"There are also three places in the class."
These words finally aroused the interest of some people. The three martial artists in the class and Zhou Yang looked at each other with glistening eyes.
The remaining martial artists who were expected to advance to become martial artists were also secretly encouraging them.
Of course, this had nothing to do with Lin Yao and Zhang Heng, who were in the same boat. Although Zhang Heng was envious of the rewards mentioned by the instructor, he also knew that it was impossible for him to be in the top three.
"Sigh … With these resources, the gap between them and us will be even wider."
As he said this, Zhang Heng was extremely envious, but he was not too resentful.
Concentrating resources on geniuses was a necessary choice in this world. After all, this was not a stable world. Humans could barely build cities to protect themselves, and there were large wastelands outside the cities that were occupied by beasts and some terrifying creatures.
Those creatures would also attack the cities from time to time. The reason Lin Yao had made up his mind to go out of the city the day before yesterday was because he had heard that a city 500 miles away had been breached and 500,000 people had died. This made him feel a sense of crisis, so he had taken the risk.
In such a dangerous world, as well as the spirit energy that individuals could master, humans could only concentrate their resources on the powerhouses and cultivate top powerhouses so that they could hold up the sky for humans.
At the same time, the powerhouses who had received the resources also had to hold up the sky. Humans often educated themselves about their responsibilities, and the military deterrence of 70 million soldiers played a second role.
In the face of a siege, the entire city would be under military control. Ordinary martial artists, women, and children who had not received the resources could retreat to the shelter, but the geniuses had to step forward. Those who retreated would be severely punished, and the more resources they received, the more severe the punishment would be if they escaped.
Therefore, it was good to receive the resources, but once a crisis arose, they had to be at the forefront. The 70 million martial artists in the military ensured that the geniuses had to step forward.
"There are not many geniuses in the military, but the fighting is fierce, and it is easy for powerhouses to emerge from such fights. Unfortunately, the death rate there is too high. However, it is precisely because of the high death rate that it is the home ground of the civilians."
The basic foundation of the commoners was the seventy million iron-blooded soldiers. Commoners who had no talent but wanted to stand out would join the army and fight. Perhaps countless would die, but some would eventually grow up. And these experts who grew up would also care about the commoners because of their origins. This was why the commoners would not be oppressed by the experts.
It was because of the seventy million iron-blooded soldiers that the Divine Land could be stable, and all the warriors who wanted to become Celestial Dragons were killed.
Of course, martial artists still had special privileges. After all, powerful martial artists were welcomed everywhere. Some cities even offered sky-high settlement fees for martial artists to live in. Some rich people in the city would even raise funds to support the city in recruiting martial artists. Ordinary people would also contribute money and effort.
There was naturally a reason for this.
First of all, although China still had a government, the wilderness was full of Magical Beasts and terrifying existences, so the government could not immediately provide support to other places. For example, the siege crisis that happened a few days ago. Although the Divine Continent Army finally arrived and killed all the Magical Beasts that invaded the cities, the damage and casualties caused by the Magical Beasts' invasion could not be recovered.
It could be said that human reinforcements were very important when the Magical Beasts attacked the cities, but the garrison troops and the powerhouses were also very important. The defenders in the cities had to hold on until the reinforcements arrived.
This kind of defense required a local army, and more importantly, powerhouses. After all, this was a world of martial artists where one person could lead an army.
Within the cities, ordinary people with low status hoped that the towns they lived in would be protected by powerhouses, as this was related to the lives of them and their families.
Some powerful bigwigs were in a similar situation. When the nest was overturned, no eggs would remain intact. If the towns they were stationed in were destroyed, they would also face the crisis of death. Even if they did not die, they would be court-martialed. Even if they were not the ultimate cause, they would still have to be dismissed from their posts.
Therefore, within the cities, both those in power and ordinary people welcomed warlords to settle in. The more powerhouses, the better.
This also gave martial artists special privileges. However, due to the deterrence of the seventy million iron-blooded soldiers, this privilege would not reach the level of the Celestial Dragons. This also achieved a balance.
At the same time, because those in power were not stupid, they all offered high settlement fees to the powerhouses. This made other cities not very attractive, except for some super cities.
Under these circumstances, a peculiar situation had arisen. The higher-ups in the cities were all coveting the geniuses from their hometown.
In Lin Yao\'s previous life, it had been very easy to go to other places, so moving was common. However, in this world, it was not easy for humans to leave the city and go to other places. Therefore, every family had deep feelings for the place where they lived. At the same time, the parents, family members, classmates, and good friends of the geniuses were also in the cities due to the inconvenient transportation. This made it difficult for them to leave their hometown.
