I, Ning Chuan, Don't Ask Much of the College Entrance Exam: Take First Place and Make Big Money

There are only a few minutes left before the academic exam.

Qingshan No. 1 High School.

Inside a classroom, rows of computers were arranged; the room was quiet and tidy.

Unlike previous monthly exams, each seat was equipped with a panoramic camera, controlled by artificial intelligence and relevant staff, to monitor the examinees' every move at all times.

If cheating is discovered, not only will the score be invalidated, but the candidate will also be disqualified from taking the college entrance examination in the future.

Furthermore, they will bear serious legal responsibility.

A minimum sentence of three years!

The death penalty is the maximum penalty!

The Federation does have some dark sides, but the college entrance exam is too far-fetched.

To put it dramatically, this is directly related to the grand plan for the future rise of humanity, and there can be no problems whatsoever!

The forty students sat spaced apart, all focused on adjusting their mindset and taking the exam very seriously.

For many, the results of this college entrance examination will directly determine their future!

Perhaps it can become a dark horse, leaving everyone else in the dust and shining brightly in the future!

They might end up as beasts of burden, living an ordinary life without ever achieving anything remarkable!

Ning Chuan sat by the window, his back straight, his eyes serious, showing that he also valued this exam.

After Awakening the system, he had been working hard for this day, but he was not worried and patiently waited for the exam to begin.

His mental state, having gone through the trials of slaying Heavenly Martial spies, fighting against the Wei Financial Group, and battling ferocious beasts in the Mountain and Sea Genius Training Camp, was already incredibly strong. A single exam wouldn't cause him to be anxious or uncertain.

Moreover, Ning Chuan has confidence in himself, and this confidence comes from his strong abilities!

Ring ring...

Nine o'clock in the morning.

The exam has begun.

Ning Chuan pondered as he answered the questions on each subject's exam paper, his mind quickly immersing himself in the test.

Although he has been busy hunting ferocious beasts lately and hasn't had much time to review, the Ancient Dragon Elephant Scripture, which Minute Subtlety Realm, has provided him with comprehensive training, not just in terms of muscles, bones, skin, and membranes, but also in his brain and nerve cells.

Most of the knowledge I learned before has been unconsciously integrated and mastered.

In this exam, problems that once seemed obscure and difficult to understand can now be solved with careful thought.

Of course, there will still be a few difficult problems that I can't write.

Ning Chuan didn't hesitate and quickly skipped over it.

While it's not uncommon for top scorers in the National College Entrance Examination (NCEE) to achieve perfect scores in academic subjects, they are extremely rare exceptions.

The college entrance exam calculates the total score, but the martial arts exam accounts for the majority of the score!

Ning Chuan calmly and methodically answered the questions on the exam paper.

Time ticked by, and as each candidate did their best to answer the questions, the exam came to an end at 3 p. m.

Ning Chuan got up from his seat, took the phone he had handed in from the proctor, and just as he stepped out of the teaching building, he received a text message: the artificial intelligence had completed the grading, and the scores had been sent to him by the Education Department.

285 points!

This score is quite high, enough to get you admitted to a top university or even a prestigious university's science and technology college.

Looking at all the top scorers in the national college entrance examination over the years, they are all considered high achievers.

Ning Chuan smiled calmly, showing no excitement. He didn't participate in the students' discussion about the scores, put away his phone, and walked away.

The academic exams are just the appetizer.

The next 700 points of the martial arts exam will determine the outcome of the college entrance exam.

According to Donglin's past practice, with his combat strength Fifth-Grade Martial Artist, he was qualified to compete for the top score in the college entrance examination.

But whether it will succeed remains to be seen.

Ning Chuan wasn't absolutely certain.

In some types of martial arts exams, luck plays a significant role; high skill doesn't guarantee first place.

"I hope that this year's martial arts exam at Donglin can be simplified, ideally similar to the monthly exams at Qingshan No. 1 High School in the past—a direct competition!"

Ning Chuan thought to himself.

This way, he can fully utilize his superior physical strength.

The government maintains extremely strict secrecy regarding the martial arts exams.

Not only will the format and location be kept secret until the very last moment.

As Ning Chuan stepped out of the school gate, he glanced around and clearly saw that a main road ahead was already covered with conspicuous fluorescent warning tape.

