Chapter 350 Draw the Duel Hamburger
Chapter 350 Draw the Duel Hamburger
Five hours earlier, Di Xing stood in the elevator ascending to the third floor, slowly rising along with the morning smoke from the fourth floor.
He looked down at the increasingly smaller fourth-floor building below, and remembered what Fudoyuki... no, it should be 003 had said: "The difficulty isn't defeating them, but not becoming them."
Di Xing secretly made up his mind that he would never betray his ideals. He would only do three things on his trip to the third level: fairness, fairness, and damn fairness!
Accompanying Di Xing at this moment were Ai Xiao, Li Fei Hua Yue, and Xiao You, who was grinning foolishly and pressing her face against the glass. Xiao You was a distinguished guest from Bai Niao Xia, so she could freely move around on the third and fourth floors.
As the elevator ascended higher and higher, Di Xing truly felt himself getting further and further away from everyone who remained on the third floor.
What were the thoughts of those who ascended to the third floor via the elevator?
I bet most people, like Lunya, want to bring a better life to everyone.
Most people are probably relieved to have finally escaped that garbage dump of a fourth floor. Some, however, will miss their friends while yearning for a better life, ultimately shedding silent tears and deciding never to return.
Di Xing once again sensed the malice of the person who installed this panoramic elevator; he wanted to make those who ascended to stardom feel that they were getting further and further away from the fourth level, thus making them feel, both mentally and physically, like someone on the third level.
It's a pity that Di Xing not only has to remember that he comes from the fourth level, but he also has to make large numbers of people from the third level come down to the fourth level. Hehehe.
Following Di Xing's thoughts, they finally arrived at the third floor.
Di Xing and his group stepped out of the elevator. The guards politely checked their identification and then pressed the door open button for them.
As the door between the pillars slowly opened, a ray of morning sunlight streamed in, and a gleaming city gradually appeared before everyone's eyes.
It was a city similar to a second-tier city in the real world, with rows of multi-story residential buildings, many cars speeding along the wide roads, and various flowers and plants planted around the roads, where many small birds flew.
This place is indeed much better than the fourth floor; no wonder everyone on the fourth floor wants to climb up. But Di Xing isn't in the mood to appreciate the scenery right now. He grabbed Xiao You, who was happily preparing to chat with the birds, and hailed a taxi with Ai Xiao, heading towards their destination—the Victory Spire of the Duel Academy.
The Victory Spire is located in the central area (the column area), so they arrived quickly.
Standing before the magnificent gates of the Duel Academy, Di Xing couldn't help but be amazed by the sheer size of the school.
Although it's called the Victory Spire, besides the spire that stands in the very center of the school, the school also boasts an astonishingly large area, making the tower appear quite small when viewed from the entrance.
It was the first day of school, and a large number of students were crowding at the school gate.
"Hurry up and squeeze in! If I'm late, my buddy will kill me!"
"What's the rush, you outer ring? If we central ring folks don't make it, we'll be hooked by Old Jiang and left out to dry like salted fish!"
"Stop talking nonsense, if you have the strength, squeeze in two more inches, damn it, who's secretly touching my butt?"
"Uh, the students at this school have a rather peculiar style," Di Xing said, somewhat speechless.
A weathered voice came from the young man.
Di Xing then noticed an old man, as if by a statue, sitting cross-legged on the stone steps of the school gate next to him, holding a fishing rod without a hook, seemingly fishing for air.
The old man wore a straw hat that covered his face, but the dark skin on his hands proved that he had once been a passionate man who fought against the wind and waves.
"You're freshmen, right? Freshmen, please go to the right." The old man didn't move an inch even when he spoke, so Di Xing had just mistaken him for a statue of Jiang Taigong fishing. He was wondering if there was a Jiang Taigong in this world.
"Ah, thank you," Di Xing and the others said, and hurried to the freshman entrance examination hall on the right.
The old man remained in the same position. "Looks like you've caught a pretty good fish this time. Will you stir up this peaceful pond and turn it upside down? I'm really looking forward to it!"
Di Xing and his group jogged to the freshman entrance examination hall, where they saw a large number of strangely shaped students gathered there, noisily greeting each other... family?
"Quiet!" A woman with fiery red hair, dressed in a white teacher's robe, sternly reprimanded the students.
"You will need to take an entrance test, and based on the results, you will be assigned to the outer ring, middle ring, or inner ring!"
Holy crap, the inner ring? Di Xing immediately pictured a huge green guy wielding a chainsaw sword and a bolt-action pistol. "First, the Legion has no secrets."
"Hahaha, there really is a test!" A man with a mohawk shouted happily. "This is great! I'm invincible in our street, let me show you my invincible double deck!"
Uh, dual-level? Invincible? Are you sure?
The red-haired woman ignored him. "First test!" she said, pointing a slender finger. A massive, muscular man pushed an enormous food cart towards them.
The giant boldly lifted the white cloth, revealing a mountain of hamburgers piled on the table.
"It's about drawing duel bread!"
Holy crap, is that a classic GX scene? But this looks like a hamburger!
"What? What's the point of comparing this?" the mohawk-haired man shouted in dissatisfaction.
"A duelist must first have unparalleled luck! Trust your luck more than your deck!"
Holy crap, this woman is so materialistic!
"Then why is it a hamburger?" a man with a sushi-like hairstyle protested. "I'm a sushi fan!"
"Then you can go home now, the principal is a hamburger enthusiast."
"I actually think hamburgers are pretty good too."
"Don't worry, Jean Mapleburg Ironman is the renowned chef of our Duel Restaurant. His burgers have been personally certified by the Dean; they definitely won't kill you."
Holy crap, that's a pretty low bar!
"Boss, you've mistakenly put the Devil Burger into today's test burger again!" A gray-haired boy ran over angrily. "Eating that could kill someone!"
"Wow, it's Senior Bai Chen!" Some of the female freshmen's eyes lit up. "He's so handsome!"
"Senior Bai Chen, I want to have your babies... um... or maybe hamburgers?"
No, is that what you're concerned about? That person said there's a deadly threat in this pile of hamburgers! Di Xing mentally screamed.
"Oh my god!" Maple Castle Iron Man exclaimed deliberately, "Did I accidentally mix that in again? But it's fine this way, it'll be good to see the reaction of the person who eats it."
"See, you did this on purpose! Don't forget that Xiaoxi is also a freshman this year!"
