15. Torch

Pan Tongguang knocked on the door of the principal's office.

Explain what happened during the opening test to Principal Zheng Siming.

He also expressed his concerns and offered to borrow an aura tester from the school to re-test the freshmen for the opening of the school.

Zheng Siming pondered for a moment, his knuckles tapping rhythmically on the table.

Said slowly: "Lao Pan, it's not that I don't help you, you also know how expensive the aura tester is now, and the school doesn't have any extra ones." Since the railway to Area 37 was interrupted, there has been a shortage of materials such as Golden Feather Worm and Thunder Beast Bone. Moreover, the policy of District 53 must first meet the needs of the military. ”

"Since we know that there is a problem with the instrument, we will deal with it according to all the passes, and it will be fine. Your academy, don't care too much about the level of spiritual power. Our school is one of the few schools that also offers traditional engineering and technology majors, and you should train talents who inherit the science and technology of the old era. Fight and kill or something, let other colleges do it. ”

Pan Tongguang was a little anxious, "Principal, I don't think there is a conflict between improving students' personal strength and learning traditional scientific knowledge. In this day and age, the strength is low and all aspects are discriminated against. And you also know that after the sophomore year, the cultivation resources are distributed according to the cultivation realm. ”

His face flushed and he continued, "Dean, I think this is too hasty. If it gets out, what will the students of other colleges think of my students? The students are all young and energetic, and they don't care for any reason, they just laugh at my students for being waste. ”

"As a principal, you know better than me that the opening test is not just about checking whether students are being replaced. It's still a way to test students' potential. After the college entrance examination, many students will continue to practice, and their spiritual power level will be higher than when they took the entrance examination. This is their chance to validate their efforts and prove their potential. ”

"Among the freshmen in this class, there are a few who have special potential, and if nothing else, the spiritual power level is much higher than that of the assessment. Give them a second test and give them a clear result. Prove that they're just bad perks, not waste. ”

Pan Tongguang gushed endlessly, which made Zheng Siming a little irritable.

Principal Pan Siming's striumph on the table gradually increased. He said categorically: "Dean Pan, the existing aura tester in the school has not been used many times. There is nothing extra to lend you! The 1119 freshmen of the College of Engineering and Technology passed all the entrance examinations. This is my opinion, listen to me! ”

Pan Tongguang still wanted to argue, but Zheng Siming's next words were like a basin of cold water pouring through his enthusiasm.

"Don't talk to me about potential anymore! Will potential freshmen choose the College of Engineering and Technology? All according to the pass, let them learn technical knowledge well, don't think about anything else! ”

Pan Tongguang pursed his lips, didn't say a word, and turned to leave.

……

In the lecture theatre.

Quiet, no one spoke.

Du Shaoyu hung his head in frustration, as if he saw the angry black-faced Pan Tongguang spreading his anger on himself.

Lu Xi felt a little guilty, and when he lost his mind, he made a mess, blaming himself for developing a problem of wandering in the world when he was in class before, and find a way to make up for his new classmates.

He looked at the freshmen sitting quietly in a row, what a lovely classmate.

Then he looked at the remainder and found that he was actually reading the book carefully, and he was still reading words, as if he was doing mental arithmetic.

Xueba, it's really not about the times, it's just about self-discipline.

……

Pan Tongguang returned to the classroom, empty-handed, but his face was darker, as if he had been burned by Director Han.

He patted the table and said, "I announce something, the 1119th class of the College of Engineering and Technology, all the freshmen have passed the opening test!" For some reason, it is not possible to retest, but everyone will be counted as a pass, and it will not affect the subsequent study and distribution of spiritual resources. ”

"Huh?"

"What about our opening test scores?" A freshman asked.

"Calculated according to the results of the entrance examination. Leave it the same! Pan Tongguang was expressionless.

The new student who asked the question had an unconcealable regret on his face, he practiced hard during the holidays, and his spiritual power level increased a lot, just waiting for the opening test to be a blockbuster.

Pan Tongguang's eyes swept over and saw a lot of disappointed faces.

