In a haze of spirit, Xu Shang-Chi finished this comical house division ceremony. As the new students joined Lorna in the corridor, both Riley and Squirrel Girl quickly ran over to catch up with him.
"Wait a minute, you guys aren't all going to..."
Riley started, then Squirrel Girl shrugged and replied, "I heard that the college run by that doctor is the most relaxed. If we went to Stark or Dr. Strange's, we'd probably have full schedules three days a week, and skipping class would be out of the question."
"The doctor's nice, you can ask for a leave. I have to take shifts at night for security, to fight cris," Riley added.
Then, the two of them simultaneously looked at Xu Shang-Chi. Riley asked with confusion, "You booked yourself full of classes. Why didn't you go to Stark's college? The students there work hard. They have to, really. From what I've heard, you can always hear Stark disciplining soone outside his office."
"Hold on, I'm still a bit confused," Xu Shang-Chi said, his rusty brain spinning in confusion. "What's with these four colleges? This is ridiculous."
Squirrel Girl blinked and said, "Didn't you read the admissions notice? At so point, you should have seen a portal open above your head, and a notice was thrown down. If you're unlucky, it might just hit you in the head."
"Don't they deliver it by owls?" Responded Xu Shang-Chi instinctively.
"Don't be silly, can owls deliver letters?" Riley shook his head. "Isn't a portal much more reliable than taming animals?"
"Shh," Squirrel Girl gestured and whispered. "I heard that Kamar-Taj really wanted to use owls. But the weather was too cold and the altitude too high, owls couldn't survive. So they thought about changing to hawks."
"Although both are birds of prey, hawks are obviously fiercer than owls. They're hard for mages to ta, and they easily hurt students, so they switched to using portals instead."
"As for the four colleges..." Squirrel Girl sighed. "Alright, I heard sothing unknown to others from a chanical head. If I were to tell you, what would you do for in return?"
"What good does it do to tell us now? We've all been assigned to colleges," Riley haggled instantly. "Now the three of us are in the sa college, we're in this together. At most, I'll pretend to be you when you skip class."
"Deal." Squirrel Girl nodded with a smile.
"I heard from my friend that at the very beginning, the Luminous Alliance, which is also the shadow organization of the Solar System Developnt Project, was composed of the superheroes you often hear about. They organized classes in the dream world."
"The first classrooms were only for mutants. Most of them weren't keen on studying, but they were incredibly talented and more powerful with knowledge. So, Professor Charles started pulling them into dreams to take classes at night."
Xu Shang-Chi's mind was in a complete ss. He was unable to understand what Squirrel Girl was saying. He was just an ordinary person who needed ti to digest this load of bizarre news all at once.
"Later, Dr. Schiller gave Professor Charles a school bus, which is the big ship that carries us here. Hippo Mama is the helmswoman. She's a kindhearted lady with many children who enjoys interacting with young people, so she took the school bus driving job."
"After a while, Professor Charles thought that using such a large ship to transport just a few mutants was a waste. At the sa ti, Peter Parker was substituting a physics class at Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. Professor Charles invited him to board the ship to the dream world classroom and continue teaching the mutants."
"At that ti, Peter Parker suggested that since one sheep is shepherded and two sheep are herded, why not let the young Spider-Man superheroes who've co here like Spider-Girl, who couldn't complete basic education, co over and sit in on classes."
"Professor Charles has always believed in teaching without any discrimination; any person willing to learn is a good child. He would love to have more people in his school. So, he allowed the Hippo Goddess to drive the bus to pick up the Spider superheroes."
"Back then, two Spider-n were receiving training at Matt's place. They went to class at night and casually ntioned this to Matt during the day chats."
"Matt thought it was an excellent thod. He also had many young superheroes under training who hadn't even finished high school. They couldn't understand basic spatial perspective and architectural structure, let alone adaptable tactics, so he asked Spider-Man to request Professor Charles to let ordinary young superheroes receive training in the dream."
"Professor Charles was delighted. He thought that his idea would definitely change many young people's lives. He had always been working towards this goal, not only for mutants but also ordinary people."
"So, he expended a great deal of effort to expand the school, making more classrooms and increasing the ntal bandwidth to accommodate more students."
"However, once we had more students, managent beca a big issue. Mutants, whether they be big or small cats, could simply mix in a classroom. But these young ones, so want to study physics, so want to learn magic, so are simply there for peace of mind to avoid nightmares."
"Different demands, different desired courses, needing many more teachers and specialized managent personnel led the Luminous Alliance to add this to their official plan."
