Chapter 286 Class Assignment
"However, the preferential treatment given to geniuses on our Blue Star is exceptionally good. This kind of martial arts genius, who came from a barren province, managed to snatch a Northwest General Star from the top ten provinces of Blue Star. Even if he makes a mistake, even if he kills someone, the authorities will probably only give him a verbal reprimand and a minor punishment as a warning."
What exactly did Chen Lie do wrong to warrant a punishment order from the Martial Arts Association headquarters? He was even stripped of his title as the regional martial arts champion of three provinces, and instead of directly entering the super genius class, he didn't even get into the genius class?
The young instructor said, "Director, Chen Lie has achieved so much, how come he only has average physical attributes?"
Director Zhou said, "Didn't you notice?"
This special admission student named Chen Lie began to rise to prominence at the end of the year 7364 in the Galaxy Calendar, joining the elite class. It has been less than a year since then.
I don't know how Chen Lie obtained the Northwest General Star, because even the top martial arts champions of the top ten provinces on Blue Star cannot guarantee that they can obtain the Northwest General Star.
It seems that Chen Lie possesses some secret method specifically designed to subdue alien beasts.
However, to win the title of the top martial arts champion in the three provinces of Sichuan, one must at least possess the strength of the Bone Refining stage. I remember that the previous champion of the three provinces of Sichuan was a Bone Refining stage cultivator.
In less than a year, someone from an ordinary martial arts student has risen to become the top young talent in the three provinces of Sichuan. There's only one possibility for this: someone who has been accumulating knowledge and experience has suddenly achieved enlightenment!
"Enlightenment?" The three mentors were all taken aback.
"Yes, enlightenment!"
Everyone has probably heard of enlightenment. On our planet Earth, we probably can't find any clear examples of enlightenment, but there are quite a few examples of enlightenment outside of Earth.
A person who was originally mediocre in martial arts suddenly had an epiphany, and his martial arts skills improved by leaps and bounds in a very short time, far surpassing his peers.
This Chen Lie has clearly had a sudden enlightenment.
The young instructor asked, "According to convention, students with average physical attributes are all placed in the regular class. Director, do you think it would be an exception for Chen Lie and that he be placed in the key class?"
But if he's placed in the honors class, wouldn't someone with average physical attributes seem too out of place?
Director Zhou said, "We must make an exception!"
In a poor province like Sichuan, a province with a population of over 200 million, he became the top young person. Do you think that average physical attributes were important to him? Even with perfect physical attributes, he might not have achieved such success!
Physical talent is just one type of innate ability; there are many top-tier talents that cannot be measured by instruments.
Chen Lie has clearly achieved enlightenment, and his future martial arts will undoubtedly be unparalleled. As someone who has stood out from the rigorous selection process in a barren province, I dare say that he will surely make a name for himself at Starry Sky University.
"I simply don't have that authority; otherwise, I could have just sent him to the gifted program, saving him a month of preparation time."
"Director Zhou, then I'll just put Chen Lie into the honors class!"
"Well, let's put him in the honors class. When we hand him over, we should let the honors class tutor know so that he can give special consideration to this special student named Chen Lie."
Geniuses need to be nurtured and cultivated so that they can feel a sense of belonging to their home planet. I don't know what the Blue Star Martial Arts Association headquarters was thinking, actually ordering the punishment of a martial arts genius who had a high probability of becoming a pillar of Blue Star's Star University, without even worrying that he would harbor resentment.
"Okay, I understand!"
The young instructor nodded, returned to his work computer, and used it to directly assign Chen Lie to the honors class.
Before long, all the information for the specially admitted students was approved.
Director Zhou said, "Mentors, the approval is complete. The three of you should tally up how many students from Hunan and Guangdong provinces have perfect, top-tier, and superior root bones respectively among the special recruits this time."
After Director Zhou finished speaking, the three mentors discussed for a moment, and then said, "Director Zhou, among the 320 special students admitted from Hunan and Guangxi provinces this time, there is one person with perfect aptitude, 37 people with top-notch aptitude, 281 people with superior aptitude, and one person with medium aptitude, who is the transfer student from Sichuan province named Chen Lie."
The only specially admitted student whose physical constitution was tested to be perfect was also a transfer student from the province of Sudong.
Director Zhou pondered for a moment, then said, "Change Chen Lie's admission record from 'medium' to 'perfect'!"
