Chapter 4913: Side Story — City 01
I know that I am Ling Han, but aside from this na, why are my other mories completely blank?
Ling Han stood at the school gates in a daze, staring blankly at the words “Third High School of Zhou Su City”.
“Ling Han, what are you standing here for? Let’s go in!” A seventeen or eighteen year old young man walked over and said to Ling Han.
He was… Yang Qi.
A na imdiately popped up in Ling Han’s mind. Then, even more information appeared. This was his seat mate, and also his best friend.
“We have worked hard for so long. Whether or not we can enter the martial arts academy will depend on our performance today!” Yang Qi said.
“Martial arts academy?” Ling Han murmured, then the information in his mind suddenly exploded.
Fifty years ago, an astonishing change had suddenly taken place in their world. Wild beasts had mutated, and they were extrely terrifying. There were panthers that could snap an alloy in half with a single bite, golden condors that were even faster than a plane, and giant bears that had shattered a mountain with a single palm strike.
In front of such terrifying Foreign Beasts, humans appeared fragile and powerless. Unless they used nuclear weapons, even missiles could do nothing against the stronger ranks of these Foreign Beasts.
However, the heavens did not exterminate humans. This kind of mutation had happened to wild beasts, and changed humans as well. Nurous powerful cultivators had appeared, and they too could break mountains with a single punch, and firearms were ineffective against them.
After fifty years of conflict, the residential areas of the humans had already shrunk to one tenth of their original size. Only then had they barely managed to defend their territory, and the majority of their territory had been occupied by the Foreign Beasts.
Because only cultivators could stand against Foreign Beasts, the status of cultivators rose steadily. Though they were few in number, they had beco the hope of humans, and occupied the dominant position.
Schools also went with the trend and increased the number of martial arts classes. As long as one perford outstandingly, they would be able to enter the martial arts academy and more elites would be nurtured for humanity.
And once one beca a cultivator, that ant a great increase in social status. Thus, the students nowadays were all filled with yearning to beco a cultivator.
Today, for Ling Han and the other high school students, it was the day of the martial arts test. Once they passed, they would be able to enter into the martial arts academy, and from then onwards, start a completely different life.
If they failed, they could only continue their studies. In future, if they beca a white-collar worker or sothing, they would still be able to live a peaceful life.
If one wanted to enroll into the martial arts academy, they would have to et all three criteria, which were power, speed, and reaction speed.
Today, students like them would undergo these three tests.
In Ling Han’s case, he was hovering around the passing line for these three indicators. Thus, whether he could pass or not would completely depend on how he acted on the spot. If he was nervous or sothing, which led to poor performance, he would definitely have no chance of passing.
“Alright,” Ling Han said with a nod. He then entered the academy with Yang Qi.
They had not walked too far, when they heard a commotion behind them.
“Wang Hanchen!” A girl scread shrilly, as if she had seen so superstar.
And in truth, Wang Hanchen was indeed not much different from a superstar in the Third High.
Firstly, he was extrely handso, and was publicly acknowledged as the campus beau of the Third High.
Secondly, his old man was a deputy with real power in a certain branch of the city, and his uncle was even more impressive. He was a Level One cultivator!
There were a total of nine levels for cultivators, with Level One being the lowest and Level Nine being the highest. However, as long as one could beco a cultivator, even Level One would be superior to ordinary people, and was considered a special class.
With the guidance of this uncle, Wang Hanchen also far surpassed his peers in the three indicators. It was a sure bet that he would be able to enter the martial arts academy.
With such a background, Wang Hanchen was naturally publicly acknowledged as being tall, rich and handso.
“Ling Han, don’t be rash.” Yang Qi hurriedly grabbed onto Ling Han.
‘Hmm?’
Ling Han faltered for a mont. Then, new information surged into his mind. As it turned out, there was actually a grudge between him and this Wang Hanchen.
—Before the New Year, Ling Han still had a girlfriend, but Wang Hanchen had only used a little trick, and managed to steal his girlfriend away.
If that was all, Ling Han could only bla himself for being blind and falling for a materialistic girl. However, Wang Hanchen actually deliberately ca over to mock him. This completely enraged Ling Han, and he ca to blows with Wang Hanchen.
In terms of abilities, it was definitely Wang Hanchen that was stronger, but before he beca a cultivator, this kind of strength was also limited. Furthermore, Ling Han directly exploded with fury, and actually managed to fight Wang Hanchen to the point that both sides were severely wounded.
This matter also alerted Wang Hanchen’s father, who used his authority to force Ling Han to apologize. Otherwise, the school would expel Ling Han.
Ling Han’s parents were only ordinary employees, and had no background at all. For the sake of his future, Ling Han was forced to bow his head.
From then onwards, every ti Ling Han heard Wang Hanchen’s na, he would beco quite agitated.
Hence, Yang Qi naturally had to hold Ling Han back, to prevent him from going up and putting his life on the line.
Today was a big day for them, so no matter what, they had to choose to endure.
Ling Han saw Wang Hanchen, and sure enough, he was tall and slender, handso and confident. However, he clearly detested this person very much, but now, he only felt a kind of indifference, like a lion looking down on a lamb.
No matter how much you, a lamb, provoke your fellow beasts, how could a lion care?
He could just kill him directly.
He couldn’t help but find this strange. He wasn’t a high-ranking official with great power, nor was he an elite who could shatter a mountain with a single punch. Why did he feel that Wang Hanchen was extrely insignificant? Why did he not even have the right to be hated by him?
Where did he get this feeling of superiority from?
Wang Hanchen also saw Ling Han, so he deliberately turned around and walked over.
“From today onwards, I will enter the academy, and as for you—” Wang Hanchen showed a mocking smile, “I know that you are only hovering around the passing mark in the three indicators. My uncle has already issued instructions, and it is guaranteed that you will fail. There is no difficulty at all.”
“Additionally, don’t even think of taking the path of arts, because your results for the National Higher Education Entrance Examination would also be a ss!”
“Are you going to ask how I managed to do it?”
“It’s very simple, because my uncle is a cultivator!”
“Do you understand cultivators? Killing you is as simple as killing an ant!”
He said many things in a single breath, and an excited expression appeared on his face.
He had been born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Not only did his parents treat him like a treasure, but even his uncle, who had no ti to marry and have children because he had been cultivating, treated him like his own son. He doted on him extrely much. When had he ever been beaten to the point of having to go to the hospital to get stitches?
How could he easily forget this enmity?
Thus, he had indeed accepted Ling Han’s apology at that ti. However, he hadn’t planned to let Ling Han off the hook at all. He had only done this to make Ling Han lose hope.
“Wang Hanchen, you’re far too despicable and shaless!” Yang Qi shouted in anger. Was this really a high school student?
Just because of a fight, he was going to ruin soone’s future?
The martial arts exam, the national exam, these were two great events that would decide the fate of a young man for the rest of his life, but Wang Hanchen was about to destroy Ling Han.
It should be known that in the previous fight between the two of them, he had indeed been injured, but Ling Han was not much better off either. Furthermore, he was forced to apologize to Wang Hanchen, and pay so compensation. How could this matter still not be forgotten with that?
At the end of the day, it was also because Wang Hanchen had not only pried away his girlfriend, but also boasted proudly in front of him. Who would be able to tolerate that?
