"Yang Ge, Hua Jie… we'll head back first then."
After the sparring session, Luo Xia and Luo Feng stayed at the martial arts hall for a while longer. They greeted the others in the training hall and headed home when it was almost nine o'clock in the evening.
In the following month.
Luo Feng poured almost all his energy into his studies.
Luo Xia didn't feel as much pressure about the National College Entrance Examination, and he still went to the martial arts hall to train every day.
He felt that his strength had subtly improved again.
Days passed by.
Very soon, the National College Entrance Examination was upon them.
June 7th, 2056.
On this day, the National College Entrance Examination officially began.
The current National College Entrance Examination still adhered to the same dates as before The Great Nirvana, but the content of the exams had changed significantly.
The first day focused on science, primarily a comprehensive test covering physics, chemistry, and biology.
The second day tested humanities, a comprehensive exam covering history, politics, geography, and Chinese.
The third day was dedicated to mathematics.
English, while still important in this era of global cooperation, was no longer included in the National College Entrance Examination due to the widespread use of translation devices.
Luo Xia's family was at the entrance of First High School in Yian District.
Because First High School was designated as an examination center, Luo Hua, who was still in his second year of high school, had a six-day vacation. Today, he came with his parents to see Luo Feng and Luo Xia off to take the National College Entrance Examination.
"Xiao Feng, Xiao Xia, don't be nervous. Relax during the exam. Even if we can't get into First Military Academy, Second Military Academy will do."
Luo Hongguo looked at Luo Feng and Luo Xia and said with a smile.
"Yes…" Luo Feng nodded with a smile.
Luo Xia didn't care at all.
He didn't plan to go to college anyway. He was just here to take the National College Entrance Examination today to experience the atmosphere of this future exam.
It didn't matter whether he did well or not.
Besides, with his current comprehension, he didn't think those National College Entrance Examination questions would be able to stump him.
"Beep—beep—"
At that moment, a brand-new, all-black Mercedes, exuding an air of nobility, slowly drove up, escorted by a fleet of police motorcycles. It eventually stopped in front of the gates of First High School.
The surrounding examinees and their parents quickly cleared a path for the police motorcycles and the Mercedes, their eyes fixed on the car.
Three people got out of the Mercedes, chatting as they walked towards the school entrance.
Luo Xia perked up his ears and heard the surrounding people's discussions, figuring out the identities of the three people:
"The bald one on the left is Director Zhang from our Yian District Police Department."
"The one on the right should be Director Liu from the Education Bureau, right?"
"The one in the middle is definitely the Warrior in charge of overall security for the exam," Luo Xia said.
Luo Xia carefully sensed the aura of that Warrior and found that the other person's strength was at least that of an Advanced Warrior! Because the war between humanity and the monsters hadn't ended, and Warriors were constantly on the front lines defending against the monsters, Warriors held a very special status in this era.
Many of the examinees and parents present looked at that Warrior with respectful gazes.
"Creak, creak, creak—"
At this moment, the school gates finally opened. The crowd surged, and someone shouted, "Enter the exam hall!"
His father, Luo Hongguo, quickly said to Luo Feng and Luo Xia, "Xiao Feng, Xiao Xia, hurry and go in."
Their mother, Gong Xinlan, also said, "Sons, go take the exam quickly. Mom will go back and cook something delicious for you, and let your dad and Xiao Hua wait for you here!"
Luo Hua looked at Luo Feng and Luo Xia and then said, "Big brother, third brother, you guys go for it!"
"Okay."
Luo Feng and Luo Xia nodded simultaneously, exchanging a glance before walking into the campus together.
"Big brother, your exam room is next door?"
"Yeah."
"Good luck."
"You too."
Arriving at the examination hall, Luo Xia found that his elder brother Luo Feng's exam room was right next to his. After encouraging each other, he entered his own exam room. He sat down at his assigned seat and placed his admission ticket and ID card on the upper right corner of the desk for the invigilators to check.
Then, Luo Xia waited idly for the examiner to distribute the test papers.
Besides Luo Xia, a second-year student taking the exam a year early, everyone else in the classroom was a third-year student from this year's graduating class, and Luo Xia didn't know any of them.
Amidst the rather tense atmosphere, the examiner distributed the test papers.
Luo Xia glanced at the test paper. The questions weren't difficult at all. After just a glance, the answers and the solution process all appeared in his mind.
Luo Xia picked up his pen and started writing. In less than half an hour, he had finished the entire paper.
Luo Xia glanced at the examiner above, thought for a moment, and raised his hand.
The examiner, seeing Luo Xia's hand, looked puzzled and walked over, asking in a low voice, "Student, what's wrong?"
"Teacher, can I hand in my paper now?"
Luo Xia also asked in a low voice.
The examiner was taken aback. Handing in the paper?
He subconsciously glanced at the clock at the front of the classroom, realizing that the minute hand hadn't even passed the thirty-minute mark!
"You've finished the paper?" the examiner couldn't help but ask.
Luo Xia nodded and flipped the paper over, front and back, for the examiner to see.
Sure enough, all the questions on the paper had been answered, and the handwriting was neat and beautiful, almost like it had been printed!
"..." The examiner.
The handwriting was beautiful, but this kid probably just scribbled down random answers, right?
The questions this year seemed quite difficult, and he'd finished answering everything already?
After thinking for a moment, the examiner said in a low voice, "Alright, since you're finished, then leave."
Now, the rules for the National College Entrance Examination have changed. Unlike before The Great Nirvana, candidates aren't required to sit in the exam hall for a set amount of time.
Now, as long as they finish the paper and get confirmation from the on-site examiner, they can leave.
"Thank you, teacher."
Luo Xia thanked the examiner, neatly placing his paper on the table. Then, he gathered his admission ticket, ID, and exam tools. He quietly pushed back his chair and walked out of the classroom.
The other candidates were stunned to see Luo Xia leaving so soon.
So fast?
Did he finish, or did he give up?
The candidates were surprised, but they quickly put Luo Xia's departure out of their minds and focused on tackling the problems on their own papers.
At this crucial moment, they didn't have time to worry about anyone else's fate!
Meanwhile, in the next exam room, Luo Feng was pondering a multiple-choice question. He looked up and his eyes caught sight of Luo Xia passing by the window, and he was slightly taken aback.
"Third brother is already done with the exam?"
He subconsciously looked up at the clock at the front of the classroom.
Only thirty minutes had passed...
"That's too fast..."
Luo Feng knew his younger brother was smart, but finishing the science exam in half an hour still surprised him.
Muttering to himself, Luo Feng lowered his head and looked at the multiple-choice questions on the test paper. Suddenly, he had an idea. He quickly deduced the result on the draft paper and finally chose [C].
At the school gate, Luo Hongguo was standing in the shade with his second son, waiting for the exam to finish.
Suddenly, a surprised voice rang out, attracting Luo Xia and Luo Hua's attention.
"Someone's coming out!"
The other parents were also drawn to the voice and looked towards the school.
They saw a sixteen-year-old boy in a student uniform walking towards them, bathed in sunlight. A faint smile played on his handsome and proper face.
"It's Third Brother!"
Luo Hua said with delight.
Luo Hongguo was both happy and surprised, saying, "Oh, it's only been half an hour, how did Xia come out? Did he finish the exam?"
"Third Brother should have finished, right?"
Luo Hua hesitated, then said, "That's fast."
He also thought it was a bit too quick to finish the science exams in half an hour.
