"Bang!"

On a playground in the southeast of the academy, Cheng Lin pulled the trigger, felt the trembling palms of his hands, and looked forward with wide eyes.

"Off target, next!"

Before he could see whether there were bullet holes on the shooting target fifty meters away, he heard a calm male voice in his ears.

Without looking back, he knew that the voice came from Lin Shuhai, the teacher of the shooting class.

"Sure enough, it still doesn't work......

Cheng Lin sighed in his heart, and put the standard pistol in his hand on the table in front of him as requested.

This is the first shooting lesson of the second week of school, and counting the two lessons from last week, this counts as the third period.

It was also the first time that Class 3 students had touched a real firearm.

First attempt at outdoor shooting.

Everyone is very excited, even the female students are no exception, after all, Xia Guo is forbidden to guns, except for special departments that allow guns, ordinary people may not be able to touch this thing in their lives.

Every boy has a dream of a sharpshooter when he is a teenager, and Cheng Lin also has it.

Unfortunately, the gap between dreams and reality is too great, and last week's two shooting theory classes did not help in the slightest.

Even if the target was already very close in Cheng Lin's opinion, it was still easy to miss the target.

It made him a little depressed.

"Bang!"

At this time, the little fat man standing next to him also pressed the trigger, and two seconds later, Lin Shuhai's almost repeater voice came:

"Off target! Next! ”

Cheng Lin suddenly felt that his mood was a lot more beautiful and balanced.

Shooting was in turns, and Cheng Lin had nothing to do while others were shooting.

He took out his mobile phone and looked at the time, there were still about ten minutes before the end of class at noon.

"Well, wait for lunch with Sun Xiao, this time I have to let him change stores to eat, even if the sauerkraut fish is delicious, there is no reason to eat it for a week in one go......

After eating, I won't practice yet, what's the afternoon class?

It seems to be an example of the application of martial arts and aura in various fields......"

Cheng Lin stood in the July wind, his eyes subconsciously chasing those invisible bullets, and his mind slowly recalled the afternoon class schedule.

It's been more than a week since I entered the college.

He has also adapted to the study life of the Ninth Academy.

If you can describe it in two words, it is "fulfillment".

There are six classes seven days a week, with only Sundays off.

Except for the cultivation classes that can't be thundered every day.

The "Reiki Manipulation" class topped the list with 5 sessions per week.

"Fighting" is second with 4 sessions per week.

The three courses of "Reiki Understanding", "Shooting", and "Ideology and Politics" are all 2 times a week.

The courses "Application Examples", "Spiritual Plant Cognition", and "World Art Appreciation" all ended with one session per week.

Cheng Lin's favorite classes are shooting classes and art appreciation classes.

The former satisfies a boy's yearning for guns.

The latter is because the female teacher who teaches the class is really temperamental.

And other than that, almost all of the time is occupied by cultivation.

The cultivation tide caused by "What other reason do you have not to work hard" slowly cooled down after the number of students who advanced to the second stage increased.

On the one hand, this kind of high-intensity struggle is really difficult to sustain.

Another very important aspect is that the rewards of each class are taken away, and the rest of the people are suddenly out of motivation.

Cheng Lin made a rough calculation.

At present, there are about 100 students in my class, and about 30% of the students have successfully reached the second stage.

And except for himself, who has successfully advanced to the 3rd dan, it seems that none of them have yet.

Cheng Lin reached the 3rd stage this morning, the same as when he was promoted to the 2nd stage, except that the concentration of the aura in his body increased by 0.1 quasi, and there were no other changes.

After being promoted, he was not in a hurry to find Wang Daming to get the book.

Anyway, there are no rewards for this promotion.

"It's very interesting to say that this concentration is very interesting, 1 stage rises 2 stages, and 2 stages rise 3 stages, both of which only increase by 0.1 accuracy, but the time spent is so different......

Even if Cheng Lin is not good at math, he can clearly see the numerical problem here.

The reasons for this problem should be complex.

It's probably the human body's mechanism for accommodating Reiki, but that's not what he needs to care about. (Note)

"There are less than 40 hours left in the cultivation speed bonus time...... I don't know if I can last until I get promoted. ”

Cheng Lin's mind turned, and he became a little worried.

The reason why his current cultivation speed is leading mainly relies on this 100-hour bonus, but when the remaining time is used up, Cheng Lin's cultivation speed will inevitably fall.

Even without bonuses, you can have a good speed.

But it is impossible to suppress Fu Zhongting again, I am afraid that even Xie Qingke can destroy him.

This made Cheng Lin a little worried.

And the biggest worry is still the problem of abilities.

He once asked Sun Xiao what changes had occurred after he was promoted to the second stage.

Sun Xiao's answer was that his Earth Elemental ability seemed to work better, and the number of times he could cast it had increased.

After getting this answer, Cheng Lin sighed.

For him, he really doesn't feel any promotion at this time, and his strength is also 0 improved.

At the end of the day, it's still lacking.

I learned from Xie Qingke that the academy has abilities that can be learned.

Cheng Lin originally pinned his hopes on this.

However, more than a week passed.

There's still no word out about learnable abilities.

Wang Daming didn't mention it, and the teachers of other subjects didn't say anything about it.

