Card Disciple Chapter 4

Jia Ming’s actual rank is low and his foundation also wasn’t at the level of Professor Jia ZiLing’s disciple. However, he and DongWei Inst.i.tute’s Professor Jia ZiLing have a relations.h.i.+p in which he is Professor Jia ZiLing’s nephew. Precisely by relying on this relations.h.i.+p, he borrowed Jia ZiLing’s reputation to get a job teaching this training course. Jia ZiLing is aware of what his nephew did, but these things is not exactly uncommon, and he also doesn’t have any influence on these things, sometimes he even would patronize it.

Jia Ming’s rank is low, but he can speak and understand the secret in deceiving others. Copying word by word from the content of the book is not allowed, it is better to add more content to elaborate. He is fully aware that these training course students are somewhat rubbish, so he quickly tweak a little of the course content.

As long as it is simple/basic foundation, he can speak a lot; speak meticulously, to the extent that explaining just a simple theorem took all morning, explaining derivation and its derivations. On the other hand, those high-leveled foundations were skipped.

If a normal person listens, it will seem that this teacher teaching content is rather informative. However, if an expert listened, they’ll absolutely snort in contempt, saying this person is a complete liar.

Nevertheless, Chen Mu listened attentively. His foundation is too poor, at times he runs into subjects that he couldn’t understand, didn’t know where to find books that explains it and the books he read did not have the answers. Suffering because he didn’t have a guide in these past 3 years, it’s very hard for Chen Mu to advance further. In the Card Maker’s eyes, all these foundations are something that should’ve been obvious, and aren’t worthy of such detailed explanation. Jia Ming’s lecture contains a lot of the foundations, exactly to Chen Mu’s liking, and a lot of previously unclear subjects now have become clear.

From then on, during Jia Ming’s course, Chen Mo is not completely down to earth. Theory and practice complement each other, each own advancement affects the other. In the last 3 years, Chen Mu relied on himself, blindly trying to improve the 1-star energy card to no visible result. Still, this has granted him a wealth of experience. Under cross-referencing, his limit advanced very quickly.

Previously towards the original, standard structure for 1-star energy card there are somewhat obscure feelings, but now his grasp of the structure of 1-star energy card is increasingly become clearer.

“Alright, it is time for this lesson to come to an end. En, to let you all know a good news, because we and Dong Wei Inst.i.tute hold a partners.h.i.+p, as a result, we can join refresher examination held every year by Dong Wei Inst.i.tute. When all of you got back, make a card. Next time, hand it in to me. If any one of you was picked, you’ll be allowed to enter Dong Wei Inst.i.tute’s refresher course.” Jia Ming’s shows his seriousness.

Though he does not look like it, but he is very eloquent, conduct himself with quite the humour and his relations.h.i.+p with his student is quite good.

On the second day everyone exerted themselves to make a card to hand in. Chen Mu handed in 1-star energy card.

The so-called Dong Wei Inst.i.tute Refresher Test refers to those special training courses held by Dong Wei Inst.i.tute and its allies. The original intention of the test is to give those outstanding talents from the partic.i.p.ant a chance to obtain an advanced tutoring course. Over the years, though, little by little it becomes just a mere formality. Neither the organizer nor the school did consider this affair seriously. To make it more awkward, up until now, in 30 years of testing, only 2 students were ever selected.

Jia Ming also did not take this affair seriously, towards his own students he is very clear, it is very likely that none of them can produce a complete, working card. As a result, he did not register the name of the card’s creator. Rather, he put all of those cards together in a paper bag. Ai, to be born under an ill star, he still has three cla.s.ses to teach.

After finis.h.i.+ng all the courses, he ran all the way to his uncle’s office in Dong Wei Inst.i.tute, conveniently threw the three paper bags onto the table, then went on to relax and look for fun.

When Jia ZiLing returned to his office and saw those 3 bags, he can’t help but frown. Jia ZiLing is already more than 50 years old, his square face had begun to be covered in wrinkles. Although clearly these affairs are just hot air, however, since it has already been said, then the formality demands it to be done. Just, this sort of affair, how could this dignified professor need to do it?

Jia ZiLing pressed down the activation b.u.t.ton of the Instrument on his wrist, his instrument compared to Chen Mu’s is more delicate and elegant, only as big as a palm, made of pure silver and covered with carvings of complicated patterns, three belt buckle made of Mohadi’s Sawtooth Alligator skin. There are 4 card slots on top of it; at a glance it certainly must have cost a lot.

A light screen popped out in front of him with a long list of names on it. This is the activated communication card inside the device. Communication card was invented less than 30 years ago, but it already widely used at present. The communication card, depended on their long-range distance, can be divided into grades; with the highest grade of card can carry out conversation covering the whole Tian You Federation without error. However, the price is certainly not affordable by the ordinary person. Ordinary person uses a communication card that can cover the area of a city, but Jia ZiLing’s was a higher grade card, a three star card, can communicate over the whole region.

His sapphire-ringed finger taps on one of the names on the screen.

After about 5 seconds, an image of a handsome youth appears on the screen, with s.h.i.+ny half-length hair that appears somewhat gender-neutral and a somewhat cold appearance.

“Teacher, you look for me is something the matter?” Zuo TingYi respectfully says with a cold tone.

Recognizing his student Jia ZiLing says: “Come to my office.”

Approximately 10 minutes later Zuo TingYi arrived at the office.

“I want you to sort out these things.” Jia ZiLing points at the 3 paper bags above his table.

Zuo TingYi complied, immediately begin to sort out the cards inside the 3 paper bags. Seeing Zuo TingYi did not express the slightest amount of impatience, Jia ZiLing nods his head in satisfaction. Zuo TingYi is his favourite pupil, not only naturally talented and intelligent, have outstanding achievement and also very respectful to the teachers and work meticulously, nearly all of the teacher that taught him are very fond of him. He also knows how to conduct himself, every new year he sent all the teachers expensive gifts. Almost all the teacher considers him the perfect student.

Zuo TingYi arranges the card one by one, most of these cards are too horrible to look at, full of mistakes. Although his facial expression did not change, in his head, he harbours some frustration. This lousy affair, he is certainly above doing this, really knows how to put people in a bad mood.

A useless card!

Trash card!

This card, it is too excessive! On such a simple card, there are no less than 15 mistakes!

Still useless card!

Zuo TingYi’s forehead blackened with lines.

Finally, found a card that looks decent!

Zuo TingYi heaved a sigh of relief. A one-star energy card, normally he wouldn’t even take a glance. However, in this circ.u.mstance, this trivial one-star energy card actually makes him feel excited.

After sorting out the three paper bags, in front of him sat only one piece of card, a one-star energy card.

Zuo TingYi has just going to report to Jia ZiLing when a thought suddenly comes into his mind. He still needs to be attentive, lest he makes a fool of himself. Those appalling useless cards leaves a lingering fear in his heart, that if in the near future this card contains minor mistakes that he failed to discover, he’ll certainly lose a lot of face.

He promptly put this one-star energy card carefully in front of his eyes.

Yi!

He soon exclaimed, his complexion changes a little.
