Chapter 564: Professor Evaluation Assessment (4k)

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

Today's opening ceremony had two points.

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 realized that there were so many "Duel Academy" branch schools in this world.

North branch, Arctic Circle branch, North American branch, Nordic branch, there were four with "North" alone. Besides these, there were Western branch, Southern branch, Eastern branch, South African branch...

Each school sent at least one branch representative and a responsible professor, so the beginning of the opening ceremony was introducing these professors and students from various branches.

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

In addition, O'Brien also simply nodded to them, which counted as 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 when he saw him some time ago, he had almost no change, the whole person appeared very calm, just standing on the podium like this, and couldn't see anything special.

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

But others were not so consistent.

The others mentioned here referred to those "professors."

Except for that "Cobra" professor, there were several other professors who came to the academy for assessment this time, and each looked quite imposing.

Professor "Seraph" from the North American branch, Professor "Paladin" from the Nordic branch, Professor "General" from the Central branch...

These professors, who sounded very powerful just by their names, made Tenjou Hikari's eyebrows jump wildly.

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

After all, for teachers, this profession was tiring and hard and paid little, but for those ordinary duelists, this was a hot profession.

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

The second thing...

"Our respected Professor Akaba Reiji has passed away."

Tenjou Hikari raised his eyebrows slightly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't stop rising, even wanting to applaud.

It's here—

Finally here!

The words he most wanted to hear were finally here!

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

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

After all, Akaba Reiji's death was probably inseparable from Tenjou Hikari.

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

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

The "Chief," "Trump Card" of the Duel Academy headquarters, Chronos's "Secret Weapon"...

Many of them now knew very clearly that Chronos's performance in the past professor gatherings must have been paralyzing them!

It's very simple—

Look at the records after Akaba Reiji's death!

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

Clearly, Chronos was not unaware of Akaba Reiji's conspiracy, and he was not without trying to stop Akaba Reiji, but had been waiting for an opportunity.

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

Now, Akaba Reiji was dead, Tenjou Hikari replaced Akaba Reiji and became synonymous with "Fusion" in the whole world, and the principal of the Duel Academy headquarters also resigned, Chronos became the general person in charge and acting principal of the academy, and was likely to become the real principal at any time.

Can't be underestimated, Chronos!

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

Perhaps it was because of this reason, and because of Akaba Reiji's lesson, that the professors here were very careful—especially at this time when Duel Academy professors from all over the world were invited to conduct assessments, they were even more cautious.

Maybe this was another conspiracy of Chronos, wanting to take advantage of this time to catch them all in one net!

Therefore, those professors who thought more were carefully looking at Tenjou Hikari at this moment, wanting to see something from Tenjou Hikari's face.

This made Tenjou Hikari a bit confused.

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

That should be looking at Judai, 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 looked at this matter with disdain.

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

Not to mention anything else, Professor Chronos's prestige in the school was quite good now.

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

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

"Teacher Evaluation Assessment."

At first glance, this matter had nothing to do with the students. Teacher assessment, it must be how to test, students might have the opportunity to see professors taking papers in a classroom, etc.

But—teacher assessment must have something to do with students.

Because there was one thing that would never change, no matter what.

That was...

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

If a teacher couldn't even teach students well, what kind of teacher was he?

And these professors were the heads of each academy, responsible for managing all teachers in the branch schools. If even the basic ability wasn't good, how could they be qualified to guide other teachers to educate students?

Therefore, the logic of this professor evaluation was based on this—

Teach students.

Next was the key point.

Many professors and students couldn't help but swallow.

After all, listening to Professor Chronos's meaning, he was going to let these professors teach them!

"In the next semester, a special professor course will be launched." Professor Chronos held the plan and said slowly, "The academy's large conference room will hold a special course every day. The course will be 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. And this final result will be included in the professor's evaluation exam."

So that's how it is!

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

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

But—

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

Although I don't know if Professor Chronos would leave such a loophole, Tenjou Hikari thought about the evaluation score of the Fallen Angel teacher before, and Tenjou Hikari dared to say.

Even if Professor Chronos thought about making money and expanding the scale of the academy, he must have been prepared at this time and definitely wouldn't just let the professors deal with it.

Akaba Reiji and other teachers left too deep an impression in Professor Chronos's heart.

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

"Of course, in addition to this category, there are other duel exams, which I won't go into detail here." Professor Chronos put away the plan in his hand, coughed twice, and finally finished saying everything he wanted to do.

If it were before, these ideas of his would definitely be rejected by other colleagues. After all, everyone was a professor, and no one was higher than anyone else. But now, he was the nominal acting principal and the actual next principal, so he could follow his own ideas and carry these things out.

"So that's it..."

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

Several professors couldn't help but laugh.

Although everyone was from a duelist background.

But being able to become a professor by "strength" was never purely relying on dueling level. They were not bad in all aspects of ability.

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

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

"This is too simple, Professor Chronos." 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 dueling, teach students dueling knowledge...

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

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

Dueling!"

He raised his right hand and clenched it into a fist: "No matter which branch, no matter which age, no matter whether the competition results are excellent, there is only one most important course to measure a Duel Academy student...

That is 【Dueling】!

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

"Practical combat?" Professor Chronos repeated.

"This guy is too cunning." "As expected of Cobra, as insidious as a poisonous snake." Several professors who didn't like Professor Cobra thought in their hearts.

That's right.

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

But, this course, Cobra could do it, and they could naturally do it too.

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

Tenjou Hikari laughed below.

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

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

And precisely because this is an indispensable part, 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 grade and each class."

Tsk...

Cobra cursed in his heart, and his movement of taking things out couldn't help but pause.

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 was improved, anyone could see that the students' level must have risen, and he could also take the opportunity to use this means to collect duel energy.

But didn't expect that Professor Chronos had been prepared long ago and sealed this road.

Several snickers sounded behind him.

Playing little tricks?

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

Tenjou Hikari looked at Professor Cobra's awkward expression and laughed again.

Regarding the professor evaluation, Professor Chronos 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 students, something like a "Practical Course" is of the utmost importance. Tiancheng Guang only mentioned it briefly to Professor Luonuosi, and Professor Luonuosi immediately agreed to and approved of Tiancheng Guang's suggestion.

One cannot let teacher evaluations affect the students' growth!

Although the situation this semester is different—not purely an exchange of students between academies, but rather a teacher evaluation and assessment—the people involved are also different. Professor Luonuosi is not Principal Jiaodao; while he may be a bit less courageous, he is not as soft-hearted as Principal Jiaodao and has his own principles.

Anything that might affect the students' growth will be vetoed by Professor Luonuosi.

In the end, under the watchful eyes of the students, several professors submitted the courses they wished to teach, and then, according to the teaching schedule already set by Professor Luonuosi, they were arranged for every day to come.

The courses were numerous and varied.

There was Demonology, Chivalry, and Strategy; each one looked different from the courses regular students were supposed to take.

But it must be said—the students of Duel Academy have even studied alchemy, so their acceptance of these courses was naturally very high.

Tiancheng Guang looked at the course schedule, stroked his chin, and curiously examined Professor Yanjingshe's course.

Spirit Power Studies?

Originally, he just wanted to see what Professor Yanjingshe was teaching, but upon seeing this course, he became interested immediately.