Many army soldiers in urban camouflage uniforms patrolled back and forth, fully armed, creating an atmosphere of solemnity.

A row of military buses was neatly parked on one side of the road.

At the front of each military bus stood a sign displaying the range of candidate numbers.

These military buses will transport students to the martial arts exam venue.

Unlike academic exams, students can be scattered across different regions.

The martial arts exam takes place on the same stage.

Just like the Donglin Martial Arts Exam two years ago, tens of millions of students traversed the Dragon Spine Mountain Range together, a spectacular and intense event!

"Please remember, all candidates, that any electronic devices must be handed over to the military!"

The weapons you may carry are limited to melee weapons and original patterned weapons!

All firearms are prohibited!

Including but not limited to mechs, fighter jets, strategic bombers, space-based weapons, meteoroid spacecraft...

The vehicle's loudspeaker was broadcasting the regulations for the martial arts exam, followed by a list of various types of firearms, numbering at least one or two hundred.

Ning Chuan did not laugh.

He knew this wasn't a prank by the Education Department.

Each rule represents a corresponding event that has occurred at least once in the past.

In the period immediately following the Federation's decision to hold a college entrance exam, the unclear Rule and the massive investment required from high-ranking government officials led to chaos and unscrupulous behavior, with some even resorting to any means to win. Some members of wealthy families did such things!

Several nuclear bombs have been detonated!

This is severely unfair to ordinary test takers; it's no exaggeration to call it a case of being outclassed.

Fortunately, they were all later banned by the government.

As for original-pattern weapons, their high price makes them unfair to most students.

But there's nothing we can do about it.

Martial arts exams target individual combat strength, and using financial resources to enhance combat strength is logically sound.

Just like cold weapons, there are different levels of quality.

However, the Federation has formulated relevant policies to prevent the misuse of original weapons.

During the college entrance examination, students are allowed to use original weapons, but one thing to note is that such property is not protected by Federation law.

In other words, any candidate can snatch it and take it for themselves.

In this way, a sword can be hung over the heads of candidates from wealthy families, deterring them from using weapons with excessive original runes.

If it gets stolen, it will really hurt!

"I wonder if I'll ever meet a rich second-generation heir who has a spatial storage ring."

Ning Chuan muttered to himself.

As he spoke, he found his military bus, handed over his phone, and sat down in a window seat in the back.

At dusk, dozens of military buses started up and sped along the road.

Where will this martial arts exam be held?

According to the road signs, we are heading towards the northern part of Donglin, but as for the exact location, who knows!

"I'm from Yucai Middle School, and you guys!"

Inside the bus, many students whispered and chatted, introducing themselves or inquiring about each other's scores, and quickly became acquainted.

Ning Chuan remained silent, not uttering a word, and closed his eyes to rest.

He is full of energy, but in this college entrance examination, he aims for the top spot and needs to be in the best condition to face the challenge!

After traveling for seven or eight hours, the military bus entered a military base.

"Wake up, everyone! Get off the bus! Await instructions!"

A soldier shouted.

On the eve of the martial arts exam, none of the candidates who were sound asleep woke up quickly.

Ning Chuan followed the crowd and left the bus.

He looked around and saw thousands of buses parked nearby, carrying nearly a million students.

However, compared to the number of students taking the college entrance examination at Donglin University, it is still much lower.

"It should be a transit point."

Ning Chuan speculated in his mind.

Sure enough, the soldiers then rearranged the students and brought them back to the military bus.

Ning Chuan narrowed his eyes slightly, lost in thought. This move was clearly targeted at students he might know.

"A ring battle wouldn't be like this. This martial arts exam must involve some kind of chaotic battle!" Ning Chuan's mind raced, and he quickly analyzed. "The reorganization is to prevent students who know each other from teaming up."

"That does make it somewhat anticipated!"

Ning Chuan revealed a calm smile.

Before long, someone called out his exam number, and Ning Chuan followed the soldier leading the way onto a new military bus.

"Um?!"

As soon as he got into the car, Ning Chuan couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

He saw two acquaintances on the bus.

Bai Xiuxiu and Xu Shanyi.

