Choice of Second Profession
"Uh, actually I haven't decided yet," Zhang Yangzi said.
"Well, I'd like to learn Mecha Repair," Gu Yue said.
"Huh? You want to study Mecha Repair? You're a girl! I thought you'd choose Mecha Design," Xie Xie said curiously.
"Tch, only a brainless person would think that way," Gu Yue said.
"You..."
"Gu Yue, I think Xie Xie has a point. It's not that girls can't choose repair work, but it's true that this kind of work is more tiring and dirtier, and it's easy to damage your health. But we really have to consider your health. Are you alright?" Wu Yang Jin asked seriously.
"Huh? Yang Jin, you're actually thinking of me like this! I'm so happy! But thank you for your concern, and since Yang Jin care about me so much, I'll have to study even harder!"
"But to be honest, I'm still thinking that I could also study design, so that I can design mechs with Yang Jin in the future! Or you can help me build them!" Gu Yue clapped her hands and said.
"Oh! Okay." Wu Yang Jin replied.
"Yang Jin, I can also study design or manufacturing, so we can choose manufacturing together! Besides, Yang Jin, you and Wulin probably want to learn about mecha if you have the time, right?" Hu Meier chimed in.
"Oh? That's great! I thought you'd study design like Gu Yue, Meier," Wu Yang Jin said.
Afterwards, the group returned to their dormitory after finishing their meal, but Wu Yang Jin and Tang Wu Lin did not.
"Yang Jin, I plan to do this..." Tang Wu Lin said.
"Hmm? Is this okay?" Wu Yang Jin asked.
"Don't worry, there won't be any problem. The two of us working together will be twice as effective," Tang Wu Lin said.
"That's no problem, but I have another idea. Let me tell you, it's possible..." Wu Yang Jin said.
"Wow! Really? I can give it a try," Tang Wu Lin agreed.
After that, the two of them continued to forge over the next few days. Besides training, they also worked on getting the item that Tang Wu Lin and Wu Yang Jin had mentioned, the one that everyone should have.
"Wulin, I think after this final exam, shouldn't we find some time to take the Level 4 exam?" Wu Yang Jin asked.
"Huh? Is it okay now?" Tang Wu Lin asked.
"I think that's about right. We need to have confidence in ourselves," Wu Yang Jin said.
As they finished forging the metal, Wu Yang Jin's soul-guided phone rang.
"Hey, Yang Jin, come over here with Wulin in a bit. I need to talk to you two about something," Mu Chen said.
"Oh? Master, what is it? Can you tell me a little?" Wu Yang Jin asked.
"Hey kid, this is a good thing. You'll see when you get here, hahaha," Mu Chen said.
"Okay, we'll be there shortly," Wu Yang Jin replied.
"Teacher, we're here!" Wu Yang Jin and Tang Wu Lin greeted each other as they entered the room.
"Okay! Come here, have a seat," Mu Chen said.
After the two children sat down, Mu Chen handed each of them a metal card with intricate and complex patterns on it, and three large characters written on the other side, "Spirit Ascension Platform".
"The Spirit Ascension Platform? What is this?" Wu Yang Jin asked.
"A card from the Spirit Ascension Platform?" Tang Wu Lin said in surprise.
"Yes, that's right, it's the Spirit Ascension Platform. I'm sure you all know about it at school. In a few days, the Spirit Ascension Platform will enter its turbulent period, which is the best opportunity for you to hone your skills! Perfect timing, I've prepared two invitation cards for you. You can hone your skills there. However, please be careful," Mu Chen said.
Suddenly, he looked at the two children and fell silent.
"What's wrong? What's going on?" Mu Chen asked.
"Master, this is too precious. I think we should leave it to my senior sister. She definitely needs it too," Wu Yang Jin said.
"Yes, Senior Sister should need it too, right?" Tang Wu Lin said.
"Haha, I'm so glad you all care about Xi Xi so much and that your relationship has improved! But you don't need to worry or have any concerns. I already got it for her. And if you run into each other inside, you can look after each other." Mu Chen said.
"Uh, Master, it's like this, our academy also helped the seven of us from Class Zero enter the Spirit Ascension Platform during the Riot Period as a final exam, so we were worried that this would be a waste," Wu Yang Jin said.
"Oh, I see... Hmm? Wait, did your academy handle it for you? Or all of it?" Mu Chen asked, somewhat surprised.
"Yes," Wu Yang Jin replied.
"Oh? It seems your academy really values you two highly. This is quite a lot of attention. But it's alright. Since that's the case, you can go again later. For you two little geniuses, one more spot means one more opportunity to gain experience. Just accept it and don't refuse," Mu Chen said.
"Okay, then thank you, Master. You've gone to so much trouble," Wu Yang Jin said.
"Thank you, Master!" Tang Wu Lin said.
After that, Mu Chen chatted with the two of them for a few minutes, and then they went back to business. During these three days, the two of them tried what Wu Yang Jin had mentioned, which was to drip a few drops of their blood onto the things they had prepared.
Since both of them roughly knew what was going on, they wondered if dripping their respective dragon blood into the forged items would have any different effect, perhaps even some kind of blessing.
After that, the two returned to their dormitories, knocked on everyone's doors, gathered in Tang Wu Lin's room, and handed everyone something.
Back in the dormitory, Tang Wu Lin didn't go to his own room first, but knocked on each room door one by one.
"Captain, you're finally back. What do you want to do with all of us?" Zhang Yangzi asked.
"Yeah, I'm getting a bit bored. Yang Jin, you and Wulin aren't here, so I have to cultivate by myself," Xie Xie added.
"Hey, this is it, everyone try it out quickly," Wu Yang Jin said as he distributed the items.
"Yes, this is what we'll be using tomorrow. Everyone take a look, and if there's anything unsuitable, Yang Jin and I can make some changes," Tang Wu Lin said.
"Yes, there's still time," Wu Yang Jin said again.
Afterwards, Wu Yang Jin handed over a metal vest, which looked somewhat like chainmail. The few people didn't know what kind of metal it was made of, but there were faint patterns on the metal plate.
