“Very good. The courses related to Explorers will be opened in your selection programs later. Pay attention to them when the time comes.”
The instructor smiled when he heard this. Seeing that Zhou Jing had calmed down so quickly, he could not help but nod secretly.
This person’s acceptance mindset was not bad, unlike the new students he had interacted with in the past. Most of them were skeptical.
The instructor stood up, not bothering to stay any longer.
“Someone will tell you the other details during class. My work is done.”
Zhou Jing asked curiously, “Then what should I do next?”
“You don’t have to do anything special. Just attend classes in the academy and work hard to complete your studies. After graduation, you’ll be a Preparatory Explorer. This identity won’t affect your daily life. You just have to wait for your enlistment in peace.”
The instructor waved his hand.
Zhou Jing blinked and asked with interest, “Speaking of which, what’s the recruitment condition? Can we only wait passively? Is it possible to take the initiative to apply for exploration?”
The tutor smiled, he was not surprised by this answer.
As expected of a young person, when he heard the truth about the multivariate planes, he had a strong desire to learn. He could not wait to participate and see other worlds.
...
He understood this quite well. This was how he had reacted back then.
The instructor was not stingy with his guidance,
“You don’t have to worry about this problem. Planet Aquamarine is a new colonial planet and is very short of people. It’s not like there are many reserve explorers on old planets… On old planets, there are even reserve explorers who wait for more than ten years before they are recruited for service. We definitely don’t have to wait long.
Of course, there’s a standard for recruitment in the Exploration Bureau. It was related to one’s personal resume. The better one’s academic and employment resume are, the higher the chances of being recruited.”

“The Exploration Bureau basically does not require long-term service. They only need you to serve at least once. You can also choose to accept the subsequent recruitments according to your wishes.
If one’s contributions during the military service are outstanding, it will be easier for them to receive the next enlistment. They could even accumulate merits and obtain an official rank in the Exploration Bureau, giving them the authority to become a cadre and form an official shuttle team. These people will have priority in obtaining the qualification to shuttle every time there was a plane intersection.
Therefore, what you need to do now is to improve your GPA and enrich your resume in the academy. This way, after you graduate, you will have a higher chance of being selected by the Exploration Bureau for your first military service.”
“By the way, many official shuttle teams have the authority to check the resume of every year’s academy graduates and choose new members which catches their eye. If you’re chosen, if you have the chance to join the official team directly and obtain the priority qualification to travel — so try your best to make your resume in the academy look better.”
Zhou Jing perked up and remembered it in his heart as he expressed his gratitude.
“Thank you for your guidance.”
“You’re welcome. It’s my duty. I’ll leave first. There are other people whom I have to speak to.”
The instructor nodded and left the room.
Zhou Jing got up and closed the door before sitting back at the table. He no longer kept a straight face, and his expression became quite interesting.
“I really discovered something extraordinary today…”
Zhou Jing’s eyes were bright.
Through the astral travelling device, the main world had traveled through many astral realms over the years. Not only the Mutant World, but there were definitely many other dimensions that had their footprints.
If he could obtain the results of the exploration of these dimensions in the main world during the course, then when the dimensions converged, he would be able to use the Apostle Travel System he had to enter. He would no longer have to slowly figure things out like in the Mutant World and would be able to obtain a large amount of intelligence advantage.
This was definitely much better than fighting and exploring alone.
Moreover, even if the Exploration Bureau did not recruit him, he could still use the Apostle Travel device and did not need to rely on them.
With the intelligence advantage he had, he could even let his apostles come into contact with the Explorers of the main world and obtain some advantages through disguise or deception.
In fact… it was not impossible to let the Astral Apostle pretend to be an Explorer!
Many ideas popped up in Zhou Jing’s mind, causing him to fall into a state of perpetual excitement.
He could find an opportunity to test it out in the future…
After being happy for a while, he suddenly realized a problem.
“If many Supers are part-time explorers, then the main world has a lot of manpower. I wonder how many people the main world will send out during each confluence period. If there are many people, it shouldn’t be a problem to crush the other dimensions. However, in the Mutant World, they seem to have been hiding in the dark all along and have no intention of jumping out at all. There are also not many signs of activity in history… Could it be that for some reason, they don’t interfere in the development of the other dimensions?”
Zhou Jing pinched his chin and pondered.
The main world did not interfere too much with the other Astral Realms. There must be a special purpose, but he did not know what it was.
However, he felt that although exploring the other dimensions was a cause that all the countries carried out together, their respective policies and plans might not be the same. Therefore, the countries might not be on the same side and not necessarily have a cooperative relationship.
Although the Interstellar Government allowed all the countries to join forces to develop the universe in the main world, and there had been no war for a long time, making it look very peaceful, it was impossible to completely eliminate friction and conflict.
In the distant dimension, outside the public eye, the explorers of the various countries were Supers with powerful combat strength. If they met each other in the other world, without the restrictions of the main world, they might not necessarily be harmonious… To put it in an extreme way, perhaps this was a secret battlefield that would be used as a way to resolve conflicts. They could restrain each other and kill their own explorers without fear that authority could intervene.
“I hope I’m being too extreme.”
Zhou Jing shook his head. If there was a hostile relationship between explorers, then this profession was probably not that safe.
In addition, the freedom of being an Explorer was also worth thinking about.
Logically speaking, such secret work would not be carried out in the form of a “part-time job”. Since the restrictions of an Explorer were so loose, there must be some drawbacks to the profession itself.
.
The first thing he thought of was the difference in the flow of time between the astral realms.
Because he was traveling in his Astral Apostle body, the difference in time flow did not affect his main body much.
