Unlimited priesthood

Chapter 32 Class
The next morning, Shen He left the dormitory and began his long-lost campus life.

High school courses can be divided into two categories: main subjects and minor subjects.

However, the main and minor subjects are not fixed, they are just relative main and minor subjects, so that the time can be staggered to avoid conflicts in class scheduling.

For example, if Shen He chose martial arts as his main subject, then his secondary subject must be a non-cultivation subject, such as mechanics, medicine, biology, etc., because according to the course schedule, cultivation and non-cultivation courses will be alternated.

If your main and secondary subjects are both cultivation-related subjects, there is a possibility of overlapping classes. In the end, you can only take one subject and will inevitably miss the other one.

Although Shen He did not make this mistake, he chose another cultivation course in addition to these two subjects.

So he had overlapping classes on the first day. The martial arts class and the cultivation class were held at the same time, and he could only choose one of the two.

Finally, he skipped the martial arts class and came to the cultivation class.

"Hello everyone, I am your cultivation teacher - Li Baiyun!"

An old man in a white robe and with a gaunt face came on stage and introduced himself.

Shen He glanced around the classroom and found that there were more than a hundred people listening to the lecture.

So many cultivators?
No.

Classes are classes, and cultivation is cultivation. Those who attend cultivation classes are not necessarily cultivators. They may also...

"Cultivation!"

"This is a cultivation system and also a career path."

Li Baiyun began to explain on the stage: "It originated from the original place, the sacred Holy Planet of the Empire. It is centered on the Taoist concept of the unity of heaven and man. It absorbs the spiritual power between heaven and earth, commonly known as spiritual energy, for cultivation, and ultimately reaches the realm of immortality."

“To enter this system, you must meet one requirement.”

"Spiritual roots!"

Li Baiyun tapped his teaching stick, and light and shadows began to flow behind him, forming a diagram of the human body structure.

"This is a necessary qualification for cultivation. It is hidden in the Niwan Palace, which is the brain. However, it is not a human organ in the conventional sense. Instead, it is a special substance between reality and illusion, similar to the spirit."

"It can serve as a medium to help people absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, and thus embark on the path of cultivation."

"So, it is a necessary qualification for cultivation, and also a hard requirement for those who want to change their profession."

Li Baiyun shook his head and looked at the hundreds of people listening to the lecture. "But this spiritual root qualification is extremely rare, truly one in ten thousand."

As soon as these words were spoken, many people in the hall showed gloomy expressions, and some even clenched their fists.

"However, nothing is absolute in this world. After hundreds of thousands of years of research, the Empire has successfully developed artificial spiritual roots and items for cultivators to change their professions. As long as you can afford it, even if you don't have spiritual roots, you can still change your profession to become a cultivator."

Li Baiyun comforted them, but the people in the hall were not very happy, because everyone knew that artificial spiritual roots and cultivation items were not something that ordinary people could afford.

Li Baiyun shook his head. "Even if you can't become a cultivator, I still suggest that you attend more cultivation classes, as well as Taoism classes, Buddhist Dharma classes, and wizard classes, to understand the abilities of these professions. After all, you can't guarantee that you won't encounter such an enemy!"

"Now let's learn the first concept of cultivation - spiritual energy!"

"..."

Shen He was sitting in the hall, also concentrating on his studies.

His parents had tested him long ago and found out that he did not have the "spiritual roots" to become a cultivator. He could not absorb spiritual energy through conventional means and become a cultivator.

But this did not prevent him from sitting here and listening to the lecture.

As Li Baiyun said, you might not become a cultivator, but your enemies might be cultivators. Understanding their various methods wouldn't hurt, and it would also be useful in emergencies. Furthermore, as a time traveler, he possessed the ability of Zhuang Zhou's dream butterfly, and might be able to travel through time into the body of someone with spiritual roots, generate a cultivation career path, and then transmit it back through the Myriad Paths Fruit, allowing his original body to break free from the limitations of their spiritual roots.

If it really doesn't work, you can also consider artificial spiritual roots and cultivation items. The road is not completely blocked.

Finally, he also has the Swallowing Yuan Gong. The nature of this technique is very special. Even without spiritual roots, one can still achieve some success in practicing it. In the end, there may be hope of becoming a cultivator.

To sum up, Shen He has too many reasons to attend the cultivation class. If he were not limited by his spiritual roots, he would even want to take cultivation as his main subject.

The cultivation system is so powerful that even a popular cultivation profession like the [Qi Refiner] can trample on ordinary martial arts professions.

Because it was the first cultivation class in the first year of high school, the content was not very deep. It was all basic things, some of which could even be found on the Internet, but Shen He still listened with great interest.

In this way, the class ended, Shen He got up and left the classroom, went to the cafeteria to have lunch, and then went back to the classroom.

In the afternoon, there were elective courses, including one on mechanics which he had chosen.

Science and technology are the primary productive forces!
Compared to machines, human power is far inferior, at least in general.

Shen He has the ability to travel through the heavens and the ambition to make great achievements in the heavens and all realms, so he cannot do without various technologies, especially those machines that have no restrictions on cultivation and can be learned and used by ordinary people. They can be called powerful weapons for developing power.

So, he chose mechanics as his minor subject.

"Mechanics!"

"When you hear these three words, isn't your first thought steel? Think of various devices made of steel, spaceships, warships, and even mechas?"

"This is only a superficial understanding. The core of machinery is the application of all things in the world. Steel is just one of them. As long as they can produce the desired effect, wood, stone, and sand are all materials for the machinery."

The gray-haired mechanics lecturer smiled faintly. "I know that a big reason you choose mechanics is because of the good job prospects. Even if you join the military, you can work as a technician in a factory behind the scenes, screwing screws instead of fighting on the front lines."

"But I want to tell you that the future of us mechanical professionals is not as simple as just working in a factory and screwing screws. We can also compete with the cultivation professions and combat professions. Whether in lifespan or combat power, we are not inferior to others."

"Among the empire's ultimate professionals, there are several who represent the ultimate existence of machinery. They are the pillars of the empire, and each of them has the power to slay gods and demons."

"So, students, don't be discouraged, and don't underestimate the mechanical profession. Our future is extremely broad and our prospects are extremely bright..."

At 5:10, Shen He, who had drunk half a belly of inspirational words, walked out of the classroom and headed to the cafeteria. He opened his personal terminal and started a video call with Zhong Qin.

"How about it?"

Zhong Qin's portrait popped up vividly: "How was your first day of class?"

Shen He smiled: "Not bad."

"I knew you would say that."

Zhong Qin shook her head and changed the subject: "How are you thinking about joining the Xingyi Society?"

Shen He smiled and said, "I can join, but there are a few conditions."

"condition?"

"How many more?"

Zhong Qin looked at him suspiciously: "Tell me about it?"

"Let's talk about it when we meet. I'll wait for you in the restaurant."

"..."
