YM778.TV Chapter 94: 93, Fitness Test
In the quiet forest.
Lin Zichen looked at the boy lying motionless on the ground, completely passed out, with a face full of astonishment.
Wasn’t it six seconds for a hundred meters?
And being able to lift a 750kg barbell with one hand?
I didn’t even use force, so how did he fall with just one punch?
He suspected that the boy now sprawled unconscious on the ground was bragging yesterday, and his actual strength wasn’t as formidable.
Otherwise, how could he pass out from a single punch?
You should know, that punch just now wasn’t strong, it was only meant to cause pain.
Not wasting time on such trivial matters, Lin Zichen soon squatted down and took all 28 score cards from the boy for himself.
“Xiao Chen, he won’t have any issues, right?”
“No worries, he’s just fainted, I hardly used any force with that punch.”
Having said that, Lin Zichen quickly stood up and left with Shen Qinghan.
In the time that followed.
Lin Zichen continued to focus on training Shen Qinghan’s wilderness survival skills, without rushing deeper into the forest.
And then, in the blink of an eye, three days passed.
The two went from the initial outer periphery, gradually entering the depths of the forest.
During that time, Shen Qinghan’s wilderness survival skills became increasingly strong.
Whether it was finding water sources, making fire by friction, or fighting wild beasts, she looked more and more professional.
Especially when hunting a wild boar, she managed to kill it without injury, using just a sharpened bamboo stick combined with exceptional wisdom and skill, and enjoyed a delicious roasted pork meal.
That afternoon.
After Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan had searched all the score cards nearby, they continued on toward the deeper parts of the forest.
As they were about to enter the deepest area, they encountered He Yu, who had just come out from there.
At this time, He Yu had a black eye and his upper clothing was ragged, as if he had been in a scuffle.
After asking, Lin Zichen learned that He Yu had been gang-beaten by several top students from Changzhou City, and all of his score cards had been taken.
“He Yu, do you want to join us?”
Shen Qinghan extended an invitation to He Yu, thinking that since they were in the same group in class, it was fated they met and should definitely team up.
However, He Yu decisively refused, “Forget it, there’s no challenge in being on a team with Zi Chen, I’d rather continue as a lone wolf. In the remaining three days, I’ll go back to the outer areas to snatch other people’s score cards.”
Upon hearing this Lin Zichen couldn’t help the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.
There’s no challenge teaming up with me, but there’s a challenge in robbing weaker examinees?
What’s this, bullying the weak and fearing the strong?
After parting ways with He Yu, Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan continued heading deeper into the forest.
The closer they got to the heart of the forest, the more formidable the examinees they encountered.
Along the way, they were ambushed by other examinees over ten times.
They had been accosted by lone examinees.
They had encountered acts of righteous gang beatings.
But without exception, all these examinees who came to rob them ended up being thoroughly plundered by Lin Zichen instead.
Time quickly passed and another three days went by.
It was the seventh day of the practical assessment, also the final day.
That morning, Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan arrived at the deepest part of the forest, only to find that the exotic beasts had already been killed off by others.
Lin Zichen wasn’t surprised by this.
He knew that on the first day of the practical assessment, many geniuses headed straight for these low-level exotic beasts in the forest’s depths, paying no attention to the score cards along the way.
He guessed that by the second day of the assessment, all the beasts here had been killed off.
“Xiao Chen, what a pity, if we could have come earlier, you definitely would have won the title of genius beast slayer.”
As Shen Qinghan uttered these words, she thought to herself that if it weren’t for Lin Zichen being busy training her wilderness survival skills these past few days, the Exotic Beasts here wouldn’t stand a chance against the other exam candidates.
Contrary to her, Lin Zichen didn’t feel any regret.
With security personnel and cameras everywhere, killing the Exotic Beasts wouldn’t allow consumption, so it was meaningless.
It was better to take this opportunity to properly train Shen Qinghan’s wilderness survival skills.
As for the title of genius beast-slayer, he didn’t care at all.
As long as he had enough scorecards in hand to help himself and Shen Qinghan achieve good results, that was enough.
Soon, the last day of the practical assessment passed by.
Under the guidance of the security officers, all the students left the forest, returned to the entrance point, and boarded their respective school buses to return home.
“The practical assessment was so torturous, it’s finally over!”
“Yeah, these seven days were extremely tough, once I get home I’m going to have a big meal and sleep well!”
“Tomorrow is the compatibility test, the decisive moment for one’s life!”
On the bus of Class 1, Grade 3, the students were chatting energetically, making a ruckus.
Lin Zichen, with earphones in and oblivious to the noise inside the bus, quietly watched news videos on his phone.
Sitting beside him, Shen Qinghan was also wearing her earphones and listening to music, resting on his shoulder and asleep.
During the seven days of the practical assessment, Shen Qinghan hardly got any good sleep, and now she was extremely sleepy.
Engrossed in the news, Lin Zichen suddenly felt a tap on his shoulder from behind.
He took off his earphones and looked back to find that it was He Yu who had tapped him.
Upon seeing Lin Zichen turning around, He Yu immediately pointed towards Wang Shujie and Lu Gang sitting behind them and said with confusion,
“Something is off about these two, I personally saw them team up to kill a demonic beast deep in the forest. With their personalities, they should be showing off right now, why are they so quiet?”
Hearing this from He Yu, Lin Zichen also glanced at Wang Shujie and Lu Gang.
He indeed noticed that the two of them looked a bit off, as if they were preoccupied with heavy thoughts.
However, he didn’t pay it much attention, thinking that the two might have been outshone by the geniuses from other schools and were now brooding over it.
Two hours later.
The bus returned to Shanhai High School.
The moment the bus stopped, Wang Shujie and Lu Gang, who were sitting near the back, hurriedly got off and left, walking faster than anyone else, which looked very unusual.
Lin Zichen saw this scene and found it strange, but he didn’t dwell on it and soon got off the bus with Shen Qinghan to head home.
In the past seven days, they had only taken two baths, and now their bodies felt so uncomfortable that they just wanted to go home and thoroughly clean themselves inside and out.
“Xiao Chen, tomorrow we have the compatibility test for Genetic Fusion and mechanical modification. Just thinking about it makes me so nervous, I’m afraid I won’t be able to sleep tonight because of the anxiety,” Shen Qinghan said worriedly on the way home.
Hearing her talk about her nervousness this time, Lin Zichen didn’t think like before that she had a bad mindset.
Because the compatibility test was the most important part of the university entrance exam, determining the upper limit of each candidate’s future, it was only natural to be nervous.
Unlike the previous written tests on theoretical knowledge, the physical fitness test, and the practical assessment of wilderness survival skills.
The importance of all three combined wasn’t even a tenth of the compatibility test happening tomorrow.
Passing the written test, physical fitness test, and practical assessment meant that one could go to university.
But what kind of university they could enter, and whether they could become a Genetic Integrator or a Mechanically Modified Human, all depended on tomorrow’s compatibility test.
Naturally, people with better physical fitness generally had higher compatibility for Genetic Fusion and mechanical modification.
Therefore, students with high compatibility scores were mostly excellent students.
In other words, it wasn’t too realistic for underperforming students to hope for a turnaround with this test.
“With my current physical strength being so exaggerated, I wonder what kind of result I’ll get in tomorrow’s compatibility test…” Lin Zichen thought, full of curiosity.
