Chapter 112: Trip to Glory Capital
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“What’s even more embarrassing is that you’re all reputable professors and scholars in the world of soul pet research. You’ve all won countless awards and honors. What you didn’t manage to resolve was settled by a student?”
“That’s not the most embarrassing thing! The most embarrassing thing is that they’ve already settled it, but you still can’t understand anything!”
“Really, if word gets out, everyone can dig a hole and hide in it.”
The woman was extremely angry.
There was no mercy in her words.
Many professors, scholars, and researchers below the stage did not dare to look up.
“This, Director He, it’s not that we can’t tell… That Magnetic Sword is really strange… In battle, it could even absorb the intense electric shock of the Lightning Roaring Tiger… Clearly, it underwent some special mutation… Unless we can bring it back and study it carefully…”
Professor Tang bit the bullet and said, “It’s hard to analyze the battle data accurately.”
“You want to bring it back for research? Do you really have no shame anymore?” The woman sneered, “Giving away a soul pet and bringing it back for research?”
Professor Tang quickly said, “We can invite him to come to our base as a guest… we can also study him and develop a scientific plan for training soul pets for him. We can reward him…”
“Enough!” The woman laughed from anger, “You still want to formulate a scientific plan to train his soul pets? If I were that student, I would spit at you! You couldn’t even handle a soul pet. After he succeeded in training it, you still have the nerve to formulate a scientific plan for them?”
“Why don’t you formulate a scientific plan to save your own reputation?”
“I suggest immediate plastic surgery. Professor Tang, what do you think of this plan?”
Many professors could not help but want to laugh, but they did not dare to.
Professor Tang was extremely embarrassed…
“Then let’s invite him over and shamelessly ask him about the method to train it?” A professor probed, “Those who accomplish great feats are treated as teachers. We’re professors, so our knowledge reserve is definitely stronger than students. However, soul pet training is a profound subject. Even students have their own unique insights and experiences.”
“Moreover, the students will not be limited by our cognitive framework, and their thoughts are even more unconstrained. Anything is possible.”
“Soul pet training doesn’t rely entirely on knowledge. There are also the life bonds between people and soul pets, as well as the effects of their martial souls, and so on.”
“Look, Professor Tang, look at how enlightened Professor Bai is.” The woman immediately smiled, “Did you hear that? Do you really think you’re omniscient just because you’re a professor? There’s always someone better!”
“Only a newborn child doesn’t know this logic. Good fellow, in a way, you’re young again.”
Professor Tang immediately nodded.
At this moment, an assistant in a white research coat walked over and muttered in front of the woman.
“Zhao He? Why is he looking for me?”
The woman pondered for a few seconds and said to the professors, “Continue watching until you learn something!”
With that, the woman walked to the side and connected the communication device.
“It’s me. What’s up?”
“Hmm? You’re a martial soul researcher, why are you concerned about this?”
“You’re so well-informed… You even know that I’m going to the headquarters of the war zone to discuss the plan to deal with the Sky God Dragon.”
“A guess? You really know how to guess. The result of the discussion… Heh, this is top secret information. Are you sure you want to know?”
“Hmm… What’s the student’s name?”
“Wang Che… wait, say the name again. Wang Che…”
The woman had a strange expression.
She walked back to the platform and asked, “Professor Tang, what’s the name of the student who tamed the red Magnetic Sword?”
“His name is Wang Che. He’s from Skyheart City. I heard from my old friend that he’s a genius at training soul pets.”
“A genius at training soul pets…”
The woman found it quite interesting and could not help but mutter, “Now, he’s even a genius with a martial soul above the Heavenly Fate grade… Did the West Peak Continent really produce a genius this year?”
“From what Zhao He said… it’s related to the military and the previous Ghost Disciples… Wang Batian… Good fellow, he’s a young hero… No wonder Zhao He asked me about the Sky God Dragon… This is a rare gem…”
“In that case, that stubborn donkey Li Yanming made a military pledge… most likely because of this student…”
“Interesting… Very interesting…”
“Speaking of which, the Aviation Cup is about to begin this year… I want to see how talented you are…”
——
Aviation Cup.
For these young students, it was the symbol of taking flight.
It was the only official competition held by the West Peak Continent for high school graduates.
It was also a true competition with a certain amount of influence.
Other than the West Peak Continent, the other continents would hold similar competitions.
It was different from the Enlightenment Cup which was a simple soul pet fight.
The Aviation Cup was a beginner-level comprehensive competition.
“In formal terms, a beginner-level comprehensive battle is a semi-professional competition. The rewards and difficulty are far from what the Enlightenment Cup can compare to.”
Wang Che was currently on a maglev train heading to the West Peak Continent’s city.
The carriages were filled with Year Three graduates of Skyheart City, heading to Glory City together.
Teacher Zheng was explaining the Aviation Cup to many students.
“What do you mean, Teacher?”
