Chapter 6: Chapter 6 Cultural Course Examination

Translator: 549690339

Soon, the morning exams began. The first subject was God Transformation History.

The God Transformation Calendar started on God Transformation Day, and it is now 986 years since then, with a history of almost a thousand years.

Lin Zhen was very familiar with this historical process.

986 years ago, during the Gregorian calendar, it was 2026. A meteor shower from the Leo constellation descended on Earth.

People, who were initially excited to watch the meteor shower, soon discovered anomalies.

These meteors were not like the fleeting flashes that streaked across the sky; instead, they directly struck Earth. Countless meteors crashed into the earth’s surface, and their numbers were even greater before entering the atmosphere, shattering most communication satellites into pieces.

The larger meteors had diameters of several kilometers, causing natural disasters such as landslides, tsunamis, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and hurricanes. Disasters followed one after another.

Earth had no means of defense, and humanity wailed in the midst of disaster. The earth’s population drastically declined, from a peak of seven billion to three billion.

After the disaster, people were horrified to discover that Earth had undergone significant changes.

All life forms, whether human, animal, or even plant life, were infected by an unknown gas and began to mutate.

Human potential soared, and people became more powerful. Some people could jump onto the roof in one leap, some could move cars with their bare hands, and some could even control the flight of bullets.

The changes in animals were even more astonishing. Small insects died directly, while slightly larger creatures evolved various abilities and underwent significant changes in size.

Rats grew as large as wild dogs and hunted humans in packs.

Sparrows and swallows became like eagles, devouring flesh and blood.

Fish developed sharp teeth and even gained the ability to come ashore.

As for the already large animals, they became even more terrifying. Pythons tens of meters long could swallow cars whole, the eagles in the sky became as big as fighter jets, and even real fighter jets were no match for them.

The fierce tigers of the forest could overturn tanks, and the tall human bears could not be killed by artillery shells.

Moreover, the intelligence of these beasts evolved significantly, and they began attacking humans in groups, marking the beginning of the long struggle between humans and beasts.

Humans were once pushed to the brink of extinction, with little living space left. Firearms became increasingly ineffective against the beasts, and it wasn’t until martial arts systems were perfected and strong fighters emerged that the situation gradually improved.

Now, the earth’s population is less than 2 billion. Most countries have been completely destroyed, and only seven countries remain: Hua Xia, the United States, the European Union, the African Union, India, Sand Russia, and Brazil.

Of course, these countries are home to many foreigners. In the India District, for example, many people from various ethnic groups gather, albeit dominated by Indians.

Moreover, each country has lost its vast territories. People retreat to Base Cities, struggling to survive.

The once-beloved land, sky, and sea have all become the playgrounds for these mutated beasts.

People began to believe in the existence of deities. Human evolution was a result of divine grace, while human predicaments were due to divine might. Thus, the day the Leo meteor shower descended, people named it God Transformation Day.

Throughout the thousand years of God Transformation history, countless wars have been fought, and numerous heroic deeds have been sung and lamented. Rich in historical knowledge, it has become an official discipline.

Sitting in the exam room, Lin Zhen’s hand flew across the paper.

“The founding day of the Northern Base… God Transformation Year 475. Hero Yan Qiyue killed the Red Flame Tiger King in the Lesser Xing’an Range, then joined forces with the Gun King Chen Chong to strike down the water monster in the Changbai Mountain Heavenly Pool, ensuring the Northern Base’s survival…”

“In God Transformation Year 398, research on the epoch-making Gene Evolution Fluid succeeded. Every martial artist must undergo gene evolution, and the effectiveness of the evolution depends on each individual’s aptitude…”

“In the God Transformation Year 622, the first war between humans broke out, where Sand Russia and the European Union waged the Battle of the Black Sea. Numerous War God-level fighters took part.”

Answering question after question with lightning speed, Lin Zhen put down his pen about half an hour later.

“Finished. I can’t say the score is perfect, but at least it’s above ninety-five. Although cultural courses are not that important, ignorance is never a good thing in the end.”

After completing the history exam, Lin Zhen left the exam room, ate something in the middle, and saw Meng Dong again.

Meng Dong didn’t seem to be doing very well on the exam, but Lin Zhen knew he had passed, so he didn’t worry. They soon started the next exam.

There are currently only two cultural subjects, and the second one is Mutated Beast Knowledge.

To become a martial artist, one must understand mutated beasts. Though it may sound like “talking strategy from behind a desk,” if you don’t even understand the basics, you’ll be the fastest to die when facing mutated beasts in the future.

As for understanding this subject, Lin Zhen dares to say that even the school teachers are no match for him. After all, Lin Zhen has experienced many things and has killed countless mutated beasts with his own hands.

“Mutated sheep, low-level mutated beast, classified as E-level, relatively low intelligence, primarily attacks by charging, capable of withstanding small arms fire, recommending heavy fire coverage and attack. To kill as a martial artist, it is advised to use bladed weapons and strike from the side, aiming for the weakness in the abdomen.”

“Mutated wild boar, D-level mutated beast, has strong resistance to firearms, no obvious weaknesses. When attacking, it’s advised to strike from below the neck, severing blood vessels for best results.”

“Mutated owl, C-level mutated beast, fast-speed, nocturnal…”

Lin Zhen was even more at ease in this exam, quickly finishing and leaving the exam room.

After a while, Meng Dong came out, and the two waited for the examination results together.

After another while, the results came out on the electronic screen in the examination room.

First place, An Ning, total score 197 points, 99 in history, 98 in Mutated Beast Knowledge.

Second place, Lin Zhen, total score 195 points, 95 in history, 100 in Mutated Beast Knowledge.

Seeing Lin Zhen’s results, Meng Dong excitedly said, “Well done, Lin Zhen! You actually got second place! Although this is not the only criterion for martial arts schools to recruit students, your cultural score will still be considered in equal merit situations. And since girls generally don’t participate in the physical fitness tests due to their physique, An Ning will be taking part in the Base City civil service exam, so you’re actually the effective first place.”

Lin Zhen said, “You did well too, passing both subjects. This way, you’re qualified to participate in the upcoming physical fitness test.”

“Hehe, I have some confidence in the physical fitness test. I get a headache just looking at these cultural courses. Now that’s over, I don’t have to memorize books anymore.”

After all the results came out, most people passed successfully, and the afternoon physical fitness test will begin soon.

Lin Zhen’s face also became serious; after being reborn, the moment to change his fate had finally arrived.
