“I have discussed with my dad, I will be enrolling into the same university as you! Heheh…” Zheng Ziliang waved at them.

“Hop on, what are you waiting for?”

Lin Jiawu put on a stern expression habitually. He commented, “How can students drive to school by themselves?”

Zheng Ziliang had a lot of respect for Lin Jiawu. Although he was a rich man's kid, he was a kind soul and did not put on airs like what normal rich kids did. He answered respectfully, “Uncle Lin, actually it's quite common for students to drive by themselves to register at their universities. The standards of living have improved for everyone, and it's no big deal that some students own cars of their own nowadays. Uncle, you also know that I am not one who likes to brag about riches—you can see that this car is not a branded car. In any case, it will be a lot more convenient if we have a car for transport purposes, isn't it?”

Lin Jiawu blinked and looked at the luggage he carried. He suddenly felt a bit uneasy—would he make Lin Jie a laughing stock among his peers if he accompanied Lin Jie to his school just like that? He took another glance at Zheng Ziliang's car and then smiled at them, coming to a bitter decision at heart.

“I suddenly remembered, your mother had asked me to help replenish stocks at the fruit stall. Jie, maybe you want to just go ahead with Ziliang.”

Lin Jie felt a pang of guilt. He was about to reject Zheng Ziliang's offer when he saw Zheng Ziliang wink at him. Zheng Ziliang hopped down from the car, revealed a wide grin and said, “Uncle, well, actually… I don't have a driver's license.”

“What? Then you still dare to drive?” Lin Jiawu reprimanded sternly. “Ziliang, I know you come from an affluent family, but you still need to abide by society's rules and regulations…”

“Yes, Uncle… Hmm, why don't you drive us there instead?” Zheng Ziliang immediately followed up and offered Lin Jiawu the driver's seat.

Lin Jiawu pondered for a while and finally agreed. “Okay, then.”

“Hehe, let's hop on!” Zheng Ziliang took over the luggage Lin Jiawu, and Lin Jie were holding onto and placed them into the car. He then clapped his hands and said smilingly to Lin Xiaoxue, “Little Xiaoxue, do you want to let Bro here take you for a ride?”

Lin Xiaoxue knew how close her elder brother and Zheng Ziliang were, and hugging onto Lin Jie's arms, she chuckled. “Haha, you look like a weird and dangerous old uncle. I will rather stay with my own Bro, he's more humbled and safer-looking!”

Lin Jie's mouth twitched. “Thanks.”

After he got onto the car, Lin Jie finally understood why Zheng Ziliang decided to drive a minivan to fetch them. As a rich young master, Zheng Ziliang had even more luggage than him. The space in the car was filled up with things like a portable washer, portable oven, portable refrigerator, portable cleaner machine, and even portable toilets. He wouldn't be able to bring even half of his planned luggage if he drove his flashy Rolls-Royce over.

Meanwhile, Lin Jiawu felt quite happy that things turned out as such. He finally could accomplish his dream of sending his son to university, and he wouldn't need to worry if his appearance with all the luggage would embarrass Lin Jie. This was a great idea for Lin Jiawu, and he was so pleased that he forgot about Zheng Ziliang's lack of a driving license soon enough. If not, he would most probably start educating Zheng Ziliang again during their drive.

Lin Jie and Zheng Ziliang sat in the car's rear seats and talked away merrily.

Zheng Ziliang smiled and said, “Do you remember the unstable Engineering Grenade I made last time? I used it to bomb open a Goblin Engineering Mentor's dungeon. Guess what I found?”

Lin Jie was shocked. There were only five Goblin Engineering Mentors within The New Age, and each of them were all skilled and talented rich beings. Moreover, goblins were known for protecting their dungeons, just like how the giant dragons would protect their nests. It was an amazing feat that Zheng Ziliang could actually bomb open a goblin's dungeon!

Without waiting for Lin Jie's response, Zheng Ziliang revealed the answer excitedly, “I got an Azure Titan's Heart (Azure Heart)!”

“Aren't you being persecuted by them for stealing it?” asked Lin Jie.

“Hehehe… Yes, I am. Hence, I dropped down to Level 16 now. Please help me level up…” said Zheng Ziliang as he scratched his head.

Lin Jie almost puked blood. To drop to such a level, how long was he being persecuted by the goblins exactly?

However, he secretly felt that all this pain was worth it if Zheng Ziliang managed to get the Azure Heart! The Azure Heart could allow its bearer to make Mechanical Gargoyles, which could only enter into a contract with their creator. This was a powerful Summoned Beast that Contract Summoners could use, and it had Hardened Skin with Mana Reduction effect. At the same time, it could also launch Sonic Attacks.

In summary, this was a great Summoned Beast that Contract Summoners could use.

“I am going to bring you to a place after we go online. We need to gather the materials to create the Mechanical Gargoyle for you. After I am done with my mission, I will help you to level up,” said Lin Jie. It would be a great help when exploring the second Main Plot dungeons if they could make the Mechanical Gargoyle.

Lin Jiawu pulled into the car parking. “Still talking about games when you are at school! Go and complete your registrations now, I will wait for you all here.”

School would officially commence 10 days after their registration date. Following which, they would be served the “torturous” military training…

Lin Jie carried his main luggage case on his shoulder and laughed at Zheng Ziliang. “Haha, let's see how you can carry so many things over.”

Zheng Ziliang rolled his eyes. He took out the luggage case which contained his living necessities and clothes and left all the other portable devices on the car. “All these were forced onto me by my relatives, I will just keep them in the car first. If not, I will find some opportunity to bring them back.”

