Above the mage!

Chapter 164 The First Person in Academic Style Construction

"Thank you for your concern," Gao De thought for a moment and replied, "I will try my best to pass all the course assessments."

He could see that Youlan simply had too much self-esteem.

Apart from that, he has no ill will towards me.

So he had no need and no desire to further provoke Youlan.

Besides, how can I put it? Before entering the academy, Youlan had always been a wild mage, raised in a wild way. Plus, he was still young, so it was normal for him to be full of energy for a while.

After he has received orthodox mage education from his mentor for a period of time, when he thinks back on this experience, he will probably have to cover his face and dare not look at it, and he will wish to seal it up as a black history.

Who hasn’t experienced middle school when they were young?

But Gao De's neither humble nor arrogant attitude was exactly what made Youlan most uncomfortable at that moment.

Keep on making harsh remarks, it makes you look like you are looking for trouble and are petty-minded.

Let's end it here, but it feels like a tiger's head but a snake's tail.

"Then we'll just have to wait and see. This time, I'll definitely be the first in freshman credits." You Lan's flushed face did not fade away. Under the gazes of other students, he became even more embarrassed. He could only say this and leave with his head held high.

Gao De shook his head helplessly.

But it is understandable. A 14-year-old boy has been promoted to the first ring before entering school. As soon as he entered the academy, he was accepted as a student by the head of the magic department. It is reasonable for him to be a little "arrogant".

Since all the people blocking his way had left, Gao De naturally had no reason to stay any longer, so he turned around and left the classroom.

The biggest effect brought about by You Lan's sudden appearance was that the news of Gaode's sixteen courses, which would have taken some time to spread among the students, quickly spread throughout the academy due to the presence of nearly thirty students on the scene.

This made Gao De once again experience the feeling of being frequently stared at by other students while walking on the street.

The last time was when he broke the enrollment task record.

But the last time this kind of attention lasted less than a week, it disappeared because there was no follow-up.

It's like an interesting piece of gossip, which makes everyone laugh for a while and then it's over.

But this time, it won't end so quickly.

Because everyone wants to know what happens next.

Everyone wants to know how many courses this freshman, who has taken 16 courses at the same time and is so arrogant, but actually entered the college through the back door of recommendation letters, can pass in the end.

And who will get the first place in freshman credits this time?

After all, Youlan had already declared war in person.

Gao De returned to his residence.

He sorted out the materials of the courses he had taken in the past few days, including textbooks and some notes, and then moved into the meditation room.

After calming his mind, Gao De silently cast a [Divine Guidance +] on himself.

The next moment, a cool air rushed into his mind and cleansed his mind.

In an instant, Gaode, who entered the flow state, felt his mind becoming active.

I opened the document and read it word by word.

At this moment, all the obscure knowledge accumulated in my mind from previous courses suddenly became clear.

The knowledge points began to connect with each other, a detail that Amap had never discovered before.

Even Gaode can draw inferences from one example and draw some conclusions from the experience.

He gradually became immersed in this deep learning, and before he knew it, he had already finished reading the materials of an entire course.

Afterwards, Gaode kept opening the materials of another course.

Time is ticking away.

It was not until an indescribable feeling of fatigue surged into his brain, replacing the cool feeling, that Gao De came to his senses.

The effect of [Divine Guidance +] has expired.

There is still some information that I haven’t finished reading, but Gaode didn’t continue.

Staying in the "flow" state for two hours without stopping will make you exhausted.

He stretched, stood up and went to the college cafeteria.

After intense energy consumption, there is an urgent need to replenish energy.

Because it was dinner time, the restaurant was busier than usual.

Gaode bought a simple meal worth 5 copper coins and chose an empty seat to sit down.

As a result, not long after the meal started, someone came with a dinner that was obviously much more exquisite than his and sat down in the empty seat opposite Goder.

"You spend all the money you earn on choosing courses and you don't even want to eat good meals." Goder looked up and saw that it was Jelica.

"Not really. The main reason is that I have too many classes to attend. I basically have no time to do the academy tasks to earn money. For the time being, I can only live off my savings, but I still have to save some money for cultivation, so I save as much as I can." He spoke the truth without feeling embarrassed at all.

