Qian Lei let out a mischievous laugh. “I thought you would choose the Duo Mecha Master eh. Most of our cla.s.smates would choose it after all. It’s quite remarkable if one could become a battle armor master in the future, aren’t you going to consider it?”

Lan Xuanyu then said, “I like battle armors too; I have both Jin Long Yue Yu and the silver Dragon Emperor Douluo garage kits, but I’ve liked wars.h.i.+p piloting since I was little, I don’t want to give that up. I plan to choose both the wars.h.i.+p piloting and battle armor master, what do you think about that?”

“Not too good eh! There is something in common between mechas and battle armors for Duo Mecha Masters like forging and such. But wars.h.i.+p piloting and battle armors are poles apart; this would definitely require more time and hard work. You better think it through carefully! The teacher mentioned just now that it would be very hard to change your secondary career once you’ve decided. Your Spirit Power isn’t considered very high and if you choose these two secondary careers that are so different, it might take up a lot of your time, it’s not very good,” Qian Lei said.

“Thank you, I will think about it. What about you? What would you choose?” Lan Xuanyu asked curiously.

“Wars.h.i.+p piloting foundation!” Qian Lei said very naturally.

“…” Lan Xuanyu’s lips twitched, “Didn’t you just persuade me not to go that path?”

Qian Lei chuckled. “I’m different! My spirit isn’t reliable but I am a fast learner. My Spiritual Power is the top in cla.s.s too. Otherwise, how did you think I got into this cla.s.s? Did you think I relied on my unreliable summoning?”

Lan Xuanyu was stunned. “So you also want to choose both battle armor master and wars.h.i.+p piloting? How high is your Spiritual Power?”

“I haven’t tested recently but it should be around 130 to 140. Hehehe,” Qian Lei said.

Lan Xuanyu estimated that his Spirit Power should be about 100 but he didn’t expect that Qian Lei’s Spirit Power would be higher than his, this was indeed a surprise. There really wasn’t any ordinary student in the Elite Junior Cla.s.s.

“My Spirit Power is also about 100, is it enough to learn these two subjects?” Lan Xuanyu said.

“What? You’re also 100? So strong? Are Twin Spirits so formidable?” Qian Lei said in surprise and because he was shocked, his voice was a little loud and attracted the teacher’s attention.

“Both of you, stand up.” The teacher lifted his hand and pointed at both of them.

Qian Lei then realized that he was a little loud and quickly covered his mouth as he stood up.

Lan Xuanyu didn’t have a choice either. It was just his first day and it was the second time the teacher called him out already…

The two people stood up and faced the teacher’s burning glare.

“Do you guys have any questions? You guys were urgently discussing it in cla.s.s.” The teacher said plainly.

Qian Lei and Lan Xuanyu looked at each other and were about to speak but the teacher raised his hand and stopped them. “Don’t speak, let the new student answer. You’re Lan Xuanyu right?”

“Yes,” Lan Xuanyu nodded.

Looking at his big beautiful eyes, the teacher’s stern expression turned slightly gentler. “Tell me, what were you guys discussing about?”

Lan Xuanyu answered, “Teacher, we were discussing about our secondary career choice whether it is possible to choose both wars.h.i.+p piloting foundation and battle armor minor. Qian Lei said that these two would consume a lot of energy and it isn’t easy to master them well. But I really liked both of them and both Qian Lei and I want to minor in them.”

The teacher was taken aback. “Minor in wars.h.i.+p piloting and battle armor?” He was quite intrigued too, “Where did you guys get your confidence, then? Just like what Qian Lei said, these two would use up a lot of energy and having determination wouldn’t be enough to master them well. It requires both talent and capability, not a single one can be omitted.”

Qian Lei couldn’t help but speak up. “Teacher, didn’t you say it just now? Wits and Spiritual Power are correlated; we both have high Spiritual Power so going for both should be fine, right?”

“Both of your Spiritual Powers had already exceeded 50?” The teacher’s eyes lit up.

