Chapter Five: The Dangerous Mining Business



This world takes pride in being a soldier and considers holding a high military rank an honor.

Zhang Xi wasn't the most outstanding student in the school, but she was definitely an excellent student, easily ranking in the top twenty.

Once he gets into Longming Academy, where the teaching staff has suddenly increased significantly, his value will inevitably rise accordingly.

Four years later, even if Zhang Xi's grades are at the bottom of the class, he can at least become a lieutenant.

Returning to Tianzhou as a junior officer, even without continuing to serve in the military, would mean receiving extremely high compensation and benefits from working for any company.

But what about Jiang Chu?

With his score, he'd be lucky to graduate as a non-commissioned officer. When he meets Zhang Xi, he'll definitely be inferior to him.

At that time, Jiang Chu might need his help!

This Jiang Chu is quick-witted; he knows the gap between us and is already starting to flatter me!

Thinking of this, Zhang Xi felt very smug, and even a little regretful for being so harsh on Jiang Chu earlier.

Alright, I'll try to build a relationship with this kid after today. Maybe it'll help me win over Luo Xiaonan!

Zhang Xi knew that Jiang Chu and Luo Xiaonan were not boyfriend and girlfriend, but he just couldn't stand that Jiang Chu clearly didn't like Luo Xiaonan, yet he insisted on occupying that spot and preventing other men from getting in.

He hated even more that Jiang Chu always used the excuse of helping Luo Xiaonan make things difficult for him.

But now, seeing Jiang Chu's transformation, he also wants to change.

However, his arrogance will not change.

Being friends with Jiang Chu from a superior position isn't a bad thing; it can even intimidate him in crucial moments.

So, Zhang Xizhi walked up to the force measuring instrument with a sense of pride and conducted the test first.

The instrument's screen loomed over Zhang Xi's head, radiating light as it began scanning his entire body.

A few seconds later, the screen flipped, and Zhang Xi's various data appeared on it.

Wow! Overall combat strength of 328! Senior Zhang Xi is so tall!

"If I had this combat power, I could get into Dragon Roar Academy next year!"

Many students looked on with envy.

A small group of top students in the second year of high school are not convinced. Their overall strength is around 280 to 290, and they have a good chance of challenging Zhang Xi's score next year.

Those from wealthier families can purchase training chambers for their own use and combine them with training and simulated firearms combat to improve their overall combat capabilities.

Those with less favorable conditions may not be able to afford the culture chamber.

Because the cultivation pod costs at least 3 million, and that's just the most basic one. The most advanced cultivation pod costs at least 15 million, which is one of the fastest ways to improve overall combat power in the early stages.

Zhang Xi's family is extremely wealthy. His father is the vice chairman of a catering group, and Zhang Xi is his most valued son, so he has provided him with extremely favorable conditions to improve his combat power.

"If nothing unexpected happens, I should be able to reach 340 battle points by the time school starts." Zhang Xi smiled slightly at Jiang Chu. "Come on, you should give it a try. I reckon you should be around 300 battle points after all this training, right?"

Zhang Xi's words were quite sarcastic.

After all, in terms of family background, Jiang Chu's family was not as well off as his.

Jiang Chu didn't argue. He simply walked quietly to the force measuring instrument, took off his shoes, and went inside.

The instrument has begun to assess Jiang Chu's overall combat capabilities.

A gentle light enveloped Jiang Chu, making him feel a warmth spreading through his body.

Zhang Xi looked smug. He knew very well that even if he couldn't have Luo Xiaonan now, Jiang Chu couldn't either.

Because Luo Xiaonan is too outstanding.

The more outstanding a woman is, the more resources she will have in this world. These resources include not only medicine and training systems, but also connections.

When Luo Xiaonan becomes a shining star in the military, the men surrounding her will surely be outstanding individuals as well.

At that time, as an unknown figure, even if Luo Xiaonan wanted to elevate Jiang Chu, he would probably be powerless to do so.

In that environment, it would be very difficult for Luo Xiaonan to maintain her original aspirations.

Not to mention others disagreeing, even Luo Xiaonan's strict father probably wouldn't agree.

At this moment, Luo Xiaonan was in a particularly bad mood.

She had wanted to advise Jiang Chu not to fight with Zhang Xi, but she knew Jiang Chu's personality too well.

This seemingly unassuming guy actually has an extremely strong sense of self-esteem.

Now, she can only pray that Jiang Chu's overall combat strength is not particularly low.

But looking at Jiang Chu's composed demeanor, Luo Xiaonan felt that Jiang Chu must have trained his overall combat strength to around 300!

Jiang Chu's data was quickly displayed on the screen of the force gauge.

For a moment, everyone, including Jiang Chu, couldn't help but widen their eyes and were no longer able to remain calm!

Name: Jiang Chu

Faction: Hidden Dragon

Military Rank: None

Military rank: None

Physical fitness: 89

Intelligence: 117 (+5)

Vision: 170

Overall combat strength: 376

...

"376? My god, Senior Jiang Chu's overall combat strength is too high!"

"Yes! Aside from physical strength, the other two are terrifying! Vision and intelligence are very difficult to improve with a cultivation pod!"

"Senior, how exactly did you train? Can you tell us your methods?"

Jiang Chu remained expressionless, but a little smugness lingered in his heart; it was something he was born with.

However, Jiang Chu was a little puzzled as to why his intelligence had suddenly increased by 5 points.

Moreover, his physique improved slightly after being attacked by zombies. Can others improve like that?

Having just entered this world, Jiang Chu was filled with unknowns about many things, and he could only explore them slowly in the future.
