Chapter 59: Best Major of the Best University

Meng Chao and Chu Feixiong walked past Construction High School’s square.

The cold air that blew out of the air conditioner made Construction High School’s banner spread out.

The banners of the other schools had words like live a plain life and work hard, seek knowledge, or something else written on it, while Ninth High School’s read “BOLD, POWERFUL, RESOLUTE”.

There was only one word for Construction High School—INVINCIBLE!

“They sure are awesome…” Meng Chao and his best friend gasped in amazement. “If they have six hundred slots, doesn’t that mean that all the third year students of Construction High School could join the second test?”

“You have to accept those results. First High School, Second High School, and Construction High School are only open to the top three thousand during the senior high school entrance examination. These people are either ridiculously talented, are genii whose genes have already changed, or people from rich and influential families who have seven or more superhumans.

“The teachers in their schools are all at Demon Yan’s level. The food they eat since the first year of high school is the luxurious set that we only started eating recently. They eat stir-fried organs from superbeasts for every meal, and they are also brought to universities for special training once every few days,” a student from a rocket class in Ninth High School said in the manner of a scholar.

“Even if the weakest student in Construction High School was placed in our school, he would be the best. It’s not unreasonable for them to get six hundred slots.”

“They’re that good?” Meng Chao blinked. “They’re even better than you are?”

The student from the rocket class coughed and drew close to Meng Chao to whisper, “You can’t compare us to them. I’ll use this as an example. A few days ago, you beat up Zuo Haoran, right? He’s someone powerful in our school, and his dad is a three-star superhuman. But in Construction High School, any Tom, Dick, and Harry you pull out might have a father who is a four-star or five-star superhuman!

“You know that superhumans are divided into nine stars. Each three stars form a realm. One star to three stars is Earth Realm, four stars to six stars is Heaven Realm, and seven stars to nine stars is Deity Realm. It’s relatively easy to level up within the same realm, but if you want to move from three stars to four stars, it’s trying to reach Heaven Realm from Earth Realm, and the difficulty is as great as climbing the heavens.

“Our parents are at most at the peak of Earth Realm, but their parents are powerful people in Heaven Realm. That’s the difference between us!”

Alright, Meng Chao suddenly felt that he was actually pretty awesome to be able to slaughter his way to become a third-class fighter among these monsters.

“Students, you’re all outstanding people in Tiger Forest Region. You’re also the future hope of Tiger Forest Region!”

The examinees from all the high schools had arrive, and the leader of the education department appeared on the super huge screens around them.

All government officials in the survival committee, sanitation department, administrative departments, defense teams, and all the members in charge of administration in the departments had to have experience fighting in wars or have killed a certain number of monsters.

Hence, it was seldom that anyone saw a fat leader. Most of them were powerful people with intense gazes and awe-inspiring presences.

The leader of the education department did not even use a microphone. He just spoke normally, and he was already so loud that his voice spread through the underground field like a thunderbolt.

“But regardless of how powerful you are, you must understand something. It is not easy to walk down the path of a superhuman. This is not just a road filled with splendor and glory, not a way for you to be promoted and get rich, and not just a glorious road for you to rise in fame quickly.

“It is a path full of death and filled with hardships and trials. You will be given endless responsibilities and tasked to protect those you love. This concerns thousands of your comrades’ lives and deaths and may even decide Dragon City’s prosperity or decline.

“Just now, when you came to this place, I believe all of you got to know just how superhumans were born, how they contributed to society, and how they sacrificed their lives for us. They carry great significance in the continued existence of Dragon City and Earth’s civilization in the Other World.

“Now, I want all of you to calm down and think about this seriously. Do you want to walk down the path of a superhuman, and if so, why do you want to do so? I hope that you will be able to get your answer, or else, you will not be able to pass the mental test.”

The leader’s words were very simple and short. After he finished, the staff and the school teachers gave each examinee a silver-white metallic can filled with medicinal fluid.

It was a special brain cell activation fluid. After they drank it, their brains would develop, and they could receive a lot of external information.

