The memories of all humanity are awakening, except for mine.

Chapter 159 Transformation, Fame Awaits!
"First place, Jiang Chuan, 49 seconds!"

"Second place, Lin Ci, 3 minutes and 29 seconds!"

"Third place..."

After announcing the top ten list, Cao Zhigang said that the rankings of the others would be distributed via a table.

However, the students didn't care about the rankings; they chatted in small groups about everything that had happened so far in the second phase.

Jiang Chuan was also reviewing everything that had happened to him in the past month or so.

Over the past month, I've evolved into the second state of flow, completed the fourth lecture of the mental power course, received my first month's salary, and am about to receive the bonus for the second-stage ranking.

Several major events occurred, and he personally killed several people...

From the Zhao Tianyu incident to the cause-and-effect seizure incident, then to the escorting of the chessboard mission, and the operation to remove Li Guo'er's spiritual body...

It was a crazy yet fulfilling month.

The mysteries surrounding me are multiplying. I initially thought it was just a matter of not dreaming, but now I realize there seems to be something sinister going on in my dream world. Li Yu says my karma is rejected by the Heavenly Dao, Xu Linlin says my destiny is strange, and Li Guo'er's desire to transfer her soul is also related to my destiny…

Shatter fate, break the cycle of cause and effect.

This is the uniqueness of one's destiny, at least from the current perspective.

Li Yu said that the source of all these peculiarities came from his own strange dreams. Although he did not know the origin of these dreams, he thought that as long as his strength improved, these mysteries surrounding him would eventually be solved.

Perhaps I should go home and rummage through my parents' belongings to see if there's any information I haven't noticed before.

My life has undergone a dramatic change in just one month.

I met many people and experienced many things, which was more exciting than the previous ten years of my life combined.

From a lazy emperor to a king of rolls, what a transformation!

Jiang Chuan stood in the crowd, surrounded by his friends.

He actually felt a little... that he wished these days could always be this peaceful and ordinary.

But Cao Zhigang's voice broke the slight sigh that had arisen in his heart.

His signature booming voice reverberated across the playground:
"Everyone, the second phase of the training has concluded!"

"The third phase of training is about to begin!"

"You have three days off before the start of Phase Three!"

"Enjoy your well-deserved holiday time. The third round of training will officially begin in three days, on October 1st!"

"I won't waste any more words, dismissed!"

At 2:30 p.m. on September 27, the final day of the second round of assessments came to a complete end.

Jiang Chuan broke the headquarters' technical team's time limit for the second phase of big data computing with a time of 49 seconds, compared to 3 minutes and 20 seconds.

At 2:40, the group arrived at the medical station.

Zhong Huahua had woken up, but her face was still deathly pale.

Tian Tian grabbed her hand and said, "Hua Hua, you'll never guess how long it took to get first place."

Zhong Huahua was stunned for a moment, then looked at Jiang Chuan: "Three minutes and twenty seconds?"

Before Jiang Chuan could speak, Tian Tian chuckled and said:

I'm afraid you won't believe me even if I tell you.

"Jiang Chuan broke the record to within one minute."

Zhong Huahua's pupils contracted slightly: "Huh?"

She probably wanted to say "How could that be?", but when she saw Jiang Chuan, she couldn't bring herself to say those four words.

If it's Jiang Chuan, it's not surprising what he can do.

Tian Tian held up four fingers: "Forty-nine seconds!"

Zhong Huahua stared at Jiang Chuan in astonishment, and after a long pause, said, "That's amazing..."

Tang Songming interrupted Zhong Huahua:
"I have come to visit Miss Zhong today because I have something to discuss with you all."

"How should I spend my three-day holiday?"

Lin Ci raised his eyebrows and said, "What else can we arrange? Continue training to prepare for the third phase of training."

Song Xi frowned: "How can we waste such a precious holiday?"

Tian Tian echoed, "I feel the same way."

Chen Ming said, "The more you practice, the further you fall behind."

Lin Ci looked at Chen Ming, but Chen Ming kept his eyes down and ignored Lin Ci's gaze.

At this moment, Jiang Chuan cleared his throat and coughed.

