After settling Wang Manxi, Chu Feiyue followed the old village chief to his house, where the front yard had already been repaired, and there was a teleportation array leading to the outside world. However, this array could only send people out; no one could come in. As for objects, there were no restrictions, so the novice village could actually communicate with the outside world.
"Originally, adventurers had to pass a trial to leave. But since you killed Misha and fulfilled the wish of our entire village, I can't really ask you to complete that trial anymore." The village chief inserted his cane into the activation port of the teleportation array in the corner of the garden, activating it.
"Sir... how about the Flower Court? I think there are some people who would like to meet you."
"It's nothing." In front of the old village chief, a semi-transparent large map appeared, very similar to the territory of the Heavenly Dynasty. Many small dots were scattered on it, densely labeled with city names. Among them, the Fertile City in the east and the War City near the south were the largest points on the map, while the other points were smaller.
"Sir, our Holy Dawn Empire has vast territory, with one capital, four super-large cities, twenty-one large cities, and countless medium and small cities." The old village chief pointed at the map proudly. "The capital was sealed off when the adventurers descended. The Sandstorm City in the west and the Ice City in the north have environments that are too harsh, so they can't be teleported to."
"And the Flower Court where you are going..."
He pointed to a very small dot in the middle of the map.
Chu Feiyue didn't really care where he was going.
So, Chu Feiyue nodded and stepped onto the teleportation array with Qin Yue. The old village chief twisted his cane, activating the teleportation function.
A beam of white light rose from the teleportation array, enveloping the two of them.
After watching Chu Feiyue disappear from the teleportation array, the old village chief pulled out his cane and gently stroked it.
"Flower Court... the achievements of the candidate are boundless."
"Congratulations to the first player to complete the novice village trial and teleport to the main map. As a reward for this behavior, the system grants 1 gold coin and 50 reputation points." x3
In a certain trial space, Lan Cangming was pulling his long sword out of the trial boss, the Black Tiger's eye, wiping it twice before sheathing it. When he heard the system notification, he was taken aback.
"Ha, I was a step too late, and I lost..."
The impact of these three system announcements was undoubtedly huge. At a time when the average level was 4 to 5, and the elite players were barely at level 6.5, someone had already reached level 10 and completed the novice village task?
Are you kidding me? Is this a bug?
Players with such thoughts flooded the customer service lines, but the response they received was always, "The user has not violated any rules. Thank you for your supervision."
Thus, the great discussion about who the first player to leave the village was began.
But these were the concerns of those bored players. They definitely wouldn't find Chu Feiyue...
The teleportation from the novice village was much more reliable than the natural will. It was just a moment of darkness and light, and he arrived.
However... Could the Flower Court be built inside a tree?
Chu Feiyue looked around. He was standing on a circular altar, and the white marble disc he was standing on was engraved with countless strange characters. With his current strength, he couldn't decipher the meaning of these characters, but he could feel their function and the immense power flowing through them.
The area around the altar was very spacious, far from the walls. The walls were covered with branches and vines, resembling a giant tree. Countless flowers of various colors spread across the walls, making the entire wall look like a dream.
But there was no one here.
Chu Feiyue instinctively reached back. Sure enough, his sister was gone...
There must be some powerful people looking for me, right? This place doesn't look like a teleportation room at all.
"Ah! You've appeared!" Suddenly, a woman's surprised scream came from a trumpet flower next to Chu Feiyue. "Please wait a moment, we will come to welcome you."
Chu Feiyue curiously looked at the trumpet flower that made the sound and stayed put.
Soon, a hole opened in the tree wall next to the altar. Then, a group of elemental sprites with various colored wings "whooshed" out. The leading sprites, mostly male and female with two wings, lined up in two rows, leaving a clear path in the middle. Then, a second wave of elemental sprites emerged, mostly middle-aged, with only a few young ones who were much more composed than the first group. They all had four wings. These four-winged sprites stood in front of the two-winged sprites, blocking the space so that only four people could fly side by side.
The four-winged sprites all adopted a respectful posture, waiting for the important person. The two siblings also waited eagerly...
Finally, the main person arrived.
Under everyone's gaze, two elemental sprites with three pairs of tri-colored light wings floated out of the hole. Or rather, one of them was strolling leisurely, while the other was anxiously circling around the slow one.
The slow sprite had long, light silver hair and wore a small crescent moon crown. Her eyebrows, like the moon, framed a pair of tranquil, milky white eyes. Her features were clear and elegant, but the blue ceremonial robe embroidered with countless golden and silver full and crescent moon patterns completely hid her figure. Her wings were light yellow, sea blue, and the holy, milky white of the moon.
The anxious sprite circling around her was a little girl, no more than fourteen years old. Unlike the other sprites, her wings were six petals. As she waved her water blue, light green, and sun-golden petals, various colored fluorescent powders were scattered throughout the space. She wore a heavy, white, waist-cinched dress, with the skirt supported to look extremely large and puffy. The upper left corner of her bodice was embroidered with a small, radiant golden sun, and the skirt was adorned with countless colorful gems forming a beautiful pattern of a hundred flowers facing the sun.
Now, the sprite with the petal wings was constantly circling around the sprite with the moon-colored wings, occasionally trying to pull her, but unfortunately, the slow one remained slow, no matter how much she was pulled.
It looked unexpectedly comical...
