"I get it, don't pinch my nose, it's adorable," l shook her head, dodging Hexia's hand, and then held the cat in front of her as a shield, which in her life was not just a companion, but also a shield in critical monts that helped her refuse and block things she didn't like.
Taking advantage of l lifting the cat, Tilan took the gray moon cat from her hands, scratched its itch, and then held it in her arms to pet it.
The next day, Tilan once again boarded a flight back to Edith Academy to take care of so student council affairs, and it wasn't long after that a grand press conference was held in South First District.
Attending the conference were the directors of nurous high schools from the north, who announced at the press conference that they had reached a joint agreent with Edith Academy to carry out large-scale exchange training programs in the future.
At first, to outsiders, this seed like a common publicity stunt aid at drumming up buzz, but as ti went by, this seemingly banal joint statent resulted in earth-shattering changes in the future.
Over the next two years, at various competitions within the Federation Star Domain, winners began to frequently appear wearing badges of both Edith Academy and their own academy, and their speeches of thanks would likewise ntion both institutions.
The elites and geniuses from the Northern high schools who ca down to South First District received not only high-quality and abundant ntorship, but also the expansive network and financial resources of Edith Academy, offering advanced equipnt, Spiritual dicine, dical services, and precision super AI-assisted optimization, all of which allowed previously buried and not fully tapped potential to be highlighted.
Additionally, students from Edith Academy were sent in large numbers to high schools in the north for rotational exchanges, and many of them discovered new hobbies and talents. The clash of different cultural styles and school mottos also inspired many students in their studies of the Transcendent Sequence, loosening progress that had previously stagnated.
The exchange between the northern and southern high schools began to beco more frequent, and this mutually beneficial exchange also brought about more profound effects, which included the slow reconciliation between the forces behind the two parties, as old animosity between the "nativist faction" and the "Royalist Faction" was resolved.
Following these exchanges, advanced technologies were brought to the north, revitalizing various industries associated with these academies, and so in the north that had been buried also began to surface in the bustling South First District.
For instance, in the years that followed, there were more and more Transcendent pet shops opening in South First District, with various animals that possessed transcendental abilities, and could accompany people through the loneliness of urban life, appearing in the streets.
The lively little bird on soone's shoulder, the kitten napping on the checkout counter of a shop, the broad-winged birds soaring through the night sky, dogs carrying backpacks and equipnt, and though there were those who argued that this wasn't good for the animals and so on, such voices didn't spread widely, probably because the debate over "how can the fish know the joy of fish" was outdated.
Humans are humans, and there's no need to take a god's perspective on issues. Since we recognize that we are humans, we should prioritize human concerns, and besides, how do you know those animals aren't happy? With human guidance and help, many problems that affect the lifespan of animals, like disease, hunger, and cold, are no longer issues.
Beyond that, physical fitness and combat clubs for communication also started to spring up in the southern districts, and custors ca here not so much for the promise of enhancing transcendental strength, but rather treated it as a sport, like football or swimming.
The fists swinging amidst sweat, the direct physical blows, while relieving pressure, also conveyed the most candid emotions between humans, which is the desire to attack, "a life without the desire to attack is listless," which is the slogan displayed on the billboards of these clubs.
So theaters also began to feature retro-style puppet operas. Since they couldn't compete with imrsive movies in terms of verisimilitude, they might as well give up on realism and instead express through another form of art -- sotis these puppet operas provided an even larger space for imagination to the audience, and were not without rit.
Additionally, specialized maid service agencies began to erge among the various service firms, offering everything from dostic chores, child-rearing, cleaning to security, secretarial work, and even piloting flight vehicles.
The food scene was no different, with an array of restaurants highlighting mountain delicacies or offering retro dining experiences popping up, so even claiming, "Take you back to the Jade Skirt of 500 years ago," because in that distant past, Jade Skirt was indeed known for its high-end ingredients and beautiful environnts.
But all these developnts ca later. Ti rewound to shortly after Edith Academy and the Northern high schools released their joint statent, when various projects were just getting started, and Saint Ingo Academy was still struggling against Edith Academy.
"We're going to the Purple Distant Grass Star Domain at the end of the month for the 'Inverted Star Lake Sword Fighting' competition," Tilan said, kneeling on the couch and sipping tea, occasionally curling her toes on the cashre pillow on the sofa.
"It feels like ti is so tight, it seems like it was only last week that I returned to the academy," she said, putting down the cup and feeling sowhat lazy, thinking about taking a nap.
"You can't be so lazy, big sister Hexia," Annelli arrived in front of the girl with various docunts to be signed.
"This, and these, all require your signature, big sister Hexia," she tried to wake up the black-haired girl who was ready to sleep.
