Swallowing the Stars: My Comprehension is Beyond the Heavens!

Chapter 6 The College Entrance Examination, the First One to Emerge

"Brother Yang, Sister Hua...we'll head back now."

After their sparring session, Luo Xia and Luo Feng stayed at the martial arts hall for a while longer, until almost 9 p.m., before saying goodbye to the others in the training hall and heading home.

In the following month.

Luo Feng devoted almost all his energy to reviewing.

Luo Xia wasn't under much pressure regarding the college entrance exam, and he still went to the martial arts gym to practice every day.

He felt that his strength had subtly improved again.

Days pass by.

Soon, the time for the college entrance examination arrived.

July 7, 2056 AD.

On this day, the college entrance examination officially began.

Although the college entrance examination today still shares the same date as the one before its major transformation, the content of the exam is quite different.

The first day's exams were in the sciences, mainly a combination of physics, chemistry, and biology.

The second day's exam was for humanities subjects, which consisted of a comprehensive test of history, politics, geography, and Chinese.

The third day's exam was in mathematics.

While English remains important in this era of global cooperation, it is no longer included in the college entrance examination due to the widespread use of translation machines.

The Luo family was at the entrance of the No. 1 High School in Yi'an District.

Because the First High School was designated as an examination venue, Luo Hua, who is still in his second year of high school, was able to have a six-day holiday. Today, he and his parents brought Luo Feng and Luo Xia to take the exam.

"Xiaofeng, Xiaxia, don't be nervous. Relax during the exam. Even if our family can't get into the top military academy, the second one will do."

Father Luo Hongguo looked at Luo Feng and Luo Xia and said with a smile.

"Hmm..." Luo Feng nodded with a smile.

Rorschach stood by, seemingly unconcerned.

Anyway, he doesn't plan to go to university. He's only here to take the college entrance exam today to experience the atmosphere of this future college entrance exam.

It doesn't matter whether you do well or poorly on the test.

Besides, with his current level of understanding, he doesn't think those college entrance exam questions would be difficult for him.

"Beep—beep—"

At that moment, a brand-new Mercedes-Benz, all black and exuding an aristocratic air, slowly drove up, escorted by police motorcycles, and finally stopped in front of the main gate of No. 1 High School.

The surrounding examinees and parents quickly made way for the police motorcycles and Mercedes, while their attention was focused on the Mercedes.

Three people got out of the Mercedes and walked towards the school gate, chatting and laughing.

Rorschach pricked up his ears and overheard the whispers around him, figuring out the identities of the three people—

"The bald guy on the left, that's Chief Zhang of the police station in Yi'an District."

"Isn't that Director Liu from the Education Bureau on the right?"

"The one in the middle must be the martial artist in charge of the overall security of the examination venue."

Luo Xia carefully sensed the martial artist's aura and discovered that the other party's strength was at least that of a high-level warrior!

Because the war between humans and monsters has not ended, and warriors have been on the front lines fighting against monsters, warriors hold a very high status in this era.

Many of the candidates and their parents present looked at the martial artist with reverence.

"Click click click—"

Just then, the school gates finally opened, and the crowd surged forward. Someone shouted, "Let's go in!"

Luo Hongguo, the father standing nearby, quickly said to Luo Feng and Luo Xia, "Xiao Feng, Xiao Xia, you two should go inside quickly."

Mother Gong Xinlan added, "Sons, hurry up and take your exams. Mom will come back later and cook you something delicious. Tell your dad and Xiaohua to wait for you here!"

Looking at Luo Feng and Luo Xia, Luo Hua continued, "Big brother, third brother, good luck to you both!"

"Um."

Luo Feng and Luo Xia nodded at the same time, exchanged a glance, and walked into the campus together.

……

"Big brother, are you in the exam room over there?"

"Um."

"come on."

"Keep it up, you too!"

Upon arriving at the examination hall, Luo Xia discovered that his elder brother Luo Feng's examination hall was right next to his. After exchanging words of encouragement, they then entered their own examination hall.

He sat down in his assigned seat and placed his admission ticket and ID card on the upper right corner of the table for the examiner to check.

Then, bored, I waited for the examiner to send out the test curls.

Apart from Luo Xia, a second-year high school student who was taking the exam at a different grade, everyone else in the classroom was a third-year high school student from this year. Luo Xia didn't recognize a single one of them.

In a rather tense atmosphere, the examiner handed out the test curlers.

Luo Xia glanced at the test paper. The questions were not difficult. After just one glance, the answers and solutions appeared in his mind.

Luo Xia picked up his pen and started writing. In less than half an hour, he had finished the entire paper.

Luo Xia glanced at the examiner above him, thought for a moment, and then raised his hand.

The examiner noticed Luo Xia's hand, his eyes filled with suspicion. He walked over and asked in a low voice, "Young man, what's wrong?"

"Teacher, can I hand in my paper now?"

Rorschach asked in a low voice as well.

The examiner was taken aback. Hand in the paper?

He subconsciously looked up at the clock at the front of the classroom and realized that the minute hand hadn't even moved past thirty minutes yet!

"Have you finished your test?"

The examiner couldn't help but ask.

Rorschach nodded and flipped the paper over so the examiner could see it.

Sure enough, all the questions on the test paper had been answered, and the handwriting was neat and beautiful, as if it had been printed on!

"..." the examiner.

The handwriting is beautiful, but did this kid just scribble down an answer randomly?

I think this year's questions are quite difficult. Have I finished answering them all?

The examiner thought for a moment and said in a low voice, "Alright, now that you've finished writing, you can leave."

In this day and age, the rules for the college entrance examination have changed. Unlike before the great rebirth, it no longer requires candidates to sit in the examination room for a certain amount of time.

Now, once the test paper is completed and confirmed by the examiner, the candidate can leave the examination room.

"Thank you, teacher."

Luo Xia thanked him, neatly placed the test paper on the table, then put away his admission ticket, ID card, and exam tools, before quietly pulling out his chair and leaving the classroom.

The other candidates were somewhat stunned to see Luo Xia leave so quickly.

Why are you walking so fast?

Is it finished writing, or has it been abandoned?

The students were surprised, but they quickly put Luo Xia's departure out of their minds and focused on tackling the difficult questions on their papers.

At this critical moment, they don't have time to care about other people's fates!

At that moment, in the next examination room, Luo Feng was pondering a multiple-choice question on the exam paper. He looked up and suddenly caught sight of Luo Xia walking past the window, his expression slightly stunned.

"Has Third Brother finished his exams?"

He subconsciously looked up at the clock at the front of the classroom.

Only thirty minutes had passed...

"That's way too fast..."

Luo Feng knew his younger brother was smart, but he was still somewhat surprised that he could finish the science exam in half an hour.

With a muttered word, Luo Feng looked down at the multiple-choice questions on the test paper. Suddenly, an idea struck him, and he quickly worked out the result on the scratch paper. In the end, he chose [C].

……

At the school gate, Luo Hongguo and his second son stood in the shadows, waiting for the exam to end.

Suddenly, a surprised voice rang out, attracting his and Luo Hua's attention.

"Someone's coming out!"

Other parents were also drawn to the sound and looked towards the school.

A sixteen-year-old boy in a school uniform walked towards the sunlight, his handsome face bearing a faint smile.

"It's my third brother!"

Luo Hua said with delight.

Luo Hongguo was both pleased and surprised, saying, "Oh dear, only half an hour has passed, how come Xia is out already? Has he finished his exam?"

"My third brother should have finished his exams, right?"

Luo Hua said hesitantly.

He also felt that finishing the science exam in half an hour was a bit too fast.