The moment he said that, the other students in the Elite Junior Cla.s.s looked at them. One must know that at their age, it wasn’t a simple task if their Spiritual Power could exceed 50.

“Over 100 already, hehe,” Qian Lei said a little smugly.

He had always been the last in cla.s.s because of his unreliable spirit so his outstanding Spiritual Power was his proudest achievement. It was exactly because of this that he got into the Elite Junior Cla.s.s.

‘Over 100?’

As expected, a tinge of surprise flashed across the teacher’s eyes. He specialized in teaching general knowledge and didn’t really know the details about each student’s basic qualities. What did a Spiritual Power of over 100 mean? He obviously knew it very well. Many Spirit Masters with four rings and below may not be able to reach that standard! These kids were only seven to eight years old and only had around one Spirit Ring; they were truly the cream of the crop.

“Sit down. Although you guys have strong Spiritual Power, I still think you guys need to go through a more thorough a.s.sessment and evaluation before you can decide whether you can take on these two careers. Both of you must know that once you decided to choose these two, the learning that you have to take on will be very heavy. I’ve already talked about wars.h.i.+p piloting foundation just now, and battle armor manufacturing is not any less complicated. Also, it uses a lot of resources. Battle armor manufacturing is divided into other aspects as well and it’s not an easy task for one to become a battle armor master.”

Lan Xuanyu was listening attentively. He had already joined the cla.s.s two months late and was already lagging behind, he also realized that the things taught in the Elite Junior Cla.s.s were really different. There was much more to learn about and he would miss out if he gets distracted even for a little while. Luckily, his strong Spiritual Power allowed him to have a powerful memory, and he really felt a sense of accomplishment in just a day.

“Before the cla.s.s ends, I would like to remind all of you that this month is the last month for you guys to get accustomed to life here. From next month onwards, the Elite Junior Cla.s.s will enter high-intensity learning. You will have to work at 6 in the morning every day and you would also work at 8 in the evening. The bedtime would always be 10 at night, and there will be a day of rest every two weeks so all of you would have to adjust well and prepare yourselves.”

Lan Xuanyu only found out in the afternoon that Mu Zhongtian was their form teacher. He was in the top management initially at the junior academy, but because of that incident, he was sacked and was eventually a.s.signed to be the form teacher of the Elite Junior Cla.s.s. He was the one responsible for planning their entire curriculum.

“Alright, that’s all for today. Cla.s.s dismissed, and Lan Xuanyu, please stay back.”

The other students left and Mu Zhongtian brought Lan Xuanyu to his office.

“How are you? Are you adjusting well? I heard that you sparred with Jin Xiang? And you won?” Mu Zhongtian smiled. He still felt very guilty towards Lan Xuanyu because of his negligence that almost took his life away and it was not known whether there will be any side effects even now.

Lan Xuanyu then said, “Teacher Mu, I am getting used to it. Jin Xiang and I…”

Mu Zhongtian smiled. “Don’t worry, the Elite Junior Cla.s.s encourages compet.i.tiveness. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have arranged all of you in groups of three. But your dormmates are ranked at the back in cla.s.s, it depends on whether you can try your best to turn the tide.”

“The first three months in our Elite Junior Cla.s.s is the adjusting period for all of you, then, we will begin grooming everyone. During this process, it is highly possible that some students will be eliminated as they are unable to handle it. The main purpose of starting the Elite Junior Cla.s.s and the fact that the school had invested a huge amount of resources was to groom outstanding talents. I heard that you wanted to choose the wars.h.i.+p piloting foundation. I can’t give you much advice on this but the school has a rule that if one wants to minor in both wars.h.i.+p piloting and battle armor master as secondary careers, he or she will have to go through a series of tests. The school must make sure that you guys have this potential and this is also our responsibility towards all of you.”

“Yes, Teacher Mu, I understand.”

Mu Zhongtian then said, “The tests will begin a week later and you just have to keep yourself in good shape. You have missed a few lessons in front; come and look for me after school every day. I will give you extra cla.s.ses so you wouldn’t be lagging behind at least with your basic knowledge.”
