321: Chapter 301: Lessons 321: Chapter 301: Lessons Sitting in the classroom, Lu Ping’an felt very complex.
“…..I never thought that I would have a day of going to school.”
In the spacious classroom, there were only about thirty people.
All the members of the Ancient City University’s special profession Logistics Department 9801 class were present.
Lu Ping’an originally thought that he had missed the course, but he did not expect that he had not skipped a single class…
The entire morning was just the opening ceremony and leadership speeches.
The only troublesome thing was that he had skipped the self-introduction.
Of course, he himself didn’t care at all.
The class director seemed to have the surname Li, and Lu Ping’an didn’t know the exact name since he missed the self-introduction.
Now, this middle-aged man was introducing the freshman courses.
The three major categories of special professions at Ancient City University are the Prevocational School, General Curriculum, and Logistics Department (Special Enrollment Students are listed separately).
The courses are completely different for each, as their basic conditions and development goals are different.
If students in the preparatory class successfully “awaken”, they will spend the first year on basic training and then follow the general curriculum.
However, the progress will be slower by one or two years or even longer, and graduating a little later is quite normal.
The general curriculum, despite being called “general”, is actually aimed at cultivating warriors…ordinary professionals are ordinary warriors.
Combat power is their first requirement, and all the courses are aimed at fighting and survival on the battlefield.
“The Logistics Department, as the name suggests, covers everything other than combat, but obviously, there are limits to a person’s time and energy.
Commander, Magic Potion, Chef, Craftsman, Intelligence, Medical and other professions can consume a person’s entire life.
So, in the end, choices must be made, but before focusing on mastery, we can become well-rounded in logistics…”
The teacher introduced the first-year courses, which were quite straightforward “general subjects.”
That is to simply learn the basics of dozens of common logistics subjects.
The exam passing threshold is not high, and only an entry-level understanding is required.
“General logistics knowledge is our main course, and it will last until the second half of the sophomore year because by then, your path to mastery should be very clear.
But before that, be good at multitasking.”
In general, this is equivalent to being the only logistics person in a small combat team.
Under any circumstances, you should be able to help solve small survival and logistical issues.
When necessary, you can do some electrical repairs, cook, and recognize the basic attributes of some magic plants (whether they are toxic or not).
In a normal Secret Keeper team, they can’t afford to have a full specialist in every subject.
The general logistics profession is a result of the industry being oversaturated and oversubscribed.
“Of course, if you’ve already determined your focus, such as Gardener…”
At this point, he glanced at Lu Ping’an, apparently knowing about this late-coming student’s situation.
“…Craftsman, medical, and other time-consuming specializations, you can apply for specialized courses in the first year, and the first choice is free, then discounted, and then full price afterward…Believe me, the tuition fees are incredibly expensive, so don’t waste this ‘free’ opportunity, otherwise, you’ll be worse off than a mortgage slave.”
The class director paused before continuing.
“You guys think about it, it’s not too late to decide by the second half of your sophomore year.”
Even though he said this, he knew that about half of them had probably already made up their minds, while the remaining ones would likely decide by the end of the year.
Only a very few would actually wait until the second year to decide their focus.
But he had to say it.
“…Every year, nearly 20% of students, for various reasons, give up their original field and choose another, carrying the heavy burden of tuition loans.
I don’t want you to become one of them.”
After scanning his new students and seeing that most of them were indeed thinking, he sighed with relief.
He was afraid that some people would impulsively rush in and decide without thinking…
Their interests, character, talent, and even opportunities determine how far a person can go on the path of mastery.
Many factors require time and accumulation to gradually manifest.
Ninety-nine percent of students who choose a second specialization do not do so because they have the ability to take both, but rather because they’ve gone down the wrong path and need to cut their losses.
But the next moment, Teacher Li couldn’t help but frown, aware that in his class, there was a madman who had chosen Gardener, Conductor, Chef, and Scholar as four different logistics specialties, and the school had actually approved it.
“The second major course is Basic Combat Subjects, don’t worry.
Although the General Department has the same courses, our passing standards are much lower than theirs and the direction of study is also different.
They learn to kill, while we learn how to protect ourselves when being hunted.
At any time, self-protection is of the utmost importance for logistics team members…”
At this moment, the class director looked at Lu Ping’an subconsciously.
This guy doesn’t need to take Basic Combat Subjects either, he jumped straight to Advancement Combat with the sophomore students.
“The third course is Intelligence Processing and Squad Configuration Analysis.
We are in the rear and are natural battlefield conductors.
We must at least understand the team members’ specialties and make appropriate adjustments.
When necessary, we also need to be responsible for negotiations…”
As each course was arranged one by one, it meant that the timetable for the new year could be set accordingly.
Every class only has two or three lectures per week, but when combined, there are quite a few.
The overwhelming courses are incredibly challenging.
Many people, like Lu Ping’an, had already decided their paths and completed their course arrangements with the school, while others still hesitated when school started.
Regardless, this was a deadline, and some things had to be settled.
Many people don’t listen to advice for the same reason: “By choosing a specialization in sophomore year, you lose an entire year when compared to others,” which is also true.
“If you have other course requirements, you can fill out the application form now.”
As the first class ended, Teacher Li collected a stack of new application forms and checked them one by one.
He was the class director but was actually also a “Big Six” senior brother who stayed at school…
There were too many classrooms, and each student has different goals, so it’s not necessary to get a professor to come over.
However, as an elder and senior brother, the more he looked at the applications, the more he felt overwhelmed.
Somebody felt that they were probably a genius and reported two specializations right away, with the most profitable and craziest ones being “runes” and “magic potions.”
Upon seeing the data, the student had an “awakening” time of less than two years and had only been in the first tier for a few months…
Li, who had similar experience, foresaw the miserable situation of this unlucky guy at the beginning of school.
“…Wait, let me talk to him later, I hope he’ll listen.”
Teacher Li sighed, as there are always people who don’t listen to advice year after year.
But in the next moment, he was stunned.
That was the application form of the “special student.”
“Didn’t he already have four specialties?
Why did he write again?
Does he want to remove one?
…What the hell!
He added one more?!
Tamer?!”
He picked up the application form, ready to chase the person down.
Even great talent can’t withstand such torment!
Any of these courses require years of accumulation and polishing to have a basic understanding, and the time spent in class is actually short.
It only helps clarify the learning route and determine the progress of learning.
The real bottomless pit is the time spent on research and polishing outside of class.
Trying to learn several courses at the same time doesn’t just mean multiple times the class time, but also multiple times the life span.
Trying to learn everything mostly results in being mediocre at everything.
But in the next moment, he stopped.
He remembered the dazzling gold color in this young man’s resume.
“…First-class Lantern Bearer Gold Badge, what right do I have to admonish him.”
