The next day.
Zheng Cheng came to the slaughterhouse again.
By this time, Director Zhu had already gathered more than fifty Posqu serpents.
“Brother Zheng, this is the entire month’s quota of Posqu serpents for all of Chang’an City.”
Upon seeing Zheng Cheng, Director Zhu quickly came over to greet him.
“You don’t know, the other slaughterhouses were so excited to hear that someone could dissect the Posqu serpent, they shipped them in overnight.”
“Look …”
Zheng Cheng looked a bit green-faced, having eaten too many serpent gallbladders the night before.
Nevertheless, he flexed his hands and said, “Let’s start! Dissect them now!”
“Okay!”
All morning, Zheng Cheng was dissecting Posqu serpents.
Fifty-four Posqu serpents provided him with sixteen Posqu serpent gallbladders.
At noon, he stayed in the slaughterhouse cafeteria to eat.
He asked the cafeteria chef to cook eleven Posqu serpent gallbladders for him, and he began to eat as if no one else was there.
Each Posqu serpent gallbladder permanently increased his spirit by 1 point and his poison resistance by 1%.
He had eaten nine last night, and today had an allowance for eleven more.
Meaning, he was left with five Posqu serpent gallbladders.
As they were being cooked, he stood by the window, watching intently.
While mundane people couldn’t check the specific properties of items, he couldn’t guarantee there wouldn’t be other Professionists present.
After all.
The slaughterhouse is a state-owned establishment, with several Professionists working there.
Fortunately, during the more than half an hour it took to cook, no other Professionists came to the kitchen.
Eleven Posqu serpent gallbladders were quickly cooked.
He held a big bowl of gallbladders, suppressing his distaste as he ate in oblivion.
The surrounding ordinary slaughterhouse workers all frequently cast glances at him.
“Is that really gallbladder? Eating it like it’s his meal? That’s unnerving!”

“Shhh… Did you hear Director Zhu? He said this young man is a Professionist. Perhaps those gallbladders are some special artifact.”
“Right! I want to know what profession he practices. Why would he like to eat gallbladders so much?”
“Isn’t gallbladder a kind of medicine? Maybe it’s really effective.”
“Possibly…”
After swallowing eleven gallbladders, his spirit skyrocketed to 31 points!
For tomorrow’s trial ruins, he didn’t waste time in the afternoon either.
He took his alloy long knife and set off to the bull slaughterhouse.
The afternoon passed, and he returned to his apartment, satisfied.
In his inventory, besides the five uneaten Posqu serpent gallbladders, he had gained an additional twenty Savage Bull Eyes and thirty Bloody Jade Pork Kidneys.
That was the limit of how much of these special ingredients he could consume!
After cooking all these special ingredients, Zheng Cheng began feasting again.
He exercised furiously after stuffing himself, then continued eating, eating until well after two in the morning.
Early the next morning, he continued eating!
After finishing his meal, he continued his exercise!
It wasn’t until the appointed time for school, did he sprint to school.
While running, he was still gnawing on a Bloody Jade Pork Kidney.
Half an hour later, he finally reached the gate of the Twelfth School.
The twenty Savage Bull Eyes and thirty Bloody Jade Pork Kidneys had all been swallowed by him.
At this point, his personal property had changed considerably!
[Name: Zheng Cheng]
[Profession: Priest]
[Star Level: 3 stars]
[Level: LV0]
[Soul Power: 0/100]
[Strength: 25]
[Constitution: 64]
[Agility: 4]
[Spirit: 31]
[Resistance: Poison Resistance 20%]
[Equipment: None]
[Bag: None]
[Skills: Acute Gastroenteritis Instant Eruption Technique LV3, Random Autopsy LV2]
Although his level hadn’t changed, his four-dimensional attributes had surpassed those of all newly awakened Professionists.
Especially his vitality, which had intimidatingly reached 64 points!
His total attribute points were 124!
