An evil smile appeared on Lao Guo's face. He walked up to Chen Qiang, took out a bracelet from his inner pocket, put it on Chen Qiang's left wrist, and pressed a button on it.
Chen Qiang fixed his eyes on it, and the screen on the bracelet lit up with a blue light, showing a stopwatch.
"You can have this bracelet for free. Even if you fail the entrance exam, I won't charge you anything."
"Hey, when did Lao Guo become so generous? Though the bracelet is cheap, it's still worth a Tier-1 Beast Crystal. How could he give it away for free? What a strange story! "
"Well, it's no wonder. Lao Guo is Zhang Yuan's good brother, so he should show some respect to Zhang Yuan, shouldn't he? He must feel sad about failing the entrance exam, so I'm just giving him some consolation. "
Ignoring the crows behind him, Xiao Guo said seriously, "Kid, Xuanwu College is one of the top four universities of the human race. It's highly respected, and not just anyone can get in.
Though you're introduced by Brother Zhang Yuan, first, I'm too low to make the decision. Second, even if you're introduced by a king, you have to pass the entrance exam of Xuanwu College, or you'll be expelled!
Do you see the grove in front of you?
For the first test, you have to enter the grove from there. If you can get through the grove in three hours, you'll pass. "
That simple?
Chen Qiang glanced at the inconspicuous grove, then turned back and asked, "Brother Guo, what about the second test?"
"The second test? Humph! If you can't pass the first test, just leave! Look, I'll go first, and you can enter the grove in ten minutes.
If you can get through the grove in three hours, I'll tell you the content of the second test! "
After saying that, Lao Guo rushed into the grove first.
To Chen Qiang's surprise, Lao Guo disappeared as soon as he entered the grove!
"Is it a maze?" Chen Qiang murmured to himself.
"Hehe, newcomer, you're right. That forest is a maze. Although there's no danger inside, it's not that easy to walk through all the passages and find the right way out in three hours!"
When Chen Qiang heard this, he nodded in understanding. As long as there was no danger.
"Uh … Senior Martial Brothers, may I ask, how long did that Senior Martial Brother Guo take to pass through the forest?"
"Lao Guo? Hehe, he often walks that path. Based on his usual speed, it should take him about ten minutes. "
Though they didn't understand what Chen Qiang meant, these idle students still answered Chen Qiang.
The corners of Chen Qiang's mouth curled up when he heard this. Then, he slowly walked into the small forest.
"Brothers! How long do you think it will take him to get out? "
"How long? Old Wang, don't you think too highly of that kid? I think we should make a bet on how long that kid will be trapped in there. "
"That's right. Brothers, how about we make a bet here? I'll be the host. Let's bet with credits, at least 50 credits, on whether he can get out on time. What do you think? "
"Lou Si 'er, let's do as you say. I'll go first. 50 credits, I bet he can't get out!"
"I'll bet 70 credits, I bet he can get out on time!"
"F * ck! Xiao Liu, are you blind? A middle-level bloodline warrior can pass the first level in three hours. I think you'll lose! I'll bet 100 credits, I bet he can't get out! "
As soon as he entered the small forest, the bracelet on Chen Qiang's wrist rang.
It seemed that these guys were using him as a bargaining chip!
Chen Chen didn't understand what they meant by credits. However, something that Xuanwu College students would bet on shouldn't be worse than the Beast Crystal!
This level couldn't be easier for Chen Qiang. Since that was the case, how could he let go of every chance to get the Beast Crystal?
"Seniors, seniors, I'm Chen Qiang, who is taking the assessment. You guys are having so much fun, and this little brother wants to participate. Why don't you count me in?
It's just that I don't have any credits, and I don't know what that thing is for. Why don't you let me owe you first, and I'll pay you back later? "
After sending out the voice message, Chen Qiang waited quietly for a full minute.
Who would have thought that the target of the bet would want to join in as well? This was really too interesting.
"Hehe, little brother Chen Qiang, right? You haven't become an official student of Xuanwu College yet, so you naturally don't have any credits.
However, after you join, the college will give you 100 credits for free. Moreover, you'll have 20 credits for living expenses every month.
How about this, we'll give you a share. How much do you want to bet? The odds for you to win are 1: 5, and the odds for you to lose are 1: 1. "
Chen Qiang curled his lips. These guys really didn't take him seriously. They actually offered 1: 5 odds.
"Then I'll have to trouble Brother Lou to bet 100 credits for me. How about that?"
"Haha, this kid called Chen Qiang hasn't officially enrolled, but he's already a gambler. I'm more confident now. Lou Si 'er, bet 200 credits on this kid's loss!"
"No, no, brother. Let's make a deal. I'll bet 100 credits at most. Otherwise, I'll lose my life!"
Lou Si 'er accepted the 100 credits with a bitter face, and then sent a message to Chen Qiang through his wristband. "Little brother Chen Qiang, just now Lao Guo said that for the sake of Zhang Yuan, he'll pay for your 100 credits bet. I've already accepted the bet."
