Special Treatment Pod can restore the body, but injuries like severed arms and legs are still very painful. Even if the severed limbs are reattached using the Special Treatment Pod, it requires several months of rehabilitation to fully recover.
Now, the students below are watching Maya Goddess, or rather Maya the God of Death, with their eyes wide open, ready to strike. The ground in front of Maya on the Arena is already stained with a large pool of blood.
The fifteen advanced recovery Special Treatment Pods set up behind the Arena are all at capacity.
If someone were to have their arms or legs severed again without immediate medical attention, they could bleed out and truly die.
Cang Sang Handsome Uncle Orante's Special Class One had previously awakened three Students with Ability, and soon two new students joined. Special Class One is now full with five members and is no longer accepting new students.
The principal observed the awkward silence during the Opening Ceremony battle. For decades, this is the first time in history that Special Class One has not recruited enough members.
Currently, Maya's class consists only of Rek and Alice, who was specially recruited due to her awakened Ability.
The old monster principal walked toward the front of the Arena again and attempted to speak, saying, "Our motto at Super Soldier Academy is fearlessness and struggle. New students, where is your fearlessness? Where is your fighting spirit?" The Old Principal glanced back at the row of emergency Recovery Pods behind the Arena, his voice losing some confidence as he continued.
On the playground, discussions among the new students in Regular Classes began to rise. No matter how much the old monster principal tried to provoke or persuade them, no one stepped up to challenge Maya.
"The motto isn't about disability and sacrifice!"
"It should be about bloodshed and death!"
"I actually feel that Regular Classes suit me just fine; I don't need to go to a Special Class."
"Yeah, I'm afraid of pain, even more afraid of death. We've all been assigned to our classes; shouldn't the Opening Ceremony be ending soon?"
"Only now does the fool dare to go up there; the Recovery Pod is already full, and it filled up in just half an hour."
"Wrap it up already, I'm hungry!" The students below were in a flurry of discussions.
The Old Principal looked helplessly at Rek, sighing about what kind of freak had come to the academy today. Even the usually calm Sword Goddess had been provoked into a fierce state in public.
He glanced again at Maya, who was in a fit of rage.
The Old Principal didn't dare to advise Maya to go easy at this moment; if he triggered her anger, she might turn her sword on him.
Clearing his throat a couple of times, the Old Principal began to deliver the closing remarks, concluding this year's Opening Ceremony and class assignments for the new students.
After announcing the dismissal, the new students followed their respective teachers to their classrooms.
Maya turned around and walked away with her longsword in hand.
Golden-Haired Alice walked over to Rek and gave him a thumbs up. "Rek, I really admire you! From now on, we'll be classmates. I hope you can survive longer. In her armored Sword Goddess state, Maya could easily take me down without Victorious Monkey; you really have guts, truly worthy of wanting to become a war god!"
Rek grimaced and nodded.
The Class One Homeroom Teacher, an old man with a weathered face, passed by Rek and shot him a hostile glare. "Student, be careful from now on." The Class One Homeroom Teacher glared at Rek before turning away.
Rek didn't care at all; after all, he was already like a dead pig that wasn't afraid of boiling water.
Most people in the Metal Playground and Arena were about to leave. The Old Monster Principal turned around and chuckled as he looked at Rek.
“Rek, today your courage to enter Special Class Two is commendable!” Old Principal said with a dry smile, about to turn and leave.
“Wait, old monster, I mean, Principal. I was thinking, can I stay at your place for a while? I see that you are very strong and impressive, and I want to learn from you—” Rek tried to say to the old principal.
“You're not wrong. But you want to hide away at my place, right? Young man, you need to face what you must eventually confront.
I can't teach you anything right now. You’ve noticed my awakened Ability; it’s a dual-gender Ability. Although it’s powerful, it’s not suitable for you to learn at this stage.
If you really want to learn from me, it's not impossible; I could make an exception for you.
But first, you need to consider undergoing a minor surgery. Are you interested in having surgery? Our Super Soldier Academy has advanced medical equipment, and this minor procedure is not dangerous!” Old Principal said in a sticky voice to Rek.
Hearing this made Rek break out in a cold sweat.
“Well, I still feel like I'm doing fine in Maya's class. I just remembered that I have something urgent to attend to; I’ll be leaving now,” Rek said while backing away, and after finishing his sentence, he turned and ran.
The War God System in Rek's mind chimed in, “Host, it has scanned the dual-gender Old Principal and determined that he is the strongest human you've encountered so far.
It is recommended that Host learns from him. It’s just a minor surgery; the System can assist Host with it. After learning from Old Principal, Host's dual-gender abilities will significantly improve in a short time, and—” The War God System hadn't finished speaking.
“A minor surgery? No way! I’d rather die than undergo that procedure. Stop talking about it, System! If you keep this up, I'll have nightmares!” Rek shouted at the War God System in his mind, telling it to be quiet.

Rek began wandering around the Super Soldier Academy casually, observing this well-known institution within the Star Alliance Military. As for Maya, the homeroom teacher of Special Class Two, unless he wanted to end up dead or have his limbs severed, Rek knew he couldn't attend her class anytime soon.
Opening Ceremony On the afternoon of the first day, normally, the homeroom teachers would briefly guide the students to check out the facilities of the Super Soldier Academy and understand the situation in Dark Space.
The formal classes would not start until the next day, with a week-long military training session beforehand.
In his previous life, when Rek was admitted to medical school, he also underwent a brief military training, but it could not compare to the intensity of military training in the army.
"Right, let's go see how Moon Goddess is doing. She went to the infirmary as an intern nurse; was her registration successful?" Rek thought to himself. He remembered that when he parted ways with Moon Goddess, he saw that her Wrist Communicator displayed the registration location as Infirmary Room 101.
Rek checked the newly downloaded 3D map of Super Soldier Academy on his wrist device and followed the virtual signposts to head towards Infirmary Room 101.

Inside Infirmary Room 101, a Middle-Aged Female Doctor wore a grim expression as she oversaw three nurses receiving fifteen Advanced Healing Recovery Chambers that were in use, transported from First Metal Playground.
Last night, the logistics department head approached the medical Middle-Aged Female Doctor, requesting to borrow over ten of the highest-grade Special Treatment Pods, promising to return them within half a day without damage. The purpose was to give the new students participating in the Opening Ceremony a glimpse of the robust capital and advanced medical facilities of Super Soldier Academy.
The medical room's Middle-Aged Female Doctor believed him and lent out fifteen of the latest Advanced Healing Pods, filled with Recovery Fluid, which had just arrived from Sanctuary Base.
Just ten minutes ago, an aide from the logistics department returned with the fifteen used Advanced Healing Pods. Even the department head himself did not dare to connect with the Middle-Aged Female Doctor via communication.
