Chapter 237: The Beginning of the Wasteland Reclamation

Chapter 237: The Beginning of the Wasteland Reclamation

Time flew by rather quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was already March.

In March, it was still rather chilly in Beijiang Province, and the snow had yet to melt even though the festive mood of the Lunar New Year was long gone.

In the past month or so, Jiang Xiao’s performance had been “improving” rather smoothly.

The exams for the second semester of Year Three in high school were like normal lessons, for there were exams every day at random timings.

Jiang Xiao had managed to grasp the opportunity to ensure that his results wouldn’t improve drastically, while his teachers and classmates, especially Han Jiangxue, could recognize his hard work and efforts.

For Jiang Xiao, who had been furthering his postgraduate studies, working tirelessly in his previous life, and constantly been in contact with English in his previous life, the High School English examination was a piece of cake.

He did rather well in Mandarin, Math, and Politics. After all, he was an Awakened student in this lifetime and the examination questions were relatively simple for him too.

Out of the six options, Jiang Xiao chose to attempt Politics, Geography, and History.

Physics was a shortcoming of his. Hence, Jiang Xiao thought he could try taking the exams for Biology and Chemistry, but he later realized that he had been reading too much into things.

If he had to choose a safe subject to sit for during the college entrance examination, Jiang Xiao would still choose “Liberal Arts.”

The Geography subject in this world was rather similar to that of the one he was in previously. Besides, the compulsory “Star Study” subject that Jiang Xiao had to sit for involved the “Landforms and Geomorphology of Dimensional Spaces” as well as plenty of geographical knowledge. It could be considered a full package.

It was the same for History. The history of this world before the middle of the 20th century was no different from that of Jiang Xiao’s previous life. There were only changes in modern history after the emergence of a Dimensional Space during the middle of the 20th century.

Jiang Xiao simply had to memorize that information and there was not much of a technique involved. He didn’t have to understand the concepts at all. As long as he memorized the information, he would be able to score some points.

Ever since Han Jiangxue “accidentally” obtained the honor of being a righteous person during the Lunar New Year and was awarded 10 bonus points for the college entrance examination, her goals for the college entrance examination had become higher.

To what extent?

She set her sights on the Beijing Star Warrior University, which was the highest institution amongst all Star Warrior universities in China.

In the beginning, Han Jiangxue had never revealed which university she wanted to go to and finally disclosed it to Jiang Xiao after the Lunar New Year, on the eve of the Second Wasteland Reclamation Competition.

“I want to go to the best school.” That was exactly what Han Jiangxue said in the beginning.

“Shanghai Star Warrior University or Beijing Star Warrior University?” Jiang Xiao answered.

“Which city do you prefer?” Han Jiangxue asked.

At that moment, Jiang Xiao knew that she would not only go to the best school, but she would also take him with her too.

At this moment, Jiang Xiao finally knew that his “Year Three” life had truly begun!

From now on, they would have to work hard and go all out in every competition in the future. Jiang Xiao would definitely be indulging in the sea of knowledge every single day in the future.

If Jiang Xiao took the initiative to go read up on books, he would at least have a chance to breathe. However, if Jiang Xiao did not have any self-awareness, he knew that he might drown in the sea of knowledge because of Han Jiangxue.

Fortunately, Jiang Xiao’s foundation was very solid and the examinations for the Awakened students were relatively simple as well. Hence, Jiang Xiao’s results were rather surprising.

Whenever the scripts were distributed, Han Jiangxue would look at the results and rankings, and then be thrilled deep down. She was genuinely happy for Jiang Xiao.

If both of them could be admitted to Beijing Star Warrior University, their late parents would definitely be gratified.

Yes, Jiang Xiao chose to go to Beijing Star Warrior University.

The reason was simple: he wanted to catch his breath.

Um… no, it was because Beijing Star Warrior University was better than Shanghai Star Warrior University.

Since Han Jiangxue wanted the best, she should go to Beijing Star Warrior University, which was the best school.

It was no exaggeration to say that the honorary title of being “brave and courageous” which he unexpectedly received had changed his future.

Even without the bonus points, Han Jiangxue would still be able to go to whichever school she wanted, but with the bonus points, she felt that Jiang Xiao could be taken to greater heights and work hard in a better environment.

The Beijiang Province Second Wasteland Reclamation Competition was just around the corner and the members of the team were all very relaxed.

Self-confidence stemmed from competency.

Han Jiangxue’s newly acquired Gold Quality Star Technique, Chain Lightning, was an explosive output Star Technique that caused massive damage.

Xia Yan’s newly acquired Gold Quality Body of Star Power was also terrifyingly powerful.

