After breaking up with my girlfriend, I became a Great Sage of the Demon Clan.

Full of sarcasm.

Then there's GTA. Players of this game should know that if you commit a crime, you can hire a lawyer, and then...

Zhou Yan could imagine that most of the people killed by the Awakened were poor people who could only afford to hire free lawyers provided by the court, while the Awakened had an entire legal team behind them, helping them find legal loopholes word by word to escape punishment.

If this is repeated several times, and the number of times the awakened person is released without charge increases, the idea that the awakened person can kill without being punished will emerge.

Zhou Yan inquired.

"So, awakened individuals cannot escape punishment for murder?"

Bai Rusu nodded.

"Yes, but you can hire the best lawyer."

Zhou Yan asked again.

"Even a lawyer can't get me exonerated?"

Bai Rusu teased.

“Our country abolished the death penalty a long time ago. As long as you are imprisoned for a few years and the heat dies down, we have a million ways to help you get a reduced sentence.”

Bai Rusu winked at Zhou Yan.

“Although we Awakened Ones are powerful, we still have to go through the formalities, just to give the government some face and make them look good in front of the people.”

Zhou Yan: "..."

You'll get used to it.

Bai Rusu leaned back in her chair, her expression complex.

"This is a dog-eat-dog society. Look at the financial crisis and real estate crisis a few years ago. Sometimes it rained on the building where the stock exchange was located. People in their seventies and eighties were evicted from the houses they had lived in all their lives and ended up homeless."

"Everyone says we Awakened Ones are bastards and vile, but in fact, those capitalists, those guys who greedily absorb the flesh and blood of ordinary people, can kill tens of thousands of people and destroy countless families with a mere flick of their wrists, while we..."

Bai Rusu pointed to herself.

"According to reports from the past two years, fewer than fifty of our students and teachers have killed or injured people for some reason. Compared to them, we are practically angels."

Zhou Yan ruffled Su Xiaowan's hair and asked in return.

"I saw a news report yesterday about a mental patient who had an episode and went to the toilet to eat feces."

Bai Rusu looked confused; she didn't understand what Zhou Yan was trying to say.

Zhou Yan added jokingly.

"Look how happily he's eating shit, Teacher Bai, why don't you go and eat some too?"

Bai Rusu's expression darkened.

This kid dares to mock me!

Bai Rusu quickly relaxed.

It's alright. Zhou Yan has only been awakened for a few days. His humanity hasn't been suppressed by his instincts yet. In the future, Bai Rusu has no doubt that Zhou Yan will become just like her.

They viewed humans as livestock.

In this world, if everyone considers eating excrement normal, then Zhou Yan, who doesn't eat excrement, is wrong.

So in the future, Zhou Yan will definitely be with him, enjoying the food like it's delicious.

At that moment, Bai Rusu was determined to ask Zhou Yan.

Shit, does it taste good?

Chapter Nine Class

"You can study on your own from now on!"

Bai Rusu stood up with a cold face and walked out of the classroom. As a demigod and the second-in-command of the Vermilion Bird Sect, this was the first time in Bai Rusu's life that she had been ridiculed like this by a junior.

But Zhou Yan is the Six-Eared Macaque, and his future is far better than hers, the Heavenly Fox who has been ruined by Chaos.

Bai Rusu didn't dare to hit Zhou Yan, so she could only leave to express her attitude. However, as she left, the feeling of security and comfort that Zhou Yan gave Bai Rusu gradually weakened. Once outside the classroom, Bai Rusu couldn't help but frown, and then she cast an illusion spell.

Footsteps could be heard fading away outside the classroom, and Bai Rusu leaned against the wall in the corridor outside the classroom.

Although he was very unhappy and wanted to beat Zhou Yan up, it was indeed comfortable to be around Zhou Yan.

The comfort made Bai Rusu want to stay even now, and in fact, she did stay.

Bai Rusu took out a cigarette from her bosom, put it in her mouth, lit it, and exhaled through her nostrils. As the smoke appeared in front of her eyes, Bai Rusu slowly squinted.

She liked Zhou Yan, but not in a romantic way. It was just that Zhou Yan could be her painkiller, so she liked him functionally.

Unfortunately, Zhou Yan was a troublemaker.

Normally, when you encounter such a troublemaker, you just wait and let society smooth out his rough edges. But Bai Rusu couldn't wait that long.

Bai Rusu wanted to see Zhou Yan, because of his ridiculous naivety, bang his head against the south wall until he was bleeding and crying bitterly in the next few days.

Then he walked over and made a sarcastic remark.

"Young man, you don't know the immensity of heaven and earth."

A more comfortable feeling came over me.

Bai Rusu inexplicably liked the way Zhou Yan would bow down to her in the future, his face full of frustration and helplessness, ultimately forced to let the world overwhelm him.