"I do have some ideas."

Everyone turned their attention to Jiang Chuan.

Jiang Chuan said, "How about we go out for a meal together?"

He shook his phone: "Two hundred thousand will arrive tomorrow. I'll pay for the dinner."

Ai Zhe's eyes lit up: "Mr. Jiang is so generous!"

"I knew Mr. Jiang was broad-minded. Where shall we eat?"

Not only Aizhe, but everyone else looked very excited.

Seeing that Jiang Chuan had already said so, Lin Ci also chose to go with the majority and said, "I can bring the wine with me."

Jiang Chuan said, "Let's take advantage of the holiday and go to the city."

"As for what to eat..."

He paused, somewhat perplexed, and the first place that came to mind was the restaurant that Wu Qingqing had taken him to.

Seeing Jiang Chuan's dilemma, Li Yi smiled and said, "Then why don't we let Song Xi choose the place? She's the best at eating."

Song Xi's eyes began to light up.

She immediately fell into deep thought; Jiang Chuan had never seen such a serious expression on her face before.

Zhong Huahua sat on the hospital bed, watching her friends chatting enthusiastically, a smile appearing on her lips.

Jiang Chuan nodded: "Then it's settled."

The afternoon sun streamed into the wards of the medical station, where everyone chatted and laughed, seemingly marking the end of their hard work and sweat over the past period.

Jiang Chuan brought this up partly to thank everyone for bringing him back gifts from Yanjing…

On the other hand, after witnessing so many deaths and permanent separations in Qingshan, he felt he should do something.

……

Cao Zhigang reported the results of the second phase of training to headquarters.

At the Yanjing headquarters, the training program team was bustling with activity.

Everyone gathered in front of the giant floor-to-ceiling screen in the office. A staff member said with a solemn expression:

"Are you ready?"

"Qingshi's results are in!"

Someone else said, "Stop keeping us in suspense, hurry up!"

Someone chimed in, "I'll bet five! Zheng Yang's score is better than Jiang Chuan's!"

Someone immediately retorted: "Zheng Yang's 3 minutes and 23 seconds is impressive, but Jiang Chuan has been making consecutive contributions recently, so his level is definitely higher than Zheng Yang's! I'm betting five on Jiang Chuan!"

Without further hesitation, the staff member holding the remote control pressed the button.

When the final assessment report of the second phase of training in Qing City appeared before everyone's eyes...

Suddenly, the office fell silent.

Although many of them predicted that Jiang Chuan would win, when they saw this number, the outcome suddenly became unimportant.

Someone squinted, staring at the scene before them, their face filled with astonishment, as if they thought they were seeing things. Class One... Jiang Chuan... 49 seconds?
After a moment of silence, a sudden burst of astonishment and awe erupted!

"49 seconds!?"

"My grass!"

"Is this kid even human?! How did he do that in 49 seconds?!"

……

This data was immediately disseminated to the relevant departments.

In the office at the very end of the seventeenth floor of the headquarters building, the old man heard the 49-second recording from his secretary, paused for a moment, but then a smile appeared on his lips.

He calmly said, "I understand."

The secretary bowed slightly, then turned and left.

The old man kept his eyes on the documents in his hands.

The document is titled "First Draft of the Development Plan for Princess Anle's Tomb".

Beside him were documents labeled "Impact Assessment of the Princess Anle Incident" and "Analysis of Princess Anle's Soul Transfer Technique and Subsequent Personnel Arrangement Plan".

Although the Qingshan Tang Tomb incident has been resolved, the follow-up to the Qingshan Tang Tomb is not yet completely over.

Those field team members who perished in the mountains were sent back to their hometowns, and their families received a substantial compensation payment.

In addition to these follow-up procedures, the development of the Qingshan Tomb must continue.

A new archaeological team has been assembled and is heading towards the Anle Tomb.

A master restorer was thrilled to see the minister statue in Anle Tomb, declaring it a gift from history to modern times. However, he was unaware that the truly priceless statue had already vanished into the annals of history.

"Hopefully, the tomb of Princess Anle... can reveal some secrets."

"Whether it's about those emperors or the secret of awakened memories, I can accept it."

