56: Chapter 52 Late 56: Chapter 52 Late The annual Admissions assessnt is coming, and in Jupiter City, populated mainly by Huaxia immigrants, it is colloquially known as the “College Entrance Exam.” This city is also one of those that place a high emphasis on Admissions.
Most parents wake up earlier than their children, preparing bland and stomach-friendly food as much as possible, and ready to accompany them throughout the day.
After personally dropping off their children at school, they wait outside the school gates.
That’s why most school gates have temporary corridor-style structures built where parents can rest and drink water.
“Mom, I’m leaving.”
“Be careful on your way.”
Luo Di heads to the exam alone, as his parents are ordinary workers and it’s not easy for them to take leave.
Mainly, they also trust in Luo Di’s abilities, believing that accompanying him the whole way might add unnecessary pressure.
Riding the sa bus,
Seeing the sa scenery along the way,
Arriving at the sa school,
However, this group of parents crowded at the school gate imdiately disrupts this calmness,
Even soone as composed as Luo Di feels a slight tension pass through him as he maneuvers past these anxious parents.
Suddenly, Luo Di feels sothing about to strike him from behind.
Instinctively, he turns around to dodge and prepares to counterattack.
A high kick just brushes past Luo Di’s cheek, executed by Gao Yuxuan.
“Truly worthy of being the top student at our school, able to react to such a sneak attack.
We have cultural subjects first this morning, let transfer so skills to you!”
Gao Yuxuan casually places his hand on Luo Di’s shoulder, feigning a serious skill-transferring deanor.
A year ago, such a shoulder touch would have made him uncomfortable, but now it helps Luo Di shake off the recent tension as he heads towards the examination hall.
Admissions will be completed within 24 hours,
With cultural subject tests in the morning, logical reasoning tests in the afternoon, and the most crucial physical test at night.
Furthermore, students are allowed to leave the school temporarily after each subject test, only needing to return half an hour before the next one starts.
The dayti written exams go smoothly for the group of four,
Next, they just need to exert their full strength during their favored physical test at night, and their twelve years of diligent study and training will culminate in a perfect Admissions finale.
As the afternoon logical reasoning test concludes, most students choose to leave the school,
They are not thinking of eting the parents waiting outside, but to use the rest ti before the physical test to get intravenous injections off-campus.
This way, the drug can act more directly on the body, and also allows the dosage to be controlled within the permissible range for the exams.
Preparations outside the school before the physical test have traditionally been carried out for several years,
Consequently, less than fifty students remain on-campus, heading to the cafeteria for a al,
Along the way to the cafeteria, Luo Di and his group spot many new facilities not belonging to the school,
On top of every school building, playgrounds, small woods, and empty spaces behind the cafeteria, as long as the space is sufficiently large, there is a 1x1x3m tal container, with the letters “A” representing the General Administration conspicuously marked on its surface.
Guards surround each container, prohibiting anyone from approaching.
With very few people dining in the cafeteria, the provisioning of als switches to made-to-order.
The class president still eats heartily, unconcerned about the test starting in two hours.
Today, however, he still moderates his portion, as overeating could affect the upcoming test.
After the al,
Everyone clears their plates and brings out their physical test-related items onto the table for inventory and inspection.
Gao Yuxuan: standard field knife (toothed back), a box of silver needles*.
*The material and size of the silver needles have been revised and changed according to Simulation Practice.
There are smaller, finer needles for flicking and larger, more lethal thick needles.
The silver needle box is also specially designed, with a ring-shaped magnet for better attachnt to prosthetic arms.
Wu Wen: Eight-sided Han Sword (modernized), Investigator Battle Dress (simplified version), a small bottle of oral stimulants.
Li Xiaoying: double-edged claw knife, excitent pills.
Luo Di: Zombie Blade.
While most students choose to use stimulants, Luo Di and Gao Yuxuan opt not to.
However, their reasons for abstaining vary.
Gao Yuxuan cos from a family well-versed in traditional Chinese dicine, able to achieve similar effects through self-administered acupuncture, which doesn’t result in points deducted for dication.
Luo Di, on the other hand, never uses drugs; he can quickly focus in critical monts.
