Chapter 363: National Academic High Schools Reassigned as Martial Academies!
.....
The recorded casualties were undeniably immense!
Seito had previously calculated the structural population metrics of the active living souls across the Planet:
Human Race: 2.5 billion
Plant-kin: 500 million
Monster Race: 2 billion
This brought the collective planetary population to a baseline total of 5 billion! For such a substantial portion to be completely deleted from the grid within a single day was a massive shift. If this catastrophic rate sustained down the line, low-tier entities would face complete systematic elimination!
However... from a macro perspective, this shift significantly restabilized the ecological balance of the world. Because of this, Seito had zero intention of deploying his personal authority to intervene, choosing to let the sovereign leaders of the respective continents handle their own administrative sectors.
The remaining faculty members were deeply startled by the data tracking updates, each falling into deep, quiet contemplation. Chairwoman Minami intentionally paused for a solid five minutes, allowing the staff to thoroughly process the gravity of the announcement.
"Alright, let's address the final agenda item."
The moment Chairwoman Minami spoke, the collective focus of the room snapped straight back to the podium. The staff remained perfectly silent, waiting for her to lay down the parameters.
A moment later, Chairwoman Minami unveiled the third structural directive:
"Now that we are firmly embedded in the supernatural era, the three dominant races have largely re-established baseline social order, and the Plant and Monster factions have finalized the construction of their respective sovereign nations."
"Moving forward, our academy will experience a massive influx of international transfer students arriving from the other two continents. This strategy is designed to tightly bridge the diplomatic relations between our factions."
"Concurrently, our nation will systematically deploy selected exchange students to enroll across the educational frameworks of their respective kingdoms."
Seito kept his expression perfectly stoic upon hearing this. From the looks of it, the global ecosystem of the Planet had successfully entered a standardized trajectory. There was absolutely no need for him to waste any more computational focus on local affairs. From this microsecond onward, his primary theater of operations remained the God-King Star Sector.
With that blueprint locked in, Seito casually tapped on his interface to review his active status track:
[Name: Seito]
[Divine Title: Space God-King]
[Rank: Late-stage God-King Realm]
[Divine Spark: Spatial Divine Spark]
[Talent: Spatial Mastery]
[Divine Power Required for Breakthrough: 210,000,000 / 1,000,000,000]
[Skills: Speed Dimension (Exclusive), Spatial Teleportation (Exclusive), Spatial Phase-Step (Exclusive), Spatial Dragon's Roar (Exclusive), Spatial Dragon's Breath (Exclusive)...]
[Weapon: Spatial Suit (God-King)]
His active Divine Power pool had logged another substantial jump. These fresh metrics were entirely the automated harvest siphoned and transferred back by his active mirror reflections. At this optimal grinding pace, it wouldn't be long before Seito successfully unlocked his peak God-King parameters!
"Now that these three directives have been officially briefed, let's discuss the comprehensive Institutional Reform Blueprint issued by the central ministry," Chairwoman Minami said, taking a smooth sip from her teacup.
That single sentence instantly hyper-focused the attention of every teacher in the hall. After all, an institutional reform blueprint directly impacted their long-term career security! Aside from Seito, Shizuka Hiratsuka, and Sae Chabashira—who held immense personal power—the rest of the staff listened with absolute urgency.
"Our academy holds the title of the Number One High School in Chiba City, primarily because our academic graduation rates have historically ranked the absolute highest across the sector."
"However, that baseline was established under a purely standard academic curriculum."
"Moving forward, the central government is launching a nationwide Martial Academy Transition Initiative!"
"The elementary and junior high school tiers will retain a foundational academic focus. However, the moment a student transitions into high school, theoretical academic hours will be slashed to a bare minimum. Conversely, practical combat iterations, martial skill assessments, and tactical matrix training will receive a massive expansion!"
"Furthermore, the standard university entrance examinations will completely pivot into an active, live-combat dungeon clearing trial!"
"Candidates will be graded strictly based on their real-time performance metrics inside the underground maze. As long as their scores hit the specified institutional cut-off bars, they can seamlessly secure admission into their desired universities!"
