Chapter 9 Preparing for School



"Minors in the interstellar system are required to attend school. Here are some of the top schools in the central galaxy. Take a look at which ones you like and I'll apply for admission for you."

Jing Xia was curled up on the sofa trying to digest his food and was drowsy when he suddenly heard the bad news. He woke up immediately and flattened himself like a pancake, and the egg in his hand slipped to the side.

"Is it too late for me to change to adulthood now?!"

"Too late. Actually, the schools here in the interstellar space are quite interesting. They are not just textbook-based teaching, some of them focus more on practical experience."

Di Xiu took the black egg that almost fell to the ground, put the egg in his arms, gently placed the information on the face of the pancake, and pinched it.

Well, it feels really good.

"Pick one. It's still the school holidays, so I'll take a look... The new semester won't start for another two months."

He also told Jingxia that he would be going out frequently in the near future. In addition to patrolling and on duty, he would also have to deal with the accumulated affairs of the legion, and he might be too busy to take care of him by then.

"You have to learn all the necessary knowledge about Interstellar within this week."

"No problem, just go on patrol and I'll take care of myself."

Jing Xia patted his chest, looked at the school information in his hand and chose the one he liked the most - Imperial Military School.

“I want to go to this.”

"Military? It's okay. The food in the cafeteria is good, and there are a lot of practical classes, but you have to go out for training frequently.

I'll apply for a non-residential stay so you can go back home. Do you need a shuttle to pick you up?

Or you can fly back by yourself, just remember to put on the invisible energy shield and take care of the egg."

Di Xiu looked at the military school chosen by Jing Xia and introduced its details to him. When he mentioned the egg, he knocked the black egg in his arms.

"good"

After the two of them had discussed it, Di Xiu pushed Jing Xia into the bathroom on the second floor and told him to wash up and go to bed early, as he had to get up early the next day to register and sign in at the military academy.

Enrollment in military schools is based on the academic year system. Those like Jing Xia who enter during the academic year must first pass an ability test.

Just as I was about to turn around and go downstairs to collect some information for Jingxia, the bathroom door opened again, hot air came out, and a furry head popped out.

"Xiu! Give me the egg."

"Why are you holding the egg?" Di Xiu was curious why he had to hold the egg while taking a bath?

"Wash it while you're at it. I think I accidentally dropped a few drops of oil on it while eating." Jing Xia took the egg and shrank back inside.

"Thank you."

The door closed, blocking out the escaping steam. Looking at his empty hands, Di Xiu shook his head and went downstairs. "I'm still just a kid." He pulled out his laptop and sent another message to his colleague.

[Xiu] Have your new batch of spiritual fruits come out?

【Mo Bai】You’re out, what for?

【Mobai】Dog alert.jpg

[Repair] Give the child some supplements to avoid insufficient energy when arriving at the interstellar space.

[Mo Bai] OKOK, wait for Mo Yi to come back and ask him to send it to you.

[Xiu] How long will it take?

[Mo Bai] About a month? I don’t know the exact time, but it seems his mission this time is a bit difficult.

[Xiu] Forget it. I’ll come to get it from you some other day.

[Mo Bai] Sure, bring the kids over for a get-together. How about a party?

【修】practice.

Di Xiu looked at the emoticons this person posted, and thought of the cold and expressionless face of Si Moyi, the original owner of the emoticons, Tianlang. The emoticon maker Mo Bai only dared to post it behind his back, otherwise Si Moyi would pull him out of his roots.

In the bathroom, Jing Xia was soaking in the warm water, leaning against the bathtub, using shower gel to make bubbles for the egg in her arms. Sometimes the bubbles made two cat ears on the egg, and sometimes made two pointed corners.

No one knows what will hatch out of the egg. There are very few cubs born in the gap. Jing Xia is already the youngest generation. She has never taken care of a cub and is looking forward to the cub hatching from the egg.

"What do you think your birth will be like?"

After rinsing off the foam from the egg, Jing Xia put it in a basin filled with water and placed it next to the bathtub. She lay on the edge of the bathtub, poked the egg with her hand to make it float up and down in the water, and gently stroked the silver lines on the egg with her fingers.

"But the eggshells are so beautiful, the hatched chicks must be beautiful too.

Maybe he's covered in scales like me, or has soft fur like Uncle Jiuhuai. It must be very comfortable to touch."

The black egg with silver stripes swayed up and down in the basin as if responding to Jing Xia.

After taking a bath, Jing Xia returned to the room and inserted the scale carved into the shape of the Emperor Xiu Dragon into the groove of the night light.

The pale light shone into the room, making the pattern on the ceiling shine even brighter, like the Milky Way in the night sky. The flowing light made the pattern seem to come alive and tell Jingxia its own story. The nine-tailed fox swayed its tail, and the divine deer seemed to drink in the fluctuating light...

Jing Xia's breathing gradually calmed down in this beautiful scenery, and he fell into a deep sleep. After he fell asleep, the eggs in the nest shook gently, as if admiring these biological patterns that did not originally belong to the interstellar space.

In the middle of the night, Di Xiu sorted out the materials needed for Jing Xia to enroll in school and collected some knowledge needed in school. He was about to go back upstairs to rest. Looking at the light coming from under Jing Xia's door, he gently pushed the door open and found that Jing Xia was already fast asleep, with her egg lying on the side in the little nest.

He quietly walked into the room, pulled out the dragon scale from the night light and put it aside. The room suddenly became dark.

As a dragon, Emperor Xiu had no problem seeing at night. He covered Jing Xia with the quilt and straightened the egg. Looking at Jing Xia who was sleeping soundly and had no vigilance towards others approaching, he sighed softly.

"Sure enough, he's still a little cub..."

After leaving the room, he paused before closing the door.

"good evening"