In most cases, it was easier for cities to recruit geniuses from their hometown. The number and strength of warlords were related to the safety of the city, the safety of countless people, and the reputation of those in power.
Therefore, each city was very willing to invest in the cultivation of geniuses in their own cities.
It was impossible for everyone to get the same amount of resources, and they were only given to the group of people who could become powerhouses.
How could one tell the difference between a genius and a powerhouse? Literature might need to be praised, but for martial artists, the battle was over.
Therefore, every year, each city would hold various competitions to find the geniuses in their city. This year's Senior Year Competition was one of the competitions held by the city.
The country provided resources because everyone in China was a part of the country.
The city provided resources because it wanted to retain the geniuses in their hometown and let their geniuses soar higher.
There were targets in the school, which was the base and cradle for cultivating talents. If there were geniuses in the school or a large number of martial artists advanced, the school coach or principal would receive bonuses and political achievements. If there were any mistakes, the punishment would also be imposed. Therefore, the school\'s authorities would also think of ways to attract investments and train students.
The class coach also had targets. This was also the reason there were three places in the class.
The dangers of this era prevented the world from being complacent. Instead, there were layers of hierarchy, and there were clear rewards and punishments. This way, humans could resist the great crisis brought about by the Spirit Energy Revival.
Unfortunately, the Spirit Energy Revival had brought about a greater individual difference, and a powerhouse was stronger than 100 ordinary people. Therefore, most of the benefits fell on the geniuses, even if they were divided into classes. However, due to the deterrence of the military, these geniuses would be at the forefront when they grew up. Therefore, Lin Yao and the others were not jealous to the extent of hating them.
"The top three in the class will be rewarded. This is to accumulate strength for next year\'s college entrance examination, but it has nothing to do with us. Let\'s go."
Shaking his head, Lin Yao and Zhang Heng went to the side to train.
After a day of training, school ended very soon.
When he left the school, it was still early, and Lin Yao felt a little strange.
\ 'In this world, people try their best to avoid working and going to school at night. They often get off work and leave school in the evening. Hotels at night are also severely cracked down on. Is this because there are abundant resources and there is no need to work overtime, and martial artists need to have strong willpower?
\ 'Well … it also has something to do with military boxing. Military boxing can only be practiced a few times a day, so it\'s useless to stay in school.\'
This was Lin Yao\'s guess, but he had a feeling that this matter was not that simple. However, these things had nothing to do with Lin Yao now, so he didn\'t think too much about it.
Although he felt that the tree-planting system was useless, Lin Yao had an idea. Therefore, he didn\'t give up on going to the orphanage.
However, before going to the orphanage this time, Lin Yao first took out his wallet. He took out all the red envelopes and pocket money that his predecessor used to hold.
Lin Yao\'s current family was very ordinary. They were neither rich nor poor, and they received very little red envelopes and pocket money every year. However, his predecessor had been a thrifty person. Over the years, he had saved up the pocket money that he received little by little and passed it on without spending it. As a result, Lin Yao, who had taken over, had a savings of 4,000 yuan.
\ 'This money has been a great help.\'
Holding the wallet in his hand, Lin Yao got busy in the surrounding shops.
Soon, Lin Yao bought a large number of car toys, cloth dolls, and snacks.
Because there were too many items, the bag that Lin Yao was carrying was even bigger than his own.
\ 'Fortunately, my physical fitness is very strong now. Otherwise, I would have to take a taxi.\'
Carrying the big bag that was even taller than him, Lin Yao ran directly to the orphanage. To his surprise, Qin Xue and Yan Yan, who Zhang Heng had heard about and only came once a week, were also there.
His arrival also attracted the attention of everyone in the orphanage, including the two girls and the children.
It could not be helped. The bag he was carrying was too big and eye-catching.
"Why are you here again?"
"It\'s normal for an idler like me to come here. Why are you, a genius, here again? Don\'t you need to train?"
While speaking, Lin Yao also greeted the children around him and opened the bag he was carrying.
As the backpack was opened, a large bag of toys and snacks was displayed in front of everyone, and the children cheered.
Then, sitting next to the backpack, Lin Yao distributed the toys and snacks to the many children one by one.
The scene of the distribution of toys also made Yan Yan swallow the words that she wanted to say.