"Why is that?" the young instructor asked, puzzled.
"Although our school administration office has the authority to view students' resumes, the school has regulations that strictly prohibit the disclosure of student information."
I thought about it and realized that simply informing the tutor of the honors class might not be enough. So, we'll directly change Chen Lie's average physical attributes to perfect ones. That way, the tutor of the honors class will naturally take it to heart without us having to say anything.
"
"Changing student records isn't in accordance with regulations, is it?" The young tutor hesitated.
"It's alright, just go ahead and do it!" Director Zhou waved his hand.
Meanwhile, Chen Lie, Huang Yuande, and Chen Huafeng went to the public restaurant next to the school affairs office for a meal.
At the dinner table, Huang Yuande complained, "The food at Blue Star University's cafeteria isn't very good either. It's not even as good as the cafeteria at the Hunan-Guangdong Province Genius Training Camp!"
Chen Huafeng said, "This is a public cafeteria, not a student cafeteria, so the food is already quite good."
After the class assignments are completed, we can eat at the student cafeteria on campus. The cafeteria has all kinds of high-end gifts, thousand-year-old elixirs, and second-tier martial arts treasures.
"Speaking of class assignments, I have a question."
The admissions officer said that the allocation rate for the top 20 provinces on Blue Star to the key classes is 65% to 80%, and that leaves 35% to 20% to be assigned to regular classes. I'm afraid that out of the more than 300 special admissions students, about 100 will be assigned to regular classes. I wonder if I will be one of them.” Huang Yuande was somewhat worried.
"You listened to the admissions office advisor's nonsense? He said the allocation rate for the top classes is 65% to 80%, but it's actually 80%."
"I estimate that only 60 or 70 out of 300 people will be assigned to the regular classes. With nearly 2,000 kilocalories of qi and blood, and strength values more than four times higher, you'd be considered top-tier even in a genius training camp. You definitely won't be in the regular classes," Chen Huafeng said.
-
"That's true, but who can guarantee anything before the class assignments are announced?" Huang Yuande said.
"Look at me and this guy, who among us is this worried and anxious? You're the only one making a fuss!"
"Damn it, you're at the peak of Qi and Blood, and you've also been tested for top-tier talent. You're definitely going to be in the honors class, so what are you worried about? Chen Lie was tested for average talent, and his strength isn't particularly strong either. He'll be assigned to the regular class one hundred percent, so of course he doesn't need to worry either. But how can someone like me, who's neither here nor there, not worry?" Huang Yuande said.
Chen Lie said, "Since you're worried, then hurry up and eat. After you finish eating, go to the school administration office and wait for news."
"Yes, hurry up and eat. After you finish, wait for news outside the school administration office," Chen Huafeng added.
Not long after, Chen Lie, Huang Yuande, and Chen Huafeng finished their meal and left the restaurant, heading to the school administration office next door.
Outside the school administration office, a large group of students admitted through the special admissions program from Hunan and Guangdong provinces were already waiting.
Soon, it was two o'clock in the afternoon.
Wang Chuanfeng, an admissions officer, and a tutor from the administration office appeared in the square outside the administration office.
"Students, the class assignment results are in. Of the 320 specially admitted students from Hunan and Guangxi provinces this year, 78 have been assigned to regular classes and 242 have been assigned to key classes."
"Next, four holographic projection screens will appear in the Academic Affairs Office, displaying the names of students in regular classes and honors classes. Everyone can check whether they are in an honors class or a regular class from the screens," said the academic affairs office tutor next to Wang Chuanfeng.
As soon as he finished speaking, four light screens instantly appeared around the square outside the Academic Affairs Office.
There are two rows of information subtitles on the screen: "List of students in key classes" and "List of students in regular classes".
More than 300 specially admitted students instantly rushed to the surrounding light screens to find their names.
"The honors class! My Qi and Blood value is only a little over 1300 calories, and I've actually been placed in the honors class!"
One of the specially admitted students saw his information on the screen and immediately shouted out excitedly.
"What the hell? How were they assigned here? My health is 1500 calories, and while my strength is less than 3.5 times the normal level, it shouldn't put me in the bottom 100 of all the special admissions students. Why was I put in the regular class?"
"Yeah, several students who are weaker than me got into the honors class, so why did I get put in the regular class?"
When the class assignment results were announced, several specially admitted students protested indignantly.
