"Ladies and gentlen, the spaceship has reached Tilan Port on Silver Gray Star. Thank you for traveling on the Granling. We hope you had a pleasant journey and look forward to seeing you again."
The sweet voice of the attendant echoed through the ship’s broadcast.
Qin Tian opened his eyes, a flash of dark purple light passed through his gaze.
"Finally arrived."
The journey of over ten days was very fulfilling for him; he had almost completed two courses, "Combat Mastery" and "Swordsmanship Mastery." His Spiritual Energy and Spiritual Power were steadily growing, and just the day before yesterday, he officially broke through to Tier One Four Stars.
From awakening his Spiritual Energy to reaching Tier One Four Stars, it took less than two months in total.
Such rapid growth is closely tied to his Talent.
[Purple Thunder Bloodline] [Shadowbone Physique]
The two deep blue Talents are equivalent to Bronze Level bloodlines, granting him high affinity with Thunder and Dark Elents.
Additionally, the Spirit Essence Pill that he took before each cultivation session greatly boosted his cultivation efficiency.
Last but equally important, his persistence and determination.
Maintaining daily cultivation sounds easy, as if every Spiritualist can do it, but executing it in practice is not simple.
Cultivation is quite tedious and requires maintaining the sa posture for an extended ti with high concentration, ending in significant ntal fatigue.
At such tis, so might find excuses, saying they’re too tired and will practice tomorrow since skipping one day is not a big deal.
Or because a friend traveled far just to et them, they decide to spend the evening with their friend instead of practicing.
Qin Tian has encountered similar situations, like after practicing swordsmanship and combat all day, when a sparring partner invited him for dinner and drinks. Returning to his dorm late at night, he would still conscientiously complete his daily cultivation.
He understands well that when you repeatedly make excuses for yourself, laziness becos a habit.
The gaps between yourself and others will slowly widen during these seemingly insignificant sessions.
...
Returning to ground level was still via the space elevator, and soone was waiting upon reaching the star port exit.
"Old Yan, over here."
A rough and loud voice imdiately drew the attention of everyone nearby.
A burly middle-aged man over two ters tall waved to Yan Qing, unperturbed by the gazes of others.
Seeing the man, Yan Qing’s face broke into a smile, and he quickly walked over, saying:
"Zhang ng, it’s been years. Can you change your booming voice?"
"Change it for what? It’s this booming voice that keeps those little rascals in check."
Zhang ng laughed and cursed, then looked at Qin Tian behind Yan Qing and asked, "Is this the youngster coming to our school?"
"That’s right."
Yan Qing nodded and explained, "Qin Tian, this is Vice Principal Zhang ng of Eagle Military Academy, also my old classmate."
"Zhang ng, I’ll leave Qin Tian to you. Watch out for him in school. After graduation, he’ll be working for ."
"Don’t worry, with my protection, it’ll be perfectly fine."
Zhang ng said boldly, his gaze resting on Qin Tian for a mont.
Yan Qing had already briefed him on Qin Tian’s identity.
Like the others before him, he is a Cloned Soldier who awakened his Spiritual Energy and is now here at Eagle Military Academy for further studies.
The coming years are both a growth period for the Clones and their assessnt phase.
Their performance at school will be continuously reported to Yan Qing.
If they commit significant errors or have major deficiencies, they could be transferred to a border unit before graduation, losing their nurturing value.
"Let’s go, get in the car."
Zhang ng led the two to board a private Flying Device heading to the academy.
"By the way, Old Yan, which departnt are you planning to assign him to?" Zhang ng asked.
Yan Qing didn’t reply directly but instead asked for Qin Tian’s opinion:
"Which departnt would you like to join?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang ng turned his head, a trace of surprise flashing in his eyes.
What is Yan Qing up to?
Actually letting a Clone choose for himself?
Do they know anything at all~
Qin Tian responded slowly, "Director Yan, Principal Zhang, I want to know what departnts the school offers."
Oh huh, this Clone is kind of interesting, not as dumb, eh~
Zhang ng, intrigued, said, "Our school offers many faculties, but there are only three suitable for Spiritualists: the Military Conducting Departnt, Intelligence Departnt, and the Special Warfare Departnt."
Conducting, Intelligence, Special Warfare
Qin Tian made his decision almost without hesitation, "The Special Warfare Departnt."
He has a clear understanding that he is not a commander-in-chief type who can direct vast armies.
As for intelligence, many of his abilities truly suit this field, such as [Thousand Faces], [Black Gate], [Shadow Jump], [Poisonous Snake Body].
However, intelligence work is stressful, with fewer combat opportunities and fewer kills, making it harder to gather Evolution Points.
In comparison, he still prefers the familiar Special Warfare Departnt.
"The Special Warfare Departnt? You might want to reconsider; the Conducting Departnt is actually the school’s flagship specialization. The Special Warfare Departnt is quite diocre." Zhang ng offered advice.
As vice principal, saying that a departnt at his own school is rather diocre implies real issues with the specialization.
Eagle Military Academy is one of the three major military schools on Silver Gray Star, and graduates typically find employnt within the military.
Their post-graduate positions and environnt are closely linked to their specializations.
Conducting Departnt graduates generally enter organizations or frontline command staff, receiving training as reserve officers.
Intelligence Departnt graduates join special sectors, undertaking intelligence-related tasks.
Special Warfare Departnt graduates mostly join frontline units, serving as special operations leaders carrying out dangerous missions.
Over the years, Conducting and Intelligence Departnt graduates have beco pillars or influential figures within their units, whereas Special Warfare Departnt graduates mostly end up dead or injured.
Over ti, the Special Warfare Departnt shifted from a popular specialization to an unappealing choice, and now the Special Warfare Departnt students mostly consist of wealthy second-generation heirs paying high fees to attend.
These wealthy heirs are Spiritualists but lack the comprehensive skills for admission standards, opting for special admissions at the school, paying high fees to enter Eagle Military Academy, then foregoing a military career post-graduation to inherit family businesses.
Of course, the school doesn’t suffer, extracting substantial funds from these heirs to subsidize its finances.
Qin Tian was unaware of these inside issues at the school, but even if he knew, he wouldn’t change his decision.
Everyone has strengths and weaknesses.
He genuinely lacks interest in conducting and intelligence.
The chanism of the Talent Light Sphere necessitates a path filled with conflict, making special operations evidently more fitting for him.
"Principal Zhang, I still prefer the Special Warfare Departnt." Qin Tian insisted on his choice.
"Alright, then let’s assign you to the Special Warfare Departnt."
Zhang ng wasn’t offended; years of teaching experience have made him fully aware that it’s crucial for teachers to respect students’ personal choices.
Paths are chosen by oneself.
Everyone must take responsibility for their choices.
