Chapter 90: 89, College entrance examination officially begins

Translator: 549690339

The martial arts college entrance examination in this world lasts for a total of nine days.

On the first day, the morning session is a written exam assessing theoretical knowledge, and the afternoon is a physical fitness test.

From the second to the eighth day, there is a week-long practical exam where martial arts candidates from the province will be sent into a forest to survive in the wilderness.

The ninth day involves a test for compatibility with Genetic Fusion and mechanical modifications.

Today, June 7th, is the first day of the college entrance exam.

Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan got up early, had breakfast together, and went to school to take the exam.

“Xiao Chen, I’m so nervous.”

“I’m afraid I’ll actually pee during the exam.”

“I’m afraid I won’t do well.”

Along the way, Shen Qinghan kept talking non-stop, expressing her nervousness to Lin Zichen.

Lin Zichen, seeing her like this again, couldn’t be bothered to comfort her.

He had already comforted her so many times.

She was already wearing a diaper.

Her scores in theoretical knowledge were stable in the top five of their class.

But she just had to be nervous.

Her mental stability really was terrible.

What needed to be done has been done, and now it’s up to her to overcome it herself; more words were needless.

After arriving at the school.

The two of them, not in the same venue, quickly went their separate ways.

Lin Zichen hadn’t gone far when he thought better of it, still somewhat worried about Shen Qinghan, so he turned around, came back and called out to her, “Han Han, wait a moment.”

“What’s the matter?”

Shen Qinghan stopped, turned around and looked at Lin Zichen with a puzzled expression.

Lin Zichen saw she was nervous enough to shake a little, hesitated, then pulled her into his arms for a gentle hug, and encouraged her in a soft voice next to her ear, “You have studied the theory very well, and you’re wearing your diaper, just do your best and don’t be nervous.”

Feeling Lin Zichen’s body heat and listening to his heartbeat, Shen Qinghan found herself, perhaps due to psychological effects, seemingly less nervous.

After a while, she said softly, “I will try my best, and you should too.”

Lin Zichen replied softly, “Yeah, let’s both do our best.”

Right after he spoke, he noticed many passing students stopping to look at him hugging Shen Qinghan, with some even taking out their phones to take photos.

Realizing it wasn’t appropriate to do this so publicly, he immediately let go of Shen Qinghan.

Afterward, the two separated and headed toward their respective examination rooms.

Arriving at his examination room, Lin Zichen, with nothing better to do, sat and passed the time by pondering novel plotlines.

Soon, more than half an hour had passed.

The exam officially began.

Lin Zichen received the test paper, glanced over all the questions once, and finished everything in less than half an hour.

Four words, all it takes is hands.

After finishing, he placed his exam paper on the desk and weighted it down with his pen.

Then, he continued to idly think about the novel’s story.

In the meantime, the boy at the next table tried so hard to peek at Lin Zichen’s paper that he almost went cross-eyed.

Lin Zichen noticed the boy’s gaze and turned his head slightly to look at him.

At the moment of eye contact, the boy smiled awkwardly but politely and continued to slant his eyes trying hard to sneak a glance at Lin Zichen’s test paper.

Lin Zichen didn’t move the paper, leaving it as it was.

The seats in the exam room were quite far apart, so if that boy could see the answers on a neighboring table’s paper like that, it was his own skill, and he deserved to copy.

Standing vertical jump of 1.62 meters.

One-arm lifting of a 125kg barbell.

These results placed her among the very top of the school’s female students, an unquestionable academic achiever.

But compared to Lin Zichen’s performance, it was like an ant to an elephant, not even remotely on the same level, with no comparison whatsoever.

Not to mention compared to Lin Zichen, even against most of the boys in the class, it was worlds apart.

In this mutated Earth, the gap between geniuses and ordinary people had been further widened.

The same was true for the gap between men and women, also further widened.

It felt like the winner takes all.

Around five in the afternoon, the physical assessment drew to a close.

Lin Zichen’s three recorded data undoubtedly placed him as the number one of the entire field, far ahead of the second place, in a league of his own.

Almost simultaneously, the results of the written test taken in the morning were out.

Everyone could check their scores on their phones.

Lin Zichen immediately checked his and, as expected, he scored a perfect 100.

Shen Qinghan did well too, scoring 82 points.

Others like Wang Shujie, Lu Gang, He Yu, their scores were similar, all in the 80s.

In particular, He Yu scored only 80 points, not even as high as Shen Qinghan.

It wasn’t that He Yu performed poorly, but rather that Shen Qinghan performed too well.

It could be said that being under the influence of Lin Zichen for a long time was indeed very beneficial.

As the saying goes, you are influenced by the company you keep.

“Xiao Chen, the week-long field combat assessment starts tomorrow, and I wonder what that forest which serves as the test site will be like. Just the thought of it makes me feel a bit nervous,” said Shen Qinghan after checking the physical assessment results, her nerves tangling at the prospect of being sent to survive in a deserted forest for a week starting tomorrow.

Seeing her getting nervous again, Lin Zichen was somewhat speechless.

His childhood friend never had a moment when she wasn’t nervous.

“Xiao Chen, we can’t bring anything during the combat assessment, no diapers, what should I do if I have an accident?” Shen Qinghan wondered aloud, furrowing her delicate and lovely brows over this critical issue.

Lin Zichen replied, “If you’re in the forest surviving in the wild and you need to go, just find a tree to hide behind and squat to take care of business, you don’t need to worry about this at all.”

“I’m not worried about the daytime, I’m mainly concerned about wetting my pants while sleeping at night. It’s uncomfortable to wet your pants in the forest with no change of clothes,” she continued, her unease growing as she spoke.

Lin Zichen felt this was not a big deal and bluntly suggested, “That’s easy to solve, just sleep without pants.”

“Alright, that does seem like a solution,” she conceded.

By the time this conversation reached this point, Shen Qinghan realized she was being a bit too anxious and stopped discussing her worries with Lin Zichen from there on out.

In a room in Shanhai City,

A college-aged young man was chatting over drinks with a middle-aged man in a mask.

From their posture and demeanor, the conversation seemed very casual.

But the content of their conversation was unnervingly chilling.

“The field combat assessment starts tomorrow. Here are 10 special seeds for you to take. Make sure to use your status as a safety officer to help the organization control 10 talented individuals,” said the man in the mask, casually extracting a small, elegant wooden box from his chest and tossing it on the table.

The youth picked up the wooden box, opened the lid, and saw 10 sinister red plant seeds inside.

The size of peanuts, each seed’s surface was covered with pulsating veins, looking like tiny animal hearts.

“Do this well and I will introduce you to the higher-ups in the organization, making you an official member,” said the masked man to the youth.

“I’m not in a rush to become an official member. What I want now is to get an Exotic Fruit,” the young man replied lightly after closing the lid of the box.

The masked man shook his head, “Young man, your vision seems a bit shortsighted. An Exotic Fruit can at best help you evolve to a regular seventh rank, but joining the organization promises countless benefits in the future.”

“Just to talk about evolution, if you can become an official member of the organization, evolving into an Advanced-level Creature will no longer be a dream.”

“Plus, if you do well, you might even get to experience the company of the organization’s Flower Fairy,” he continued, his voice laced with lingering pleasure, “Last year, I had a taste of the Flower Fairy’s touch, very smooth.”

Flower Fairy...

Very smooth...

The youth was swayed and quickly changed his tune, “You’re right, becoming an official member of the organization has a better cost-benefit ratio compared to getting just one Exotic Fruit.”
