Chapter 136 - Top Four Schools
After returning to his dormitory and lying on his bed, Vincent heaved a sigh of relief.
Although he had managed to escape unscathed this time, it was a reminder that he needed to be more cautious in the future.
This time, his ident.i.ty had been exposed out of nowhere, causing people to suspect him. If he did not pay attention in the future, he might not be as lucky.
He soon felt sleepy after thinking about the future. By the time he opened his eyes again, it was already noon the following day.
His nerves were strained the day before, which had consumed a lot of his mental energy.
In the next three days, Vincent was sought after by the entire Blizzard School. There was no doubt about Vincent"s strength. After the school confirmed Vincent"s ident.i.ty as a beast, they were even more generous in praising Vincent. This caused Vincent to become famous in Blizzard City.
On one particular day, Vincent received a notice to head to the princ.i.p.al"s office.
The princ.i.p.al of Blizzard School was called Steve. Vincent only knew his name as Steve. He heard it from others during the examination.
Steve was a very mysterious person. Although he was the princ.i.p.al of Blizzard School, no one knew what he looked like. They did not know him at all.
When Vincent arrived at the princ.i.p.al"s office, Steve said to Vincent with a smile, "Have you thought about which school that you want to go to?"
Vincent was stunned when he heard that. Was he not supposed to be a student escort? Why did he still have a choice?
Although he knew a lot about Beast World, he did not know much about the specific details.
Steve looked at Vincent and explained, "Although our Blizzard School is only a level three school, we have the qualifications to escort students to the top schools."
"In our Beast World, we have the top four schools. They are Strength School, Divine Incantations School, War School, and Internal Affairs School."
After Steve explained, Vincent had a certain understanding of the top four schools.
The Beast World had two cultivation systems. They were known as strength and divine incantations, and the difference between the two of them was huge.
The purpose of the strength system was to temper and strengthen one"s body. One would have a natural advantage whether it was offense or defense. Of course, in the Beast World, most people were cultivating strength.
Divine incantations focused on mental cultivation. Individuals could communicate with the elements in the world to form an attack and defense method. Their overall combat strength was extremely strong, and it was not something that strength cultivators could compare to.
Similarly, although divine incantations cultivators were very strong, they had a huge innate limit. Their innate mental strength had to be very high.
The majority of the Beast Race"s mental strength was not high. This resulted in very few divine incantations cultivators. It was already considered good to have 50,000 cultivators in Beast World.
50,000 cultivators of the divine incantations may sound like a lot, but one had to know that the Beast World was vast and boundless. Its population was as high as 30 billion. In other words, there was only one divine incantations cultivator every 600,000 people. From this, one could observe how difficult it was for cultivators of the divine incantations to appear.
The Strength School and the Divine Incantations School were the schools that taught these two aspects. Every year, they train a large number of Beast Race experts.
The War School was a school that was specially set up for war. Its strength and divine incantations advanced at the same time. In recent years, the scale of the border wars in Beast World had been increasing. In order to fill the battlefield, the War School had paid a huge price. The number of years for the students to graduate was reducing.
Up until the present, the War School had gone from being the top amongst the four top schools to the bottom. It even had the faint intention of dropping out of the top schools.
As for the Internal Affairs School, they did not cultivate talents in combat. Instead, they paid more attention to life. Everything related to life was taught by the Internal Affairs School. This included lessons on how to become a qualified manager.
Vincent thought for a moment. Amongst the top four academies, the things taught by War School were more comprehensive and were the most suitable for him.
At the same time, War School was also the most dangerous compared to the other three schools. After all, this school was specially set up for war.
"Tomorrow will be the day you leave our school. Although you have only been in our Blizzard School for a short time, as the princ.i.p.al, I should still give you some help," said Steve.
He then took out a black box. The box looked very simple. There was a thumb-sized golden lock on it.
He took out the key and opened the lock. Inside was an S-Cla.s.s fire elemental combat skill.
"This is "Blazing Inferno". I brought it back from the Border War many years ago. I was unable to cultivate it, and I couldn"t find a suitable person to cultivate it. I kept it because it was an S-Cla.s.s combat skill."
"Since you can cultivate fire elemental battle techniques, then I"ll give it to you," said Steve.
Vincent looked at the Blazing Inferno and was a little surprised. It was an S-Cla.s.s combat skill. How heroic.
Although the levels in Beast World were much higher than Earth"s, S-Cla.s.s combat skills were still very precious existences.
Steve took out the combat skill and gave it to him. The intention of befriending him was self-evident.
Vincent did not stand on ceremony. An S-Cla.s.s combat skill was such a precious thing. Who would despise it?
"Thank you, Princ.i.p.al Steve," said Vincent.
Vincent smiled and tucked it into his pocket. Regardless of how much this combat skill could actually help him, at least in battle, Vincent had gained another extraordinary ability.
"Have you thought about which school that you want to go to?" asked Steve.
After he saw Vincent put away Blazing Inferno, Steve"s tone sounded friendlier.
"Let"s go to War School," said Vincent with certainty.
Steve was obviously stunned after hearing Vincent"s choice.
He had never expected Vincent to choose such a school that would risk him going to the battlefield at any time.
Although he was very puzzled, Steve did not stop Vincent. Instead, he took some time to think about it. After a while, he nodded.
"War School is indeed the most suitable school for you. Whether it is in the use of strength and divine spells, or in the use of combat skills, it will be of great help to you," said Steve.
Steve agreed with Vincent"s choice.
He then out a blood-red card and handed it over to Vincent.
In the center of the card was a pale skull. There were two words written powerfully on it under the skull.
War School!
Obviously, this was a guarantee card for War School. It recorded the location and information of War School.
After Steve gave Vincent a lot of instructions, Vincent left the princ.i.p.al"s office.
When he opened the door, he saw the second-ranked panther-headed man. Vincent remembered that his name was Kerry.
Kerry looked at Vincent with anger and fear in his eyes. In the Obsidian Dimensional World, Vincent had made a lot of people suffer, and Kerry was one of them.
Vincent did not pay attention to Kerry and walked towards the dormitory.
Kerry looked at Vincent"s back and took a deep breath. He forced himself to calm down and walked into the princ.i.p.al"s office.
Vincent returned to the dormitory and took out Blazing Inferno. He immediately completed his cultivation after the system inspected it.
The next day, before dawn, Vincent left Blizzard School and headed towards War School.
He did not notice that a pair of eyes in the princ.i.p.al"s office was watching him leave.
