Everyone in the lecture hall was waiting for Moss’s answer when the door suddenly opened, and someone stuck their chubby head in.
Creak!
Then a lump of white meat staggered and almost fell to the ground. As the door opened, the initially dark mass of heads at the door instantly appeared on both sides.
Ivan, The Equipment Academy’s assistant dean, sitting near the lecture hall door, stood up. His face was gloomy as he walked straight to the door.
Since things were not going well, Morales hurriedly bowed and said, “I’m sorry. I’ve entered the wrong hall.”
Then he dashed out and quickly closed the door. He closed the door so fast that the others could see afterimages. However, Morales controlled his strength very well. He did not make much noise, even with such speed.
After exiting the hall, Morales continued running toward the building exit. He complained, “Why did you squeeze? I can’t even eavesdrop now!”
Some students who understood what he meant also ran out of the building.
Ivan opened the lecture hall door and said sternly, “If I catch you eavesdropping again, I’ll send you to detention.”
The students who understood what he meant immediately dispersed. As a result, they could not gather information about which academy Moss would choose.
However, the students were shocked when they pushed the door open and saw Moss standing alone on the stage, facing the deans and numerous professors from the Great Five, not to mention hearing their generous offers.
Moss was meant to be famous that day. In the next half an hour, all 129 freshmen knew that the deans and professors from the Great Five were competing to recruit Moss.
It was explosive news. Just before that, two top clubs fought over Moss, and then the Great Five academies took turns doing the same thing. It was hard for Moss not to become famous.
Still, many remained unconvinced about him as it made everyone question—just how strong is Moss?
…
Morales’s blunder almost made Moss laugh out loud. Fortunately, he was able to control it with his spiritual power. He composed himself as determination filled his eyes. He said, “I choose the Spiritual Power Academy.”
It was not that he was too hasty to answer, but he had started thinking about this since Ivan introduced his academy, the Equipment Academy. According to Ivan’s introduction, Moss compared it with relevant information he had gathered before.
After listening to Jonya’s introductions, he already had an answer for the Great Five. Moss was even more sure of his preemptive decision when he heard the various academies’ introductions again today.
He was sure that a potent spiritual power was a massive motivation to raise his upper limits, as it was also the key to his rapid growth.
The Great Five heard Moss’s answer, and each reacted differently. Besides the Spiritual Power Academy, the others felt deeply regretful about it. Even so, the deans still went forward to congratulate Burton.
“Congratulations, you have the privilege to guide a once-in-a-decade genius!”
“Congratulations, your academy’s reputation will rise even more now!”
“Congratulations, Burton. Your academy has obtained an outstanding student.”
“Congratulations! Lady Luck was on your side today!”
The Strategy Academy’s dean was the last to walk over. He smiled slightly and said coldly, “Congratulations, but don’t get complacent, Burton. If I discover you’ve hindered Moss, I will not hesitate to snatch him from you.”
“Thank you, but I won’t give you the chance to do that,” Burton said smilingly, but a potent spiritual pressure filled every word.
Since the dean had left, the other four deans left. They had nothing else to do other than express their regret. After all, Moss had not chosen their academy, so Moss did not choose them as his teachers.
Only he and the people from the Spiritual Power Academy remained in the lecture hall. At that moment, the eleven professors sitting behind Burton sent him messages, “Dean Burton, let’s move on to the next segment.”
Burton did not even turn to look at the professor as he said snappily, “What’s the rush? He’s already a member of our academy. Are you afraid he’ll run away?”
Then he waved at Moss kindly, “Come and sit, Moss.”
Then he paused. After Moss sat before him, he continued with incomparable pride, “You don’t have to choose a division for the time being. You can think about that when you return to your dorm, or you don’t have to choose one at all.
“You can choose any course in our academy based on your preferences. Your GPA won’t fall below the school requirements as long as you complete your academic credits.”
Moss was shocked, ‘Dean Burton is so bold. He doesn’t hold standards against his students.’
Burton noticed Moss seemed pretty happy, so he pointed to the professors behind him, saying, “Behind me are eleven elite professors from our academy. They are also representatives of Kyoto’s core faculty.
“According to the management, every student must choose a tutor to be the university professor for four years. Moss, you can choose a professor if you see one you like. You can ask them to introduce themselves later if you want to know them better.”
“Thank you, Dean Burton.” Moss smiled at Burton, stood up, and bowed. “Then I will have to trouble you all.”
He looked calm before the professors, but there were ripples in his heart, making him think of the student graduate interview in his past life.
More than twenty graduates tried their best to fight for a famous tutor. Such a marked contrast made those in this state of mind uncomfortable.
‘It seems talent is a scarce resource everywhere,’ Moss thought.
The oldest of the eleven professors was wearing gold-rimmed glasses. He took the lead and said, “Moss, I’m Berg from the school of mental strength. My main research area is improving vocational skills. I don’t have many students currently, so I will have much time to guide you personally.”
Moss stood up and bowed at Berg.
When Berg sat down, a muscular older man stood up and said, “I am Barrow, and my primary research concerns the contribution of spiritual power to physical abilities. I can help your physical abilities achieve an unprecedented breakthrough. Besides, I’ve taught nearly a hundred students and have my own training method for knights.”
‘No wonder Dean Barrow’s physique is so good. There’s still a lot of room for spiritual power to improve my physical abilities,’ Moss thought.
Moss stood up and bowed again. Just like that, the first ten professors finished introducing themselves.
Moss turned to the middle-aged man sitting at the back. The man looked smaller than an ordinary person, but his gaze was bright and spirited.
He calmly stood up and said, “My name is Brady, and I’ve been at Jingdou University for less than two years. Also, I’ve only been teaching for less than a year and have only cared for two students.”
He paused and looked at Moss, wanting to see his reaction upon hearing his words. Brady was shocked when he did not see what he wanted from Moss. He saw a look of reverence in Moss’s eyes.
It made Brady’s heart jolt. ‘I’ve deliberately suppressed my spiritual power. Can he still sense it?! He isn’t an ordinary student.’
He was thrilled with that thought in mind. He also became excited and changed the topic, “However, I can help students greatly increase their spiritual power. I can also guide them to use it better.”
With that, Brady looked at Moss.
