Chapter 11 – Change
“Fist, palm, foot, steps … Every combat class zombie has aspects that they were good at. These memories overlap, but they are also complementing each other, just like a puzzle, little by little, to fill my deficiencies in practical combat skills.
“So far, most of the memories were of hand combat, and the first to reqch a bottleneck …”
Lu Sheng thought.
The biggest benefit that the dream world brought him was that he could continuously absorb memories and integrate them into himself.
The results that other people spent a lot of time and effort to achieve, Lu Sheng easily got.
This was equivalent to Lu Sheng stepping on the shoulders of countless predecessors and escalating with break-neck speeds.
And after absorbing the memories of many jumpsuit zombies during this period of time, in addition to allowing Lu Sheng’s progress in martial arts cultivation to soar, there was another gain.
It was the news about Base 1359.
From the clues obtained from a many individual memories, Lu Sheng gradually pieced together a real route to base 1359.
“The direction is right, as long as I keep going, sooner or later I will be able to find Base 1359 …”
“And that day, should not be far away. ”
Lu Sheng looked ahead, where it was covered by a large amount of gray fog, and one or two hobbling figures occasionally flashed through the fog.
With a firm gaze, he walked over with big steps.
…
“About the solution for this question …”
In the classroom, Lu Sheng listened attentively to the teacher’s lecture.
Since his cultivation practice had formalized, Lu Sheng found that his mind had also become much more flexible.
According to Lu Sheng’s hypothesis, this change should’ve been due to the large amount of memories he had been absorbing in the dream world, and the cognitive process behind the phenomenon must’ve stimulated his brain into development. Which in turn enhanced his memory, functioning speed, and other mental aspects.
In layman’s terms, that is, he had become smarter.
Putting it into fantastical context, he had gained a bit of enlightenment.
Lu Sheng felt extraordinarily relaxed while studying, after the change.
Previously, he could not understand the key points of the subjects when he looked at them, but now he only needed to read it once to grasp the entire concept. He had directly taken an academic leap and had become a “top student”.
Knowledge of liberal arts wasn’t completely useless to Lu Sheng.
After all, the college entrance examination also tested on liberal arts, but it did not affect the overall score.
“Okay, class is over …”
As the bell rang, the math teacher stopped his lecture and announced the end of class, and reminded in passing, “Next is the practical class, students remember to go to the practical classroom early and assemble …”
After saying that, the math teacher walked out with the textbook and his thermos cup.
Lu Sheng organized his class notes and books, packed up and prepared to leave the classroom.
Combat classes were typically held in the school’s martial arts hall, which was a few minutes away from the teaching building. Additionally, if one wanted to change thier outfits and not be late for the class it was necessary that one left immediately. Which was also why the teacher did not delay the students.
“Eh, Lu Sheng!”
Just after walking out of the classroom, Lu Sheng heard someone shouting at him from behind.
Liu Qiming ran up quickly and subconsciously wanted to put his arm around his shoulder.
But his hand reached halfway, and then inexplicably retracted.
“Wait … Wait for me, let’s go together.”
Liu Qiming also did not know what happened to him.
In the past, he and Lu Sheng often joked around with each other, and this kind of physical contact did not matter to them. But now, he inexplicably felt timid as he got closer to Lu Sheng.
It was as if … there existed an invisible aura around Lu Sheng’s body that was repelling him fiercely.
“You really … you really changed a lot recently.”
Liu Qiming tried to walk beside Lu Sheng, but the tone of his speech unconsciously faltered with caution.
“Is that so?
“After all, with the college entrance examinations approaching, and you already know my family’s situation, If I still continue with my old ways and do not work hard, I’ll end up being a complete burden on my family …”
“Yeah … we both have similar situations back home, I too need to start working hard.”
Liu Qiming deliberately stood a step behind Lu Sheng, following him by his side, he suddenly felt a lot more at ease. Without having to directly face the kind of compelling aura emanating from Lu Sheng’s body, he recovered his temporary lapse in speech.
“But my household is a little better than yours, I’m an only child …” Lu Sheng nodded his head.
Liu Qiming was right in this statement, if there was only him in their family, or if there was only his sister, the pressure on his parents would undoubtedly be much less.
“But your sister is so talented, its guaranteed that she’ll get a full scholarship if she gets into a martial arts university, later. She won’t even have any problem in availing various subsidies too … The locker room is here, I’ll help you open the door …”
Liu Qiming flew past Lu Sheng and opened the locker room door for him.
The two who were supposed to be sworn friends, now one of them seemed to have been reduced to be the other’s follower. While Liu Qiming didn’t realize this at all, as if everything was logical and right.
“Scholarship …”
A thoughtful light passed through Lu Sheng’s eyes. Liu Qiming’s words had given him inspiration.
He had been thinking about how to earn money recently.
On one hand, it was to lighten the burden on his family so that Mom and Dad didn’t have to work so hard.
On the other hand, as his martial arts cultivation continued to improve, he was bound to need a lot of money to support it.
Let’s take the simplest example: food.
Those ordinary meals that Lu Sheng had been eating, failed to keep up the nutrient requirements required for the growth of his Blood-Qi Value.
If he continued at this rate, it would certainly slow down his progress, and he’ll end up being a terrible dung manufacturing machine.
The way he had previously thought up to make money was to register as a Level 1 Martial Artist. This way he could receive a monthly allowance of several thousand yuan from the WMA, which could in turn be used to buy supplements that he’d use to replenish and nourish his Qi and blood.
Now Liu Qiming’s words made him think of another way—scholarship.
Every school would give a portion of material rewards to students who did well in their studies, and Baihe Third High School was no exception.
“I remember that the first-class scholarship of Baihe Third High School was a full 10,000 yuan. If I can get this money …”
Lu Sheng had an idea in his heart.
And to fight for this prize, he was bound to showcase a little strength befitting a fist-class scholarship winner.
