"Eh? Isn"t that Duan Li?" A man said when he saw Duan Li and the little Fenrir entered the school grounds."Huh? That champion? Wow! It"s really him!"
"d.a.m.n! He is already famous when he exterminated thousands of monsters during the monster stampede before, and now he is a champion that could rival even a Nascent Soul realm expert!"

"Not only that, I heard that there was a lot of people saying that he is one of those legendary Child of Tian! Ah! I want to be like him!"
Hearing all these people talking about him, Duan Li couldn"t help but to become a little bit embarra.s.sed as he scratched the back of his head awkwardly, but at the same time, he felt a sense of achievement and pride in himself as well!
However, just as he was about to wave to his "fans", a woman suddenly screamed excitedly!
"Guys look! It"s little wolf!"
"Little Dae? Where?"
Kyaaa!!
A whole flock of excited women soon crowded around Duan Li before they swiftly took Daelius away, leaving Duan Li with a disheveled appearance as if he had just been trampled over!
"Little Dae?" his lips twitched. He never expected that Daelius would be much more famous than him to the extent of being given such a cute nickname!
It was just a few moments ago that he was standing at the center of the limelight before it was s.n.a.t.c.hed right in front of him!
Hais!
Why can"t you learn how to be low profile like me?
"Should I summon Dilong and Zhulong to accompany me now?" Duan Li thought for a moment before he threw the idea away.
People will think that I am crazy talking to an empty air...
With an exasperated sigh, Duan Li entered the main building.
...
His first cla.s.s for today was the Appraiser cla.s.s. This was a cla.s.s that involves identifying items and artifacts.
Since he was a junior just like the rest of the students here, the objects that the teacher gave to them to practice their skills was but simple stuff.
The items laid in front of them was a bunch of artifact stones with each harnessing unique attributes to increase a cultivator"s battle prowess!
"In order to understand which stone could give which attributes, one must..."
Listening to the teacher talking on and on about method of identifying stones almost slapped Duan Li right into the realm of the dreams!
At this moment, he could not be more grateful to have such an overpowered identifying ability;
"Thankfully, I have the Tetra Soul Sense that could identify any objects by a mere glance.."
After the cla.s.s ended, Duan Li then went into the Herbalogist cla.s.s. The situation was roughly the same for him and he almost slept throughout the entire course.
Next, he attended the Master Teaching cla.s.s and almost choked on himself!
"What the heck is this? Why is everyone practicing to convince others to buy their Quill?!" he thought to himself as he widened his eyes in disbelief.
(A.N: This is a common question to be asked during interview in the marketing department of a company - "Sell me this pen")
Could they have gone bonkers?
Shouldn"t they convince others on how to practice and correct the flaws in one"s cultivation instead?
"Oh wait, I forgot... Everyone here is at the junior level and they are still learning everything from the beginning..."
Hais!
Duan Li then went on to the Combat Cla.s.s next in the afternoon. He saw how the others were practicing some basic stances of martial arts on the side, while multiple teachers lead another separate groups and demonstrated how spiritual Qi could be infused to the move sets of those martial arts stances to make them more powerful!
At the end of the lesson, Duan Li finally have a lifeless look on his face. Feeling helpless, he went to the Princ.i.p.al"s office.
Knock! Knock!
...
"What"s wrong with you now?" the Princ.i.p.al asked after he saw the look on Duan Li"s face.
It was just like the face of someone that was drained of their entire energy, looking pale and frail; thus the Princ.i.p.al"s initial thoughts were that Duan Li had contracted Diarrhea!
"I... I don"t think that I can continue learning the entire Junior course..." Duan Li explained honestly, and he told the Princ.i.p.al that each cla.s.s was too basic for him.
Hearing this, the Princ.i.p.al furrowed his brows in displeasure. "Are you thinking of skipping the entire course? While you may be the Imperial Overseer, in this Academy, I am the Princ.i.p.al! I will not entertain a request that allows you to not attend the cla.s.ses at all!"
The Princ.i.p.al then went on to say that, such a thing would cause a student"s status to become a "dropout", which essentially meant that they will be kicked out from the Academy; stripped of their t.i.tles and properties!
"Huh? No, what I meant to say is that, can I jump straight to the Senior course?" Duan Li said to prevent the Princ.i.p.al from misunderstanding his intentions any further.
"Oh? You want to become an express student?" the Princ.i.p.al stroked his beard gently as he found this intriguing.
There were already several outstanding students that joined the Express course, and these students was groomed by the Royal"s Scholarship instead of the limited budget of the academy!
After pondering upon the matter carefully, the Princ.i.p.al finally replied, "There are procedures for you to apply and become an Express student, and you will have unlimited resources at your disposal to further your cultivation and martial arts. Not that money is a problem for you though, just that, there are one condition that you need to fulfill!"
Hearing this, Duan Li was ecstatic and asked straight away, "What is that one condition?"
"The condition is that, you will have to progressively take examinations for each of your minor occupations! To become an Express student, you need to reach a minimum of 5 stars for all of your minor occupation! Next, you must not have a score lower than 95 where the maximum is 100 marks for each examination!" the Princ.i.p.al replied with a solemn look.
Hearing this revelation, Duan Li was surprised. "Such a strict requirement! Are there even anyone that pa.s.sed such a test?"
"Naturally!" the Princ.i.p.al replied with a nod.
He then explained that, there were originally only 3 slots opened for the Express course; one for each level of student - Junior, Soph.o.m.ore and Senior!
All three slots was already taken, but the Princ.i.p.al could make special exceptions for Duan Li in view of his status as the Imperial Overseer!
In addition, the main perks of the Express student course was that a student can enter any lecture cla.s.s they want!
Basically, even if Duan Li were to attend a lecture cla.s.s of a 7 Star rank-only, which was the current highest cla.s.s a student can attend in the Jixue Knights Academy, he could do so!
Thus, after careful consideration, Duan Li finally decided with a confident nod.
"I shall take the examination to become an Express student!"
