A Top Scholar in Everything-Chapter 756 - 742: Extracurricular Activities

Baiyu was momentarily speechless.

It seemed that since arriving in the Mountain City, he rarely encountered such situations, and unexpectedly, it happened again at the holy Purple Crystal School.

Indeed.

The girls at school all have a beautiful and pure yearning for love.

Being young is truly wonderful...

Baiyu couldn't help but sigh.

Ever since that girl came to deliver the love letter, the atmosphere on the bus changed.

Qu Yiming and Tian Haobin were winking at Baiyu, their faces full of envy.

And the other girls on the bus.

They occasionally glanced at Baiyu, their looks sharp as blades, as if they wanted to devour him.

The bus drove for a full two hours and finally arrived at the Lower City District of the Great City. Although it was the Lower City District, there were no residential buildings around here.

Instead, it was guarded by teams of protectors.

There was also heavy firepower and various spirit arrays.

After the bus drove in, a team of fully armed soldiers led everyone to a medium-sized teleportation light gate.

Teacher Gong got off the bus at this moment to let the students grab their luggage and greeted the man with the firearm, advising him to pay attention to safety, before leading the students into the light gate.

The driver did not enter.

Twelve people in total, instantly disappeared in the light gate.

When the brief dizziness from passing through the teleportation light gate subsided, Baiyu could open his eyes.

Contrary to expectations.

The ground was soft sand, surrounded by weeds, with stone-clad houses lined on either side, with people coming in and out.

Shouts from merchants constantly echoed.

All sorts of materials and goods that could only be found in the Spirit Realm were everywhere, along with various small Exotic Beasts confined in cages.

This was a camp.

A camp built by humans in the Spirit Realm.

Baiyu looked into the distance, towering city walls came into view, rows upon rows of low houses crowded together, bustling with people.

"This is Camp Eighteen, corresponding to the Eighteenth Teleportation Gate, with a permanent population of about a hundred thousand and a garrison of five thousand elite warriors from the Great City."

Teacher Gong explained to the students who were unclear about the situation; "The Great City is unlike other countries. The regions of the Spirit Realm connected by its teleportation light gates have already had harmful alien species cleared out.

The remaining alien species.

Dare not attack the camp at will.

Because the leaders of these alien species have already been cleared by the City Lord, the dead are dead, the fleeing have fled, and the remaining alien species are leaderless, generally splitting a large race into dozens of smaller tribes, killing each other and seizing territory, completely ignoring the human camp.

Moreover.

These alien species know that attacking the camp of the Great City will bring bloody reprisals from the City Lord."

Teacher Gong explained the reason for the small number of troops stationed at the camp.

With five thousand troops.

They might not be able to handle a large alien army, but it's enough to defend against most Exotic Beast incursions. Since there is no invasion by an alien army, five thousand is indeed more than sufficient.

"Teacher, isn't there a demon force in this Spirit Realm?"

Qu Yiming curiously asked.

If there were no demons, merely alien forces, many places' alien species weren't a match for humans.

Except for those extremely powerful exotic races.

Most of the alien species have no ability to fight back.

Not to mention, without demons, the alien species would fight among themselves and could never unite as they do now to resist humans.

"There was once a demon organization called the Skull-taking Association. It had over a hundred elite Great Demons, three Demon Kings, and one Demon General.

However.

They were all cleared by the City Lord, and not a single demon from the Skull-taking Association survived the City Lord's extermination.

Without demons, the alien species.

Are nothing more than scattered sand."

Teacher Gong explained very clearly.

Baiyu was deeply speechless.

Over at the East Prosperity Imperial, there are two demon organizations, one is the Flesh and Blood Research Association, and the other is Wumian Mansion. The entire power of the East Prosperity Imperial hasn't been able to completely eliminate them even after hundreds of years.

Moreover, recently.

Due to the setbacks of the human gods in the Dream Realm, the demons are even orchestrating a counterattack.

Yet, who would have thought the City Lord of the Great City could single-handedly wipe out a demon organization. It goes to show the difference in capability.

Among the upper echelons of humanity.

There's always been a dispute over whether it's better to pursue the route of arming everyone and sharing resources or the elite route, focusing on nurturing talent.

Both routes have a large number of supporters, and the debate continues to this day.

The military follows the resource-sharing, universal arming route, while places like the holy Purple Crystal School follow the elite route.

Obviously.

When a person reaches a certain level of strength, they become akin to an army, and numbers cannot compensate for the disparity that power brings.

The City Lord's combat capability is truly exaggerated.

...

Teacher Gong led the ten students to a hotel to rest for a while and then introduced various materials and management details of Camp Eighteen.

The highest official in the camp is a confidant of the City Lord.

She alone manages the five thousand soldiers and governs everything in the camp.

In Camp Eighteen, you can offend anyone, but never offend this person.

"Let's go, there will be other opportunities to come here in the future. First, let's head to the location for this field trip; that small ruin is a hundred kilometers away from the camp."

Teacher Gong led the crowd to the place where they leased transport tools in the camp, spent fifty Silver Snake Coins, and rented two large wagons pulled by Chasing Wind horses.

Chasing Wind horses are a type of Exotic Beast with an extremely gentle nature.

They are three to four times the size of a regular horse, not very aggressive, but their leg muscles are incredibly developed, giving them a very fast running speed.

They are often tamed by humans to be used as transportation.

The students didn't expect to ride in a vehicle even in the Spirit Realm and felt somewhat disappointed, but with the teacher and that armed, fierce man present, although they complained, they didn't voice it and got into the vehicle directly.

Very soon.

With the neighing of the Chasing Wind horses, the scenery on both sides flew by rapidly.

They sped out of the city gate and left the camp, galloping through the Spirit Realm dense with trees.

On roads cleared by the camp beforehand, their journey was smooth and unimpeded.

After an hour, they reached the site of the ruins.

Many temporary tents had been set up here, with the holy Purple Crystal School's mark printed on the tents, and the school's flag was also planted in front of the ruin's entrance, representing the school's first discovery.

"Old Gong, you finally made it. There are many things in this ruin that I can't discern and need you to analyze for me."

As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the ruins.

A pot-bellied middle-aged man approached with a smile, like Maitreya Buddha, grasping Teacher Gong's hand tightly.