At this moment, the instructors from the school administration office stepped forward and explained: "Students, the class assignments were carefully reviewed by the instructors from the school administration office. The level of Qi and Blood is not the main criterion for evaluation."
The class division is based on physical constitution and strength. Strength is obvious, but even among those with the same superior physical constitution, there are significant differences.
Of course, the school administration's assessment may have some errors, but these errors must be extremely small.
Blue Star University has a promotion mechanism for students in regular classes. If you are truly capable, you can apply for a promotion exam one month after class placement. If you pass the exam, you can still become a student in the honors class.
After the academic affairs office advisor finished speaking, the indignant special admission student instantly fell silent.
At that moment, Huang Yuande also found his name on the light screen.
"Phew, I'm relieved now, I've been placed in the honors class!"
Seeing his name displayed below the keynote, Huang Yuande breathed a sigh of relief, and his anxiety instantly vanished.
At this moment, Wang Chuanfeng from the admissions office said, "All of you who have been assigned to the regular classes, please come with me. I will take you to see your advisors!"
Soon after, the 78 specially admitted students who had been assigned to regular classes gathered together and reluctantly followed Wang Chuanfeng out of the school administration office.
Huang Yuande glanced at Chen Lie beside him and said, "Chen Lie, why aren't you going with them?"
"Why should I go with them?" Chen Lie asked.
"Wait, didn't that instructor just say that everyone in the regular classes should go with him?"
"He's talking about the regular class. Am I in the regular class?" Chen Lie retorted.
"You're not in a regular class?"
Huang Yuande glanced at the screen again and was shocked to find that the first name under the honors class was Chen Lie.
"What?! You, with only average physical attributes, actually got assigned to the honors class?"
Huang Yuande was shocked.
At this moment, many surprised gazes were cast upon Chen Lie.
Even so many people with superior physical attributes were assigned to the regular class, while someone with average physical attributes was assigned to the honors class?
"This transfer student has connections at Blue Star University!"
Some of the specially admitted students were secretly muttering to themselves.
"No wonder this guy is so fearless. He has such strong connections. He comes from a remote province, has average physical attributes, and his abilities are probably not that great, yet he still managed to be assigned to the top class."
Chi Naixue glanced at Chen Lie in surprise. Like the other special admissions students, she guessed that Chen Lie had connections with Blue Star University.
Logically speaking, his false information should have been investigated. How could someone with average physical constitution become a Qi and Blood Peak expert with 3,000 calories of Qi and Blood and five times the strength?
The fact that the Blue Star University administration ignored this illogical situation and even assigned him to the honors class suggests that someone was suppressing the matter.
Chi Nayuki's father is a member of the Hunan-Guangdong Provincial Assembly, a powerful vice-provincial level official, but he has no influence over Blue Star University.
Compared to this, just how powerful must Chen Lie's background be?
"Students, next, I will assist you in class assignments. Among the key classes of Blue Star University, there are a total of 20 classes led by master mentors of the extreme realm."
Currently, the 14 elite classes led by Supreme Masters are full. I will now lead you to the 15th elite class, where the Supreme Master instructors will select from among you.
Because the selection criteria for the Grandmaster Mentors are quite strict, they generally only select 50 students from the special admissions in each province. Whether you can be selected by the mentors of the 15th elite class depends on yourselves.
If you're not selected, you'll be randomly assigned to an elite class led by a regular master.
The advisors from the school administration office gave a presentation to the specially admitted students.
"Students, please follow me. I'll take you to see the tutor of Class 15, the top-tier class, Pang Xiuming."
After the professor from the school administration finished speaking, he walked at the front, leading the group of specially admitted students toward the campus.
Blue Star University has a very large campus. It took more than half an hour to walk from the administration office to enter the campus.
Soon, the group arrived at a teaching building marked with the words "Class 15 (Key Class)".
When we arrived at the teaching building, the advisor from the school administration office made a call.
A short while later, a young man in his thirties came out of the teaching building.
"Professor Pang, I've brought you another student."
"Professor Sun," the young man greeted him, then glanced at the group of specially admitted students behind him and asked, "Which province are these specially admitted students from?"
"They are all specially admitted students from Hunan and Guangdong provinces," the instructor from the school administration office replied.
"Xiangguang Province? It seems to be the 12th province on Earth. So how many of these specially recruited students have perfect aptitude?" the young man asked.
