First Day of School (II)

Mark walked into the classroom and was not surprised that the classroom followed a traditional university setting. The seats were set in a large semi-circle with a small podium and a large screen.

Mark chose a seat at the back of the classroom as he tried to avoid the attention of the teacher and the other students. After all he doesn't plan on

showing up personally for many lessons in the future so it would be better for people to know less about him. This would allow the clones to make a

a few mistakes without being caught out.

''Alright students everyone take your seat'' The woman nodded in satisfaction before continuing, ''My name is Leila, and i'll giving you the rundown of

what will happen while your in school, and i'll be in charge of teaching you cultivation practice''

''First and foremost, the most valuable thing here is credits, you can use credits to purchase anything in the school. You can earn credits

through accepting various tasks from within the task center, and if you wish you can use your watch to leave the school and go hunting in the surrounding fields.''

''Secondly, your lessons are optional. You will be able to show up to most lessons within the school freely. However, certain lessons will be private. An example of this is the cultivation practice lessons that I personally teach. The prerequisite is that you have either condensed a single strand of spiritual

energy, or you have a good physical foundation.''

Mark listened slowly and intently, after all any useful knowledge would help at this point. He especially liked that there was a cultivation class.

After all, since he had appeared in this world he had only meditated based on his own skill rather than knowing any tips about it.

He naturally easily passed the qualifications to participate, however he already planned to keep a low profile by splitting into many clones and only going

with a single strand of spiritual energy. And based on his quick scan around the classroom there were at least 20 people who had cultivated one strand, there were even some who had cultivated three or four or more!

However the rest of the information that Leila continued to say was just as helpful. It included all the time tables of various lessons.

There were basic lessons like geography and history and even practical lessons like basic alchemy and manufacturing. Even how to run various businesses and be workers of the city government were taught in lessons.

Mark decided to try to show up to as many lessons after all he lacked a lot of knowledge in this world, and even basic lessons like how to be workers would

be helpful for him in the future.

This would also be quite easy, after all according to Leila hundreds or even thousands of people would show up to these lessons daily and while it was mainly a minority that covered their faces was still a large number.

So Mark could easily send in various clones under covers of masks to attend all the lessons.

''Ok that is everything to do with the basics of the school, next we will test out your physical foundation and spiritual energy to see who is qualified for

the cultivating class'' The melodious voice snapped Mark out of his thoughts.

The class excitedly whispered when they heard that, after all no one wanted to be stuck doing desk work in the government. They would rather attempt to

become warriors and chase the road of wealth and luxury.

''We will take you to the test room, in which you will either check your fitness using special machines or if you have cultivated spiritual energy

you will simply place your hand on the blue crystal.''

Leila took the lead and left the classroom followed by the large number of students. Mark however urged his spiritual energy and quickly ran home. He had to summon clones to hide his true strength. After all he was already a warrior and that would inevitably cause a large amount of suspicion.

He returned to the dorm with a gust of wind and immediately 38 more clones, the room was immediately cramped as the girl still took over the bed and Mark

had 39 clones summoned leaving him with barely and strength just higher than an ordinary person.

He also made a snap decision and ordered the clones to move the bed with the girl on it into the small cupboard that came out of the dorm. This was

purely to prevent her from waking up and seeing so many exact copies of Mark. However he did order one clone to stay taking care of her while the others began to exercise.

However as he ran back he was much slower, however he finally made it back to the group of students who were still funneling their way towards the

testing room.

No one noticed he was gone.

Mark didn't notice that Leilas eyes tilted to the right slightly as he appeared and a slight smile formed on her face.

When Mark arrived at the testing room he saw a large machine with a strange leather cover on a pole. Obviously this was the machine that would

test the students' strength.

The crystal, however, was placed on a small pillar in the very center of the testing room.

''That is the energy testing crystal. It is a very expensive piece of equipment that will precisely tell us how much energy you have in your body'' Leila

continued to drone on but Mark's attention was distracted.

There were no worries with this test so he focused his attention on the future.

Currently he has more than enough money to buy clothes with the help of continuous tasks. He had already ordered the other 38 clones to go and purchase enough clothes for the entire outfit.

He wanted to send the clones out to hunt for him.If he wanted to make full use of this he needed enough cultivation resources and an area that he can freely

allow the clones to cultivate in.

Most Noble forces create fortresses outside of the city to allow for secret warriors to cultivate in. However Mark's strength was far from enough to do that so he planned on buying somewhere within the city to practice in.

At this moment he heard a familiar system noise in his head.

[Congratulations for the host for becoming a Rank 1 warrior, provided with one Gift box]

Then a system message popped up.

''What? A reward for becoming a warrior? Wasn't that ages ago?''

[Apologies to the host, the system waited until a suitable time to reward it]

''What... You call this a suitable time?'' Mark said as he looked around, seeing the various students going through their tests.

''Well it doesn't matter, open the gift box''

[Opening Gift box...
