49: Travel to the spirit world
Not long after, Guo Feng and the others arrived at the classroom.
Today, there was no studying; instead, as soon as everyone arrived at school, they exchanged their autograph books.
They wrote blessings for the end of their youth in them.
Boys and girls held back from confessing to the people they liked.
Some even secretly shed tears.
High school life, just like that, was gone forever.
Brother Dong also waited for a while before coming in to distribute the examination permits and other items needed for the college entrance exam.
He explained the precautions.
They agreed on a time to go to the examination hall to check it out.
Then came the group photo.
The crew went downstairs, girls in front, boys behind, stepping down the stairs, revealing smiles that captured their youth.
The peace sign, never out of style.
Afterward, everyone cleared the books from their desks and drawers, then performed one last big cleanup.
During this time, Guo Feng received three bottles filled with folded stars, two diaries, and more than a dozen postcards.
Five handmade, very ugly knitted scarves.
“My high school, it just ended like that!”
Everyone waited for the final dismissal bell to ring, waved goodbye, and left the high school classroom forever.
Smiling.
Crying.
Making promises.
However, Liu Qiang stood beside Guo Feng, sighing endlessly, “It’s a pity, I don’t even have a single postcard.”
Guo Feng rolled his eyes at him, stretched lazily, “They’re done, but the crew isn’t; for the mock exam, we need to prepare.”
“How to prepare?”
Liu Qiang was stunned for a moment.
Guo Feng chuckled, “What kind of awakened do you think I am?”
“Ah? Oh, right! I forgot!”
Liu Qiang’s eyes lit up, and he quickly said, “Let’s call Luo Juan and go spend some money!”
Guo Feng nodded, about to leave.
Zhang Xi and Lu Qiaoqiao, however, walked up, “Guo Feng, we also want to join your crew; after all, I’m a B-grade beast-morpher, I can block for you.”
Lu Qiaoqiao also said, “I’m also level three, I can fight, and I can help with logistics.”
“Heh.”
Liu Qiang chuckled, “Sorry, not needed!”
Guo Feng shrugged, “Our crew’s requirement is level five and above, with the exception of enoki mushrooms.”
“You—”
Zhang Xi was furious, was this joke never going to end?
Guo Feng smiled, “What, are you ashamed and angry, going to hit me?”
“Zhang Xi, forget it, let’s go find other people to team up with.”
Lu Qiaoqiao quickly pulled Zhang Xi.
In the class now, who dared to lay a hand on Guo Feng?
Zhang Xi gritted his teeth, “Guo Feng, you just wait for me! Entering the spirit world, it’s all about individual luck! One day, you’ll pay for what you said today!”
“Let’s go!”
Guo Feng completely ignored Zhang Xi, took Liu Qiang, and went to Class One to find Luo Juan.
The three of them left together, driving towards the shopping mall in the city center.
Around one in the afternoon.
They returned to school.
Upon reaching the school gate, Guo Feng waved his hand, and the spirit world 9 disappeared in a flash.
“Holy cow, such a big car just vanished like that, it’s so cool!”
Liu Qiang couldn’t help but cheer, “I’m actually looking forward to our spirit world journey.”
“Me too.”
Luo Juan also nodded quickly, her face full of excitement.
“Same here, I hope the crew has a great harvest this time!”
Guo Feng said, then he and Liu Qiang went to the training ground.
As soon as they entered, they saw Chen Lingfeng’s deadpan face.
Once everyone had arrived.
Chen Lingfeng had Zhang Xi distribute some manuals and an agreement to everyone.
Guo Feng took the agreement and saw that it required everyone to obey commands; otherwise, they would not be held responsible for any incidents.
And an agreement to keep secrets related to the spirit world confidential.
The manual contained some basic introductions to the spirit world.
After everyone signed the agreement, and Zhang Xi collected them, Chen Lingfeng took the manual again.
He explained it page by page to everyone.
This was Guo Feng’s first time encountering the spirit world, so he listened very carefully, even taking notes in some places.
Chen Lingfeng explained it once, then mentioned some precautions, and then clapped his hands, “Alright, now, follow me, we’re taking the bus to the back of Qingcheng Mountain!”
After he finished speaking, he led the crew downstairs.
A bus was already waiting for them.
They got on the bus, and after more than an hour, they arrived at the parking lot at the back of Qingcheng Mountain.
At this time, there were already more than a dozen buses parked in the lot.
They were all from the senior year special training classes within Rong City’s jurisdiction.
They got off the bus and, led by Chen Lingfeng, lined up to wait.
“That’s from First Middle School; it’s said that First Middle School has an S-grade talent, and several at levels five or six.”
“Look quickly, Seven Middle School is here. Seven Middle School also has an S-grade, and what’s even more impressive, they have several at levels seven or eight!”
“Ninth Middle School doesn’t have an S-grade, but they have ten A-grades, terrifyingly strong!”
As they arrived, other vehicles also arrived one after another, and in some teams, people were whispering.
Guo Feng’s current physical fitness naturally allowed him to hear everything clearly.
Today, they were all wearing their respective school uniforms.
Most people carried weapons.
He noticed that many schools only had seven or eight people, while others had a dozen or twenty.
Their crew of thirty was considered relatively large.
However, famous schools like Fourth, Seven, and Ninth Middle Schools were much larger in scale, as they had many branch campuses.
Each had forty or fifty people.
There were also some private high schools; these people were not numerous, but their strength was very high.
Everyone was young, so competitiveness was naturally inevitable.
Therefore, when their eyes met, there was an air of provocation.
“This mock exam seems like it won’t be simple; how did these people cultivate? I heard the strongest one is at the peak of level nine!”
Liu Qiang felt a headache coming on.
He was considered excellent in First Middle School.
But seeing this dense crowd, his peak level four seemed utterly insignificant.
Even though Luo Juan was already level seven, like a rocket.
She couldn’t catch up to those top performers.
Fourth, Seven, Nine, and the well-known private schools, indeed lived up to their reputation.
“I know the one at the peak of level nine; it’s Qi Zi Mou from Seven Middle School, that S-grade, he’s from the Qi family.”
“And I also know that besides him, there are three other level nines, five level eights, and ten level sevens.”
Luo Juan said in a low voice.
Guo Feng’s eyes lit up; he naturally believed Luo Juan, after all, her uncle was Luo Hong, the Ministry of Education spokesperson.
He frowned, “This is just Rong City; although it’s the provincial capital, it doesn’t rule out other hidden talents within Shu Province. And looking at the entire country, how many prodigies are there?”
“Yes, it really puts a lot of pressure on you!”
Liu Qiang had been quite pleased with himself before.
Now, comparing, he knew he could only be considered upper-middle class.
Of course, it wasn’t just a matter of talent.
There were also resources!
One must know, the more prestigious the school, the more intense the parents’ internal competition became, with endless methods.
Before, it was about studying.
Now, it’s about cultivation.
The essence hasn’t changed.
“Oh, that’s not what I meant.”
Guo Feng shook his head, “What I meant is, having so many prodigies for me to beat up, I’m a little excited!”
“…”
Liu Qiang’s mouth twitched.
Chen Lingfeng also couldn’t help but glare fiercely at Guo Feng.
Lost his mind, had he?
Zhang Xi sneered, “Guo Feng, you’re only tough at home; do you have the guts to provoke those level eight and nine ones?”
“Alright!”
Guo Feng immediately nodded, walked straight to the middle of the field, “I heard you have a few level eight and nine classmates; come out, my boss wants me to see how much you’re worth!”
As soon as he spoke.
Everyone looked at him!
