Chapter 8 First meeting the mainland
Although it is unique in his past life, it is a world of difference compared to the magnificent Zijin City in front of him, it is like a small village. The majestic momentum displayed by Zijin City shocked Darren and made him look forward to the upcoming college life.
The Purple Gold Continent is vast and its land is composed of two huge continents. The main continent, the Purple Gold Continent, has an area of 3 billion square kilometers and is majestic; the smaller Purple Cloud Continent also has a vast land of 1.5 billion square kilometers. The ocean surrounding these two continents is even more vast, with an area of dozens of times higher than the earth.
In this vast territory, there are many races, not the only one in the human race. In addition to human race, there are many unique races such as orcs, elves, mermaids, and barbarians. There is also a forest of monsters that occupy half of the land area. It is a mysterious and dangerous field, with countless powerful divine beasts living in it. Humans are just one of the more powerful races on this continent.
Seven empires are distributed on the Purple Gold Continent. The Purple Gold Empire is one of the most powerful empires established by the powerful humans. In addition, there are three human empires, the Dris Empire, the Light Empire and the Purple Gold Empire are in the Purple Gold Continent, while the Dark Empire is located in the Purple Cloud Continent, which is quite special. The other three empires are the Orc Empire, the Elf Empire, and the Barbarian Empire. They are powerful and any empire has the ability to fight against two human empires one by one. In order to compete for resources and territory, the war often meets each other, and the smoke of war has never really dissipated. Especially the Orc Empire and the Barbarian Empire, which frequently invade the surrounding human empires, leaving several human empires in a state of high alert for a long time. Compared with the Magnolia Continent in the original work, the situation in the Purple Gold Continent can be described as turbulent and chaotic.
However, it was in such a cruel environment that countless strong people were born. Among the seven empires, almost all the middle gods were in charge. They were like the sea-stabilizing needles, guarding their respective empires. The Purple Gold Empire even gave birth to the superior god. With the powerful deterrence of this superior god, other empires did not dare to act recklessly. In addition, it is not uncommon for the lower sacred domain power. Although they are low-key and do not show their strength easily, once they take action, they will be earth-shaking.
At the gate of the city, Darren stared at a man with a wolf-headed head. He walked calmly and slowly walked into the city gate. Darren's eyes were full of curiosity and asked Deen beside him softly: "Teacher, is that an orc?"
Deen patiently answered: "Well, that's the werewolf of the Orc Empire. Although there are constant disputes between the major empires, there is no limit on the exchanges between the various races." In this diverse world, it is not uncommon for different races to walk on the same land.
Darren then asked: "Can they also enter Purple Gold Academy?"
De'en heard this and laughed heartily: "Hahaha, the Purple Gold Magic Martial Arts Academy was founded by the first generation of Purple Gold Emperor. Its original intention was to cultivate outstanding human powerhouses to resist foreign races. Naturally, it would not accept foreign disciples. On the contrary, as long as it is a human and meets the conditions, it can be admitted to school for free and receive training guidance."
"The Great Purple Gold..." Darren murmured to himself, full of admiration, "The person who created this Purple Gold City is so broad-minded!"
Deen was shocked when he heard this. He didn't expect Darren, who was only six years old, to have such an opinion. He sighed: "That's right, the Purple Gold Emperor can be called the guide for human beings toward glory. If it weren't for his rise, perhaps human beings would still be struggling to survive under the enslavement of all races." Deen's thoughts seemed to float back to the war-torn and chaotic era tens of thousands of years ago.
Darren became more and more curious and asked, "Is the Purple Gold Emperor still on the mainland now?"
Deen paused slightly, thought for a moment and said, "I don't know, maybe I have already gone to the highest level. No one has seen the Purple Gold Emperor for thousands of years." After that, he looked at Darren with a curious face, smiled slightly, took Darren's hand, and walked towards the city gate.
Passing through the city gate, a street that is dozens of meters wide came into view. The streets were crowded and bustling. There were shops on both sides of the street, with various shouts coming one after another, which was very lively. Darren was instantly infected by this warm atmosphere. He had never seen such an ancient and prosperous city in his past or present life. Dean looked at Darren, but did not stop him, but accompanied him around and enjoyed this rare and pleasant time.
Zijin City is divided into two cities. East and West. The East City is directly governed by the royal family. The royal family members, princes and nobles all live here. Zijin Academy is also located in Dongcheng. Xicheng is a gathering place for major families, and it is also very lively. Walking on Zijin Avenue, Darren opened his eyes and saw not only orcs, but also graceful elves, burly barbarians, and some races he had never seen before. The patrol team wearing golden armor patrolled back and forth with neat and powerful steps, demonstrating the majesty and order of the city. On both sides of the street, there are luxury hotels, fashionable clothing stores, lively bars, grand weapon shops, and magnificent chamber of commerce buildings. There are also rare and precious trees that have been planted for many years, with lush branches and leaves, adding a bit of profound background to the city.
"Mercenary union, forging trade union..." Darren's eyes were attracted by several magnificent high-rise buildings. The gilded hot characters, even though they were far apart, were still shining brightly and particularly eye-catching. Several large chamber of commerce buildings were crowded and bustling, like the heart of the city, beating the pulse of business. De'en saw this and said, "These major unions have a profound foundation, so you will naturally understand them in the future. It is too early to say these."
This time they came to Zijin City, they did not go straight to Zijin Magic Martial Arts Academy, but found a restaurant to prepare to settle down. Just as Zijin Academy was admitting freshmen, strong people from all over the country sent their disciples to prepare for admission. The hotel in Zijin City was already crowded. As soon as they stepped into the restaurant lobby, they heard someone talking: "Have you heard it? This year, the admission standards of Zijin Academy have been raised again, and at least they need the best qualifications in both directions!"
Darren just glanced lightly, without saying a word, and followed De'en upstairs. The hotels they stayed in were among the best in Zijin City, and those who could stay here were either rich or noble. Darren had no intention of causing trouble.
"I didn't expect that these years have passed, Zijin Academy has raised its standards again!" Deen said while walking. Zijin Academy is large in scale, but the number of admissions is limited every year, and only recruits 5,000 talented human disciples. In the past, as long as one of the magic affinity and mental power reached the top level, it was not difficult to enroll. Now the standards have suddenly increased, which shows that outstanding human disciples have emerged one after another in recent years.
The hotel they stayed in had seven floors, and the rooms were on the sixth floor. The two of them had a simple meal in the second floor restaurant, and then returned to the room. Dean and Darren each opened a room, and Dean's room was next to Darren.
"Darren, get off early and will participate in the college selection tomorrow morning!" Deen reminded at the door. Deen was full of confidence in whether Darren can enter the school. After all, Darren's magical talent was tested by himself.
