On the other side, Wu Feng quickly arranged the follow-up matters, and the awakening tests for all the remaining children were postponed to tomorrow.

The sudden incident had terrified all the children, and postponing it to tomorrow also gave everyone some time to buffer.

"Zhou Yi, Qin An, you two come with me."

Teacher Wu took the two of them to a nearby rest area. The crowd had dispersed, and the principal was closely accompanying the researcher, watching him repair the awakening pod as quickly as possible.

The vast square suddenly became empty.

Wu Feng, at 41, returned to his alma mater to teach after retiring from the army due to injury. Since Qin An and Zhou Yi enrolled, Wu Yue had always been their homeroom teacher.

"Qin An, your talent star weave pattern is the sun. Let alone our D-class star block, it's rare even on an A-class star block. Don't waste such good talent. Go back and discuss it properly with your parents. You must go to a mech school in an S-class star block, do you hear me?"

Eighty percent of the children who could enter an S-class star block mech school would eventually go to the army, with a bright future.

"Yes, teacher, I know. I'll discuss it properly with my parents when I get back and strive to go to Huabang Military Academy!"

Huabang Military Academy, Pulitzer Military Academy, and Meg Military Academy were known as the three major military academies of the Alliance, all of which were super S-class military academies on S-class star blocks.

Many military officers and generals in the Alliance now came from these three schools, and they formed different factions through alumni relationships.

"Good ambition, teacher believes you can do it!"

Wu Feng patted Qin An on the shoulder.

"You go home and discuss it with your parents first. Teacher needs to talk to Zhou Yi alone."

Qin An glanced at Zhou Yi hesitantly. Although she wanted to stay and comfort her, she also understood that it would seem like showing off if she, with her sun star weave, stayed. After thinking about it, she agreed and went home first.

"Zhou Yi, the awakening pod malfunctioned today, it must have scared you, right?"

"It's okay, teacher, I'm fine. It was just a bit hot inside."

Having just received a wave of free energy and successfully activated her third star point, Zhou Yi was in a great mood and said with a smile.

"Alright, are you coming tomorrow? It's better to apply for schools after knowing your star weave."

"No, teacher. I already have my answer after coming out just now."

Zhou Yi revealed a star point pattern behind her neck.

"One dot, just like my dad's."

Zhou Yi said it casually, with a smile on her face, showing no sign of disappointment at all.

Wu Feng had learned about Zhou Yi's family background from the principal. He also knew that his student had always been diligent and hardworking with goals and ideals. He was just worried that Zhou Yi might not be able to accept it, so he wanted to stay and comfort her.

Unexpectedly, the little girl was cheerful, looking even happier than Qin An, who had gotten the sun.

"Okay, seeing your positive attitude, teacher is relieved. Go home and have dinner."

Wu Feng tried to touch Zhou Yi's head, but before his hand could reach it, he naturally withdrew it after seeing the layer of oil on her hair.

Zhou Yi: ..., this is a socially embarrassing day indeed.

When Zhou Yi returned home, she only had time to greet her parents before rushing into the bathroom.

Water resources were scarce on planet D71, and not every household took a bath every day.

But today, Zhou Yi decided to indulge herself and wash thoroughly!

After washing thoroughly for half an hour, Zhou Yi finally felt clean.

After getting dressed, Zhou Yi paid 50 Star Coins for water on her Star Brain. The half-hour bath she took was equivalent to her family's water consumption for a month.

"Come and eat after your bath."

There was only one last meal of the dried insects left from yesterday, and Tang Zhen called her daughter to eat.

At the dinner table, the couple didn't ask about their daughter's talent at all, only inquiring which school Zhou Yi wanted to attend.

"How about Walton next door on D72? It's your dad's alma mater. If nothing else, it'll guarantee you a happy three years!"

All mech schools were tuition-free. As long as your Star Power was high and your abilities were strong, there were excellent scholarships.

Walton was a D-class mech school, arguably one of the worst.

But Zhou Yi readily agreed, "Okay, I'll go there. I'll apply when I get back to my room later."

And so, the problem of applying for schools, which was the most troublesome for every family, was settled in Zhou Yi's home in three seconds.

Walton Mech School was a place Zhou Yi had often heard her parents mention since childhood. It was not only Zhou Jiang and Tang Zhen's alma mater but also where they met.

As for Zhou Yi, since she didn't want to reveal her talent too early, it didn't really matter which mech school she went to.

Back in her room, Zhou Yi quickly found the application page for Walton School on her Star Brain and submitted her personal information.

For her talent star weave pattern, she filled in "Star," a talent that could indeed be called the worst.

"Maybe they won't even accept me at Walton."

Zhou Yi touched the star point that appeared on the back of her neck. She had compared it carefully; it was even smaller than a normal person's Star pattern, and you couldn't tell unless you looked closely.

Everyone filled in the results of their awakening test truthfully when applying for schools, as their Star Power values would be tested annually at school. At that time, their talent star weave would naturally be visible, and there was no way to hide it.

Zhou Yi felt a little embarrassed after submitting his application, scratching his head. He thought that if Walton rejected him, he really couldn't think of any worse school that would be suitable for him to apply to.

Ding~

Zhou Yi received a message on his Star Brain.

He looked down and saw that Walton had accepted his admission application.

It had only been a few seconds; Walton's speed was too much. Zhou Yi seriously suspected they had approved it without even looking at his information.

Of course, that was indeed the case.

Star block D72 was not much better than D71, which was a fast-dissolving star block. It was a place that even people from its own star block were unwilling to go to, let alone people from other places.

After failing to recruit people for several consecutive years, the Alliance had issued an ultimatum: if they didn't meet their recruitment quota, Walton would have to close down.

Thus, Walton, which originally had some standards, completely let go.

As long as someone applied, no, even if it wasn't a person, as long as they applied, they would all be accepted.

Zhou Yi: "How bad is this school? Huh? They'll even take me?"

She even regretted applying to Walton a little, thinking it might have been too hasty. Even if she had decided to be trash, she should have struggled a bit.

If Walton's admissions officer knew what Zhou Yi was thinking, they would definitely curse her out. "We didn't even dislike you, and you have the nerve to dislike us! Hold your tongue!!"

System, don't worry. You'll understand when you get to school!

Walton isn't such a simple trash school~