However, this was not the occasion for small talk. Ning Chuan simply nodded as a greeting, then found a seat and closed his eyes to wait again.

"Set off!"

Thousands of military buses drove out of the base like a long dragon.

Several more hours passed.

The night receded.

The sun rises from the eastern horizon.

"We've left the city; this seems to be a no-man's land!"

Someone gasped in surprise.

Outside the car window, the grass and trees were no longer neatly arranged, but grew wildly in clusters. Some nearby plants squeezed into the road fences, while others stretched to the horizon, seemingly without end. It was completely different from the urban scenes we were used to seeing every day.

One bus after another continued on its way, and at the end of the road ahead, a small black dot appeared.

Ning Chuan had amazing eyesight; through the car window, he could clearly see a city surrounded by forests and vegetation, sparsely populated, lying quietly on the land.

The buildings within the city were mostly dilapidated and in a state of disrepair.

" Tianshui City!"

Ning Chuan recognized the city where he was located. Thousands of years ago, it was here that the turning point of the Twin Martial Star War occurred.

It was the last city in the High Martial Realm to be attacked, and it ultimately survived, unlike the previous cities that fell.

In other words...

After the Battle of Tianshui City, the High Martial Realm officially sounded the horn of counterattack, began to gain the upper hand, and advanced bravely all the way until they drove out the Heavenly Martial Realm.

After the Federation was established, one of its cities was designated as a memorial city.

However, with years of peaceful development, Tianshui City has long lost its vibrancy and is rarely visited. On weekdays, only a few government personnel are responsible for its management.

The Donglin Government's choice of this year's martial arts exam location was also intended as a wake-up call.

The military buses sped along, forming a long line through the woods, getting closer and closer to Tianshui City.

The other students on the bus gradually recognized the ancient city, causing quite a stir.

"Quiet!"

Bai Xiuxiu stood up, glanced at the students in the carriage, and said, " Tianshui City is the venue for this martial arts exam. You will have to survive in the city for seven days!"

Upon hearing this, many students perked up, stopped being distracted, and began to listen attentively.

Martial arts exams are more than just about survival.

For students at the High Awakening Stage, enduring seven days without food or water is a piece of cake.

As for the specific method...

At this point, Bai Xiuxiu took out a black wristwatch, pressed a few buttons on it, and a light screen was projected out.

Judging from its appearance, it is indeed a 3D map of Tianshui City.

Pay attention to this red circle!

Bai Xiuxiu raised her hand and pointed to a red circle encircling Tianshui City, saying, "This is the martial arts examination venue. It shrinks every day. The area inside the circle is the examination area. If you cannot enter it in time, you will be considered to have failed and will be directly withdrawn from the martial arts examination!"

"Later, each of you will receive a wristwatch."

Xu Shanyi picked up the conversation and explained, "Besides displaying maps, it's also a defensive Primal Rune weapon. When it senses you're in mortal danger, it can emit a light shield to envelop you."

"But remember, once the light shield is activated, you'll be eliminated!"

Xu Shanyi grinned and said, "As for why it was triggered, it's because defeating other examinees earns corresponding points!"

"The more candidates you defeat, the higher their score will be!"

Before the words were even finished!

The car erupted in chaos, as if a pot had been boiled over.

It is obvious that the Rule of this martial arts exam encourage candidates to fight each other, even to the point of risking their lives!

"In addition to defeating other test takers, there is also a score bonus for each additional time the red circle shrinks."

Bai Xiuxiu added.

After saying that, she turned her wristwatch, adjusted the 3D map of Tianshui City, and said, "Do you see the location with the green light?"

"That's important. There are score cards there. The brighter the light, the more points you get. Once you get one, you'll receive the corresponding points!"

Bai Xiuxiu reminded the students on the bus.

Xu Shanyi smiled and said, "Score cards not only add points, but they can also get your personal sub-channels featured in advertising slots, attracting traffic. That's real money!"

Upon hearing this, most students didn't pay much attention; they valued their grades more.

The so-called revenue from live streaming is merely a mirage; only a few top performers can earn a substantial amount.

However, Ning Chuan's eyes flickered slightly.

This is good news for him!

He didn't have many demands regarding the college entrance examination; he only had two.

Take your place as the top scorer!

Make a fortune!