“I want to follow you guys too!” Lin Xiaoxue hopped down from the car. Her innocent and youthful face attracted the stares of many freshmen and seniors who were in charge of the reception process.

“Huh, what do you want to follow them for? Your brother's going for registration only!” commented Lin Jiawu.

Xiaoxue hung onto Lin Jie's arms and said, “Well, I need to keep a lookout for Bro, in case he falls in love with someone and neglects his studies! If I accompany him throughout the registration process, those who don't know our relationship will most probably think that I am his girlfriend, and then… haha, I can help prevent the above-mentioned situation from happening at all! Doesn't it make sense?”

Lin Jiawu pondered for a while and nodded. “Yes, it does. Go on then.”

Zheng Ziliang almost burst out with laughter. Meanwhile, Lin Jie was flabbergasted—as an undergraduate now, he was still not given permission to fall into love in case he “neglects his studies.” This was such an honor.

Many boys sighed as they saw Lin Xiaoxue hugging onto Lin Jie's arms.

The trio came to the freshmen registration counter. There were teachers and student volunteers who directed them to the correct places and offered services like helping to carry the freshmen's luggage along the way. All these were helpful volunteers, and they had signed up for such hard work on their own. These people did it to help ease the freshmen's nervousness and expressed welcome to them on behalf of the school. Indeed, they were great and respectable figures.

However, as the saying went, 'There are all kinds of fishes in the sea.' One would discover to their disdain later that several of these male volunteers were actually just making use of this opportunity to pick up girls. After all, there was no better time to get a girl than now.

To be honest, actually, most of the male seniors present here had signed up for this volunteer opportunity so eagerly mainly for the purpose of courting pretty female juniors. This was a common trend, so these male seniors couldn't be counted as “disdainful.”

“Brother Xiao, look at that newbie, the girl who's wearing the light yellow dress.”

“Wow, she's pretty! I think she's about on par with the prettiest girl in our major.”

“Cheh, she's much prettier than her—that girl only looked pretty because she knows how to use make-up! Hey, what's that expression for, I am a thorough lover of young, fresh girls!”

A few guys started arguing vehemently at a corner. One of them folded his arms across his chest, admiring—rather, eyeing Lin Xiaoxue lecherously.

Many girls kind of ended up looking gaudy after they started putting on make-up during their university days. It was rare to find such innocent and cute-looking girls… Of course, he didn't mind helping girls lose their innocence, that is.

“Great day to you all seniors, my name's Zheng Ziliang,” introduced Zheng Ziliang smilingly as he put down his luggage. He had already reached his turn in the registration queue. “Can anyone help me with my luggage?”

Many male seniors walked away as if they didn't see them. After all, their services were mainly provided for female freshmen only.

At this moment, a tanned guy donning a basketball jersey came over and picked up his luggage. He grinned at Zheng Ziliang. “Let me help you. Which hostel are you heading to?”

Lin Jie was also about done with the registration process by now. However, he did not put down his luggage—he was prepared to carry it all the way to his hostel.

“Hi, newbie, what's your name?” Lin Xiaoxue was following behind Lin Jie originally, but the crowd pushed them apart. At this moment, the guy named as 'Brother Xiao' came up to her and smiled in a gentlemanly manner at her.

A good smile, showing concern, and being polite was always the best weapon to pick up female juniors!

Lin Xiaoxue waved her hands and answered politely, “I'm not the one doing the registration. Please let me pass.”

“Hehe, such high defenses up.” He smiled and put on a look of understanding before making a gesture with his hand. “There you go.”

Lin Xiaoxue immediately chased after Lin Jie and Zheng Ziliang.

It was a long path to their hostel. The three of them passed through a small woods known as the 'Make-out Woods' along their way.

“Hi, pretty junior. How about becoming friends with me?” A hooligan lookalike guy carrying a green arrow and wearing a sleeveless singlet blocked Lin Xiaoxue's path.

“Get off!” Lin Xiaoxue was feeling really annoyed now. She regretted not listening to her father's advice and staying in the car.

The hooligan flashed her a wicked smile which he thought was very suave and drew in a deep breath as he placed his right hand on the stem of a tree nearby.

“Pretty junior, don't be so heartless. I am Guo Wangtao from Dance Club, you can join our club if you are interested…”

“Guo Wangtao, you again! You always harass the female freshmen every year. Did you not have enough of the punishments I gave you last time?” A righteous-sounding cry ranged out from behind Lin Xiaoxue! That 'Brother Xiao' jumped out and waved his hands, motioning for Lin Xiaoxue to stand behind him. “Junior, I think you should return to your hostel asap, this fellow's a famous hooligan and good-for-nothing.”

“I… You… Thanks,” Lin Xiaoxue couldn't help but feel grateful towards this senior who helped her out.

“Hmph, Zhou Xiao, are you feeling too comfortable at holding on to the position of the Chairman of the Economics Studies Society? Great, count yourself lucky this time!” commented Guo Wangtao angrily as he made a gesture to leave.

Zhou Xiao was secretly pleased even though anger was written all over his face. This hooligan had helped to announce his name, his status and contact details all at a go. He might as well have blatantly announced to Lin Xiaoxue, 'Go and look for him, he is a Chairman!'

How would a normal hooligan do such things to convenience others? Naturally, this hooligan was part of a pick-up strategy devised by Zhou Xiao. Normally this tactic could earn him a chance to get a meal with girls, and hence things would progress smoothly after that.

“Why leave now?” commented Zheng Ziliang lazily. How could he ignore things if Xiaoxue was the one being bullied?

Behind the hooligan, Lin Jie was already shooting out killer stares while carrying his luggage. However, when he caught sight of the “gallant knight” Zhou Xiao, both of them got a shock.

“It's you!”