Such figures were matchless, even compared to a nine-star Level 10 Professionist!
In addition, his Random Dissection Technique had been upgraded to Level 2 thanks to his constant training at the slaughterhouse over the past few days.
With just a few more points, he could elevate it to Level 3.
Then, a new feature would awaken.
Over a hundred new Professionists were all prepared.
There were also quite a few ordinary students, teachers, and surrounding merchants, all eyeing them.
“These are this year’s newly awakened Professionists from High School No. 12, I’m bloody envious.”
“How good it would be if I could awaken my abilities…”
“By the way, where is Yao Zhixue?”
“I didn’t see her…”
In the crowd, almost everyone wore looks of envy and jealousy.
Especially the other students from High School No. 12.
Ten days ago, everyone was on the same starting line as classmates.
But ever since that day, a huge gap had formed between us.
A gap that could never be bridged in a lifetime.
“How good it would be if I were a Professionist…”
Standing in the front of the crowd with several girls, Song Chaoyu fixated on them with a look of envy, her eyes filled with reluctance to accept this.
“I wonder if the Black Sun Church’s mass is really able to transform ordinary people into awakeners…”
“Regardless of its authenticity, it represents an opportunity for me.”
“I can’t back down…!”
When Zheng Cheng ran over, he quickly attracted the attention of most people.
After all, he was the only one among all school Professionists who came running.
“Brother Cheng!”
In the crowd, Chen Xiao waved to Zheng Cheng.
Accompanying him were Cai Kun and Zhang Ping’an.
“You’ve arrived!”
“Yeah, I came running to get some exercise.”
“Hurry up, Brother Cheng, we’re all waiting for you.”
The group got on the bus, and after the leading teacher, Gao Yang, did a headcount, he said, “Driver, everyone’s here. Let’s start.”
“Alright!”
The bus driver replied, starting the vehicle shortly and driving out of the city.
All dungeons were located in the wilderness.
And were controlled by varying sizes of forces.
The trial dungeon that High School No. 12 had requested was no different.
It was under the control of the state, and distributed to Professionists of other national institutions as needed.
On the bus.
Zheng Cheng and his companions sat at the back, paying no attention to the scenery outside.
Chen Xiao asked, “Brother Cheng, where have you been these past few days? You’ve been out of sight.”
“I went to train my skill proficiency.” Zheng Cheng casually replied, “By the way, have you found the fifth person yet?”
Cai Kun shook his head, “No, only the four of us from Class 4 have awakened. Students from other classes are reluctant to join us.”
Zhang Ping’an angrily added, “Some people even said that we from Class 4 are useless Professionists. Goddamn it, they better not expect me to save them if they’re injured!”
“What should we do now?”
Chen Xiao grinned bitterly, “Well, we have no choice but to go in the four of us.”
“For a dungeon of normal difficulty, I should be able to block the monsters. You three will find ways to kill the monsters then.”
“We can eventually grind the monsters to death!”
Cai Kun confidently added, “Don’t worry, I’m a three-star Professionist after all, my attack isn’t weak. When the time comes, Ping’an and Zheng Cheng you guys just need to heal me…”
“No wait! Zheng Cheng has a strong control skill, I just don’t know if it’ll work on the monsters?”
Zhang Ping’an interrupted, “It depends on which dungeon we’re going to. The simpler, the better!”
Cai Kun suddenly uttered enviously, “Ah, it’d be so great if I were a nine-star Professionist. So many people would love to join us, and the school would even arrange a special car to pick us up.”
“No wonder Yao Zhixue is nowhere to be seen.” Chen Xiao also spoke, “Oh yeah, Brother Cheng, there’s something you should be careful about.”
“What is it?”
“Liang Feifan.” Chen Xiao said, “The guy came looking for you this morning, wanted to teach you a lesson.”
“You weren’t here at the time, so he cursed and left.”
“Him?”
Zheng Cheng smiled, “I would actually love for him to come.”
