Chapter 2 - 2 Classification

Xu Zhou filled a bowl with food and took it back to his room after a quick stir.

He split a bit of his consciousness to control the speckled chicken to start eating.

The big rooster was initially a bit sluggish, but upon touching the food, it instantly became alert, pecking at the food wildly with its head bobbing up and down.

Xu Zhou realized he didn't need to focus much of his consciousness; the speckled chicken would eat autonomously, seemingly a form of muscle memory had developed.

Seeing this, Xu Zhou nodded slightly, not bad, it seemed he didn't need to worry too much about its feeding.

He left the room.

In the living room, his father Xu Tianhai and a pretty young girl were sitting at the dining table.

The girl was Xu Zhou's sister, Li Ruoxi, who was taking small bites of food with an air of quiet elegance.

Father looked at Xu Zhou concernedly, "Little Zhou, you're going to be divided into your field of study tomorrow, right?"

"Yes." Xu Zhou nodded and sat down on the chair.

Xu Tianhai asked in a serious tone, "Have you decided what you want to pick for your high school specialization?"

This world is different from Earth; high school specialization begins in freshman year.

It's not divided into arts and sciences, but into literature and martial arts.

The literary route focuses on culture, while the martial arts route follows the Martial Arts path.

The reason for early specialization in high school is because, in this world, one is considered an adult by freshman year, and only at adulthood can one engage with cultivation methods.

If they are exposed too early, it can affect development and even cause significant harm to the body.

Before Xu Zhou could speak, his sister Li Ruoxi said, "No need to make a decision too early."

"After the division tomorrow, you will undergo an awakening test, and if you fail to awaken, even if you chose the martial arts path, you'll be returned to the literary path."

She continued eating and added, "Of course, if you feel unconfident, you can directly choose the literary path."

Xu Zhou nodded, "Since Sister said so, then I must try the martial arts path."

Li Ruoxi glanced at him coldly, "Don't hold too much hope, be prepared to fail, that way you won't feel much if you do fail."

Facing such blunt words from his sister, Xu Zhou smiled, unsurprised.

Although Li Ruoxi was his sister, there was no blood relation; combined with her outstanding talents since childhood, she always held a bit of arrogance towards him, her frail and often-ill younger brother.

But Li Ruoxi's words weren't from arrogance, but heartfelt concern.

The better one's physique, the higher the chance of awakening.

In Li Ruoxi's mind, the weak and sickly Xu Zhou obviously had little chance.

Beside them, Xu Tianhai said seriously, "Xu Zhou, your academic scores are good, even if you fail to awaken, the literary path is a good choice."

Xu Zhou just smiled at his father's words.

"You never know unless you try; maybe I'll awaken successfully?"

Frankly, even if it was his former self, he would also choose the martial arts path.

His former life's greatest dream was to catch up to his talented and proud sister, and Xu Zhou, inheriting these memories, also had such an aspiration in his heart.

Having said that, Xu Zhou quietly ate without further comment.

Seeing this, Xu Tianhai hesitated, looking at his son with a trace of guilt in his eyes.

Since Xu Zhou's biological mother passed away ten years ago, Xu Zhou became somewhat introverted.

Xu Tianhai couldn't bear the loneliness and remarried Li Yanping, and during that time, he lacked attention for Xu Zhou, who then became even more withdrawn.

Now in the blink of an eye, his son is an adult but also has inherited his biological mother's physique, weak and sickly.

Therefore, Xu Tianhai always felt guilty towards Xu Zhou.

Seeing him choosing martial arts, he felt it was unsuitable and wanted to speak a few words of advice, but the words lingered on his lips, unsure of how to start.

What he didn't know was that Xu Zhou didn't care about any of this.

At this moment, Xu Zhou just wanted to quickly finish his meal and see how the big rooster was doing.

After dinner.

Xu Zhou walked into the room and saw the big rooster standing dazed on a pair of overalls.

When his consciousness wasn't split, it typically stayed in a dazed state.

Xu Zhou shooed the rooster away and picked up his overalls, his school pants which somehow got ruined by this chicken.

He didn't mind though and turned to look at the bowl on the ground.

Deep in thought, Xu Zhou walked towards the classroom, soon arriving at the door of Class 1-8. _{free𝑤ebnovel.com}