However, if the explorers entered personally, didn’t that mean that they had to endure the problem of their lifespan rapidly decreasing?
He had been sent out on an adventure, but he did not know when he would return.
Perhaps this was the reason why the Explorers were launched in the form of a part-time job. If they continued to serve, perhaps in just a few years in the main world, the Explorers would already be old in the alternate realms… Therefore, other than their first military service, the Exploration Bureau did not force the Explorers to respond to the recruitment.
Most explorers would probably not be willing to waste too much of their life in another dimensions after they got tired of the novelty of astral travel. They could not accept such an outcome.
Moreover, if an accident happened and he could not return to the main world, would they not have to die alone in an unfamiliar dimension?
In Zhou Jing’s opinion, the frequent rotation of explorers proved that the main world had yet to find a perfect way to deal with this drawback.
In fact, he still had many doubts, such as how the astral travel device could ensure that explorers were placed on living planets, the unknown filters faced by the device, and so on. However, he could only ask about these later. He hoped that he would explain them during his courses.
“It feels like the water is really deep in this area…”
Zhou Jing sighed and opened the selection courses in his academy app. At this moment, there was an additional compulsory course, “Explorer Training”.
If he completed the course in advance, he would not have to be like the chosen explorers on the old planet who only received training after being recruited.
“Ding Ling Ling…”
At this moment, the doorbell rang urgently.
Zhou Jing went over to open the door. Li Xiaoyin, Xu Lingyun, and Zhang Xiao rushed in the moment the door was opened, as it turned out, they were here to visit him.
“Jingjing, have you agreed to receive special training?” Li Xiaoyin asked impatiently.
“Yes, I’ve accepted.”
“That’s great, so did I!” Li Xiaoyin was overjoyed.
“I knew it…”?Zhou Jing was not surprised.
Previously, Li Xiaoyin had also been called to talk alone. It was most likely an invitation to the Explorer training. With Zhou Jing’s understanding of her, the chances of her agreeing were basically 100%.
To ordinary people, the fact that the multidimensional plane existed was too impactful. It was impossible for Li Xiaoyin to let go of such a novel thing as exploring the other world… Or rather, no one among the freshmen could resist this opportunity to participate in the truth of the world.
“I didn’t expect such a fun thing to happen. I’ve decided that our main direction of employment in the future will not be civil servants, but explorers!”
Li Xiaoyin was extremely excited.
“What’s going on? What’s an Explorer? Sister Yin dragged us over excitedly. I’m still in a daze.”
Xu Lingyun was puzzled, and Zhang Xiao also scratched his head. The two of them were assistants, so they were not eligible for any private conversations.
Hearing this, Li Xiaoyin immediately explained to them in excitement.
As long as Zhou Jing and Li Xiaoyin agreed to the agreement, Xu Lingyun and Zhang Xiao, as assistants, would be qualified to know. In the future, they would also accept the Explorer course together, and even serve together. This was the rule of the Exploration Bureau.
After hearing the explanation, Xu Lingyun and Zhang Xiao’s eyes widened. The worldview they had established in the past 20 years had been impacted.
“There’s actually such a thing…”
Xu Lingyun’s mouth was agape.
“It’s simply a fantasy.” Zhang Xiao hugged his head with both hands and muttered to himself in a daze.
“You don’t dare to believe it, right? It was the same when I first heard it. You’ll get used to it.” Li Xiaoyin placed her hands on her hips and deliberately spoke in an experienced tone.
“Calm down. What we should consider now is to learn more skills in the academy. At the very least, we have to complete our studies in the academy before we can be recruited by the Exploration Bureau, so there’s no need to be so excited.”
Zhou Jing waved his hand and advised.
Hearing this, Li Xiaoyin immediately gave a thumbs up and teased, “You’re actually so calm even after hearing such a big matter. As expected of Jingjing, you’re really calm.”
This awkward bragging is too unprofessional… Zhou Jing did not react at all.
Xu Lingyun and Zhang Xiao digested it for a while before finally accepting the reality. Seeing that Zhou Jing and Li Xiaoyin had agreed, they could only follow suit. In this manner, they had reached a consensus.
...
Due to the special conditions of Planet Aquamarine, many new students were selected for the Explorer training, which gave many of these supernatural immigrants a great shock.
However, after the shock, there was the intense excitement of touching the truth of the world. Many new students accepted the reality, and basically no one refused to become a reserve-duty Explorer.
Zhou Jing did not show any abnormalities, pretending to be like the other freshmen who had learned about this for the first time.
Because there was an additional “Explorer Training” course, Zhou Jing adjusted the direction of his course. It took him another two days to truly determine his course.
Other than various cultural courses and general courses, he only chose to take one course in superpower knowledge. It was a superpower system on the martial path that was used to match his physical enhancement superpowers. It was a common combination that was moderate but very practical.
Most Supers chose this way of thinking. They wanted the Supers system they learned to match their original superpowers and complement each other.
Although Zhou Jing wanted to learn more superpower knowledge, each person could only register for three classes at most. They could not be replaced midway. If they did not practice well, they would be expelled from class and lose a class spot, reducing their overall number of courses.
Because his energy was limited, he chose not to bite off more than he could chew. Therefore, he decided to only go for one course to see the effect first before considering adding other courses in the future.
As the thousands of new students racked their brains to choose a class, seven days passed in a flash.
After this batch of supernatural immigrants passed various physical examinations and confirmed that there was no problem, they were finally released from the quarantine dormitory and officially joined the academy.
The enrollment ceremony allocated by the department also came as scheduled.