The activation fluid was very sensitive, however. It reacted to most of the forbidden medicine in the market.

Hence, if anyone had taken any forbidden medicine like tranquilizers, mind stabilizers, or something along the lines, they would definitely end up embarrassing themselves in public.

Only an hour was needed for the brain cell activation fluid to spread through their bodies. It was the final buffer before they began their mental tests.

“Everyone, please rest where you are. Of course, you can search for your friends from the other schools so that you can exchange your experiences and try to relieve yourselves of your nerves.”

The leader of the education department smiled and said, “We’ve also prepared some introductions to the best majors from our best universities. Everyone, you can try listening to them seriously.”

A ruckus broke out, and a new image appeared on the screen.

This time, a rather cold and pretty girl appeared.

“Greetings, everyone, I am Ning Xueshi, a student of Dragon City Agricultural University. I am the vice president of the student council for environmental sciences and the resource recovery faculty. You may call me Senior Ning. Next, I will introduce you to the best major of Dragon City Agricultural University, resource sciences.”

“Wha—” Meng Chao could not help murmuring.

The lady of the Ning family was wearing a rather simple dress. She had no makeup, but even so, she looked incredibly beautiful while she made introductions on the stage.

“Resources are the most important thing in the development of a civilization, and it is especially the case for Dragon City. Regardless of our survival or development, we need to excavate resources, use them, and develop them.

“Usually, when people talk about the resource major, their minds are in a box, and they only think about harvesting monsters. In truth, the direction of our work isn’t as simple as being harvesters. We also plant etherealized plants, modulate biochemical beasts, and gather active minerals. Regardless of in which direction you wish to venture, as long as you reach the peak, you will have a boundless future ahead of you.

“When you train to become a powerful martial artist, you cannot escape eating a large amount of monster flesh and drinking a lot of their blood. Many rare materials are needed to refine divine weapons as well.

“The chips of superbrains, the strongest war machines in the army, the rune ink the Supernatural Tower needs to explore runes, and the gene medicine used to revive the dead all require raw materials that we provide. So, we’re definitely the ace of all aces, and we will welcome all of you in our course!”

Ning Xueshi’s words caused a ruckus.

Next, a few other seniors from famous universities went up on the stage and talked about the best majors in their universities. They gave exaggerated tales, and all of them said their majors promised great futures.

“Why did they decide to publicize their majors right now. They’re making all of us restless, and we can’t calm down at all.” Meng Chao was puzzled.

“This is an old tradition of the mental test. Just now, we can be considered to have gone through ideological teachings while going through the Transmigration Museum, but ideology alone won’t be able to attract people to risk their lives. They need to be stimulated by real materials to persist down the superhuman path.”

The students from the rocket classes knew the ropes well. “As for whether we can calm down? That’s our business. We’ll have to face all sorts of temptations on our path to become superhumans. If we can’t control our minds just because we heard a few words, how can we become superhumans? This is also a part of the test. They’re testing our mental stability here.”

Meng Chao looked around. It was as the student had said, the rich children from Construction High School remained indifferent and cool. Their minds were refined like steel.

The students from the city-level key high schools were also able to compose themselves. At most, they were just slightly attracted by the ace majors.

But many of the students from region-level key high schools like Ninth High School and those from normal high schools were surging with emotions. They began to imagine their bright futures after they got into college.

“I want to get into Engineering University’s machinery course. In the future, when Dragon City conquers the Other World, the steel army will definitely be the key to victory. The machinery course can create large war machines and repair roads. Large-scale industrialized machines are the true ace among aces!”

“Engineering University’s machinery course is nothing. If I have to choose, Technology University’s superbrain course is the real powerhouse! I heard that they used the new materials from the Other World to create chips, and they’re all nanochips now.

“When they’re infused into the biochemical brains formed by monster cells, they form the legendary superbrains. Their calculation abilities have already surpassed Earth’s supercomputers by a hundred fold.

