"Mingcheng is one of the second batch of cities to be rebuilt after the disaster. Although it ranks low among first-tier cities and is far inferior to big cities such as Magic City and Beidu, it is at least equivalent to the size of seven or eight Jingcheng. ."
The raging wind and sand were gradually becoming thinner. Shen Qian leaned in front of the window and looked at the faint outline of the city in front of him. Ouyang Fei explained with a smile.
Excluding Lucheng, this is the first time I have been to other cities before Shen Shen. Moreover, it is the capital of the first province in the southwest, so I am naturally curious.
Ten kilometers away from Mingcheng, the wind and sand completely disappeared and were isolated by an invisible protective shield. As far as the eye could see, there were endless green fields and large tracts of bright fruit trees.
Armored vehicles stopped one after another on the roadside. As the doors opened, the eager Jingcheng students rushed out of the vehicles and looked at the green on the roadside and let out various exclamations.
Many people couldn't wait to take out their bracelets and take pictures.
Jingcheng also has a vegetable and fruit growing area, but it is only a small area in the north of the city. Most of the food is imported from other areas. Most of the teenagers here have only seen similar scenes in movies.
In addition, it took more than three hours to cross the restricted area without any surprises. We didn't even encounter a monster. At this time, the scenery suddenly changed and everyone was very excited.
Shen Qian is no exception.
He took a few random photos, shared them with his parents first, and then sent them to Ding Yi.
After hesitating for a while, Shen Qian shared it with Huo Ling'er, and then simply sent a few pictures to Eighth Senior Sister and Xiaoxuan.
...Well, who makes everyone a country bumpkin?
However, Shen Qian estimated that the Eighth Senior Sister should be well-informed.
The bracelet vibrated. Shen Qian looked at it and was surprised that the Eighth Senior Sister actually replied in seconds.
"Beautiful."
Just two words, very cold.
Shen Qian was about to put away his bracelet when Ji Ruoshui's message came again.
"I..."
"Not very good at..."
"Hand bracelet..."
"So"
"Slow typing."
Eighth Senior Sister is living too retro, right?
But Shen Qian immediately remembered the eighth senior sister's room. It seemed that there were not many electronic products, not even a lamp.
"I haven't seen such scenery for many years, thank you."
About a minute later, the Eighth Senior Sister sent another message.
Shen Qian looked at this message in a daze, until Song Ben's voice rang in his ears.
"Brother Shen Qian, we are going back to the military camp. I wish you success in the college entrance examination and bring glory to our Jingcheng!"
Shen Qian turned around, looked at the cheerful-faced young man in military uniform in front of him, and asked doubtfully, "Brother Song, aren't you going into the city?"
"We are in the field and cannot enter the city casually without military orders."
Song Ben shook his head and said with a smile: "You have to return to the station now. People from the Provincial Department of Education will send a car to pick you up into the city."
"That's really a pity. I still want to have a good chat with Brother Song." Shen Qian said.
"It's okay, I will come when you return." Song Ben said with a smile, "I will be on vacation then. When I get back to Jingcheng, I will call my brother and we will get drunk again!"
"Okay, it's a deal!"
Shen Qian shook hands with Song Ben, bumped shoulders with each other, and said goodbye.
"All of Chang Youying are here, salute!"
Commander Sun roared violently, like thunder on the ground.
All the non-commissioned officers instantly stood up straight and saluted the students in Jingcheng.
The neat movements shocked the teachers and students present.
"Get on the bus and return to camp!"
Captain Sun roared again, and all the sergeants quickly got on the vehicle. The armored vehicle turned around and soon disappeared in an orderly manner into the wind and sand outside the protective shield.
"There are joys and sorrows in joining the army, but who do you want to join?"
Ouyang Fei's heart was obviously swaying when he saw it, and he couldn't help but sigh, "This is what a man is supposed to do!"
"Oh, you really want to go to the military?" Gu Zifang said with a smile, "Your Ouyang family is a single generation of three generations, can your old man agree?"
"Of course I make the decision on my own life!"
