Course Selection

Zhang Zhi was taken aback for a moment when he heard that. He turned back to look at the girl beside him again. He hadn't expected her to be in the same class as him. After a moment of thought, he said, "You seem to be paying a lot of attention to me?"

"Let me tell you, that's not a good sign. A girl paying too much attention to a boy is a precursor to liking him!"

The girl's face almost turned green with anger when she heard this. As if I'd ever like a brown-noser like you! She grabbed her two companions beside her, who were trying to suppress their laughter with serious expressions, and turned to leave.

After they had walked a good distance, one of the girls said with a smile, "Peng Huan, it's rare to see you get shut down like that. But what that boy said isn't wrong. It's unusual to see you so interested in a boy. Are you really into him?"

Peng Huan rolled her eyes at the girl beside her when she heard this. "Hu Yu, if you keep spouting nonsense, I'm going to get angry."

The other two girls burst into laughter.

Another girl laughed for a while and then said, "Peng Huan, seriously, why are you so interested in this boy?"

Peng Huan thought for a moment, then told them about seeing Zhang Zhi on the first day of school. Finally, she said, "Actually, I was being petty about this. He came all this way from the Orphanage by himself. Who knows how many cold shoulders he's received along the way, how much hardship he's endured. He could only get this far by carefully trying to please others."

"At that time, my dad was explaining how to apply for the scholarship to him, so it was normal for him to try and please my dad. Calling him a brown-noser like that was a bit inappropriate."

Hearing Peng Huan say this, the two girls beside her exchanged surprised glances. One of them repeatedly winked and gestured for a while, while the other smiled and nodded.

Peng Huan didn't know that her companions were making little gestures behind her back. She was wondering if she should tell Class Advisor Liu when they got back to the classroom that Zhang Zhi was currently at the Student Activity Center.

Looking at the three girls walking away angrily, Zhang Zhi smiled and shook his head. However, it was about time to head to the classroom anyway.

Regarding the courses at the Human Academy, having someone explain the details was indeed much better than figuring things out on his own.

Upon arriving at the classroom, Class Advisor Liu's first words upon seeing Zhang Zhi were, "What did you promise me yesterday?"

Zhang Zhi broke out in a sweat.

Seeing Zhang Zhi's ashamed expression, as if he had realized his mistake, she snorted coldly and said, "You're the only one in the class who hasn't introduced yourself yet. Go introduce yourself to everyone."

Looking at the somewhat formidable Class Advisor Liu, Zhang Zhi silently walked to the front row. "Hello everyone, I'm Zhang Zhi. I'm from a Small City under Qingshan Dao. Please take care of me in the future."

After speaking, he turned and glanced at the Class Advisor standing beside him.

Seeing that she still had a stern face, Zhang Zhi suppressed the urge to touch his nose and continued, "I have a few insights into the Human Path at the moment, and my Small World development is also decent. If anyone has any questions in the future, or wants to exchange information regarding Cards, you can all come find me."

Only after seeing the anger on Class Advisor Liu's face subside considerably did Zhang Zhi step down and find a seat to sit down properly.

He had indeed been in the wrong about this. He had promised Class Advisor Liu yesterday that he would communicate well with his classmates, but then he disappeared for the entire day. Anyone would be angry.

Seeing Zhang Zhi find a seat and sit down, Class Advisor Liu said loudly, "Everyone, if you have questions in the future, you can often seek out Zhang Zhi."

"He is one of the one hundred special recruits among the thirty-nine thousand plus people in our cohort."

"Furthermore, he is the only special recruit from a commoner background."

Upon hearing this, many people in the class looked at Zhang Zhi with surprised eyes.

These gazes naturally included Peng Huan and her two friends, who were already in the classroom.

One person beside Peng Huan whispered, "Wow, Peng Huan, you have great taste. That Zhang Zhi is actually a special recruit in our cohort."

"And he's a special recruit from a commoner background."

"He earned his special recruit spot with real ability, unlike those from Clans, who are basically relying on blood ties."

Another girl beside her said, "If you ask me, Peng Huan is still the most impressive. Her eye for people is really sharp. She just randomly takes an interest in a boy, and it turns out he's a special recruit in our cohort."

Peng Huan uncharacteristically didn't retort. After a long pause, she finally spoke, "It's useless. You also know he's from an Orphanage, even more helpless than Ordinary commoners."

"Even if his Talent is excellent and he's currently a step ahead, those Family Disciples will quickly catch up and surpass him with the resources from their Clans."

"Putting everything else aside, even if he currently has ten Mortal Transformation Realm Cultivators in his Small World, for Family Disciples, that's just a matter of integrating ten Green Cards."

"For disciples from Ordinary Lesser Thousand World Clans, only Purple Rank Cards are somewhat difficult to acquire. For direct descendants of Clans who can enter the Seven Dragons Academy, Blue Rank Cards and below are readily available."

One of the girls beside her said, "Peng Huan, are you looking down on him? It's rare for you to be curious about a boy."

"Also, let me tell you, if you're not interested in him, don't regret it later."

Peng Huan shook her head. "School just started. What's the point of talking about all this nonsense here?"

Zhang Zhi was currently smiling back at the classmates who were greeting him, completely unaware that Peng Huan was behind him, discussing him with her companions.

Class Advisor Liu might have seen that Zhang Zhi had behaved well just now and used the excuse of needing to introduce him to the Human Academy's courses to help him out of the situation.

The Human Academy currently had seven hundred and fifty-six Lecturers, including six Professors, and offered one hundred and thirty-six courses.

Class Advisor Liu could eloquently describe the strengths and weaknesses of all the Lecturers and Professors. She also explained the main content of all the courses, their uses in the Small World, and their development prospects in an easy-to-understand manner.

Listening to Class Advisor Liu's explanation, Zhang Zhi couldn't help but admire her professional level.

After giving a general explanation, Class Advisor Liu said to him seriously, "Those six Professors are all Middle Thousand World World Masters. Their courses are very difficult to apply for. Under normal circumstances, I wouldn't recommend anyone under me apply for them."

"But you're different. If you feel their courses are suitable for you, I recommend you apply."

"As long as your performance in their courses satisfies them, the Academic Credits they give are also very generous, and there might even be unexpected surprises later."

Hearing this, Zhang Zhi silently nodded!

He had only interacted with this Class Advisor Liu twice, but in just these two times, he could feel her genuine care for her students.

After spending over three hours giving him a detailed explanation of the Mentors and courses, Class Advisor Liu said to him, "Alright, I've finished explaining the situation, and I've given you all the advice I can. As for which courses to choose, you should carefully consider it yourself!"
