Chapter 310: 315、Rhythm of Harvest (Part 2)
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
Everyone stood silently on the field, solemn . Night had fallen .
Outside the school was Jiudu Road, the main thoroughfare of Luo Cheng . Most people had just ended work and were on their way home . Perhaps someone at home had already prepared dinner and were waiting for their return .
Over in school, a group of new energy rejuvenation age practitioners were silent as they stared at the flag raising platform .
Luo Cheng Foreign Language School had begun renovation this summer vacation . Originally, steel railings could allow people inside and out to gaze at one another, but the building had now been totally walled, and there were even wire netting at the top of the walls .
The school no longer felt like one . Netizens of Luo Cheng joked that this was the first student prison of their city .
Upon closer look, it did seem so .
However, the students of Daoyuan class thought that it should be so . They were not the least concerned about why the Heavenly Network was doing this .
During the summer break, everyone went out to meet up with their high school friends . During the gatherings, they would bring up their status as Daoyuan class students . All the old schoolmates could only be envious . Some of the girls who used to not pay them any attention were now taking more notice of them out of curiosity .
This was a sense of honour and belonging . In the future, these sense of honour and belonging could be giving them just that one more burst of energy when they shed blood and sacrifice their lives .
Li Yixiao went up to the podium, his hand clutching a crumpled script…
“Good evening everyone . We asked all of you to return to school today because there are three major announcements to be made . “
Everyone felt puzzled . Many of them were carrying bags filled with daily necessities, power banks, clothes and things like that . Actually, they were thinking the same as Lu Shu, that they would be entering a remains tonight .

It turned out that they were probably wrong .
However, the regimentation now disallowed them from talking to one another, and hence, there were no buzzing of frenzied discussion unlike in the past .
Li Yixiao took a satisfied look at everyone and continued, “First of all, I must reiterate discipline . Recently, three cases fighting Daoyuan class students had been transferred to the Heavenly Network . Yes, I can understand all of you . Students fighting, isn’t this common?”
“However, what I want to say is, it isn’t common . All of you now hold military ranks and your calling is to protect our homeland, not use the power you gained to hurt others . After today, if any such matters arise again, the culprit will be suspended and observed . For repeat offenders, or if the case is very serious, the person will see his or her cultivation technique sealed and never to be employed .
Lu Shu nodded . They were indeed beginning to gradually place greater emphasis on discipline . A combat-fit military group must have great discipline . In the future, they may even need to be bound by discipline in various aspects .
However, this was very normal . The Daoyuan class students of Luo Cheng were now all very powerful . It was not impossible for them to kill someone with just a punch .
“Secondly, before the National College Exams next year, there will be seven schools for practitioners built in the country .
This issue was finally being announced . All the students present were shocked . Why must practitioners still take cultural courses? Isn’t this bullshit?Most people had not been studying for a long time, they were all focused on practicing .
To tell the truth, Jiang Shuyi had long been telling Lu Shu the importance of studying . Lu Shu was not stressed at all . As a high-achiever, he had to maintain the dignity of one .
He was now not only self-studying and making up for physics and chemistry classes, but was also preparing to pick up Japanese language, and try his best to get a good hang of it within three months .

