MTLNOVEL Chapter 134: The Master's Choice
"Finally, school is starting."
Jiang Yuan stretched and looked at the time before heading straight out.
He had been making cards at home almost every day for the past few days.
But there were still many military orders left uncompleted.
Making cards at home was ultimately no match for the speed of making them at the military facility with scene cards to restore spiritual power.
There was no helping it; Jiang Yuan had nothing else to do these days.
The assessment for new students had ended, and the summoning card had been crafted.
He hadn't decided on the material for the weapons yet.
So all he could do was to make cards while pondering how to craft a weapon.
And although the Summoning Card Shi Ji Goddess was successfully made, one could tell from her skills that the Shi Ji Goddess gets gradually stronger.
The same is true for both [Undead Enslavement] and [Undead Magic].
[Undead Enslavement] requires combat against the Undead Clan.
[Undead Magic] requires learning and then creating Skill Card.
Originally, Jiang Yuan planned to have Shi Ji Goddess study in the library first and then create some Skill Cards.
Then use the Skill Cards to challenge the Dream Tower.
It would be even better if there are opponents from the Undead Clan in Dream Tower; succeed in the challenge and then use [Undead Enslavement].
In this way, Shi Ji Goddess would grow increasingly stronger.
But Jiang Yuan was stuck on the first step.
The library was only accessible after the official start of the school term.
Jiang Yuan had no choice but to focus on card making and wait for school to start.
When school starts, one can get school credits and rewards from the new student assessment.
Using credits to purchase a few undead clan skill cards first.
Then go to the Undead Clan's Grotto Heaven and enslave a group of the Undead Clan.
Just so happens to complete the mission issued by Tong Yuchang.
"Let's go."
When Jiang Yuan was leaving, he saw Mu Qianshan, who had also just stepped out.
After they greeted each other, they walked together towards the Newcomer Plaza.
"How come you're like a homebody, never stepping foot outside?"
"I've been making cards, haven't finished the military card quota yet."
Jiang Yuan helplessly shrugged his shoulders, leaving Mu Qianshan with not much more to say.
Alright, that made sense.
"Speaking of making cards, I still don't know what card you made that day, you wouldn't even show me."
"You'll see it when we enter the Grotto Heaven."
Jiang Yuan smiled, and as they talked, they quickly arrived at the Newcomer Plaza.
Unlike the day they came, today the Newcomer Plaza was filled with people.
Not just freshmen but also various upperclassmen here to watch the excitement.
"Look, she's beautiful."
Mu Qianshan had just entered and immediately noticed a gorgeous older sister, his eyes instantly lit up.
Mu Qianshan's tastes lean more towards older sisters.
So he was very fond of the provocatively curvy woman in front of him.
"I wonder if she's a first-year or an upperclassman?"
At Zhongyuan Academy, or rather, at the top four academies, the division of grades is not based on the time of admission.
After all, some students join in the middle of their studies.
This is a common occurrence.
Just like Tong Yuchang, who joined partway through, at most a few months earlier than Jiang Yuan and the others.
Here, grades are divided based on strength.
For example, first realm Xingji are freshmen.
Second realm Xuanxiao are sophomores.
And so on, up to a total of six grades.
As long as you reach the sixth realm, you can basically graduate.
Likewise, no matter what realm you are when you enroll, you need to wait a month to move up a grade.
It's the same for every grade.
Even if you were already at the fourth realm when you entered, you still need four months to officially become a fourth-year student.
That's why the second-year resources lean towards the freshmen for a month.
"Speaking of which, there are quite a few beautiful girls."
Mu Qianshan, excited by the crowd at the plaza, could no longer hide his thrill.
"Be serious, it's about to start."
Jiang Yuan gave Mu Qianshan a tug, then they saw Bu Qiuyao and Jiang Lingyun, who were excitedly waving at them.
"Let's go, we'll join them."
Jiang Yuan contemplated briefly before walking towards Bu Qiuyao and Jiang Lingyun.
After all, they came from the same place.
Haven't you seen Yang Xiaodong and Yang Xie over there, too?
As Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan walked over, Jiang Yuan also saw two acquaintances.
Amplification Card Master Cao Guoqing and Shield Card Master Gu Guai.
"How come I haven't seen you these past few days, wanted to add you as a contact but couldn't find you."
Cao Guoqing's eyes lit up upon seeing Jiang Yuan, and he asked.
"I've been at home these days, haven't really gone out."
Jiang Yuan politely smiled and then stood beside Yang Xie.
Looking around, there were indeed a few familiar faces.
Even though Jiang Yuan was somewhat face-blind, having already forgotten many people that he and Nezha had saved, there was still a sense of familiarity.
New students nearby also looked at Jiang Yuan with grateful eyes.
Not just because some of them had been rescued by Nezha.
More importantly, it was the resource reallocation Jiang Yuan acquired for them by defeating second-year students.
These past two days they weren't inactive, and it was easy for them to find out about Jiang Yuan's achievements.
Jiang Yuan, with Nezha in the new student assessment, fought fiercely, wiping out a majority of the second-year students, which allowed them to successfully obtain these resource allocations.
"Is that Jiang Yuan? He doesn't look anything special."
"It's not him that's special; it's the cards in his hand," Tong Yuchang said lightly.