During the Nebula Stage, Goddess Xue and Goddess Yan had both obtained Gold Quality Star Techniques which had indeed greatly increased the team’s strength.

Besides, with Jiang Xiao’s highly functional supportive Star Techniques, their team would really have no problem dominating over all the high schools in Beijiang Province.

In fact, speaking of Gold Quality Star Techniques, Jiang Xiao would probably shock everyone greatly if he were to light up his Big Dipper Star Map.

He had the Gold Quality Green Glow, Endurance, Nostalgia, Dawn, Counter-current Light, and Sound of Silence.

Li Weiyi finally acquired the last Star Technique of his life in the Nebula Stage. However, it was not an output Star Technique but a supportive one. It was Perception!

When Li Weiyi saw Xia Yan wasting her last star slot on “Body of Star Power”, a Star Technique that wasn’t entirely wonderful, for the sake of the team’s victory, Li Weiyi felt rather upset.

Logically speaking, if it were for the team’s sake, Star Techniques like the Body of Star Power should be absorbed by the Shield Warrior. However, Xia Yan decided to do it.

Li Weiwei didn’t know what to say. After a night of self-study, he held a small meeting with the team members to discuss which Star Technique he should acquire for his last star slot.

At last, Han Jiangxue chose to use the most useful Star Technique for the team, “Perception”.

Li Weiyi would definitely give his teammates great help, be it in terms of searching for enemies, exploring the various landforms, or looking for creatures of other dimensions.

Li Weiyi decided to keep to his word. After more than half a month of operations, he finally obtained the Star Bead of a Langur from Northern Hubei, which was just as special as the Ghost Fox from Below the Stars Level 3 in Dameng Province. They both only had one type of Star Technique.

The Ghost Fox had an individual Gold Quality Star Technique, Roar of Fear.

On the other hand, the Langur had a Brass Quality Star Technique, Perception.

Yes, it only had one Star Technique which was of Brass Quality.

Li Weiyi was different from Jiang Xiao. He didn’t want to absorb Star Beads that had as many Star Techniques as possible. After all, he couldn’t absorb multiple Star Techniques from one Star Bead.

He wanted a specialized Star Technique. Hence, he did everything he could to buy Star Beads from Northern Hubei.

After absorbing the Brass Quality Star Technique, Perception, Li Weiyi had acquired all eight Star Techniques of the Nebula Stage.

Li Weiyi then brought them the Ghost Wolf Star Bead from Dameng Province and replaced the Brass Quality Perception with the Silver Quality Perception.

It was a splendid move of his. Although there were numerous Star Techniques in the Ghost Wolf Star Bead, all eight of Li Weiyi’s star slots had been filled up, and since he was at the Nebula Stage, he could not acquire any other Star Technique. He had no choice but to replace it with the Silver Quality Star Technique, Perception.

Before the college entrance examination, their Star Techniques had basically been finalized. Unless Han Jiangxue could break through the Galaxy Stage at the last minute, the team members would have to combine their Star Techniques and fight against everything that came their way.

Of course, there may also be changes happening to Jiang Xiao.

However, Jiang Xiao was already strong enough at this moment. Even the best High School team in the nation would definitely be in awe of Jiang Xiao and express their heartfelt admiration for him. They would call him a “God-like supportive member.”

He could summon a clone, result in repulsive effects, control, heal, absorb, share Star Power and Vitality, and help with shouldering some of the burdens of his team members. The key was, he had toxins!

That was the most disgusting thing about it.

The toxins were not from Blessing but from the Gold Quality Enmity!

Catching a cold, fever, and having a runny nose were all minor issues, but the most terrifying effects were burns, frostbites, paralysis, dizziness, and vomiting…

Who could stand that?

The odds may be small, but who would want to risk it?

That had indirectly given Jiang Xiao a halo of protection. No one would want to touch the disgusting toxic healer.

If Jiang Xiao were to ignite his Star Map now and choose a team, any team of high school students would probably kill to vie for him.

No one could ask more of Jiang Xiao, because everyone, of all levels, felt that he had already done everything he could.

However, Jiang Xiao could clearly do a lot more.

Silver Quality Bell and Inheritance had given Jiang Xiao greater room for growth!

Why was that the case?

Due to the fact that Hai Tianqing had smilingly looked for them and informed them of the venue for the Second Wasteland Reclamation Competition.

It was the volcano Dimensional Space!

Upon hearing the name of the Dimensional Space, Jiang Xiao was overjoyed!

Why had he been delaying in going to the volcano?

Due to the fact that it was a high-level Dimensional Space, Jiang Xiao and Han Jiangxue would have to pay an entrance fee! They couldn’t afford to go there to play at all.

Great, everything I want is happening!

Everyone, look. Watch how I make all those Lava Ghouls throw up!
