Chapter 128: Mock Exam, Begins!

  Day by day, university life is spent shuttling back and forth between the classroom, cafeteria, and dormitory, or sometimes just between the dormitory and classroom. Although university courses are extremely dull, they must be studied, and studied seriously. Because this relates to your life. It can be said that every bit of knowledge you learn, every piece of information you absorb, adds a little more capital to your survival. Without a doubt, so-called "practical exams" are comprehensive assessments of all the factors taught in daily courses, testing whether you have been studying seriously. If you study hard, when faced with danger, you may be able to turn disaster into opportunity. But if you slack off and waste time, hoping for a burst of talent in times of crisis, perhaps you can get through one or two exams, but do you want to always be scrambling at the last minute? Unfortunately, the price you pay will be your life.

  "Close combat", "hand-to-hand combat", "long-range combat", "tactical combat", "vivisection", "comprehensive survival training" and other "martial arts courses" occupy the boys' class time every day. Of course, after school, diligent ones return to their dormitories to practice, locking themselves in; lazy ones wander around the campus, and some even start flirting with girls, hanging out with them. This group of people's days are spent in a lively and colorful way. After all, no matter how hard it is, people can always find ways to have fun.

  As for the class of 1237, it's more or less the same. Except for occasionally chatting and training together to improve their coordination, most of them are still immersed in their own worlds. Pan Longtao spends all day with Zeng Fei, either practicing gunplay or debating which firearms are practical and which ones have poor performance. These two military fanatics are really passionate about it! As for Bai Jue, except for attending classes and eating meals, he's nowhere to be found, and every time someone asks him where he is, he says "I'm going to experience the beauty of life". The four sisters Tang Rouyu are always stuck together, rarely seen apart. Bai Jue jokes, "You four won't happen to be lesbians, will you?" and then gets chased away by Ouyang Mu's "Enchanted Arrow". As for Qian Qianqian, those who notice her will find that she's become even more taciturn, always closing her mouth, wearing a pure white priestess robe, holding a staff adorned with rhombus-shaped holy light stones, and exuding a sacred aura. Those who don't notice her... well, naturally they think she doesn't exist. Wei Ming, the muscle man, is even more enthusiastically training his muscles, with fitness equipment all over his room - it's hard to understand why he's so obsessed with working out. Bai Jue teases him sometimes, "Hey, Little Ming, don't turn your brain into muscle too!" and gets a huge fist from Wei Ming in response! As for Wang Ning? This guy's presence is getting lower and lower - sometimes you're standing next to him and you might not even feel his existence... which also means that this guy's strength is growing rapidly!

  The busiest ones are Yin Kuang and Li Shuangmu. In order to recruit some classmates with potential into Class 1237, the two of them have been busy non-stop. One time, Li Shuangmu said to Yin Kuang, "If I had known earlier, I would have only said 29th." Then Yin Kuang said, "I heard you received a basket full of love letters today?" Li Shuangmu calmly replied, "It should be said that I burned a basket of waste paper today." Yin Kuang was truly disdainful of Li Shuangmu's saucy response. Although Yin Kuang also received some pink letters with heart-shaped stickers, compared to Li Shuangmu's, they were like a small trick versus a big magic show. Perhaps the aura emitted by Li Shuangmu is indeed more attractive to girls than Yin Kuang, who is a nerdy loser.

  Apart from this, everyone is also gradually becoming familiar with the "society" of the university. Through introductions by seniors in their second year, people know that there is a "small sales department". It's called a "small sales department", but it's actually not small at all, and it's very big. In fact, it's a large-scale free trading market. Here, classmates can exchange valuable information, items, and equipment, and even some dusty treasures, depending on how bright your eyes are. Also, since the "grade evaluation" cannot be exchanged in the principal's office, there is a special store here that exchanges "grade evaluations". The exchange rate is approximately 1:3. That is to say, 3 points of F-grade evaluation can be exchanged for 1 point of E-grade evaluation. However, the exchange rate for A-grade and S-grade evaluations is 7:1. It's said that the exchange rate often changes. Additionally, it's said that after the "monthly exam" ends every month, a large-scale "auction" will be held here, selling all sorts of things, including scene task clues, various items, and occasionally even one or two broken legendary items, which often attracts big shots from all sides. It seems that the auction house is divided equally between Chongming and Houye, so no one dares to make trouble in the auction house, and safety is guaranteed.

  Of course, the currency that goes through is learning.

  The existence of "small vendors" can also be said to be a factor that stimulates the existence of "breeders". Because learning is money! This is also influenced by Chongming, and it's not easy to say that breeders will be eradicated. In short, the intricate relationships between them cannot be clarified in a short time.

