Chapter 270 - 227: Learning the Ancient Divine Language
From watching the match, Wang Yi confirmed that Hu Miaosuan was a true Dog Head Military Advisor!
He only made terrible moves, but he had somehow won!
That could only be chalked up to good luck.
Wang Yi even felt bad for his opponent.
Still, a win was a win. Getting a Gold blind box was a good thing!
Wang Yi was still happy. He gripped the Gold blind box, used his No-Damage Attack to kick Hu Miaosuan awake, and said, "Alright, everyone, let’s go! Next stop!"
Now that they had their prize, it was time to move on.
[Exit 1: Leads to the Four-Star Station: Flowing Frost Canyon in the Starry World. There, you might encounter the world-roaming King of Bronze and Fire.]
[Exit 2: Leads to the Three-Star Station: The Sword Rain Dynasty, hidden within the Starry World. There, you might obtain the Revolving Wheel Sword and the Holy Buddha Relic.]
[Exit 3: Leads to the Four-Star Station: The Civilization Academy in the Wuyou World. There, you can learn the Ancient Divine Language. The student with the best score on the final exam will receive a mysterious reward. Current enrollment: 56/66. Classes will begin soon.]
After a moment’s thought, Wang Yi decided to head for the third exit.
Due to the prying eyes of the Starry Sky God, Wang Yi wanted to avoid the Starry World whenever he saw it mentioned.
After stepping into the Teleportation Light Ball, Wang Yi felt as if he had arrived in the Cloud Sea World. White clouds and mist spread out beneath his feet, stretching into the infinite distance. A massive structure floated above the mist—not the Celestial Palace Divine Hall, but a peculiar, spire-topped castle.
Above the spire-topped castle were two large words: "Civilization Academy"!
"Ding! You have arrived at the ninth station on your journey!"
"Ding! Welcome to the Civilization Academy in the Wuyou World. This academy only opens during special events. This session is recruiting from the Newbie Worlds. The archaeology department is currently enrolling 66 students for a free course on the Ancient Divine Language. The term lasts three days. Please follow the cloud-paved road and register as soon as possible. Classes will begin as soon as enrollment is full."
"Ding! Note: In the current world, travelers’ movements are restricted. You may only enter the classrooms and the temporary rest area. The entrance to the next station will open after the term ends and the closing ceremony is complete."
Wang Yi felt this world was absurd. ’There’s actually an academy here? And I have to attend classes? To learn a foreign language, of all things!’
’Well, since I’m here, I might as well enroll and go to class. I’ll aim for first place!’
Wang Yi muttered to himself as he led the group forward. Soon, they were met by a robot guide.
The robot looked almost identical to a Wadu. It created student records for Wang Yi’s group of seven, assigned them student numbers, and issued them access passes.
Then, it led them to the classroom and the temporary rest area, assigned them each a private dorm room, and explained many of the school’s rules, such as no fighting on pain of expulsion.
Wang Yi found the whole thing rather surreal.
’I actually fucking enrolled in a school!’
His student number was 57. Li Longyu, Wang Bushi, Hai Zhongxian, Hu Miaosuan, and Beruna were numbers 58, 59, 60, 61, and 62, respectively. Pan Taiji was number 63!
Before they could even rest in their dorms, enrollment was filled, and an announcement immediately called everyone to class.
Since Wang Yi had decided to attend the class, he was definitely aiming for the top score and the mysterious reward.
However, he wasn’t arrogant enough to think he was the best student. To get first place, he would need to use other methods.
Inside the spacious classroom, Wang Yi pulled Li Longyu to a window seat in the back row. Hai Zhongxian, Wang Bushi, Beruna, and Hu Miaosuan naturally followed and sat with them. The fingernail-sized Atomic Kui Dragon, Pan Taiji, sat on the desk in front of Wang Yi.
"The classroom is so big, and there are so many seats. Why are we sitting all the way in the back?"
Li Longyu asked, puzzled.
The classroom before them could probably seat three or four hundred people, but there were only 66 students, and most of them were crammed together at the front.
Among those students were many Players Wang Yi didn’t recognize. They all seemed to know each other, joking around and roughhousing.
Wang Yi didn’t answer her directly. Instead, he turned to Hu Miaosuan and said, "Old Hu, Grand Military Advisor Hu, you go sit up front with the other students!"
"Huh?"
Hu Miaosuan’s eyes darted around, confused.
Wang Yi didn’t waste any words; a few quick punches and kicks convinced him. Old Hu then cheerfully ran to the front and plopped down in the middle of the other students.
Only then did Wang Yi say to Li Longyu, "Old Hu has a Superpower. It subtly influences everyone around him, making them lose focus. We’ll stay far away so we aren’t affected. Whether or not we can get first place in the class depends entirely on him."
"Uh..." Li Longyu was taken aback. "A power like that exists?"
"Just you wait and see," Wang Yi said with a sly chuckle. "He’ll give the other students a debuff while we study hard over here. There’s no way we won’t get first place."
Wang Yi was quite pleased with himself. He was also very curious about the upcoming Ancient Divine Language course.
Soon, class began!
The teacher who came to give the lecture was also a Wadu-like robot.
"You are all very lucky to have caught this free class offered by the Civilization Academy. I am your teacher, Mr. Wa, a professor in the archaeology department. For the next three days, I will be teaching you the Ancient Divine Language! But enough idle talk, let me start with a brief introduction..."
The little robot’s voice was loud and clear, its speech powerful and resonant. Behind the lectern, a large screen displayed images related to its lecture.
It continued, "First, let me introduce you to the Ancient Divine Race. Generally, we refer to the ancient Players from 129,600,000 years ago as the Ancient Divine Race. In the current era, the System Power has made Chinese prevalent across all civilizations, the entire universe, and every race, establishing it as the cosmic common tongue. However, countless minor languages still exist. Some of these are actually quite complete, scientific, and ancient—for example, the Ancient Divine Language!"
