Chapter 19: Taking up the Farmer Profession 1

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The last class in the afternoon was Teacher Wang Jianjia’s English class.

After the bell rang, the classroom instantly became noisy because it was the holidays.

Wang Jianjia put down the test paper regretfully and said loudly, “Students, please be quiet. I have something important to announce.”

“After I’m done, you can leave immediately!”

“If you keep making trouble, I’ll keep waiting until you quieten down!”

Wang Jianjia’s words were very powerful. After she finished speaking, the noisy classroom immediately went silent.

“Next Monday is the second provincial joint mock exam! It’s especially important. Don’t forget to revise your homework when you get home…”

“The results of this provincial joint examination will be announced online. If your results are too bad, you will be mocked by the third-year students in the province.”

“Furthermore, the school has implemented a new policy to use the results of this mock exam as the basis for further class segregation!” Wang Jianjia said very seriously.

“Students ranked below the 100th in the entire grade will form a new class called the Progressive Class.”

This was because the school felt that the students ranked in the bottom 100 of the cohort were basically hopeless. If they were scattered in different classes, they would even affect the learning of the classes.

The school might as well put these lousy students together, in any case, they were already at rock bottom.

As soon as Wang Jianjia finished, everyone in class looked at Li Chengqian with gloat and pity in their eyes.

They don’t know about the other students but judging from Li Chengqian’s results from the previous few tests, he was definitely in the bottom 100 of the grade.

In other words, after the exam results are released next week, Li Chengqian would be kicked out of Grade 12 Class 5.

Jian Qingli smiled at Li Chengqian and whispered, “Li Chengqian, I think the school is targeting you.”

Li Chengqian smiled and didn’t respond.

In his previous life, he had indeed been sent to the Progressive class.

But it was impossible this time round!

That was because as long as the questions are within the syllabus, he would be able to score full marks for any test paper!

Liu Daqiang couldn’t hold back the smile on his face. If Teacher Wang Jianjia wasn’t still in the classroom, he would definitely have laughed out loud.

These few days, he discovered that Li Chengqian was indeed listening attentively in class.

However, it had only been three days, how much could Li Chengqian improve?

The most he could do was to score 30 more marks.

He was still worried that if Li Chengqian continued to be so serious,he might really do better at the university entrance examination.

After listening to what Teacher Wang Jianjia said, he was no longer worried.

Because Li Chengqian would definitely be assigned to the Progressive class.

How could a good teacher be assigned to the Progressive class? The teacher assigned to the Progressive class would be someone who had just joined the profession and wouldn’t have much teaching experience.

Without good teaching resources, it was impossible for Li Chengqian to improve in such a short period of time.

“Two days ago, Li Chengqian even asked me to wait and see his exam results…”

“This is great!”

“I’m really waiting to see your results this time. Then, I’ll wait to see you get kicked out of Grade 12 Class 5.”

The other students looked at Li Chengqian with pity before retracting their gazes.

“That’s it. School’s over!” In an instant, most people rushed out of the classroom.

“Li Chengqian, come with me. I want to talk to you alone.” Wang Jianjia didn’t leave, but waved at Li Chengqian.

She also felt that the school’s policies were unfair to students like Li Chengqian.

However, she was a nobody and couldn’t change the school’s decision.

She had been observing Li Chengqian’s behavior the past few days.

Li Chengqian listened especially attentively in every lesson. There was a huge change in his learning attitude from before. She could clearly see that Li Chengqian had really changed.

Wang Jianjia would never give up on any student who was willing to learn.

It would be a real pity if Li Chengqian really gave up on studying because of this incident.

“Teacher must have been worried that Li Chengqian would be provoked, so she asked him to stay back so that she could give him a prep talk.” Liu Daqiang was still packing his bag.

“Poor thing, he is about to be chased to another class. How pitiful.” Although Liu Daqiang said this, his beaming face clearly indicated that he was in a great mood.

In Wang Jianjia’s office.

“Li Chengqian, I will continue to give feedback to the school about the new segregation policy and try to keep you in our class.”

“However, the chances are not high.”

“But I can promise you that even if you enter the Progressive class, you can come to me if you have any problems.” Wang Jianjia said seriously.

A trace of gratitude flashed in Li Chengqian’s eyes. Then, he said calmly, “Teacher, thank you for your concern.”

“However, I’m confident that I can stay in Grade 12 Class 5!”

Li Chengqian wasn’t planning to lie low in this exam!

He wanted to score full marks!

Then, he would bring the results home and show them to his parents!

He wanted his parents to stop worrying about his results and stop being embarrassed in front of their colleagues.

He wanted his parents to be able to proudly tell others that when his son scored full marks in the second provincial mock exams!

“En, I have faith in you, but don’t be too optimistic. You also have to prepare for the worst outcome. You may go now.” Wang Jianjia looked at Li Chengqian’s confident appearance and couldn’t bear to dampen his spirits, so she could only frown and remind him.

In the last exam, Li Chengqian’s ranking in Tianyi High School was 10th from the bottom.

Her thoughts were the same as Liu Daqiang’s. Li Chengqian had indeed been very focused these few days, but how much could he improve just by concentrating for a few short days?

“Yes, Teacher!” Li Chengqian replied and quickly returned to the classroom.

He could naturally tell that Teacher Wang Jianjia didn’t believe him, but he didn’t explain because there was no need to do so.

After the exam results are released next week, Wang Jianjia would know why he, Li Chengqian, was so confident.

“Open the personal interface.” When he returned to the classroom, Li Chengqian silently chanted in his heart while packing his bag.

“Purchase a Profession Slot!” Without thinking, Li Chengqian directly opened the Profession Mall.

[You have consumed 10,000 experience value points. You have obtained a new Profession Slot. You have 7,948 experience value points remaining in the Experience Pool.]

Li Chengqian switched to the Profession Certificate purchase interface and bought the Profession Certificate for the Farmer profession without hesitation.

[You have consumed 5,000 experience value points. You have obtained the Profession Certificate for the Farmer profession. You have 2,948 experience value points remaining in the Experience Pool.]

A new page appeared in front of Li Chengqian.

[Profession Certificate: Farmer]

[Job Requirement 1: You need a hoe (Incomplete)]

[Job Requirement 2: You need a unit of arable land (Incomplete)]

These two requirements were exactly the same in the Master of All Professions game that Li Chengqian played in his previous life.

He could purchase a hoe from a hardware store on his way home.

As for land, there were many overgrown grasslands below his block. According to the rules of the Master of All Professions game, a one square meter piece of land was considered a unit of land.

“All set!” Li Chengqian walked out of the classroom with a face full of smiles.
