Chapter 674: Outrageous

Parent-teacher meeting, huh...

After hearing this familiar yet strange term from Anna's mouth, Leon couldn't help but feel slightly dazed.

During this period of time, he had participated in a bunch of strange events, not only fighting wits and courage with enemies with all kinds of abilities, but even boarded a small planet more than 70,000 kilometers away from the ground, and had a solo face-to-face with the Aquarius Director in front of dozens of branch directors with positions equal to true gods.

Not to be too humble, although his strength is not very strong yet, he can't be considered a completely ordinary person. Plus the identity of that empty Duke, he now has the ability to influence the world... influence a very small part of the world.

And he, an important figure who just frustrated the Aquarius Director's conspiracy a few days ago and indirectly guarded the world, is now going to his younger brother and sister's school to participate in the parent-teacher meeting organized by the community school, and by the way, as the parent who makes the decision, discuss the further education issues of the two little bastards in the family...

It's very magical.

"What's wrong?"

After waiting for a while without hearing Leon's reply, and seeing that his expression was a bit dazed, Anna looked at him worriedly, and then leaned over and asked softly:

"Is your head still hurting? If your body is still uncomfortable, then you should just rest at home for a day. I can go to the parent-teacher meeting alone."

"Hmm... no, my wine has sobered up."

After noticing the worry in his sister's eyes, Leon felt a warmth in his heart, and then smiled and shook his head:

"Just thought of some interesting things, so I was a bit distracted. And my work is too busy, it's rare to have time to accompany you... The carriage is here, get on the carriage first!"

……

After the public carriage approached and stopped steadily on the side of the road, Leon reached out to protect Anna's head, watched her bend down and drill into the carriage, and then he followed and sat down in the seat by the window with her.

"By the way."

Seeming to think of something, Leon asked curiously:

"I remember the elementary school department of Jianqiao Public School has a total of? William and the others entered school more than half a year late, and it will be two months before they reach the second grade. Is it a bit too early to discuss future further education now?"

"Not early."

Anna shook her head upon hearing this, both happy and a bit worried:

"Unlike the public school I attended, Jianqiao Public School is the most top-notch batch of public schools. Regarding the future path of students, arrangements must be made very early."

"Generally, the first year of enrollment teaches some basic knowledge, and by the way, looks at which aspect has potential. The second and third years will try to cultivate more in the corresponding direction and carry out direction trial and error."

"If it is found that the talent in the determined direction is limited, then change to other directions. After basically determining the further education goal, the fourth, fifth, and sixth years will specifically start intensive learning."

"These three years, in addition to targeted subjects, also need to communicate more with corresponding high schools, participate in activities of corresponding schools, build good relationships with teachers, and strive to get admission qualifications without examination, or recommendation letters from corresponding school teachers..."

Good heavens, is it this competitive?

He didn't know much about this aspect. After listening to Anna's words, Leon couldn't help but click his tongue:

"William and the others are not even seven years old yet. Is it a bit too early to think about these things now?"

"It's really not early anymore."

Anna couldn't help but glare at Leon upon hearing this, and then explained:

"They enroll at the age of six or seven, and graduate when they are almost thirteen. By then, they should choose their future middle school. More than 90% of students can only go to ordinary middle schools, learn a technology that can make a living, and graduate just when they are sixteen and adult, then go out to fight directly. Even jobs like newspaper typesetters and factory furnace material masters are considered rare good jobs."

"Only less than 10% of students can enter those particularly good middle schools, work hard for three years, and then try to see if they can get recommendation letters and examination qualifications, and go to those famous universities for further study. How can they not be anxious if they don't start early?"

"..." Oh right, according to the kingdom's law, sixteen is already considered an adult, and universities are far from popular. Only a very small number of students with excellent family background and talent have the qualification to consider, and most people will work directly after graduating from middle school.

So although they still feel like "children," the significance of the last three years of community public school is almost equivalent to the "three years of high school" in my own cognition; being this ruthless and early with the competition is normal.

Thinking of this, Leon combined with what Anna just said and pondered for a while, and roughly understood the basic logic of the school's set of things.

Considering the kingdom's further education method, it is not a relatively fair unified examination, but each school recruits on its own and organizes interviews and written examinations on its own. There are more ways to "run" in this.

After all, even if there is no threshold for participating in the examination and interview, as long as you provide the graduation certificate of the community public school and the transcript that all basic subjects meet the standard, theoretically, as long as you pass the double test, you can enroll.

But there are opponents like Jianqiao Public School who have been "path investigation" in the second grade, and have done several years of intensive learning for the target school, occasionally participating in activities of corresponding middle schools, and being so familiar with the teachers responsible for interviews that even the examination scope can be figured out. Children from ordinary families and schools, without explosive talent, are definitely unable to squeeze in.

So it looks like equal opportunity, and the routes and endpoints everyone has to run are the same, but in fact, when you are still practicing running hard, others are already installing cyber prosthetics on their legs, and even directly starting to build teleportation portals to the endpoint.

Really outrageous...

After shaking his head slightly, Leon looked at Anna, who was a bit nervous beside him, patted her hand, and comforted her softly:

"Don't worry, William and Melanney are just naughty, but their brains are not bad. They are both smart. As long as they learn step by step, they will basically have a good future. What's more, my salary is not low, and... hmm..."

"In short, even if they can't go to the best school in the future, it won't be too difficult to help them find a good job. If it really doesn't work, it's no problem to raise them for a few more years."

"That's what I'm most worried about!"

Upon hearing Leon's words, Anna couldn't help but say angrily:

"A few days ago, the public school teacher distributed survey forms to the students, asking them to fill in their expectations for their future. Do you know what Melanney filled in?"

"Uh... what did she fill in?"

"She wants to find a husband who is both handsome and rich to raise her and spoil her! And then eat, drink, and be happy for a lifetime!"

"..."

Mentioning Melanney's "rice worm" dream, Anna couldn't help but clench her fists, and then gritted her teeth and said angrily:

"The teacher saw the form and talked to her for half a day, saying that she couldn't pin her future on this kind of thing, and let her rethink her plans for the future."

"This little bastard thought for a long time, and as a result, she deleted the part about finding a husband, and changed it to having you raise her for the first half of her life, and having William raise her for the second half of her life, and then playing with dolls, eating snacks, and drinking milk tea every day, happily for a lifetime!"

"..."

Okay... this form filling is really quite consistent with his cognition of Melanney...

"This... I just said it's a bit too early!"

Leon, who was shocked beyond words, was silent for a while, and then tried to persuade:

"Asking a child what they want to do in the future, of course, she can't figure it out. It's normal to give this kind of childish answer, and you don't have to be so angry... By the way, what about William? What did he fill in?"

"The answer he filled in... is very mature."

Anna took a deep breath upon hearing this, and said with despair:

"He wants to rebel, overthrow the Wang Gong, become the king himself, and then lead a large army to fight from west to east, flatten the Twelve Kingdoms, and rule the whole world."

"..."
