Although it was Transcendent school, the opening ceremony was no different from that of an ordinary university. After the school leaders finished speaking, Lancelot, the freshman representative, went on stage to give a speech.
Stephanie's speech was very well-written, full of allusions and fluent in rhythm, and Lancelot's speech was met with applause.
As the ceremony was about to end, the vice dean announced the date for the 536th freshman competition, which would be held precisely two weeks later.
Immediately, a chorus of wails erupted below.
The so-called freshman competition is no different from the entrance exam of ordinary universities; it's just a way to test students' progress during the two-month holiday.
By comparing students' scores in the freshman competition with those in the Joint Entrance Examination, and updating the results in real time, we can also encourage students to work hard and not become complacent just because they have entered the Holy Sword Academy.
Lancelot was certainly not worried about the freshman competition. For the past two months, he had hardly left his house and had been in seclusion, and in terms of the speed of his strength improvement, he was definitely not inferior to anyone.
After the conference, several school leaders met with outstanding students such as Lancelot and Rongside to inquire about their experiences since enrolling and to assure them of any needs they might have. Their attitude was kind and friendly.
Even in the most prestigious academy like the Holy Sword Academy, there is absolutely no such thing as equal treatment. Those with good talent receive better treatment, and those with strong strength have higher status. This is an unchanging law of the Transcendent world.
The opening ceremony was held in the morning, and there was nothing to do in the afternoon. After receiving his school uniform and department badge, Lancelot continued to train at home and used his spare time to learn about many details of the Holy Sword Academy.
For example, he learned about the resources at the exchange point, the types of training grounds, and details about paid courses. He also joined several chat groups containing guides from senior students on how to avoid pitfalls. Whether they are useful or not is another matter, but it's better to be prepared.
Time flies, and before you know it, another day has quietly slipped away.
On the third day of school, early in the morning, Lancelot stood in front of the mirror, tidying his clothes.
The uniforms of the Holy Sword Academy have a military style, mainly in red and black tones. They are simple, tough, grand, and iron-blooded. Wearing them makes one look particularly tall, upright, heroic, and masculine.
Because the school uniform is made of high-strength nanofiber, it has excellent elasticity and toughness, so Lancelot doesn't have to worry about the uniform bursting even when he transforms into his giant form.
On the chest of the school uniform, there is a gold badge with a very layered design. At the top is a swirling cloud, in the middle is a staircase leading straight to the sky, and below is Bottomless Abyss.
The badge symbolizes: only moving forward, defying fate and changing one's destiny.
This is undoubtedly an explanation of the core ideas of the Innovation School.
Only by disregarding one's own life and death can one seize the sliver of opportunity to change one's Fate.
Looking at his dashing reflection in the mirror, Lancelot smiled with satisfaction, then left the villa to prepare for his first formal lesson.
Ability Energy Level Enhancement Course.
Following the instructions on the school's official website, Lancelot rode the hover platform through the winding campus, finally arriving at a building that was over ten meters tall.
After scanning his face, the door opened automatically, and Lancelot entered.
The classroom was huge, easily over a thousand square meters. In the southeast corner were mechanical devices that looked like game pods, while in the northwest corner were neatly arranged healing pods. For Holy Sword, the expensive healing pods were just ordinary equipment.
The ground was covered with dark red metal, which was soft in texture, somewhat like a plastic running track, but extremely Sturdiness.
Lancelot curiously poked it with his finger, but didn't even get a white dot out, which surprised him slightly.
You should know that with that one poke, even a high-strength steel plate would have a huge hole.
"As expected of the Holy Sword, they're incredibly wealthy; even the classroom floors are made of materials costing this much," Lancelot muttered.
Many others reacted similarly to Lancelot, like curious children, Western Capital touch and look at everything in the classroom, and even testing its strength.
At this moment, quite a few people recognized Lancelot, and he once again naturally attracted a lot of attention.
However, Lancelot was already used to it and remained unfazed.
After the count was nearly complete, a Quebec People with a strong physique and a serious expression, dressed in a blue, tight-fitting combat suit, walked into the classroom.
With a powerful stride, they exuded an aura of dominance and strength, like Lion. The previously noisy classroom instantly fell silent, so quiet you could hear a pin drop, and all eyes turned to these middle-aged men.
The middle-aged man stood ramrod straight at the front of the line. After scanning the crowd, his gaze lingered on Lancelot for a moment before quickly shifting away. Then, in a loud voice, he said:
"Hello everyone, I am Lande Steiner, the first-year Ability Energy development instructor. You can call me Teacher Lande."
"From today onwards, I will be fully responsible for the Ability Energy development courses in this classroom. The class schedule is generally from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM, with normal weekend rest. If you want to attend extra classes, you will need to pay for the courses yourself..."
Mr. Lande was a decisive person. After briefly introducing the situation, he began the formal teaching.
"I believe you have all practiced the Alliance's Gene Training Method. This method was developed by generations of the Alliance's Ability Energy with the assistance of artificial intelligence, combined with some Ability Energy knowledge obtained from the Astral Realm. It is very suitable for the cultivation of humans in our Elven Plane..."
"However... high universality also means mediocrity. While the Gene Training Method is suitable for most people, it is precisely because it is designed to accommodate ordinary Ability Energy that it is not very friendly to geniuses like you."
"That's why our Holy Sword Academy specially gathered many Ability Energy and spent a full 13 years using Virtual Universe to develop this ' Holy Sword Gene Training Method '."
As Mr. Lande spoke, a hint of pride involuntarily crept into his eyes.
"Holy Sword Gene Training Method?" The students looked at each other, their eyes filled with doubt but also excitement. Just from the name, they knew that this Gene Training Method was more effective than the basic version.
After giving everyone some time to process the information, Professor Lande continued his story.
"The Holy Sword Gene Training Method has 60 levels; the training effect becomes more significant with each level increase."
"Especially when your Ability Energy development level is lower than the level of the ' Holy Sword Gene Training Method,' the development efficiency will increase dramatically..."
Below, Lancelot's eyes gleamed slightly. He keenly realized that the "Holy Sword Gene Training Method" actually had limited effect on enhancing the Ability Energy from the Sublimation School.
For those with Innovation School Ability Energy, it is considered a "divine skill manual".
Why?
There are many Innovation School Ability Energy.
Each Ability Energy requires upgrading the development level, which consumes a great deal of energy and time.
The Holy Sword Gene Training Method undoubtedly greatly improves this situation.
Imagine if you trained the Holy Sword Gene Training Method to level 30, and then used it to improve your Lv1 [Body of Steel] or [Electrified Cells], the efficiency would be many times greater than the basic Gene Training Method.
"I must master the Holy Sword Gene Training Method!" Lancelot thought to himself.
This thing is like a general outline of martial arts.
Learning this will make developing new Ability Energy much easier.
Although learning the "Holy Sword Gene Training Method" might take a lot of time, Lancelot was well aware of the principle that sharpening the axe before chopping wood was essential.
After introducing the "Holy Sword Gene Training Method," Teacher Lande looked around and said, "Now, follow me and do the first movement!"
After saying that, Teacher Lande suddenly changed his posture, landing on all four limbs on the ground, like a roaring jungle tiger standing proudly on a cliff, exuding an arrogant, domineering, and predatory aura.
Moreover, Mr. Lande's muscles were trembling with an extremely strange rhythm, his skin was rippling like water, his cheeks were visibly turning red, and his whole body was instantly flushed.
