Folk Card Maker: Starting from Painted Skin
#141 - Arriving in the Imperial Capital
The people of the entire nation, including Zhang Jing Tian, were unaware of the events in District Five.
At their school, everyone was discussing the upcoming National College League, while only members of the Ministry of War were continuously heading towards District Five.
…
"You should go draw lots when the time comes!" Zhang Jing Tian said earnestly, looking at Bai Xiaoyue in front of him.
Bai Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment, and asked back, "Why me?"
She actually didn't like doing this kind of thing. If the result of the draw wasn't satisfactory, wouldn't she be the scapegoat?
Zhou Hanyu smiled and said:
"Because you have good luck!"
"Where did you see that from?" Bai Xiaoyue couldn't help but ask.
Zhang Jing Tian straightened his chest and spoke nonsense with a serious face:
"Of course, it's because your reincarnation skills are good! Look, you won at the starting line from birth. Can you still say you don't have good luck?"
At this point, Bai Xiaoyue was completely speechless, because she realized that she had no way to refute Zhang Jing Tian.
Moreover, she could see that the others clearly agreed with Zhang Jing Tian's words; they were all secretly laughing!
This year's National College League was being held in the Imperial Capital, but not at the Imperial Capital Card Academy, but at another school.
The strength of this school was actually not bad. Although it was inferior to the Imperial Capital and Magic Capital in terms of foundation, it was still one of the top ten universities in the country.
They also had to go to the Imperial Capital for the draw, so this was Zhang Jing Tian's first time going to District One, to the Imperial Capital. He seemed particularly excited.
On the school's side, Teacher Li and the Vice Dean were going as their supervising teachers.
Mainly responsible for protecting them.
"Is District One very dangerous?" Zhang Jing Tian looked at Teacher Li and asked in a low voice.
"District One itself is not dangerous, but because there are more Secret Realms, if you accidentally get sucked into one, we can at least rescue you as soon as possible."
"How come I never encountered a Secret Realm in Magic Capital?" Zhang Jing Tian asked.
"Generally, places where humans are active deliberately avoid Secret Realms. Building a city around a Secret Realm, like your Lanruo City, is actually very rare in the whole country."
"Of course, the abundant mental energy near the Secret Realm is a double-edged sword in itself."
Zhang Jing Tian nodded, took his cards, and got into the special car prepared by the school.
Saying it was a special car, it was actually just a Vehicle Card, but it had been specially approved.
Otherwise, they might have been destroyed as soon as they reached the border area between District One and District Two.
After entering the territory of District One, Zhang Jing Tian looked down at District One from above. As expected, the population was denser and more prosperous than District Two.
After all, Magic Capital was still more superior, and other cities were lagging behind.
But in District One, all the cities were quite developed, except that the Imperial Capital was particularly developed.
"But compared to the Imperial Capital," Bai Xiaoyue, who grew up in the Imperial Capital, said softly, "I still prefer Magic Capital."
If you live there, everyone's status and class are fixed. Even a genius like you, as soon as you show potential, those big families in the Imperial Capital will start to recruit you.
If you don't accept, you are likely to be suppressed. So geniuses don't circulate, and it's difficult for ordinary people to really cross classes."
After listening to this, Zhang Jing Tian's expression also changed.
If that was the case, then he, like Bai Xiaoyue, would definitely prefer Magic Capital.
However, if you were a tourist, seeing the magnificent buildings, the bustling crowds, and the lively scenes in the Imperial Capital, you couldn't help but sigh, this is indeed the world's largest city today.
On the streets, you can see people from other countries all over the world, all gathered in the Imperial Capital.
Everywhere you can see some novel gadgets made by card makers, which have entered thousands of households.
Ordinary people can also enjoy this convenience.
If you forget what Bai Xiaoyue just said, the Imperial Capital can be called a prosperous royal capital.
No wonder almost all card makers, when they break through to the top, eventually settle here.
"It's so lively!" Wei Yingyue was also visiting the Imperial Capital for the first time, and she was already dazzled.
Walking on the streets of the Imperial Capital, Wei Yingyue even had a feeling that she was a country bumpkin.
Bai Xiaoyue wasn't interested at all; she was tired of seeing the scenes on the street.
"That's our advertisement!"
At this time, Ding Xiaoyu suddenly grabbed Zhang Jing Tian's arm and shouted loudly.
Following his voice, Zhou Hanyu looked in the direction he was pointing, and sure enough, he saw a huge advertising poster.
National College League! Freshman Competition!
Compared to the events of other grades, their freshman competition sounded more professional.
In addition, everywhere on the streets and alleys were advertisements and endorsements for those professional players.
No wonder everyone said that professional players are top-tier! In this world, they are leading superstars by a wide margin.
However, there were also many card makers here. Walking on the road, Zhang Jing Tian felt that everyone he passed by was a card maker.
It was completely different from when he was in Lanruo City, where he would subconsciously think he was someone special when he walked on the street.
Here, he was so inconspicuous.
Finally, they took a quick tour of the most prosperous street in the Imperial Capital, and then stopped in front of a towering building.
"This is the building of the Dragon Country Professional League. Our College League is also in cooperation with them. It should be said that all the national events are monopolized by them."
"Tsk tsk tsk, then they should be very rich, right?" Zhang Jing Tian immediately asked.
Teacher Li smiled: "You can say that. But in the Imperial Capital, just having money is useless."
"By the way, everyone, let's go to the first floor to register first, and then go to the hotel. We'll prepare for the draw tomorrow, and the competition will be the day after tomorrow."
Listening to the arrangements, Zhang Jing Tian felt that time was passing so quickly.
In the blink of an eye, he had been in school for more than a month, and his progress had been rapid. Now he was already Gold Two-Star, surpassing Bai Xiaoyue, and on the same starting line as Yang Zheng.
The three of them had been chasing each other, but it had also indirectly stimulated them to continue to improve.
Zhang Jing Tian's expectation for this College League was not whether he could win the championship, but he hoped that in this environment full of experts, he could squeeze his potential and finally break through to Platinum in one fell swoop.
He knew that no one would believe it if he said this, but Zhang Jing Tian had a premonition in his heart.
He would gain a lot in this College League.
When the time comes, he could prepare to make his fourth card, which would also be his first real Orange Card.
