Chapter 16 College Selection
As the day's tour came to a close, the Chu family of four returned to their hotel. The fatigue of the journey washed over them as soon as they stepped into their room. Chu Qiuchi and Chu Yichen collapsed onto the sofa almost simultaneously, their legs feeling as heavy as lead, yet their faces bore the satisfied look of excitement.
Seeing this, Chu Siyuan couldn't help but smile and shake his head: "So, what are your thoughts on the two colleges you visited today?"
Chu Qiuchi rubbed his sore legs, straightened up, and after thinking for a moment, said, "Holy Light Noble Academy is truly magnificent, especially the magic tower and library, which impressed me deeply. However... I find the physical training and alchemy at Mingxi Holy Academy more appealing."
Chu Yichen chimed in, "Yes, me too. The magic tower at Holy Light Noble Academy is indeed magnificent and can increase cultivation speed, but I prefer Mingxi Holy Academy. Especially their physical training, it feels particularly practical."
Qiu Jingya looked at the two gently upon hearing this and said softly, "The academy environment is certainly important, but ultimately, what will help you grow is your own hard work and effort. So you must carefully consider your true interests and goals."
Chu Siyuan nodded in agreement: "That's right. The academy is just a platform. You need to choose the place that best suits your development direction. Today's visit has allowed you to understand the characteristics of the two academies. Now it's time to think carefully about your future plans."
Chu Qiuchi sat up straight and asked seriously, "And what about you? What do you think of these two academies? How do you think we should choose?"
Chu Yichen also looked at his parents expectantly, clearly hoping to get some advice and support from them.
After a moment of contemplation, Qiu Jingya smiled and said, "I think both academies have their advantages. For example, Holy Light Noble Academy has a superior learning environment and magic towers that can improve cultivation speed. Mingxi Holy Academy has a comprehensive training system and unique alchemy. Xiao Chi has an unparalleled advantage in mental strength. Mingxi Holy Academy is obviously more suitable for you. As for Chenchen, it depends on your own future plans."
Chu Siyuan added, "Your mother is right. Holy Light Noble Academy has a hidden advantage: most of its students come from powerful and influential families, which is a kind of invisible network of connections. Whatever your decision is, we will fully support you."
Chu Qiuchi lowered his head and pondered for a while, then raised his head and said firmly, "I also think that Mingxi Holy Academy is more suitable for me. I am very interested in alchemy, and perhaps I can better utilize my strengths there."
Hearing his sister's words, Chu Yichen also said earnestly, "Me too. My awakened skills are more defensive, and the bonus effects are also concentrated on defense. If I can learn better combat skills and physical training at Mingxi Holy Academy, I can become a more well-rounded mage."
Chu Qiuchi smiled slightly and nodded in agreement: "Indeed, defensive skills combined with strong physical fitness allow one to survive longer on the battlefield."
Chu Siyuan and Qiu Jingya exchanged a glance as they listened to the children's analysis, their eyes filled with satisfaction and pride. Chu Siyuan smiled and said, "It seems you already have the answer in your hearts."
Chu Qiuchi and Chu Yichen exchanged a smile and announced in unison, "We've made up our minds, we're going to Mingxi Holy Academy!"
Chu Siyuan and Qiu Jingya smiled with pride and satisfaction upon hearing the children's decision. The children had become capable of independent thinking and making choices for their own future. They were proud of their children's growth and excited about the new journey that was about to begin.
Similar scenes played out frequently in other rooms of the Dulan Grand Hotel. The families of those outstanding awakened individuals, after a day of tours, were also immersed in excited discussions, debating the choices they were about to face.
In a room, a couple was earnestly persuading their child: "Son, choose Holy Light Noble Academy. It's full of powerful and wealthy people. Making friends with just one or two of them will greatly help your future development."
The mother spoke gently, but her eyes were full of expectation, clearly indicating that she had already made plans for her son's future. The father nodded in agreement, his face conveying the unspoken meaning of "We're doing this for your own good." The child sat on the edge of the bed, head bowed in thought, visibly burdened by his parents' expectations.
In another room, a little girl earnestly said to her parents, "Mom and Dad, I want to go to Mingxi Holy Academy and become an alchemist. That way, our family will be rich, and you won't have to work so hard." Her eyes shone with determination, as if she had already planned her future.
In another room, a little boy stood by the window, gazing at the capital city outside, and proudly declared, "I'm going to the Holy Light Noble Academy; that's where I belong."

Meanwhile, all the tour leaders responsible for guiding the tour today gathered in a lounge. They looked at each other awkwardly and smiled, because everyone could feel the constant vibrations of the magical teleportation devices on their bodies, which were the concerned inquiries and urgings from the two deans.
A team leader broke the silence with a wry smile: "It seems the deans are quite concerned about our work results."
Another team leader couldn't help but laugh out loud, humorously replying, "Indeed, the vibration frequency of this magic teleport is even more frequent than the Earthquake skill I encountered in magic combat class." His words drew a burst of chuckles from the surrounding team leaders, easing the tense atmosphere somewhat.
Then, the team leaders each took out their staffs, began to channel their magic, and chanted incantations to condense envelopes. Focusing their mental energy, they meticulously infused the day's tour information, as well as each family's feedback and preferences, into magical messages to respond to the deans' inquiries.
