BXBX NOVEL Chapter 84: Sophomore
However, next year, he would watch the entrance exam for sure since his little sister would be participating.
Speaking of Maia, she was currently training very hard because Shye already gave her the elixirs and skills so she felt motivated to train harder than ever.
Her regular training hours were around 8-10 hours a day, six times a week but now, she trains for at least twelve hours a day, six times a week because she made it her personal goal to try and grab the number one spot in the scout course entrance exams.
On the other hand, Shye was also busy training himself and he was just like Maia, very motivated to train but his motivation stems from his vow to avenge his seniors who recently graduated.
In addition to this, he wanted to make the entire academy proud by hopefully defeating some big-name academies and grabbing at least one of the top three spots in the Adventurer Academy competition three years from now.
By now, Shye has become adept at solo adventuring and he has already developed some strategies on how to stay safe every night even while sleeping soundly.
It wasn\'t only him who was training hard, his future teammates, the first-year companion students, were also training very hard because the humiliation suffered by Colzen Academy was also engraved in their hearts.
They didn\'t want to experience anything like that so they vowed to grow stronger and defeat the top tier academies.
Days passed just like this and after two weeks, it was finally time for Shye\'s first day as a sophomore.
Shockingly, even though he got back late from adventuring yesterday inside the intermediate adventurer zone, he was able to wake up early.
He quickly prepared breakfast, took a bath, wore his sophomore uniform, and left his dormitory.
On the way, he saw many new faces wearing freshmen uniforms so he couldn\'t help but reminisce about his first day as a freshman at Colzen Academy.
Unfortunately, his nostalgic thoughts were cut short once he arrived in front of their classroom which was now located in a different building so it finally hit him that he was now a sophomore student.
Upon entering the classroom, Shye saw the familiar faces of his classmates and heard their familiar morning greetings and it made him smile warmly.
"Haaah...How nice would it be if this could last forever..."
Shye thought to himself.
His graduation ceremony experience gave him a wake-up call that all of this is temporary and that he should cherish these relationships while he still has a chance to.
He then turned his head, looked at his girlfriend, Shirley Locke, and sat right next to her with a slight smile on his face.
On the other hand, Shirley was confused, she didn\'t know what was going through Shye\'s thoughts and all she felt was that today was just like any other class day albeit a little special since it was their first day as a sophomore.
"Hmm? You look happy today, did something happen?" Shirley asked with a curious expression on her face
"Oh, nothing, I\'m just in a rarely good mood today" Shye replied
By this time, everyone already knew that they were a couple so although their classmates were slightly envious, they didn\'t have the urge to tease the two of them for simply sitting beside each other anymore.
After settling down on his new seat and casually chatting with Shirley for a little while, Shye suddenly remembered someone.
"If only Instructor Fienna could be our combat instructor again then everything would be perfect…"
Shye couldn\'t help but think of Instructor Fienna who helped him a lot during his first year. She was always the first one to believe in his capability and even argued against most of the veteran instructors in order to give him the chance to reach his peak potential.
In his eyes, she was the perfect combat instructor anyone could ever wish for.
However, he also understood that he must move forward so it was inevitable that some people were just a temporary part of his life.
Except…
"Go back to your seats! Or do you guys want me to smack your heads off before you get seated?"
After hearing the familiar voice, everyone was stupefied.
"Instructor Fienna!"
Everyone simultaneously called out the name of the most excellent combat instructor in their hearts, Instructor Fienna Evans.
"What? Why do you guys look like you\'ve seen a ghost?"
Instructor Fienna furrowed her brows after seeing the surprised expressions on the faces of her students.
"N-No, it\'s just that…we didn\'t expect that you would still be our combat instructor…"
One of Shye\'s classmates replied
"Huh? Are you guys stupid? You\'re all stuck with me until you graduate and the higher the year level, the harder the training regimen becomes so you guys better prepare yourselves!"
After hearing Instructor Fienna\'s words, although everyone showed horrified expressions, deep inside, they were pleased that their beloved Instructor Fienna would be the one who would teach them everything about combat until they graduated.
Once everyone was seated, Instructor Fienna nodded in satisfaction and immediately opened her attendance book to check everyone\'s attendance.
Of course, no one dared to be absent on the first day and even Shye, who had the class exemption pass, didn\'t dare to skip on the first day of classes.
"Alright, it seems like everyone is here, let\'s start the discussion"
"As you all know, you are sophomores now and the entire education system for sophomores, juniors, and seniors is different from the education system for freshmen students."
"As freshmen, you get to attend classes for free. However, as sophomores, you have to pay using academy points before you can attend what we call the "premium classes"
"These premium classes will teach you knowledge that is unavailable to the masses and will set you apart from ordinary adventurers"
