Folk Card Maker: Starting from Painted Skin
#122 - Kind aunt
"Then let's have a speed competition, shall we? See that building in front? Let's race and see who can reach it first."
Zhang Jingtian smiled. He hadn't expected it to be a speed competition.
But he thought it was quite interesting, and he could try out the full speed of the Ghost Motorcycle.
"Sure!"
"Oh, right," Qi Weilong said, patting his gold ingot and smiling, "Don't think that just because my mental strength level is higher than yours, my vehicle card is a Purple card. We're on the same starting line, so it's not like I'm bullying you."
After saying that, Qi Weilong and Zhang Jingtian set off at the same time.
Zhang Jingtian knew that vehicle card racing was a form of entertainment.
To unleash the speed of a vehicle card, you need to continuously inject mental strength, then focus your attention and clearly see the route.
At first, he was able to stay ahead of Qi Weilong.
But soon, the gold ingot under Qi Weilong's butt seemed to be cheating, flying past him like a jet rocket.
"Too fast," Zhang Jingtian thought helplessly as he watched him go.
"Hey, it's okay to lose to me," Qi Weilong said, looking at the dispirited Zhang Jingtian, comforting him:
"I'm your senior after all, and my mental strength is Platinum. Isn't it normal for you to lose to me? Why do you make it sound like I'm a dark horse?
But you're much stronger than I expected. Your mental strength is very stable, clearly honed in actual combat."
Qi Weilong then acted as a guide, giving Zhang Jingtian a brief introduction to the Magic City and the buildings they passed.
"See that enclosed area over there that's completely shrouded?"
Zhang Jingtian was stunned because he couldn't see anything.
Qi Weilong guided him, "Now, concentrate your mental strength and feel it, let your mental strength become your third eye."
Listening to Qi Weilong's words, Zhang Jingtian gradually found his feeling.
As he reopened his eyes, he indeed saw a blocked-off area.
"That place is a secret realm, but it hasn't been fully explored yet. It's just been concealed by a card creator to prevent ordinary people from panicking.
There are many such secret realms in the Magic City. Sometimes when you're walking on the street and suddenly feel something is wrong with your body, it's likely that there's a secret realm nearby, and it's attracting you to it."
Zhang Jingtian nodded vigorously, "Then, Senior, is my current ability enough to go to a secret realm?"
"You can, but the minimum requirement… well, Gold card creators are generally cannon fodder in secret realms. So unless the school organizes it, don't go exploring secret realms alone."
Zhang Jingtian nodded. Finally, under Qi Weilong's guidance, they arrived at the Magic City Card Academy.
Although Zhang Jingtian already knew before coming that the Magic City Card Academy, as one of the top card academies in Dragon Country, would definitely be very impressive.
But it was only when he actually arrived at the entrance of the Magic City Card Academy that he could feel the full aura of this academy.
It was even more magnificent than he had imagined. The gate alone was as long as a street.
And the entire academy had an overall area comparable to a district in Lanruo City.
It could be said that this card academy was equivalent to a small city.
In addition to teaching buildings and student dormitories, there were also some very special areas.
However, Zhang Jingtian's current permissions were not enough to understand them.
Qi Weilong had completed his mission after bringing him to the gate.
Saying goodbye to this kind senior, Zhang Jingtian waved to Qi Weilong:
"See you at the start of the semester, Senior!"
Unexpectedly, Qi Weilong turned his head and said nonchalantly, "We might not even see each other when the semester starts.
After all, I should still be in a secret realm by then."
After saying that, Qi Weilong's figure disappeared.
He had originally planned to purchase a batch of medicines and then go to the secret realm, but meeting Zhang Jingtian had delayed him for a while.
… …
Zhang Jingtian walked to the school gate and was indeed stopped by the security guard.
Fortunately, Zhang Jingtian had called the school in advance, so after he gave his name, the security guard let him in.
Immediately afterward, Zhang Jingtian saw a very fashionable aunt walking towards him.
When she saw Zhang Jingtian, she waved excitedly:
The latest novels are first published at 69shu.com!
"You're the student who came early, right!"
Zhang Jingtian nodded with a smile: "Sorry to trouble you."
The other party immediately shook her head: "It's okay, it's okay, we like proactive students like you. Coming so early, do you have any plans? Or are you just staying at school first?"
"I plan to look around for some work, or take on some commissions."
"Well, that's not bad either. It's like exercising yourself. These days, there aren't many students as self-aware as you."
The aunt was a little emotional, and from her tone, it could be heard that her impression of Zhang Jingtian was actually quite good.
"The main thing is that I'm the only one at home now, and our school's tuition is not low, and the expenses in the Magic City are also not small, so I can only save money myself."
Zhang Jingtian had some intention of playing the sympathy card, but everything he said was the truth.
After hearing this, the aunt immediately felt a little sorry, sighed, and said with emotion:
"Hey, young man, it's not easy for you either. I can't help you with the tuition, but accommodation will definitely not be a problem before the start of the semester."
"And I'll arrange good accommodation for you."
Zhang Jingtian originally thought that he would be sent to the student dormitory in advance, but he was told that the dormitory had not yet been allocated.
And where he was going was a hotel in the school, which was also operated by the Card Academy.
This hotel didn't look like an ordinary luxurious hotel. When Zhang Jingtian walked in, he was still a little unaccustomed to it.
When the aunt opened a suite for him, he was even more surprised.
"Is it really free to stay here?" Zhang Jingtian began to suspect if it was some kind of trick.
At this time, the aunt shook her head: "How is that possible, I'm not so nice to everyone. It's just that your appearance reminds me of your principal when he was young. He also started from scratch and was also a work-study student like you."
The principal of the Magic City Card Academy, a legendary card creator, is also recognized as one of the top ten in Dragon Country.
He is even less than fifty years old, and can be said to be the youngest of these top card creators.
Hearing the aunt describe him like that, Zhang Jingtian was still very happy, with a kind of unspeakable pride.
Because it meant that he was recognized by the other party.
