Chapter 20 Mock Joint Examination
Chapter 20 Mock Joint Examination
A female host, dressed in a light blue suit and exuding elegance, is holding a script and speaking in a clear voice.
As of 4 PM on the 10th, there have been 53 invasions by alien races along the third-level rift in the East China Sea.
To date, the alien invasion has resulted in 23211 deaths and over 125200 injuries.
[Among them, the First Army suffered 12150 casualties, the Second Army suffered 9721 casualties. The Magic Martial Arts University suffered 584 casualties, the Jiangnan Martial Arts University suffered 351 casualties, the Hunan Martial Arts University suffered 215 casualties…]
As the broadcast continued, the host's voice visibly choked up.
Behind these strings of numbers are countless lives lost.
The three people watching on television were deeply shaken.
"Sigh." Mother Zhang Lan sighed, her eyes involuntarily reddening.
Jiang Yue stared intently at the television screen, her fair face full of seriousness.
Jiang Chen felt a little depressed after hearing his mother's sigh.
He thought of his father, who had also died in the battle against the alien race.
From the moment alien races appeared on Earth, countless people have sacrificed themselves for them.
Jiang Chen unconsciously clenched his right hand, his eyes fixed on the images in the news.
The waves, tens of meters high, rose high, revealing ferocious-looking alien creatures baring their fangs and brandishing their claws.
The warriors, one after another, gripped their weapons and charged towards the enemy without hesitation.
Roars and sounds of battle rose and fell.
Blood splattered, corpses floated, blood stained the sea, and young, bloodless faces appeared on the screen.
Jiang Chen's heart skipped a beat.
These are all students from the Martial Arts University. They should have been pursuing their dreams on campus, but instead, they resolutely went to the battlefield to protect their country.
And he will most likely go to the battlefield to fight to the death against the alien race in the future.
According to the Human Alliance's regulations, after graduating from high school, if the country is in trouble, all martial artists must be ready to be dispatched by the country at any time to go to the front line to defend against the enemy.
If I can't get stronger quickly.
When they enter university, they may be conscripted by the state.
He would most likely become one of the students who died in battle due to his lack of strength.
What will happen to my mother then?
What should I do about my own sister?
At this moment, Jiang Chen felt an unprecedented sense of urgency.
He wants to become stronger, even stronger.
He must become strong enough to survive the war, even strong enough to stop the invasion of foreign races and protect his beloved family and this land.
Because of this news, the meal became somewhat subdued.
None of the three spoke again.
After dinner, Jiang Chen returned to his bedroom to prepare for practicing the basic visualization techniques.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, he calmed himself down and began to meditate.
Your Spirit level has increased from 1.07 to 1.071.
......
Your Spirit level has increased from 1.129 to 1.13.
After repeating it a full sixty times.
Jiang Chen's mental level has increased once again.
He glanced at the time; his cultivation speed this time was clearly faster than last night.
At this rate, it won't be long before he's able to visualize it 100 times a day.
After a quick wash, a fulfilling day came to an end.
the next day.
Jiang Chen ran to the school gate, and a notification appeared on the panel.
Your Tier 1 Agility has been increased from 3% to 4.5%.
My first-tier agility has reached 4.5%!
This improvement is much faster than in other areas.
In the empty classroom, Jiang Chen continued practicing his basic cultivation techniques.
Your physical level has increased from 1.2 to 1.21.
After practicing ten times, a text prompt appears on the panel.
"The basic cultivation method is improving too slowly," Jiang Chen muttered to himself.
Once the body reaches a certain level, the cultivation method remains basic, so the speed is naturally slow.
Your physical level has increased from 1.319 to 1.32.
After practicing the cultivation method one hundred and twenty times, Jiang Chen let out a long breath.
He glanced at the time; there was still half an hour before class.
It seems my cultivation speed has increased again.
Taking this opportunity, he looked at his personal data.
[Body Level: 1.32 (Tier 1)]
[Spiritual Level: 1.13 (Tier 1)]
[Cultivation Techniques: Basic Cultivation Method, Basic Visualization Method, Thunderous Blade Technique (0.08%)]
[Skill Level: Tier 1 Swordsmanship (0.98%) Tier 1 Movement Technique (4.5%)]
[Talent: Diligence can compensate for lack of talent]
Compared to yesterday, Jiang Chen's data in all aspects has improved significantly.
This kind of visible improvement is so satisfying.
After resting for a while, Jiang Chen left the martial arts classroom.
This time, he happened to run into a beautiful woman with a high ponytail.
Both sides nodded to each other again, and then walked out of the martial arts building together.
When Jiang Chen arrived at the classroom door, he heard Qin Shou shouting at the top of his lungs, "So what if my body has reached the next level? My brother Chen can do it too!"
"Cough cough."
Seeing that the fat man was showing off again, Jiang Chen coughed a few times.
When Qin Shou saw that it was Jiang Chen, he immediately shut up and approached with a smile in his eyes.
"Brother Chen, did you know? I heard that Li Xue, who is ranked first in the whole school, has successfully advanced to the next level in physical fitness."
"But don't worry, I believe you can do it too."
He said with a confident expression.
"Heh, he's qualified to get into a top-tier martial arts university now," class monitor Wang Lang said sarcastically. "He could rank in the top 500 in the entire Nanjing!"
Li Xue was the first student in the entire school to achieve two advanced levels.
This means she can get into a top-tier martial arts university.
So the school spread the good news early in the morning.
Jiang Chen remained calm and said nothing.
I just couldn't stop complaining inside.
"No. 3 Middle School is still not good enough. The strongest school in the entire Jinling City is only ranked in the top 500."
"It seems my goal should be to target the top high schools in the province, the geniuses of No. 1 High School."
"I wonder where I rank among this group."
Seeing Jiang Chen calmly sit back down in his seat, Qin Shou assumed he had been hurt.
He quickly reassured him, "Brother Chen, you don't need to worry."
"With the college entrance examination approaching, many people will definitely enter a period of explosive growth, which is normal."
Anyone who is 18 years of age or older can use medication to improve their physical fitness.
With the college entrance examination approaching, those who have been quietly studying hard, especially the wealthy from good families, will certainly not miss this opportunity.
In the short term, high school seniors will likely experience a surge in their abilities.
It's estimated that the top ten will all need a major overhaul.
"Okay, let's get ready for class."
Jiang Chen naturally understood.
He also planned to buy some tonics.
Otherwise, relying solely on one's own efforts to cultivate is still too slow.
During class, the news of the province-wide mock joint exam came down, scheduled for April 4.21st, which is ten days from now.
At that time, the top ten students in the entire school will receive scholarships, with the highest being 100,000 yuan.
Of those who made it into the top 100 in Jinling City, 500,000 were from Jinling City.
If I can get into the top 100 in Jiangnan Province, I'll receive a scholarship of two million!
Jiang Chen was thrilled upon hearing the news.
Currently, although he has 110,000 in his account, this amount is far from enough for a martial artist.
In addition, our family's financial situation is not good, and when my younger sister goes to high school, we will definitely need a lot of money.
We can't rely on my mother alone to earn money.
If he can get into the top 100 in the city in this joint exam, that's 500,000!
