His decision had indeed been somewhat irrational. Perhaps it was the most irrational decision he had made since turning ten.
Chen Ye thought silently.
He had learned what restraint and going with the flow meant long ago. When the warrior path proved impossible, he listened to his mother and chose the Mental Department route, drawing on the Night Demon Clan's resources. Although what he truly liked most was the content of the Arcane Transformation Department, especially the Space Department, his bloodline was more suited to becoming a Magic Pet Trainer, so he had abandoned his preference without hesitation.
Years of being sensible had given him an unusually mature air for someone so young.
But this time, he had indeed acted on impulse.
His father had originally advised him to take the Shandar Academy examination. His father had an old friend at Shandar Academy, so he would be taken care of if he enrolled. Moreover, although Shandar Academy was a Martial School, it had been striving to improve its overall quality in recent years. It was actively developing its other disciplines, and the instructors it hired were also highly qualified. It was the academy best suited to his circumstances.
But in the end, he still could not accept it.
He had scored 706 on the basic examination, with a perfect score of 750. That score was at the top-scholar level throughout his galaxy. With such a score, he could clearly choose a more ideal academy.
His father was someone who respected his children's choices. Just like with his eldest sister—even when she chose to stand on Raine's side, their father had not stopped her, much less interfered with his choice of life's path.
After failing to persuade him, his father had not forced the matter. Instead, he had supported his decision.