Ouyang Fei stared at the dust kicked up by the armored vehicle as it moved away, clenched his fist and said, "I'm going to decide on this military weapon."
Shen Qian didn't speak at the side, but his emotions were also affected.
Not long after, the engine of the car sounded, and about twenty buses came from the direction of leaving the city, but it was the vehicle from the Department of Education that arrived.
At this time, it was no longer convenient for Shen Qian to hang out with Ouyang Fei and others, so he bravely returned to the team at No. 7 Middle School. As expected, he was caught and interrogated by Wang Yangming and others, and he almost told him the color of his underwear.
However, Shen Qian seemed to have said a lot, but in fact there was no real content.
And Lin Xiaoqian and others didn't expect to ask anything. Even a fool would know that Shen Qian must have had his own experiences, and many things cannot be copied.
This is the scarcity of genius.
They were just unhappy that they had been "cheated" by Shen Qian for so long. As for the "top scorer" that Shen Qian often talked about in the past, they were naturally forgotten by them...
Mainly no one dared to believe it at that time.
After passing through the fields and passing through Mingcheng's 100-meter-high thick city wall, everyone entered the city.
Compared with the beautiful scenery outside the city, the scenery in the city is not amazing. At most, the streets are wider and the floors are higher. If it is the only feature, it is probably that the architectural style of Mingcheng is very tolerant, and all kinds of buildings can be accommodated.
See.
The convoy traveled all the way and finally came to a street full of various hotels and guesthouses.
There are police and military personnel guarding the perimeter of this street. It seems that the Department of Education has directly surrounded it.
But it’s normal to think about it. Students from the eleven cities in the province who are taking the martial arts college entrance examination are all gathered here. A rough estimate is that there are at least tens of thousands of people. Solving the accommodation problem for so many people cannot be solved by one or two hotels.
.
The martial arts college entrance examination is one subject per day and lasts for three days in total.
Thinking about it this way, the five hundred yuan registration fee for the Wushu College Entrance Examination is really not expensive at all. Although the Jingcheng Education Bureau will probably have to share part of the cost, at least it is not a big burden for students.
Students from the six high schools in Jingcheng were all concentrated in seven hotels in the same area. However, when assigning rooms, the sensitive Shen Qian found that the room card he got seemed to be a little different from others.
However, Shen Qian didn't show it on the surface. After everyone took their luggage and went to find their own rooms, Shen Qian Shiran went to the top floor of the only four-star hotel.
There were only ten rooms on the top floor. Shen Qian immediately had a premonition of something. Sure enough, Ouyang Fei, who heard the noise and walked to the door, greeted Shen Qian.
Well, another privilege...
Shen Qian took the room card and opened the door of room 9009. After taking a look, his psychological pressure suddenly disappeared. Fortunately, it was just a double bed room, not a luxury suite.
Putting aside the slight discomfort, a single room is indeed much more convenient, especially for people with secrets.
The most surprising thing is that this single room also has a separate practice room with some simple equipment. No wonder the room doesn't look big at first glance, but there are only ten rooms on this floor.
Although he lived alone, Shen Qian still had to participate in group activities, so after putting away his luggage, Shen Qian hurried back to the first floor and went to the hotel's large restaurant for dinner with his classmates from Class 109.
While eating, Liu Simin, who was accompanying me, came over and announced some things to note during the college entrance examination.
"For tomorrow's physical fitness test, there are twenty test centers across the city. There are maps in the lobby on the first floor of the hotel. Everyone must remember to report to the corresponding test center on time according to the time on their admission ticket. The Department of Education has arranged fixed arrangements at each test center.
Bus route..."
Shen Qian took out his admission ticket and took a look at it. His test center was at the Provincial Gymnasium, and the test time was at two o'clock in the afternoon, which was relatively relaxed.
Regarding the three components of the martial arts college entrance examination, the only accurate information that can be found online is the physical fitness test.
From an admissions perspective, the most important thing is actually the physical fitness test.
After all, willpower and practical combat account for a very small proportion in high school courses.
