Bel and Gen Xingming had a lot of opinions about Guan Feng, but it was obvious that they were more respectful of him than anything else. After all, Guan Feng could be considered an experienced man. Even his father's generation was his subordinate. No matter how arrogant they usually were, they wouldn't dare act recklessly in front of Guan Feng.
While they were talking about Guan Feng, the doorbell rang.
Silin opened the door, and the triplets came over to take a look at Bel and Gen Xingming. They said, "The big brother downstairs wants these two brothers to come over."
The big brother downstairs … big brother...
Bel said seriously to the triplets, "You should call the man downstairs grandpa!"
The triplets looked puzzled. They really didn't know why they were calling the young man downstairs grandpa. They were going to call him uncle, but they felt that it sounded too old. That was why they called him big brother instead.
Gen Xingming put a hand to his forehead. "Bel, we shouldn't be worrying about how we should address him right now. What do you think Guan Feng will do to us if he asks us to come downstairs?"
Bel finally came to his senses and said with a conflicted look on his face, "He said he's not here to take us back!"
Gen Xingming curled his lips. "You can't understand Fox Guan's words with normal logic. Back in AF1, he was always thinking about how to torture us. If it wasn't for my strong willpower, I would've gone crazy a long time ago."
No matter how unwilling they were, they had to go downstairs anyway.
Bel and Gen Xingming took two steps before they came back and pulled Silin with them to bolster their courage. In the past, all three of them were scolded at the same time. Now that Ulaganuo was gone, the two of them had to endure too much firepower.
However, Guan Feng didn't say anything about Bel and Gen Xingming. He only said one thing, and it was enough to drive Bel and Gen Xingming crazy.
Guan Feng sipped his tea elegantly. "Let me tell you that AF3's semester exam is about to begin. I heard that it's harder this time, and those who miss or fail the exam won't be able to take a make-up test. They'll be demoted straight away."
The corners of Bel and Gen Xingming's eyes twitched again. They didn't doubt Guan Feng's words at all, but they had a feeling that the old man was the reason why the semester exam was harder this time.
Most of the time, Bel and Gen Xingming would always return to the school during the semester exams no matter what they were doing. Even if they missed the exams, they could always take a make-up exam. Although the exams were a little difficult, Bel and Gen Xingming were smart enough to pass them every single time. But Guan Feng's words … of course!
After he was done, Guan Feng looked at Cillin and said, "I heard you dodged four of Goryeo's shots."
"No, he dodged two shots. The other two shots were blocked with his blade." Celine corrected him.
Feng shook his head. "I failed if I didn't hit the target.
Old Man Chang was smart enough to leave with the triplets when he saw Guan Feng talking to Cillin and Cillin. There were service robots inside the shop, so there were bound to be customers waiting for them. Old Chang wanted to arrange a room for them to talk in, but Ming 'Chen of of of Guan Guan didn't.
Guan Feng put down his cup and took out a suitcase with a wave of his hand.
The box looked very ordinary, but when one touched it, one would realize that this box had a completely different tactile feel from an ordinary box. It was made of a rare metal alloy and was incredibly hard. It wouldn't be flattened even by a large aircraft.
Guan Feng passed the suitcase to Silin. "This is a gift for you. There aren't many people around your age who can avoid a Purgatory Thunder Snake."
Silin didn't refuse the suitcase. Judging from what Bel and Gen Xingming had told him about Guan Feng, it was pointless to refuse.
Guan Feng opened the suitcase toward Cillin. There were two compartments inside, one of which contained some parts. Cillin took a look and realized that they were probably gun parts. The other compartment was filled with some strange looking metal pieces of different sizes. The front was a little sharp, and the back looked like the tail of an arrow. The thin metal pieces were probably filled with something else.
To Bel and Gen Xingming's surprise, there was a picture of a lightning-like snake. It was the picture of a Purgatory Thunder Snake. There was a "K" symbol in one of the corners of the suitcase. It was obvious what was inside the suitcase.
