Chapter 341

Returning to Duel Academy, Tenjou Hikari slacked off for a day. The next day, the school's opening ceremony began.

There were two points to today's opening ceremony.

The first point was to welcome students and professors from various branch schools.

It was also at this time that the students of the Duel Academy headquarters learned that there were so many branch schools of "Duel Academy" in this world.

North Branch, Arctic Circle Branch, North America Branch, Northern Europe Branch—there are four just with "North" in the name. Besides these, there are Western Branch, Southern Branch, Eastern Branch, South Africa Branch...

Each school sent at least one branch representative and an academy professor in charge, so the beginning of the opening ceremony was introducing these professors and students from various branch schools.

There were some Tenjou Hikari was more familiar with, such as Jim, and others that others were more familiar with, such as Johan, who was brought to the venue by Jaden because he guessed he would get lost.

In addition, O'Brien also simply nodded to them, which could be considered a greeting.

Compared to the other two, he was too serious, so he stood very standardly on the podium.

Then there was...

Amon.

Compared to how he looked when he saw him a while ago, he had almost no changes at all. The whole person looked very calm, just standing on the podium like this, and you couldn't see anything special.

These people, in Tenjou Hikari's impression, were still relatively consistent with his impression.

But others were not so consistent.

The "others" here refer to those "professors."

Except for that Professor Viper, there were several other professors who came to the academy for assessment this time, and each one looked quite imposing.

Professor "Seraph" from the North America Branch, Professor "Paladin" from the Northern Europe Branch, Professor "Fierce General" from the Central Branch...

These professors, whose names alone sounded very powerful, made Tenjou Hikari's eyebrows jump wildly.

In the original work, these professors certainly didn't appear, but after all, the world is different. The "professor" position at Duel Academy is an excellent profession for many excellent duelists to squeeze into the "upper class," and it is also an excellent opportunity to meet some dimensional duelists, so competitors from all over the world are endless.

After all, for teachers, this profession is tiring and hard and pays little, but for those ordinary duelists, this is a hot commodity.

Therefore, it is very normal for some powerful duelists to appear in other academies in this world.

The second thing...

"Our respected Professor Declan Akaba has passed away."

Tenjou Hikari raised his eyebrows slightly, his mouth couldn't stop curling up, and he even wanted to applaud.

It's here—

Finally here!

The words I wanted to hear most finally came!

Although this matter was done by Tenjou Hikari himself, after all, everyone wasn't particularly sure. Now hearing Crowler say this, the whole school suddenly exploded into discussion.

Because of this, Professor Viper on the stage couldn't help but look at Tenjou Hikari.

After all, Declan Akaba's death probably had something to do with Tenjou Hikari.

Everyone knew that a video had been circulated before, which was Tenjou Hikari defeating Declan Akaba in a duel. Although it was only a short corner, he could see that there was definitely extraordinary power mixed in that duel.

Not only him, but several other professors also looked at Tenjou Hikari more or less.

The "chief," "ace" of the Duel Academy headquarters, Crowler's "secret weapon"...

Many of them now knew very well that in the past professor gatherings, Crowler's performance must have been to paralyze them!

It's very simple—

Look at the records after Declan Akaba's death!

Those duel and experiment records, the hostility toward Crowler, and the targeting of him in several plans by Crowler...

Clearly, Crowler wasn't unaware of Declan Akaba's conspiracy, and he wasn't without trying to stop Declan Akaba, but had been waiting for an opportunity.

Waiting for an opportunity for him to defeat Declan Akaba in one fell swoop and then become a "savior"!

Nowadays, Declan Akaba is dead, and Tenjou Hikari has replaced Declan Akaba, becoming synonymous with "Fusion" in the whole world. The principal of the Duel Academy headquarters has also resigned due to his own faults, and Crowler has become the person in charge of the academy and acting principal, with the possibility of becoming the real principal at any time.

Crowler is not to be underestimated!

Could it be that his performance at professor gatherings in the past was a strategy to deliberately paralyze their spirits!

Perhaps it is because of this reason, and because of Declan Akaba's lesson, that many professors here are very careful—especially at this time when professors from Duel Academies around the world have been invited for assessment, they are even more cautious.

Perhaps this is another conspiracy of Crowler, wanting to take them all in one go at this time!

Therefore, those professors who think more are carefully examining Tenjou Hikari at this moment, wanting to see something from Tenjou Hikari's face.

This made Tenjou Hikari a bit confused.

Why are these people staring at me? What's wrong, did each of you possess a Yubel?

That should be looking at Jaden, go look at him.

Of course, not all professors were looking at them. Many professors looked at the noisy students below and couldn't help but frown, and some even disdained this matter.

"Quiet, quiet—" Professor Crowler shouted twice into the microphone. Below the podium, the students' voices gradually lowered.

If nothing else, Professor Crowler's prestige in the school is quite good now.

After finishing these two opening things, Professor Crowler talked about other things.

That is, this semester, for him, and for other professors, the most important thing.

"Teacher Assessment."

At first glance, this matter has nothing to do with the students. Teacher assessment, it must be tested as it should be. Students might have the opportunity to see professors taking exams in a classroom or something.

But, teacher assessment must have something to do with the students.

Because there is one thing, no matter what, that will never change.

That is...

A teacher's "ability" does not lie in the individual, but in "teaching students."

If a teacher can't even teach students well, then what kind of teacher is he?

And these professors are the persons in charge of each academy, responsible for managing all branch teachers. If even the basic ability is not good, how can they be qualified to guide other teachers to educate students?

Therefore, the logic of this professor assessment is based on this—

Teaching students.

Next is the key point.