  Yin Kuang did indeed find many good things inside. For example, the long spear of the Iron Blood Warrior, with its silver metallic luster and domineering appearance, Yin Kuang really liked it. The built-in "Pierce and Tear" attribute was truly eye-catching. Unfortunately, although the price on it was lower than that of the principal's, it was still frighteningly high. In addition, there was a magic scroll, "Resurrection Technique", with a bright name but actually only restoring life. However, the effect of instantly recovering 10 points of life really caught Yin Kuang's eye. Imagine if Qianqian learned it and combined it with her "Emergency First Aid" skill, they could instantly recover 20 points of life, and as long as there was enough magic value, or blue, they almost wouldn't have to worry about death again. Unfortunately, the price was 6000 learning points, with a 2-point E-level evaluation, and no room for negotiation, which made Yin Kuang's heart turn cold. Apart from this, there were many things that Yin Kuang wanted to buy but couldn't afford, making him grit his teeth in frustration. At that moment, he felt that he was really poor. Even at one point, he had made up his mind, "Once the number of recruits is sufficient, next time I will double the learning points extracted from those ordinary classes! After all, I have memorized their attribute skills, and even if they turn against me in the future, I can still suppress them!"

  The days passed, and before they knew it, the day of the mock exam had arrived. As Yin Kuang had already informed the principal about the mock exam, all classes were cancelled for the day. At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, Yin Kuang, Li Shuangmu, and the official members of Class 1237, as well as the temporary members who had been absorbed over the past few days, gathered in the classroom of Class 1237, which was located in Teaching Building No. 2, Zone 2, Room 110. If it weren't for Yin Kuang and the others leading the way, those temporary members would not have been able to enter Zone 2, as the activity area for freshmen was limited to Zone 1.

  Zone 1 is an absolute safe zone. In Zone 1, upperclassmen can torment freshmen to death, but they cannot kill them. This point is almost unknown to most freshmen, but people like Yīn Kuàng from the special class know it. Similarly, when freshmen fight each other, they also cannot kill each other. This is the principal's protective measure for freshmen. Zone 2, on the other hand, is a dangerous zone. Fighting and brawling can result in death.

  Back on topic, in a timely manner, three temporary members walked up to the stage one by one and gave brief self-introductions.

  First, a handsome young man said neatly: "My name is Zhong Limo, with the ordinary skill 'Rushing Fist', explosive power +2. Special ability 'Accumulating Energy', the longer the accumulation time, the greater the explosive power. The current upper limit is 5 points, requiring 10 seconds of accumulation. DNF Blue Fist Saint's 'Pass' level enhancement, bloodline skill is 'Fist Aura'. Additionally, there are 16 points of agility."

  Then there was a slightly cold long-haired girl, "My name is Bai Xue. Strength 12 points, agility 13 points, speed is the weakness. Comes with special skill 'Arrogant Snow Deceives Frost', charm +9 in special situations. Strengthened 'Passable' witch tribe bloodline. Bloodline skills 'Witch Doctor', 'Witch Blessing'. The weapon is a sickle." As she spoke, her hand turned around, and a black iron sickle that was even bigger than her appeared on the ground, very stylish.

  Next up is a short-haired, broad-faced youth with bronze-colored skin. "My name is Hong Zhong. I have 40 health points and my total defense is 22 points, which should be useful to you all, right? As for skills, the only useful one is 'Bronze Skin Iron Bones', which increases my defense by 4 points when activated. Additionally, I've also exchanged for the first level of 'Golden Bell Shield', which adds another 5 points of defense. How's that? Not bad, huh? As long as someone heals me, I can hold out for a pretty long time!" He said with confidence, patting his chest proudly.

  These three people were selected by Yin Kuang and Li Shuang after repeated consideration. Moreover, Yin Kuang and others did not dare to take any more, and had to come slowly for the time being. Because there is a rule in the establishment of the special class, "the number of deaths per exam shall not exceed 5", otherwise the 1237 special class will be disbanded. The three people's words were under the absolute control of Yin Kuang and others.

  After listening to their introduction, Yin Kuang and others exchanged opinions and thought it was okay. Then, Yin Kuang said: "Now, I want to tell you that you will temporarily become members of our 1237 class special class, but only as temporary workers. If you want to be converted to regular members, you still need to look at your performance later. Then, I'll ask you again, do you want to participate in our class's 'mock exam'? Because you are temporary members, you don't enjoy the treatment of the special class, so if you die, you will also be punished. You'd better think carefully."

  The three of them exchanged a few glances, and finally Hong Zhong said: "What's there to be afraid of? Anyway, staying in the ordinary class is also humiliating, might as well give it a shot. If we die, so what, it's not like we haven't died before."

  Zhong Limo also said: "Dying is nothing big, it's just that I don't want to die in a muddle."

  "Same."

  Yin Kuang and others nodded secretly, then Li Shuangmu stood up, stepped on the cigarette butt, and said: "So, Principal, let's start the mock exam!"

  A white chalk flew up and wrote red words on the blackboard, "Mock exam, please confirm!"

  Confirmed!

  Confirmed!

  “……”

  Then, all the original words disappeared, a blue chalk flew up and finally wrote out words of the same color as the chalk:

  Mock exam, start now!
