Ding-a-ling-ling~
As soon as the class bell rang, the entire teaching building instantly became noisy.
Shen Ping sat in his seat, unmoving. His mind had not yet fully processed the fact of his Transmigration.
"Hey, Old Shen, tomorrow we'll both be 18 years old. Then we can go to the High Tower and enter another world. I heard that world is full of opportunities. Tsk, tsk, maybe I'll become a powerhouse as soon as I descend!"
Shen Ping's deskmate was full of longing.
"Wake up, Wang Can, stop dreaming. The world inside the High Tower is full of opportunities, but it's also full of dangers. And so far, the highest-ranked individual Globaly is only at the Universe Rank, and according to the current data on the High Tower World, the Universe Rank is just cannon fodder!"
A student from the back row sneered.
Wang Can shrugged, completely unconcerned, "What do you know? That's because I haven't gone in yet. As long as I go in…"
As they spoke, the two began to argue.
And Shen Ping's mind became even more confused.
God of War, Planetary Level, Astral Rank, Universe Rank…
Why did these terms sound more and more familiar to him?
"Wait, Wang Can, Li Wen, stop arguing for a moment. That High Tower World you just mentioned, is there someone named Luo Feng in it?"
Shen Ping couldn't help but interrupt.
Li Wen rolled his eyes, "Shen Ping, have you studied yourself silly? There's no one named Luo Feng in the High Tower World!"
Shen Ping was startled. No Luo Feng?
Could it be that this High Tower World wasn't the novel he was familiar with?
At this moment.
Wang Can said, "Li Wen, what you're saying is too absolute. The High Tower World is incredibly vast. Not to mention anything else, just the Earth descent point is highly similar to our Blue Star, and there are thousands of names in it, so there must be someone named Luo Feng!"
Listening, Shen Ping eagerly pressed on, "Wang Can, in this Earth descent point, are there martial halls?"
"It seems there are martial halls, like the Dojo of Limits, Thunder Martial Hall, and so on…"
Wang Can scratched his head, "You can just look these up online. I mean, Old Shen, Li Wen wasn't wrong about one thing: you've studied yourself silly. What era is this? No matter how much you like to study, you can't not even know about the High Tower World!"
Shen Ping didn't reply. Instead, he quickly took out his phone and looked up information about the High Tower World online.
Upon searching.
Various pieces of information confirmed it.
Shen Ping finally confirmed that the world inside the High Tower was the Swallowed Star he was familiar with!
Next, he browsed various forums, even during class, his mind was elsewhere. By the time school was dismissed, his eyes were astonishingly bright!
Because he discovered.
Almost no one knew the specific development of the entire High Tower World, nor did they know that Luo Feng was the protagonist of this world.
Even the information disclosed by the government had no mention of Luo Feng.
This meant that if he entered the High Tower World, he could use his foresight to rise rapidly. Without mentioning anything else, just by clinging tightly to Luo Feng's thigh, even if he were an ordinary person, he might still reach the World Lord level in the future!
Hoo.
Thinking of this.
Shen Ping's breathing quickened.
Although he had just Transmigrated, after the previous research, he was very clear about the importance of the High Tower World to reality.
It could be said that the core of this world was almost the High Tower World, and even governments of various countries forcibly mandated residents over 18 years old to enter the High Tower World.
If one could make a name for themselves inside, then they could quickly gain huge benefits in reality.
"High Tower, I must go to the High Tower!"
Shen Ping knew this was his opportunity!
…
Just before school ended.
The head of discipline suddenly walked into the classroom.
His expression was solemn.
Making all the students feel a bad premonition.
"Students, don't rush to leave yet, I have something to say!"
The head of discipline scanned the room, took out a list, and slowly said, "The country's new list for New Recruit enlistment has been released. This time, our school is a major source of soldiers for New Recruit enlistment…"
As soon as his words fell.
The classroom was deathly silent, and all the students' faces turned pale!
Wang Can was even trembling, muttering continuously, "Don't let it be me, don't let it be me!"
The head of discipline's voice continued.
And every time he called out a name, that student seemed as if they were about to die, crying with a weak voice.
"Shen Ping."
"Wang Can."
As these two names were called.
Wang Can slumped onto his desk, "It's over, it's really over now!"
Not long after, the head of discipline left.
But all the students remained seated.
Shen Ping quickly went online to check the situation of New Recruit enlistment. Upon checking, he was scared out of his wits.
New Recruits were actually going to the battlefield!!
"Wori, I'm too unlucky, I just Transmigrated and I'm going to the battlefield??"