In his view, like the murderers in movies who never rely on drugs, once they lock on their prey, they focus entirely on the hunt until the target is completely dead.
With only half an hour left before the physical examination.
The class leader suddenly rembered sothing, “Oh no!
I left my clothes in the dormitory, I’ll rush back and get them!
You guys don’t wait for , go ahead to the sports field.”
“Class leader, I’ll go too.” Xiao Ying, who has been living at school, has gotten used to acting together with the class leader.
But this ti, the class leader strongly objected, “No, Xiao Ying, you go first, get used to the track ahead of ti, don’t let my reasons disrupt your rhythm.”
“Alright.”
“Everyone go ahead, I’ll be back soon.”
The class leader returned to the dormitory at his usual running speed, which also served as a warm-up.
However,
Luo Di, watching the class leader disappear from the other exit of the cafeteria, felt sothing was off.
After a whole year of interaction, he knew how ticulously the class leader thought.
The success of Class 5 in hygiene, discipline, and campus activities multiple tis was inseparably linked to the class leader’s managent.
At such a crucial point, how could she suddenly forget sothing as important as the Investigator Battle Dress?
Gao Yuxuan ca over and patted Luo Di on the back,
“It should be alright.
The pressure of the college entrance exam affects everyone differently, and under great pressure, many people change.
During the al earlier, the class leader was also quite silent for a long ti.
The pressure from her family is significant, and even soone like her can feel nervous at this juncture, let’s go on ahead.”
“Okay.” Luo Di tried his best to believe in this reasoning.
The three arrived at the athletics field,
To improve the efficiency of the physical examination, the entire senior year was divided into two groups, one at the athletics field for speed assessnt, and one in the gym for strength assessnt.
Class 5, which Luo Di belonged to, was part of the forr, and now they needed to gather and count their numbers by class.
This process was always managed by the class leader,
But when the whole class assembled, the class leader was still not back,
Ruan Zhijun was also very puzzled, as the class leader had never been late for a gathering during the entire three years of high school,
“Does anyone know where Wu Wen went?”
“The class leader forgot sothing in the dormitory, she should be back soon, I’ll count the numbers,” said Gao Yuxuan, the deputy class leader, stepping forward, and quickly completed counting, everyone was present except for the class leader.
Ruan Zhijun imdiately tried to make a call from his smart bracelet but it indicated that the connection couldn’t be made,
Of course, this might be related to tonight’s special physical test.
The entire Fourth Middle School had already implented a signal blockade to ensure that derivative information related to the combat did not leak.
“There are only five minutes left before the physical test starts, and it’s estimated that we, Class 5, have about 20 to 25 minutes left.
Who is in the sa dormitory with Wu Wen, go to the dormitory building and hurry her up.”
“I’ll go!” Xiao Ying imdiately raised her hand.
“I’ll go too.”
Luo Di had already sensed sothing was off, and the class leader’s delay added to this suspicion.
He needed to check it out himself; as long as he could find the class leader and rush over, they would definitely make it in ti, and they would still have more than ten minutes to rest and adjust.
Gao Yuxuan wanted to go along, but since the class leader was not here, he needed to handle so of the pre-exam tasks as the deputy class leader, so he had to stay at the sports field waiting.
[Dormitory]
Although the scale of Fourth Middle School was large, due to the system, non-senior students were not allowed to live on campus.
Because of this, the number of boarding students was not large, and the dormitory buildings were divided into one for males and another for females, each housing two-person rooms.
In front of the female dormitory building,
“Luo Di, it’s not very convenient for you to go in, I’ll just go in and call the class leader.”
Xiao Ying placed her smart bracelet on the card scanner, and the automatic door opened.
Because all the students had gone to gather at the playground, the entire first-floor lobby was unusually quiet, and it seed the dormitory supervisor wasn’t here either.
Snap!
Just as Xiao Ying was about to step in, Luo Di grabbed her arm.
“Wait.” While holding onto Xiao Ying, Luo Di stood at the doorway and shouted, “Is anyone there?”
As there was no response from the dormitory supervisor, who should have been on duty, it probably wouldn’t be an issue for Luo Di to enter during this special ti.
“I’ll go with you.”
