Although the strong have strong force, the resources consumed in the practice are far beyond ordinary people, and the huge cost of cultivating a strong warrior is unimaginable to ordinary people.

Unless they have amazing talent, it is difficult for the common people to get ahead in this area. Only a very small number of lucky people can reach the top of society, and these people, without exception, have shown outstanding talents since they were teenagers, and are eventually favored or recruited by some large families to provide resources behind them, and a small number of them have received official funding.

In this era of cataclysm of danger, martial arts powerhouses will naturally become the elite of society.

This kind of social status gap has also caused that in the Chiyan Continent, martial artists are respected, and all ordinary people aspire to become powerful martial artists.

Of course, the benefits of being strong will ultimately manifest themselves in terms of benefits.

However, his family background ......

Thinking of this, Ling Li sighed softly helplessly.

The class bell rang, interrupting Ling Li's musings.

Yang Nan, the homeroom teacher and math teacher, is a beautiful woman, Ling Li is listening to the class very hard, but she is a little frightened in her heart, for fear that the teacher will suddenly ask questions. He can understand the lessons taught by the teacher, but if he asks himself to answer the questions, he still occasionally has problems, and his brain suddenly short-circuits, especially when he is nervous.

In the Red Flame Continent, mathematics uses the decimal system, and Ling Li often subconsciously uses the decimal algorithm, which is a common-sense error, and for this reason, there are many jokes during the three years of study after entering the city. For example, some very simple first-grade questions: 1X+10=? , he would often subconsciously answer as 2X, which immediately caused a burst of laughter.

In this cruel world, education pursues the principle of not beating the machine, not only hitting the palm, but sometimes also pulling the leg. The whip made of rattan is like a wire rope, and when this thing is pumped on the body, the taste makes the hairs on the whole body stand on end just thinking about it.

By the way, in the Chiyan Continent, the so-called first standard of beauty is to be physically strong, and that is often used as a hand to hold the heart, and the weak Sister Lin is a kind of ugly girl. Teacher Yang Nan, who was wearing a half-sleeved shirt, had knotted muscles on his exposed half-amputated arms, just like Mr. Bodybuilding in his memory......

After half the class with trepidation, Ling Li finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the teacher finally stopped asking questions at any time after the lecture. Maybe it's about to graduate, everyone knows what the situation of the students is, and the teacher is not as strict in the classroom as in the past.

When class was about to end, Yang Nan, as the head teacher, once again mentioned the matter of registering for the college entrance examination less than three months later.

Qingya City Fifth National High School is an ordinary civilian school, and less than 8% of the students can be admitted to universities every year. In other words, among the more than 600 graduates this year, only more than 50 lucky people will be able to successfully enter the university and enter the threshold of becoming the elite of society, and the vast majority of others will enter the society and begin to support themselves.

In this world where supplies are relatively scarce, there is no need to worry about unemployment caused by overproduction.

Now that I think about it, in another world, it would be a different kind of happiness to be able to lose your job after college......

Chen Mo, who was at the same table, looked at Ling Li and asked, "Aren't you going to register for the college entrance examination?" ”

Ling Li shook his head calmly: "Not necessarily, I can't pass the exam if I sign up, so I'm still going to find a slightly better job." ”

"If you don't get admitted to university, you can't get out of the bottom of society, and it's too difficult for people like us to meet the standards of martial artists." Chen Mo sighed and said.

Ling Li looked at Chen Mo a little strangely and said, "I didn't expect you to see it quite thoroughly, but with your academic performance, there should be a door." ”

"Alas, it's rare to have a few beats in life, and I'm just getting some edges, so the closer I get to the college entrance examination, the more pressure I feel in my heart, and I haven't slept well recently." Chen Mo said.

Ling Li opened his mouth, wanting to say something reassuring, but finally shook his head and didn't continue.

Chen Mo's parents are both in the city, and their family background is better than Ling Li's, but they are also average, and like Ling Li, they both live in the civilian area at the foot of the city wall.

The last class of the morning was a handicraft class, and the practice classroom was a maintenance workshop similar to another world, with more than a dozen machine tools, and I heard that they were imitations of machinery and equipment excavated from the ruins. However, there is no electricity in this world, and energy spars and energy generators and power equipment are used to drive machine tools, and energy spars are very rare and precious, so machine tools and other equipment in schools are not often used.

Middle school students generally learn to use hand tools to make mechanical parts, weapons, armor, and metal items for everyday life. At one end of each workbench is a vice that can be used as an anvil, as well as a small hand grinding wheel. In the tool rack are a variety of hand tools: pliers, wrenches, tapers, saws, files, etc., and students learn and practice using these tools to make specific items.

The content of the handicraft class is to continue the practice of the previous lessons: repairing armor.

This kind of armor is just the talisman armor of the Cold Weapon Era, and it is not the kind of very high-level individual soldier source energy mechanical armor. The teacher of the mechanical handicraft class was surnamed Fu, about fifty years old, and had a beard. He was a mechanical repairman who retired from the military. In front of his classmates, he used only a few simple materials to make a model airplane that could fly around the campus.

In this era, mechanic is a profession with a high status and status.

It's just that if you want to become a mechanic, you need to awaken the ability first, and be able to make an energy generator formation diagram, the conditions are very harsh, and the right talent is very rare. Every year, there will be several Ability Awakeners in the Fifth Kingdom of Qingya City, and these lucky guys will soon be arranged to go to a specialized school in Beiliang City or Xiqin Mansion for key training, and their families will also be arranged to work in the government and become decent public servants.

The Federation treats these paraphiles very highly.

Mr. Fu heard that he had retired from the army and joined the school as a teacher because he had suffered serious physical trauma, which he also took the initiative to propose.

In class, Mr. Fu repeatedly mentioned that human beings can never compete with those powerful alien beasts physically, but the biggest difference between human beings and other species is that they can make and use tools, weapons, etc., and because of this, human beings have the ability to resist those alien and mutated species on this planet.

However, the students are learning the basic skills that mechanical apprentices will master.

Due to his family background, Ling Li will work as a helper in a hardware repair shop not far from his home during holidays, so his basic fitter skills are okay among his classmates. Although his academic performance is average, Mr. Fu, who teaches machinery, often gives him high marks in the assessment, and he is also very good to him.

Ling Li was in charge of repairing a pair of damaged arm guards, which had been badly deformed when they were brought over, and the surface was covered with tooth marks, and even the five-millimeter-thick alloy steel plate had been bitten through several tooth holes. There was still a lot of blood left inside and outside the armguards, showing the cruelty of the war with the alien beasts, which should have been torn armor recovered from the battlefield.

In this world, metal smelting technology is not yet mature, these advanced technologies are in the hands of some of the top big families in the Federation, monopolizing the supply of materials, and ordinary cities like Qingya City are mainly from metal recycling materials in the ruins of humans before the cataclysm.
