To Robbins Schenker, today was a good day.
"… … 37% chance. It's a sunny day and I got a good draw today. I must perform well. "
In order to adapt to the various needs of talents in society, higher education institutions basically had a division of subjects. Although the teachers said that everyone was the same, in private, there had always been a distinction between popular and unpopular majors.
Popular majors were in short supply. Students who had yet to graduate had their entire classes booked. As for the unpopular majors … employment was equivalent to unemployment. Even the school was too embarrassed to announce their employment rate.
In a place like Starry Knight Academy, the Magic Armor Operation major that Rorschach studied was naturally popular. As long as one passed, there would be no problem in finding a job. The only thing that people complained about was that they couldn't find a job that had both good benefits and good potential.
To Robbins, who had already obtained his graduation certificate but didn't have a job offer, this was not only a waste of money, but also a little annoying.
"… Every day, they show off that they have received many job offers and complain all the time. What a bunch of wasteful people. Today, I must prove that our Cartography Department didn't study for nothing for six years!"
The Cartography Department was also a necessity in the new era. As the battlefield changed and became more complicated, the battlefield that Star Knights encountered had long developed from basic ground battles to ocean battles, underwater battles, aerial battles, and even atmospheric battles and extraterrestrial battles.
Regardless of whether it was war, exploration, adventure, tourism, the mapping of sea routes, or the construction of geographical models of battlefields, the collection of information was very important. This was especially so for large-scale battle groups. They had never slacked on the collection of battlefield information.
In order to map out a realistic geographical model, this major had to learn a lot.
For example, if one wanted to map out armies and large battlefields and build 3D models, one's sense of space and location were very important. One also had to learn a lot of unconventional "common sense". For example, how to avoid whirlpools in the ocean, how to map out the direction and changing trend of the ocean currents, how to judge the changes in wind direction, tides, and waves … This was just the situation of the ocean. For the universe, the underground, the volcanic belt, and so on, the tutorials for each course were so thick that they could be used as weapons.
If one wanted to build a trade route, one also had to consider the safety line and cost. One also had to understand the danger level and habits of the animals along the way.
"What the hell are our courses! Most of them are liberal arts. Did we enter a fake Starry Knight Academy? "
Looking at the large pile of teaching materials, most of the freshmen were dumbfounded. He was only a freshman, and there were already two tables of Heavenly Book teaching materials.
"Even ghosts won't come to learn. Stop complaining. If you have the time, why don't you read more books and work hard to graduate?"
His seniors and senior brothers were all very realistic. Because the teaching materials were too difficult and too complicated, and many things had to be explained orally, there was a tradition in this profession, which was to teach one-on-one tutorials.
What if the number of people is wrong? Hehe, the Star Cavalry Academy tried to break through the double digits in the number of third-year students every year, but they failed every year. Even if the number of senior students was lacking, there would still be some left after each of the teachers teaching these courses.
Why a third-year student? This was because more than 67% of those who dropped out before finishing their first year were eliminated. In the second year, there was another 15% who were eliminated again. Only then would the third year students be treated as new students by their senior brothers and tutors.
Then, after working so hard for so many years and graduating with excellent results, wouldn't that be great? Walking to the pinnacle of life and marrying a fair, rich, and beautiful woman?
"You're thinking too much. The employment rate of our graduates back then was less than 20%. Most of our jobs were in supermarkets, bars, and other jobs that had nothing to do with our majors. The road ahead is long. Just endure it slowly. "
"As long as you persevere, there will be a day when you'll succeed."
"… That won't happen. It's just that you'll endure until you get used to it, then endure until you feel despair, and finally endure until you're numb to it. Endure for 30 years until your beard grows and your hair turns white. It's possible that you'll succeed one day. Yep, it's possible. "
Luo Binsi could still remember the stupefied look on his senior brother's face when he said this. That was a look of enlightenment after seeing through everything. That was a Buddhist glow that no longer held any expectations.
"Senior brother, you're really strong."
"Hehe, so what if I'm not strong? This is the truth … So, in the second half of the year, I'll be going back to inherit my family business with millions of assets."
In an instant, the Buddhist smile turned into a sinister smile. If it wasn't for the fact that he probably wouldn't be able to win, Luo Binsi would have rushed up and beaten him up.
Was this subject useful? Of course it was useful. Knowledge was priceless. Many of the experiences and information were things that couldn't be bought with money in other planets or worlds. Once one learned it, they wouldn't be able to go anywhere else.
Was this subject important? Of course it was important. There was no need to repeat the importance of information. Most of the time, precious information was right in front of one's eyes. However, one lacked sharp enough eyes and the knowledge to see through the surface and see the truth.
Did this subject have a future? Of course it did. If one could open up a trade route for a merchant group, create a map for an exploration team, or construct a natural ecological network for an unknown area, all of these would be great benefits, great fame, and great rewards for one's life.
But obviously, these things had nothing to do with a small fry who had just graduated.
This was just like a dragon-slaying technique. It was powerful, but there weren't many opportunities to use it. But as long as there was an opportunity to use it, it would definitely be a major event.
However, nobody would be willing to give such an important opportunity and major event to a newcomer. That was why it was necessary to gain experience. Not only did one need to gain experience, one also needed to continuously study and produce results to prove one's ability. Only when one reached a relatively high level would it be possible to have work entrusted to them. Only then would they be able to instantly become famous and soar to the heavens.
At the very least, one had to be qualified as a star level surveyor with a passing rate of two decimal points. Basically, in any world, one could be called a master.
It was just that the reference qualification was a scholar. It was a bit too much. However, the future was bright, and the demand had always been there. This was also the reason why this subject had not been canceled until now.
Perhaps one wouldn't be famous in one's lifetime, but many who were famous were at the level of leaving their names in history.
It sounded good, but how many people were willing to invest half of their life into an unknown journey and gamble on the future?
Therefore, it was natural that the candidates who applied for the exam would innovate at a low rate every year. There were many who gave up midway. However, those who really persevered were not because of the initial professional assignment or the idea of getting a diploma. Only those who really liked this profession and liked the tedious knowledge and theories would do so.
Since they liked it, they shouldn't regret it.
Luo Binsi was such a person. His senior apprentice brother, Kahn K. Tyr, was also such a person. Luo Binsi also knew that his senior apprentice brother's reason for giving up wasn't so simple. What was there to regret after persevering for 20 years? He had left his hometown and given up on studying here. Wouldn't giving up at this time be the same as denying the first half of his life?
Kahn's senior apprentice brother had to go back because of some unforeseen circumstances in his family. He had joked about going back home and inheriting his family's wealth. Kahn's senior apprentice brother's heart was probably filled with unimaginable pain.
"… Even if it's for the sake of senior apprentice brother Kahn who's watching the competition from below, even if this isn't a suitable stage for us, I still want to prove that our profession isn't inferior to those boorish Star Knights."
And so, a student from the logistics major signed up to participate in the actual combat.
And, what was inconceivable was that in the first half of the competition, this student actually managed to enter the top 10 overall rankings. With his own strength, he suppressed the entire Star Knights team.
