The sound of reading filled the classroom as the first rays of sunlight greeted the morning through the windows.
Jiang Wen sat in his seat, a look of confusion on his face.
He clearly remembered being in the Great Qian Land, a place teeming with demons and monsters. How could he have returned to his high school days in the blink of an eye?
He looked at his fair and tender hands. If the pain wasn't so real, he might have thought he was having an unbelievable dream.
Unable to feel his magical power or summon his flying sword, Jiang Wen even wondered if his previous experiences with demons and monsters were all just a figment of his imagination.
He raised his head and looked around. Several large characters were written on the blackboard.
"Three days until the college entrance exam."
On the podium, the teacher was hunched over, grading homework.
A few large words were strikingly presented in front of Jiang Wen, reviving long-dead memories as countless unfamiliar and familiar faces flooded into his mind.
Senior year of high school, with only a few days left until the college entrance exam.
"No, no," Jiang Wen waved his hand and laughed. "How could I be handsome? Class monitor, don't talk nonsense. And don't touch me randomly."
"How is it possible! How did you discover my Southern Bough Dream Technique?! You shouldn't be able to break it!" A shriek came from inside the house, and an old woman leaned out, glaring at him fiercely.
Since he had already cultivated immortality, why was he reborn? And if he had to be reborn, why not back to elementary school? At the very least, high school freshman year would have been acceptable. Why did he have to be reborn right before the college entrance exam?
Then, the formation was activated, trapping him within a Four Symbols Array.
You have to know that the information from the next ten years is no less valuable than the previous decades. The rapid changes of the internet mean that even a slight misstep can lead to downfall. For example, the emergence of Pinduoduo was something Taobao couldn't have foreseen, just as the rise of Douyin was unimaginable to the industry.
Jiang Wen looked over, realizing that there were quite a few opportunities to make money in the future. Some required capital, while others did not.
"Damn it! If you're going to let me be reborn, do it sooner! What's the point of being reborn right before the college entrance exam!" Jiang Wen cursed inwardly. "I've already cultivated immortality, what's the point of making me reborn?! This damn God!"
When the bell rang to signal the end of class, Jiang Wen also put aside his thoughts.
Before he could put away the paper, he was patted on the back.
Because of her beauty, she was considered the dream girl of the boys in the class. Jiang Wen remembered that he had also had a crush on the class beauty. However, because of his introverted personality, he didn't dare to approach her.
Since cultivation and time travel were all just dreams, then now that he was reborn, his life could no longer follow the old path. Even if he didn't get into college, he would find his own way.
Jiang Wen stepped on Frostmourne and sped away from the house. Before he could approach the wooden house in the distance, four flying swords fell together, covering the entire wooden house.
Mystic Eyes! Open!
Jiang Wen was both angry and annoyed, feeling a throbbing pain in his head as he looked at the books. "Ouch, no good, my brain is about to grow."
"Where exactly did things go wrong? Why are you able to break free from this nightmare?"
"Sigh," Jiang Wen sighed and closed the book.
Those experiences in the Great Qian and the years of growth seemed like a fleeting dream, both real and magical.
His pen wrote on the paper, unconsciously filling it with words.
"Really?" The class monitor showed a surprised expression, staring at him with her beautiful big eyes for a moment, then reached out and pinched his face. "You're so handsome, how come I only noticed it today?"
When Jiang Wen opened his eyes again, he was still in that dilapidated wooden house.
"Class monitor, I'm not writing anything," he folded the paper filled with information and threw it into the drawer, smiling at the girl and meeting her eyes.
"What's wrong? Can't I?" The girl looked at him in disbelief, but seeing Jiang Wen's serious expression, she subconsciously said, "Okay then, the college entrance exam is coming up soon, so you should at least study something. It's good to find a job after you graduate from college. Your aunt and uncle are worried about you, and they're thinking about your future. Don't hang out with those friends of yours anymore. When you get into a good college, I'll be your girlfriend, and you can do whatever you want."
So in his impression, his relationship with the class beauty didn't seem very familiar, at least not to the point of greeting each other like friends.
Then he picked up a pen and paper, seriously thinking about what opportunities there would be to make money after his senior year of high school.
He could understand the words in the book, but he couldn't figure out what they meant when put together. He had long forgotten those knowledge points, and with only three days left, there was no time to do anything.
This really made Jiang Wen feel strange, and he felt that something was wrong.
With everything planned out, Jiang Wen felt satisfied.
Bitcoin, shared bicycles, short videos, online merchants, internet celebrities, game live streaming, food delivery platforms, US stocks…
He didn't know what kind of emotions to use to face this matter, only that his heart was filled with mixed feelings.
She was very beautiful and had a beautiful voice. It's just that she didn't show any consideration when doing things and always liked to snitch to the teacher.
"So that's how it is. As long as I find my true self and realize that I'm in a dream, I can regain my magical power and be able to cast spells?"
The third eye on his forehead suddenly opened, and the entire classroom instantly shattered into pieces as golden light flashed.
"It's nothing, I just remembered some things," Jiang Wen paused, then smiled in relief. "It's not that important anymore."
What was her name? Jiang Wen couldn't quite remember, only that she seemed to be the class beauty and also the class monitor.
Jiang Wen was a little dazed, until the girl called him a few times before he woke up.
For example, Bitcoin, Jiang Wen had also curiously checked the information and was curious about this thing that could skyrocket in price. After he understood this thing, he also regretted why he hadn't touched it in the first place? If he had saved more while it was cheap, wouldn't he have been able to get rich overnight?
"What are you spacing out about?" she asked.
"Nightmare?" Jiang Wen found it funny. Sure enough, for the people of the Chinese Dynasty, the college entrance exam was the biggest nightmare in life. It's just that this so-called nightmare had some extra things added to it, allowing him to find the flaws.
"Using such a beautiful class monitor to talk to me about marriage, do you really think I like to daydream!" Jiang Wen said with disgust, picking up a few talismans and throwing them into the house. Lightning flashed, like a spider web, and screams came from inside the house.
"Remember, next time don't let a girl use my parents' tone to lecture me. This kind of flaw is obvious to everyone," Jiang Wen said disdainfully, listening to the voice in the house. "Moreover, I'm not familiar with the class monitor. It's not like any woman can seduce me, even if she's beautiful."
