Illimitable Until Death

Chapter 294: IUD-CHAPTER 294 SHOULD BE HIS

“In that building over there is Seidoukan Academy University Division, and in that one is Seidoukan Academy High School Division. As for the Junior High School Division, it’s also in a building not far from here. If you’d like to visit, I’d be happy to show you around.”

“Oh? No Elementary School here?”

“Basically, in any academy, the youngest age for enrollment is in the Junior High School Division. Only Jie Long Seventh Institute has an Elementary School. For us, involving children in combat too early is not something we encourage.”

“It’s quite perplexing, really. If you want to train in martial arts, starting from a young age is beneficial for building a strong foundation. Jie Long Seventh Institute has always believed in this philosophy, which is why they have an Elementary School. For us, it’s actually surprising that you don’t.”

“That’s a matter of differing philosophies. At least for Seidoukan Academy, the Junior High School Division is the basic enrollment age.”

“Hehe, could it be because the minimum age to participate in Festa is 13? So the Integrated Enterprise Foundation behind you doesn’t want to waste resources on students who can’t compete yet?”

“Who knows?”

Walking side by side in one of Seidoukan Academy’s hallways, Fan Xinglou and Claudia conversed with each other while wearing smiles.

Their conversation had a somewhat probing tone, making it difficult for anyone to feel entirely at ease.

Fan Xinglou seemed genuinely interested in the students of Seidoukan Academy Academy.

Judging by her personality, she probably believed that this academy might provide valuable material, which was why she seemed so enthusiastic, right?

On the other hand, Claudia, while maintaining a polite tone toward Fan Xinglou, wore a perfect smile that seemed more like a mask, making it impossible for anyone to guess what was going on in her mind.

Fang Li, who was following these two Student Council Presidents, felt somewhat helpless.

Because the students around them kept casting curious glances and whispering.

“Aren’t those Jie Long Seventh Institute’s students?”

“Why would Jie Long Seventh Institute’s students come to Seidoukan Academy?”

“Could it be they’re here to gather intelligence?”

“That’s not surprising, after all, the ‘Phoenix Festa’ is about to start.”

“But the Student Council President is with them, so there shouldn’t be any problems, right?”

Similar conversations kept coming from nearby.

Therefore, a part of the students began to look at Fang Li with a hint of hostility and caution in their eyes.

It was only natural.

For students aiming for Festa as their goal, not to mention students from other academies, even students from the same academy were their competitors.

Festa was the most popular and beloved event in the world.

Achieving good results in Festa could elevate one’s status and treatment within the academy, offering unimaginable benefits to regular students.

If you won, you could even make a wish to the Integrated Enterprise Foundation.

Because of this, all kinds of Genestellars gathered here, each with their own goals, whether it was to stand out, gain fame and fortune, achieve their objectives, or simply enjoy the attention.

As a result, everyone around them was naturally considered a competitor, if not an enemy.

Given this, ever since the Genestellar had been introduced, examples of students resorting to unethical means in secret in order to achieve victory had become increasingly common.

In such a situation, students couldn’t help but be on their guard against those around them.

Therefore, Fang Li had attracted the attention of the people around him, who regarded him with vigilant looks one after another.

As for Fan Xinglou, she was obviously too young to participate in Festa, so the students found it strange that someone like her had come to Seidoukan Academy.

They were curious about her identity, but there was no hostility or caution.

So, Fang Li became the center of attention, all while Fan Xinglou seemed completely unconcerned about how he felt.

She continued to observe the Seidoukan Academy students around her with an eager look in her eyes as if she couldn’t wait to test them right here and see if anyone could challenge her and become her disciple.

Unfortunately, this idea was undoubtedly unrealistic.

With no other choice, Fang Li had to speak up.

“Master,” Fang Li sighed, “I think it’s about time you told me the real reason you brought me to Seidoukan Academy.”

Upon hearing this, Fan Xinglou didn’t react immediately.

Claudia, on the other hand, seemed slightly taken aback and smiled at Fan Xinglou, saying, “It seems you haven’t informed Fang-San of the purpose of this trip.”

“No need to rush. What’s meant to be will be. If there’s no fate, then this trip will be in vain. In that case, we might as well take some time to explore the academy,” Fan Xinglou said indifferently.

“But it’s almost time. Young lady, please guide us.”

“Certainly.” Claudia’s smile remained impeccable and dignified as she began to lead the way.

Fan Xinglou immediately followed, wearing a cheerful expression on her face as she sis so.

Fang Li, however, was even more puzzled.

He continued to follow behind Fan Xinglou and asked, “Master, can you stop keeping me in the dark?”

“You’re quite impatient,” Fan Xinglou glanced at Fang Li and then chuckled.

“Since you’ve already seen an Ogre Lux, you should know that every academy has Ogre Luxes provided by the Integrated Enterprise Foundation for students to use, right?”

Fang Li nodded.

Seeing this, Fan Xinglou continued, “However, Jie Long Seventh Institute is different. While we do have Ogre Luxes, the quantity is very limited. You should know the reason, right?”

Fang Li was well aware of this matter.

Indeed, compared to other academies, Jie Long Seventh Institute had a pitifully small number of Ogre Luxes.

It wasn’t because the Integrated Enterprise Foundation behind Jie Long Seventh Institute didn’t provide them; it was because there were very few students in Jie Long Seventh Institute who wished to use Ogre Luxes.

The reason was that many students in Jie Long Seventh Institute, who focused on training themselves, believed that the power of Ogre Luxes was too overwhelming and could easily lead to dependence, which hindered personal growth.

Therefore, Ogre Lux users in Jie Long Seventh Institute were extremely rare, and even if there were any, they would hardly ever use them unless it was absolutely necessary.

Fang Li knew one such person.

“Senior Brother Zhao is an Ogre Lux user, isn’t he?” Fang Li remarked.

“If I remember correctly, Senior Brother Zhao’s Ogre Lux is called ‘Tsuutensoku.ʼ”
