Chapter 16: Three-Year Mock Gaokao

Jiang Changkong and Ji Ziling talked for a long time.

The temporary student ID in his hand was of the highest level.

Only super top students could apply for it.

Super top students were those who could single-handedly ace all simulation exams ahead of time.

Such individuals were few even in the entire Martial Arts School.

Currently, there were only twenty.

As for those from before, they had already been assigned jobs.

Other temporary student IDs could not be used to participate in simulation exams.

Super top students rarely applied for temporary student IDs.

Even if they did in the past, they would return them quickly.

It hadn’t been discovered before that one could earn rewards by taking simulation exams.

Or perhaps those top students were just too honest.

Jiang Changkong also learned some information.

After graduating from school, ordinary students were assigned jobs compulsorily.

Wherever the school sent you, you had to go.

Ordinary top students had the qualification to choose their jobs.

Super top students could be picky—they could choose whichever job they wanted.

If they didn’t want to go, they could even start their own businesses.

If Jiang Changkong could break through to the Star Cloud Level, he would undoubtedly be a super top student.

If calculated properly, he might even be more impressive than a super top student.

The three-year Simulation College Entrance Exam was taken over by Ji Ziling.

He only handled the one-year and two-year exams, which satisfied him.

“By the way, what if someone tries to snatch my Star Stones?”

Jiang Changkong whispered, “The kind with weapons. I’m unarmed and might not be able to stop them.”

He didn’t mention that he had beaten up Zhang Tao.

Otherwise, Ji Ziling would become narcissistic again.

“Don’t worry about that. As long as you’re outside the school, anyone who dares to bring out a weapon that has reached a certain grade will be reported to the authorities immediately.”

Ji Ziling said.

“Reported?”

“Yes, carrying weapons in the city requires a Professional Martial Artist Certificate.”

Ji Ziling explained, “To obtain a Professional Martial Artist Certificate, one must reach a certain level of strength and have no criminal record.

Using weapons to attack others is prohibited, regardless of whether one is a professional martial artist or not.”

Jiang Changkong understood.

Without a certificate, anyone who dared to brandish weapons would be arrested and taught a lesson in no time.

Those with certificates could carry weapons but could not use them to attack others. Otherwise, their certificates would be revoked, and they would face penalties.

Ordinary martial artists would store their weapons at home when returning to the city.

Only when leaving the city to hunt Star Demons could they bring their weapons.

If Zhang Tao brought a weapon, Jiang Changkong might not be able to defeat him, but he could at least delay him.

After their conversation, he and Ji Ziling enjoyed two books together before leaving the clinic.

Ji Ziling also contacted several familiar super top students to discuss taking over the three-year college entrance exams.

No one would ever complain about having too many Star Stones. With such a great opportunity now, of course, they had to seize it.

As for the school?

Hearing Ji Ziling say this, he felt reassured.

Jiang Changkong breathed a sigh of relief. Although he couldn’t interfere with the rewards for the three-year Simulation College Entrance Exam,

the one-year and two-year exams were already enough for him.

He contacted Li Qiuchuan and informed him that he could continue.

Li Qiuchuan replied, wanting to complete the Simulation College Entrance Exam today.

Jiang Changkong agreed.

He had also planned to find a way to compensate Ji Ziling.

Unexpectedly, Ji Ziling didn’t mention it and only asked for the three-year Simulation College Entrance Exam.

He would repay this favor once his strength improved.

Repay kindness with kindness, and vengeance with vengeance.

Zhang Tao had already been severely injured and would be bedridden for at least half a month.

Unless he was willing to pay a hefty price for hospital treatment.

For now, there was no need to worry about him attacking with a weapon.

Of course, he still had to be cautious. Even without Zhang Tao, there might be others like Li Tao or Liu Tao.

That evening, Jiang Changkong went to carry players again and also received the 1800 points reward from the previous day.

Outside the Iron Tower tonight was unusually lively.

There were many more people, all at the mid-stage stellar qi level, and some even at the late stage.

Then, several masked individuals appeared, holding golden temporary student IDs.

They were carrying players through the simulated assessment!

Jiang Changkong and Li Qiuchuan watched this scene with envy.

These people only accepted three-year simulation exams, not the one-year or two-year ones.

First, out of respect for Ji Ziling’s reputation.

