Chapter 153: 153, Replicate! Shadow Gate!

Because of the relationship between Zhang Jinglin and Jiang Wu, Ren Xiaosu still held great respect for the profession of teaching.

Ren Xiaosu stood up and spoke honestly: "Teacher, I don't understand the problem on the blackboard. I never studied these things in the collective town before, and now I'm catching up from the first-year curriculum."

"Mhm," the math teacher nodded: "Don't pass random notes during class. If you don't understand something, come to the teaching office to ask me. I'm in the room on the third floor."

"Thank you, teacher," Ren Xiaosu said politely.

"Sit down," the math teacher said with a warm smile.

In fact, many students at Bilei School stopped studying seriously by their third year, for the university within Bilei was not large and only admitted a limited number of students, so ninety percent of Bilei's students had no chance to pursue higher education.

When they graduated from high school, they had to immediately consider whether to work and earn money or attend a technical college to learn practical skills such as machinery repair, agricultural trade and breeding, excavator operation, or culinary arts...

After completing their studies, they naturally became the cornerstone of Bilei.

Bilei had high-end research laboratories, and even that university primarily focused on academic research. These days, college students in Bilei were highly valued, representing the knowledge structure of Bilei.

But a complete society could not exist with only the upper class, so the foundation was indispensable.

Just as displaced people had to do basic work like farming and mining, most ordinary people in Bilei had to do foundational jobs like cleaning and greening vegetation.

During the first class break, Jiang Wu came to the classroom. She taught Chinese, but Chinese classes were usually scheduled for the third or fourth period. In this era, physics, chemistry, and math were the most important subjects.

Jiang Wu stood on the podium and said: "Everyone be quiet. You all know our class was just established, and we still lack a class monitor, a study committee member, and subject representatives. So I want to use this break to let everyone vote."

A student named Zhu Pei Yuan laughed and said: "No need to vote. Let Ren Xiaosu be the class monitor."

After the previous series of events, the students had already become very close to Ren Xiaosu, and everyone respected him. If they were to elect a class monitor, all would subconsciously choose Ren Xiaosu.

At that moment, someone jokingly asked: "Which Ren Xiaosu?"

"Haha, both Ren Xiaosus can be elected—one male as class monitor, the other female as study committee member. That way, it's easier to distinguish them. From now on, they'll be called Class Monitor Ren Xiaosu and Study Committee Ren Xiaosu," a female classmate named Bian Lingchen said cleverly.

"Is that settled?" Jiang Wu smiled and looked at everyone.

"That's settled!" a group of people cheered.

Ren Xiaosu, standing in the back row, wondered if the class monitor could issue more subsidies. They had decided without even asking his opinion...

At this time, Yang Xiaojin had already put her duck-bill cap back on her head. Ren Xiaosu looked at her and whispered: "What do the class monitor and study committee member do?"

"To urge everyone to study," Yang Xiaojin replied briefly. She found the question boring. In fact, the class monitor and study committee member had little real work, but she didn't want to explain in detail to Ren Xiaosu.

Yet she didn't expect that in the days to come, her casual remark would bring such a disaster to her classmates...

During class that day, Ren Xiaosu noticed Yang Xiaojin wasn't paying much attention. He didn't know why this girl had come to school—could there be some hidden objective here?

But that didn't make sense. If there was a target for assassination in this school, with her straightforward nature, she would have killed the person outright. It wouldn't be difficult.

So this matter left Ren Xiaosu somewhat puzzled.

After school in the afternoon, Yang Xiaojin left first, and Ren Xiaosu silently followed her.

At this moment, Ren Xiaosu had an idea. He planned to check where Yang Xiaojin lived and how close it was.

After all, this girl had bought materials for making bombs. If she ended up clashing with the Huozhun Company later, he would know where to avoid...

However, Yang Xiaojin walked further and further off the main path. When she reached a small alley, Ren Xiaosu suddenly saw Yang Xiaojin turn around and smile at him, then another door opened in the shadows, and a hand reached out...

No need to think—this was Luo Xinyu picking up Yang Xiaojin!

Ren Xiaosu was shocked. This method could save a lot of tram fare.

Last time, when he saw Luo Xinyu leading Yang Xiaojin away on the rooftop, he hadn't reacted in time. After returning home, Ren Xiaosu regretted not using the Skill Learning Map on Luo Xinyu.

This time, he wouldn't miss the opportunity.

He thought in his mind: "Use the basic Skill Learning Map, use the perfect Skill Learning Map!"

Ren Xiaosu now had two maps in total. He used them all at once. Even if he didn't learn any supernatural abilities, he could try learning the master-level skills from the other party.

Suddenly, the palace voice sounded: "Randomly selected the opponent's advanced skill: nose-picking. Do you want to learn it?"

What a joke!

Ren Xiaosu was stunned. Could the two of them have any normal skills? You're a respectable celebrity—why would you have such a strange skill? Was advanced nose-picking supposed to pick more cleanly?

But there was still a chance. The judgment from the perfect Skill Learning Map hadn't come out yet!

The next moment, before Yang Xiaojin completely disappeared...

"Randomly selecting the target's master-level or supernatural abilities. If a master-level skill is selected and you don't possess the corresponding advanced skill, you won't be able to learn it."

"Multiple master-level or higher skills detected on the target. Randomly selected supernatural ability: Dark Shadow Gate. Do you want to learn it?"

The departed Yang Xiaojin didn't see Ren Xiaosu's ecstatic expression. At this moment, Ren Xiaosu was completely overwhelmed by a sea of joy!

To be honest, Luo Xinyu must have had many master-level skills, even perfect-level ones. So randomly selecting a supernatural ability was a rare occurrence, but Ren Xiaosu never expected to actually draw his second supernatural ability!

The first ability, Shadow, was already powerful enough, and this time, it was even more significant.

Ren Xiaosu tried to use this ability. In an instant, two Dark Shadow Gates appeared before him—one entrance, one exit.

The only flaw was that Ren Xiaosu might have just acquired this skill, so he still couldn't control the exit's position well.

The exit's position deviated from his imagination. Originally, he wanted it to open on the left, but now it opened on the right.

But that didn't matter!

Ren Xiaosu smiled with delight at the scene. This way, he could shuttle freely through Bilei with Yan Liyuan and the others!

He tried to pass through the entrance, but an accident occurred...

Ren Xiaosu discovered he could only pass through with half an arm!

"Wait! Something's wrong!" Ren Xiaosu was stunned. In just a minute, he tried countless times, but no matter how he tried, he could only pass through one hand!

Was it because when he used the map, Luo Xinyu had only extended one arm?

Can this palace be more reliable? Why could others shuttle freely, but he could only pass through an arm? What if he encountered danger in the future and needed to escape? Would his hand run away first?

...

My family will have water and electricity cut off soon, until tomorrow morning. I'll post this in advance...

Thanks to the readers who can't finish reading or see through it all, Gong Chang Zhang San, and the three classmates: Angry Zhe Zhe, for becoming the new allies of this book!
