Monthly Test

He didn’t go to the martial arts hall as usual. Instead, he went to the firearms hall.

Saturday afternoon was meant for firearms class. Students had to learn how to operate and shoot common firearms.

The students of the New Era had much busier schedules compared to students of the Old Era. The burden of learning has also become heavier.

Students in the New Era only had one day off on the weekends.

The winter and summer holidays were occupied by various activities, training, and missions. There were also very few legal holidays that a student could take their off days for.

It was very normal. Everyone was at war, mutated beasts attacked the city every day, and all kinds of mythical creatures trampled the cities.

How could everyone have the leisure to go on vacation and rest? They were too busy thinking about how to improve their strength and how to survive on the battlefield.

The country was vigorously nurturing students. To a certain extent, these people were the future reserve soldiers of the army.

“This is a ninety-two semi-automatic pistol. There are two calibers, five point eight mm and nine mm. The one in my hand is the former.”

Shen Yanhu pointed at the pistol in his hand and explained further.

“Although the caliber is small, the steel core bullet with small mass, high initial velocity, and large aspect ratio will easily lose its stability after entering the body, causing it to deviate and roll, resulting in a large cavity.

“It can easily go through flesh, and the tempered steel core also has good armor-piercing properties.

“Small-caliber bullets are small in mass and size, so they can increase the amount of ammunition carried, reduce the load, and improve combat effectiveness.

“As for the nine mm caliber, at close range, it has high lethality and good stopping effect, but it is bad at armor-piercing.

“This pistol is widely used in our army. You will come into contact with it often in the future, so you have to be familiar with this gun.

“It can deal with any exotic beast at or below Level One. At Level Two, you’ll need to aim at the opponent’s weakness to effectively kill them.

“The effective range of this gun is about meters…”

Chu Lingjun rolled his eyes, and his desire to continue listening decreased.

The range of his two skills was 50 meters.

If that was the case, it would actually be more convenient and faster for him to use his superpower instead of this pistol.

“This assault rifle was developed by our country. It has seven point six two mm bullets and is supplied with thirty rounds of ammunition. The fixed grenade launcher can fire sixty mm anti-tank grenades with blank bullets or fourty mm grenade launchers with live ammunition.

“It has a maximum range of two thousand meters, and an effective range of eight hundred meters.

“This assault rifle, also known as Wolf Fang, can deal intense damage to Level One exotic beasts, while Level Two exotic beasts can deal effective damage. If you use grenades, you can injure Level Three exotic beasts.

“However, the Wolf Fang has a strong recoil. You have to at least break through to Rank One martial artists or have the rifle specialization ability of Spirit Domain to use it easily.”

Rifle Specialization, Sniping Specialization, and other superpowers in the Spirit Domain were actually a comprehensive ability.

It included physical strength, endurance, vision, muscle strengthening, body control, coordination, and a series of comprehensive abilities.

Of course, in terms of a single strengthening ability, such as muscle strengthening, it was naturally not as good as the Rank One strength strengthening of the Battle Domain.

“Next we will talk about Eagle Strike, a sniper rifle…”

Everyone listened intently. Qu Xia, who had the infrared vision ability, and Sun Ji, who had the spiritual bullets, listened attentively and excitedly.

The explanation finally ended, and it was finally time for everyone’s favorite activity — shooting targets.

He mainly wanted to try out the 92 pistol, Wolf Fang assault rifle, and Eagle Strike sniper rifle. He needed Shen Yanhu’s approval before he could use them.

The recoil of the two guns at the back was very strong. If one’s cultivation was not strong enough, the recoil might accidentally break the shooter’s shoulder. It was very dangerous.

The firearms class ended at five in the afternoon.

Obviously, Qu Xia and Sun Ji had the best shooting results. Their shooting skills were not 100 percent accurate, but most of them were within the 85 to 100 score. Their accuracy was very high, which was advantageous for espers.

After school, Chu Lingjun continued to arrange for Zhang Liang to clean up the restrooms.

Zhang Liang, who had been cleaning the toilets for almost a week, gritted his teeth and looked at Chu Lingjun. His nose was about to go crooked from anger!

At this moment, Ding Peng, Chen Zhiqi, Lin Yin, and Zhuo Chang looked at each other and walked up to Chu Lingjun.

“Hey, we’re going to the White Cloud Mountain arena this weekend. Do you want to go?” Ding Peng asked.

“Sure? Just us?” Chu Lingjun was stunned.

The White Cloud Mountain was about 20 kilometers Southeast of Quicksand Town. It was not too far away.

However, the White Cloud Mountain was within the range of the Iron Peak Mountain. Although it was at the outskirts and the army would patrol it regularly, there would still be exotic beasts roaming around, causing a certain degree of danger.

With the strength of Chu Lingjun, Ding Peng, Chen Zhiqi, and the others, they might be able to deal with a Level One exotic beast if they encountered one. However, if it was a Level Two exotic beast, they would definitely die.

Although martial artists fought for everything and there was no need to be afraid of bloodshed, Chu Lingjun felt that there was no need to take such a risk.

If they were unlucky enough to encounter a Tier Two exotic beast, it would be a sure death.

With his clone talent, steady development was the best way.

“Of course not,” Ding Peng quickly said, “My brother is a second-year student in our school. Tomorrow, they will be going to the Iron Peak Mountain to train, and there will be teachers following them.

“We’re just going to take a look and scout the area. I asked the form teacher just now and he agreed for us to go.

“They said that if we encounter some mutated beasts, if the situation permits, they will let us practice and increase our combat experience. The monthly exam is next month. I think it’ll be good to get some practice.”

That’s right. Chu Lingjun nodded.

As a student of the school, he had to report to the teacher and the school every time he left the city.

As the top student of his class, Chu Lingjun had stricter requirements in this regard. This was also written in black and white on the contract.

The school didn’t want such a talent to be wasted and die

At the end of each month, students would have to take a test. The test would cover their syllabus that they studied for the month.

Those who scored well in the monthly test would be rewarded, and if their results were not satisfactory, their resources would be reduced.

Therefore, every student placed great importance on the monthly test.

“Alright, shall we meet at the school gate tomorrow morning?” Chu Lingjun replied.

With someone protecting him, he was more than willing to venture out into the fields.

He could also see the outside world and witness the battle scenes he longed for.

Ding Peng was right. It was good to get some hands on experience.

In addition, there was a river at the foot of the mountain. Chu Lingjun could take this opportunity to go out and set the electric eel free.

With the current level of the electric eel, it would take a longer time for it to level up. It might also attract the attention of other martial artists or superpowered people that regularly visit the lake.

He did not want his electric eel to die!

“Yes, we’ll gather at the school gate at seven in the morning tommorow.”

“How many of us are going?”

“You, me, Chen Zhiqi, Lin Yin, Zhuo Chang, Qu Xia, and Sun Ji. Seven of us.”

“Alright.”
