Tang Ling would never think of himself as a schemer.
All he relied on was his intelligence.
The giant Leicester silverback bear was intelligent, cunning, and suspicious.
It was impossible for it to be like a greedy and stupid beast that would obediently eat the meat that Tang Ling fed it.
The only way was to put on a show and hint to the bear that the meat was not for it but that he wanted to eat it.
Life was like a drama. It all depended on acting, didn't it?
A faint smile hung on Tang Ling's face as he placed his hands in his pockets. He would take a few steps forward and sometimes stay still as he watched the giant Leicester silverback bear growl, roll around, and run madly before ramming itself against the cage.
The gigantic bear caused a huge commotion that shook the whole bloody cage, but it was no longer a threat. The only thing Tang Ling could do was to dodge from time to time to prevent the crazy bear from crashing into him.
It was as if he was taking a stroll in his own backyard.
His gaze never left Instructor Lionel. There was no anger or pleading, but his calm gaze almost made Lionel crush the precious cigarette in his hand. Does this kid have a death wish?
The crowd was dumbfounded as they watched the scene unfold in the cage.
Some of the knowledgeable scholars even thought of a legendary occupation in the old civilization — the sorcerer.
Did Tang Ling cast some kind of witchcraft on the bear?
"Five."
"Four."
Tang Ling did not care about what the others thought of him. He was still counting based on his instinct, but when he counted to one, the giant Leceister silverback bear did not fall. Instead, it was delayed for three seconds before the bear growled unwillingly and fell to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.
Tang Ling slightly frowned.
He was a little dissatisfied. Even with a few absolute numbers, he still could not calculate the precise time for the giant Leicester silverback bear to fall to the ground.
I'll just have to work harder.
Tang Ling did not want to waste any more time. He inhaled deeply, swung his bandaged right hand, and strode towards the fallen giant Leicester silverback bear.
The reaction to eating the vicious beast meat could be divided into three stages: comfort, pain, and complete weakness.
Comfort, pain, and complete weakness.
Regardless of which stage it was, the person would lose their ability to fight.
Tang Ling did not feel any comfort after eating the vicious beast meat, but only he knew that the moment he swallowed it, the warmth from the energy that spread through his body made him feel like he was drunk.
Unfortunately, the duration was too short.
However, no matter how different the giant Leceister silverback bear was from him, the final weakened stage was the perfect time for him to turn the tables around.
He quickly stood beside the giant Leicester silverback bear and sized up the weakened giant bear from a higher vantage point.
Perhaps it instinctively felt danger, the silverback giant bear struggled to stand up, but it couldn't even complete this simple action.
There was no such thing as soft-heartedness, and there was no such thing as hesitation.
Tang Ling who was covered in blood smiled at Lionel and asked, "Are you looking forward to it?"
Then, he tore the badge off his chest, held it between his fingers, and stabbed the giant Leicester silverback bear's eye with all his might.
There was no other way.
Even though the giant Leceister silverback bear was at its weakest state, it was not something that Tang Ling could kill easily.
He could only choose the most direct method, to destroy the brain!
**
The huge corpse of the bear was lying in the iron cage. If not for its bleeding eyes, it would look like it was just sleeping.
The youth covered in blood stood calmly in the cage. His bright red fingers and the badge dripping with blood were proof of his glory.
This scene was deeply engraved in the minds of everyone present. Even if they thought about it ten years later, it would still be fresh in their minds.
However, there were no cheers or gasps in the square.
If it was just a glorious victory, there would be applause, but what if it was a miraculous victory?
Amidst the rising and falling breaths, the strange silence …
Orston leaned against the wall with his arms crossed, Yu was in deep thought, Fei Long was shocked, and Lionel's gloominess seemed to freeze at that moment.
The result was out.
There might have been people who saw how Tang Ling won the battle, like Fei Long.
However, the result was the result. Even if Lionel locked Tang Ling up again, it would be meaningless.
Tang Ling was not arrogant. He looked at Lionel and said softly, "Open the door."
It was a matter of course.
Lionel finished the last puff of his cigarette and slowly stood up.
Everyone assumed that Lionel would have to admit defeat and lower his head at this point, but Lionel had no such intention.
However, Lionel did not plan to do so. He tossed the cigarette in his hand away, crushed it with his shoe, and announced loudly, "Candidate No. 45's result is invalid!"
The moment his words subsided, the crowd went into an uproar.
The smart ones could tell that Lionel was targeting Tang Ling from the start, but was it really fine to do it in public?
"The exam isn't a game." Fei Long's voice was obviously filled with dissatisfaction.
However, Lionel did not panic. He glanced at Fei Long before he faced the crowd and said loudly, "I, Lionel Agnes, as a member of the Agnes family, am a man of justice. I will never treat the most sacred exam of Safety Sector No. 17 as a game.
"Please give me a little bit of time. Let me prove why examinee number 45's result is invalid."
"Let me have a chance to explain myself for my previous actions."
Lionel's gaze was firm while his lips curled up into a mocking smile.
The crowd calmed down a little when they heard Lionel's words. No matter how much they wanted to watch a good show, publicly disrespecting the sacred exam was still beyond the bottom line of the people of Safety Sector No. 17.
Fei Long did not say anything. Even though his expression was sour and he had guessed Lionel's goal, Lionel had mentioned the Agnes family. If he forcefully stopped him and did not even give him a chance to explain himself, he was afraid that …
Compared to the threats outside the wall, the chaos inside the wall was scarier.
After some hesitation, Fei Long decided to hold back his anger.
With a little delight in his heart, Lionel slowly walked up to the door of the iron cage.
Everyone else watched the development of the situation with complicated feelings. Only Tang Ling calmly looked at Lionel who stood in front of the iron cage.
He already knew what Lionel would do next.
Not everything was flawless. Since Lionel chose to expose the Level 3 vicious beast meat, he had to bear the consequences.
However, there were many ways to bear the consequences, and being submissive was not the only option.
Despite his calm expression, Tang Ling's heart was pounding violently.
Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong! Every beat was like a drum that devoured all the emotions in the room — anxiety, helplessness, sadness …
However, there was no fear at all.
