The Dan River is a tributary of the Yonghuai River. Normally, its water volume isn't large.

However, during the Yonghuai River's flood season, the Dan River also swells.

During planting season, people rely on the Dan River for irrigation, but during the flood season, they fear its waters.

Residents living by the river move to higher ground or other locations before the flood season begins, to avoid being submerged by the rising waters.

After leaving Anyuan Town, Shi Yi spent about half a day reaching the Dan River.

The final exams are tomorrow, so he planned to take care of his household registration first.

Due to the flood season, there are many places to handle household registration matters along the Dan River. Because the Dan River is quite wide, the people living nearby are scattered, and it's not a single jurisdiction that can manage them all.

When some people encounter floods, they hide in the mountains or other places. After the flood subsides, if their original homes are gone, they will go to a neighboring village to re-register their household status.

Most people use travel permits to re-register.

Shi Yi chose Jiantou Village because, as far as he knew, re-registering in a village like this was simpler.

After Shi Yi arrived at Jiantou Village and identified himself and his purpose, he completed the household registration process with the help of the Village Chief not long after. He also received the documents for transferring his household registration.

This process cost Shi Yi one tael of silver, which was quite expensive. However, the matter was handled the same day. Otherwise, the normal process would take two to three days, and if they deliberately delayed it, it would take even longer.

This was also why Lu Feng specifically told Shi Yi to contact him if he needed anything when Shi Yi left the Anyang Martial Arts School.

However, Shi Yi knew that money makes the world go 'round, and for the sake of efficiency, spending a little money wasn't a big deal for him.

After resolving the household registration and transfer matters, Shi Yi entered the mountains, found a hidden spot with high terrain, set up his Anchor Points, and then left!

Earth.

"The matter was resolved more smoothly than I anticipated, but that's good. I can focus on the exams for the next two days."

Shi Yi's body had changed significantly in the past few days, but he wasn't worried about it.

After all, at his age, he was in a growth spurt, and his body changed drastically every so often.

His body becoming more robust wasn't a problem.

This was the benefit of living alone; no one was constantly watching his changes.

"After my Martial Path cultivation broke through to the Blood Essence Realm, the effectiveness of the Four Levels Body Solidifying Stance, Jiazi Tianchen, and Ruowang Suitian in increasing Blood Essence has significantly decreased."

"According to what I gathered from Zhao Cheng, cultivating in the Blood Essence Realm involves increasing Blood Essence and strengthening the body, laying the foundation for tempering the skin and muscles later on."

"The Blood Essence chapter of the Lesser Heavenly Cycle Strength Training Fist still has three moves. Combining all of them is the complete Blood Essence chapter, which can cultivate one to the limit of the Blood Essence Realm."

Shi Yi learned a lot about cultivation from Zhao Cheng, especially regarding the Lesser Heavenly Cycle Strength Training Fist. Zhao Cheng basically told him everything.

As for the subsequent moves, Zhao Cheng told him not to rush and that he would teach them to him after he broke through to the Blood Essence Realm.

Shi Yi subtly tried to ask to see the moves in advance, but Zhao Cheng refused, saying it wouldn't benefit him to encounter them early.

He insisted that forcing himself to practice would negatively impact his cultivation, and thus refused!

After hearing this, Shi Yi didn't try again.

Being too obvious with his intentions wasn't a good thing.

The Four Levels Body Solidifying Stance, Jiazi Tianchen, and Ruowang Suitian also had the effect of increasing Blood Essence and strengthening the body, but without the cooperation of the latter three moves, their effect was less potent.

"I wonder if the 'Cultivation Techniques' section on the Double Pupils panel still hasn't appeared because the Lesser Heavenly Cycle Strength Training Fist is incomplete, or is it for another reason?"

Shi Yi didn't have an answer to this question for the time being.

Although he still had the cultivation techniques of the Five Tigers Gang, he couldn't fully understand them yet, so he hadn't chosen to practice them.

Practicing with only a partial understanding could lead to problems.

Practicing the wrong cultivation techniques could cause serious issues, and he wasn't confident that he could practice them incorrectly and still benefit.

He was just starting his Martial Path cultivation, and taking things step by step was the most suitable approach.

Anlan First High School.

This was Shi Yi's school and a well-known key high school in Lantian City.

Shi Yi had been admitted with the top score.

When Shi Yi's exam results were released, many high schools in the city vied for him.

Even knowing that Shi Yi had White Eye Disease couldn't dampen their enthusiasm.

Shi Yi ultimately chose Anlan First High School, not because of its fame, but because it was close to his residence and agreed to his request to not attend classes regularly.

Of course, the school had its conditions: Shi Yi needed to attend the final exams, and his grades couldn't fall outside the top twenty in his grade.

Shi Yi agreed.

For the past two years of high school, he had only attended the final exams.

Today was no exception.

Shi Yi woke up early, changed into his school uniform, put on his student ID, wore sunglasses, carried his backpack, and rode his bicycle to Anlan First High School.

He had become accustomed to wearing special contact lenses, and from others' perspectives, there was essentially no way to tell there was anything wrong with his eyes.

However, Shi Yi's attire for school remained the same as before; he didn't plan to change anything.

Although wearing sunglasses might attract some odd glances, he had long grown accustomed to them.

Shi Yi knew the power of his Double Pupils. He no longer saw them as an illness or a burden, but rather as his honor and the key to his extraordinary path.

His mindset had changed significantly from before.

The reason he continued to wear sunglasses now was simply to avoid some trouble.

Otherwise, if they knew his situation, both the school and his family might insist that Shi Yi attend school like any other student, which was not something Shi Yi wanted to see.

Just like before, he would study, take exams, and then return to his previous life.

Shi Yi had no intention of making any major changes to his life on Earth for the time being.

For the upcoming year, he planned to focus primarily on the Central Great World.

The door to the extraordinary path had opened for him, and naturally, he intended to step through it and experience more.

Anlan First High School also had students who commuted, so Shi Yi riding his bicycle into the school was normal; only the sunglasses looked a bit strange.

The security guard at the school entrance merely glanced at him curiously and did not stop him.

The school uniform Shi Yi wore and the student ID hanging around his neck were enough to prove he was a student at Anlan First High School.

Class 311, Shi Yi's class, did not have exams immediately upon arrival in the morning but first had morning self-study. Only after morning self-study concluded would they proceed to their respective exam rooms.

The desks in the classroom were all cleaned very thoroughly, as their class was also one of the exam venues.

Shi Yi went to the desk at the very back, by the wall, and sat down.

This was his spot, where cleaning tools like brooms were kept.

After every seating arrangement change in the class, the homeroom teacher would send a photo of the new seating chart to the group chat so parents could see it.

Therefore, Shi Yi knew his position very clearly.

He would only use this seat for morning and afternoon self-study for these two days. As for evening self-study, he did not need to attend; he could go home after finishing his exams!