Hearing this, Chen Qiang finally felt relieved.
Although Lao Guo's mouth was immoral, he seemed to have a good relationship with Zhang Yuan. In that case, should I not embarrass him too much?
Originally, Chen Qiang planned to use his body movement to walk out of the grove in five minutes. However, since Lao Guo was so generous, he felt a little embarrassed to discourage him.
Forget it. No matter what, you're Zhang Yuan's friend. I'll give you face!
Finally, Chen Qiang successfully walked out of the grove at the ninth minute and fifty-fifth second.
"Ding! Preparatory student Chen Qiang walked out of the first round in nine minutes and fifty-five seconds! "
Almost all the students wearing the wristband received the message at once!
"What's going on? Preparatory student? Is this bullshit? "
"Even if he's an official student, some of them still need ten or twenty minutes to walk out of the grove."
"Shady! There must be a shady deal! Is it some senior student who acted as his substitute? "
"Investigate! Investigate thoroughly! Find out the truth! How can we, the great Xuanwu College, tolerate such a thing? No matter who it is, he must be severely punished as long as he has something on us! "
"Which bastard is the one in charge of the monitoring assessment this time?!
Tell him to come out!
Did he receive benefits from others? Even if he cheated, it's too obvious, isn't it? Do you have a pig brain, or do you think others are pigs? "
After leaving the grove, Lao Guo was humming a tune in his room when he was startled by the message on his bracelet. Then, he heard the furious roar of the director of the Academic Affairs Office and rushed out of the room at once.
"Dean, it's me. I, Guo Liang, am the supervisor of this examination.
Listen to me, there's no shady deal!
That new guy was introduced by Dongyue Shogunate. Yes, yes, Zhang Yuan is indeed my senior, but he didn't ask me to take care of him before he left!
Why are you asking me? Uh … I thought that guy couldn't pass the first test, so I, I went back to my room to lie down.
Um, um, don't worry, dean. I'll definitely find out the truth and give you a satisfactory answer! "
After finishing the painful conversation with the dean, Lao Guo immediately roared at Chen Qiang through the wristband. "Chen Qiang! Tell me, which bastard helped you pass the first test and broke the record of the first test since the establishment of the Tortoise Academy! "
Chen Qiang was listening to all kinds of exclamations and discussions through the wristband. Hearing Lao Guo's roar, he replied innocently, "Senior Guo, no one helped me. If I have to say which bastard helped me, I think it's probably you! "
Hearing Chen Qiang's words, the wristband became noisy again.
"There's definitely an inside story! There's definitely a shady deal! I didn't expect the corruption to grow from the inside when the ball became the referee! "
"It seems that the dean was right. There's something wrong with Lao Guo."
Lao Guo almost fell to the ground when he heard that. He said with a crying voice, "Chen Qiang, you son of a bitch! What did I do to you? How dare you do this to me!
Senior Zhang Yuan, you've brought me a lot of trouble this time! "
"Guo Liang! If you don't have a perfect explanation, you'll be kicked out together with this new student! "
The dean's roar came out from the wristband, and Lao Guo's legs immediately turned to jelly.
"Chen Qiang! If you're a man, you'd better tell me the truth! I, Guo Liang, am a man of honor. When did I give you the green light to pass the test? "
Chen Qiang looked around at the empty surroundings and said with an aggrieved tone, "Senior Apprentice Brother Guo, of course I am a man. I did walk out of the forest because of the scent on your body. "
"The smell on me?" Lao Guo sniffed himself and didn't find anything strange. He then shouted at the wristband, "Nonsense! I don't have any smell on me! "
A strange expression appeared on Chen Qiang's face as he weakly said, "Senior Apprentice Brother Guo, I'm telling the truth. I smelled the fragrance of jasmine and garlic on your body, so I followed you out."
As soon as Chen Qiang finished his words, the noise in the wristband disappeared for a while. Half a minute later, the wristband was filled with laughter.
"Haha, that's right! This new Junior Brother's nose is really too sharp!
Lao Guo usually hides his feelings well, but who doesn't know that he's secretly in love with Junior Sister Nie Feng! "
"That's right! Junior Sister Nie likes to use jasmine perfume, and I saw with my own eyes this morning that Lao Guo chewed a whole head of garlic for breakfast! "
Lao Guo, who was about to reach Chen Qiang, was stunned.
However, before he could react, an extremely murderous voice came from the other side of the communicator like a volcano.
"Guo Liang! You bastard! I'll give you one minute to get your ass over here! "
"F * ck! Chen Qiang! You son of a bitch! Stand there and don't move! We'll deal with you when I come back! "
Lao Guo pointed at Chen Qiang not far away and spat out those words. Then he turned around and ran away. Unexpectedly, he slipped and fell on the ground. Ignoring the dirt on his body, Lao Guo got up and disappeared without a trace.
Watching Lao Guo disappear as if his ass was on fire, Chen Qiang felt wronged.
What does it have to do with me?
