Just like that, the matter of the study group was settled messily.
The homeroom teacher did not want to dwell on this matter for too long. He used the blackboard eraser to knock heavily on the podium and said loudly, "Alright, let's put everything else aside. Now, I want to talk about the college entrance exam!"
Get an undergraduate degree!
The students shuddered and forgot about the farce just now.
"If you just want to get into a better vocational college and find a job that doesn't have to worry about food and clothing in the future, then you can prepare for the exam with peace of mind. You just need to enter the exam hall one and a half months later. But the legendary undergraduate exam is a completely different concept. There's a saying that you have to pass three tests. Soon, the first test that will decide your fate will begin!"
The homeroom teacher told everyone that the entrance exam was divided into three parts: the preliminary exam, the second exam, and the final practical exam.
The first test would be conducted within the school itself. It would test one's maximum punching strength, hundred-meter dash, and marksmanship. The number of people who could pass was limited. Even if it was a key regional school, more than half of the people would be eliminated.
The second stage was at the education department of the region. They used the superbrain virtual system to test the examinees' mental strength, and the passing rate was also very low.
The third stage was the college entrance examination in mid-July.
The college entrance examination was divided into theory and actual combat. In terms of theory, undergraduate and junior college were the same.
But during the practical test, the Second Type Examinees who took the exam for higher vocational colleges went to the monster research center to fight against the biochemical beasts tamed, modified, and controlled by humans.
On the other hand, the Type 1 examinees who took the college entrance examination went to the edge of the city, near the fog, the real battlefield!
"This year's test is brought forward compared to the previous years. The first round will be held in a week. Our school has a quota of 150 students to advance.
"Everyone, don't think that a hundred and fifty slots are a lot. You should know that there are a hundred people in the two rocket classes. Based on previous years' experience, the remaining six classes can at most get fifty to sixty slots. Each class will get around ten slots. The top fifteen students in our class can still make a run for it, but the rest of us will be in danger!"
Every time the homeroom teacher said a sentence, he would use the blackboard eraser to knock on the podium, causing everyone's expression to turn serious.
The students at the top of the class were calm and composed, while the students at the bottom had already given up. Only the students at the top of the class were discussing among themselves.
"Teacher Wang, why does the undergraduate exam have to be so complicated? Can't it be done in July, just like the specialized exam? This way, we can still have one more month, and we can fiercely push forward! "
Someone said unwillingly.
"It's very simple. It's because we have to escort a large group of examinees to the edge of the fog to fight against real monsters. We have to spend a lot of resources to summon the army and powerful fighters to protect the examinees, and what Dragon City lacks the most are resources."
The homeroom teacher said coldly. "Besides, the path of superhumans is a path of life and death. It's an incredibly glorious path, but it's also incredibly dangerous. If you're not an outstanding person with extraordinary talent, there's no need for you to have wild hopes. It'll only bring you more worries. It'd be better for you to give up on that thought as soon as possible and focus on getting into a specialized college!"
His words caused many students to lower their heads.
Being in the same class, many students had already accepted their fate. These days, a diploma from a junior college was also very valuable. As the saying went, "Even a junior college is a person above others"!
The student from before was still muttering in a low voice, "This isn't fair. Just because I didn't do well in the 100-meter race doesn't mean that I can't have a sudden flash of inspiration when it comes to actual combat …"
"Fair?"
When the homeroom teacher heard this, he frowned and slapped the lectern so hard that he jumped up. "There's no such thing as fairness in this world. When Dragon City transmigrated, we had nothing, but we had to face the invasion of zombies and monsters. Should we talk about fairness with zombies or with monsters?
"To survive in danger, superhumans were slowly born. Superhumans stand at the top and have all sorts of special rights, but everything they enjoy doesn't fall from the sky. They have to use their fists, weapons, and even teeth to snatch it from the monsters' mouths. This is the greatest form of fairness!
"I'm telling you, don't just look at the superficial glory of superhumans. Did you know that the death rate of superhumans in Dragon City last year was more than five times that of normal people? And every year, during the Type 1 Practical Test of the national college examination, the number of injured and dead people is set. Last year, the number of injured people was one hundred, and the number of dead people was ten. This year, it's doubled!"
"What?"
The students cried out in surprise.
The number of injured and dead people had doubled. Didn't that mean that the national college examination this year was going to be very dangerous?
A thought appeared in Meng Chao's head. The government had definitely noticed some clues and knew that the Monster War was about to become more intense. They had to train up stronger, tenacious, and fearless super warriors as soon as possible.
Hence, the practical test of the national college examination this year was serious.
"Do you understand now?" the homeroom teacher said. "We have to filter out the normal people who aren't suitable to become superhumans as soon as possible. We're doing this for the sake of your lives."
The students' expressions were very dark.
"Are we really going to be so ridiculous that we're going to use up all of the quota?" someone said.
Everyone thought about it and agreed with him. In the past, there were not many cases where the quota was used up. Usually, at most, three to five people would be injured or disabled, and one or two would die. In fact, there were two years when they were lucky and none of them died, so everyone was happy.
"Don't think about it. The national college examination this year is different. I can tell you that the university has already sent out a notice to inform the parents. Soon, the Survival Members Association, the military, and the city's education department will issue a notice together. The injured and dead examinees in this year's national college examination will receive the same treatment as the injured and dead soldiers.
The homeroom teacher said resolutely, "In other words, this is not a simple exam. This is a real war!"
The students were shocked.
"I'll be honest. For my own sake, I really want to have a few more undergraduate students in my class so that they can become superhumans in the future."
