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

Chapter 37 A product produced in three seconds is inferior.
As it turned out, Chen Zhou was overthinking things.

Bai Qianqian did send a picture of breasts, but this "breasts" was not the same as the "breasts" in the picture.

Just one...

Silver shaded cats forced to operate.

Then, amidst Chen Zhou's silence, Bai Qianqian sent a message:
"How about it, aren't my boobs cute?"

"So cute, so adorable."

Wiping non-existent sweat from his forehead, Chen Zhou wondered if he should give Bai Qianqian some proper education on internet slang.

This situation is somewhat dangerous.

Seemingly noticing that Chen Zhou hadn't replied for a while, Bai Qianqian sent another message:
Good luck on your exam tomorrow!

"Okay, you too."

"..."

Lying in bed, Bai Qianqian was racking her brains trying to figure out how to start a conversation when she saw Chen Zhou's simple reply. Then the knocking on the door started again.
"Qianqian, it's time. Give me your phone."

"Oh... Goodnight, Mom."

Just like yesterday, Bai Qianqian handed her phone to her mother, obediently lay back in bed, and said goodnight to the world.

Seeing that Bai Qianqian wasn't replying to the message, Chen Zhou shook his head, opened his phone's notes, and updated his "100-Day Foundation Building" plan:
Don't be a prisoner of dopamine.

Believers in endorphins only.

100-Day Foundation Building: 31/100.

Looking at the Foundation Building Plan, Chen Zhou felt a slight regret for his impulsiveness just now.

That was close, I almost messed up.

At that moment, it was as if two little people were arguing in his mind.

The little white man said:
"Lust is a poison that corrodes the bones. If a dignified man indulges in lewdness, he demeans himself into slavery and willingly degenerates."

Another little black man said:

"If I don't quit, I'm degenerate, I'm worthless!"

The little white man continued:
"That's ridiculous. You can choose not to quit today, you can choose not to quit tomorrow, and you can continue to masturbate the day after tomorrow, but if you do that, you'll be a goblin for life! Your classmates will laugh at you, your crush will despise you, do you want to be looked down upon for the rest of your life?"

The little black man chuckled:
"Is there any necessary connection between the two? Dr. Yang said that what you're saying is feudal superstition. We should believe in science. Applying glue in moderation is good for your health."

"..."

After wiping the sweat from his forehead, Chen Zhou felt like he was about to be persuaded by the little black man.

Why does it make more and more sense the more I listen to it?

Quickly trying to stop himself from thinking about these lewd things, Chen Zhou took a deep breath, opened the system, and checked the unfinished tasks at hand:
[Task to be completed 1:]

[The grand examination is approaching, a matter of vital importance to the nation. We beseech Your Majesty to lead your ministers in praying to Heaven to select virtuous and capable individuals to bless the Great Chen Dynasty!]

[Reward: 200 Imperial Prestige]

[Task Two to be Completed:]

[Your Majesty, please subdue the evil cult's holy maiden who is wreaking havoc on the Great Chen Dynasty, and restore peace and order to our land.]

[Reward: Imperial Prestige +1000]

[Task 3 to be completed:]

[The academy examinations are for selecting talented individuals. Your Majesty will take them alongside the students. I hope Your Majesty will prepare diligently and not fail to uphold the dignity of the Son of Heaven.]

[Task requirement: Rank among the top ten in the class]

[Task Reward: Imperial Prestige +500]

Chen Zhou stroked his chin, deep in thought.

After this period of improvement, I should have no problem being in the top ten of the class, and the big reward for Task Three is already in my grasp.

As for the second task, subduing the Holy Maiden of the Demonic Cult, there are still few clues, so it can only be put aside.

As for Task One...

"Leading the court officials to pray to Heaven? Is it so I'm to hold a sacrificial ceremony to Heaven tomorrow morning? That's interesting."

To perform a sacrificial ceremony to Heaven, offerings and eulogies are required.

Offerings are easy to discuss, but the words of praise are another matter.

Come out, little elf!
deepseek!

Chen Zhou opened the software and entered the command:
"With the imperial examinations approaching, I am the Emperor of the Great Chen Dynasty. I will lead my officials in a ceremony to offer sacrifices to Heaven. Please help me write a sacrificial text in classical Chinese."

Then the text on the screen flowed out like water, and Chen Zhou quickly wrote it down.

