Chapter 39: Choose to Keep a Low Profile

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Sunrise High School’s martial arts arena.

The large martial arts arena had a total of 2,000 seats. At this moment, it was packed to the rafters.

Whether it was the third-year students who had already awakened or the juniors who had yet to awaken, they were all here. Everyone’s faces were filled with excitement.

This was because the University of Draupcester’s admissions meeting, which was supposed to be held at the end of the semester every year, was actually held in advance!

This was undoubtedly one of the few interesting things in the students’ boring study life.

At this moment, the seats in front of the martial arts arena were already filled with people.

In addition to the 15 visiting members of the University of Draupcester, the leaders of Sunrise High School were also sitting here.

The two people in the middle were naturally Lin Huaiyuan and Wang Wenfeng.

At Wang Wenfeng’s signal, Lin Huaiyuan stood up. After exchanging some pleasantries, he began to talk about the rules of this enrollment examination.

“The rules today are very simple.”

“We will use the most common martial arts competition as the assessment standard.”

You have to draw lots, either from the candidates recommended by the school or those who signed up on their own, and then battle against them.”

“Of course, the support faculty students don’t have to worry about being at a disadvantage.”

“If the support faculty encounters a combat faculty, even if they don’t win, as long as they produce a miraculous effect or successfully resist, they can still obtain the recognition of the teachers.”

“Therefore…”

“Although those who lose in the battle will be eliminated, in the end, they will be judged based on their performance or strength.”

“Even if you lose in the first round, you still have a chance to have a guaranteed spot.”

“Of course, as long as you win the guaranteed spot, the University of Draupcester will give rewards as a form of encouragement.”

With that, Lin Huaiyuan looked at Wang Wenfeng.

Wang Wenfeng nodded, stood up, and said, “I hope that everyone will perform well today and let the University of Draupcester witness your true powers.”

“You may begin drawing lots.”

–

In the prep room, the other students were all rubbing their palms together, looking eager to try. They went to the front to draw lots after their names were called by the vice-principal.

Only Chen Feng, who was sitting in a corner, had a helpless expression on his face.

With his personality, he did not want to participate in such a competition and have to place himself in a position where everyone could see him.

Even though those who gave outstanding performance could receive the reward from the University of Draupcester, he still wanted to keep a low profile!

But he had no choice. After all, his master, Wang Wenfeng, had spoken.

“My good disciple, don’t say that I didn’t take care of you.”

“I’ve already discussed with that old fellow, Lin Huaiyuan, about the guaranteed spot.”

“However, he has a request. You have to participate in this admission test.”

Wang Wenfeng had made himself clear. Furthermore, he was doing this for his own good. Naturally, Chen Feng would not reject him.

Feeling helpless, Chen Feng could only agree.

Looking in the direction of the judging panel, Chen Feng sighed helplessly.

“Indeed,” he thought.

“They had already said that winning or losing was not the only criterion. As long as one performs well, they might be given a guaranteed spot too.”

To put it bluntly, even if one wanted to rig the results, he had to at least participate in the competition to get a ranking first.

Since that was the case, he would just take the admission test. However, Chen Feng decided that would not give it his all and lose the competition.

Of course, he could not lose too badly. In addition, he could not win his opponent through some stroke of luck.

It was best if no one remembered him after the test.

On the other side, Leng Ruzhi could not help but pay attention to Chen Feng’s every move.

Seeing that Chen Feng seemed to be caught in a difficult position, Leng Ruzhi could not help but walk over.

She sat beside Chen Feng and whispered to him, “Why are you here for the admission test, Chen Feng?”

“Of course, I don’t mean to question you. I just feel that…”

“You don’t look like you want to.”

Hearing that, Chen Feng helplessly made up a lie.

“The University of Draupcester heard that I have a special class and asked me to participate. What can I do?” he said.

“When the time comes, I’ll just go through the motions.”

Leng Ruzhi was relieved when she learned of Chen Feng’s attitude toward the test.

After all, she could tell that Chen Feng’s ability was probably not needing sleep at all. That was why he could study nonstop.

It was indeed a useless ability.

She was really concerned for Chen Feng, fearing that he would suffer a blow if he was too competitive.

“You don’t have to belittle yourself. Just do your best,” Leng Ruzhi encouraged.

“After all, Principal Lin also said that the evaluation criteria for this assessment are not purely based on winning or losing.”

“In short… you need to do right by yourself.”

With that, she returned to her seat and closed her eyes to prepare herself mentally for the test.

She had to prove herself in front of her elder sister, Leng Rushuang!

–

At the judges’ table.

Lin Huaiyuan leaned slightly toward Wang Wenfeng.

He whispered, “Wang, does our bet still count?”

Wang Wenfeng still had a kind smile on his face, but he replied to Lin Huaiyuan’s question in a low voice.

“Of course, it counts, but if you guess wrongly again, what do you intend to give me?”

“I’ll give you another piece of iron essence! Do you think I only have one?” said Lin Huaiyuan.

After saying this, Lin Huaiyuan felt that he had already invested a lot into the bet.

Unexpectedly, Wang Wenfeng did not agree.

“One piece of iron essence isn’t enough! At the very least, you should hand me two pieces of iron essence!” he said.

“You already know one wrong answer. Is one piece of iron essence appropriate?”

Hearing Wang Wenfeng’s words, Lin Huaiyuan cursed inwardly.

But he gritted his teeth and agreed.

After all, he had already lost a piece of iron essence. If he did not bring Wang Wenfeng’s ginseng home, he would have suffered a huge loss.

Moreover, Wang Wenfeng was right.

Since he had already eliminated a wrong answer, the probability of him getting it right would definitely increase exponentially.

This was not a loss!

While he was thinking, the vice-principal had already written the names of all the contestants in front of the observation board that had been set in the martial arts arena.

He announced loudly, “The first match.”

“Combat faculty, Lin Yu!”

“He will fight against combat faculty’s Li Qiang!”

“Students, please come on stage!”

In the prep room.

The two of them stood up at the same time and walked slowly toward the stage.

Lin Yu looked very confident. He gave Li Qiang an intense look, ready to fight at any time.

On the other hand, Li Qiang’s face was calm, as if he did not treat Lin Yu as his opponent at all.

When everyone saw this scene, they made their conclusions about it.

“Looks like Li Qiang is a little too confident. He’s so arrogant.”

“That’s normal. Their class’ limit is too obvious!”

“Li Qiang’s fire mage is indeed able to restrain Lin Yu’s Son of Forest, but this is if both sides are going all out. If Li Qiang underestimates his opponent, the outcome of this battle is still unknown.”

“In my opinion, he’s going to fail terribly this time.”

“You have a point.”

The vice-principal announced the start.

Lin Yu smiled, raised his hands, and shouted.

“Li Qiang, I’ll show you my true strength today!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yu was about to show off his skills when he saw Li Qiang— who was on the other side of the arena—disappear from his line of sight.

Before he could react, Lin Yu was grabbed by a huge force and smashed to the ground.

Bang!

Debris immediately flew out of the arena and smashed into the protective shield around the arena.

Lin Yu’s voice had completely disappeared, and he sank to the floor.

Instant kill!

On the other hand, Li Qiang stood calmly in the arena and looked at the vice president.

“First… First round.”

“Li Qiang wins!”

At this moment, everyone’s attention was on Li Qiang.

Only Chen Feng, who was in the corner, had a faint smile on his face.

“I, Chen Feng, will indeed choose to give up the reward and keep a low profile.”

“But I didn’t say that my Shadow Puppet will give up the reward too!” he thought.