Shen Ping was on the verge of tears. New Recruits going to the battlefield was no different from being sent to their deaths, no wonder the other students reacted so strongly.
After a long while.
The students left one by one.
"Old Shen, you and I are truly brothers in misfortune, to be enlisted as New Recruits together!"
Wang Can's legs were weak, and he swayed as he walked.
But Shen Ping had already recovered. After all, no matter what, the fact was already set, and crying wouldn't help.
Fortunately, New Recruits had at least three months of training before going to the battlefield. If he could enter the High Tower during this period, there might still be hope for survival.
"Wang Can, don't be disheartened. We're both 18 years old. Before reporting to the New Recruit Camp the day after tomorrow, we can still enter the High Tower World. Maybe you'll be a Planetary Level as soon as you descend, and then you won't have to go to the battlefield!"
Shen Ping comforted him.
Wang Can's eyes lit up upon hearing this, "You're right, I still have hope, the High Tower World is hope!"
"Tomorrow, tomorrow we'll go to the High Tower!"
…
Returning home.
Shen Ping's mind was in a mess; too many things had happened that day.
After splashing cold water on his face, he sat on the sofa, suppressing the chaotic thoughts, and carefully sorted through the original owner's memories and the information he had researched today.
Half an hour passed before he finally got his thoughts in order.
Just as he had told Wang Can earlier, the High Tower World was the only hope for survival in the New Recruit Camp.
"Three months of training, there's still time!"
Shen Ping's gaze gradually firmed. The time flow in the High Tower World was ten to one compared to reality, meaning that if three months passed in reality, three years would pass in the High Tower World.
And with two and a half years, as long as the High Tower World was indeed the Swallowed Star he knew, he would have a great deal of hope.
In the evening.
His parents in this life returned. Upon learning of the matter, his father said nothing, but his mother cried uncontrollably, constantly urging his father to find a solution.
But his father was just an ordinary worker; what could he do when the country was enlisting New Recruits?
Finally, his mother could only accept reality. Fortunately, Shen Ping was going to the High Tower tomorrow. As long as he could achieve something in the High Tower, he would be able to overcome this difficult situation.
… …
Early the next morning.
Wang Can arrived downstairs at the community and called out.
Shen Ping had been thinking about this all night, so he quickly ate breakfast and went downstairs.
"Let's go, I can't wait!"
"Did you bring your ID card?"
"I have it!"
As they spoke, the two rushed out of the Yinhui Community and took a bus. In less than half an hour, they saw a tall tower standing in the suburbs of Zheng City.
Arriving in front of the tower.
Shen Ping saw many mottled marks on the surface of the tower, including distinct claw marks, which looked gruesome and terrifying.
"Those were left when the Vicious Beasts besieged the city."
"Ever since we had Universe Rank powerhouses, the Vicious Beasts that ravaged the Devouring World were driven into outer space. However, it's said that the battle in outer space is still fierce, and the government was even recruiting soldiers a while ago!"
"Once we enter the High Tower World and gain strength, we'll be able to go to outer space to kill those Vicious Beasts!"
In front of the tower, there were many students who, like Shen Ping and Wang Can, had turned 18. They discussed in low voices.
After a night, Wang Can had recovered. He gritted his teeth and said, "Old Shen, just watch, as long as I descend into the High Tower World, I will definitely become a Planetary Level powerhouse!"
Someone next to him scoffed, "What's a Planetary Level? Many who choose alien races are Planetary Level as soon as they descend, some are directly Astral Rank, and some lucky ones are even Universe Rank as soon as they descend!"
Wang Can's eyes widened when he heard this. "What, Universe Rank? You must be kidding, currently the strongest power is only Universe Rank!"
That person shook his head, "It's natural for some to be Universe Rank as soon as they descend, but it's very difficult to advance from Universe Rank; it often takes hundreds or thousands of years to advance one stage, not to mention in reality. That's why, up to now, the highest power on Global Earth is still Universe Rank."
Seeing that Wang Can was about to ask more, Shen Ping pulled him aside. "Alright, Wang Can, you'll know all this once we enter the High Tower World!"
"Right, right."
As they spoke, the two walked to the back of the line and queued up.
Fortunately, there weren't many people in the line, and it wasn't long before it was their turn.
"Please show your ID cards. If you are under 18, you are not qualified to enter!" At the main entrance of the tower, soldiers in military uniforms stood guard, and an officer routinely questioned them.
Shen Ping and Wang Can took out their ID cards.
Both of them were high school seniors, so they were old enough.
The officer glanced at them and nodded, signaling the soldiers next to him to let them pass.
Shen Ping and Wang Can quickly stepped into the tower.
