The Mecha Driver Is a Cultivator

Chapter 130: Chapter 91: If the Starry River Were All Dark

Zhang Zhenhai’s voice fell, and he continued to add: “This kind of genius is not limited to martial arts, but involves various industries.”

The title of genius is a concept that is difficult to concretize.

But just listening to Zhang Zhenwu’s words, one can already foresee the importance of Gaia Planet.

In front.

After Zhang Zhenwu spoke a few sentences, he looked at Zhong Yi and [Candle Kite], and said with a smile: “Qin Jin has already arrived at the academy, my task is complete.”

“Now, I’ll hand him over to you.”

He bid farewell to Qin Jin, turned around and left first.

“Let’s go too.”

Zhong Yi looked at Qin Jin: “Let’s go to your dormitory first.”

“From now on, while studying at the academy, you’ll be living there for quite a while.”

Qin Jin nodded.

The three turned around.

Standing in place, [Candle Kite] was vivid, as if she were a real person, but when she began to move, ripples spread behind her, and her entire body floated forward in the low air.

She seemed more like a projection of some kind of avatar.

The current location was the internal docking area of the Martial Arts Series campus. As they moved forward, Zhong Yi began to introduce: “Qin Jin, the academy is still on vacation.”

“Most of the mentors and students aren’t here, but there are S-Level special recruits like you who have come to the academy ahead of time.”

“During this time, you should primarily get familiar with the academy.”

“There’s a Sky Screen Projection at your dormitory location. If you get bored, you can call Sister Zhu to activate it. You can then watch the live broadcast of the academy’s entrance exam. The outstanding young martial artists might become your future classmates and might also become your future rivals.”

As she said this, she seemed to remember something, pointing to [Candle Kite]: “As an S-Level, your permissions exceed those of ordinary students. Later, you’ll get a special personal terminal. For any help needed within the academy, you can contact Sister Zhu.”

Candle Kite’s projected face was quite mature, dressed in a work uniform, and smiled faintly upon hearing this.

“Sister Zhu?”

“Do I have to call her that way too?”

Qin Jin asked.

“That’s what I call her as a nickname.”

Zhong Yi quickly said: “It’s up to you, Sister Zhu, Sister Zhu, Aunt Zhu, any of them will do. If you don’t like anything flashy, just call her by name. If you have any special preferences, you can call her Mother Zhu. Anyway, Candle Kite doesn’t mind.”

With that, she mischievously raised her eyebrow at Qin Jin.

Qin Jin pondered: “Then I’ll just call her Candle Kite.”

The three walked forward side by side and quickly arrived at the exit of the docking area.

At the exit, a light curtain descended, blocking the way forward.

“Your identity information is already recorded in the academy, so just walk through it.”

“Qin Jin, there are some places within the academy that you can’t enter with your current permissions, but those places are few.”

Zhong Yi took the lead, leaping over the light curtain.

As she walked through, a prompt sounded.

[Martial Arts Series Level 5 Researcher — Zhong Yi, identity verification passed]

Seeing this, Qin Jin stepped in as well.

As he stepped through the light curtain, a prompt sounded in his ear.

[S-Class Student — Qin Jin, identity verification passed]

In the next moment.

His body passed through the light curtain, and the view in front of him suddenly opened up.

Wuyuan Academy, the true appearance of the Martial Arts Series campus unfolded before his eyes.

In sight, buildings stood, but they didn’t look like the anticipated high-tech structures; rather, their appearance seemed somewhat primitive, similar to the architectural style of the Starfire Federation before venturing into the Star Sea.

However, the materials used were vastly different compared to those times.

Above the sky, suspended over the campus was an unexpectedly floating Sky Island!

The purpose of the Sky Island was unknown, hanging in the air without a single sound.

Qin Jin’s gaze fixed upon one spot.

There stood a giant human statue.

The statue was lifelike, its face radiant, appearing full of vigor.

As Qin Jin looked at the statue, he vaguely seemed to see someone standing in the Star Sea, fighting enemies alone.

The image flashed and disappeared.

Qin Jin looked at the high platform beneath the statue.

There, with flame-colored strange paint, a line of text was written.

[When the galaxy turns dark, martial arts are the only unquenchable starfire]

——[Chen Shu]

“That’s Mr. Chen Shu’s statue.”

Beside him, Zhong Yi’s voice lowered somewhat: “Mr. Chen was the second supreme strongman in Federation history to advance to the Martial God Realm.”

“He was also one of the founders of our Wuyuan Academy.”

“He…”

Zhong Yi opened her mouth but could not speak.

Qin Jin fell silent.

The development of extraordinary technology requires constant advancement. The civilization treasure-level mecha cast by today’s Federation technology allows Eighth Realm Martial Gods to exert Ninth Realm combat power!

So then…

In the past…

What were the predecessors of the Martial God who were not born in this era like?

Although the current Federation faces powerful enemies all around, it is strong enough itself, yet in the past developmental years, it could indeed be described as tumultuous.

Martial arts cultivation continuously evolves, extending life span, and when Federation Martial Gods fall, it’s likely not because their time has come, but because they wrote the final Chapter on the battlefield.

The thought flashed through.

Qin Jin withdrew his gaze from the statue.

Ahead.

An automatic pilot vehicle within the campus stopped in front of the three.

This was a smaller type of transport similar to a Star Shuttle but much smaller.

“Let’s go.”

“We’ll head to the dormitory area.”

Zhong Yi sat down: “After sending you there, I need to return to the headquarters campus.”

“Then, if you have anything you don’t understand, just ask Sister Zhu.”

As she said this, she pointed upwards: “The headquarters campus is in the sky. I’m not sure if you saw it on your way here; the artificial celestial body orbiting Zhi Xia Star is our academy headquarters.”
