“Director He, you don’t have to play tricks with me. I agree that what you say makes sense. However, there’s a difference between exposing my true abilities earlier and later.
“Also, the situation doesn’t permit me to do so. All the different factions are present during the university entrance exam. If I reveal my martial warrior identity at a time like this, too many people will know about it. I’ll definitely land myself in endless trouble,” Wang Teng continued.
Director He was disappointed. This fellow was difficult to satisfy. He couldn’t convince him at all.
Never mind. It looked like he had no affinity with a promotion!
Although he could announce this piece of news without his consent, it would definitely cause resentment in Wang Teng’s heart.
At that time, if Wang Teng turned against him, things would get ugly. He would not only lose his promotion, but he would also leave a bad impression in the hearts of the higher authorities. The loss outweighed the gain.
“But…” At this moment, Wang Teng’s attitude took a turn. “I accept this deal.”
Director He’s eyes turned wide open. He almost choked on his own saliva. Little brat, were you playing with me just now?
You’re really bold!
He squinted and glared at Wang Teng.
“Haha, don’t mind me. Let’s continue with the deal just now.” Wang Teng got a fright and laughed awkwardly.
“Hmph!” Director He took a deep breath and snorted. Then, he said, “I mean what I say. As long as you display the strength of a martial warrior and perform glamorously during the actual combat assessment, this star bone will be yours.”
“No problem. Deal.” Wang Teng stretched out his hand and wanted to take the star bone away from Director He.
However, the latter pulled his hand back and kept the star bone again.
“You want to take the reward before the result is out? You must be dreaming.” Director He pouted.
“If you don’t give it to me now, how will I know whether you will keep your word or not?” Wang Teng asked.
“I’m not someone who will eat my words,” Director He glared at him and replied.
“Who knows?” Wang Teng scorned.
Director He felt frustrated, but he couldn’t vent it anywhere. He took another deep breath and said, “Why don’t we sign an agreement then?”
Wang Teng was naturally happy to do it.
The two signed an agreement and wrote their names on the paper. Then, they left, each having their own thoughts.
Liu Wenshi couldn’t say anything throughout the entire process. In his heart, he was lamenting how outstanding the youngsters were nowadays. He was not only able to bargain with Director He, but he even made Director He suffer a little loss. Not everyone was able to do that.
Also, Wang Teng was actually a martial warrior!
When he went back, he must ask Yang Jian to hug this buddha’s leg tightly.
…
Wang Teng returned to the barracks. Yang Jian couldn’t control his curiosity and asked, “Young Master Wang, why did my uncle look for you?”
“What else can it be? He wants me to perform well and win glory for them,” Wang Teng said casually.
“Oh.”
“Alright, hurry up and sleep. We still have to wake up early tomorrow.”
Tomorrow was the actual combat assessment. Many examinees didn’t sleep well that night, as they were extremely agitated and worried. The death index seemed to be hanging above everyone’s head like the sword of Damocles.
A silent night.
The next day, in the early morning, the examinees woke up in the wee hours and finished their breakfast. They gathered in an empty field.
A huge unidentified flying object stopped in front of everyone.
“What is this?”
“It’s huge!”
“It looks like an airship.”
“What do you mean it looks like an airship? It is an airship. But… look, there are runes on it.”
…
The examinees started discussing among themselves. Liu Wenshi scolded them, “Alright, keep quiet.”
Second Lieutenant Luo placed his hand behind his back as he stood in front of the crowd. He waited for them to quieten down before speaking.
“Not bad, we have only interacted for a short time, but I’m very happy to know all of you. I hope that all of you will be able to pass your actual combat assessment and hope that everyone… will come back alive!”

After he finished, he saluted at the crowd.
The examinees couldn’t help but straightened their backs—
And salute back!
“Let’s end it here. Everyone, board the airship. We will be leaving immediately and heading to the venue of the actual combat assessment,” Second Lieutenant Luo continued.
He turned and walked up the airship first.
The student also lined up and followed after him.
When they entered the airship, the examinees looked around curiously. This was their first time in this kind of vehicle, so everyone found it exciting.
