Chapter 44 Tradition
The information from the other world gave Wang Tianyu a great shock.
It turns out that warriors receive special treatment, not just because of their powerful strength.
Because of the warriors' efforts, these special treatments are more like recognition and rewards for them.
All the freshmen on the field were digesting the information Zhao Zongyang threw out.
"High mortality rate, invasion from another world..."
Each of these things is more shocking than the other.
Zhao Zongyang also knew that the freshmen would definitely find it difficult to accept it for a while.
However, it is one of the school's traditions to declare to new students the responsibilities of a warrior upon admission.
After briefly explaining the crisis of humanity to the freshmen, Zhao Zongyang moved on to the next, slightly lighter topic.
Just as Zhu Sirun said, there is a fixed process for the admission of new students.
"We have three branches in Sichuan Province. They are: the combat branch, the medicine manufacturing branch, and the equipment forging branch."
"The students in the practical branch mainly study combat skills . They are the main force in resisting the invasion of the alien world."
"The Pill and Equipment Branch mainly teaches students how to make good pills and equipment. Pills and equipment are indispensable for warriors, so these two branches are equally important."
"Because they are responsible for logistics, the two academies of medicine and equipment manufacturing are relatively safer, and they don't have to go directly to the battlefield to kill the enemy."
"The Combat Academy is responsible for combat, and the other two are responsible for logistics. They each have their own duties. And because the Pill and Equipment branches are technical branches, the students of these two branches don't usually have to fight for their lives."
Wang Tianyu has a clear understanding of the three branches of the school.
Zhou Jing had told Wang Tianyu these things when they first entered school.
"Wang Tianyu, which branch are you going to?"
Zhu Sirun had never asked Wang Tianyu about this before.
Now it was time to choose a branch. Zhu Sirun looked at Wang Tianyu. He was very curious about which branch Wang Tianyu would choose.
"I'm going to the practical branch!"
Going to the practical branch was something Wang Tianyu had already thought about.
"clever!"
Zhu Sirun nodded to Wang Tianyu, indicating that Wang Tianyu had made a very correct decision.
Obviously, Zhu Sirun himself also planned to go to the practical branch.
In fact, the reason is very simple. When a warrior becomes stronger, there are many ways to obtain things like elixirs and equipment.
This principle is very simple and many people understand it.
As for what Zhao Zongyang said, there is no need to go to the battlefield or fight for life and death.
Hearing these words, Zhu Sirun shook his head.
When the nest is overturned, no eggs can remain intact!
Zhu Sirun is very clear about the strength of the other world. If he wants to avoid being bullied, he can only rely on his own strength.
What if one day another world breaks through the defenses established by humans?
Well, these so-called technical talents don’t even have the ability to escape.
"Before you make your choice, let me introduce to you the deans of the three major branches."
There are four people on the rostrum at the moment, three men and one woman, and the one who has been speaking is the principal Zhao Zongyang.
The remaining three are the deans of the three major branches.
At this moment, the deans of the three branches also straightened their bodies after hearing what Zhao Zongyang said.
"This is Sun Hengqiang, the dean of the practical branch."
After Zhao Zongyang finished speaking, the man on his left took a step forward.
The man had a crew cut and a stern expression that made him look intimidating without even getting angry.
Sun Hengqiang took a step forward, nodded at the freshman, and then stepped back.
"This is Huang Qinglan, the dean of the Alchemy Branch."
The dean of the Alchemy Branch is a little different. She is the only woman on the rostrum.
"Hello everyone, I'm Huang Qinglan!"
Compared to Sun Hengqiang's indifference, Huang Qinglan seems much more approachable.
Huang Qinglan has an outstanding temperament. She greeted the freshmen with a smile.
"This is Wang Yanguo, the dean of the Equipment Branch."
After Huang Qinglan returned to the team, Zhao Zongyang began to introduce the dean of the equipment branch.
Wang Yanguo is a very dark-skinned man with swarthy skin and a beard as thick as steel needles on his chin.
Coupled with his loose clothes, Wang Yanguo looked like a blacksmith.
"Hello, students. I am Wang Yanguo. Choosing our Equipment Branch is definitely not a wrong decision."