Taking last year's Beiwu as an example, the minimum admission threshold for physical fitness is an explosive strength of 145Kg and a speed of 100 meters of 10.3s, but the actual combat rating only requires D or above, which is equivalent to a fictitious one.
As for the item of will, it was not mentioned at all.
There have been criticisms on the Internet, saying that "will" and "actual combat" should have been abolished in the martial arts college entrance examination long ago, and only physical fitness should be left.
But the three items of the martial arts test have lasted for so many years, but they have never changed.
Admission is a trivial matter, but Shen Qian came here for the No. 1 pick. "Will" and "practical combat" that others don't pay attention to are equally important to him.
It’s just that the willpower test questions will come out after the physical fitness test tomorrow, so I can’t make any preparations now.
"Holy crap, what's wrong with these people? Why are there lemon essences everywhere!"
Suddenly, Zhou Xu, who was eating at the same table, shouted.
"What's wrong?"
The students in Class 109 looked sideways.
"Look at the local forum in Jingcheng. A lot of people are talking about Shen Qian. The first posts look okay, but there are a lot of weird and shady voices coming from the back!"
Zhou Xu pointed at the bracelet angrily and said.
Shen Qian himself was stunned, but after calculating the time, a lot of time had passed from the morning ceremony to now, and the things that should be fermented should indeed be fermented.
After all, not everyone saw the live broadcast in the morning.
Finally unable to hold back his curiosity, Shen Qian also opened his bracelet and entered Jingcheng's local forum.
The number of posts on the forum is refreshing at a rate of more than a dozen per second. At a glance, seven or eight of the ten titles are related to Shen Qian.
Shen Qian casually clicked on a post titled "Shen Qian is my elementary school classmate" and took a look.
The person who posted the message claimed that he graduated from Jingcheng South No. 2 Primary School, and had sat at the same table with Shen Qian. This probably meant that Shen Qian in primary school was very ordinary, and it was not obvious that he had "such potential" at that time.
This post doesn’t seem to have much of a tendency, it’s just a bit questioning.
Shen Qian scrolled down further and ignored the posts that looked like "Shen Qian is so handsome" and "Does he lack a girlfriend" from fangirls? The following contents were not very friendly.
"Why should Shen Qian compare with Wang Shuo? Exclusive information digs into their past..."
This is a despising of Shen Qian from a factual point of view, which is quite reasonable and well-founded.
"Who is Shen Qian? I strongly suspect that he is the illegitimate son of the city lord. Can any cat or dog represent Jingcheng?"
This is a slightly dirty word, and the meaning of ridicule is very strong.
There are even more outrageous things, such as "Nancheng Yakuza", "Flowering Pretender" and the like, most of which are posted by anonymous users.
From the point of view of the replies, objectively speaking, 10% believe that Shen Qian is serious about it, 30% believe that the city lord will not mess around, 40% are waiting and watching, and the rest are all doubts and insults.
To be honest, Shen Qian still felt uncomfortable.
At this moment, he probably felt a little bit of the troubles of being an "Internet celebrity".
The most indispensable thing in the world is keyboard warriors who can guide the country, but these people are not reasonable people. Will the person who wants to put shit in your face from the beginning admit his own stench?
"What do you mean by 'it's okay for him to have sex with you'? Doesn't it mean that the city lord likes him?" Zhang Liangwei didn't know what post he saw, and he slapped the table in anger.
"Shen Qian, don't take it too seriously. These people are just so boring. At least there are still many people who support you." Lin Xiaoqian comforted Shen Qian.
"Shen Qian, do you want to post a response or ask that Brother Liu..."
Wang Yangming asked hesitantly.
Chai Haotian grasped the situation and did not directly disclose the relationship between Shen Qian and Jingcheng Hou, but Wang Yangming finally thought of something after confirming that Shen Qian had indeed become awesome.
"I'm fine. You can eat. I'll go back first."
Shen Qian smiled, packed up the tableware, and left.
The students in Class 109 looked at Shen Qian's leaving figure and looked at each other with some worry in their eyes.