Guan Feng had given a Purgatory Thunder Snake to Silin, and a Model K. They didn't understand why Guan Feng would do this. He should've given a Purgatory Thunder Snake, the most basic Model B. What was the meaning of giving a Model K. Wasn't this a psychological blow?
The suitcase's lid was opened at a ninety degree angle to the table, blocking Guan Feng's line of sight. Guan Feng didn't look at the suitcase. He simply stared at Silin and started moving his hands as he spoke.
"I know that Griffin gave you a recommendation card, so this gift counts as a recommendation from me. However, it's up to you whether or not it works."
Guan Feng's movements were too fast. Although Gen Xingming and Bel could catch some of his movements, they were completely disjointed. They missed far more movements than they caught. When Guan Feng's hands stopped moving, a short-barreled gun appeared in Guan Feng's hands.
Guan Feng touched the gunshot wound with his finger. Bel didn't even see where he was touching, but the gun's color changed from bright white to a dull black.
An old master really is an old master!
Silin watched Guan Feng's movements with a calm expression on his face. He didn't look puzzled or surprised like Bel and Gen Xingming, so no one could tell what he was thinking.
After he was done assembling the gun, Guan Feng picked a bullet — it was the metal plate. Guan Feng had picked the smallest one. After installing it, he tossed out the seven small parts he had bought from Old Man Chang and fired without even taking the time to aim.
The sound of metal hitting metal sounded almost at the same time.
The seven parts weren't thrown in a straight line. Most of them weren't in the same direction, but all of them were hit.
The bullet was so fast that it hit the seven parts one after the other while it was changing trajectories. In the end, it shot into the wall. The most surprising thing was Guan Feng's reaction speed. He had already calculated the angle and timing of the shot the moment he tossed the seven parts into the air.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye. It looked like Guan Feng had carelessly tossed out the parts and fired the gun again. The result was seven hits in one shot.
Guan Feng's hand flashed after he fired the shot, and the gun fell to the ground again. Moreover, the parts landed exactly where they were before they were assembled!
He picked up his cup and drank from it again. His expression was exactly the same as before. It was as if he hadn't shot the gun at all.
Cillin had been silent throughout the entire process, and it was only when Guan Feng closed the box that he raised his hand and accepted it.
After he was done drinking, Guan Feng put down his cup and walked toward Bel and Gen Xingming.
Bel and Gen Xingming immediately snapped out of their daze and tensed up when they saw this.
Guan Feng walked in front of Bel and Gen Xingming and patted their shoulders. He said gently, "Prepare yourselves. I hope your exams go smoothly."
Then, Guan Feng walked out of the shop with a bag of things he had just bought. He drove away.
Bel and Gen Xingming were drenched in cold sweat.
Old Fox Guan did it on purpose!! It was a threat, wasn't it? Wasn't it?! He said he hoped their exams go smoothly? Bullshit! Maybe he's thinking about some crazy questions for the exams!
"Bel, what do we do?" Gen Xingming asked with a bitter expression.
"What else can we do? We need to go back and prepare ourselves. We need to see if we can find any hints. It'll be embarrassing if old fox Guan stops us from coming here. Not only will we be laughed at, my father will probably suppress us violently for the next few years. "
Silin listened to their conversation and asked curiously, "You guys can find hints about the exams too?"
Gen Xingming pointed a finger in the direction Guan Feng had left earlier and said, "He told us that the exam this time would be more difficult, so the hidden meaning behind his words is that there's a leaked question. However, we'll have to find the leaked question and its hints on our own."
"So you're saying that the exams had already begun the moment he said those words?"
Bel nodded. "That is correct. In fact, every year before the semester exams, everyone would spend their time and energy to search for hints about the exams, but the results were minimal. The three of us, oh, the third one is Ulaganuo, who I told you about before, the three of us would work together to search for hints before the exams so that we would have a higher chance of passing the exams. "
Gen Xingming looked at Silin sympathetically. "If you go to AF1, the exams will be even more crazy. The hints will be given, but they're pretty hard to find."
