The ever-changing star starts with a rice cooker.

That's how the matter was resolved.

It was even simpler than Ning Du and Wang Li had imagined.

Principal Zhu didn't say anything, just shook his head at Ning Du and Wang Li, and then left.

The homeroom teacher, Mr. Xu, urged the two of them to hurry up and go to morning reading.

But Ning Du was kept behind by Teacher Qin.

"Ningdu, there's an activity for the Awakening Class today, come with me."

When the homeroom teacher, Mr. Xu, heard this, he frowned slightly.

"It's still morning, not time for the Awakening Class yet. You still need to study academic subjects! Ningdu, you haven't chosen your major yet, have you?"

Upon hearing this, Ning Du shouted, "I've chosen! I've chosen! Guardian, Skywalker, World Traveler—any of them is fine with me! I've chosen!"

"Huh? When did you become a candidate?"

The homeroom teacher, Mr. Xu, looked puzzled; how come he didn't know about this?

Ning Du answered solemnly, "It was just now, I just made the choice."

The homeroom teacher, Mr. Xu, remained silent for a moment.

Teacher Qin Lu grinned.

After a moment, the homeroom teacher, Mr. Xu, said, "Are you sure? This is not a joke. Once you've chosen, you have to stick to your path; there's no turning back."

"It's confirmed, I'm absolutely certain!"

Ning Du's eyes were firm; he had made up his mind.

The homeroom teacher, Mr. Xu, waved his hand: "Alright, then I wish you success. But you can't completely neglect your academic studies. Go on, I'll help you fill out the forms."

"Thank you, Teacher Xie."

Teacher Qin Lu looked at Ning Du and said, "Then your training will have to be doubled from now on."

He patted Ning Du on the shoulder, and the two left.

Wang Li was incredibly envious, stomping his feet and shouting, "I want to be a Guardian too! Damn it, I must awaken! Brother Ning, you wait, I'll come find you. Wait for me!"

"good!"

Ning Du gave Wang Li a thumbs up and disappeared at the top of the stairs.

The homeroom teacher, Lao Xu, slapped Wang Li on the forehead.

"If you want to become a guardian, you need to awaken properly! This is all about fate! Read more books; reading opens your mind, and your chances of awakening will be greater. Hurry up and go in!"

Wang Li scratched his head, his eyes darting around.

Awakening through reading?

How far would one have to go to study? Many people study their whole lives and never awaken.

He would never do something so foolish!

His father seems to have a connection outside, although the risk is high, the probability is not low.

The saying goes, "Fortune favors the bold."

Wang Li gritted his teeth, stomped his foot, and did it!

A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity... no, I mean this kind of struggle!

……

Here.

Ning Du made the most important decision of his life, and was in a very good mood, his steps even becoming much lighter.

Teacher Qin Lu, standing nearby, smiled and said, "Walking this path is no easy feat. Injuries, pain, torment, risking your life—are you sure you can handle it?"

Ning Du answered loudly, "The worst that can happen is death, what's there to be afraid of? Besides, in today's society, it's not that easy to die."

"That's true! It's not easy to cultivate a powerful guardian like you; the Alliance won't just send you to your death. You have a bright future ahead of you!"

Teacher Qin Lu was also in a good mood.

She seemed to see a powerful guardian rising in the future.

Even if you can't kill the monster, you can still make it laugh to death, haha.

Ning Du scratched his head; he was now more concerned with specific issues.

"Teacher, is it easy to get into Guardian University? Is it very difficult?"

Teacher Qin Lu replied, "What's difficult for some is easy for others. Believe in yourself! Your teacher will help you. By the way, don't tell anyone about what happened today; it's not a good thing."

"What impact will it have?"

Ning Du didn't understand.

Teacher Qin Lu coughed lightly and replied, "It's about the time I scared that Mediterranean guy. Actually, guardians aren't allowed to duel with ordinary people."

After finishing her sentence, Teacher Qin Lu winked playfully.

Ning Du slightly opened his mouth.

"Huh? So that means you were just bluffing him? Holy crap, that works?"

Teacher Qin Lu laughed twice.

"What's wrong with that? Do you think ordinary people understand the rules and regulations of the Guardians? It's good to scare him a little, a little scare will prevent trouble. You can't really sneak into his house at night and beat him into submission, can you?"

Ning Du shook his head repeatedly, "I've learned something!"

All I can say is that I've learned something new!

The two chatted as they returned to the Awakening Class.

As soon as Ning Du entered, he realized something was wrong. How come half of the class was injured?

That guy's face was swollen like a pig's head. Senior Sister Li tilted her head, seemingly unable to straighten it.

Several others also looked dejected, not even bothering to greet Ning Du as he entered.

"What's going on?"

Ning Du asked aloud.

What happened to everyone in just half a day?

Were you in a car accident?

With his swollen, sausage-like lips, Biao explained to Ning Du.

"Don't even mention it. We were exchanging ideas with the awakened ones from No. 2 Middle School yesterday. Those bastards, they used dirty tricks! During the free-for-all, some fat bastard suddenly let out a black, stinky fart that filled the entire playground. Ugh, it was so pungent!"

"It's even an eyesore!" Senior Li chimed in.

"We were so sick we almost threw up, and then they ambushed us and beat us up like this!"

Brother Biao looked furious.

Senior Li continued, "But we're not to be trifled with either. Ah Biao and I teamed up and used a sensory amplification technique, and a bunch of them fell down!"

Ning Du's mouth gaped wider and wider. Although he hadn't participated, he could already imagine the scene.

That's so brutal!

Teacher Qin Lu clapped her hands and said, "Let's not talk about yesterday. We've tied with No. 2 Middle School. But they're still not satisfied and insist on a rematch. What should we do?"

The tall guy with big eyes stood up and shouted, "Kill them!"

Teacher Qin Lu continued, "What should we do if those guys from No. 2 Middle School dare to come this afternoon?"

Bing Xiaomei also stood up, saying, "They'll regret this!"

Teacher Qin Lu nodded in satisfaction.

"Alright, then it'll be the few of you going this afternoon. There's no other way, we really have no one else. Big Eyes, Little Beauty, Tall Guy, and Rice Cooker, you guys need to get to know each other quickly. It might be a free-for-all, or it might be one-on-one."

Ning Du finally understood what Teacher Qin meant and quickly spoke up.

"Teacher, they're coming this afternoon, can I go too?"

Pointing to himself, Ning Du couldn't believe it.

He, who had never participated in a single game, was about to fight No. 2 Middle School to the death right from the start?

That's so brutal!

Teacher Qin Lu comforted Ning Du, saying, "Don't be afraid. Their main force is finished too. The rest are just like us, newly awakened kids from the lower grades. I believe you can definitely win, especially you. As long as you successfully transform, even if you don't defeat them, you'll scare them to death!"

"They're more likely to laugh themselves to death."

Ning Du was a little flustered. He didn't like fighting, especially transformation fighting.

Teacher Qin Lu patted Ning Du on the shoulder. "Don't panic, you're just a substitute anyway. If it's a three-on-three match, you might not even need to play. Just learn from them!"

Ningdu swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

He suddenly felt that his choice of the path of the guardian might have been a bit too hasty.

Is it too late to take it back now?