He continued, "Tomorrow the first batch of cultivation resources and the fifth set of the middle stage of the Reiki Breathing Method will be distributed, and there will be no courses. Rest and adjust your condition. The day after tomorrow is the school's traditional orientation activity, 'Eliminate the Four Evils', which everyone should participate in. ”

Pan Tongguang was silent for a long time, his eyes were bright, like two rays of light shooting out of the dark wellhead.

"Students, I have something to say to you."

"When you enter the school, you should be mentally prepared to know what kind of college the College of Engineering and Technology is and what kind of treatment you will receive here. I even know that in my later study and life, I will be despised and ridiculed by others. ”

"But what I'm saying is that you're thinking too simply!"

"You're facing a situation that's worse than you can imagine."

"Don't expect fairness to come to you, other colleges, their future is better than yours, their teachers are better than yours, their dormitories are better than yours, and after your sophomore year, their cultivation resources are better than yours."

"You have to learn some old-fashioned, useless, and incapable knowledge that cannot improve your strength. can only squeeze out time to learn some elective courses that they are accustomed to, can only sneak into their classes, and suffer from their cold eyes. ”

"They enjoy your much better conditions. And laugh at you for being rubbish, garbage with no potential. ”

"Has anyone ever told you that the graduation rate of engineering and technology colleges is less than 40%, and every year many students can't stand it and choose to drop out."

……

"Frankly, most of you here have a draft of your destiny. All this was doomed at the time of the first awakening. You may have to do menial work and endure a bad life. Watching his former classmates slaughter in the herd of beasts and enjoying the admiration of tens of thousands of people. ”

"You may not be convinced, and you may not want to accept your fate. Isn't it Elemental Domain's fault with the ability trait? Is it wrong to improve your strength? ”

"There's nothing wrong, you're not wrong, it's the fault of this era."

……

"But there's hope."

"All of this bad is a reason for us to study science and technology."

"You may not know that before the revival of Reiki, more than a hundred years ago. Humanity went into space, right above the sky. No abilities, no martial arts. It's these old-fashioned techniques. ”

"You know, the history of human beings is more than 5,000 years old. The time for Reiki to revive is only a hundred years. From drinking blood to conquering the skies. Not by spiritual power, not by supernatural powers. It's wisdom. ”

"It's only been a hundred years, and some cultivators have a delusion. They feel that they are the hope for the future of humanity. There are even extremists who claim to be 'new humans', who want to draw a line with those of us who are not outstanding in their abilities, and do not admit that we are the same kind as them. ”

"It's ridiculous that we didn't have any abilities to get into space. Do they dare to go into the wilderness hundreds of kilometers away alone? ”

"Also, what if one day, the aura doesn't come back to life? What if there is no Reiki? Everyone is practicing Reiki, and no one is learning the science and technology of their predecessors. Are we going to do it all over again? Start drinking blood from Ru Mao again? ”

"Students, this is the meaning of our learning, inheriting the wisdom of hundreds of billions of human beings over a period of 5,000 years."

"Maybe what we learn doesn't have any effect in this day and age. There is no radio communication, there is no aerospace. We don't use everything we learn. ”

"But we can make seeds, we can make tinder. Pass on the wisdom of your ancestors until you can use it. ”

Pan Tongguang was emotional, and his heartfelt speech made him feel a little tired. Fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, like dew on black grapes.

He cleared his throat, "Finally, I hope everyone will ignore other people's words as Director Han Qingfeng said." Just go up, don't listen to the self-defeating people. Those who can do things do things, and those who can speak up can speak up. There is a point of heat, and a point of light. Even if it is like a firefly, it can also shine a little light in the dark, and you don't have to wait for the torch. ”

……

There was silence, followed by a torrential rain of applause.

The freshmen of the School of Engineering and Technology were extremely excited, their fighting spirit was high, and their blood vessels were blistering, and they felt that the responsibility of reviving humanity was on their shoulders, and they were eager to fight with "Advanced Mathematics" immediately.

The palms of the rest were red, and their eyes were red.

Even Lu Xi, who had heard countless chicken soups, entered an emotion, and he didn't even complain about Han Qingfeng's plagiarism.

The Faculty of Engineering and Technology, the first day of the new semester, is over.
