"There are several occupation which you could master while studying in the academy. Here are the list." said Ling Yu as she handed down a paper with the title 'Occupation'.
Looking through this long list, Duan Li found out that these occupations were broken down into major and minor. For a student of the academy, it was compulsory to select at least one major and four minor occupations.
For the minor occupations, there are more than 50 choices. However, for the Major occupations, there are only 5 available; Warrior class, Spellcaster class, Alchemist class, Strategist class and Lord class.
Duan Li was very much interested in that last occupation, thus he looked up towards Ling Yu and asked, "What does a Lord class occupation does?"
The trio raised their brows including the chief doctor whom had now became Duan Li's disciple, when they heard Duan Li's interest in the Lord class. After all, out of all the five major occupations, the Lord class was the most difficult to advance and daunting.
"This... Perhaps the principal would be the better person to ask this rather than me..." said Ling Yu as she smiled awkwardly.
While she and Wang Guozhi were of the Warrior class occupation, the principal himself was of the Lord class occupation!
"Let me explain then. The Lord class is the most troublesome of all the occupations, but also the most rewarding out of them all!" said the principal as all the people in the room nodded their head in agreement.
"But, before I go into detail of the Lord class, let me explain to you the star ranking system for all of the major and minor occupations!" the principal continued.
The principal began to explained that the Academy would put star levels on each occupation, which meant how far had a person achieve in it. The higher the number of their total stars, the more formidable the person would be.
However, not all occupations were similar in their difficulty level. Out of all the occupations, the Warrior class was the most easiest, followed by Spellcaster class like Ran Yang - the senior teacher that was in charge of the second trial, Alchemist like Ju Zhianhu - whom was the chief doctor from the royal palace and was now Duan Li's disciple, Strategist class like the vice principal -whom Duan Li hadn't met yet, and finally the hardest, the Lord class like Bian Tianyu - the principal of the Jixue Knights Academy.
Therefore, a 3 star Warrior doesn't necessarily meant that they were superior to a 1 or 2 star Spellcaster. In terms of battle prowess, perhaps they were, but because of the differrent goals and difficulties to achieve in each occupation class in order to rank up, if one were to use their battle prowess alone as an indicator for whom was much more superior, then they had totally made a fatal judgement error!
And this concept was the most truest to its essence for the Lord class occupation. This was because even if a Lord class was still stuck at the one star rank, their battle prowess could be even more terrifying than that of a five star rank warrior!
Duan Li's brows creased together as he listened to this explanation, "Such a gap in difficulties to rank up?"
"Why is it like this? Does being a Lord class is really that difficult?" asked Duan Li curiously as he cupped his chin.
"The word difficult is but still an underestimation for the Lord clas! I myself am still stuck at the four star rank for almost 10 years now!" replied the principal as he shook his head, looking a little bit dejected.
"Eh? Then.. what about everyone else here?" exclaimed Duan Li, a little bit surprised when he heard the principal stated his star rank.
"I am a seven star Warrior class!" replied Wang Guozhi with a proud face as he crossed his arms on his chest.
"I am a seven star Warrior class too!" said Ling Yu with a smile.
The chief doctor, Ju Zhianhu with a sneering look, declared his rank as he lifted his chin up a bit, "Young master, this disciple is of the six star Alchemist class!"
"Eh? Such a vast gap! Perhaps the most impressive one here should probably be the chief doctor!" thought Duan Li.
The principal could only sighed deeply.
Looking at that downed expression of their principal, Ling Yu spoke out "But Duan Li, you have to know what makes the Lord class occupation so unique! Just with the principal's battle prowess alone, he is already on par with an eight star rank Warrior class, a six star rank Spellcaster class, a three star rank Alchemist class and a four star rank Strategist class!"
It was only after she mentioned these that the face of the principal became bright once more and that dejected face alleviated slightly. Although there was still a trace of hopelessness that could be seen reflected on his face.
"If you wanted to know why a Lord class was so difficult to rank up, I will tell you now, its because a Lord class would have to raise the capabilities of their followers by using their own means, and the academy would not spare a lot of resources to nurture the followers under these Lord class people!" said the principal as he looked up at the ceiling, straight into the light bulb up ahead, as if reminiscing the most difficult moment in his life.
"Eventhough this would be quite a heavy decision to make for the people who wanted to become the followers of a Lord class because of the limited privileges that they will get, it would still not be a problem for them as they could find other means to supplement themselves."
After exhaling deeply once more, the principal continued, "Therefore, if it were only that, there would still be a lot of students choosing the Lord class from the silkpants students faction and those tycoon families. If I were to convert the value of 10 gold coins into one spirit stone, then the cost to rank up a single Warrior class into a five star rank would be a staggering 200 thousand spirit stones! For those rich individuals, although these are expensive, it was still manageable and could be recovered within a few months."
"But what if I told you that in order to rank up to even a single star rank Lord class requires you to have at least 10 followers, of which the Warrior and Spellcaster class must be a two star rank above, and the Alchemist and Strategist at one star rank? With the total accumulation of the star rank ranks of their 10 followers to be at least 15 stars and above?"
"If you think thats a crazy requirement but still manageable, then the two star rank of Lord class requires you to have at least three times more than that, the three star rank Lord class seven times and the four star rank Lord class ten times?"
As the principal expressed all these, there were tears forming at the both sides of his eyes, threatening to fall down anytime soon.
He remembered that difficult times back then, where he had to be extremely frugal in every aspect of his daily life. He looks a lot more like a beggar living beside the street than a Lord!
Even his followers had to grit their teeth and work as part timers, some of them that couldn't handle it anymore even decided to leave his side, and after he had painstakingly put all his resources to raise their ranks too!
Those ingrateful bastards! One of these days, I will find them to make even for all of the grievances that I felt before because of them!
How dare they used me!
Wang Guozhi patted the shoulders of the Principal in order to soothe the latter's painful heart.
Hais, how tragic!
Thinking for awhile, Duan Li currently had a lot of resources that he got from the treasury he looted inside his spatial ring, so getting 10 followers shouldn't be an issue for the time being.
However, he needed to choose these followers carefully and they must have a solid and upright personality. This was because Duan Li was planning to nurture them so that they could help in defeating the Sun dragon in the future. Thus, they must be loyal and shared the same goal as him!
"I see, but I think I will be able to handle it! At least for the one star rank of the Lord class for the moment!" Said Duan Li as he looked at their eyes.
Noticing what Duan Li meant, the trio agreed because Duan Li has a responsibility that not many knew. If Duan Li couldn't even accomplish this task, then they can all forget about defeating the Sun dragon as it would be nigh impossible!
"En, fine!" nodded the principal before he continued, "What about the minor occupations? You need at least four of them at the moment."
With his photographic memory, Duan Li didn't need to look through the long list of occupations anymore as he quickly replied, "I will take the Appraiser class, Herbalogist class, Master Teaching class and the Combat class!"
Eh? What an interesting choice of minor occupations.
The four of them tried to find the meaning behind Duan Li's decision. The chief doctor could understand the reason for the Herbalogist class, and the trio understood why Duan Li was confident to take the Master Teaching class and the Combat class, but for the appraiser class?
That is one hell-of-moly-cow difficult stuff that requires extensive knowledge on a lot of things, ranking up on this class wouldn't be easy!
