Monster Logger - Chapter 32

Chapter 32 The Eve of the College Entrance Examination

From two pieces of Nether Fish a day to three pieces a day, Qin Ming felt that his body was becoming stronger and stronger. There were obvious changes almost every day.

This change happened mostly inside his body. In terms of appearance, he had gained some muscles, and his body looked much more solid.

He was also growing taller. Qin Ming was not short to begin with, but now he looked even taller and more balanced.

Even his entire temperament had changed slightly.

In fact, not only did Qin Ming discover these changes in himself, but his classmates also more or less noticed his difference.

To outsiders, Qin Ming’s explanation was that he was still growing. It was normal for him to change.

On this day, in the gymnasium of No. 1 High School.

A heavy sandbag was lying quietly on the ground. There was a hole on one side, and fine black and yellow sand was scattered all over the floor.

Qin Ming stood beside the sandbag with an innocent expression. The students in the class were looking at him with dumbfounded expressions.

Today, Zhang Yu brought the students who were preparing for the Martial Arts Academy test to the school gymnasium for their daily exercise class.

Unexpectedly, Qin Ming kicked a sandbag.

The explosive power made Zhang Yu and the other students in the class confused.

No matter how high their Qi Sea was now, they were still in a closed state and had not cultivated. They were still ordinary people, including Ma Zhiwen.

And Qin Ming’s kick just now was not something an ordinary high school student could do.

“Qin Ming, how… did you do it!” Zhang Yu held it in for a long time before saying this.

“Uh, Teacher, perhaps the quality of this sandbag isn’t too good. No matter what, I can’t break it with a kick, right?” Qin Ming explained.

He was actually shocked himself. He had wanted to test his current strength, but he did not expect the sandbag to fly away with a single kick.

“Yes, these sandbags have indeed been used for several years. However, the strength of your kick just now did seem very strong. You must have exercised a lot recently.” Zhang Yu also felt that there was something wrong with the sandbag itself, but the power of Qin Ming’s kick was not small either.

“After all, the college entrance examination is coming soon. I have to force myself.” Qin Ming added to what Zhang Yu said.

However, he felt that if he had an intact sandbag, he might still be able to kick it away.

After all, his Nether Fish was not for nothing.

“I say, your kick just now was too cool, and you seemed to have jumped very high.” Ma Zhiwen had observed Qin Ming and walked to his side.

“Hehe, I keep a low profile. I’ve hidden my skills for many years and don’t want to expose them at this time,” Qin Ming said pretentiously, his tone as low as a hermit.

“Come on.” Ma Zhiwen couldn’t help but complain about Qin Ming’s clumsy acting skills.

The two of them argued. After that, Qin Ming consciously controlled the strength of his punches and kicks. He didn’t want to kick the sandbag again. After all, he didn’t have that much money to compensate the school.

Before school ended, they returned to the classroom.

“Students, the final college entrance examination is the day after tomorrow. I know that many students have been working very hard during this period, but in the end, we still have to maintain our best state for this college entrance examination.

School is closed tomorrow. Everyone, have a good day off. All the best the day after tomorrow.” Zhang Yu looked at the students and kept encouraging them.

“Alright, Teacher. Don’t worry!”

“God, bless me, you must let me get closer to the Department of Literature in Shanze Academy.”

“I feel like the 3,000 yuan was wasted…”

The students had different emotions about this college entrance examination. Some were uneasy, while others were confident.

Qin Ming had tested his two potential values, so he was confident and didn’t panic.

At least, when he paid the application fee to the Martial Arts Academy a few days ago, he was not too reluctant.

The day before paying this fee, he had informed his parents.

After all, if he didn’t say it now, he wouldn’t be able to hide it on the day of the college entrance examination.

Since he had a chance of entering a Martial Arts Academy and had decided to take the exam, he had to tell his family about such a big matter so that they would be mentally prepared.

At first, his parents didn’t believe what Qin Ming said and thought that he was joking.

But when he took out the test report from the hospital and showed it to his parents on the other end of the phone, they had no choice but to believe him.

As parents, they were naturally extremely excited that their child had a chance to enter a Martial Academy and become successful in life. They were even happier than Qin Ming when they saw the test results.

His mother was sobbing on the other end of the line. Qin Ming’s feelings were complicated.

That night, he chatted with his family for a long time. He told them about his recent situation and the college entrance examination, and even discussed future prospects.

After that, almost every night, his parents would call him to tell him not to feel pressured. Even if he didn’t pass in the end, they could accept it.

“Little Ming, the college entrance examination is the day after tomorrow. Mom and Dad will visit you tomorrow.” Her mother’s voice sounded on the phone.

“Mom, don’t you and Dad have to work? I’m fine here. Just wait for the news at home,” Qin Ming said immediately, not expecting his parents to come.

“Of course I’m taking leave from work. As your parents, we have to be present on such an important day. I’ll make you a few delicious meals in the next two days,” Xia Ya said. She was quite confident in her culinary skills.

When his mother had nothing to do, her greatest hobby was making delicacies.

As the number one target for tasting her food, Qin Ming was chubby when he was young. It was only when his father couldn’t stand it anymore that Xia Ya restrained herself from over-feeding Qin Ming. Otherwise, Qin Ming’s physique wouldn’t be like this now.

However, it was also because of his mother’s hobby that Qin Ming had mastered some culinary skills since he was young. Coming to Shanze City alone, he could thus live independently and not starve to death.

…

The next day, his parents came over with their luggage.

When Qin Ming was in school, his parents had come many times, so they were familiar with the place he rented.

“Dad and Mom will stay here for the next two days. Adjust your state of mind and leave the trivial matters in your life to Mom.” Xia Ya looked around the relatively neat small room and nodded in satisfaction.

“Alright, Teacher said that we’ll take a day off today. You guys can do whatever you want. You can walk around the city. It’s not good to work all year round.” Qin Ming sat cross-legged on the sofa and picked up the game controller to start a new adventure.

After eating the last three pieces of Nether Fish at night, Qin Ming fell asleep.

His parents slept on a spare bed in the room. This spare bed was specially used whenever his parents came to the city to visit him.