Is study useful? Lu Shu believed yes .
Taking his Awakening element of water for example . Is it possible to turn water into ice? The answer is yes . Some people feel that snow and ice Awakening can cause greater damage, but Lu Shu believed that water element Awakening has a greater value of existence that ice and snow, closer to source .
Just from what basic knowledge he knew about chemistry, water turns into ice because the distance between molecules increases . Hence, water is denser than ice . This is also why ice floats on water . Water is special . When water becomes ice, there is a type of inter-molecular force . Hydrogen bond increases and from that forms tetrahedral structures .
However, Lu Shu’s knowledge was still pretty rudimentary and he was therefore unclear if he could switch between the structures of ice and water directly in the future . At least for now, he still did not possess the power to do so .
Still have to continue learning… he missed out too much on physics and chemistry in the past .
At this moment, Li Yixiao suddenly continued, “Thirdly, congratulations to our Luo Cheng Daoyuan class for coming up with the first Class C student!”
Everyone was shocked upon hearing this, while Xi Fei and the others seemed to already know about this .
What was the cultivation level for everyone now? In all of Luo Cheng’s Daoyuan class, there were only two Class Ds, Cao Qingci and Jiang Shuyi . Therefore, Class D was a watershed mark for everyone and whoever could attain it first would prove their prowess .
And all of a sudden, out popped a Class C!
Lu Shu was surprised to know that despite Li Yixiao not mentioning any name, all the thousand over students were now essentially sending him their distress points .
Even though these distress points were intermittent and not of as high a frequency as from the animals in the remains, Lu Shu counted and realised that if it could maintain for half an hour, his third star would be shining soon…
If all plays out well, maybe even the points for his fourth star would be half completed . Of course, he could not be sure, especially when each new star would require points in the ten thousands .
For every new star lighted up, Lu Shu could maintain slightly longer . Even though there were no qualitative change, even if it felt weird saying it this way, perseverance is still an important trait in combat . If not for Lu Shu’s help, Chen Baili may really be killed by people dragging their feet .
At this moment, everyone could no longer stand the suspense and turned their gaze Cao Qingci in the formation . In everyone’s mind, if there was a person achieving Class C, it must be him .
However, they realised that Cao Qingci was furrowing his brows, and it seemed like a sliver of doubt was hidden within his cold demeanour .
Is it not Cao Qingci? Then who is it?
Li Yixiao said, “Lu Shu, please come up to the podium . “
What the heck!
Everyone was utterly shocked . They were only just saying that he was dabbling in improper practices and being a good-for-nothing . He was all of a sudden a Class C master they must all look up to?!
What did Class C mean? In the entire Yuzhou, there seemed to be only nine including Zhong Yutang?! And this was only after people were rewarded for their merits in the Beimang remains . The number had been fewer before that!
Only nine out of a population of 3 hundred million, what does that mean?
“From Liu Li’s distress…”
“From…”
Actually, when Lu Shu stepped out, students who had never held any negative views of him was still in the majority . Therefore, distress points reaped was not as much as he had imagined . Lu Shu felt disappointed about this…
Seems like there is no more hope for the fourth star…

Flashback: Siren Song
The year is 1969. Yancy Lazarus—bluesman, gambler, future world-class mage and fix-it man—is just a dumb, unlucky kid serving with the 3rd Battalion 3rd Marines in Vietnam.With just a few weeks left to go until Yancy gets shipped back to the States, he’s just trying to keep his head down and avoid a body bag—no mean feat in Nam. But when his squad is tasked with conducting a routine patrol deep in enemy territory, everything goes to nine kinds of hell, and he quickly sees his chances at survival slipping away.When the radio operators start to pick up some funky, dirty ol’ blues all the way out in the backcountry, it’s a nice change of pace. At least until the men in Yancy’s squad start losing their minds, turning on each other with murderous intent as the music works its deadly power within them. Convinced it’s some kind of new psychological warfare initiative, the squad leader forces the men to push deeper and deeper into the Vietnamese jungle, obsessed with locating the music’s source. What they find, however, isn’t some new technology, but an ancient spirit awoken by the terrible war. Even worse, the music is changing Yancy too, awakening something buried inside of him. Only one thing is certain, nothing is ever going to be the same.See how it all began … *** PRAISE FOR SIREN SONG:Hunter's writing is as low-down, gritty, and insidious as the blues Yancy Lazarus loves. Just like the mysterious music drifting through the jungle toward Yancy's squad, Siren Song will get under your skin and sink its hooks into your mind. —eden Hudson, Author of Halo Bound (the Redneck Apocalypse series) *** Hey everyone, this is James Hunter. This story isn't a full length novel--its a novella length work (25K words), and is part of my Yancy Lazarus series. Its already free on Amazon, so I thought I'd post chapters here for the good folks of Royal Road. If you don't want to wait for updates or would prefer to read it on Kindle, you can pick it up for free here: https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B01066TLC0

