Exotic Battlefield: I Can Activate Dual Talents-Chapter 38 - 36: First Guiding

Lu Lin examined carefully and confirmed that he was indeed promoted.

The college entrance examination time here in Tongyuan is June 1st, and today is only June 5th. In just five days, he completed the promotion, without even having a stabilization period; such speed is nothing short of fast.

After the advancement of Star Power, Lu Lin discovered that his strength had also increased significantly.

It didn’t result in the kind of grimy, stinky appearance you read about in novels.

He has been eating nutritional meals since he was young, so the impurities in his body aren’t many.

After researching newly realized Star Skills, Lu Lin couldn’t help but show a slight bitter smile.

This Evasion skill, for some reason, always feels particularly suited to an Earth Warrior.

With a War Cry, pull enemies close.

Evasion is possible when facing attacks.

If something can’t be dodged, Stone Skin can be used for defense.

This surely resembles the Earth Warrior template.

The harvest of the night wasn’t small; Lu Lin looked at the sky and fell asleep.

After cultivating all night, his body was fine, but mentally he was still quite tired.

Morning.

Lu Lin sat in Zuo Yiming’s car and arrived at Tongyuan Juvenile Military Academy.

The Youth Military School was established by the federation in response to the increasingly severe situation on the Exotic Battlefield.

It mainly recruits young people who are poor but aspiring to join the army, giving them specialized militarized training after graduating from Junior High School.

However, the effectiveness of this approach is not very good.

Affected by awakening chances, in recent years, Tongyuan Juvenile Military Academy has gradually become a burden to the government.

Wanting to abolish it is impossible, and wanting to allocate funds is even more difficult.

Today’s Tongyuan Juvenile Military Academy, Lu Lin can vaguely see some of the previous flourish from the imposing but dilapidated teaching buildings and student dormitories.

Lu Lin and Zuo Yiming were welcomed by a Director of Teaching at Tongyuan Military Academy, who of course is called Chief Instructor at the academy.

"Student Lu, Student Zuo, on behalf of Tongyuan Juvenile Military Academy, welcome you both."

"Instructor Liang, you’re too kind."

"I’m just a partially skilled guide. I’m grateful the youth military academy doesn’t abandon me, and I can offer my little effort."

Lu Lin had already heard from Zuo Yiming about the situation here on the way over.

In the recent decade or so, the quality of students at Youth Military School hasn’t improved.

Every year, those with awakened talents barely reach thirty people, completely incomparable to fifty awakened people at Golden Sword High School at once.

Moreover, students are all poor disciples without connections. To comprehend Star Techniques, they must wait in line at university for a guide.

After such to-ing and fro-ing, at least half a year passes.

In that time, students could have reached zero level, squandering an opportunity to comprehend Star Skills.

That’s why yesterday when Lu Lin mentioned it to Zuo Yiming, Zuo Yiming agreed to bring him over.

"Student Lu, you’re too kind. I heard you studied under Master Jiang Yueming; guiding Star Skills is certainly no problem for you."

Liang Liang smiled and turned to lead the two to the prepared conference room.

This year, the number of awakened students at the Youth Military Academy hit a record low, with only 19 people, all sitting quietly in a small conference room waiting.

Seeing Lu Lin and Zuo Yiming enter, everyone remained silent and kept their gaze directed.

Lu Lin couldn’t help but be amazed at the sight.

Sure enough, it lived up to the name of Youth Military Academy, where orders are strictly obeyed.

"Students, this is Lu Lin who will guide you today with Star Skills; let’s give him a round of applause."

"Clap, clap, clap."

After Liang Liang finished speaking, the room echoed with orderly applause.

Though the military school students didn’t speak, they curiously observed the young man about their age.

Star Skill Instructor, yet so young?

Is Instructor Liang’s word reliable?

"Instructor Liang, could you please give me a list of the students present and prepare a Cultivation Room?"

"I will provide one-on-one guidance."

"Sure, please follow me."

Everything Lu Lin needed had been prepared by Liang Liang the night before after receiving the call.

He prepared a cultivation room filled with dense Star Power and equipped with a formation to gather Star Power.

Apparently, the military school has invested heavily in these students this time.

"Student Lu, I will have the students enter according to the list, if your Star Power is insufficient, notify me and we will fully cooperate."

"Alright, thank you, Instructor Liang."

"No need to thank me; it’s us who should be thanking you."

Instructor Liang thought to himself, nodded to Lu Lin, and went to the conference room to start calling students.

Zuo Yiming, curious, sat in the monitoring room next to the Cultivation Room, chatting with Luo Ling while watching the situation inside.

This time, Lu Lin came to the military school, and Zuo Yiming pledged to Zuo Zhenyu for assurances.

Once results come out, he must report to Zuo Zhenyu.

The first military school student entered the Cultivation Room.

"Reporting, graduate Fu Hougang of XX session of Youth Military Academy reporting to you."

Fu Hougang stood tall and saluted Lu Lin after entering.

Lu Lin immediately stood up, "No need to be polite, Student Fu, please have a seat."

"Please remove your military cap."

Fu Hougang complied, his demeanor serious, yet his slightly trembling hands revealed his current emotions.

He’s nervous.

In his first experience of guiding Star Skills, Fu Hougang worried about failing to comprehend while hoping to succeed entirely; the conflicting emotions were indescribable.

"Student Fu, relax. Later, close your eyes and enter the Consciousness Universe."

"By the way, what’s your talent, and what kind of Star Skill do you want to comprehend?"

Lu Lin had already seen some basic information about Fu Hougang on the student list; asking was merely to ease the other’s tension.

"Reporting!"

Fu Hougang instinctively stood up; seeing Lu Lin waved, he sat down again.

"My talent is Gold System and I want to comprehend combat-type Star Skills."

"Ideally, skills that make bullets."

"Oh?"

Lu Lin looked at him curiously. Upon becoming a Star Core Warrior, as Star Vein refines, parts of Star Power feed back to oneself, reaching Level 1 Star Core Warrior, skin defense alone can block ordinary knife and sword damage.

Firearms drastically reduce harm to Star Core Warriors, even at close range won’t cause fatal injuries.

Why does Fu Hougang want to comprehend bullet-making Star Skills?

Seeing Lu Lin’s confusion, Fu Hougang chuckled: "Our ordinary students at the military academy, not awakened, will only use ordinary firearms on the battlefield, lacking physical strength to use high-energy attack weapons."

"During a past annihilation... um, exercise, our company suffered ammunition shortage, so I wish to comprehend such Star Skills."

Fu Hougang stopped midway and quickly corrected himself.

Lu Lin didn’t ask further, knowing the military academy remained highly confidential, knowing more does himself no good.

However, after chatting briefly, Fu Hougang’s emotions visibly calmed.

"Okay, I understand. When you enter the Star Power Domain, recall the anxious feeling during the ammunition shortage. It helps in comprehending Star Skills."

"Alright..."

Before Fu Hougang finished, his vision blurred, and he found himself in a place full of yellow sand.

His good psychological vibe quickly relaxed as he cautiously observed his surroundings.

The sky, ground, wherever sight reaches, there’s desert, dust, sandstorm.

In such a place, how does one comprehend Star Skills.
