Choosing courses is actually the first lesson the Academy teaches students: you don't have time to take every course; you can only choose the ones most useful to you.

It's the same with your Small World. You can't fuse every Card you think is useful into it. That will only waste your Mental Power and World Power, which is already insufficient in the early stages!

After selecting courses, the instructors are responsible for the final Assessment of the students and give corresponding scores based on the Assessment.

This score determines how much financial aid students receive at the school.

The Class Advisor's surname is Liu. As soon as she arrived, she started explaining the school's teaching model and helping the students in the class select courses.

After briefly explaining the school's teaching model, Class Advisor Liu emphasized that the class is a natural community of shared interests. For practical combat courses, everyone should ideally choose the same one so they can look out for each other.

These types of courses are usually held in Secret Realms in the early stages, and in later stages, they might go to other Worlds for practical combat.

However, in Zhang Zhi's plan, he might only stay at the Human Academy for one to two years. He might transfer to another Academy before the practical combat classes even start, so from an outsider's perspective, he seemed somewhat uninterested in the Class Advisor's suggestion.

There are three days for course selection, but this world doesn't have computers yet. After selecting courses, they need to be submitted to the Class Advisor, who then submits them to the school collectively.

The Class Advisor suggested that everyone come to the classroom for these three days so they can get to know each other and discuss how to select courses.

Seeing that Class Advisor Liu had arranged to collect everyone's course schedules here in three days, Zhang Zhi took the course materials the Class Advisor gave him and got up to leave the classroom.

Today was the official start of the school year, and he wanted to check out the Trial Tower.

Access to the Trial Tower is only possible through the Student ID after it has been officially activated.

Before the official start of school, he couldn't enter the Trial Tower.

After confirming that the Class Advisor didn't have anything else, he thought about going to the Trial Tower earlier.

Just as he got up, the Class Advisor called out to Zhang Zhi: "Student Zhang Zhi, hello. Is it convenient for you to wait for a moment?"

Zhang Zhi looked at the Class Advisor with a bit of confusion: "Convenient, definitely convenient."

After distributing the course materials, the Class Advisor said to the students in the class: "Take all the course materials back and look at them first. If you have any questions along the way, you can contact me anytime."

She turned and wrote an address on the blackboard: "I'll basically be in this classroom during the day for these three days. You can ask me anytime if you have questions. If you have questions at other times, this is my dorm. Whether it's about life or studies, you can come here to find me."

"Does anyone have any questions now? If not, you can start looking at the course materials in your hands."

Seeing that no one indicated they had questions, she said to Zhang Zhi, who was waiting nearby: "Student Zhang Zhi, shall we talk outside?"

After leaving the classroom, the Class Advisor spoke:

"You're the only student in our class who got in through the Special Enrollment Quota. You seem to have a good family background?"

"I stopped you mainly to talk about class activities."

"You seem a bit resistant to activities with your classmates?"

I know you must have some skills to be specially enrolled.

I also know that geniuses like you are usually very arrogant, but among those who can get into Seven Dragons Academy, how many weren't called geniuses at their previous schools?

Many school activities, especially later activities like the Otherworld War, are all based on the class as a group!

You might seem very powerful now, but there are many upperclassmen who have been at the school for three or four years, who have advanced to Medium Small Worlds and possess Extraordinary Realm Cultivators.

They still participate in activities with their classes!

Are they stupid?

"No, everyone needs companions."

"I'm not asking you to accept everyone in the class. I'm suggesting you participate in more class activities to see if there are suitable companions, especially the kind you can trust with your back."

"This is the original intention of the school forming classes."

After listening to Class Advisor Liu's earnest persuasion, Zhang Zhi nodded and said: "Class Advisor Liu, I understand. I will participate in the class activities from now on."

"Also, there's something I need to correct you on. I'm actually an orphan, but by chance, I met a benefactor and thus obtained that Special Enrollment Quota."

Hearing Zhang Zhi say this, a hint of surprise appeared on her face. She stared at Zhang Zhi for a few seconds, and seeing that he was still looking at her with pure eyes, she finally believed he wasn't lying to her.

She frowned and said: "In that case, you need companions even more!"

Seeing Zhang Zhi nod in understanding, she felt a bit enlightened, thinking that Zhang Zhi was using arrogance to hide the inferiority brought about by being an orphan. So, she nodded and said: "Alright then, you seem to have something to do, so go ahead and be busy."

Zhang Zhi thanked her and said goodbye, then walked towards the Subway station.

Not long after he walked out, Class Advisor Liu behind him suddenly chased after him: "Student Zhang Zhi, there's something I think I should tell you."

Zhang Zhi looked at the Class Advisor with a bit of confusion.

Class Advisor Liu slowly approached, and after reaching his side, she seemed to make up her mind and said to him: "I don't know if anyone has mentioned it to you, but students who are specially enrolled actually have some privileges."

Zhang Zhi shook his head blankly.

The Class Advisor now somewhat believed and confirmed that he was indeed an orphan. She said with a somewhat serious tone: "Then you need to be careful recently."

Seeing Zhang Zhi's confused face, she whispered: "There's actually a fixed number of Special Enrollment Quotas each year."

Originally, the quotas for each year were already internally decided. You suddenly appeared, and someone who was originally chosen internally will be pushed out.

You could say that the quota given to you this time was squeezed out from a Family Disciple.

I've heard several Family Disciples inquiring about the background of this suddenly appearing special enrollment student.

Their underhanded tactics are dirty, you'd best be careful.

Zhang Zhi took a long look at the girl in front of him, who seemed to be only four or five years older than himself. A hint of recognition began to form in his heart.

She truly cared about the students under her.

Zhang Zhi smiled and nodded at the Class Advisor. "Thank you, Class Advisor Liu. I understand. I'll be careful."

After returning the smile, the Class Advisor turned and walked towards the classroom.

After getting off the subway, the towering Trial Tower was visible in the distance. Spots for the Trial Tower didn't seem to be a rare commodity at Seven Dragons Academy. As he walked, Zhang Zhi could see many people entering and leaving the Trial Tower.

He had also casually flipped through a lot of information about the Trial Tower in the library.

Through that information, he discovered that the Trial Tower didn't seem to be as great as he had imagined!
