The Mecha Driver Is a Cultivator

Chapter 103: Chapter 81: Inheritance Seed_4

At this point, she paused slightly: “The admissions department hasn’t gone to negotiate yet, but I believe, given your talent, once you join our academy, Mr. Chi won’t be stingy in guiding you.”

The Mr. Chi she referred to, naturally was the headmaster of Wuyuan Academy.

“Before the academy entrance exam begins, according to the consensus of the Federation and each academy, it’s not permissible to admit you early, but our Wuyuan Academy plans to establish a branch campus on this planet.”

“After all, this place will be promoted to Gaia Planet in the future.”

“Soon, teachers will come over, and if there’s anything you don’t understand before enrolling, you can ask anytime.”

At this point, she paused slightly and looked at Qin Jin: “How about it?”

There was confidence in her tone.

“It’s indeed quite generous.”

Qin Jin exclaimed.

“Of course.”

Zhong Yi replied proudly, then lowered her voice a little and whispered: “Qin Jin, you must thank me.”

“The academy has no choice, although it’s not mandatory for the young martial artists on the observation list to come to our Wuyuan, someone like you, a future star with visible talent, if you went to another academy and if information about you being on the observation list gets exposed, wouldn’t it make other academies laugh.”

“If the duck you have flies away, that’s too embarrassing!”

“Our admissions director didn’t explicitly say it, but I realized when he found me, it already represented that our Wuyuan Academy is determined to have you.”

She made an analogy and continued: “Compare goods among several providers, those academies yet to arrive will come soon too, consider it yourself.”

“Let me know once you make a decision.”

After speaking, she turned to leave.

And at this moment.

Qin Jin set down the files in his hand and said calmly: “No need.”

“Oh?”

Qin Jin’s voice was steady: “I’ve chosen Wuyuan Academy.”

Upon hearing this, Zhong Yi’s eyes showed a ripple: “You’re not going to wait for conditions from other academies?”

“Only three of the Seven Great Institutes have arrived so far.”

“With the Federation’s teleportation technology, the order of arrival is enough to determine the level of importance.”

“Talent is ultimately just talent, and it cannot be a decisive factor yet; it seems I’m not their most valued choice.”

“Moreover, didn’t I promise to consider Wuyuan Academy as my first choice?”

Qin Jin asked rhetorically and continued: “Senior Sister Zhong, from the attitudes shown by each academy, my inner balance has already made a decision.”

He’s never been the type to drag things out.

The other four arrived later, so they’re excluded.

Lingshu Academy proposed something related to Star God, leaving a lesser impression on him.

Celestial Strategy Academy was very sincere, even promising a future captain position, including support for later development, which was tempting.

But to Qin Jin.

The deep connection between Celestial Strategy Academy and the Military Department means that the academy’s system atmosphere would be quite strict, leaning towards militarization.

Qin Jin frequently needs to visit the Great Wilderness, which naturally runs counter to this.

And upon thinking it over, the decision emerged.

“Good!”

Zhong Yi clapped her hands: “Junior, then I’ll be waiting to welcome your esteemed presence at the academy after school starts!”

Upon hearing this, Qin Jin smiled slightly.

After a moment of hesitation, he spoke: “Since the academy plans to send teachers to Mining Star, are any of the teachers’ weapons using the Halberd? Heaven-piercing Halberd?”

“You’re planning to use this kind of weapon?”

Zhong Yi instantly realized and patted her chest: “Don’t worry, our Wuyuan Academy has the most martial artists.”

“Leave this matter to me.”

Having made the decision, Qin Jin wouldn’t drag things out.

Leaving with Zhong Yi, facing the other academies’ admissions teams, Qin Jin directly announced his decision.

Pulling and pushing will only affect mutual relations; a top-notch academy has huge influence within the Federation, and Qin Jin naturally wouldn’t do such a foolish thing.

After confirming his academy choice, Qin Jin’s life became peaceful.

During this period.

Federation staff from the [Development Consultant] profession sought his opinion on some matters.

Other academies among the Seven Great Institutes contacted Qin Jin but were met with a polite refusal.

Qin Jin fully immersed himself in the design and manufacture of new mecha.

As the owner of the mecha, he and Wang Yao voiced their ideas and followed the entire mecha manufacturing team to learn.

On the seventh day of participating in mecha design.

A new profession appeared on Qin Jin’s profession panel!

[Mecha Designer]

Working with a professional team, progress was fast.

…

Time passed.

Star Ring Heavy Industries temporary base.

A glance across the spacious experimental field revealed a nearly thirty meters tall humanoid mechanical construct standing in place.

Its details hadn’t been filled, modules hadn’t been installed, looking like it was just a skeleton, empty.

It was primarily made of Dragonbone Alloy and Extraordinary Material, engraved with glowing runes on the upper parts of the skeleton.

“Qin Jin.”

Wang Yao looked at Qin Jin: “The core mechanical structure, the sensor system, and the control system are all in place.”

“Although it’s far from being complete, it already has the capability to be piloted.”

“Want to try it?”

During this time, Qin Jin grew familiar with the team during daily design work.

“Of course.”

Eyes full of eagerness, Qin Jin replied and stepped forward, under the massive mechanical construct, bent slightly, leaped up, grabbed a joint, climbed step by step, directly ascending to the cockpit above.

When the mecha is fully formed, it’ll employ basic short-distance teleportation technology so the pilot can enter the mecha anytime.

But now, this step hasn’t been completed.

The cockpit was still airy, unfilled around, with only the very center, where the softly glowing control core hovered, slowly rotating.

He intended to modify the control core influenced by Wish Power himself, not with the team.

After all, Wish Power remains his trump card.

Qin Jin exhaled deeply.

Suppressing his anticipation, he placed his hands on the Light Sphere.

Spiritual Power surged.

In the next instant.

In Qin Jin’s senses, his body expanded massively, transforming into a giant, with surging energy flowing through all parts!

Extraordinary Mecha!

This is the martial artist’s most potent combat weapon!

The runes on the mechanical skeleton suddenly lit up, flowing with Extraordinary Power.

Qin Jin attempted to channel Life Energy, which flowed into the mecha, traveling through its circuits, rapidly magnifying, as the massive body radiated brilliant light.

Surging strength flowed.

And at this moment.

From his perception, Qin Jin’s thoughts twitched.

The profession panel appeared before him.

His gaze fell upon the newly emerged [Mecha Designer], and behind it, a new profession emerged.

[Mecha Pilot]

Qin Jin: ?

Deep Driller: ?

“So…”

Qin Jin looked at the once speculated profession, and suddenly recalled a possibility.

“In the system’s judgment, this yet-to-be-completed big guy already counts as a mecha.”

“But Deep Driller wasn’t counted?!”

“Then how did the Refitter profession appear?”

His mind turned swiftly, contemplating more: “Perhaps it’s because the parts I changed on Deep Driller, although outdated, were still genuinely mecha parts, thus generating the Refitter profession.”

He breathed out, realizing this, somewhat amused.

This clearly was the profession panel discriminating against Deep Driller, this second-hand mining machine!

As his thoughts flickered, when Qin Jin was preparing to fully experience this incomplete mecha.

On the profession panel.

In his view, [Refitter], [Designer], [Pilot]—three mecha-related professions—gradually dimmed.

Replaced by…

A new tri-combined profession!
