After the college entrance exams, students all over the country start stressing over which university and major to choose.
Alchemy student: “My parents won’t let me go too far away, so I applied to an alchemy university near home. I really regret it now. The job market is brutal, and the competition is fierce...”
Beast tamer: “Spirit beasts are cute, sure, but their feed is way too expensive, and they’re picky eaters.”
Artifact crafter: “We artifact crafters have it even worse. We have to scour the land and sea for materials! And the things we make keep getting classified as contraband. If your family doesn’t own a mine, you’re doomed. There’s no future in this!”
Fortune teller: “Who has it worse than me? Tuition is the most expensive, and the future is uncertain.”
A fourth-year sword cultivator, who has already spent a year and a half hacking away at swords on a deserted island during an internship: “!!”
One sword costs tens of millions of spirit stones! My family used to have a four-wheeled car, but by my sophomore year we’d switched to two wheels. I can only tell people it’s because of global warming, and riding two wheels keeps you cool. After graduation, I can only work as a security guard!
School is hard, and life after graduation is even harder!
Sword cultivators: poor, poor, poor. Dividing line.
Theme: Be brave, hard-working wage slaves!
