The Queen of Scrolls never admits defeat

Chapter 812 Three Thousand Mirror Ruins 79
Mei Ye did a quick mental calculation: "The total class time for all these courses is more than enough to fill five years of your life! Aren't you planning to leave the school and go to the Mirror Space for practical experience?"

This is the other extreme, preparing to completely immerse oneself in a sea of ​​theory.

Moran shook her head; she had already prepared her reason: "Teacher, I've checked, and these courses all have an 'individual teaching' option. At my learning speed, I should be able to finish them all before graduation."

She paused, then added, "Moreover, there will be many more opportunities to explore the Mirror Space after leaving school, but it will be hard to find another opportunity to learn these courses so systematically."

The unclaimed mirror space was her real goal. The mirror spaces within the school that had owners held little appeal for her, as the mirror beast materials inside could be obtained through trading.

The knowledge gained in school is something you can only acquire once you've had it.

"..." Mei Ye thought the child was talking nonsense.

With so many courses, even just attending them once would require a massive investment of time and energy. How could anyone possibly finish them all, let alone master the knowledge?
However, it must be admitted that her judgment on the value of the courses was very accurate; they were indeed knowledge that is extremely difficult to acquire systematically after leaving school.

In the end, Mei Ye could only remind her, just like she had done to Qu Luo, "...If you find that the course pressure is far beyond your capacity, remember to make choices in time. Don't bite off more than you can chew."

She then picked up Moran's monthly study schedule and was stunned again—in stark contrast to the thick stack of course selection forms, the study schedule was only a thin page, and the arrangement on it was outrageously simple, almost summed up in one sentence: attend classes all day, borrow relevant books from the library after class, and study on your own in the dormitory at night.

There's no indication of rest, meditation, or meal times on this schedule, suggesting that time must be squeezed in.

Mei Ye looked at the two students in front of her. One wished he could stay in the Mirror Space forever and never come back. As soon as the instruction class ended, all his schedule revolved around exploring and adventuring in the Mirror Space. The other wished he could stay at the school forever and never go out. He was full of desire for knowledge and was either in class or on his way to the library to borrow books.

The two promising students in this year's gifted youth program have gone to two completely opposite extremes.

She rubbed her temples, sensing that her future guidance work would probably not be easy.

Fortunately, the two students were in the same year, were of similar age and ability, so they could learn from each other.

"Your plans and priorities are completely different, each with its own logic, but also its own biases."

Theoretical knowledge needs to be tested and digested through practical experience, and practical experience also needs to be summarized and improved through theory.

How about this, from now on, you two will have one formal sparring match each month.

"Great!" Moran was eager to try.

Qu Luo seemed to have heard something extremely terrifying; she shook her head like a rattle-drum, her hands waving nervously, "No, no... Teacher... I..."

Mei Ye assumed Qu Luo's protests were due to her personality and dismissed them as mere suggestions: "This isn't a suggestion, it's a rule. The match can take place in the school's common training room, and I'll be there to supervise."

The purpose is to allow you to verify what you have learned and discover your own shortcomings.

"Mo Lan, what you learn in class needs to be mastered through real-world confrontations; Qu Luo, the experience you accumulate in the Mirror Space also needs to be digested through opportunities."

Qu Luo: "!!!"

Help! She cried out silently in her heart. The teacher simply didn't understand!
She only knows how to blow the enemy's head off, but she doesn't know how to spar with her classmates!

What if… what if she lost control of her strength? What if she subconsciously used a deadly move? Just imagining that scene filled her with a suffocating panic. Looking at Moran's enthusiastic expression and feeling Teacher Mei Ye's unwavering determination, Qu Luo was almost overwhelmed by immense despair. She wished she could dig a hole in the ground and bury herself completely, never having to face the "disaster" a month later.

The mirror in classroom 307 rippled again as Moran and Qu Luo walked out one after the other.

Moran walked briskly, already thinking about contacting the course instructor and scheduling a class.

Qu Luo, who was following behind her, seemed to have all her energy drained away. Her steps were heavy, her face was droopy, and she exuded a visible low pressure and anxiety. It was as if she had not just received orientation, but had been sentenced to a one-month suspended sentence.

Just as Qu Luo was immersed in deep fear of the future "sparring," Moran, who was walking ahead, suddenly slowed down and turned around:

"Hey, Qu Luo! When you went to the Mirror Space, could you sell me a copy of all the Mirror Beast materials you hunted and the magical plants you collected? I'm super interested in researching these things!"

She had just glanced at Qu Luo's course selection form and knew that she was very interested in exploring the Mirror Space. She was just missing someone to help her provide materials.

This suggestion briefly pulled Qu Luo out of her "battle nightmare".

Selling materials?
Qu Luo, who had been keeping her head down, subconsciously raised her eyes slightly upon hearing this, glanced quickly at Mo Lan, then quickly lowered them again, and nodded gently, giving an almost inaudible "hmm".

Seeing that she had agreed, Moran smiled even more broadly: "Then it's settled! Happy to cooperate!"

"I'm going back to my dorm now."

Without waiting for Moran's response, and not daring to look at her again, Qu Luo hurriedly activated the teleportation function of the mirror emblem.

Swish!
The spatial fluctuations vanished in an instant, and her figure disappeared from the spot.

"...They run really fast." Moran looked at the empty corridor and couldn't help but chuckle and shake her head.

This new classmate's level of social anxiety far exceeded her expectations.

However, securing a stable source of materials was a pleasant surprise.

Moran was in a good mood, activated the mirror emblem, and returned to her dormitory.

Upon her return, she immediately threw herself into the intense work of "back-to-school preparations".

She moved a desk directly to the mailbox in the mailroom and wrote to the teachers of the courses she was interested in, one by one, according to the classroom mailbox addresses attached to each course, to schedule class times.

Many freshmen are probably still getting to know the school, and it's not yet peak time for course selection, so the teachers' replies arrived quickly.

Moran filled in the confirmed class times into her schedule, like a jigsaw puzzle, precisely filling every free daytime slot.

When she finally stopped pointing, she looked at the densely packed timetable with almost no gaps and nodded in satisfaction.

"Done!" She breathed a long sigh of relief and leaned back in her chair.

For the next week, she will spend her days moving between different classrooms or training grounds, engaging in in-depth one-on-one learning with various teachers.
