Chapter 274 - The Deans of the Great Five!

Moss constantly thought about how to deal with the following matters as he followed behind the senior with an extraordinary temperament.

He had previously heard Jonya introducing them to him. The Great Five consisted of the equipment academy, the pharmacy academy, the strategy academy, the combat strength academy, and the spiritual power academy.

Each academy had different divisions, such as support, assault, etc. Every student who entered Kyoto would find their respective divisions. Of course, every academy had its own focus and training philosophy.

The equipment academy focused on training the students’ equipment manufacturing and upgrading abilities to increase their overall strength faster. If one could create a rare divine weapon, they could significantly increase their strength and leave their names in history books.

The pharmacy academy focused on training students to make potions, search for resources, and develop formulas. Compared to other schools, the pharmacy academy had more divisions, including the pharmacy, resource, formula, and other divisions.

Although some pharmacy departments had to study for five years, the first year mainly taught basic skills and knowledge. However, when students entered the second or third year, they could use the knowledge and skills they mastered to earn GPA and money by selling refined potions, resources, and formulas.

The strategy department aimed to cultivate command and combat talents, but the combat strength requirements were not high. Combat-oriented talents would eventually enter the battlefield, and one of the most crucial abilities of such talents was to hold onto their own lives.

Otherwise, it would be a massive blow to the army if combat-oriented talents got killed so easily. The combat strength academy mainly trained students to understand their professions better and unleash their abilities to the extreme.

As the name implied, the spiritual energy academy was to train more potent spiritual energy experts. The improvement and application of spiritual energy in more aspects would promote overall strength improvement.

As more people paid attention to spiritual power, the number of students who entered the spiritual power academy increased yearly, gradually becoming a hot topic.

While Moss was in deep thought, the man leading the way stopped at the threshold of a stair classroom. Then he turned to Moss smilingly, “This is the place, Moss.”

He knocked on the door, opened the classroom door, and gestured to welcome Moss in.

Moss said respectfully, “Thank you!”

Then he entered the classroom. There were discussions in the lecture hall when he entered, but they quieted down after Moss entered.

He was puzzled, ‘Why did they choose such a big classroom?’ After entering, Moss finally understood why. He saw five white-haired elders sitting down. Behind each elder sat a dozen or so people with varying numbers.

According to Moss’s estimation, these people should be teachers from various academies.

One of them was a burly middle-aged man, and Moss had already recognized him as Kyoto’s ace teacher, Arnold, a high-level expert.

Moss’s heart shook when he saw this scene. ‘What a grand lineup!’

Initially, he thought it would just be five principles. He never thought the teachers would also be present.

“Greetings, everyone.” As soon as Moss entered, he bowed to the teachers and principals.

Since Moss was so polite, the five principals and teachers nodded. A moment later, an older man dressed in a black Chinese tunic sitting in the middle with a pair of bright eyes said, “Moss, I called you today to select an academy.

“Let me introduce you. From left to right are the five principles of the Equipment Academy, Pharmacy Academy, Spiritual Power Academy, Strategy Academy, Combat Strength Academy, and their respective instructors.

The person speaking was Burton, the Spiritual Power Academy’s principal. He had observed Moss’s every move since he entered the lecture hall.

When Burton saw Moss enter, a trace of astonishment flashed across his face. However, he has felt calm and composed ever since. He could not help but praise inwardly, ‘This isn’t an ordinary kid.’

Then a tall, bespectacled man from the Equipment Academy on the far left stood up. He gently adjusted his black spectacles and said, “Moss, I am Ivan, the assistant to the Equipment Academy’s principal. Let me introduce the Equipment Academy to you.”

Ivan explained the Equipment Academy in detail, “The Equipment Academy is one of the first three major academies established by Kyoto. We will provide you with an additional gift if you join us.

“During your four years in Kyoto, we will provide you with the highest-grade equipment you can use at different levels.”

…

During the Equipment Academy’s introduction, the other academies’ teachers also discussed in low voices. When they heard about the gifts Moss would receive from joining the Equipment Academy, the other teachers’ discussions became even more intense.

“The Equipment Academy is sincere in recruiting Moss.”

“That’s right. With Moss’s growth rate, his frequency of changing his equipment should be quick. Moss will be a considerable expenditure if he matches himself with the highest-grade equipment.”

“Moss can already use 5-star equipment since he’s at level 35. With his talent, he can reach level 60 within four years of studying in Kyoto. From the looks of it, he should be able to use at least 8-star equipment by then. Five to six-star equipment is still adequate. However, 7-stars and above will become harder to obtain.”

…

When Burton finished speaking, the principal of the Equipment Academy beside him revealed a determined smile. His eyes were full of radiance.

After listening to Burton, those from the Combat Strength Academy on the right started introducing their academy. Afterward, those from the other three academies also introduced their academies and gave their preferential conditions.

For example, the Pharmacy Academy promised to provide Moss with the best pills to strengthen his body, qi, and blood during his four years in Kyoto. The Strategy Academy promised to train Moss to become a first-class military strategist in the country before he graduated.

The Combat Strength Academy promised to train Moss to become an advanced beginner powerhouse. In comparison, the Spiritual Power Academy was more attractive.

Besides giving Moss the secret manual to train his spiritual power, they also promised to raise it to the highest level in the same year. The Spiritual Power Academy had never given anyone such a deal before.

It was like this today because the Great Five had discovered Moss possessed a Sacred Tabu Sheep through their investigations. They knew he could tame such a Magical Beast and had close to 100% intimacy with it.

From this point, the Dean could conclude that Moss’s spiritual power differed from ordinary people’s. Making such a promise would let the other academies feel their confidence and determination to recruit him.

The Spiritual Power Academy knew they would not need to spend too much time and energy to train Moss. As expected, the other academies felt their confidence was lacking when the Spiritual Power Academy stated its conditions.

The Equipment Academy’s Dean’s eyes flashed as he looked at Moss with anticipation. His loud and clear voice sounded, “Now that the Great Five have introduced themselves and given their sincere conditions, which one do you favor more?”

Simultaneously, everyone focused their gazes on Moss.
