Chapter 695: Chapter 696: Entered the School
Imperial Military Academy.
After the freshmen training ended, Fu Yunhe, with top scores across all categories, opted for the Command Department major.
Today was his first day of classes, but he had not yet applied for a full credit waiver.
He had to attend classes for at least a week before applying to show some respect to his teachers.
Today was also the first day he received his class schedule. After morning exercises, Fu Yunhe returned to his apartment, cleaned up, and glanced at his schedule.
“Hmm? There’s an Alchemy Class for freshmen now?”
Normally, that class didn’t start until sophomore year.
“Just attend whatever is scheduled, no complaints.”
Fu Yunhe looked at Yangyang, who had spoken, and retorted, “I’m not complaining, just find it strange.”
“Why care about it being strange? You won’t be attending for long.”
That was indeed true.
Fu Yunhe shrugged his shoulders, continued changing, and ate a meal in the apartment.
In these three months, he mostly ate in the academy’s cafeteria, only occasionally making extra meals in his apartment.
But from now on, he wouldn’t need to go there, as he wouldn’t have time to encounter other students; he was about to get very busy.
After breakfast, Fu Yunhe headed to his first class, the basic Cultivation course.
As Fu Yunhe walked towards the first classroom, Nian Shutong also just arrived at the school entrance.
This time, she didn’t need to register because Zhou Zhen, Professor Zhou, was personally waiting for her at the entrance.
“Welcome, welcome.”
“Hello, Professor Zhou.”
The two of them walked side by side into the school.
However, when they passed the entrance, Zhou Zhen specifically told the guard, “This is our school’s new teacher, Professor Nian Shutong.”
“Professor Nian, hello.”
“Hello.”
Nian Shutong calmly responded and followed Professor Zhou into the campus.
Along the way, Professor Zhou introduced various places of the school to her.
“Over there is the training ground, that building is for teaching, that one is the cafeteria…”
“There is the laboratory, there is the library…”
Nian Shutong nodded at each mention, and seriously memorized them.
“Let’s first go to your office, and then we’ll discuss the arrangement of your courses.”
“That would be great, thank you.”
Nian Shutong followed Professor Zhou towards the teaching building.
Nian Shutong’s office was located on the third floor, a separate room, spacious, and warmly decorated.
“Very nice, thank you.”
“Don’t mention it, it’s what we should do.”
The two of them sat down and started discussing the arrangements for the courses.
“We have already arranged a large group lesson in an open area today, as per your request.”
“Thank you,” said Nian Shutong, continuing, “I’d also like to discuss this course in detail with you.”
“This course is a screening process. I assume the school already has other basic Alchemy courses?”
“Yes.”
Professor Zhou’s affirmation made Nian Shutong nod, “So, my course will filter out some talented individuals to stay. I will train a group of people capable of refining balancing weapons.”
“So, as for my courses, nearly every class involves elimination, and I am the sole judge of the standards for this elimination. No one else is allowed to intervene.”
“Is that allowed?”
Zhou Zhen naturally nodded in agreement, “Yes, I will follow all your arrangements.”
“That’s good. Later, I will bring an assistant with me. I will communicate some of my arrangements to him and even let him supervise some of the classes.”
“Of course, that’s no problem.”
Nian Shutong and Professor Zhou enjoyed a very pleasant conversation.
Almost every time Nian Shutong said something, Professor Zhou would agree—whatever you want to do, just do it.
Nian Shutong also sent a message to Lian Qing; the idea of having an assistant had just occurred to her.
Teaching students was definitely not something that could be accomplished within half a year, and she truly needed an assistant. Lian Qing was the most qualified for the job.
She provided Professor Zhou with Lian Qing’s Light Computer account and identity information, and Professor Zhou promptly arranged a job for him—a teaching assistant.
When Lian Qing received the identity proof, he had not even imagined it: he had not been accepted to his dream school, the Imperial Military Academy, yet here he was, directly becoming a teaching assistant.
Life is truly full of impermanence.
If it hadn’t been for his health issues, he surely would have studied at this academy.
Due to a stroke of luck, Nian Shutong helped him achieve everything.
Lian Qing got ready and soon headed towards the Imperial Military Academy. When he found Nian Shutong by the address, she was almost falling asleep.
“Mr. Nian.”
“Hmm, you’ve arrived,” Nian Shutong straightened up in her chair and casually asked, “What time is it?”
“Lunchtime, class just ended.”
On his way, Lian Qing had already studied the academy’s schedule, the daily routine, and even the basic map thoroughly.
He knew Nian Shutong was not very concerned about these details and would definitely ask him.
At this time, he wondered whether Xiao He would go to the cafeteria for lunch.
Nian Shutong thought about it but decided to wait until the class in the afternoon; it would certainly be interesting once they met.
Her class was the first in the afternoon, attended by both freshmen and sophomores, all students related to Artifact Refining.
As for Fu Yunhe in the Command Department, due to its unique nature, he had to understand a little bit of everything.
At twelve-thirty in the afternoon, it was time for the class to start.
Many students, watching the time, walked in groups towards the practice field.
“Hey, why do we have to go to the training field for the Alchemy Class?”
“I don’t know, I also want to know why the alchemy class has to be with the freshmen?”
“It’s pretty strange; usually, you start with the basic courses, recognizing minerals and such. I’ve never heard of starting with practical work right away.”
“Why bother about so much, just take the class as it’s given.”
“Look, look, there’s Fu Yunhe!”
“Where? Where?”
“There!”
A student pointed in a direction, and all you could see was a figure of Fu Yunhe, standing tall, his uniform buttons done up to the very top, his hat worn perfectly straight, walking as if he were marching in the military.
As for his appearance, it needed no further description.
The Fu Yunhe being watched had completely gotten used to it. Although he had only been in class for half a day, wherever he was, he was like an endangered animal, pointed and stared at by people.
Many sophomore girls were quite smitten; this man dressed too ascetically, and that face, along with his talents and abilities, were all points that moved people’s hearts.
Many were itching to make a move, but those freshman girls training with Fu Yunhe were very quiet, even preferring to stay away from him.
What other grades didn’t know was that among these girls, a saying was spread:
Cherish your life, stay away from Fu Yunhe.