Second, they looked down on first-tier medium-grade and high-grade stellar stones.

The reward for the three-year simulation college entrance exam was second-order and first-order top-grade stellar stones!

They had more business than they could handle because many failed the three-year simulation college entrance exam.

Jiang Changkong spotted a familiar figure—Ji Ziling.

The super academic ace, personally stepping in to earn money!

The Martial Arts School was probably going crazy!

Neither of them spoke; both were masked. Ji Ziling went straight to the third floor.

Jiang Changkong led his team inside. After sweeping through, he didn’t leave.

Li Qiuchuan arrived with three teammates.

They planned to clear the three-year simulation college entrance exam today.

“If you four join me, you’ll have to drop one person,” Jiang Changkong said.

“The four of us will go together. Tomorrow night, you can bring one more,” Li Qiuchuan whispered. “We’ve already attracted attention. If we don’t clear it first, I’m afraid we won’t get another chance.”

Only a four-person team assessment offered second-order stellar stone rewards.

Otherwise, only solo players could get them.

“I understand. Leave it to me,” Jiang Changkong nodded and led the three to the third floor.

The three-year simulation college entrance exam still required four people to break through.

Four golden figures, at the late-stage stellar qi limit, wielded golden light swords equivalent to first-tier top-grade weapons.

Jiang Changkong felt some pressure, but fortunately, Li Qiuchuan and the others were no weaklings.

Their weapons were only first-tier medium-grade, but they could hold out for a while.

“You handle two; leave the other two to me,” Jiang Changkong said before charging out.

With the experience of beating Zhang Tao last night, he was confident in taking on two.

With each step, a faint Taiji Diagram formed, using supreme softness to deflect force.

Even with first-tier top-grade weapons, their strength still couldn’t match Zhang Tao’s.

He deflected all their attacks, dodged the swords, and landed his fists on the golden figures’ chests.

Bang!

An explosion echoed as the golden energy figures shook violently, their glow fading significantly and becoming much fainter.

The weakened golden figures saw their strength drop drastically, now only at the mid-stage stellar qi level, though their weapon grade remained unchanged.

This simulation college entrance exam mirrored reality—the golden figures could be injured, and their strength would diminish.

Jiang Changkong dared not take the swords head-on with his body, and the golden figures couldn’t withstand his Taiji Fist either.

With one punch severely wounding a golden figure, another attacked with its sword.

Jiang Changkong’s body moved with extreme flexibility, bending backward as he raised a palm to press against the golden figure’s wrist, unleashing Taiji force.

Bang!

This time, his fist landed, erupting with terrifying power. The golden figure’s wrist shattered directly, and the golden light sword fell to the ground.

In two moves, both golden figures were essentially crippled.

Jiang Changkong closed in, engaging in close combat. At the same level, he feared no one.

Boom!

Another punch landed, severely wounding the golden figure now at mid-stage stellar qi, causing it to explode into dissipating golden light.

The other golden figure, though still at late-stage stellar qi, had lost its weapon and couldn’t harm Jiang Changkong.

His punches landed, but they couldn’t break through its defense!

He simply pummeled it into oblivion!

Li Qiuchuan and the other two were locked in a fierce struggle, ganging up on the two golden figures they were handling.

Jiang Changkong finished off his opponent and forcefully joined the fray, landing a punch that severely wounded the Golden Figure.

“What kind of martial arts are you practicing?”

Li Qiuchuan and the other two stared at him in shock, taking the opportunity to retreat.

“You all rest.”

Jiang Changkong didn’t reveal his martial arts, leaving them with just those words to rest. With only two Golden Figures left, he could easily handle them.

He directly and brutally smashed them apart. As long as he wasn’t injured by their weapons, Jiang Changkong completely ignored their attacks.

In less than a moment, the two Golden Figures also dissipated.

Three-Year Simulation College Entrance Exam, passed!

“Incredible, you’re definitely a super genius.”

Li Qiuchuan and the other two gave him a thumbs-up—this was a complete carry.

Even before joining the school, he could carry the Three-Year Simulation College Entrance Exam.

With this level of strength, even the super geniuses of the past couldn’t compare!

“This is the first time I’ve seen someone practice fist and foot techniques to your level.”

Li Qiuchuan said with admiration.

Jiang Changkong shook his head and said nothing more.
