Elf: I asked you to take the college entrance examination, and you took out a modifier?

Chapter 70 Laboratory Report, National Researcher! (Large Chapter 6k)

"Are you..sure you want to choose the researcher major?"

Zhang Tianming looked at Yun Xiao in bewilderment, somewhat incredulous.

"Yeah, I'm sure, what's the problem?"

Yun Xiao's expression remained calm, as if all this was natural.

Zhang Tianming was silent for a moment and could only shake his head.

"No, that's no problem. You are free to choose any major."

...

Twenty minutes later, the door of the principal's office of Demon University was pushed open hastily by someone and hit the wall with a loud noise.

The person who came was Zhao Qingsong. Two buttons of his shirt were buttoned in the wrong place, and his beard was untidy, obviously he came here at the last minute.

"Principal Qin, something big has happened!"

He stood in front of the table, panting, and said with his back bent.

Qin Shuqi, who was pouring tea at the table, paused and frowned as he looked at Zhao Qingsong, somewhat puzzled:

"Teacher Zhao? If I remember correctly, shouldn't you be preparing for the freshman teacher meeting this afternoon? What's got you so flustered?"

Although Zhao Qingsong looks a little unreliable, he actually has excellent working ability. This is the first time Qin Shuqi has seen him like this.

"Huh...Huh...The meeting is nothing. Principal, do you know what major Yun Xiao chose today? He chose the researcher major! Researcher!"

Zhao Qingsong put his hands on the table and said excitedly.

Qin Shuqi didn't seem to expect this situation to happen and was visibly stunned.

"Damn it! This kid is the most talented student in our Magic University in recent years. We haven't had a champion in Magic University for more than ten years. I think he definitely has a chance, but now he chooses to major in research? What on earth is this kid thinking?!"

Zhao Qingsong was still speaking excitedly, with a look of anxiety on his face.

In comparison, Qin Shuqi seemed much calmer.

"Teacher Zhao, don't forget that he also got full marks in the theoretical examination."

Zhao Qingsong was choked when he heard this, and it took him a long time to speak:

"That's true... but he was still at the regular level during the college entrance exam, and he reached the elite mid-level level in his freshman year. With his talent and qualifications, if he doesn't become a trainer, I won't be able to sleep all night!"

There is naturally a reason why Zhao Qingsong is so anxious.

Choosing the trainer major and choosing the Pokémon research major are two completely different paths.

These two directions are completely conflicting. Once Yun Xiao chooses the scientific research major, he will have to spend a lot of time in the field of scientific research, and it will be impossible for him to continue to cultivate Pokémon as a trainer.

The full score in the theoretical college entrance examination can certainly prove that this kid has the qualifications to pursue a career in scientific research, but there are many researchers in China every year, and it is even a question whether there can be a superstar champion in a year!

He felt that with Yun Xiao's qualifications and talents, it would be a waste of talent for him to be a researcher!

"Principal, are you really not going to come out and persuade this kid? I just called him, but I couldn't persuade him."

Qin Shuqi said again.

However, Qin Shuqi seemed neither hurried nor slow. He picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"Old Zhao, I understand your feelings. It has been many years since our Demon University has produced a top trainer."

"But which path to take is ultimately his own choice, isn't it?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Zhao Qingsong deflated like a deflated ball.

That’s right...no matter which path Yun Xiao chooses to take, it is not something he and Qin Shuqi can decide.

After all, this is Yun Xiao's own life choice.

Just when Zhao Qingsong felt a little disappointed, Qin Shuqi said:

"Old Zhao, I don't think you need to worry. After all, the path of a researcher is not that easy to walk."

"He has already made so many achievements as a trainer. If he suddenly embarks on another difficult path and suffers a setback, it will be easy for him to turn around and go back to the original path."

When Zhao Qingsong heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Yes!

Since his persuasion was useless, why not use facts to make Yun Xiao change his mind?

If you choose the researcher major, the final examination of each semester will be much more difficult than the final examination of the trainer major.

Not only must you be familiar with and master a large amount of elf scientific research books and materials, you must also submit at least two qualified scientific research papers every semester!

The difficulty may not be very intuitive to explain, but according to statistics from the University of Magic, every year on average at least six out of ten students majoring in scientific research will choose to change their major or drop out.

Faced with such difficulties, if Yun Xiao encounters setbacks at the end of the semester, there is a high probability that he will face reality, give up this path, and go back to being a trainer.