Chairwoman Minami's briefing was incredibly direct and transparent. Every single faculty member in the room grasped the structural rules immediately. Yet, a deep sense of surrealism filled their minds. The concept of a global "Martial Academy Era"—which had previously existed strictly within the boundaries of fantasy fiction—had actually manifested as a real-world system law. The sudden shift generated a profound psychological dissonance, though it was merely a matter of time before the population fully adapted to the new meta.
"While the specific homeroom assignments and faculty rosters will remain completely unchanged, the nature of the subjects you are authorized to teach has undergone an absolute overhaul."
"I need one representative teacher from each year tier to step forward and collect the updated curriculum matrices," Chairwoman Minami commanded, scanning the room.
Hearing the prompt, Seito rose smoothly from his seat. Simultaneously, the designated representative teachers for the second and third-year tiers stood up.
Zip—!
Executing a precise spatial flash-step, Seito materialized instantly right before Chairwoman Minami's desk. The seamless method of travel caused several lower-ranking faculty members to focus their tracking scouters on him with deep awe.
"This is the tracking sheet for the first-year tier. Distribute it among the staff,"
Chairwoman Minami said, handing a thick stack of finalized curriculum forms to Seito.
"Understood." Taking the documents into his grip, Seito executed another spatial blink, returning straight to his seat.
Settling back into his chair, he passed the remaining forms down the line to the adjacent teachers before locking his focus onto his personal schedule track.
[Sobu High Academy: First-Year Curriculum Matrix]
Since today was Wednesday, Seito directly reviewed the active scheduling blocks for the current day.
According to the Class E tracking sheet, the morning study period remained unchanged. The morning session comprised exactly four instruction blocks: God Domain.
Environmental Geography, God Domain Theoretical Systems, Supernatural Skill Assessment, and Tactical Combat Operations. The initial two blocks handled cultural and conceptual data, while the final two blocks were dedicated entirely to live combat training!
The afternoon session consisted of exactly two high-intensity blocks: Practical Performance Testing and Live Duel Synchronization. Scanning further down, Seito noted that his institutional profile had been officially reassigned from a history instructor to the primary lead for the Practical Performance Testing course.
The reallocation was entirely logical. After all, conducting a practical performance test required the classes to physically descend into the underground dungeons. With a late-stage God-King personally embedding with the student groups, the state's security margins were mathematically absolute!
After a brief scan of the remaining weekly layout, Seito shifted his gaze to the main faculty deployment log to check his active class rotations.
"Oh? My very first instructional block requires me to lead Class A straight down into the underground maze for a live performance trial?" Seito's brows rose in slight amusement.
His overall teaching load wasn't excessively dense, averaging roughly two to three active blocks per day. However, according to the system timer, he was scheduled to check into Class A in a few minutes to guide the elite group straight down into the dungeon layout.
Around him, the remaining teachers pored over their curriculum logs, their features rapidly twisting into deep, anxious grimaces. Although Chairwoman Minami hadn't explicitly stated the administrative performance penalties, everyone understood the underlying rules perfectly. In this hyper-competitive era, if a teacher failed to optimally raise the combat parameters of their assigned students, they would be swiftly purged from the academic framework. The old world's labor protections held zero leverage in the current supernatural meta.
"Alright!" Chairwoman Minami announced, her gaze sweeping across the anxious expressions of the faculty. "That concludes our emergency brief for today. Meeting dismissed!"
With those final words, she and the senior board members stood up and exited the hall. The moment the administrators cleared the doorway, the rest of the staff began to rise.
"Seito, what specific course did the system assign to your profile?" Shizuka Hiratsuka asked, turning her head toward him as she packed her files.
"Practical Performance Testing," Seito answered calmly. "My active block triggers in a few minutes. I need to take the elite group from Class A straight down into a designated Boss Dungeon to run a live-combat metric evaluation."
"That sounds entirely fitting for your parameters," Shizuka Hiratsuka nodded in agreement, a soft smile playing across her face.
