"The highest admission score in the province for Riyue Mecha Junior College is as high as 2403 points. Those who can get in are practically superhuman... The students who can get in are already not much worse than me."
His gaze shifted to your dazed expression: "But don't worry, your current qualifications don't require you to compete for resources at those prestigious colleges. On the contrary, you're someone who came from a lower dimension, and what you lack most is a solid foundation. Our Evergreen University can arrange the best teaching team to fill in any gaps in your knowledge."
"On the other hand, if you go to a prestigious junior college but can't keep up with the learning, and no teachers are willing to teach you from scratch, your promising future will be wasted!"
"Only Evergreen University is different. You have ample time to build a solid foundation here, and although we don't provide you with mechs, our university's exoskeletons are top-notch!"
"Most importantly—you don't have to worry about your future, because as a top university, we have partnerships with many colleges and universities, providing pathways for further education. You can upgrade from a bachelor's degree to a diploma!"
You're completely numb.
Yun Shou was also numb.
"Damn it! Drop out of school!"
Ji Xun: "I won't retreat."
"Since you're here, you might as well make the best of it." His smile at that moment seemed so sinister and cunning to you: "You've already signed the consent form; you have no way out!"
You: "Signing a consent form ≠ I agree; consent can be withdrawn."
[Ji Xun: "This won't work in the airspace."]
"You guys are really outdated."
"But don't worry, things aren't as bad as you think."
Ji Xun coughed lightly: "You won't be staying at our university for long. There's an all-space freshman competition in two months. If you perform exceptionally well in the competition, other advanced colleges will come to poach you on the same day."
"Although Changqing University is only using you to gain a competitive edge, that period was indeed a good opportunity for you to fill in the gaps in your knowledge!" Ji Xun said. "Anyway, you'll have to learn those basic knowledge sooner or later, so what difference does it make where you learn it?"
"Consider it a token of gratitude for your and my brother's recognition." He knew his small pond couldn't contain such a powerful dragon like you. At 19, a peak Inner Master, if you didn't perish prematurely, you would undoubtedly become the strongest Machine Master in the future, and might even have a chance to contend for the title of Machine King.
Such entities only need to linger briefly in a small pond like Changqing University, allowing them to absorb some of the dragon's aura. But if you rise to prominence later, they too will rise with you, potentially advancing from a top-tier university to a second-rate, or even a first-rate, vocational college!
Therefore, aside from tricking you into signing the admission agreement at the beginning, Ji Xun decided to have the entire Changqing University do everything in its power to please you. Even if you become successful later and don't specifically promote them, at least don't hold it against them for using your fame.
You now understand the college entrance examination system related to airspace.
Cultivation and knowledge go hand in hand, but in reality, cultivation is the primary focus, because much scientific research involves extraordinary powers like the power of manipulation.
Furthermore, many lower-level individuals lack access to higher-level knowledge bases and are unable to participate in more advanced assessments.
For example, pilots at the Qi Realm level are not even qualified to take the college entrance examination; they cannot even attend high school. Pilots at the Liquid Realm level have a cultivation score of 40-200 points, but the maximum score on their knowledge-based exams is only 200 points. In other words, no matter how much they know, they can only score 400 points.
[If you perform exceptionally well in the Liquid Realm, you can get into the worst university (score requirement 360/out of 400); in the Crystal Realm, you can get into a decent university (out of 600); and in the Force Realm, if you push yourself to the limit, you can reach the 1000 score requirement for a junior college (out of 1000).]
Only by reaching the level of an air traffic controller can one secure admission to a junior college. Furthermore, the maximum score for an air traffic controller is 2500 (with a skill cap of 1000 points and a knowledge test score of 1500 points), meaning one can essentially get into any junior college in the air traffic control field!
[...but the cultural exam was incredibly difficult, especially the last 500 points, where each point was harder to get than the last, involving a wide variety of knowledge points that were complex, disorganized, numerous, and intricately intertwined.]
[The number of candidates taking the first level or above in the airspace exams each year is approximately 800 billion, but less than 100 million of them score above 1000 points in the cultural subjects, fewer than 100,000 score above 1200 points, and no more than 100 score above 1400 points.]
For example, this year's top scorer in the college entrance examination had 2260 cultivation points at the second level, fifth stage, plus 1307 academic points, for a total score of 3567.
His cultivation had reached the second realm, but he hadn't even reached the maximum score for the first realm.
"It's probably because he spent all his time leveling up that he neglected his academic studies."
[You already know some other information from previous simulations, such as—a drug that can temporarily enhance comprehension: Awakening Elixir.]
[This is a necessity for the airspace: to achieve excellent grades and make learning easier, every child must start drinking the Awakening Elixir from a young age. (Chapter 395)]
Back when you were struggling with how to navigate the path to becoming a True King within the Zunyuan system, it was the Void Domain that provided a way out.
However, after Xu Ling'er appeared, and after it was discovered that enlightenment could be stacked, the usefulness of this enlightenment potion to you decreased significantly.
[Now that you've descended ten times, and your comprehension has reached over ten thousand times that of a True Immortal, the Spirit Awakening Liquid has become utterly useless to you.]
"I originally thought that thing would be something I'd drink for the rest of my life, helping the future Old Yun through every rebuild, but after a few rebuilds, it couldn't keep up with the version."
[Furthermore, for those of you from the lower realms, points are calculated at twice the cultivation level. For example, the ninth level of the Power Realm is worth 1000 points, comparable to the maximum score achievable by other Power Realm cultivators in the Void Domain.]
After all, talents who grow up in a backward "low-dimensional starry sky" are destined to have slower cultivation and less knowledge due to their environment; it's like a kind of score subsidy for a remote place.
On December 25th, you completed your ID card, genetic testing, iris scan registration, and other procedures, thus completing the enrollment process for Evergreen University and moving into the university's top-tier double dormitory room.
[You also used some deterioration techniques, reducing the strength of your blood and manipulation power by thousands of times, in order to pass those tests.]
As for Xu Wen and the other two, they cleanly and decisively revealed their eight-times-sized true forms.
They called this their "body of manipulation."
