As for how to activate the new dungeon, Su Chen made a rough judgment based on the last time he activated the "Dungeon of Ancient Cultivator's Tomb.".

If he remembered correctly, he accidentally discovered that he had activated the game dungeon after arriving at the school's training room.

Is there anything special about the school's practice room?

This is true.

Legend has it that the location of Jiangnan City No. 1 High School was not decided on a whim but was the result of a special selection.

What are the reasons for this choice?

First, whether the spiritual energy of this place is strong, and second, whether the feng shui is suitable.

The former is easy to understand. After all, the concentration of spiritual power is related to the cultivation speed of teachers and students in No. 1 High School.

Why are the four major academies the four most famous colleges and universities in Kyushu?

A big part of the reason for this is that the places where the four major Taoist academies are located are among the blessed places with the richest spiritual energy in the entire Kyushu.

Many great masters and students who are willing to join the four major Taoist academies as lecturers have noticed this point.

After all, practicing in such a place for one year is equivalent to practicing in other places for two or three years; the difference is obvious.

In addition to spiritual power, good feng shui is also one of the criteria for selecting a site for a school.

After all, most practitioners, may not believe in fate, but they cannot disrespect it.

Therefore, the locations of the four major Taoist academies are not only blessed places with abundant spiritual energy but also the birthplaces of some famous sects or ancient dynasties in the past, with excellent feng shui.

Although the location of Jiangnan City No. 1 High School is not as exaggerated as the four major Taoist academies, its feng shui is also top-notch in Jiangnan.

The practice room is located in the best location among such good places.

This also made Su Chen think of the conditions for activating the dungeon.

"Perhaps the key to activating the dungeon lies in whether this area has ever had an existence that could leave traces over the years."

"I can only activate the dungeon if I get close to a place like this."

After some analysis, Su Chen felt that he seemed to have found a way to activate the dungeon.

But for now, these are just his speculations, and he cannot conclude immediately.

As for how to prove this, Su Chen has already thought about it.

"If my inference is correct, the No. 2 and No. 3 high schools, which are as famous as the No. 1 high school, should also have a chance to activate a dungeon."

"If I just go to No. 2 or No. 3 High School, I might be able to understand the principle of activating the dungeon."

As the saying goes, practice makes perfect.

The best way to verify this conclusion right now is undoubtedly to go to No. 2 High School or No. 3 High School.

If a new dungeon can be activated by then, then perhaps the time for him to awaken his innate magical powers is not far away.

...................................................................

October 8th, a small shop in front of Jiangnan City No. 3 High School.

"Shouyi, we are already in the third year of high school. How can you, a top student in No. 1 High School, not focus on preparing for the college entrance examination? Why do you still have time to chat with me?"

Zhao Lu took two bottles of soda with straws inserted and handed one to Bian Shouyi.

Bian Shouyi took the soda and looked at the bruise at the corner of Zhao Lu's eye with a frown.

"What's wrong with your face?"

Zhao Lu sat down on the stairs next to Bian Shouyi and said nonchalantly, "It's nothing; I just fell while walking."

As if he didn't want to dwell on this issue too much, Zhao Lu immediately changed the subject and said, "Don't talk about me; talk about you, Shouyi."

"I heard from Guan Shanshan, who was also admitted to No. 1 High School, that you lost to a student in the human dao class in this mock exam."

"Are all the students in No. 1 High School so powerful now? Can a student in the Human Dao Class defeat a genius like you in the Heaven Dao Class?"

Hearing this, Bian Shouyi immediately recalled his brief encounter with Su Chen during the mock exam.

He said without hesitation, "Yes, I lost, and I lost miserably."

Zhao Lu looked at him in disbelief. "No way, you admitted defeat so easily. Are you still the sword-crazed Shouyi who dared to challenge the senior students at the slightest disagreement? Could it be that you have been possessed by someone else?"

In response to this, Bian Shouyi seemed very calm.

He sipped the soda in the glass bottle and said expressionlessly, "If I lose, I lose. There's nothing wrong with admitting it, but I won't keep losing."

Looking into Bian Shouyi's determined eyes, Zhao Lu fell silent.

As a good friend who grew up with Bian Shouyi, he could not accept Bian Shouyi's failure more than anyone else.

He has been chasing after Bian Shouyi's back since he was a child.

And he hopes to stand at the same height as him one day.

If Bian Shouyi had lost to other students from the Heaven Dao class of No. 1 High School, Zhao Lu might not have thought too much about it.

But Bian Shouyi happened to lose to a student in the human dao class like him.

Even though there is an obvious resource gap between No. 1 High School and No. 3 High School, this gap is only reflected between the heaven dao classes of the two schools.

There is not much difference between the Earth Dao class and the human Dao class below.

In other words, the person who defeated Bian Shouyi was once an 'ordinary person' like him.

Thinking of this, Zhao Lu couldn't help but sigh: "Your No. 1 high school is amazing. Even the human Dao class has lost geniuses."

"If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have chosen to study at No. 3 High School because of the tuition issue. I should have gone to No. 1 High School with you."

Bian Shouyi, who was standing next to him, looked at Zhao Lu, who looked disappointed. After thinking for a moment, he said seriously, "Su Chen is special. He just loves playing games too much. Otherwise, he would have been able to enter the heaven dao class. It's not what you think."

Zhao Lu sucked hard from the straw in his mouth and said with a smile, "What's the difference? The human dao class looks at aptitude. He must have been admitted to the Human Dao Class because his spiritual root aptitude was not enough at the beginning."

"But since he can beat you right now, it means that he must have extraordinary talents in other areas besides his spiritual roots."

"Unlike me, I have a bad background, bad talent, and even my comprehension is mediocre."

"Don't even think about getting into a Taoist academy. I'm not sure if I can even build a foundation in this lifetime."

"But you are right about one thing. You, Bian Shouyi, will never lose all the time."

"Although you lost to Su Chen in this mock exam, your future will never change because of this failure. You are still the genius swordsman that we all look up to."

At this point, Zhao Lu put down the empty soda in his hand and looked deeply at the busy street not far away.

Among these people, some were walking in a hurry, looking tired, as if they had just finished a day's work and were preparing to go home.

Some people are in high spirits, dressed luxuriously, and drive expensive cars past.

And more people are like the convenience store owner behind them, wearing simple clothes, greeting customers with a smile, and living their ordinary lives.

Zhao Lu felt that his future might be like that of most people—ordinary and mediocre.

But the more he thought about it, the more unwilling he felt.

If he did not have the aptitude to practice, he might not envy others.

God gave him the qualifications to practice cultivation, but this qualification not only failed to allow him to advance to a higher level but instead made him realize more deeply the huge gap between himself and others.

He gave him a little hope, but this hope is just a little...