“In fact, we can create true AIs! And no matter what, the population of Dragon City is low, and automatic killing machines that have superbrains will be the true main fighting force of the future expeditions!”

“I still want to get into military school. The heroic spirit of Dragon City’s military school can allow us to summon the martyrs who sacrificed their lives for Dragon City over the past half a century. We can infuse our bodies with the martyrs’ heroic spirits and temporarily gain their strength and skills. Hehe, if I could summon ten spirits of powerful soldiers from the special forces, wouldn’t I be invincible?”

As Chu Feixiong listened to it, he became so excited that he nudged Meng Chao with his elbow. “Did you hear that? Come with me to military school and join the heroic spirit course! We’ll have a bright future there. With our strength and moral integrity, we’ll definitely be able to summon at least one hundred heroic spirits!”

“Don’t get too excited. Let’s talk about this after we manage to reach the required scores for the entrance examination. The points required for the heroic spirit course in military school are really high. After all, it’s their ace course.”

Meng Chao fell into deep thought. “Myself, I want to get into Dragon City University’s martial arts course or Agricultural University’s resource recovery course. I think I’ll be able to get into those two.”

“Dream on,” the student from the rocket class said with a smile. “Dragon City University’s martial arts course is the strongest course of the strongest university, so their requirements are ridiculously high. Those who can get into it are all monsters. Only three from Ninth High School have managed to get into it over the past ten years.

“The resource recovery major of Agricultural University is also very amazing. There were two main concerns once Dragon City transmigrated: how to feed millions of people and how to domesticate and hunt monsters. Coincidentally, both were related to Agricultural University.

“So it rose to power and now is known as Monster University. It’s the second strongest university in overall abilities in Dragon City. It has all sorts of monster resources, and even Dragon City University is envious of it.

“And the resource recovery course is the ace of Monster University. The requirements to enter it are horrifically high. Even if you’re Ace Student Chao, it won’t be easy for you to get into that university.”

Chu Feixiong chuckled. “Just now, the senior who spoke about Agricultural University’s resource recovery course was very pretty. It’s only natural that Ace Student Chao has started indulging in fantasies.”

Meng Chao did not know whether he should laugh or cry. The presenter was Ning Xueshi. They ate together often, and after they ate, they dissected monsters and took care of all sorts of monster organs. Whatever poetry he could sprout about her beauty was ruined because of it, and there was no way he could possibly indulge in fantasies about her now.

The student from the rocket class misunderstood his expression. He smiled as if Meng Chao stood on the same line as he did. “Ace Student Chao, you’ve got taste. Senior Sister Ning is rather famous in the harvesting circle, and many ace students in Agricultural University as well as new harvesters go absolutely bonkers over her.”

“Meng Chao, you have a chance. Isn’t your dad a harvester?” Chu Feixiong gave him a suggestive look.

“Forget it. My dad isn’t a superhuman. They’re not in the same circle.” Meng Chao smiled.

“True that. I heard that Senior Sister Ning is very cold and prideful. It’s better if you don’t bother her.”

The student from the rocket class looked around before he whispered, “A few days ago, she splashed red wine on a famous young master during a high-end harvester gathering. I heard his name is Young Master Jun. She did not show him any respect at all.”

Chu Feixiong cried out in surprise. “No way… She looks really pretty, but she’s so feisty?”

“Can’t you see? That Young Master Jun has quite the background, and his family is acquainted with the Ning family. But once they got into a disagreement, Senior Sister Ning splashed red wine on his face. Ace Student Chao, we should save ourselves the embarrassment, you know?” the student from the rocket class said.

Meng Chao was stunned for a long time. He could only say, “You’re pretty well-informed, huh?”

“Of course.” The student from the rocket class smiled. “My dad has some connections in society, so he knows certain things about those in the upper-class society. Trust me, that circle is very complicated. We can’t understand it, and there’s no need for us to understand it either. Anyway, don’t ponder over it. We just need to cultivate hard.”

“Gotcha.” Meng Chao nodded. “I won’t think about it. I’ll just cultivate.”
