When system cheat becomes rampant! -
Chapter 18: Chapter 18: Literary Dao and Martial Dao
Yang Hua was still waiting for Kong Xiuwen's response when Kong Xiuwen, surprised by Yang Hua's sudden change of attitude toward him, had yet to recover.
After a moment, Kong Xiuwen shook his head, "No need, teacher, I'm used to sitting at the back, and it's quite nice sitting with Xiang Beifei."
Yang Hua glanced at Xiang Beifei and continued, "You and he are not on the same level. Sitting together won't do you any good."
Kong Xiuwen shook his head again, "No need, thank you for your kindness, teacher, but really, it's not necessary."
After saying that, he sat down and gave Xiang Beifei a thumbs-up gesture.
Seeing that Kong Xiuwen had declined, Yang Hua felt slightly displeased but did not show it further and said, "Xiang Beifei, you should feel lucky that someone with an S-class talent is willing to sit with you. But you should be aware of not influencing him negatively, I will keep an eye on you."
Xiang Beifei didn't mind and just quietly looked at his book.
As usual, before starting the class, Yang Hua liked to point out others' faults to increase his prestige value.
He would overlook students with R-class systems and specifically target those with N-class for criticism.
"Don't worry about him, I've got your back from now on," Kong Xiuwen said quietly.
Xiang Beifei smiled.
Kong Xiuwen had grown up with him since childhood. Although Kong Xiuwen had awakened an S-class system and had shot straight to the top, he did not disdain him, an "N-class" Awakener. Instead, he was quite righteous—yesterday, he had even planned to give Xiang Beifei the awakening elixir he got.
Such a person was indeed worthy of true friendship.
"You just keep pushing," Xiang Beifei said.
"Let's push together! I'm not the same as before; I'll let you in on a little secret, I've reached the Qi-Controlling state, and I'm now a formal cultivator. If anyone bullies you, just come to me, and when I make it big, I'll take you along for the ride!" Kong Xiuwen declared boldly.
"Okay."
Xiang Beifei nodded.
He didn't tell Kong Xiuwen that he, too, an N-class system user, was a Qi-Controlling cultivator.
After Yang Hua had gained a wave of prestige value, he finally started the lesson.
"Now that everyone has awakened their systems, and having had a half-day holiday yesterday, you all must have gained some understanding of your respective systems. How you complete the system tasks from now on is your choice. However, I want to emphasize one thing—"
Yang Hua cleared his throat and continued, "Our alliance's college entrance exam is in July, and now it's May. With the exam two months away, you need to decide whether you want to apply to a liberal arts university or a martial arts university, which is very important!"
Those transformed by systems, in order to survive in this boundless desolate land, can cultivate with the help of their systems.
Anyone who enters the Qi-Controlling state is called a cultivator.
Cultivators are further divided into warriors and scholars.
Since the types of systems vary, some systems lean toward martial prowess while others toward strategy. Therefore, after the college entrance exams, examinees can choose a martial arts or liberal arts university based on the characteristics of their systems.
Martial arts universities emphasize practical combat. After graduating, one can pursue careers like pioneers and city defenders.
Liberal arts universities, on the other hand, are more oriented toward various sectors of life, including business, medicine, or the service industry, including entertainment.
In this world, the most revered are the warriors.
A large part of this is because desolate beasts from outside the domain often attack human cities, and without warriors to respond, it would be hard for human society to remain secure.
Thus, warriors hold a considerably high status.
Of course, this doesn't mean that scholars aren't powerful. Many scholars' systems are also very strong, and their combat power is not less than that of warriors.
Becoming a warrior or a scholar isn't a clear-cut distinction, it's just that when choosing a university, it's better to base your choice on your system.
Because martial arts and liberal arts universities offer different training conditions.
Relative to others, martial arts universities focus more on actual combat, providing more stringent teaching conditions, including training in the outer desolate lands.
Whereas liberal arts universities offer fewer opportunities for combat, focusing more on the trivialities of daily life, thus their teaching conditions are more diversified.
Only by choosing a university that matches the characteristics of your own system can you attend a truly good university.
"You have just awakened your systems; over the next few days, you should carefully consider which area your system tends more toward. You must determine what general type your system is, and don't just impulsively decide it belongs to something like the plant industry and then go apply to a martial arts university, as it will only hinder your future!"
Yang Hua said sternly.
Xiang Beifei was reminded of his past world.
This was somewhat similar to choosing a major during the college entrance exams back then.
In the former world, there were no systems, and when choosing a major, many relied on their parents' suggestions.
Some parents wished their children to pursue respectable professions like doctors, so they forced their children into medical studies. As a result, the children, having no interest in medicine, struggled through college and could only end up selling medications or changing careers after graduation.
Also, some students couldn't get into the major they wanted and were adjusted to other majors. Facing a major they disliked and unable to meet the conditions to switch majors, they gave up on themselves, essentially equating graduation with unemployment.
But in this system world, such problems would be much less common.
Because everyone chooses their university based on the characteristics of their system, which creates a very purposeful approach, and parents would not force their children to apply for a major they dislike.As long as the students themselves aren't stubborn, they would normally be able to get into a suitable university.
"Teacher, what if one can't discern whether their system is more suited to the liberal arts or the martial arts, then what?" Kong Xiuwen raised his hand and asked.
Kong Xiuwen's "Bald System" was S-rank, but his system did not readily indicate which path to take—it seemed viable for both the literary Dao and the martial Dao.
Seeing that it was Kong Xiuwen who asked, Yang Hua explained patiently, "This is what I am going to talk about next. Each person must undergo a 'System School Selection Consultation'.
Starting today, the school will arrange experienced system counselors to help you understand your own systems on a one-on-one basis. You don't need to tell the counselors what your system is; you just need to ask them any questions you don't understand."
"Counselors will protect your privacy and won't leak any information about your consultation. You can rest assured about that. All participating counselors are discreet and will not delve into matters they are not supposed to ask about. However, you too must learn to weigh your questions carefully."
Yang Hua's words prompted the entire class to start whispering among themselves.
Everyone had only awakened their systems the day before, and many didn't fully understand what their systems were exactly.
The System School Selection Consultation was undoubtedly a great help for these novices.