Thinking of this, Zhao Qingsong felt a lot more relaxed.

"I understand, Principal Qin. I will go back and continue preparing for the meeting."

He nodded at Qin Shuqi, then turned and left the principal's office.

What he didn't know was that after he left, Qin Shuqi stood up from behind the table, paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, looking thoughtful.

After a while, he stopped at the window, took out his cell phone and dialed a number.

"Teacher Li, among the freshmen, the student named Yun Xiao has chosen the scientific research major. Did you know that?"

"Well, assign that person to him as a mentor."

"...He said he doesn't want to take on new students? Tell him this is my request. If he agrees, the research funding will be doubled."

"Okay, then I'll leave this matter to you."

...

The efficiency of the Demon University is very high. Not long after the class meeting ended, Yun Xiao received a text message.

[Moda: Dear student Yun Xiao, you have successfully entered the "Elf Research" major. The school has assigned you a tutor, Huang Ning. Please report to the laboratory 322 in the research building within half an hour.]

Yun Xiao was not surprised by the arrival of this text message.

The research department is different from the training department. There is no counselor leading an entire class of students, and the students go to different teachers' classes according to the schedule. Instead, a professor-level researcher leads several students to conduct experiments, issue tasks and review their papers.

As one of the top elf colleges in the country, although the research department of Magic University is not as advanced as that of Peking University, it is still top-notch in the whole of China.

Yun Xiao couldn't help but feel a little excited.

I don’t know what qualifications and background the professor who will be guiding me next will have.

However, ten minutes later, when he arrived at the research building and in front of the laboratory mentioned in the text message, he was stunned.

Because the front and back doors of the laboratory were locked and could not be opened at all.

But the lights in the laboratory were brightly on, and Yun Xiao could even hear the sound of machines running inside.

what's the situation?

He frowned, prepared to close his eyes and use the power of waveguide to explore the situation in the laboratory.

Just at this moment, a surprised voice came from behind him, interrupting his actions.

"Eh? Classmate, what are you doing here? This is Professor Huang's laboratory."

Yun Xiao looked back and found that the person who was talking was a young man about his age, holding a pile of information in his hands.

"My name is Yun Xiao, I'm a freshman, and I just chose my major today. The text message told me to report to this lab."

Yun Xiao explained.

The young man's eyes widened when he heard this.

"Are you sure you read it right? Your instructor... is Professor Huang?!"

After he said that, he seemed to realize something and quickly covered his mouth, looking a little panicked.

After a while, he leaned close to Yun Xiao's ear and explained in a low voice.

"I am also Professor Huang's student. My name is Liu Ziyang."

"Professor Huang is good in every way, except that he has a bit of a weird temper. Everyone calls him Crazy Huang."

"It is said that before me, five students had already been persuaded by him to drop out, and they couldn't even stick with it for a week."

"As for me, I have been working under him for a year. It was a very frightening year, and I was scolded a lot."

"If he hadn't been such a good teacher, I would have run away long ago. After all, he was once a top-notch national researcher."

Having said that, Liu Ziyang looked at Yun Xiao with sympathy.

"Junior, your luck...is really not that good."

"Hey, I advise you to report it to your superiors and change your instructor. Don't follow me and suffer here."

Yun Xiao was a little surprised when he heard this.

National researcher?

Researchers of this level can be called top researchers in the whole world. There are only 20 to 30 people in China who can get this title!

Does such a researcher need to be a professor at the Magic University?

"Come on, I'll take you in to see him."

While Yun Xiao was wondering, Liu Ziyang had already taken out a key from his waist, walked to the door, and turned around to remind Yun Xiao:

"After you go in, don't say too much. If Old Huang gets angry, I won't be able to protect you."

After saying that, Liu Ziyang opened the door and took Yun Xiao into the laboratory.

The laboratory is very large, about a hundred square meters at a glance, and is filled with various machines and equipment.

Unlike Yun Xiao's impression, this laboratory was not clean and tidy at all. All kinds of scattered materials and machine parts could be seen everywhere on the ground. There was also a strange smell in the air, which smelled a bit like motor oil.

Liu Ziyang walked with Yun Xiao for a while, then stopped in front of a small room and said hesitantly:

"Old Huang should be doing experiments inside right now. He... doesn't like people disturbing him at this time. Should we wait outside?"

However, the next moment, a vicissitudes and low voice came from the room.
