As for adding more chapters, I’m in the period of releasing a new book and even if I want to speed up, I cannot.
A mouthful of fresh blood sprayed out, and Chen Hai’s entire body was hit by a wave of dizziness and blurred vision.
It was just the first divination, and already, he felt ; he dared not continue the divinations that followed.
“Chen Hai, what’s wrong with you?”
Sitting deliberately at the back of the classroom, Chen Hai, with his back to those few classmates filling out their college entrance examination choices, certainly didn’t see him spitting blood.
But Teacher Chen on the stage was facing his direction.
At this moment, Teacher Chen He Ping had already stood up anxiously and rushed to Chen Hai’s side with quick steps.
“It’s just spit up some blood, nothing serious, Teacher Chen!”
Shaking his head, speaking somewhat breathlessly, Chen Hai responded.
“Are you sure it’s nothing?
Do you need to go to the hospital to take a look?”
Concerned that his earlier words might have been too harsh, Teacher Chen worried that it was because of his words that Chen Hai had vomited blood.
“I’m really fine, Teacher Chen, you deal with your matters, don’t worry about me.”
“It’s just an old ailment; resting for a couple of days, and I’ll naturally recover!”
Chen Hai replied, knowing his own condition the clearest.
Because he stopped the divination in time, even though he was seen spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood, the problem wasn’t serious.
By nightfall, bathing in the moonlight for just a day or two, he should be able to recover.
As a self-taught Tao Cultivator, he had stumbled and made himself weak many times before.
He was an expert at dealing with this kind of situation, having become all too familiar with it.
If we’re talking about his swift recovery after each soul injury, the main reason was the Undying Characteristic he had glimpsed from that terrifying existence that he had obtained from it.
If it were someone else, like Chen Hai, suffering blowback and soul damage, who knows how long it would take to fully recover.
“All is well, all is well!”
Teacher Chen sighed in relief as Chen Hai reassured him.
“You, at your age of eighteen or nineteen, already a grown man, and yet your psychological resilience is just so poor?”
“Just because of poor college entrance exam results and some harsh words from a teacher, you are upset to the point of vomiting blood; why bother?”
“Since you say you’re fine, just rest up.
Don’t take the teacher’s words to heart.”
Sighing, Teacher Chen advised kindly.
“Okay!” Nodding his head, Chen Hai stood up, swaying as he walked out of the classroom.
“Chen Hai, I told you to rest in the classroom, not to go back!”
“It’s fine, Teacher Chen.
I’m just a country kid, tough-skinned and hardy.
As long as I can move, I can definitely make it back!”
Leaving behind those words, Chen Hai didn’t stop his stride, and in the blink of an eye, he exited the classroom.
Outside, the sun blazed like fire, but Chen Hai’s figure cast a kind of indescribable desolation and loneliness.
“That guy Chen Hai, just because of bad exam results, actually got so angry that he spit blood, how embarrassing!”
“If only he knew this would happen, why did he bother?
If he had just listened attentively in class and reviewed hard, he wouldn’t have gotten such results.”
“Say less, be careful your words reach Chen Hai’s ears.
I heard that guy has connections outside school, and those who used to hang out with Qian Bing are deathly afraid of Chen Hai.”
“If he finds out you’re speaking ill of him behind his back, he’s bound to beat you!”
The few students who were filling in their university preferences in the classroom had relatively better grades.
Birds of a feather flock together, and their relationship with Chen Hai was naturally not very close.
When Teacher Chen hurried over to Chen Hai, these students had also turned their heads and noticed the scene of Chen Hai spitting up blood.
While Chen Hai was present, they didn’t say much, but as soon as Chen Hai left, these guys instantly huddled together and started whispering among themselves.
Teacher Chen He Ping, however, closely followed Chen Hai and left the classroom.
Seeing that Chen Hai was walking steadily and nothing seemed amiss, he watched as Chen Hai departed.
Only after Chen Hai had completely disappeared from his sight did he return to the classroom.
At the school gate, near the flowerbeds.
Aside from Zhang Yong and Zhang Zhi, Hu Zhiyong, for some reason, had also come over and joined them.
Unlike the rural kids like Chen Hai, Hu Zhiyong and the others were all town residents and lived right in Wuyang Town.
Excluding the rural areas below, Wuyang Town wasn’t very large.
On normal days, Hu Zhiyong, Zhang Yong, and Zhang Zhi would often run into each other and hang out together.
When Chen Hai appeared in front of the group, his gait was no longer unsteady, but his complexion was still somewhat pale.
You look a bit pale, are you okay?”
Zhang Zhi, with his sharp eyes, quickly noticed something off about Chen Hai and immediately asked.
“What could be wrong?
It’s just that the exam results were less than satisfactory!” Chen Hai forced a slight smile as he replied.
“Brother Hai, with our grades, no matter how well or poorly we do, it’s impossible for us to get into university anyway.”
“It’s just the worry over the exam results, what’s there to be depressed about!”
“I have a cousin over in Yuedong, and from what he tells me, you can just get into any factory over there, and I can’t vouch for more, but making over five hundred a month should be no problem!”
“I’ve got it all planned out, after some time passes, I’m going to go work with my cousin.”
“Give it three to five years, and who knows, if I’m lucky, I might become a boss by then, and the ones who went to university will end up working for me!”
Zhang Yong, that guy, was carefree and even started joking around.
If Hu Zhiyong hadn’t coughed lightly to interrupt him, his boasting could have gone on for at least half an hour.
As the class representative, Hu Zhiyong had good grades and fell into the category of a good student.
His performance in this college entrance exam was alright, he scored a 530.
That score wouldn’t be enough for the prestigious Tsinghua University and Peking University, but if he wasn’t choosy, getting into an ordinary university wouldn’t be a problem at all.
“Aren’t we just waiting for Li Ying to come over too?” Chen Hai deliberately changed the subject to avoid talking about the exam scores.
“Li Ying and Sun Fang went straight to Qingshui Garden.”
“She gets annoyed the moment she sees me.
When she spotted me here, she took Sun Fang by the arm and walked away!”
“They’ve probably already booked a private room.
We should head over there quickly, to save ourselves from her picking bones in the egg later on and finding fault with me!”
Shrugging his shoulders, Zhang Zhi looked helpless and gave a wry smile.
Originally, he and Li Ying got along quite well, and he was just a step away from holding her hand and walking down the street together.
Ever since the incident that night in Shuang State, the way Li Ying looked at him was filled with faults.
If it weren’t for Chen Hai’s dinner invitation, Li Ying, seeing Zhang Zhi, would probably have taken a detour.
