Jiang Changkong chatted with Ji Ziling for a long time.

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

Only super top students could apply for one.

A super top student was a powerhouse who could solo every mock exam in advance.

Even in the entire martial arts school, there were only so many of them.

Right now, there were only twenty.

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

The other temporary student IDs could not be used to take the mock exams.

The super top students almost never applied for temporary student IDs.

Even when they had applied for one in the past, they had returned it very quickly.

So no one had discovered that grinding mock exams could earn rewards.

Or rather, those top students were very simple and honest.

Jiang Changkong also obtained some information.

After graduating from school, ordinary students were generally assigned jobs by force.

Wherever the school told you to go, that was where you had to go.

Ordinary top students were qualified to choose their jobs.

Super top students were willful; they could choose whichever job they wanted.

If they did not want to go, they could even start their own business.

If Jiang Changkong could break into Nebula Level, then he would be a proper super top student.

If it was really calculated, he was actually even stronger than a super top student.

Ji Ziling had taken the three years of mock college entrance exams.

He was only taking the one-year and two-year ones, and that already satisfied him.

"Right, what if someone wants to snatch my Star Stones?"

Jiang Changkong said in a low voice, "The kind with a weapon. I'm unarmed, so I'm afraid I won't be able to block them."

He did not say that he had beaten Zhang Tao up.

Otherwise, Ji Ziling would get narcissistic again.

"You can rest assured about that. As long as you're outside the school, if anyone dares to take out a ranked weapon, call the police immediately."

Ji Ziling said.

"Call the police?"

"Yes. Carrying a weapon in the city requires proof of being a professional martial artist."

Ji Ziling explained, "To get proof of being a professional martial artist, your strength has to reach a certain level, and you have to be a martial artist with no criminal record.

And anyone who takes out a weapon to attack, whether they're a professional martial artist or not, isn't allowed."

Jiang Changkong understood.

Without proof, if you dared to wave a weapon around, you would be arrested and taught a lesson in minutes.

With proof, you could carry it around, but you could not use it. Otherwise, your proof would be revoked, and you would be punished as well.

When ordinary martial artists returned to the city, they would store their weapons at home.

Only when they left the city to kill Star Demons could they bring weapons.

If Zhang Tao brought a weapon out and Jiang Changkong could not beat him, he still had the ability to stall for time.

After they finished talking, he appreciated two more books together with Ji Ziling before leaving the clinic.

Ji Ziling also contacted a few super top students she was familiar with and began discussing the matter of taking over the three years of mock college entrance exams.

No one would ever think they had too many Star Stones. Now that there was such a good opportunity, of course they had to seize it.

As for the school?

After hearing Ji Ziling say that, he was relieved.

Jiang Changkong let out a breath. Although he could not get involved in the rewards for the three years of mock college entrance exams, the one-year and two-year ones were already enough for him to feast on.

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

Li Qiuchuan replied, saying he wanted to get the mock college entrance exam done today.

Jiang Changkong agreed.

He was still planning to find a way to compensate Ji Ziling.

Unexpectedly, Ji Ziling didn't bring up the matter. She only asked for the three-year mock college entrance exam.

Once his strength improved, he would repay this favor.

Repay kindness with kindness, and vengeance with vengeance.

Zhang Tao had already been beaten into serious injury. At the very least, he wouldn't be getting out of bed for half a month.

Unless, of course, the guy was willing to pay a huge price to go to the hospital for treatment.

For the time being, he didn't have to worry about Zhang Tao grabbing a weapon and hacking at him.

Of course, he still had to be careful. Without Zhang Tao, there might be a Li Tao, a Liu Tao, or someone of that sort.

By evening, Jiang Changkong went to carry people again, and also received yesterday's 1,800-point reward.

Outside the iron tower tonight, it was especially lively.

Quite a few more people had arrived, all of them at the mid Star Qi Stage, and even some at the late stage.

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

They were carrying people through the mock assessment!

Jiang Changkong and Li Qiuchuan watched the scene, their eyes full of envy.

These people only wanted the three-year mock assessment, not the one-year or two-year ones.

First, it was because of Ji Ziling's reputation.

Second, they looked down on first-rank mid-grade and high-grade Star Stones.

The reward for the three-year mock college entrance exam was second-rank and top-tier first-rank Star Stones!