Silin wasn't intimidated by this. In fact, he grew even more excited. This kind of exam was much more interesting than the one at Seven Lights. Many of the exams at Seven Lights were rigid, and the questions that could be used flexibly had a range of reference. Overall, they weren't difficult, and they were as simple as Silin could be. It looks like AF1, AF2, and AF3's exam styles are different...
After Guan Feng had left the parts market, he turned on a communicator installed on the car.
"His character is passable, and he's qualified to enter. Continue to investigate his background … it's fine. AF1 trains talents, identity is secondary."
Guan Feng was holding a part he bought from Old Man Chang. It was a flying car part assembled from secondhand parts, and it was assembled by Silin himself.
The person on the other side of the communicator said something that made Guan Feng chuckle a couple of times. "You know me best. I just want to use Silin to provoke those kids."
… …
Bel and Gen Xingming couldn't eat or sleep in peace because of Guan Feng's' intimidation ', so they left in a hurry the next day. They were still students after all, and they didn't have complete freedom.
Old Man Chang didn't know who Bel, Gen Xingming, and Guan Feng were. He had asked Silin before, but Silin had only told him that they were all upper class people.
Old Man Chang understood that the reason the trio had come here was because of Silin. They were lucky enough to be able to bask in his glory, not to mention that they would be able to see two Whirlwinds in their lifetime. As for their identities, it wasn't necessarily a good thing to know too much about them, especially for a commoner like Old Man Chang.
There were some things that Old Man Chang didn't ask about after the trio had left. Instead, he talked to Silin about Chang Xiaowu's education.
Based on Chang Xiaowu's age, he should be able to receive elementary education at a school in the city. But with the knowledge he already possessed, he could absolutely go straight to an intermediate school.
The top three schools in the star region were allowed to give it a try. These schools would hold their preliminary exams on the internet during the special enrollment period. Even some students who were in the middle of their education would have a hard time answering the preliminary exam questions. It was obvious that these schools were very strict with their special enrollment. After the initial test, there was still a second test, an interview, and a series of other processes. If one was a noble, it would definitely be easier to get in if they had strong connections, but for someone like Chang Xiaowu, he would have to go through the same difficult path as Chang Xiaowu and Chang Xiaowu.
Bel and Cillin had discussed the education of the Chang Family's children back at Barren Bator. From what Bel could tell, the prince was more than capable of sending them to the best schools in the star region or even the imperial capital if they were willing to do so.
But according to Silin's understanding of Chang Xiaowu, the kid was proud. He'd rather take the exam himself and be tested step by step than rely on Bel's strong connection.
Cillin had asked Chang Xiaowu about it, and just as Cillin had expected, Chang Xiaowu had rejected him. He had decided to take the exam himself, and he would enter Baelen Bator along with Chang Xiaosan and Chang Xiaowu. After all, there were people he knew there, and it would be more convenient for him to contact his family.
According to the gray cat, it didn't matter which school Chang Xiaowu entered. What he lacked was a springboard, and Barren Baatar, which was ranked in the top ten of this star region, could be considered a good springboard for Chang Xiaowu to jump higher and further.
One night, Huimao couldn't sleep and rolled around on his bed.
"Silin, when can we go back? I still have stuff stored at the base. I don't know if Xueqiu and the Miantuan will steal it. "He would never admit that he missed those guys.
Silin let out a sigh and scratched Huimao's chin. "I don't know …"
Maybe a trip to the imperial capital could help him if he got to know more people.
"Let's go to the imperial capital, Wheeze."
"The imperial capital? That sounds like a good place to relax. Oh right, I should pay AF1 a visit too. "Huimao wanted to know how many idiots like Black Panther were in AF1.
"Okay."
After making up his mind, Silin told Old Chang his plan.
His name was Ah Lai, and he was also from the Civilian District. He was a nice young man, and most importantly, he didn't have any bad intentions. After Cillin left, he would be able to take care of Old Man Chang and the little ones. After all, there were many times when a robot couldn't replace a human.
After everything was arranged, Silin and Huimao departed for the imperial capital of the Mist Bodhisattva Empire.
