I'm a senior in high school, and the Emperor Development System has arrived!

"Didn't you say that serious people don't do homework during holidays?"

"Was this homework written by a dog?"

The next morning, the first day of the senior year of high school, Li Bin looked at Chen Zhou's desk, which was covered with homework, and was furious.

Chen Zhou glanced subconsciously in Lin Xiaomeng's direction.

Class monitor, someone called you a dog.

But considering their close friendship, Chen Zhou didn't tell Li Bin the truth. Instead, he patted him on the shoulder and said:
"Bin, you have no sense of perspective. Don't worry about whether I've done my homework or not."

"But if I wrote it, doesn't that mean you wrote it?"

Upon hearing this, Li Bin's eyes lit up, and he immediately said:

"Damn, as expected of you, Elbow, your brain is really sharp."

After saying that, he picked up his homework and began to use the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth.

Chen Zhou chuckled.

With just a few words, someone was willing to do anything for me. I don't need to say more about their strength, right?

The morning reading time passed quickly.

First period in the morning.

Class meeting.

Shen Enxi walked in dressed in formal work attire and then wrote the five characters "First Lesson of Senior Three" on the blackboard.

Then, she looked at all the students in Class 8 of the third year of high school and uttered her first words to the new senior class:

"Students, the college entrance examination is not the end; it is just the beginning of your life."

"Some of you may have performed exceptionally well and been admitted to prestigious universities; others may have performed poorly and missed out on undergraduate studies."

"But whatever the outcome, this is just the end of this phase for you."

"I've seen top students who got into Tsinghua and Peking Universities but were expelled for being addicted to games, and I've also seen high school dropouts who later became successful entrepreneurs worth tens of millions."

"Grades are only one aspect of your life. They may increase your chances of success, but they do not define your entire life."

"So what I want to say here is that senior year of high school is important, but not that important..."

Perhaps it's because the first and second years of high school have been promoting the idea that the third year of high school must be very hardworking.

Surprisingly, Shen Enxi relieved their stress and burden upon arriving today.

This made Chen Zhou feel a little uncomfortable.

However, regardless of what Shen Enxi said,

The real senior year of high school has begun.

Once the formal semester begins, the class schedule will no longer consist of two consecutive periods of summer tutoring.

Instead, it's a combination of one class and another.

Of all the subjects, only mathematics still has two classes a day, while the other subjects generally maintain one class a day.

The second and third periods consist of consecutive math classes.

Compared to Shen Enxi, who was dressed formally, Shao Xi, as a subject teacher, did not need to be so formal.

He was still wearing his usual plaid shirt and sandals, casually walking into the classroom, then tossing down a set of test papers:
"We'll be learning trigonometry tomorrow, so let's do a set of classic problems first to check for any gaps in our knowledge."

Upon hearing this, the whole class complained.

Is it reasonable to have an exam on the first day of school?
However, that's just Shao Xi's teaching style.

Before reviewing a new unit, he would make one or two sets of test papers with typical examples from that unit and then give them to the students to do.

Before each question, he would thoughtfully mark the name of a classic question and provide hints on how to answer it.

If you can complete about 70-80% of the test, it means you've solidified your understanding of this chapter's content.

But if you're completely wrong, then I'm sorry, just wait for Comrade Shao Xi to ask you questions every day in class.

The exam papers surged like a tide, flowing from the front row to the back.

Chen Zhou received the test paper, scanned it from beginning to end, and chose to take out the competition question bank.

This test paper is too basic.

He's not even worthy of doing it.

Moreover, the math competition is tomorrow, although level 3 math skills are enough to crush even the most outstanding students.

But there's never a problem with last-minute cramming.

When Shao Xi came back and forth on his rounds, he noticed what he had written, glanced at it twice, and said nothing.

This set of test papers is a basic set, so it was indeed a waste of time for Chen Zhou.

In Shao Xi's eyes now, Chen Zhou is no longer a student in an ordinary class.

His math skills would be quite good even in a top-tier class.

Not to mention tomorrow's math competition, where he will be needed to add to Class 8's honor wall.

Chen Zhou reviewed the competition content for one lesson and studied the system for another lesson in the third lesson.

I haven't paid much attention to the system during the few days of holiday, and I have a lot of tasks left undone.

He first checked his personal panel:
Name: Chen Zhou

Text: 40

"Martial Arts: 40"

"Charm: 40"

"Imperial Might: 550"

「技能:玩梗lv5、开车lv4、毒舌lv4、火影格斗lv3、篮球lv3、数学lv3……」

Special Effects: Golden Legend, Speed ​​is of the Essence, Keen Insight, Hardening

There are still 550 points of Imperial Prestige.

If we want to upgrade our skills later, this amount of imperial might is clearly not enough.

We need to seize the opportunity to gain some imperial prestige.