Wang Yanguo gave his branch a soft advertisement.
To be precise, Wang Yanguo's approach was not in compliance with the rules.
However, Zhao Zongyang knew the current situation of the Equipment Branch.
The Equipment Branch has the least number of people, and Wang Yanguo is under a lot of pressure.
Therefore, Zhao Zongyang did not stop Wang Yanguo's harmless little action.
"Okay, then, it's your turn to make a choice."
Freshmen who want to go to the Equipment Forging Department should stand to my right."
"Freshmen who want to go to the Pill Manufacturing Branch, please stand on my left."
"Freshmen who have chosen the practical branch, just stay where you are."
After Zhao Zongyang briefly introduced the information of the three major branches, he directly let the freshmen start making their choices.
Each branch needs to absorb fresh blood, but the school tradition is to let freshmen choose their own branches.
The school does not force new students to go to a certain branch.
Compared with the alchemy and equipment branches, Sun Hengqiang, the dean of the practical branch, seemed much calmer.
It is human nature to pursue power. Coupled with the threats from the external environment, most freshmen will choose the practical branch.
Like previous years, the first choice for this year's freshmen is also the practical branch.
Wang Tianyu took a rough look and saw that there were more than 200 people who chose the Alchemy branch.
Compared to the equipment forging branch, the alchemy branch is already considered good.
There were only about ten people standing in the equipment branch at the moment.
After all, the Alchemy Branch looks more prestigious, and many freshmen who don’t like fighting choose it.
Moreover, the dean of the Alchemy Branch is a woman, which makes more girls prefer the Alchemy Branch.
But the equipment department is in a terrible situation. Equipment forging sounds just like a blacksmith.
In addition, the dean himself looks like a blacksmith.
Therefore, no freshmen are willing to choose the Equipment Branch.
"Lao Wang, your situation is really miserable. Last year, there were about 50 people in the first wave."
Sun Hengqiang looked at Wang Yanguo, the dean of the Equipment Branch and said.
Sun Hengqiang was very serious when he said this, he was not making fun of Wang Yanguo.
As the dean of the practical branch, Sun Hengqiang certainly wants to have as many new students as possible in his branch.
The more new students there are, the more school resources you get.
Moreover, the practical combat branch is the main force in resisting the invasion of alien worlds. Facing alien creatures, the casualty rate of warriors is very high.
Therefore, Sun Hengqiang really needs fresh blood.
But Sun Hengqiang knew that it was not enough to rely on only one combat branch to resist the invasion from another world.
Just as President Zhao Zongyang said just now, each of the three branches has its own responsibilities, which will make human power stronger.
The Alchemy Branch manufactures elixirs, with the help of which warriors can practice faster.
When a warrior is injured, he also needs to rely on elixirs to quickly recover his strength.
The importance of elixirs to warriors is self-evident. It can be said that every warrior cannot do without the assistance of elixirs.
But is the equipment branch not important?
Of course not, students in the Equipment Department can make sharper weapons and stronger protective gear.
The improvement that equipment can bring to a warrior's strength can be said to be quite significant.
When warriors of the same level fight, the one with better equipment will definitely have the advantage.
After all, human energy is limited, and it is basically impossible for one person to be proficient in everything.
Sun Hengqiang hopes that more people will choose his practical branch, but he also doesn't want to see the other two branches ignored.
"I'm used to it. Our equipment branch is indeed not attractive."
Wang Yanguo stroked his beard, with an expression that showed he had let it go.
At this time, the number of people who originally chose the equipment branch changed again.
Maybe it's because there are not many people choosing this branch.
A few freshmen who were not very determined ran back to the queue of the practical branch quietly.
“There are only 9 people left!”
Wang Yanguo counted the number of people who chose the equipment branch, and currently only 9 people were still standing there.
Seeing this scene, Wang Yanguo's face darkened even more.
Although he said he didn't care, Wang Yanguo was still very concerned about the choices of the freshmen.
Wang Yanguo shook his head and sighed secretly.
However, Wang Yanguo still had a glimmer of hope in his heart, because there was still a "tradition" of Wuhan University to follow.