There weren't even rumors about it in the academy.

This made Cheng Lin gradually become a little anxious.

If you keep waiting, don't say when you'll learn.

Studying will definitely take a lot of time and energy, which will directly affect his participation in the college's monthly exams.

In turn, it affects the ranking and the access to resources.

"I can't drag it any longer, why don't you ask tonight?"

These chaotic thoughts flashed in Cheng Lin's mind, and ten minutes passed quickly.

With the sound of Lin Shuhai, the teacher of the shooting class, "Get out of class!" The students scattered birds and beasts, and he came back to his senses.

Carrying his schoolbag, Cheng Lin walked slowly along the road planted with beautiful ginkgo trees on both sides.

Most of the others were in twos and threes, and he seemed a little inconspicuous when he was alone.

Just slowly, slightly alone, falling behind the crowd.

Suddenly, Cheng Lin noticed a series of footsteps approaching behind him.

His head turned at a slight angle, and he saw a slender figure approaching behind him.

The first thing you see is the lower body.

Kindness......

Women's pants, no skirt, should be Xie Qingke.

"Hey."

Cheng Lin took the initiative to say hello and didn't expect her to respond, but he didn't expect Xie Qingke to nod, and then slightly full of steps.

The two walked side by side, about half a meter apart.

The students of Class 3 who happened to see this scene were all taken aback.

In particular, several girls covered their mouths in unison, widened their eyes, and looked this way.

Xie Qingke can be described as a model of coldness among the girls in the class.

They have the impression that they have never taken the initiative to approach others, especially men.

Cheng Lin was also very surprised: "Something? ”

"It's okay, I just wanted to ask you how your cultivation progress is."

Xie Qingke didn't squint, he seemed to be still looking ahead, but his mouth moved.

“…… That's already a problem......"

Cheng Lin blinked and said vaguely, "It's okay......"

Xie Qingke turned his head, and on that white face, his two eyes seemed to blink in response.

Then he said: "I just received the news that Fu Zhongting has reached the third stage. ”

"When?" Cheng Lin was a little surprised.

I didn't expect the guy surnamed Fu to chase after him so closely.

"Just now, just tested."

Cheng Lin nodded clearly.

sighed secretly, it's really a genius, and with his talent, he can almost catch up with an open player like me.

Will you have it in the future?

When the acceleration time runs out, won't it be overtaken?

Cheng Lin thought in his heart, but he forgot that in the eyes of others, it was Fu Zhongting who kept the lead, and the reason why Xie Qingke came to ask seemed to be asking if he could catch up......

"You're not surprised?"

Xie Qingke saw the flat expression on Cheng Lin's face, and couldn't help but ask in a surprised tone.

In her opinion, Cheng Lin's expression was too calm.

Shouldn't you be anxious to hear that your competitors are ahead?

"I was surprised." Cheng Lin was stunned and said seriously.

Xie Qingke: "...... Yes. ”

Why can't I see it at all......

"Yes," Cheng Lin nodded, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "That classmate Fu is really powerful, the daily course is so heavy, and he can break through again so quickly." ”

He said this sentence sincerely, if he didn't hang up, it really can't be compared, this has to be convinced.

"What about you...... You ......" Xie Qingke was speechless for a while, not knowing how to answer.

"You're trying to ask when I'll catch up?" Cheng Lin smiled.

"Yes." Xie Qingke nodded vigorously.

"What about you? How far are you? Cheng Lin asked rhetorically.

The girl who wrapped herself tightly in the sunny day of July shook her head when she heard this, and said in a slightly depressed tone: "I should still be far away, and the day after tomorrow will be tomorrow at the earliest." ”

“…… Eldest sister, you're not slow anymore, are you? That's enough to kill 99% of the students in this year. ”

Cheng Lin thought in his heart, and his evaluation of this girl was a little higher.

He remembered that Xie Qingke had also listened to other classes well in the past few days, instead of using all the classes for cultivation.

With such a speed, it seems that her aura control level has been greatly improved.

Cheng Lin analyzed, sighed softly, chased a wind-blown green leaf on the side of the road, and whispered, "My words...... Then tonight. ”

……

……

In the afternoon, the martial arts class still did not teach martial arts, but practiced a basic skill.

The application class is also ancient and waveless.

This time, Cheng Lin, who had experience, slowly finished the three-hour evening self-study, and only after finishing did he go up to the fifth floor and came to Wang Daming's office.

"Knock knock."

"Please come in."

After getting a response, Cheng Lin opened the door and saw Wang Daming, who was sitting behind his desk, poking his head out from behind the computer monitor.

He also had a thermos mug in his hand.

The eyes are facing each other.

Wang Daming seemed to have guessed something, and his eyes suddenly changed from normal to cold......

Cheng Lin swallowed and foamed, and said seriously: "Teacher, I am here to receive the third volume of the "Meditation Sutra". ”

"Plop."

The thermos cup fell vertically on the table, but fortunately it was not spilled.

……

Note: The real reason is that the author's brain is pumping, and the setting is wrong, but after thinking about it, it doesn't affect the plot, so I won't change it.

PS: There is one more chapter of transition, and the third deduction will begin...... Do you want to guess what will happen to the earth?