On the contrary, Qin Xue said happily, "Yanyan, I told you that Student Lin Yao is not a bad person."
"Who knows? Maybe he is trying to make you lower your guard."
"Indeed, you should never lose your vigilance."
These words made Qin Xue look at Lin Yao angrily again.
"Student Lin Yao, I am speaking up for you."
"That\'s why I\'m reminding you."
It was always fun to distribute toys, especially when Lin Yao had come to volunteer yesterday. He had asked these little guys about their hobbies, and the toys he took out were all their favorites. This made the little guys in the orphanage feel even more grateful to Lin Yao, and they kept calling him Big Brother.
Upon hearing the praises of these sensible children, Lin Yao could not help but smile. This heartwarming scene also made Qin Xue and Yan Yan have a much better impression of Lin Yao.
"These must have cost a lot of money. Are you sure it\'s okay?"
Yan Yan was the one who spoke. She was very smart and could tell from some details that Lin Yao was not rich.
In response, Lin Yao just shrugged his shoulders.
"It\'s still bearable. Don\'t worry, I won\'t do anything beyond my capabilities. I didn\'t expect the famous Ice Snow Princess to care about others."
"It seems that I have a very bad reputation at school."
"It\'s true, but it\'s not that bad either. Arrogance, indifference, and arrogance are all common among boys. It is rare to see them scold others. After all, you are very beautiful, and men always give preferential treatment to beautiful people."
"Beautiful? Have you changed your target from Qin Xue to me? "
"No, I don\'t want to embarrass myself, let alone get into trouble."
Beautiful women were troublemakers.
Lin Yao did not make it very clear, but Yan Yan understood what he meant.
"Are you that cowardly?"
"How is this cowardly? I am following my heart."
Lin Yao was not averse to beautiful women, but he was somewhat chauvinistic. He was prepared to gain enough power before thinking about these romantic things.
While the two of them were talking, Qin Xue had also finished her work and walked over.
"Student Lin, Xiaoqing, Xiaofeng, and the rest are very happy. Thank you. I was right. You are really a good person, but I\'m really sorry. I really don\'t want to fall in love before the college entrance examination."
"Uh …"
Qin Xue\'s words made Lin Yao very speechless. He could feel that Qin Xue was sincere when she praised him for being a good person, but he felt even more helpless when she rejected him.
More importantly, Lin Yao had been labeled as a good person before he could confess his love. This made him feel a little helpless.
Lin Yao looked at the figure of a junior high school student, which was similar to his sister, Lin Xiaodie, and rubbed her little head.
"Don\'t be in love and see everything as a pursuit."
This was considered a response to Qin Xue\'s words. However, for some reason, Qin Xue was a little unhappy after he said this.
"Humph! You were obviously the one who pursued me first. How dare you criticize me?"
Lin Yao was caught off guard by this retort, but he could not refute it. Although this was his predecessor, he had indeed confessed first.
"Pfft …"
Yan Yan burst out laughing at his helpless expression. Lin Yao was also a little stunned by the scene of snow and ice blooming.
While chatting and joking, Lin Yao and the two girls finished distributing the toys and went home after a while.
While walking on the road, Lin Yao actually admired the two of them a little. He knew his own situation very well. Lin Yao knew very well that he did volunteer work only to accumulate energy. He was different from the two kind girls who did it out of their true intentions. While admiring them, Lin Yao also liked them.
Well, he liked them because of his friends. After all, people would not hate kind people too much. Instead, they would make friends with such gentlemen.
It was already late when he returned home. Something that Lin Yao was concerned about happened again. He discovered that there was a lack of nightlife in this world. The feasting and revelry of his previous world did not exist in this world. Although the roads were not completely devoid of people, there were not many vehicles and pedestrians. There were also a large number of guards in special uniforms patrolling the streets.
Lin Yao had even been interrogated several times.
\ 'I always feel that something is wrong at night. There is no entertainment at all … Forget it, it\'s useless to think about this. I should take care of myself first. I hope what I did today is useful.\'
After returning home, Lin Yao exercised three times, increasing his physical limit by 0.3% (0.03%) again. Then, he took a shower, sat on the chair, and reviewed the cultural lessons. Lin Yao only studied for an hour because he came back a little late.
Then, when he felt that it was about time, he sat on the bed, looked inside his body, and looked at the energy points floating on the sapling. When he saw the numbers on the sapling, Lin Yao finally heaved a sigh of relief.
\ 'Sure enough, my guess was right. Obtaining energy points requires not only sincerity but also ability.\'
