when you won't earn any money? You might as well take on some freelance work to fill your empty wallet.
"Wu, how about this? I'll sponsor a Life Crystal..." Dean Xiao was really going all out for this inter-university exchange.
Upon hearing this, Gojo Satoru immediately turned around with a beaming smile: "No problem then, I guarantee I'll bring honor to the school!"
-
The students selected to go to the capital as exchange students this time are: Mo Fan from the Summoning system, Mu Nujiao from the Plant system, and Song Xia from the Fire system.
Zhao Manyan (Light), Luo Song (Ice), Shen Mingxiao (Wind), Bai Tingting (Healing), and Peng Liang (Shadow).
And the ultimate trump card, Gojo Satoru!
These candidates, excluding Gojo Satoru, are all mid-level mages, and are among the best of this year to enter the main campus.
After a routine visit to several sacred sites of Chinese magical civilization, we entered the Imperial Capital Academy.
"Wow! Is this the Imperial University? It's much more impressive than ours!"
Wu Tiao Wu stared at the high-end, classy teaching building and the ancient-looking trees around it, his eyes sparkling.
"A country bumpkin is a country bumpkin, acting like he's never seen the world." Luo Song muttered to Shen Mingxiao behind him.
"Yeah, this pretty boy can only surpass us so far. Sooner or later, he'll just be a stepping stone for our aristocratic scions," the latter replied.
Gojo Satoru easily overheard these two clueless idiots talking about him.
"You guys are so talkative, you really deserve a beating!"
Boom!
Luo Song and Shen Mingxiao covered their heads and squatted on the ground, their large red bags steaming.
"Teach me a lesson, or things won't be so simple!" Gojo Satoru said with a forced smile.
"Damn it! Shen Mingxiao, let's fight him to the death!"
"Now is not the time."
This little incident ended quickly.
After touring the universities in the capital, the teacher in charge of reception arranged for everyone to stay in the student apartments.
At this level, everyone is an intermediate-level mage, or to put it bluntly, a graduate student, so their living conditions must be quite good.
The apartment has a lobby, and each person has a private room.
"Mr. Gu Han, Ms. Qiu Yuhua, please let the students rest here. The exchange students from the other six schools will arrive tomorrow afternoon. Then we can have a magic competition between the various schools," said Ms. Lu, who was in charge of receiving the students.
"So eager?" Gu Han was taken aback.
"How could that be? The timing is perfect. This is the highlight of every year."
"Besides the competition, this year we also need to gain experience, so it's better to hold it sooner," said Teacher Lu with a smile.
"In that case... alright then."
"I will be here tomorrow to pick up the students from Mingzhu Academy. You should all get some rest."
Our Imperial Academy has long heard of Gojo Satoru's exploits, so please go easy on him!
Teacher Lu continued with a smile, but the smile had a hint of feigned humility.
Gu Han's face turned ashen, but he didn't lash out. After all, in the face of facts, all words seemed pale and powerless.
After Mr. Lu left, Gojo Satoru stepped forward and said, "I'll go to the first match tomorrow by myself. Let me see how strong the genius from the capital is."
Teacher Gu Han was surprised to hear this. Although he had heard at school that Gojo Satoru had single-handedly fought hundreds of people, he had never seen it with his own eyes, but now he heard it clearly.
"Will this work?" he asked hesitantly.
"Don't worry, I'll only play one game, it won't affect the relationship between the schools," Gojo Satoru shrugged.
Mo Fan was happy to have some free time, which was perfect for him to relax.
The others didn't want to embarrass themselves by being the first to face the students from the Imperial Academy, and seeing that a powerful figure had taken the initiative, they certainly didn't say anything.
If someone else said they wanted to fight alone, they would definitely mutter a few words about arrogance and conceit.
But it was Gojo Satoru who said this, and everyone was speechless.
The capital is doomed to defeat!