Chen Zhou shifted his gaze to the system tasks; he currently had two sets of tasks on hand.

One is the dismantling of the Xia Mi Alliance announced by the system a few days ago:

[The Holy Maiden of the Demonic Cult conspires with Consort Jiang to manipulate the harem. How can such behavior be tolerated on the Emperor's sleeping throne?]

We humbly beseech Your Majesty to swiftly dismantle the Xia Mi Alliance and restore order to the harem!

[Reward: 1000 Imperial Prestige]

The other is a set of chain tasks:
[Your Majesty has reigned for a long time. Although you were diligent in governing the country in the past, you seem to have become lax recently. If this continues, the court will fall into disarray, and how can we talk about revitalizing the country?]

[Your Majesty, please carry on the late Emperor's legacy, diligently serve the country, and accomplish the following tasks:]

【Part 1: My First Experiencing Farming】

The people are the foundation of the state, and agriculture is the lifeblood of the people. If agriculture and sericulture are valued and taxes are reduced, then the whole world will be at peace, and the land will be at peace. We urge Your Majesty to set an example by personally engaging in farming.

[II. Incognito Visit:]

[Your Majesty has reigned for a long time, yet you have never experienced the hardships of the people. How could you possibly know the dire straits they suffer? We implore Your Majesty to travel incognito and personally investigate the people's plight.]

(Task 2 has been completed)
III. Training the New Army:

The army is the bulwark of the nation. If a powerful force can be trained, external threats can be defended and internal troubles can be quelled. I urge Your Majesty to quickly train a new army to protect the Great Chen!

【mission rewards:】

【1.2000 Imperial Might】

【2. Random Items】

Of the three chain tasks, the second one, the undercover mission, is shown as completed.

Chen Zhou stroked his chin, lost in memories.

Traveling incognito to personally investigate the people's conditions probably meant sending him to crowded places.

Whether it was going to the comic convention with Jingdezhen in Jiangxia District a few days ago, or going with Bai Qianqian yesterday.

They should all be considered as traveling incognito.

Chen Zhou's forehead was covered in sweat.

Unexpectedly, this seemingly difficult task was completed by sheer luck.

His gaze shifted to the other tasks.

The dismantling of the Xia Mi Alliance needs no further discussion at this time; it requires careful planning.

The other two chain missions are experiencing farming firsthand and training a new army.

Having personally experienced farming, he had a general idea, but what on earth was this about training a new army? A look of confusion appeared on Chen Zhou's face.

……

As soon as the bell rang, Chen Zhou slipped out of the classroom.

He walked around to the lawn on the side of the teaching building, squatted down and examined the weeds covering the ground.

Clover mixed with dandelions and some foxtail grass whose names I don't know, it really grew a bit wildly.

"Farming, farming, even weeding should count, right?"

He muttered to himself as he rolled up his sleeves, grabbed the base of a long-stemmed weed, and pulled it up by the roots with a little force, the roots still covered in damp soil.

The sun was shining warmly, and he plucked half a bunch of berries in no time, his forehead beaded with sweat.

Just as I was engrossed in struggling with a field of dandelions, I heard a familiar cough behind me.

"Chen Zhou, what are you doing?"

Chen Zhou turned around and saw the grade director, Ke Linhai, standing behind him with his hands behind his back, staring at the weeds in his hand.

His heart skipped a beat, but he quickly composed himself and held up his spoils:

"Director Ke, look, there are too many weeds on this lawn. It's messy and affects the school's appearance. I'll pull out a few during break."

Upon hearing this, Ke Linhai paused for a moment, then took two steps forward.

He looked at the small pile of weeds on the ground, then at Chen Zhou's muddy fingertips, and his eyes behind his glasses lit up.

"Good boy!"

He suddenly patted Chen Zhou on the shoulder, quite forcefully:
"There aren't many students like you these days who have such a strong sense of ownership! It's commendable that you know how to protect the school environment!"

Chen Zhou was a little embarrassed by the praise and scratched his head:

"Of course, the school is our second home."

"well said!"

Ke Linhai became increasingly agitated as he spoke, pacing back and forth along the lawn with his hands behind his back.
"If everyone in our school treated the campus like your own home, we could easily win the title of 'Most Beautiful Campus,' or even become a provincial-level civilized unit!"

After saying that, he patted Chen Zhou on the shoulder and left with steady steps.

Watching Director Ke's figure disappear around the corner of the teaching building, Chen Zhou breathed a sigh of relief and squatted back down on the lawn.

He quickened his pace, targeting only the thickest, most robust weeds.

Just as he was pulling out a particularly stubborn clump of goosegrass, a system notification suddenly sounded in his mind:
[Ding—Congratulations, Your Majesty, on completing the "Experience Farming" mission!]

Food is the paramount necessity of the people. Your Majesty's personal involvement and understanding of the hardships of farming are truly a blessing for all!