"First, they devised a college system. Of course, in most modern universities this system has been abandoned, but here it's necessary because the students attending class co from different races; there are Mutants, ordinary people, Magicians. Their living environnts are different, their habits are different, and when cramd together, conflicts are bound to arise."
"Everyone knows about the conflicts between Mutants and ordinary people. Magicians, accustod to solitude, can't tolerate the noise from these two groups. After the opening of classes, so young Asgardians were thrown here by Divine King Thor and the Holy Sanctum also sent so young staff over for further study. When these groups gathered together, it seed as if the ceiling was about to be blown off."
"So, the Luminous Alliance divided all students into four colleges. One is Stark College, led by Stark, where ordinary people and young heroes are the main mbers. People here are more inclined to learn scientific technology such as basic disciplines like mathematics, physics, and advanced disciplines like spacecraft materials, energy science, etc."
"All students related to magic and magical energy will enter Kamar-Taj College, led by Supre Magician Strange. The main mbers of this college are Magicians, Holy Sanctuary staff and young people of different races from the Nine Major Kingdoms. The subjects taught here are related to magic, such as magic energy utilization, wand drawing, wand making, etc."
"Xavier College needs no further explanation, it's the original Mutant academy. Mutants are a special race. They mainly need to learn how to control their own powers and stabilize their ntal state. Therefore, they mainly learn subjects such as ditation, psychology, emotional adjustnt, etc."
"Lastly, Arkham College is the most distinctive. You can understand it as a managent college in regular universities, leaning towards humanities and social sciences. The main courses taught include psychology, behavioral science, sociology, and so application-oriented courses such as human resources, financial managent, and economic managent."
"Arkham College has the largest number of students and the most diverse races. So students ca to this college because they don't want their courses to take up too much of their sleep ti, as Doctor Schiller is easy going, granting leaves liberally and frequently."
"Of course, there are also so students who are not proficient scientists, they prefer strategic planning and overall control. They are managent reserve talent, so they ca here to learn these subjects, and in the future they will be key mbers of managent systems on Earth and the Nine Major Kingdoms."
"Of course, even though it's not been long since their establishnt, every college already has its own style."
"No need to ntion the scientific-oriented college belonging to Stark. Strict, ticulous, and ticulous are the creeds of these scientists. Plus, inspiration."
"Balance and tranquility are the words often spoken by the Supre Magician. However, due to the addition of alchemy and enchantnt in modern magic studies, Strange also often emphasizes full attention and power sublimation."
"'The most powerful force is to control innate abilities' is the creed Professor Charles has written for the Mutants, which is indeed suitable for Mutants, who were born powerful."
"Feel, perceive, analyze others and improve oneself are the motto of Arkham College. These are indeed the most important skills a managent talent needs to master. However, the gentle doctor also emphasizes 'humility' and a never satisfied hunger to drive constant progress."
Riley listened attentively, his thinking speed was much faster than Xu Shang-Chi, he nodded and said: "It seems that I did not choose the wrong college. I really need to analyze others and improve myself. Up to now, I don't know if I'm Peter Parker or Ben Reilly."
"Well, actually, I chose this college because I heard that the dean has a strong financial managent ability. Now the cost of the New Warriors Team is borne by Nightingale alone, but we don't want him to be so hard. We need to find a way to make money, at least to be self-sufficient." The Squirrel Girl shrugged and said.
Xu Shang-Chi's brain was basically not working. The vast amount of information, like violent tides, rushed into his brain all at once. Although it gradually removed so rust from certain areas of the brain, the intense impact made components unable to spin smoothly over a short period of ti.
As the three of them walked down the long corridor towards the classroom, a figure in a white coat suddenly ca around the corner.
"Hi, Dr. Schiller, oh, Dean Schiller, what are you doing here?" Riley was the first to go forward and greet.
Schiller nodded at them, then looked at Xu Shang-Chi and said, "Co with ."
Xu Shang-Chi opened his mouth, but before he had ti to react, Riley pushed him forward, and Schiller looked at the two and said, "You two also co."
So, the three of them followed Schiller, through the hallway and then through the courtyard at the back, and ca to the administrative area at the rear of the castle. They took the elevator upstairs, and in a spacious reception room, Xu Shang-Chi saw many Asian faces.
Schiller pushed his back to walk forward until he ca to face a middle-aged Asian man. Schiller looked at this man and said, "Chief Zheng, this is Little Xu whom I ntioned to you."
"Shang-Chi, co here, get to know, this is Chief Zheng Xian from China's SWORD."
