“I suggest that we take turns. Only one person needs to come on a daily basis to help everyone charge their spirit energy. This way we can save time for everyone.”
The first proposal put forth by the small group was unanimously accepted.
Ming Yuhua, who also agreed to this proposition, was elected as the temporary spokesman for the Metaphysical Class.
He seemed to be quite happy and immediately stated that he would be the one to assist everyone in charging their spirit energy the next day.
After leaving Building Number One at the top of Crimson Mountain, everyone went out for a meal. After finishing, Ming Yuhua urged Chen Mobai and Yunyang Bing to continue the evening with him.
“Your advisor is also Master Shaoyang, right?
When it was just the three of them, Ming Yuhua asked first.
“Correct, it is said that he has been cultivating in seclusion for ten years, trying to break through from the third level to the fourth level of Gold Core.”
Yunyang Bing seemed to have inquired quite a bit and talked with a hint of worry.
Among the Dance Tool Dao Academy, only Master Shaoyang has completed Core Formation using the Pure Yang Scroll. If they choose to cultivate the Pure Yang Scroll, they can only be assigned as his students.
“I heard that Master Shaoyang has already reached the fourth level of the Gold Core, but he is still in seclusion because the cultivation of the Pure Yang Daoist Body is dragging on. I don’t know if we can meet this master in our ten years at the Daoist Academy.”
Ming Yuhua also wore a face of helplessness.
“In the future, let’s all be brothers of the same school. Do keep in touch.”
Seeing that the atmosphere had started to sink, Chen Mobai changed the topic and raised his glass. The other two immediately clinked glasses.
“By the way, what courses do you guys plan on taking?
Ming Yuhua was the first to ask, then he continued by sharing his own plans.
“I plan to develop towards becoming an Artifact Refiner, so I will major in ‘Artifact Refining’ and ‘Treasure Appraisal’, and minor in ’Spirit Material Identification’, ‘Original Ore Extraction’, ‘Metallurgical Engineering’, and
’History of Magical Instruments’.”
Upon hearing Ming Yuhua’s choice, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but give him a thumbs up.
The Dance Tool Dao Academy offers 18 major courses and 72 minor courses.
Among them, major courses are worth 3 credits, and minor courses are worth 2 credits.
The academy requires each student to complete 10 credits each year.
If Ming Yuhua enrolls in all these courses and passes all of them at the end of the term, he could earn U credits in a year, a feat could be dubbed as a super overachiever.
Chen Mobai plans to only get 10 credits because he will also have to spend time mingling in the Divine Wood Sect. He does not have as much time for studying. ■”Spirit Material Identification’ and ‘History of Magical Instruments’ are closely related to appraisal, while ‘Original Ore Extraction’ and ‘Metallurgical Engineering’ are the basics of artifact refining. My two majors and four minors are all carefully considered. Do you guys want to join me? It’ll be good company during class time.”
Ming Yuhua was quite enthusiastic, but both Chen Mobai and Yunyang Bing shook their heads in refusal.
Yun Yang Bing expressed his thoughts: “I want to study formations, so I probably will choose related courses like ‘Geology’, ‘Environmental Studies’, ‘Atmospheric Sciences’, ‘Astronomy’, and ‘Spirit Vein Studies.
After hearing this, Chen Mobai gazed at him in amazement and couldn’t help but ask.
“Are you planning to study ground and sky arrays simultaneously?”
The method of array formation is divided into heaven, earth, and man.
The formation is based on people, mountains and rivers, and the spirit veins, and the array formation is based on the heaven, stars, and all kinds of phenomena.
Among them, the earth array is complicated, the sky array is vast, and the human array lies somewhere in between.
Many people who learn array formations tend to choose one among heaven, earth, and man initially. It’s only when their progress in formations hits a bottleneck that they think of learning the other two types of arrays to gain insights through analogy.
That Yun Yang Bing would immediately take on the highest difficulty of studying both the earth and sky arrays from the get-go could only speak for his confidence that was typical of students who have been admitted into the Dance Tool Dao Academy.
“Old Chen, how about you?”
Chen Mobai saw the other two looking at him and hesitated for a moment. He originally just planned to major in one course “Inscription Symbols”, and then minor in related courses such as “Ink and Pigments Extraction”, “Stabilization Studies”, “Rune Paper Manufacturing Technology”, “Calligraphy”, “Rune Paper Layout” etc., hoping to scrape by with 10 credits each year.
But since the other two were so hardworking, he felt embarrassed to express his intention of just getting by.
Was this the attitude of students who had been legitimately admitted to the Daoist Academy? They hadn’t even started school and they were already being so competitive.
“I should be majoring in ‘Inscription Symbols’, ‘Puppetry Technique’, and for the minor courses, I’ll choose two that are closely related.” “Puppetry Technique? Why would you choose something so unpopular?” When they heard his words, Ming Yuhua couldn’t help but look shocked. “I’ve loved robots and figurines since I was a kid, and if I use puppets, they can replace me in exploring some dangerous places. Plus, after seeing that amazing Faceless Puppet today, I feel that this subject has a lot of potential.” Chen Mobai didn’t lie, he indeed took a liking to the Faceless Puppet, and wondered if he could use it to simulate his own cultivation of the Immortality Technique and the Two Phases Technique.
In the future, he will definitely delve deeper into the Tianhe Realm. If he learns puppetry technique, he feels it will be incredibly useful.
The more he thought about it, the better it seemed to Chen Mobai and he couldn’t help but slap the table.
“Here’s to the hard work we’ll put in over the next ten years at the academy.”
The three men drained their glasses, thus having quite a few rounds.
“Old Chen, which dorm are you in?”
After finishing their meal, Ming Yuhua and Yunyang Bing noticed that Chen Mobai was walking in the opposite direction and they couldn’t help but ask curiously.
“I’m used to living alone, so I rented a small house outside the campus.”
“That’s also allowed?”
Yunyang Bing was very intrigued upon hearing this. He also preferred quietness, and researching formations required a large area. It would be best if he had his own experiment area.
After they parted ways, Chen Mobai returned to his wooden shack.
He looked up to see that the lights in the villa on the mountain where Meng Huang lived were bright. It seemed she had already returned.
After cleaning himself, he lay on the bed and took out his phone.
After mentioning that he wanted to study puppetry technique, Chen Mobai suddenly had a brilliant idea.
Because he didn’t trust anyone in the Tianhe Realm, he was the only one who could chop the logs for business.
Although it was very profitable and the demand at Bud Hall was high, he also had to cultivate. He had to be careful not to be discovered, and he felt a little overwhelmed.
What if he used puppets in place of himself to chop the logs? It seems this would perfectly solve the problem.
With this in mind, Chen Mobai became restless.
He began to search the internet for puppets or robots that could replace manual labor.
However, this search made him curse the crafty merchants.
The cheapest puppet robot that can drive a Rank-1 magic artifact and recognize simple commands was almost 100,000 Good Deed Points.
It wasn’t that he didn’t have that much money, but the thought of investing so much all at once made Chen Mobai feel reluctant.
He couldn’t understand why the puppets were so expensive.
Unable to hold himself back, he directly sought consultation from the shop. After chatting, he found out that it’s because he had added the keyword “recognizable commands” to his search.
The puppet robots were not expensive, but those capable of recognizing commands contained artificial intelligence core chips. These components were integrated onto spirit stones, and they were definitely not cheap.
So, it’s the spirit stones that are expensive!
Chen Mobai understood.
But after understanding, he felt it was even less worth it..