“In a comprehensive battle, it tests the ability to use the power of a martial soul to have a certain effect on soul pets.” Teacher Zheng said, “There is an obvious difference when fighting against traditional soul pets.”
“Traditional soul pet battles are done by Contract Soul Masters to order their soul pets to fight. They are not allowed to use the power of their martial souls.”
“As for initial stage comprehensive battles, they are battles where Contract Soul Masters can use the power of their martial souls. Middle stage comprehensive battles involve both Contract Soul Masters and soul pets in battle together. Higher stage comprehensive battles are battles between true professional Contract Soul Masters. You don’t need to know that right now.”
“Is there a team competition, Teacher? I want to be in the same group as Wang Che and let him carry me!”
“Not at this stage. There will only be a group match after entering a university. The precondition is that you and Wang Che can enter the same university.”
“How is that possible… He’s about to get full marks for the comprehensive test after graduation. To him, the top colleges in the entire war zone are just choices that can be picked easily. He can choose whatever he wants.”
Many students laughed.
“Xu Haifeng, watch your mouth!” Teacher Zheng glared at Xu Haifeng.
Xu Haifeng smiled awkwardly.
Wang Che, who was sitting at the side, smiled and said, “I’ve indeed received calls from different colleges every day for the past few days.”
He was telling the truth.
The results of the comprehensive test were naturally extremely important.
The basic subjects were fine, but the soul pet subjects and martial soul subjects were especially important.
Wang Che scored full marks for both.
Especially the perfect score for the martial soul subject which was unprecedented.
Many university institutions were very sensitive.
They immediately smelled the aura of a genius.
The next day, Wang Che received an invitation from a top university in a certain continent.
The conditions offered were ridiculously generous.
In the next few days, Father Wang and Mother Wang were tired of answering the phone.
Wang Che said, “Not yet.”
There was no hurry.
“Old Wang, you’re very ordinary.” Xu Haifeng could not help but say, “However, Goddess Lin Xi has more than 700 points. I estimate that you and her are the only two who can casually choose your own universities.”
“By the way, Lin Xi, have you chosen?”
“No.” Lin Xi, who was sitting behind, quietly looked at the passing scenery.
The maglev track between the two cities was built in the cleared wilderness, and it was still a certain height from the ground.
The scenery was beautiful as the mountains circled around.
Occasionally, they could hear the cries of wild soul pets.
It was pleasing to the eye.
“Look, they’re not like us.” Xu Haifeng couldn’t help but sigh.
Everyone teased.
Teacher Zheng continued to explain the rules of the Aviation Cup to the students.
The rules of the Aviation Cup were not complicated, but there were many participants.
It included all the third-year graduates in the West Peak Continent’s 33 cities.
Therefore, it would take half a month to complete.
“The competition rules for this year’s Aviation Cup are the same as last year… It is a points gathering competition with tens of thousands of student participants. There will be two fights a day. The points for winning will be +3, and the points for losing is -6. When your total points are negative, you will be eliminated. Initially, everyone will have zero points.”
“Once you get more than 30 points, you’ll advance to the next round. At 60 points, you’ll advance to the following round.”
“This will repeat until the end.”
The rules were simple.
Although there were many people, they could only afford to lose one match after winning two. The competition was even more intense than the Enlightenment Cup.
They had to keep winning.
As long as they lost one match, they would have to win at least two consecutive battles to stabilize their position.
The further it went, the higher the points required, the more intense the competition.
Every 30 points was a round, and every round had an elimination.
If they wanted to advance to the next round, they had to win at least ten matches in a row and not lose a single one.
Many students were discussing.
They felt that they had a high chance of completing one or two rounds.
At this moment, a violent tremor suddenly came from the floating train.
Then it quickly stopped.
“Dear passengers, the train has encountered an emergency accident and a wild soul beast horde. It needs to stop for three minutes. It will begin again in three minutes. Please do not panic.” A crisp announcement sounded.
The students naturally did not panic.
In the wilderness, it was normal to encounter wild soul beasts.
It was common for maglev trains to be delayed, especially the intercity trains.
The maglev train was protected by the accompanying city guards, so its safety was guaranteed.
As expected, three minutes later, the maglev train started again.
Wang Che looked into the distance and his eyes flickered.
About ten minutes later.
“Look, we’re almost at Glory Capital!” A student shouted.
He looked out the window and saw a majestic city standing in the distance.
Looking down from this terrain, the scene was very spectacular.
“Glory Capital, Glory City.”
Wang Che looked over.
At this moment, the train suddenly slowed down.
A stewardess walked into the carriage and smiled at the students.
“Students, you’re all third-year students from Skyheart City, right? You’re all heading to Glory Capital to participate in the Aviation Cup?”
This maglev train was filled with Skyheart City’s students.
Many students were curious.
The stewardess said, “I’m the conductor of this train.. I have good news to announce to you.”