The homeroom teacher squeezed the blackboard eraser and whispered, "But for the sake of everyone's lives, if your results aren't ideal and you don't have much confidence in your fighting strength, I don't suggest that you take the national college examination, really."
His words could be considered as him speaking from the bottom of his heart.
The students digested this shocking news with pale faces, but Meng Chao clenched his fists.
He longed for power even more. "Alright, go to the testing room and check your strength.
"Alright, go to the testing room and see your strength. If you don't have the speed of the sprinting champion on Earth and the strength of the heavyweight boxing champion, you won't even be able to pass the test in the university. Then, you don't need to worry about it anymore!" Wang Longjun waved his hand.
…
In the end, they were all heartless youngsters. They were still sighing in the corridor, but when they reached the cultivation center, their fighting spirit rose again.
If the death quota was doubled, there would only be twenty people left. Based on the ratio of examinees, it was far less than 1%. No one believed that they would be so unlucky.
Besides, they were born in Dragon City, so they understood one thing. Without high risks, there would be no high rewards.
Since the difficulty of the national college examination had increased by leaps and bounds, the government would not just watch them die. They would definitely give them more cultivation resources.
Just as they expected, the homeroom teacher told them that as long as they passed the test in the university, the cultivation resources provided to the examinees would be doubled compared to the previous years.
In the past, the examinees would only be given one bone cell growth hormone every three days, but this year, they would be given one a day!
With great rewards, there would definitely be courageous people.
"With our weapons and fists, we will expand Dragon City's living space and make a name for ourselves. Today is the day!"
When they walked into the testing room, the teenagers were already so excited that they started shouting.
Of course, they still had to be humble.
"Ah, we had monsters all night last night, so we didn't sleep well. We definitely won't be able to bring out our strength today. It's over! It's over! We're going to screw up!"
"Ace Student Wu, stop pretending. Everyone knows that your maximum punching strength is among the top five in class. I'm the one who's really pitiful. I sprained my ankle yesterday, and today, I can only limp. I might end up running one hundred meters in more than ten seconds. Sigh!"
"Ace Student Zhao, keep acting like a sleaze. Later, if you manage to run 9.7 seconds, I'll treat the entire class to milk tea. Do you dare?"
"Please, be human. All of you are ace students and ace students in class, so why are you acting like you have myasthenia gravis? Is there a need for that?"
The students laughed and joked around as they carried out the test.
Just as Meng Chao expected, all of the burly men who pretended to be even more delicate than flowers and were whimpering coquettishly.
But when they stepped on the track and stood in front of the punching force tester, they looked like little bunnies that had turned into big bad wolves. Their whimpering turned into howling.
This was especially so for the people who had learned Super Reckless Bull Force with them last night.
Even though it was not as ridiculous as when Chu Feixiong increased his maximum punching strength by 3% in one go.
But if it increased by 0.5%, they might be able to get one or two marks in their national college examination, and it was enough to get rid of a lot of their competitors.
Besides, Reckless Bull Force was not a simple fist technique. It was a very scientific method to execute force through one's entire body, and it was very helpful when it came to increasing a person's sprinting speed.
For a period of time, surprised cries rose in the testing room.
"Ace Student Wu broke his own punching strength record! In just a few days, his punching strength increased by 0.5kg! And he didn't sleep well? What a monster! Animal! Scum! Scum! "
"Ace Student Zhao, he broke the one hundred meter dash record with a time of 9.57 seconds! He broke Usain Bolt's world record! Limping, my foot! Milk tea! You must treat the entire class to milk tea! "
"Chu Feixiong! Big Brother Xiong! Maximum punching strength of 233.5kg! He broke the class record again! Even the boxing champion Tyson from Earth is nothing! "
The students cried out, and when they looked at Chu Feixiong, their gazes were filled with shock and admiration.
The homeroom teacher's expression was also very complicated.
The average score of the class and the class record were broken again and again. When Meng Chao took a closer look, he found that all the students who reached a breakthrough had joined the study group. His twenty years of teaching experience had been shattered, and he became even more interested in Super Reckless Bull Force.
Meng Chao put his hands in the loose pockets of his old and tattered uniform and leaned against the wall in a very comfortable manner. With a smile, he watched the girls run one hundred meters and deliver their maximum punching strength. Their strength was reflected back on their bodies and stirred up waves.
"You piece of trash."
Suddenly, Zuo Haoran walked over. There was a friendly smile on his face, but he spoke in a voice that only the two of them could hear. "Even if Chu Feixiong breaks the record, gets into college, and becomes a superhuman, so what? He is him, and you are you. If he soars to the top, you will forever be trash! "
Meng Chao quirked his eyebrows.
The class rep's trash talk attack appeared.
In his previous life, because his mother had been injured by the abnormal beast, he had been agitated and had gotten into a huge argument with Zuo Haoran.
Even when he was arguing in front of everyone, he was very polite. He would say things like "Meng Chao, you're going overboard."
But when there was no one around, he would spout vulgarities. Tsk, tsk, tsk. It really made Meng Chao's ears want to vomit.
Of course, Zuo Haoran had not lost his rationality and was just venting his anger.
Instead, he was using trash talk to provoke Meng Chao and lure him into attacking him.
In his previous life, Meng Chao fell for it. The class rep used a sinister method to leave hidden injuries in his body, and they acted up during his national college examination, which was why he lost his ranking and did not even manage to get into college.
But in this life?
Meng Chao's lips curled up as he enjoyed Zuo Haoran's performance.
