Chapter 34: A sudden turn of events
"Oh, Teacher Wu, may I ask which student it is?"
Yu Zhen nodded and inquired after hearing Wu Changkong's words.
"I recommend that Tang Wulin from Class 1, Grade 1, be placed in Class 0 for training!"
"Although his spirit is Blue Silver Grass and his soul power is only level 12, it's not particularly strong." "
But his Blue Silver Grass spirit has mutated, becoming a relatively excellent control-type spirit, making it quite valuable for training." "
After all, among the students in Class 0, while Gu Yue's elementalist spirit possesses some control capabilities, we still lack a control-type spirit master with command." "
Also, Tang Wulin may possess some unawakened bloodline, giving him extraordinary power, and he also needs further observation." "
Finally, although Tang Wulin is only nine years old, he's already a Level 2 Blacksmith. He himself says he's confident he can reach Level 3 Blacksmith Master within a year."
"Dean, as you know, when applying to Shrek Academy, if you have reached level four in a single secondary profession, you can go through the special admissions process with a reduced score."
"I believe that if you leave Tang Wulin to my care for a few years, I can confidently add another Shrek student to Class Zero!"
Wu Changkong spoke calmly, his face brimming with confidence upon hearing Yu Zhen's words.
"Teacher Wu, I trust your judgment, but I still need to consult the Academy Board on this matter."
"You know, there are a few stubborn ones there, so I can't guarantee you anything about this!"
Yu Zhen nodded seriously and replied.
"Dean, I understand."
"However, even if the Academy Board disagrees with Wulin joining Class Zero, I hope that he can be an auditor, training alongside the students there." "
Although he might have fewer resources, with my guidance, his future growth will still be better than if he stayed in other classes."
Wu Changkong remained unmoved by Yu Zhen's words, but continued calmly.
"No problem. Regarding Tang Wulin's auditor status, I can agree to it right now!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Zhen decisively agreed with Wu Changkong.
"
Teacher Wu, does the dean agree?"
Wu Changkong, along with Zhao Tao and the other three, quickly returned to the first-grade class.
Upon seeing Wu Changkong, Tang Wulin hurried over, his face filled with anticipation.
"I've already explained your situation to the dean. Whether it's feasible depends on the dean's discussion."
"But you can rest assured."
"Even if the dean disagrees with your admission to Class Zero, the dean agrees. You can attend classes with Class Zero as an auditor, but you'll be denied access to some of the resources."
After hearing Tang Wulin's words, Wu Changkong told Tang Wulin the truth.
"Great! Thank you, Teacher Wu!"
Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin bowed sincerely to Wu Changkong, feeling extremely grateful for Zhao Tao's advice and Teacher Wu's help.
Unexpectedly, things could actually turn around!
Even if he couldn't enjoy the resources of Class Zero, he could continue to study with Brother Tao, and that was enough!
"Okay, say goodbye to the students, and go to the new classroom this afternoon!"
As he spoke, Wu Changkong led Zhao Tao and four other students into the classroom of Class One, Grade One.
Looking at the five people entering the classroom, the students in Class One, Grade One stood up and applauded!
"Classmates, I've seen all your hard work over the past three months."
"I'm going to Class Zero and can no longer guide you."
"But I hope you maintain your current momentum, continue to work hard, uphold Class One's reputation, and become powerful spirit masters in the future!"
"Keep going, classmates!"
After bidding his final goodbyes, Wu Zhangkong, along with Zhao Tao, Gu Yue, Xie Xie, and Tang Wulin, headed to the new classroom for First Grade Class Zero!
As promised by East China Academy, the conditions for First Grade Class Zero are truly exceptional.
Their classroom has been relocated to a large, independent classroom with a nearby spirit fighting arena. This allows them to combine
combat and teaching
, perfectly suiting Wu Zhangkong's practical combat style.
Furthermore, their dormitories will be relocated to private rooms.
They will enjoy the same treatment as regular teachers at East China Academy,
including three free meals daily.
Help them to better improve their Qi and blood and strengthen their bodies.
"From today on, you are students of Class Zero!"
"As for Wu Lin, you will temporarily study in Class Zero as an auditor."
"As students of Class Zero, your future courses will also change!"
"Today's first lesson starts with mecha!"
Looking at Wang Jinxi and Zhang Yangzi who had already arrived at the new classroom.
Wu Changkong first introduced Tang Wulin's situation in a few words, and then spoke lightly.
"Mecha? Teacher Wu, we are only first-year students. Mecha should be a course in the advanced department!"
Hearing Wu Changkong's words, Zhang Yangzi questioned with some confusion.
"You are students of Class Zero, and your goal is Shrek Academy, so the training path is different from that of ordinary classes!"
"If you can't accept this, you can voluntarily withdraw. We don't need mediocre people in Class Zero. If you want to stay, then pay attention in class!"
Wu Changkong glared at Zhang Yangzi and said calmly.
Feeling Wu Changkong's cold gaze, Zhang Yangzi immediately shut up!
Then, Wu Changkong began to talk about the history of mechas!
From the initial soul guides, they gradually evolved into large soul guide mechas.
And with the development of soul guide technology, they gradually evolved into today's medium-sized mechas that take into account attack, defense, and flexibility.
"However - your future development direction is definitely not ordinary mechas, but battle armors!"
At this point, Wu Changkong's voice paused!
"The truly powerful will not make their bodies bigger!"
"Therefore, high-level mechas above purple will develop towards miniaturization, relying entirely on the soul power of the soul master himself!"
"Until, it is as small as a close-fitting armor, or even completely integrated into the soul master's body!"
"This, then, is the battle armor. It completely combines a spirit master's spirit with a mecha, representing a truly powerful being!"
"And to become a powerful battle armor master, a second profession is essential!"
"Mecha design, mecha manufacturing, or mecha training—I suggest you choose one of these three as your second profession!"
Looking at Zhao Tao and the other six students, Wu Changkong spoke eloquently.
"Teacher Wu, as spirit masters, shouldn't we focus more on cultivating our spirit power, and at most learn some mecha control?"
Gu Yue asked, somewhat puzzled, after hearing Wu Changkong's words.
"That's a good question!"
"To become a truly powerful battle armor master, one must be intimately familiar with and close to the battle armor!"
"And this requires the spirit master to personally participate in the creation or training of the battle armor!"
"Only in this way can the spirit master gradually become inseparable from the battle armor, and obtain the battle armor that best suits them!"
"This is also the direction of your future efforts!"
Wu Changkong patiently answered Gu Yue's question.
Time flew by.
Soon, the afternoon class was over.
"Teacher Wu, Tang Wulin, please follow me to the dean's office!"
At that moment, Long Hengxu also hurried over and found Wu Changkong.