Chen Zhou straightened up, shook his sore and numb wrists, and looked at the clean lawn that had been cleared, and couldn't help but smile.

He threw the weeds into the trash can, then went to the toilet to wash his hands before returning to the classroom.

As soon as he entered the classroom, he saw Shen Enxi follow him in and announce an urgent notice:

"I just received a notice from the grade head that there are too many weeds on the lawn near the teaching building. During the lunch break, the whole grade will go downstairs to pull weeds."

As soon as he finished speaking, the whole class was as if they had lost their parents.

"Dude, it's not even September yet! Making people pull weeds in the middle of the day is going to kill us!"

"Exactly, that's fucking stupid!"

"Let the boys go. Won't we girls get heatstroke if we go?"

"...I won't say a word until Martin Luther King Jr. is replaced with Barbie Krugman."

"..."

Upon hearing that the weeding notice came from the head of the grade, Chen Zhou couldn't help but wonder.

Oh no, it seems I've done something wrong.

He looked around, and his heart skipped a beat.

The fact that Ke Linhai caused all this trouble because of him must not be known to others.

Otherwise, he would be wanted by the entire grade.

Holy crap, this is just too hilarious.

I was just being polite with you, and you actually believed me?

At this moment, Chen Zhou was utterly speechless.

But just then, the grade's loudspeaker suddenly blared, and Ke Linhai's cheerful voice rang out:

"Hello, senior students. I am Ke Linhai, the grade director. Here I would like to share a touching event that I witnessed."

"Just now during the break between the third and fourth periods, I saw a student pulling weeds on the lawn below the teaching building."

"I was immediately puzzled. Why was this student weeding all by himself? So I went up to ask him, and the answer I received was touching..."

Hearing the words coming from the radio, everyone understood the cause and effect of the weeding incident, and was immediately filled with righteous indignation:

"Damn it, don't let me find out who this Strong guy is!"

"So you think you're the only one who's going to stand out? So you think you're the only one who loves pulling weeds? Let me find out who you are, and I'll make you pull weeds every single day!"

"Pull the weeds, pull the weeds, ...!"

"..."

Sensing the overwhelming anger around him, Chen Zhou realized something was wrong and slowly moved towards the back door.

But at that moment, Colin Hai's voice paused on the radio, then he raised his tone and said:

"The classmate who moved me is none other than Chen Zhou from Class 8 of Senior Three, who performed a heroic act last time!"

"Let us applaud his inspiring spirit of dedication!"

Before the announcement had even finished, the entire class turned around and stared intently at Chen Zhou, who had just moved to the back doorway.

Upon witnessing this horrifying scene, Chen Zhou wished he had eight more legs to run downstairs.

Damn, what kind of horror movie is this?

Crowds poured out from both the front and back doors:

"Go out the front door and block Chen Zhou!"

"We can't let him leave the school alive!"

"Class 8 of Senior Three, hand over Chen Zhou, or we'll raze your class to the ground today!"

"..."

With only a few minutes left before class, in addition to Class 8 of Senior Three, other classes also joined in the operation to surround Chen Zhou.

Fortunately, there are passageways on both the east and west sides of the teaching building, otherwise Chen Zhou would have been completely blocked today.

However, the larger number of people behind them gradually closed the distance.

Left with no other option, Chen Zhou had to access the system:

"Speed ​​is of the essence in war, open fire!!"

In an instant, the speed, which already had 40 points of martial prowess, increased by another 30%.

In an instant, Chen Zhou felt a gust of wind rush through his legs, and the soles of his shoes left afterimages as they scraped against the terrazzo floor.

In the corridor, the previously noisy crowd seemed to be split apart by an invisible hand, with gasps of surprise rising and falling:

"Holy crap, who is this? Usain Bolt reincarnated?"

"Afterimage! There really is an afterimage!"

The girl by the window had just leaned half her body out for some fresh air when she saw a figure brush past her nose, the wisps of hair on her forehead being whipped up by the airflow.

Chen Zhou grabbed the corridor handrail with his left hand for leverage and turned, running all the way down to the teaching building.

At this moment, the group of people who were originally planning to chase after Chen Zhou all stopped and stared blankly at his back.

At that moment, they suddenly understood the true meaning of being "out of reach".

In the corridor of the teaching building, many people watched Chen Zhou's speeding figure with their mouths agape.

Someone couldn't help but say:

"Wow, he runs so fast! Even Su Bingtian couldn't be as fast as him!"

"Not going to the Olympics? That would be an outrage!"

"..."

Chen Zhou ran for a while before stopping, panting. Looking at the pursuers disappearing behind him, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

But just then, the sound of a bicycle falling over came from behind.

Chen Zhou slowly looked up and saw Zhang Jilong posing as if holding a bicycle, staring at him blankly.

But the bicycle had already fallen to its side. (End of Chapter)
