Chapter 11

At the street corner, there was a ** who stayed behind, wanting to see what the knight's squire was doing here. Upon hearing the squire's words, his legs went weak, and he almost fell to the ground. Attending the entrance exam for the Church Academy? The young apprentice from the Wild Herb Shop actually has such a profound background! Thinking about how two of his companions had tried to stab him today, he was relieved that only his companions were beaten and the young apprentice was unharmed. If the young apprentice had been injured, he would likely be implicated as well.

The **, in a panic, leaned against the wall, his legs trembling and unable to stand steadily. No, he had to tell the boss about this as soon as possible. How could he have unknowingly caused such a huge trouble? He must never think of targeting the Wild Herb Shop again. If he were to offend those big shots, he wouldn't have a place to stand in the entire Moonlight City.

Jiang Junming was also stunned for a moment, then he thought it might be related to the priest named Raphael he had saved last night.

"Prepare yourself," the other squire said indifferently, then the two of them turned and left without even looking at Jiang Junming. They didn't want to linger in such a dirty and messy area for even a minute.

"Please wait a moment," Jiang Junming suddenly thought about the entrance exam for the Church Academy the next day, and he didn't know what it would test. It was like not knowing whether the exam tomorrow would be biology or pharmacology; how could he take the exam?

"Hmm?" Hearing Jiang Junming's voice, one of the squires paused, turned around, and looked at him impatiently.

"Could you please tell me what the Church Academy's test will be about tomorrow?" Jiang Junming mustered up the courage to ask.

The squire's face suddenly showed a strange expression, then he laughed and said, "You don't even know that?"

"What can people living here know?" the other squire said coldly.

"True. Not knowing anything, how can you take the test? I guess he's just going to take a look and won't get into the Church Academy," the laughing squire said to his companion, then looked at Jiang Junming and said, "The Church Academy's test is to see if students can sense divine power and have the foundation to receive it." After that, the two squires turned and left.

"Does this kid think that just because he can take the Church Academy's test, he'll become a big shot?" one of the squires said with a chuckle.

"Who knows? Many students take the test, but few get into the Church Academy. Don't bother with him; the smell here is unbearable. I feel uncomfortable just being here. Let's go quickly."

The faint voices faded as the two squires walked further away, turning the corner and disappearing from sight.

The troublemaker had long vanished, the squires had left, and the onlookers slowly dispersed. The people from the Wild Herb Shop also returned to the store.

Stamm rubbed Jiang Junming's head hard and said excitedly, "You're really something, being able to take the Church Academy's test! When you become a big shot, don't forget us."

"Yeah, Junming, you're really lucky," the other apprentices said, gathering around Jiang Junming.

"Congratulations, Junming. Whether you become a priest, a cleric, or a paladin, any of those will be much better than us."

The apprentices congratulated Jiang Junming, talking all at once. Although they knew from the squire's words that taking the Church Academy's test didn't mean getting into the Academy, who wouldn't want to dream a beautiful dream? Even if it wasn't them, such a stroke of luck happening to someone close to them was enough to excite people struggling in the mire of hunger and survival for a long time.

Moreover, Jiang Junming was kind and got along well with everyone, so the apprentices were genuinely happy for him.

Vincent coughed to stop the apprentices' chatter and said, "Junming, go rest. You have the Church Academy's test tomorrow. Get plenty of rest and make sure you pass the temple's test."

Sensing divine power? Jiang Junming had no idea what that meant, his mind was in turmoil. As he spoke, neighbors began to come to the Wild Herb Shop, bringing meager gifts and smiling, congratulating Jiang Junming on being able to take the Church Academy's test.

Vincent entertained the neighbors' congratulations and had Jiang Junming return to the inner room to rest and prepare for the Church Academy's test the next day.

Sitting in the room, Jiang Junming was still uneasy. Divine power? Sensing divine power? What kind of concept was that? A supernatural ability, Jiang Junming had no idea what it was. But he knew that if he could pass the Church Academy's test, his life would change for the better, at least he wouldn't have to be a pharmacy apprentice and live a life of poverty.

Since coming to this world, Jiang Junming had been working hard for this. Now that an opportunity had appeared, he was anxious, afraid of missing it. Lying in bed, Jiang Junming dozed off.

As usual, Jiang Junming appeared in the six-sided rectangular space of the light brain. The small tree formed by the light on the opposite side added a bit of vitality to the six-sided rectangular space, making it less monotonous than before.

As soon as he appeared in the light brain, a milky white light descended from the sky, enveloping Jiang Junming's body. It felt warm and comfortable, like soaking in a hot spring.

"Host's physical constitution slightly improved." After the light disappeared, the light brain's cold mechanical voice echoed in the six-sided rectangular space. The light brain then formed a surgical knife in Jiang Junming's hand, and a human figure appeared in front of him, with light points on its body flickering on and off.

"Review Basic Medicine Level 1, Elementary Anatomy." The light brain's mechanical voice sounded, and Jiang Junming followed the instructions to perform the anatomy he had learned. However, this time, Jiang Junming made frequent mistakes, and the familiar actions from last night were now different.

Soon, the light brain seemed to sense that Jiang Junming was somewhat restless today. The light on the human figure disappeared, and the mechanical voice said, "What happened? Your mind is not focused today, it's scattered."

"Huh? How do you know?" Jiang Junming stopped his actions, and the surgical knife in his hand disappeared.

"Adrenaline increased by twelve percent, lactic acid accumulation in the body after exercise increased by 5.6 percent, heart rate reached 110 beats per minute, and the frequency of ATP high-energy phosphate bond cleavage and energy release increased by 6.5 percent. Based on the data accumulated from observing you, something must have affected your emotions," the light brain said a series of data, leaving Jiang Junming speechless. This kind of professional data could fundamentally reflect a person's emotional changes, and even the most professional and trained spies would find it hard to conceal such basic changes in their bodies.