They couldn't even finish all their own business, because there were many people who hadn't passed the three-year mock college entrance exam.

Jiang Changkong saw a familiar figure—Ji Ziling.

The super top student had personally entered the field to rake in money!

The martial arts school would probably go crazy!

The two of them didn't speak. Both had their faces covered, and Ji Ziling went straight to the third floor.

Jiang Changkong led his people inside, swept through the place, and did not leave.

Li Qiuchuan came over with three teammates.

They planned to pass the three-year mock college entrance exam today.

"There are four of you. If you add me in, one of you will have to sit out," Jiang Changkong said.

"The four of us will go together. Tomorrow night, you can bring one more," Li Qiuchuan said in a low voice. "This has already started drawing attention. If we don't pass first, I'm afraid there won't be another chance."

Only a four-person team assessment rewarded second-rank Star Stones.

Otherwise, only solo clears had them.

"I understand. Leave it to me."

Jiang Changkong nodded and led the three of them up to the third level.

The three-year mock college entrance exam was still a four-person challenge.

Four golden figures stood there, at the limit of the Late Star Qi Stage. The golden light swords in their hands were equivalent to top-tier first-rank weapons.

Jiang Changkong still felt some pressure, but fortunately, Li Qiuchuan and the others weren't weak either.

The weapons in their hands were only first-rank mid-grade, but they would have no problem stalling for a while.

"You handle two. Leave the other two to me."

After Jiang Changkong finished speaking, he charged straight out.

With last night's experience beating up Zhang Tao, he was full of confidence against two of them.

One step, one Taiji. A faint Taiji diagram appeared, using ultimate softness to dissolve force.

Even with the support of top-tier first-rank weapons, their strength was still inferior to Zhang Tao's.

He neutralized it all, avoided the longswords, and drove his fist into the chest of a golden figure.

Bang!

With an explosive sound, the golden energy figure shook violently. Most of its golden light dispersed, and it became much fainter.

The faded golden figure's strength dropped sharply, leaving it with only mid Star Qi Stage power, though its weapon grade did not change.

This mock college entrance exam was just like fighting real people. The golden figures could be injured too, and then their strength would weaken.

Jiang Changkong didn't dare use his body to take a longsword head-on, and the golden figures likewise shouldn't dream of using their bodies to withstand his Taiji Fist.

One punch heavily injured it, and the sword light of the other golden figure came killing in.

Jiang Changkong's body became extremely supple. He bent backward, raised his palm to press down on the golden figure's wrist, and unleashed Taiji power.

Bang.

This time, when his fist came down, terrifying power erupted, and the golden man's wrist exploded outright. The golden light sword fell to the ground.

Two moves, two golden men—both were basically crippled.

Jiang Changkong threw himself forward. In close combat, he feared no one at the same level.

Boom.

Another punch came crashing down, heavily injuring the golden man who was only at the Middle Star Qi Stage. It burst apart, turning into golden light and scattering away.

As for the other golden man, although it still had the strength of the Late Star Qi Stage, its weapon was already gone. It could not hurt Jiang Changkong.

His fist fell.

Its defense did not break!

He smashed it apart outright!

The two golden men Li Qiuchuan and the others were surrounding were locked in a fierce, evenly matched battle with them.

After Jiang Changkong finished off his own opponents, he forcefully joined in. One punch fell, and a golden man was heavily injured.

"What martial art are you practicing?"

Li Qiuchuan and the other two looked at him in shock, taking the chance to retreat.

"You guys rest."

Jiang Changkong did not reveal his martial art. He threw out that one sentence and let them rest. With only two golden men left, he could beat them down with ease.

He smashed them apart with sheer brute force. As long as he was not wounded by their weapons, Jiang Changkong completely ignored their attacks.

In less than a moment, the two golden men also scattered away.

The three-year mock college entrance exam—passed!

"Awesome. You're definitely a super top student."

Li Qiuchuan and the other two gave him a thumbs-up. This was completely carrying them.

He had not even joined the school yet, but he could already carry them through the three-year mock college entrance exam.

With this strength, even the former super top students could not compare!

"This is the first time I've realized fist-and-kick kung fu could be trained to your level."

Li Qiuchuan said it with admiration.

Jiang Changkong shook his head and did not say much.