Many professors and students couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

After all, listening to Professor Crowler's meaning, he wants to let these professors teach them!

"In the next semester, a special professor course will be launched." Professor Crowler took the plan and said slowly, "The academy's large conference room will hold a special course every day. The course is freely chosen by the professors. Students of every grade and every academy can freely choose whether to listen to the content of each course.

Finally, during the final exam, there will be additional exam content. Every student can choose to participate on their own, and each course exam will be calculated separately for extra points. And, this final result will be included in the assessment exam of each professor."

So that's how it is!

"Eh—" a student suddenly had a flash of inspiration and secretly said to several students around him, "Then wouldn't we be able to find a professor who is particularly easy to talk to, and then just teach something casually, and we will take the exam with full marks in the final exam, wouldn't that be a win-win!?"

If you only look at the theoretical assessment, it is certainly reasonable.

But—

If a teacher fools students like this for his own grades, can he really still call himself "excellent" in the profession of "teacher"?

Although I don't know if Professor Crowler will leave such a loophole, Tenjou Hikari thought about the assessment score of the fallen angel teacher before, and Tenjou Hikari dared to say.

Even if Professor Crowler thinks about making money and expanding the scale of the academy on weekdays, he must have made preparations at this time, and it is absolutely not just letting the professors deal with it.

The impression left by Declan Akaba and other teachers on Professor Crowler is too deep.

Therefore, the "morality" of teachers and the "attitude" toward students must also be within the scope of consideration.

"Of course, in addition to this category, there are other duel exams, which will not be detailed here." Professor Crowler put away the plan in his hand, coughed twice, and finally said everything he wanted to do.

If it were before, his ideas would definitely be rejected by other colleagues. After all, everyone is a professor, and no one is higher than anyone else. But now, he is the acting principal in name and the next principal in reality, so he can carry out these things according to his own ideas.

"So that's it..."

"Heh, professor course? This is too simple."

Several professors couldn't help laughing.

Although everyone is a duelist.

But being able to become a professor by "strength" is never purely relying on duel level. They are not bad in all aspects.

Many professors even thought about what they wanted to teach in an instant.

And among these professors, there are even more radical ones...

"This is too simple, Professor Crowler." A figure suddenly stepped out and stood in front of all the professors. He was tall and big, wearing a dark purple professor uniform, and opened his mouth, "For our Duel Academy, the most important thing is to teach students duels, teach students duel knowledge...

So, I think every student studying at Duel Academy must be very eager.

Eager for the simplest, most basic, most direct content!

Duel!"

He raised his right hand, clenched it into a fist: "No matter which branch, no matter what age, no matter whether the competition results are excellent or not, there is only one most important course to measure a Duel Academy student...

That is [Duel]!

So—Professor Crowler, my course has been decided, that is... practical combat class."

"Practical combat?" Professor Crowler repeated.

"This guy is too cunning." "Sure enough, Viper is as insidious as a poisonous snake." Several professors who didn't like Professor Viper muttered in their hearts.

That's right.

For Duel Academy students, the simplest, most intuitive, and most improving thing will always be "practical combat."

But, Viper can do this course, and they, naturally, can do it too.

After all, for those who turned to teaching from powerful duelists, practical combat is the simplest and most direct thing.

Tenjou Hikari laughed below.

Because he knew that Professor Crowler would definitely refuse him to do this.

"Professor Viper, you are right." On the stage, Professor Crowler nodded gently, "For our noble Duel Academy, teaching every student to duel is an indispensable link.

And precisely because this is an indispensable link, so... this most important class, of course, cannot be changed at will."

Hmm?

"So, the practical combat class will still be responsible by the responsible teachers of each age and each class."

Tsk...

Viper cursed in his heart, and his action of taking things out also paused.

He originally wanted to take out the duel energy bracelet to show the students and professors as an "auxiliary" means to teach students practical combat.

After all, as long as the duel energy is improved, anyone can see that the students' level must have risen, and he can also take advantage of this means to collect duel energy.

But he didn't expect that Professor Crowler had been prepared for a long time and blocked this road.

Several snickers sounded behind him.

Playing little tricks?

Don't you know that Professor Crowler is a conspirator who has fought with Declan Akaba for many years and even pitted him to death?

Tenjou Hikari looked at Professor Viper's embarrassed expression and couldn't help laughing again.

Regarding this professor assessment, Professor Crowler naturally wouldn't discuss it with Tenjou Hikari, a student, but if he gave the professor advice, the professor would definitely refer to his advice.

For things like "practical combat class," which is the top priority for students, Tenjou Hikari just mentioned it to Crowler, and Professor Crowler directly agreed and recognized Tenjou Hikari's suggestion.

You can't let the teacher assessment affect the growth of students!

Although the things this semester are different, it is not purely a study exchange for students of various academies, but a teacher assessment, but people are also different—Professor Crowler is not Principal Sheppard. Although he is a little timid, he is not as kind as Principal Sheppard and has his own persistence.

All things that may affect the growth of students will be rejected by Professor Crowler.

Finally, several professors submitted the courses they wanted to teach under the gaze of the students, and then, according to the teacher course schedule that Professor Crowler had already arranged, they were arranged to every day that followed.

There are many courses, and they are messy.

There are demonology, chivalry, and strategy classes. Each one looks different from the courses that ordinary students should learn.

But I have to say—Duel Academy students have even learned alchemy classes, so the acceptance of these classes is naturally very high.

Tenjou Hikari looked at the course schedule, touched his chin, and looked at Professor Viper's course curiously.

Spirit Power Studies?

Originally, he just wanted to see what Professor Viper taught, but when he saw it was this course, he became interested immediately.