"I heard that you are taking sixteen courses at the same time?" asked Jelica.

The news has spread, but Jelica still feels it is too fantastical, so she wants to confirm it again.

"Yes." Gode nodded, picked up a piece of potato from his plate, and put it into his mouth.

"Are you competing with Youlan for first place in credits?"

"To be precise, he is competing with me. I just want to be the top scorer, and I don't have to compete with anyone."

"If you had high credits, I would be competing with you for the first place in credits, not Youlan," Gao De added.

Well, luckily I didn't work hard enough and I can't pose a threat to you, right? Hearing this, Jelica took a bite of her steak fiercely, and after a while, she said:
"Youlan has chosen four more courses, and now he has taken seven courses."

"Not bad." Gao De praised sincerely. Before he mastered [Divine Guidance +], he only took eight elective courses.

"You should know that you are famous now." Seeing that Goder's reaction was completely different from what she had imagined, Jelica gritted her teeth and asked again.

"Yeah." Goder nodded.

As the news of his conversation with Youlan in the classroom gradually spread, the whole college became abuzz.

How could someone dare to take sixteen courses at the same time and compete with a fourteen-year-old first-level wizard for the first place in credits?

Everyone who heard the news, the first reaction was that Gaode was crazy.

But Gao De is not crazy. He behaves very normally, attending classes and practicing seriously every day. He looks so serious, which makes people pay more "attention" to him - he really makes it look like the real thing, and they want to see how capable he is.

Most people who pay attention to this matter have the same psychological activity.

"No student would ever take 16 courses at the same time, because it is impossible for a person to take care of so many courses with normal energy."

"Right now, not only the students, but also many instructors in the academy are waiting to see how many courses you can pass in the end."

"Some people even opened a betting site to bet on who will get the highest credits among freshmen this year." Jelica revealed a lot of information in succession.

These were things that Gao De, who had almost no "social" experience in the academy, was unaware of.

"What's the odds?" Gao De suddenly asked.

Jie Lika obviously didn't expect that after she said so much, Gao De's only concern would be this. She was stunned for a moment before answering: "Yu Lan pays one to one, and you pay four to one."

The person who opened the market was still very rational. Even though he was quite pessimistic about AutoNavi, he did not adjust the odds of AutoNavi to an exaggerated multiple.

"Jelica, you should be the student with whom I have the best relationship in the academy." Goder suddenly said seriously.

"Ah?!" This strange turn of topic made Jessica's brain freeze for a moment.

Gao De, who had already finished his meal, stood up and said, "As the saying goes, good things should be kept within the family."

"So, remember to press on me more." He grinned, leaving a sunny smile to Jelica.

Before Jelica could react, Gode had already turned and left.

After finishing dinner, Jelica left the restaurant and stopped at the door, hesitating for a moment.

She had to spend time preparing to be promoted to a 1st-level mage, and did not have much time and energy to study.

So Jelica had always planned to just get 10 credits before successfully getting promoted.

Later, because of Gaode's "roll", she "voluntarily" chose to take four courses.

But now Gaode has added an extra test, and students can take 16 courses directly. Yu Lan has also chosen seven courses now.

As a freshman, everyone else was working so hard, and she felt embarrassed to continue languishing like this.

After all, she entered Seres College with the highest treatment, so she still has her burdens. She can't fall too far behind the other two, right?

After thinking this way, Jelica finally made up her mind, took a step, and turned to walk towards the committee.

She wants to give herself extra lessons!
Committee, Office of the Chairman.

Su Sang, who has served as the chairman for 23 years, opened the materials submitted by his staff and reviewed them as usual.

At the beginning of the month, the main thing to look at is the “attendance rate” of each course.

Some courses with low attendance rates for several sessions may have problems with either the instructors or the course content, and will be considered for cancellation.

For those courses with higher “attendance rates”, we will consider adding one or two more sessions.

At Seres College, it is not easy for students to get by, and it is not easy for tutors to get by either. They must ensure that their courses are attractive enough to students, otherwise they will be eliminated.

Ok?
As Chairman Su Sang flipped through the book, he couldn't help but frowning slightly, as if he had discovered something surprising.
