Shi Sheng was nestled in a corner, coldly watching as they struggled.
They were all supporting the female lead.
This was the highlight of the night. Even if their own children didn't stand a chance, these people wanted to see which family's child was so capable as to catch the eye of the guru and become his last disciple.
The basic skills test was very fast, and those who could answer were asked to stand on the other side.
Shen Jiayin was standing at the back. When she was tested, her answers were neither arrogant nor rash. She was very steady. Compared to those who stuttered and spoke incoherently in front of her, she was much calmer.
"Which family's child is this? She's so calm …"
"Her basic skills are quite solid. She has potential, but I wonder how good her eyesight is." The person who said this was probably in this line of work.
A total of five people passed the first round.
Three boys and two girls.
Shen Jiayin received the most attention.
The last test was to pick three pieces from a pile of uncut stones. Whoever picked the most valuable uncut stones would be the winner.
As for the rest of the children, they could keep whatever they got.
This was simply giving them away.
It was clear how rich the guru was.
Of course, the prerequisite was that you had to have the luck and eyesight. If you opened something worth tens of millions, you'd be rich.
But Shi Sheng guessed that this pile of stones had already been picked.
Only the female lead would be able to pick up the leftovers.
"If I knew this would happen, I would have gone up too," Shi Sheng muttered. It would be a waste not to take free money.
"Little Sister Xia likes these?" Yu Jiu leaned against a pillar and asked with a smirk.
"I don't."
"Then what do you like? Me?"
Shi Sheng's retarded gaze immediately swept over. "How big is your face?"
"It's not big, but it's very handsome," Yu Jiu said with a smile.
Handsome, my foot.
Damn, you're cute at most.
While the two of them were bickering, the other side had already started picking.
Shi Sheng was very curious about how Shen Jiayin used her golden finger, so he deliberately walked closer to Shen Jiayin.
Shen Jiayin looked at the stones differently from others. She didn't touch them, nor did she go near them. She was as casual as a monarch.
"She can pick good stones so casually?"
"I think she's only good at memorizing the theory. She can't do anything else."
"If I can't find any good ingredients like this, I'll write my name backwards."
Shi Sheng tilted her head and looked at the person who had spoken. She was standing right beside her.
He was bald, had a beer belly, and had a fat head and big ears. His gaze landed on Shen Jiayin, and there was a lecherous glint in his eyes.
Yu Jiu cut in from the side, separating the two of them. He casually asked, "You don't like her?"
Shi Sheng retracted his gaze. "I like her very much."
He liked her so much that he wanted to kill her.
The more Yu Jiu looked at his little green plum, the more intrigued he became.
It seemed like his childhood sweetheart should be like this.
The person in his memory was wrong.
Yu Jiu reached out to embrace Shi Sheng, separating them from the crowd.
"What are you doing? Are you looking for a beating?" Shi Sheng glared at him.
Yu Jiu pulled her into his embrace, inwardly exerting his strength. "Xiaoxia-meimei, you don't want to embarrass yourself in public, do you?"
[Chain Mission 4: Do not struggle]
"F * ck!"
"Little sister Xia, we can talk about this when we get back." Yu Jiu chuckled.
Shi Sheng: "…" Do you believe I won't draw my sword and hack you to death right now?
System, you want to ascend to the heavens too!
Shen Jiayin had already chosen her three pieces, and she stood there calmly.
Even if she didn't choose well, her guts alone were enough to make others think highly of her.
When the female lead acted pretentious, it was very scary.
Shi Sheng took out his phone and tapped on the Taobao app. Yu Jiu's gaze paused, and he leaned to the side for a moment to block her from everyone else's view.
He watched as she tapped on the app, and the images changed very quickly. It was very novel.
She was so assured to let him see the items. Did that mean that he was no longer someone she needed to be wary of?
Yu Jiu felt a little happy at the thought. This happiness came out of nowhere, but he didn't dislike it.
Clearly, Yu Jiu was overthinking things. Shi Sheng dared to take it out, so she wasn't afraid of others coveting it.
Want it?
Come and snatch it yourself!
Every time she went to a new world, the first thing she did was estimate the world's martial strength.
Based on the background story and the level of spiritual energy in the world, it was easy to determine if the world's highest martial strength was within her acceptable range.
If the martial strength in this world wasn't high, she could handle it.
Shi Sheng tapped on it for a long time before finally stopping on a very good-looking stone.
Just by looking at the unit behind it, she knew that there was something good inside.
The three pieces the female lead had chosen weren't bad either, and they were all very valuable.
Shi Sheng's position was very close to the stone, and a boy was standing not too far away from it. His brows were tightly furrowed, and he looked very conflicted.
Shi Sheng put his phone away and pushed Yu Jiu's hand away. Seeing that no one was paying attention, he approached the boy.
Yu Jiu had been helping her keep an eye on the people around them, so he hadn't carefully looked at the things on her phone. He didn't know what she wanted to do, but he still followed her.
"Hey." Shi Sheng waved at the boy.
The boy didn't notice at first, but only after Shi Sheng called him a few times did he notice.
He looked left and right. Seeing that there was no one around him, he pointed at himself.
Shi Sheng hooked his finger at him and mouthed, "Come here."
Sheng Xia was the type of girl who looked gentle and pretty, and it was very easy for people to have a good impression of her. Seeing that everyone was paying attention to Sheng Jiayin, the boy took a few steps towards Shi Sheng.
Shi Sheng didn't wait for him to say anything and pointed at the stone she was looking at. "Do you see that stone? Choose it, and I guarantee that you'll win. "
The boy was probably a little shy, for his face turned red before he could speak. "Is that okay?"
She was an outsider, so how could she help him choose?
"I don't know." Shi Sheng had an honest expression on his face.
The rules didn't say that she couldn't let others help her choose.
Yu Jiu held back his laughter. His little green plum was so cute even when she was helping others cheat.
He seemed to be liking her more and more!
He glanced at the boy. "If you can't choose, then do as my little sister XiaoXia says. But if you really win, you can't agree to be her last disciple. You'll be exposed."
Although Yu Jiu was smiling when he spoke to others, there was a sense of alienation in his tone. It was the tone of a superior that made others not dare to casually refute him.
The boy was bashful for a moment, then looked around. Seeing that no one was paying attention to them, he finally nodded and returned to his seat.
He probably wanted to choose himself, but he really couldn't. When it was almost time, he asked the attendant to take down the stone that Shi Sheng had pointed at.
Next up was the stone cutting. The process was a little long, so the organizer told them that the others could choose raw stones or rest at the side.
Shi Sheng walked around in a pile of raw stones. Yu Jiu followed behind her, his gaze following her movements.
"Little sister XiaoXia, can you let me take a look at that thing just now?" Yu Jiu quickened his steps and walked beside Shi Sheng.
"Can you understand it?" Black technology, you know? With your retarded IQ, can you understand it?
