Arranged by the Special Affairs Group, on the plane returning to Yanking, Qin Chuan took out a battle axe that was one and a half meters long and handed it to Ji Huai.
"Mr. Ji, this equipment doesn't really suit me, so I'm giving it to you."
Ji Huai glanced at Qin Chuan, took the axe, and his expression changed slightly after checking the equipment's information, "Red-quality?"
Dragon Halberd and Feng Yin, who were on the same plane, both turned their gaze over.
"I already have another piece of red-quality equipment," Qin Chuan smiled, "Besides, I don't know how to use a battle axe. Even though I could gain the equipment's benefits, I wouldn't be able to unleash its full power."
The item he handed to Ji Huai was, of course, the red-quality equipment he acquired after conquering the Mysterious Tower, Lanso's Battle Axe.
A one and a half meter long battle axe that could be wielded with ease in the hands of a warrior from the Dwarf Demon Clan standing only one meter tall would surely shine in the hands of Weapon Master Ji Huai.
Ji Huai, with his uninjured hand, weighed the battle axe and after a moment of thought, nodded, "Consider it a loan from me."
His current inability to use Spirit Descent and having just broken through to Hall Level, he found it somewhat difficult to conquer an A-class instance with only one hand.
Having a usable red-quality equipment would be a great help.
Envy was becoming increasingly difficult to hide on the face of Dragon Halberd nearby.
That was a red-quality equipment!
The entire Special Affairs Group didn't even have one!
"Right, Yan University's Extraordinary Practical Combat Major officially started classes today, didn't it?" Feng Yin suddenly spoke up, then turned to look at Qin Chuan, "Foreign Transcendents secretly filmed your combat footage. After fermenting all day yesterday, your real identity has been thoroughly exposed."
"We did our best to hide some information that only internal members of the Special Affairs Group would know, but those things known to others could still be uncovered by those with intent."
"So, I'm afraid your university life won't be low-key anymore."
"Yeah," Qin Chuan nodded, a hint of helplessness on his face.
He had initially planned to keep a low profile at university.
He hadn't expected his progression in strength to no longer allow him that luxury.
In a classroom of a teaching building at Yan University, dozens of students sat together, grouped in threes and fours, curiously sizing up their classmates.
This was the entirety of the Practical Combat Five class.
Since enrollment occurred early and they skipped the step of getting to know each other in the class group, even though they had been on the Yan University campus for a day or two, they were most familiar with their respective roommates.
Even who their classmates were was unclear.
Today was the first official day of classes. Last night, they received a school notification to gather in a designated classroom, but what they were to do next, they were a bit unsure.
In a corner of the classroom, Du He'an, Zhou Xiaochen, and Yu Zhao sat together, purposely leaving an empty seat reserved for someone who hadn't arrived yet.
"Do you guys think Qin Chuan will come to school today?" Zhou Xiaochen looked around and asked in a low voice.
"I read on the Dream Realm Forum that the battle in the video yesterday happened in Indonesia," Du He'an whispered, "It'll probably be a few days before Qin Chuan returns."
As the two were talking, two boys in the row in front of them suddenly started arguing. Their voices were somewhat loud, and the content related to Luo, who had garnered much attention these past days, instantly quieted the entire classroom.
"You're saying Luo is at Yan University? And a new student in the Extraordinary Practical Combat Major? Impossible!" One of the boys shook his head without hesitation, "What's Luo's strength? Why would he need to be a student?"
"Even if he were teaching in the Extraordinary Practical Combat Major, that would be a waste of talent, right?"
"I don't buy it. This news is too fake."
"It's true!" the other boy's face turned a bit red from urgency, "I have a senior who was a volunteer at the new student orientation, and Luo completed his registration process with him."
"And I checked the Yan University campus forum, indeed many people said they saw a student who looks very much like Luo at Yan University."
"Confucius said, 'Among any three people walking, I will find something to learn for sure.' One's Extraordinary Value doesn't represent everything, practice in Extraordinary Theory and Combat Skills have an immense effect on one's strength. I've looked at our course schedule, and these are the key contents we will be studying over the next four years."
"Having great strength as well as a humble attitude to learn, that's my idol!"
This male student seemed to greatly admire Luo, and when he said the last sentence, his demeanor was rather excited.
Their argument also prompted the rest of the classmates to start discussing in low voices.
Du He'an and his friends looked at each other, but remained silent.
Listening to others discuss their roommate in such reverent tones, they felt a sense of vicarious pride. Before telling their classmates that Qin Chuan was in Practical Combat Five, they at least wanted to let themselves enjoy this peculiar sense of joy for a while longer.
"The discussion is quite lively, huh." A hearty voice came from outside the classroom, and soon a young man strode into the classroom and stood at the lectern.
The students quieted down upon seeing this.
"Before coming, I was worried that everyone might be a bit distant due to not being familiar with their classmates, but it seems my worries were unfounded," the young man chuckled, "Let me introduce myself. My name is Ren Jie, and I'm the instructor of Practical Combat Five."
"You can think of the instructor as a part-time senior who assists with managing the freshman class."
Hearing this, the students relaxed a bit, with many starting to call out "Senior."
"We're on a tight schedule, so I won't waste much time with chitchat," Ren Jie waved his hand, "Ordinarily, there should be a round of introductions for everyone's first meeting, but the Extraordinary Value Test for the Extraordinary Practical Combat Major is coming up soon, so we'll save that for later."
"In half an hour, the Extraordinary Value Test will begin," he checked the time, "I'll do a roll call first, then explain what the Extraordinary Value Test is, and after that, we need to head to the testing site."
Saying this, he took out a list of class members and began the roll call.
During registration, students were informed of their classes and dorms by scanning a QR code and entering their student IDs, without access to a complete list of their classmates' names.
Consequently, the names and faces of those present were unfamiliar to each other.
The roll call was also a process for getting to know each other.
Shortly after the roll call was complete, Ren Jie put away the list, smiling, "There's one more student who couldn't be here for special reasons, so let's not wait for him."
"Next, let's talk about the Extraordinary Value Test."
"Thanks to the efforts of the Yanhuang Engineering Academy, a device that accurately measures Extraordinary Value has been developed, and the first-generation product has been officially put into use, which will be used in your test later."
"Despite having class divisions, some later study arrangements have certain strength requirements and are not organized by class but rather according to the Extraordinary Value."
"That is the purpose of the Extraordinary Value Test."