Yes, it's very well written.

This is now my work.

The thought of reading this eulogy aloud on the spot tomorrow filled Chen Zhou with a sense of amusement.

It's getting late, time for bed. Nothing eventful happened that night. At exactly six o'clock, my phone alarm went off.

"If one day I fall in love with your wife, and if your wife falls in love with me too, brother, please don't cry. I will definitely not let her suffer."

Listening to this catchy NTR anthem, Chen Zhou opened his eyes in a daze.

He looked down and sighed.

Which scrap collector can come and take our recyclables?
The steel bars were sold cheaply.

I got up, washed up, and ate breakfast as usual.

As soon as I pushed open the door, I was greeted by Jiang Xia's energetic smiling face:
"Morning!"

"morning."

Chen Zhou yawned repeatedly.

Looking at Chen Zhou's haggard appearance, Jiang Xia wondered if he had gone to sell heroin last night.

"Why do you look so listless? You have an exam today."

It seems Jiang Xia is unaware of the big news on the confession wall last night. Chen Zhou smiled lazily and said:

"I can't help it, I'm used to staying up late."

Jiang Xia laughed and joked:
"It's one thing to have a holiday, but you can't have this kind of schedule during the school year. Sleeping at 1 a.m. and waking up at 6 a.m., even the King of Hell would praise your good health."

Chen Zhou received Xiao Jiang's concern and then said that if he stayed up all night again, he would acknowledge her as his father.

Jiang Xia hadn't quite grasped what was happening yet, and was still praising him with a grin:
"Well, you're quite determined... wait, what do you mean by 'recognize me as your father,' or 'recognize me as your father'?"

Seeing the question mark on Jiang Xia's face and the impending barrage of attacks, Chen Zhou quickly initiated the Dunkirk evacuation.

Jiang Xia clenched his fists and chased after Chen Zhou, shouting through gritted teeth:
"You're way too anthropomorphic!"

It's a long-standing tradition at No. 2 Middle School to have six exams in one day.

The exam started at 7:30 in the morning and continued until the end of evening self-study. This kind of exam is reminiscent of the symbolic meaning of the row of photinia flowers at the school gate:
Yue!

Such a tight schedule naturally left no time for early morning reading.

Chen Zhou, carrying a bag of xiaolongbao (soup dumplings) and Weiwei soy milk, approached Li Bin and Zhou Xinglun, cleared his throat, and said:
"Should we go and pray to Confucius for good luck?"

Li Bin and Zhou Xinglun exchanged a glance, and couldn't help but admire Chen Zhou's composure.

After yesterday's epic battle on the confession wall, I still have the mind to worship Confucius today.

This heart, it's incredible!

Many schools place a statue of Confucius in the center of their campus, and No. 2 Middle School is no exception.

Before exams, many students bring fruit and snacks to worship the statue of Confucius, praying for good luck on their exams.

Sometimes when Chen Zhou didn't have money for food, he would choose to take some offerings to fill his stomach.

Although it wasn't very respectable.

But can something done by a scholar be considered stealing?

Li Bin scratched his head and grinned:
"Sure, let's try anything, maybe praying will actually help me get a good score. I'll be grateful if I can get over 400."

Seeing that Li Bin had agreed, Zhou Xinglun had no objection.

As Li Bin walked out of the teaching building, he joked:
"Elbow, your verbal skills are truly remarkable. After this, you're going to become a celebrity at No. 2 Middle School."

Zhou Xinglun sighed and patted Chen Zhou on the shoulder, saying:
"Don't be discouraged. Being famous even when you're not famous is still fame. Look at those big stars, they even have to pay to get attention."

Li Bin also chimed in:

"Yes, look at Mr. Wang, he always makes the headlines because of his younger brother moving."

Chen Zhou knew the two were trying to comfort him, so he waved his hand, put his hands behind his back, and said:
"There's no way around it; anything produced in three seconds is inferior."

Stephen Chow exclaimed "Holy crap!"
"This meme carries a slightly offensive connotation."

Chen Zhou chuckled. Although he didn't know who posted the message on the confession wall, he was sure it was related to Yu Xinyan and her animal friends.

Excuse me.

I'm the kind of person who holds grudges.

But the kind of thing where wiping out an entire family requires using the human radar method to eliminate potential threats.

Chen Zhou chuckled and stroked his chin:

"Who could it be?"
