At that moment, Fang Ze had a completely different idea.
Through several confrontations with his mentor, he slowly realized that the mentor in front of him was actually a good person. It's just... a bit compulsive.
Perhaps because she couldn't stand to see students be distracted, she would invariably feel compelled to call on them whenever she noticed any student not paying attention.
It was the same when dealing with him.
Because she noticed his distractions, she would unconsciously feel the need to remind him.
Even though he was able to answer the questions correctly each time, after hesitation, she would still not overcome her own barrier, thus she would call on him again.
Even though she was continually proven wrong, did she worry that missing even one instance would cause a student to miss something important?
Fang Ze speculated about the mentor's thoughts.
He felt... maybe Mentor Qing Ya was right, this mentor really was a good person.
Thinking this way, Fang Ze no longer allowed his mind to wander and started to focus on the class.
Indeed, once Fang Ze stopped being distracted, "Master" paid less attention to him and started to focus on other students who weren't paying attention.
Soon, several students suffered a scolding.
Just like that, the class quickly came to an end.
"Master" announced the end of the class, then started silently packing up her lectern, preparing to leave.
The other students looked at her and then at Fang Ze, feeling that the battle had ended in Fang Ze's victory.
Just at that moment, to everyone's surprise, Fang Ze suddenly stood up and quickly walked to the lectern.
Once he reached the lectern, Fang Ze gave a smile to "Master" and said, "Mentor, I've come to apologize."
Upon hearing Fang Ze's words, "Master" couldn't help but look up at him.
Fang Ze knew that despite being influenced by his passive ability, the mentor's opinion of him wouldn't be totally terrible, but it certainly wouldn't be great either.
So, he cautiously activated his "Social Expert" ability and then slowly spoke, "Mentor, it was my fault for not attending class these past few days."
"As a student, I shouldn't skip class, be absent."
"However, I've actually been quite busy. You know, I took on a big case and there was a scheduling conflict."
"But, I really do enjoy your classes. So, whenever I get time, I study the textbook and recite the contents on my own."
"Over these few days, I've managed to memorize all three textbooks."
Hearing Fang Ze's words and sensing the sincerity emanating from him, "Master" initially froze for a moment, and then her opinion of Fang Ze began to shift a bit.
Could it be... she had really misunderstood this talented student?
Was he not dismissive of her and the theoretical lessons?
Was he genuinely busy?
And even during his busy schedule, he had memorized all three books?
With these thoughts, "Master" hesitated as well.
But after all, these were just Fang Ze's words, and no one knew if they were true. She couldn't just demand him to demonstrate something on the spot.
While she was thinking this, Fang Ze spoke again.
He said, "Also, mentor. I know you might not believe what I'm saying."
"I approached you also for another matter. I want to apply for the theoretical course test in advance!"
"My Awakening Ability level is almost meeting the requirements. Now, I only need to pass the theory class."
"I'd like to take the test early, so I can fully advance my Awakening Ability and graduate as quickly as possible!"
Hearing Fang Ze's words, this time not just "Master" but also the students below were all a bit stunned!
Applying to take the theoretical exam early.
Awakening Ability almost meeting the requirements.
Each of these statements, taken separately, would surprise anyone.
Especially the latter.
Fang Ze was different from the other reserve students. He held the position of a second-level Commissioner.
The Security Bureau required him to reach a high-level Awakener before he could graduate.
But remember, Fang Ze was just a junior Awakener when he joined the training center.
And now, he had been at the training center for just a few days? Not even a week? And he had already memorized the theoretical lessons and almost attained a high-level Awakening Ability?
"Master" had clearly realized this too.
She could not help but look at Fang Ze and asked, "You're already a high-level Awakener?"
Fang Ze smiled and responded, "Mid-level. But I'll be high-level very soon."
Tonight, Qing Ya would give him special tutoring. Even if he didn't want to seem too exceptional, advancing one Great Realm every two to three days was not so abnormal. By his estimates, it would just take about a week or so to move from junior to mid-level.
So, in saying so, he wasn't wrong.
Seeing Fang Ze so confident, "Master" took a deep breath then finally showed a somewhat forced smile, "Alright. I'll get everything ready. Come find me tomorrow, let's test you."
Who wouldn't love a genius student, especially one so talented!
Moreover, since he had personally come to clear the misunderstanding and offered to make amends, she was no longer upset, leaving only fondness.
Seeing "Master" react this way, Fang Ze knew his efforts had worked, so he smiled and nodded, "Thank you, Mentor!"
Soon, the story of this class began to spread throughout the entire training center and the Security Bureau.
"Master" had been teaching at the training center for over a decade, and her reputation as a stern instructor was well recognized.
Many Commissioners who had graduated from the training center seven or eight years ago still felt uneasy upon seeing her again.
However, Fang Ze managed to win her over in just a few words, and she didn't even resort to her usual scolding tactics, which surprised and baffled many Commissioners....
"Charisma! It must be Fang Ze's personal charisma!"
In Bai Zhi's office....Little Bai Ling was cutely nibbling on a chicken wing, gossiping about the incident with Bai Zhi beside her.
