Chapter 367: "Entertainment"
"Connect me to Xu Qing."
*Beep*
"Not possible. There is no service here. The only way to call back is to hack into the main network of the continent or piggyback through someone that has the permissions."
"How were we calling Wu Jin then?"
"He has the perms on his Spirit Band. I was just using that for 2-way communication. Unfortunately, that's all I can do at the moment."
"God sakes, fine."
Hao Xuan closed his eyes and regulated his breathing while the severs enjoyed themselves around him. The meditation helped a lot when it came to reducing the migraines.
"Yo, you're up early eh?" he heard Jin Wang's voice and a stream of cold water hit him in the face.
The migraine that was on the verge of fading away returned in full force. He opened his eyes and saw a tanned Jin Wang grinning at him from the other side of the fence with a white water sphere in his hand.
"Very mature. Come here, I have to ask you a few things," Hao Xuan said trying to control his temper as much as he possibly could. Jin Wang hesitantly obliged.
Hao Xuan was on the 4th stage of the Spirit realm. He had already created 4 complete mind palaces and one that he had been working on for a while but getting nowhere. It was like there was a haze blocking his view from seeing the completed mind palace.
They sat there under the sun that never went down for several hours. Hao Xuan had a lot of questions about cultivation and a few other things, but it seemed like even Jin Wang didn't know everything. He was stumped just a few minutes in, even though he tried his best to give as much of an explanation as he possibly could.
They were only 6 days out now from reaching the academy so Hao Xuan decided to wait and get the information he needed from a teacher there or another learned person.
The days went by rather slowly. Hao Xuan stayed in his room and didn't go out further than the pool.
He found out from Jin Wang that each of these youngsters residing in the buildings around him were the children of powerful families or princes and princesses from the powers in the region they came from. And all of them were going to the Academy of Sollertia.
He meditated during the day and cultivated during the night. For some reason he couldn't fall asleep. Jin Wang said it wasn't unheard of especially from people in Hao Xuan's condition.
No one other than Jin Wang came to visit, not even Ceni who he expected to at least pay a visit after she found out he was awake, but she never did and he never got to ask her why everyone was going to the academy.
He expected there to be several questions when they found out about his severs, because it was clear he wasn't a runaway slave maybe they didn't care or just forgot, but no one bothered him at all.
On the sixth day, his spirit band vibrated with an announcement that was sent to everyone on-board. They had reached the academy and everyone was to vacate within the hour.
Hao Xuan was, of course, waiting for this moment and he called everyone back to the Mind Palace and left with Jin Wang, Fortis, and Zhurong.
Since he was in the VIP area he had to leave along with all the spoiled brats that had been sunbathing and partying since he had woken up. Not once did he see any of them cultivating so obviously he didn't have a very good image of them.
And that feeling was mutual. Hao Xuan kept to himself and even when a few of them tried to approach his residence they were turned back by Ensis. Everything from his clothing to the way he walked screamed his social status. They all knew he wasn't a royal or from a powerful background so they started treating him as such.
The VIP's were all standing in a line in front of a gate protected by 4 cultivators.
A blond-haired boy the same age as Hao Xuan stood at the front of the line with three girls around him. He had red sunglasses on and half-open shirt showing his abs.
"Why is it taking so long this time?" one of the girls around him pouted while hugging his arm. They had been waiting for over 10 minutes. Usually, there was no waiting required for VIP's so this was unusual for sure.
"Apparently there is a special guest on-board. It's for their security love, don't worry we'll be out soon," he replied with a wink. He knew a cultivator guarding the gate and had inquired about it beforehand.
There was a wave of hushed murmurs. the same girl turned around to see Hao Xuan arrive along with Jin Wang, they were about 8 spots behind them.
"Micha, look it's him," she whispered. 'Micha' turned around to see who she was referring to and a smile quickly bloomed on his face.
"Oh look, our entertainment has arrived everyone," he said rather loudly, getting the attention of over 50 people that were already there.
