"Teacher, what's that in your hand?" As the curious baby, Huo Yuhao naturally asked subconsciously.
"This? It's a terminal, full name is Multi-dimensional Intelligent Interconnected Ecological Mobile Terminal, abbreviated as terminal. It's a type that integrates communication, entertainment, office, and other functions of a technological product. I'll prepare one for you later."
"I...I don't need it. This thing must be very expensive."
Huo Yuhao shook his head quickly. Although he didn't understand, he could tell it was very impressive. This kind of thing must be very valuable. Huo Yuhao didn't want to owe others too much, he hoped to be self-reliant.
"Not expensive, this one is only 500 stardust."
"Stardust? What is that? Is it the currency of this world?"
Before Huo Yuhao could ask, he heard Moebius speaking to the terminal, "It's me, I'm back. Meet me at the south gate of the academy. I'm bringing a new student over."
After saying this, Moebius ended the communication and then looked towards the door.
After about five minutes, a figure hurriedly approached, and it was a young girl.
"Sorry... teacher... for keeping you waiting... *panting*"
Huo Yuhao looked at the newcomer with some curiosity. She was wearing a blue and white uniform.
She has long deep blue hair and a pair of thick eyebrows above golden eyes.
Under her eyelids are deep dark circles, with a pale complexion that suggests she hasn't slept well. Coupled with her wheezing and weak appearance, one can't help but wonder if she might just drop dead the next second.
"He's here, Nightingale. From now on, he's your junior. Take this recommendation letter and this card, and help him with the enrollment procedures, purchase some daily necessities, as well as a spatial ring and a terminal. Can you handle it?"
Upon seeing the girl named Nightingale, Moebius immediately restrained his smile and adopted a very serious attitude. Nightingale also stood up straight, nodded repeatedly, and even bowed to Huo Yuhao. "Yes, leave it to me. Hello, junior, I'm Starry Nightingale. Welcome to Quadrate Star Academy. Please guide me in the future."
"Hello, my name is Huo Yuhao, please take care of me in the future, senior sister."
"No... there's no need to call me senior sister. Actually, we should be in the same year. You can just call me Nightingale directly."
Upon hearing the term "senior sister," Nightingale immediately became flustered, lowered her head, and said somewhat awkwardly and shyly.
Seeing his senior sister so fragile and shy, Huo Yuhao found it quite interesting. "I'll leave this to you guys, I'm going first," Moebius nodded and then stepped into the campus.
"Teacher, take care!"
Watching her gradually leave, Nightingale breathed a sigh of relief, then looked somewhat awkwardly at Huo Yuhao.
"Let's... go, junior. I'll take you to... handle the enrollment."
"Um, thank you for your trouble."
Nightingale brought Huo Yuhao to the enrollment entrance. With the recommendation letter, the teacher at the enrollment office nodded and stamped it, indicating that Huo Yuhao had been admitted.
"Um... Senior Nightingale, what are the requirements for entering the Quadrate Star Academy? Is there no need for an assessment?"
Huo Yuhao I originally thought I would have to go through some assessment to be admitted, but I didn't expect it to be so simple. I remember Shrek Academy claims to only accept monsters, not mediocre people. Does Quadrate Star Academy not have similar standards?
"Uh? You don't have to call me senior sister. Um... the academy has set up three standards, as long as you meet one of them, you can be admitted.
The first is family background. As long as your family is wealthy and influential and can obtain a letter of recommendation, you can be admitted.
The second is innate talent. If you have talent in a certain area and can gain the recognition of the examiners, you can be admitted.
The third is attitude and character. Even if you don't have money and have average talent, as long as you have perseverance and determination, you can be admitted through the assessments set by the academy.
However, the assessments are generally not too difficult. It's not actually difficult to be admitted, and basically everyone can be admitted. The dean refers to it as "compulsory education."
The real challenge is how to advance. This is just the outer courtyard, where only basic knowledge is taught. If you want to learn more in-depth, you must enter the inner courtyard or transfer to one of the other three courtyards, which requires a considerable effort. Even if you have money, it's not possible." "Oh, the teacher behind has told me about that." Facing the senior sister, Huo Yuhao also didn't know how to address Moebius as "sister," and according to the rules, he should indeed call her "teacher."
"How did you get in, senior sister?"
"Me? I, like you, got in with a recommendation letter, but... um, it's nothing."
Yeying seemed to want to say something, but in the end, she didn't.
After completing the enrollment process, Huo Yuhao also received four sets of school uniforms, two for spring and summer, two for autumn and winter, and a set that matched Nightingale's.
"Let's go, I'll take you to stroll around the campus and buy some daily necessities."
"Just wait a moment, senior sister, do we not have to pay tuition for enrollment?"
"No, as I said earlier, entering the outer courtyard for education is Compulsory education, so there's no need to pay tuition. However... if you stay in the school, eat, use water, or use spiritual energy, you will need to pay for it yourself. Of course, if you don't have money, it's okay. The school can provide you with work-study opportunities or loans so that even those from poor families who can't afford education can receive it."
"That's great. I understand."
Huo Yuhao nodded repeatedly, and his fondness for the Quadrate Star Academy increased once again. It's so great and generous to provide education for poor children who can't afford to go to school.
"Then... can I sell grilled fish to make a living and support myself?"
Huo Yuhao also doesn't intend to always spend Moebius's money. If he has to say what he's good at, Huo Yuhao is good at grilling. When he was wandering outside, he made a living by fishing.
"Of course, I can. I also have a part-time job. Do you need me to introduce a restaurant to you?"
"Thank you."
Huo Yuhao nodded, feeling somewhat surprised. Nightingale had mentioned that as long as one's family had money and power, they could enter the school with a recommendation letter. She had also come in with a recommendation letter, but still needed to work part-time. Could it be... that she, like himself, had earned the recommendation letter through the appreciation of Moebius? But... looking at the teacher's attitude towards her... it didn't seem like it.
At one point, Huo Yuhao became even more curious about this senior sister.
【This girl is not an ordinary person. Like you, she also possesses spiritual power, but she doesn't have a beast soul. She should not be from the Southern Wild realm, but rather from the Western Fantasy realm or the Eastern Profound Realm. Of course, there is also a chance that she is from the North Cold realm.】
"Please stop the car!"
At that moment, the nightingale reached out and gestured towards the street, and a small airship with about six seats floated down from the sky.
"Let's go, we're heading to the commercial street."