Like every seasoned veteran, she enjoys seeing impetuous young people become just like her.

……

Inside the classroom.

Zhou Yan carried the sleeping Su Xiaowan to the window. There weren't many people outside, but occasionally he could see a few girls coming and going in different places. Zhou Yan checked the attributes of these people one by one.

Well, they're all cat demons, dog demons, and the like. These weak ones are just awakened students at the demon level, and they don't even have the names of their ancestors. But judging from their attributes, their strength and stamina are at least around 10, which means they can take on dozens of people by themselves, but they'll die instantly if they encounter someone with a gun.

Such awakened individuals are the norm in awakened society. People like Bai Yuan and Bai Rusu, who are at the demon level or demigod level, are high-level figures no matter where they are placed.

Such a person has indeed separated himself from the lower class. To be honest, it is not strange for an awakened person to consciously separate himself from the lower class.

In Chinese mythology, Nuwa created humans in two ways: one was by personally shaping them, and the other was by randomly throwing out mud droplets, which then transformed into humans.

Therefore, isn't it only natural that the people Nuwa personally sculpted are more noble than those made from clay?

There's also the theory of bloodline.

Many people may not know that in 1922, a guy named Laughlin wrote a book called Eugenics and Sterilization. The book mainly presented two viewpoints: one was that the upper elites should have more children, while the lower commoners should undergo sterilization and give up their reproductive rights.

In this way, the entire country will be populated by highly intelligent people in the future.

This led to at least 60,000 people in a certain country undergoing sterilization, and many people from the lower classes were discriminated against and unable to have children. The idea of ​​giving up reproductive rights even triggered the Nazi Holocaust against Jews.

Coincidentally, a world-leading university subsequently conducted a study on the offspring of a group of elites for over thirty years. The study found that, with a few exceptions, the offspring of these elites were not as talented or accomplished as their fathers.

Simply put, the fact that two children born to elite parents are not guaranteed to inherit their parents' intelligence does not mean they will inherit it. In fact, individuals who surpass the ordinary are a mutation, a minority, and do not change with the goal of eugenics. Mediocrity and ordinariness are the norm for everyone.

However, most of the elite class are unwilling to accept this result.

The concept of social classes has existed since ancient times. Even if a group of awakened individuals emerge from among ordinary people, they will still consider themselves as beings created by Nuwa, part of the eugenics program, while other ordinary people will remain the same.

"Quack quack..."

A large bird flew in from outside the window and landed on the window frame. Zhou Yan patted the bird's head and sighed.

“You are all awakened beings, but you seem to have no class consciousness towards mortals.”

Chongba tilted his head in confusion.

"What are you saying? I don't quite understand."

A banner was pulled out from beside the head of the Chongming bird.

Zhou Yan smiled.

"It's okay if you don't understand it, but if you do understand this kind of thing, then you're in big trouble."

Zhou Yan remembered Ying Zhao saying that auspicious beasts are different from celestial beasts, divine beasts, and demonic beasts, and may still retain human nature. Zhou Yan didn't know if what Ying Zhao said was true, but the young man had tried it these past few days, and Zhou Yan couldn't even stand having a waiter standing in front of him while he was eating at a restaurant.

Their humanity hasn't been lost, or rather, these auspicious beasts that bring good fortune to humans may not have lost their empathy for them.

hope so.

Chapter Ten: Close Combat Training

One o'clock in the afternoon.

Zhou Yan arrived at the school's indoor combat training room.

As a six-eared macaque, the school specially assigned Zhou Yan a close combat instructor with an approachable appearance. Zhou Yan stared at this close combat instructor for a few moments.

Favorability: 30%.

Zhou Yan: "..."

There's even a recipe?

"I've reviewed your information."

The teacher in close combat crossed his arms.

"Your physical attributes are quite good, almost the same as mine. Generally speaking, a normal person needs to train their body for a long time before they can learn close combat. But your foundation is not bad, and you are not going to be a combatant in the future."

The close-combat instructor tried his best to put on a kind and approachable expression.

"I'll teach you the techniques of generating and neutralizing force, and walking. After you learn these, I'll find someone to teach you cold weapons and firearms."

Zhou Yan will definitely not be a melee fighter in the future, so he should learn hand-to-hand combat, cold weapons, and firearms only when necessary. Zhuque and Bai Rusu both felt that it was impossible to send an intelligence agent (Six-Eared Macaque) to the battlefield to fight a group of soldiers.

Zhou Yan asked curiously.

"I've heard of this kind of power generation, but what exactly does it look like?"

The close-combat instructor walked up to a sandbag and clenched his fist.

"A normal attack is launched by using the arm as the power source."

The melee instructor inhaled, exhaled, and swung his fist at the sandbag, which weighed ten tons. The sandbag only swayed slightly after the instructor's punch.