A Generic Dungeon Core Story
When one falls… what happens? Do they just disappear into an endless abyss? Do they got to a final resting place to lay forever? Do they get to look down proudly upon the world from the clouds or look up in regret as they are burned and tortured? One man… person found out the hard way as he fell into a dark abyss after having surely died only to found himself awake again with most of his memories and knowledge blocked of as he was reincarnated into a 10ft cube as a small glowing sky blue orb…. This is my first actual foray to the world of webnovels as I’ve never wrote any stories before… *cough cough * edgy horny filled teenage fanfics do not count whatsoever *cough cough*. I am very new to the world of novels and I am not a native English speaker so expect a lot of grammar mistakes. The story will update on weekends on Saturday or whenever I feel like uploading as I do not have much free time and this is only a novel I write to improve my writing skills. What can you expect from the story? - Dungeons? Of course, this is the main theme of the story. - Multiple leads? Yes, there will be multiple perspectives from many different characters with at least 4 main characters. - Gamelit? The world is ruled by a system… that does absolutely nothing other than a way to view your stats and progression. - Murder hole? No, the lead character has a challenging yet fair view on how dungeons should operate, don’t get me wrong as he will still kill people if they are evil, careless or overestimate their abilities but don’t expect too much death as I feel that most adventurers would be smart enough to know their abilities especially when they have to do it themselves instead on relying on skills or the system. - Cultivation? No, the ability to gain power from sitting still and breathing never made any sense to me and it will be completely broken if the MC gets their hands on it so… no. - Non-human MC? Yes, they are a dungeon after all and yes, dungeons do get avatars but it is a specialized procedure that many choose not to do. Also, if the dungeon gets an avatar, no he will not be some wish giving demigod or whatever. - Magic? Yes, but it is very limited and down to the ground... from my notes... which means nothing - Art? Yes, I’m a hobbyist-artists so expect some art sketches here and there… I am poor so I do not have line art pens or tablets or adobe photoshop… also no scanners so… pictures of pencil-sketches it is, no coloring though since I am terrible at coloring. - Comedy? Yes, if you can call my bad attempts at humor comedy. - Likeable characters? Hopefully… especially since I accidentally made like... 60 characters … how I made 6 originals into 60?… I have no idea whatsoever… - Adventurers/invaders/delvers/etc…? Yes! My favorite part about dungeon core novels are when delvers delve into the dungeon and reading how they react, I will definitely flesh out the delvers and show how they operate more than usual hopefully. Hopefully you like the story, I will not have a patreon or paypal or whatever mostly because I’m under 18, thanks for at least reading this far and I hope that my writing is at least passable and you enjoy the story… if not then at least I got some writing practice in English.

The Systems of the Multiverse - A Guide for the Multiversal Traveler
The Systems of the Multiverse have their issues. I, an observer from outside the multiverse have made it into my mission to tell you, the multiversal traveler about those issues and dangers. This is a relatively low effort NaNoWriMo and Writhathon project. I want to test myself if I can manage 55k words in a month, likely updating every single day until the end. This story is told in the form of an in universe book. Well, I say story... While this definetly won't be great, I still hope it will be enjoyable. I do my best to avoid grammar mistakes and spelling issues, but won't promise anything. Corrections are welcome, this is also an excercise to improve my writing from a technical standpoint. Not from a worldbuilding and character standpoint however, for that you need time. Oh, the keyboards (and computers) that the observer destroys are not real and only exists in story to have an excuse to easily end this story at the end of NaNoWriMo. I also personally like reading LitRPG stories, so this isn't meant to hate them. It might come over that way, but many of those issues are simply fun to think about: what would really happen if the world is so, seen through a lease of negativity :-) [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