As the old man thought this, his brow gradually relaxed a little.

Regardless of how secretive the process was, several exceptionally talented individuals did emerge from this training program.

Like Zheng Yang from headquarters, Cheng Zhu from the west, and Han Chang'an from the north...

But of course, none of these children are as good as this Jiang Chuan.

"It doesn't matter if these secrets are not revealed."

"Our future is certainly bright."

"Right now... it's just the darkness before dawn."

……

In the dormitory of Class 1 at the Yanjing Training Center, Zheng Yang saw a message from her teacher.

"49 seconds?"

"..."

He had never taken that kid named Jiang Chuan seriously, but seeing the other's records now, his expression turned serious.

"How could it be 49 seconds?"

"How did you do it?"

At that moment, he suddenly remembered what that guy named Wu Zhen had said.

"You're nowhere near as good as the number one in Qing City!"

"He doesn't even need to be this serious to completely defeat me!"

He initially thought these were just words spoken by those guys from the Qing City government to save face...

At this moment, Zheng Yang developed an immense interest in that guy who was a thousand kilometers away.

……

The headquarters technical team received a call from the training program team.

As soon as the call connected, the training program team leader's questioning voice came through:

"The limit time is 3 minutes and 20 seconds!? What's with this 49 seconds!?"

The head of the technical team wasn't intimidated at all; he immediately retorted:
"You're asking me? I'm asking you the same question!"

"How would I know what happened!?"

"This data was all handled by your planning team. The time was obtained from the data. I haven't had a chance to call you to ask yet!"

"The limit time is indeed 3 minutes and 20 seconds!"

"But Jiang Chuan's growth rate has far exceeded our expectations, what are we supposed to do?!"

"Under normal circumstances, this is certainly correct, but do you think Jiang Chuan is normal?"

"Tell me the truth, is he normal?"

After being reprimanded by the head of the technical team, the person in charge of the training program team fell silent.

When the technical team leader heard that he had refuted the other party, his voice immediately became more composed:
"The 3-minute-20-second limit is for those kids. According to the normal growth curve, they can only reach 3 minutes and 20 seconds at most during a month of training. Look at Han Chang'an and Zheng Yang, one is 3 minutes and 22 seconds and the other is 3 minutes and 23 seconds. This shows that our situation is correct. But if you ask a student who is from the second tier to the fourth tier to break through the barrier, then the 30-meter dash is a piece of cake for them."

"So we still have to analyze specific problems in specific ways. It's not that our data is inaccurate, it's just that Jiang Chuan is too different."

The training program leader nodded and said, "Then you'll have to cooperate with us. Jiangchuan needs a separate training mechanism."

"If he continues training, there's too little room for improvement in the third phase of training."

"If we miss out on a new opportunity, we will be held responsible."

The head of the technical team chuckled: "Don't worry, these are not problems."

"You get the plan out, and we'll fully cooperate!"

"I've heard that Jiang Chuan is a master of manipulation. I'd like to see just how far he can go!"

……

December 9st.

Cao Zhigang received a notification on his phone regarding the third phase of the training plan from headquarters.

Unlike the second phase, the third phase plan notification includes two documents.

The first document is the file for the third phase of regular training.

The second document concerns Jiangchuan's unique training program.

Cao Zhigang looked at the plan with some surprise.

"Um……"

He first glanced at the second individual training plan for Jiang Chuan, and a smile appeared on his lips when he saw the "care" the technical and planning teams showed for Jiang Chuan.

Next, he looked at the first document.

The first thing you see on the document, "Phase Three Regular Training Program Planning," is a QR code.

Below the QR code are two lines of smaller text.

"Scan the QR code above to download the organization's internal software, register and log in."

"After the third phase of training begins, students will be guided to download the app, and their combined ranking based on merit points and grades will be displayed in the ranking system."

After the smaller print, the formal course materials begin:

The training and theoretical courses for the third phase are arranged as follows:

Cao Zhigang glanced at the information he needed to convey to the students in the theoretical course, and the smile on his lips quickly faded.

"Is it necessary to know these things so early?"

"..."

"It's not too early either."
