Lantern Sister is still very capable.

Chapter 79 Rules

April 1st, April Fool's Day, is also the day of the first phase of intensive training testing.

After being woken up by Qingyu's cries, Chu Deng didn't go back to sleep. Instead, she went to the balcony to feed Qingyu and check on its molting.

The blue-feathered bird is a young bird; its feathers will fall off and grow back.

The shed feathers are jet black with some white at the base; they look nice as decorations, but have little other use.

Qingyu stood on the balcony eating the food that Chu Deng had saved from the restricted window of the cafeteria. After all, it was a beast, and it needed to eat energy-rich food to grow fast.

Chu Deng asked Wu Yun to build a nest for it on the balcony and put a level one wind-type crystal core inside so that it could absorb it.

After confirming that Jin Xiaoyue was a wood-type, she regretted not acquiring the level-four wood-type crystal core at the port. When Chu Deng contacted Shi Zhong again to exchange it, Shi Zhong said that it had already been sold and was still trying to find out if there were any wood-type ability users around her.

Chu Deng ignored him.

The level one fire element crystal core had little effect on her, so Chu Deng buried the crimson crystal core in the fire tree's flowerpot.

After settling the tree and the bird, Chu Deng saw that it was almost time, so she woke up the people in the dormitory and prepared to go to class.

Today is a full day of testing, no classes. According to Zhang Yijing, after the first phase of physical fitness test, training will be divided into two groups. Those who can't keep up will be assigned to another team. The difficulty of the second phase will be relatively lower.

The maximum score is 100. The average score is used as the dividing line. Those with an average score above the average score advance to the first team, while those with an average score below the average score advance to the second team to participate in the second stage of training.

Upon hearing this, many students who had suffered through the intensive training started to think about simply setting a score limit so that the second stage would be easier. Some people really didn't care about the extra points from the intensive training.

However, many students are also eager for the extra points from the training camp. They have heard that many universities will refer to this physical fitness score, and many people have learned in advance that some majors at the top 2 universities in the country require that the physical fitness score must reach the standard line in order to be admitted.

Many parents speculated that the sudden addition of this item, highlighting the increased emphasis on physical fitness, seemed to foreshadow something.

"Let's go, let's see how your training has gone." Chu Deng changed into his training uniform and walked side by side with Jin Xiaoyue.

"I heard Teacher Zhang explain the rules yesterday, but I still don't quite understand them," Jin Xiaoyue said, distressed.

"It sounds interesting to compete for points in an enclosed space, and it's even linked to physical fitness," Tu Leqi smiled, somewhat eager to try it out.

"I hope it won't be too tiring." Zhang Mengmeng's lips turned pale with nervousness; she was already scared before she even got into the car.

After the four finished breakfast in the cafeteria, they went to their classroom to wait for Zhang Yijing to organize the group before boarding the bus with the students from Class Two.

Zhao Lesheng and Zhang Yijing cheered on the students, one in front of the other on the bus.

"Do your best on the exam, I believe you can do it," Zhang Yijing said with a smile.

"Since we've participated, let's try our best to get the points. Our class can't lose to Class One!" Zhao Lesheng glanced at Pei Hanxing, then looked at Chu Deng from the next class, and thought it was hard to say.

Zhao Lesheng racked his brains but couldn't understand how the top student in his class could lose in physical fitness. However, when he thought of Chu Deng's feat at the sports meet, he couldn't help but wonder how the Chu family raised their child. He was good at both studying and sports. Who wouldn't love him?

So it's understandable that the top student in the class likes the girl next door, the "white moonlight" (a term used to describe someone who is unattainable).

Recalling the English he heard during morning reading that day, and Zhang Yijing's teasing of him, Zhao Lesheng blushed. Ugh... He didn't want to talk to Zhang Yijing for three days.

"Absolutely!" Meng Qiuhe shouted, strongly supporting her homeroom teacher.

The students in Class Two responded cheerfully, their spirit unwavering regardless of whether they could win or lose.

In contrast, the atmosphere in Class 1 was rather lukewarm, with no lively leader and many people watching Class 2's antics as if they were watching monkeys.

"The atmosphere in their class is pretty good." Tu Leqi was a little envious. She was an extrovert, but she couldn't get the class to be lively because of the group of top students. Everyone was focused on studying and there was little chatting after class.

However, the good thing about the class is that they have a sense of propriety and maintain a friendly social distance. They are very friendly to people with social anxiety, and Zhang Mengmeng adapted quite well.

The bus took nearly half an hour to reach the testing site. When they got off the bus, Zhang Yijing gave each of the sixty students a bottle of water.

"Chu Deng, here you go."

Chu Deng looked up and saw Gao Nannan from Class Two. She had no interaction with her.

"Thank you," Chu Deng said politely, then raised the bottle in her hand to Jin Xiaoyue, who was looking at her and getting water, indicating that her friend didn't need to help her carry it.

"I should be thanking you. I persevered on the first day of running laps because of your slogan. I originally wanted to quit the training camp, but I gradually kept going. I didn't expect that University A would suddenly announce a couple of days ago that the Biology Department requires a physical fitness score of 50 points to apply. Luckily, I didn't give up." After Gao Nannan finished speaking, she didn't dare to look at Chu Deng, blushed, thanked him, and ran away.

The girl's sincere gratitude left Chu Deng somewhat bewildered. She unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sip of water. When Jin Xiaoyue came to find her, she saw her friend, who was unusually lost in thought.

"Tengteng? We need to go get the training equipment."

"Okay, it's here." Chu Deng screwed on the bottle cap, glanced at the water bottle in her hand, blinked, and gently grasped it.

Can a single action indirectly change a person's fate?

Maybe……

The training equipment is a sensor card that is placed in the pocket of the training uniform. During the test, it can locate and score the participants in a timely manner.

After receiving the training equipment, the two class teachers explained some precautions to them.

"Raise your hand immediately if you feel unwell. There are surveillance cameras all over the place, and there are dedicated personnel watching to keep track of your situation. Safety and health come first."

This is both a reminder and a warning.

"Of course, if someone tries to cheat during the test, the supervisor will be able to see it clearly, so everyone should just take the test seriously."

After Huo Xuan and the other two homeroom teachers finished speaking, they stepped forward to explain the map for this assessment, as well as some rest and replenishment points and first aid points.

"The entire testing area is circular, but there will be intersecting straight lines in the middle of the circle. You need to accumulate 100 points. You will get one point for each time you complete the outer circle. Running one intersecting straight line counts as half a circle, which is half a point."

Huo Xuan gestured on the map as he spoke.

"The outer track is free of obstacles, but it is undoubtedly the longest straight section compared to the inner track. The inner straight section has obstacles. You can choose which one to use; there are no restrictions. Just get a hundred points. Don't worry if you don't get enough; your score represents your performance this time." Huo Xuan smiled. "Also, there are some small surprises hidden in the track. If you feel you have the ability or don't have high hopes, you can give it a try. You might be surprised by the results."

"Feel free to ask any questions you may have."

"Instructor! It's supposed to be a points competition, but where in the rules is there any mention of competition?" Meng Qiuhe asked.

"You'll find out when you get in," Huo Xuan said. "The test hasn't started yet, the signal isn't blocked, so I can't leak the questions."
