637 – Compulsory Mission
Shrek Academy would actually ask them to choose three times. The first was at the enrollment, the second was now, and the third time would be entering the Inner Court. Once they were accepted into the Inner Court and it was confirmed that they would be willing to move for mankind’s sake in times of danger, it was not something that could be easily changed.
No one made a sound, and Xiao Qi only saw calm eyes. Their mental preparation had been completed a long time ago. With Lan Xuanyu as the leader, every student in the Star War Experimental class was actually looking forward to the upcoming mission.
Every youth felt admiration for heroes. In the past few years, they had experienced many things , even more than ordinary Outer Court students.
In the final exam last year, they had infiltrated a foreign planet in Douluo World in order to kill enemies and had carried out several missions. Although these were simulated, it was already very similar to the real world. No one had retreated.
Xiao Qi’s heart was filled with shock and gratitude towards this. And the source of all this was Lan Xuanyu and his teammates risking their lives to protect their teammates whenever they were in danger.
After watching that video, every student was deeply infected and shocked. This was the reason why Lan Xuanyu was able to gain everyone’s support with his lowest cultivation.
From then on, they subconsciously thought that they should do the same, just like how Lan Xuanyu’s teammates risked their lives to save him.
From the first-year onwards, their class had always been unusually united. This rarely happened in the history of the Outer Court. Hence, Xiao Qi had always been glad to have a class leader like Lan Xuanyu. A good lead brought about the entire class’s sense of honor and mission.
The result was within Xiao Qi’s expectations, but he still had to go through this process.
“You guys are great, you’re all good kids,” Xiao Qi said sincerely as his eyes reddened.
“Lan Xuanyu!” Xiao Qi suddenly shouted.
Lan Xuanyu stood up immediately. “Yes.”
Xiao Qi looked at him with a burning gaze and said in a low voice, “As the class leader, you have to take responsibility. In the compulsory mission that is about to begin, I request that you bring all of them back in one piece. Safety is the most important. Even if the mission fails, you must return safely, understand?”
“Understood,” Lan Xuanyu said loudly. At this moment, he felt as though something in his heart had been ignited and a burning sensation surged within his body.
Xiao Qi turned to the others. “This is not only for him, but also for all of you. All of you are my students, just like my children. Of course, I hope that all of you will become heroes of the Federation in the future, but those heroes must be living ones. Understand?”
“Understood.” The entire class shouted loudly as though they wanted to release all the emotions in their hearts. The loud noise caused the entire Outer Court teaching block to tremble slightly.
Tang Zhenhua and Yin Luohong stood outside the classroom.
With a faint smile on her face, Tang Zhenhua said sincerely, “They’re all good children! If these children grow up, they’ll be amazing. They’ll definitely be much stronger than we were back then.”
“En. The academy has made ample plans for their growth. We will try our best to prevent any accidents from happening,” Ying Luohong said to Tang Zhenhua.
Tang Zhenhua said, “I just hope to complete all the Sky Wings quickly and prepare them for the children so that they can have more ability to deal with danger.”
“Yes, we will. The people from the Tang Sect are already here and you’ll be busy. Let’s work hard together. It’s rare to see you so motivated, let’s continue.” Ying Luohong nodded at him.
Tang Zhenhua rubbed his hands and said, “Luohong, then look, we…”
“That’s impossible.” Ying Luohong scoffed and her initial pleasant expression disappeared. She turned around and left, leaving Tang Zhenhua standing there with a lonely expression, speechless.
In the fourth-year classroom.
Xiao Qi got Lan Xuanyu to sit down again. “Since everyone has chosen to go on a mission, all of you must listen carefully to everything I say next.”
“The compulsory mission period refers to the fact that in the coming year, all of you must continuously complete the mission. You must prioritize the number of missions completed. Each person must complete at least six missions before they can be considered to have passed. In order to complete this year’s schoolwork, there are many different kinds of missions, with varying degrees of danger. There are group missions, team missions, and individual ones. Different levels of missions come with different rewards. Since the academy has allowed all of you to take the risk of completing them, they will also give all of you sufficient resources. As long as all of you can complete the mission, you will be able to earn emblems based on the mission completion status and difficulty when you return. This is much more than the rewards from the center.”
“If you can’t complete six missions or more within a year, you will be eliminated and have to leave the academy.” Xiao Qi’s expression turned grave when he said this.
“What I have to tell all of you is that in the past, during this process, the percentage of casualties was between 10 to 15 percent. And the proportion of people who were eliminated was over 20 percent. This means that in the previous years, more than 20 percent of the class had been eliminated. Naturally, they wouldn’t be able to graduate from the Outer Court.”
“I naturally hope that our class can create a miracle and that all of you will be able to your missions. But as I’ve said before, safety comes first. I would rather that all of you get eliminated in the future than have any safety issues. As the teacher-in-charge, I want to tell all of you that when faced with the completion of the mission or your safety, please choose to prioritize safety.”
Xiao Qi paused as a flash of recollection appeared in his eyes, along with a hint of pain. He seemed to have recalled some unpleasant experiences from the past.
Lan Xuanyu looked at him deeply. Six missions? One year wasn’t enough time. These compulsory missions would definitely be carried out on foreign planets and many of them were quite far away. It would take time to get there. Furthermore, if a few missions failed during the process, it was very likely that they wouldn’t be able to complete six missions.
The most difficult part of this compulsory mission period was probably time.
Xiao Qi spoke again, “For the specific details, you will receive them in the Mission Center building at the back of the Exchange Center. In the beginning, I suggest that all of you accept missions with lower difficulty. This is completely up to you to decide. But among the six missions to complete, there is an average difficulty requirement. The difficulty varies from level one to level nine. For the fourth years, the academy’s requirement is that the average difficulty of the six missions cannot be lower than level four. As we are in the Star War Experiment class, we have delayed it for half a year. That’s why your average is four instead of three compared to the previous years. Don’t consider the high difficulty missions, they are not something you can attempt. And compulsory missions also apply for Inner Court disciples every year. It’s just that they don’t have so many to do.”
Lan Xuanyu couldn’t help but ask, “Teacher Xiao, what are the requirements for the Inner Court?”
Xiao Qi said, “The requirements for Inner Court disciples are different depending on their age. Basically, they need to complete at least one compulsory mission every year. Those requirements are mainly based on the difficulty of the mission. The stronger one is, the higher the difficulty.”
Lan Xuanyu nodded slightly.