"It's all your fault. Shen Qian didn't know such a thing existed. By saying this, aren't you trying to mess with his mentality?"
Lin Xiaoqian glared at Zhou Xu, "If it affects his performance in martial arts, you will feel guilty for the rest of your life!"
"I didn't expect that much just now..." Zhou Xu said sarcastically.
"Forget it, I don't blame Zhou Xu. This matter has caused such a big stir, Shen Qian will definitely know about it."
Zhang Liangwei sighed, "Actually, if you think about it carefully, it's not surprising. After all, no one has heard of Shen Qian's name before. He stood up so suddenly. Thinking about it from his perspective, if we were not his classmates, we might not be there." Ideas."
"I think it doesn't matter. Once Shen Qian's results come out after the college entrance examination, all doubts will definitely be eliminated!"
Another girl, Mao Xiaoxiao, said with a smile, "A big shot like the city lord won't do anything without aim. Shen Qian must be really capable. Haven't you noticed that his temperament has changed a lot recently? Not only has he become taller but also handsome." ..."
"Oh, now it seems that Xiao Ding has such good vision that he didn't even give me a chance to make a move!"
Lin Xiaoqian couldn't help but hit Mao Xiaoxiao's head, feeling angry and funny, "What are you thinking? We didn't say that Shen Qian had no real ability, but do you know what the current situation means?"
"What do you mean?"
"When Wang Shuo was still here, people in Jingcheng thought he was going to win the top prize. Now it's Shen Qian. Because they're not familiar with each other, everyone will be more picky. This is human nature." Zhang Liangwei saw it more clearly. , frowned.
"Ah, then... can Shen Qian win the top prize?" Mao Xiaoxiao said with lack of confidence.
"Even if Wang Shuo is here, it's not necessarily the case. It's really difficult to save the number one scholar. It's very, very difficult."
Lin Xiaoqian sighed.
……
Shen Qian had just received a text message from Ouyang Fei, so after leaving the restaurant, he went straight to the rooftop of the four-star hotel.
There is a small arena here, which can accommodate about two to three hundred people. However, when Shen Qian arrived, there were only nine people including Ouyang Fei in the large arena.
There is a cold table next to it, which is filled with various exquisite pastries and piles of soft drinks. It seems that the place has been reserved by Ouyang Fei and his friends.
Chen Peng and another boy were fighting back and forth in the middle of the field.
Shen Qian stopped and looked at it for a while, but there was nothing new. In high school, everyone only learned basic martial arts. At most, it was just a matter of experience and awareness.
...Of course, the existence of BUG levels in the system is not within the scope of statistics.
"Coming?" Ouyang Fei waved to Shen and said with renewed energy, "We have been waiting for you for a long time!"
The others also turned their heads to look, even Chen Peng and the boy stopped.
Shen Qian could see the fire in their eyes.
The reason is that they felt disrespected by the "disdain" they received from the armored vehicle.
Shen Qian looked up at the dusky sky and let out a long breath.
But, why am I not holding back a fire?
It just so happens that this is an excellent opportunity to vent and verify your true strength.
After breaking through to the Beginner Warrior, Shen Qian only fired a few rough shots on the simulator. The feeling of not being able to fully release was simply...
Not happy at all!
And just in time, after excluding the system will that can be called cheating and the chaotic vitality that is obviously not in line with the rank, the strength of Gu Zifang and others has not exceeded their upper limit.
Came just in time.
Too lazy to talk nonsense, Shen Qian walked directly to the center of the venue, took off his long white suit, waved his hand... and took it back again, neatly stacking it aside.
...I almost forgot that this coat costs tens of thousands, but luckily I didn’t throw it away.
After removing the burden as gracefully as possible, Shen Qian turned around and hooked his fingers at Ouyang Fei and others, "Come on."
Gu Zifang raised an eyebrow, "But you haven't said who you want to fight first?"
"Oh, it's my fault that I was a little shy before. I'm sorry to tell you clearly. If I want to fight..."
