Chapter 797: Chapter 816: Getting Along Well
The hospital’s dean was there to welcome them. Dean Zhu led the group of new students to the lodging area in the back. The clamor only died down after everyone had unpacked and started chatting.
By this time, everyone had been assigned to their lodgings.
Since there were quite a few people, they were still assigned four to a room. However, the rooms here were a bit larger than the ones at school, so there was no need to squeeze their luggage in.
After they put their luggage away, a notice came from the dean’s office over the internal comms system.
It would take another day or two to prepare the consultation rooms and set up everything needed to see patients. For that reason, everyone was to rest in the dorms for the next two days. The hospital would officially open for the free clinic on September 1st.
The notice also told everyone not to wander off. A local guide would come to the dorms the next morning, and anyone who wanted to go out should wait until the guide arrived.
Well, since everything was so meticulously arranged and they were in a completely unfamiliar place, no one was foolish enough to cause trouble. Besides, after such a long journey, even though they had rested on the Mecha, ’how can you call it relaxing if you’re not lying down?!’ So, everyone was quite well-behaved that day.
Just before bed that night, Qiuqiu’s roommate couldn’t help but ask about what had happened on the Hovercar.
"What’s your spiritual power level? I’m just asking, I’m just curious."
The roommate was refreshingly frank with her curiosity. "It’s just... Dean Zhu often says you’re one of the most exceptionally talented people in our department, and I wanted to know what someone the Dean praises so highly is like..."
’The question was pretty personal, but she was so open about it. It was actually kind of cute.’
It wasn’t a secret, so Qiuqiu answered, "It’s A+."
"Oh, okay."
"You’re *only* A+?" Realizing that didn’t sound right, she quickly added, "I mean, yesterday I was really far away from you—"
She gestured to illustrate. "You were at the front, I was in the back, and I could feel your spiritual power."
"It was a really strong wave, the kind that puts people at ease."
"I can’t do that, so I assumed you were already an S."
’What did she mean by that?’
"Are you A+ too?" Qiuqiu asked in return.
The girl sitting in the corner to her left nodded. "I am. My name is Gu Xiang. I don’t come to class very often, just like you. We’ve always just missed each other, so you don’t know me."
"Student Jiang Qiuqiu, can I ask how you... how you got so powerful with only A+ spiritual power? Your reserves are so vast..."
"Training." Other than innate talent, there was only one way to consolidate one’s spiritual power and expand their Spirit Sea: training.
Constant training.
Improving the precision of your spiritual power and the accuracy of your control over it can also achieve an effect similar to leveling up.
She briefly explained her philosophy on the matter.
Gu Xiang, who was on the bed across from her, started by listening and nodding like a chicken pecking at rice, but then she quickly held up a hand. "Student Jiang Qiuqiu, wait a second!"
"You two, are you asleep yet?"
"Nope. We’re listening to the master pass on her secrets."
"Can I turn on the light then?"
Once they agreed, she quickly switched on the light.
Then she went to the desk below, grabbed a notebook and a pen, and looked up. "Okay, Student Jiang, you can continue now."
"What are you...?"
"I’m taking notes."
Qiuqiu suddenly felt that this girl was kind of adorable.
So, she elaborated on her training methods a little more.
"Yes! This is great!"
"This method is great, though it seems a little difficult. Ah, Student Jiang, is this your secret?"
"I wrote it all down!"
About a dozen minutes later, Gu Xiang was hugging the notebook as if it were a mountain of gold.
