Chapter 127: We Four Master and Disciples
The exam had been ongoing for about an hour.
The examination area, near the central zone, was a patch of withered yellow grassland that constantly emitted a unique fragrance. Two Scarlet Flame Wolves lay motionless on the ground.
Su Xiao Yu wiped the bloodstains from her metal gauntlets, then casually scanned the QR code on the corpses. Seeing “+50 points,” she sighed slightly and smiled at Hua Yu, who was distractedly looking at his phone beside her. “Brother Hua, with your and my combined strength in our group, we can at least make it into the top ten, even if it’s not ideal.”
Although he got beaten up, he found himself mixed with the top ten students in the grade.
“First group… What the hell are they doing?! Their scores???” Hua Yu leaned against his long staff, staring intently at the leaderboard on his phone, exclaiming in shock.
Su Xiao Yu looked over, puzzled. Her gaze fell on his phone and she saw that the first group already had nearly three thousand points. Looking at the second group with only seven hundred points, her mouth hung open, speechlessly.
“Are they… cheating?”
At that moment, a shadowy young man in referee attire swept past them from behind. Two students, like attendants, followed him. Upon seeing Su Xiao Yu and the others, he stopped and asked coldly, “Have you seen the Tang Sanzang master and disciples, plus a little whirlwind?”
“What?” Su Xiao Yu was stunned.
Why didn’t he ask where the Western Heaven was? And adding a little whirlwind, why not add the Great King Golden Horn?!
Seeing Su Xiao Yu’s expression, as if looking at an idiot, the shadowy young man knew his words were ambiguous. He frowned and said:
“It’s the group wearing five masks. They are hunting monsters indiscriminately, relying on their strength. I need to find them immediately.”
Su Xiao Yu guessed that this was Zhi Zhi’s group. She immediately shook her head, pointed ahead, and said, “Haven’t seen them, but their points are increasing so rapidly, they should be in the high-resource area ahead?”
“You wait here.”
He then said this to his followers before hurrying away.
However, after he left, the two attendants stood frozen, their eyes a little vacant, like mechanical beings that only knew how to breathe.
It seemed a bit eerie.
“What are these things?”
Su Xiao Yu and Hua Yu exchanged glances, then cautiously approached the two attendants in student uniforms and lightly tapped their faces.
“Clang!” A metallic sound echoed.
…
On the other side, Sun Wukong Boy was having a blast. He even summoned beast soldiers with his double-ended staff, which, although a nunchaku, was still a staff.
“Boom!”
In just a moment, another Dark Night Tiger fell to the ground.
Fighting in these low-level matches was like playing a stress-relief game for him. After all, those who came out to deal with intern dragon hunters were all fourth-year students with skills and experience.
Beside him, except for the girl wearing the Sha Seng mask who occasionally provided aerial support with her feathers, the others were in a leisurely posture, which made Mo Han Zhi and the others find them even more mysterious.
“Beep beep!” Su Jiu’s phone vibrated.
[Director Yan just called the referees. It might be related to your rapidly increasing scores.]
Sliding open the screen, Su Jiu looked at the text message from her father and immediately replied: [Dad, keep an eye on her for me. If there’s any issue with the referees, arrest her immediately.]
Pocketing her phone, she looked up and said sternly to Lu Xin and the others, “Someone’s coming soon. Do you know what level these referees are?”
Normally, they should only be at the Advanced Stage Warrior level, but in such a large-scale map…
As expected—
“The chief judge is a Dragon Hunter of the Intermediate Battle General level. I don’t know about the others, but I heard they were all recruited from the Dragon Slayer Alliance in this city,” Lu Xin replied.
“Intermediate Battle General…”
Lowering her head, Su Jiu gently rubbed her fingernails, her expression somewhat solemn. She could only pray that the chief judge was not a member of the Ancient God Sect.
After all, the sacrificial formation had a blessing effect. In that case, they would be facing a group of Intermediate Battle Generals and one Advanced Stage Battle General!
The most important thing now was to find a breakthrough, meaning the first referee to arrive at their location.
“Another 50 points added. By the time of the Gaokao, we will definitely achieve good results with these medicinal herbs.”
Looking at the numbers and rankings on her phone, Mo Han Zhi felt like she was living in a dream. All of this was thanks to these characters from Journey to the West.
Especially this Sun Wukong.
She looked gratefully at Sun Wukong Boy, who was walking around like he was wreaking havoc.
At this moment, a figure in referee clothes appeared in her line of sight. She was puzzled, why would a referee intervene here when no one was injured?
Just as she was wondering,
The shadowy-faced referee accelerated and appeared in front of Sun Wukong Boy, asking coldly, “Are you guys even students? You don’t match any records at Zhiyuan High School.”
Mo Han Zhi’s team members were all stunned. Could it be that the other party wasn’t a student, but just wanted to come in for fun? They were a little worried about their points being confiscated by the referee.
Sun Wukong Boy didn’t know how to answer. He glanced at Su Jiu and saw her slowly walking over, her expression calming down. “Since we could enter, we are naturally students. What else could we be?”
Su Jiu’s claws slowly extended from beneath her black robe. She was waiting for the referee to reveal his true colors.
“You are students? You killed all the monsters in the vicinity, and other students are scattered around with nothing to do. Aren’t you disrupting the order?”
The shadowy referee scanned the surroundings, pointed at Mo Han Zhi, and snorted angrily, asking, “He says he’s a student. Do you guys know him?”
Looking at the furious referee, Mo Han Zhi was a little scared, but she still managed a strained smile and said, “They are behind us. The inspector also verified their identities, and they are qualified. They are definitely students.”
Hearing this, the shadowy referee frowned slightly, then pointed at the four from Journey to the West and said, “You four don’t have to take the exam anymore. All your scores are void. Follow me.”
Walking behind the referee, Su Jiu watched quietly. She didn’t want to mistake a good person for a bad one and signaled for the boy to test him.
Sun Wukong Boy chuckled and asked, “You’re disqualifying us from the exam just because we scored high and killed a lot? Isn’t that too childish?”
“Childish? Do you know that your actions are disrupting the examination order?” the shadowy referee sneered. As he spoke, he actually exuded an aura of a Battle General, and the surrounding withered grass was continuously pushed aside.
Although it seemed very weak to Su Jiu, belonging to the weakest tier of Battle Generals, it was still a Battle General level, and the expressions of those around them changed drastically.
Especially Mo Han Zhi and the others. They were barely Initial Stage Warriors and could not withstand such strong winds. Their bodies were buffeted, pushing them backward.
And this aura hit Sun Wukong Boy head-on. As a student of the Dragon Hunter University, he only took a step back, then looked at the other party with an uncertain expression.
According to his boss Su Jiu’s assessment, there was a ninety percent chance the other party was a member of the Ancient God Sect. He glanced at Su Jiu behind him and was not flustered. Then he narrowed his eyes and asked, “You’re in such a hurry to get rid of us, isn’t it because you, or rather, you people are planning something big? Mr. Cultist.”
The shadowy referee was about to retort a few more sentences, but upon hearing the word “cultist,” his body trembled slightly. His eyes narrowed, bloodshot, and he stared intently at the boy, saying coldly, “It seems you did this on purpose?”
Without waiting for the boy to retort, his body flashed white as he used his avatar. His hair shot upwards, and then he revealed a strange smile, “You dare to act as a hero with no Battle General strength?”
