Starting with Growing Mushrooms

Chapter 95: Eliminating Disaster Returning to School (Part 3)


Liu Jun nodded, spending a lot of time secluded in laziness, time passed quite quickly.

The college entrance exam was just around the corner.

Speaking of which, the class teacher, Si Anhe, had arranged a job for him as a middle school teacher, requiring him to interview at the Thirteenth Key Middle School.

This was a somewhat bothersome matter.

"I heard that this time, there's a new addition to the college entrance exam: Soul Magic!" Li Feng looked excited with gossip.

"Will it directly affect the scores?" Liu Jun asked.

"It will." Li Feng said, "There's extra credit for the college entrance exam, a full fifty points, which is quite a lot."

Liu Jun thought about it: "I guess it's the one rumored on the internet, that [Magic Compatibility], whoever is more compatible with Soul Magic, is more valuable?"

"That's how it is, every year the college entrance exam policies change, and the standards for talents change as well." Zou Anmeng said, "It's becoming a bit ridiculous now."

They discussed various exam topics at the dinner table and afterwards headed to the school.

Even though times are changing, modern humans are quite adaptable.

Because technology is exploding, ever-evolving, new techniques emerge every decade or so.

Liu Jun got on the tram.

After all, even though he dreamed of being a god in mythology, real-life still goes on.

...

Arrived at the school.

The classroom was already nearly full, everyone chatting away, gossiping about various things.

Looking at the classroom that accompanied his over a decade long student life, Liu Jun suddenly felt like he'd been through eons.

He kind of understood why Li Chengshan acted so crazy.

Probably read too many books and got absorbed in the domineering CEO role, gradually forgetting he's just a student in reality.

Now he was almost the same.

Everyone was saying:

"Brothers, we can't cultivate the physical body system, but we can cultivate Soul Magic, how are you all feeling?"

"Anyway, I feel pretty good, I'm a great mage."

"Did you guys hear about it? This time for the health checkup, I've heard they came up with [Magic Detection] crystal balls to test aptitude."

"Huh?"

"Fighting Power level three?"

"Is that true."

"Ahhh! Why are they only testing one magic aptitude, I might be aligned with other magic, you know? I might be a godchild of another magic, born 100% aligned!"

"Crazy, why don't you just say you're born with a Saint Body?"

Liu Jun listened to the gossip around him, feeling like a classic storyline was about to unfold.

School belle, engagement cancellation, aptitude test.

People exclaimed, shouting: school belle has S-level aptitude...

Xu Changsheng was once again ridiculed for not being worthy of the school belle, then Xu Changsheng takes a step forward, with astonishing aptitude, shocking everyone there!

Just as Liu Jun was pondering, they switched topics again.

It was nothing but discussions about angel books, Xiangtuo Myth, and various mythical books, all enthusiastically talking, all fans.

Their conversation sounded peculiar to Liu Jun: if I were to shout here, I bet these creatures would want to rush over and say, destroy human tyranny, the world belongs to the Butterfly Race?

Every scholar has a natural rebellious streak!

But listening to them boast about the Butterfly Race, Liu Jun felt a bit pleased.

Go ahead, praise more!

There's a hidden pleasure in being anonymous.

Even though as a Longevity Divine Spirit, I'm only at a small fourth stage early level, probably can't even beat the local Hot Carp.

However, they then switched the topic again, and the atmosphere suddenly became somber.

A girl said: "We're eighteen, about to graduate, should consider marriage, does everyone have a partner?"

Both boys and girls remained silent.

Indeed, they were expected to start finding partners to get married upon graduation.

After all, they only live until shortly after their thirties.

Getting married at eighteen, by thirty, the eleven or twelve-year-old children are just entering middle school, while they die, the next generation continues to strive.

A pair of lovers explained to everyone's gaze: "We've already planned to marry after graduation, we three are two men and one woman, they are two women and one man, conveniently pair up three couples, we went on matchmaking last month and settled it."

Nowadays, there are many three-person groups, marrying another three-person group.

Not marrying within the three-person group, digesting internally.

They paired their three-person group with another, forming closer ties, concentrating wealth.

Passed down generation after generation.

Ancestral generation, four groups produce two groups.

Parental generation, two groups produce one group.

This generation, the last group concentrates on inheriting all parental wealth.

Resource enrichment, able to eventually emerge successfully.

This model is very reasonable and advanced.

A girl asked: "So are you buying Cyan Lamp Lottery tickets, or having your own children?"

The couple felt awkward.

Another girl confidently said:

"My boyfriend is in the neighboring class, although he doesn't like it, I still want to buy lottery tickets, so the child has better prospects, it would be a Saint's child, following his surname, that'd be a huge blessing!"

Someone echoed: "Exactly, don't you know your limits, can't risk having a brain-dead one."

This era fosters intelligence love.

Even seeing their other half, lovers feel no desire.

Because they're all drenched in acid rain, suffer from various chronic diseases, have rough and unattractive skin.

Walking on roads is quite safe.

According to statistics, Rehe City is the safest city for women to walk at night, and also the city with the ugliest men and women.

Even their school belle Bai Youxuan, having decent beauty, now is covered in metal spots, due to diligent cultivation, is actually one of the ugliest in class.

But still the school belle.

Her beauty is intellectual spiritual beauty.

Once she breaks through, transforms, and recovers from injuries, she'll truly be a big beauty.

Therefore, the beauty of this era is from inside to outside, consistent inside and out.

Poor people are surely ugly, rich people are surely beautiful.

Suddenly, someone asked Zou Anmeng beside them, "What about you, are you planning to buy lottery tickets, or find a boyfriend directly?"

Zou Anmeng hesitated a moment, then quietly said, "I haven't decided yet."

"You'll need to pay a single tax for that, it's quite a sum, you better think carefully." Her best friend reminded her, "I know a two-girl one-boy team, conveniently pair with your three-person group, they have good character too..."

Zou Anmeng was considered one of the better looking among classmates.

Though eroded by acid rain, already a "yellow-faced woman."

Yet her figure is curvy, loved by many for the hourglass shape, indistinguishable with a pillow covering when the lights are off, making many male classmates inquire through her best friend.

"Li Feng, what about you?"

"Do you have a partner?"

"You've heard of Zhang Xiaoxin from next door, the one always giving you water."

Nearby Li Feng, though ugly, was asked questions left and right, but as he's in the school basketball team, he's physically strong, could earn more moving bricks in the future.

Li Feng slapped the table and shouted:

"What's the rush? There's the magic aptitude test not even done, who knows if my magic talent is powerful enough to defy fate? Stop worrying about useless things!"

Others looked hopeful as he spoke.

The Angel King gave them another chance to change fate!

"It's a massive forced marriage event."

"Can't find me." Liu Jun whispered, using Vanish to slip into a corner, watching those "aunties and uncles" push for marriage.
