"Thank you, and who is this gentleman?"

Seeing a chubby boy following behind her boyfriend, Lin Chuchu couldn't help but feel a little confused.

Before He Xie could speak, Qian Duole said with a smile, "Hello, hello, my name is Qian Duole, and I am He Xie's classmate."

Hello, Qian.

Lin Chuchu responded with a smile.

At this moment, He Xie looked at Qian Duole and introduced Lin Chuchu to him, saying, "This is my girlfriend, a freshman in the School of Pharmacology this year, named Lin Chuchu."

Oh, it's your girlfriend...

Upon hearing this, Qian Duole immediately began to flatter Lin Chuchu: "Goddess Lin is really beautiful. She looks much prettier in person than in the photos on the goddess list."

"No, no."

Lin Chuchu felt a little embarrassed by the praise, and with a slightly flushed face, she waved her hand in denial.

Qian Duole continued to praise her, saying that Goddess Lin was truly humble.

Lin Chuchu was shy and couldn't stand being praised. She blushed and hid behind He Xie, ignoring Qian Duole.

Qian Duole also knew that going too far was as bad as not going far enough, so he turned around and praised He Xie.

He Xie was speechless, then said, "It's about time, let's go in too."

And so, the three of them entered the entrance to the Demon Plant Forest.

As soon as they entered, they saw a pale blue light screen in front of them, blocking all the new students from entering.

Looking at the light screen in front of him, He Xie was immediately overwhelmed with a sense of familiarity.

This looks somewhat similar to the spirit-gathering array at the orphanage.

So, is this light screen also a formation?

It turns out that formations existed not only in ancient times, but also in modern times.

He Xie was lost in thought.

"Look over there, that freshman from the all-around class is coming in."

"Huh? How come that woman is with him?"

"Do these two know each other?"

Less than a hundred meters away, the group of senior students who came to work as safety officers to earn credits couldn't help but show a hint of confusion on their faces when they saw He Xie and Lin Chuchu come in together.

Just as they were wondering, several girls not far away looked at Lin Chuchu with envy and said:

"I'm so envious of Chuchu. Her boyfriend is the top student in the all-around class, handsome and good at fighting. I'm so jealous."

“Sometimes it really comes down to fate. If He Xie and I had gone to the same high school, I would be standing next to him now, not Chu Chu.”

"Linlin, you're really dreaming. Chuchu is a rich and beautiful woman. Not only does her family own a business, but she also made it onto the goddess list as soon as she entered. Where do you get the confidence to say that?"

"If you can't speak properly, then speak less!"

"......"

Hearing what these girls said, the older students all looked on with envy.

The men envied He Xie, and the women envied Lin Chuchu.

Although they are now sophomores and juniors, most of them are still single.

Seeing that some freshmen are already couples when they start school makes me feel a little unbalanced.

At this moment, the light screen covering the Demon Plant Forest disappeared.

The screen has disappeared!

"Charge!"

"I want to be number one!"

"......"

As soon as the light screen disappeared, all the new students rushed into the Demon Plant Forest.

They were afraid of falling behind others.

Unlike the others, He Xie wasn't in a hurry. He led Lin Chuchu and Qian Duole inside at a leisurely pace.

Once everyone had entered the Demon Plant Forest, the light screen that had just disappeared instantly rebuilt, enveloping the entire Demon Plant Forest.

Outside the Demon Plant Forest, the new students opened the maps that the school had just distributed and were analyzing the terrain.

He Xie couldn't help but laugh when he saw this.

Everyone was rushing to get in, but once inside, they all just stood there looking at the map. What was the point of all that scrambling to get in?

"Thank you, this map is too simplistic. It only shows the terrain of Mohu Lake and nothing else. At most, it can only be used to indicate the direction of the exit."

Lin Chuchu looked at the map in her hand, her beautiful eyebrows furrowing slightly.

Without looking at the map, He Xie activated all five senses and covered the entire Demon Plant Forest, seeing right through the supposedly perilous dense forest.

He knew exactly where the roads were, where the demonic plants were, and where the strongest and most abundant demonic plants were.

"Let's go, no need to look at the map, just follow me."

He Xie casually chose a direction and walked in, looking completely nonchalant and not taking the entrance exam seriously at all.

Seeing this, Lin Chuchu and Qian Duole immediately followed closely behind.

Since He Xie said there was no need to look at the map, then there was no need to look at it; the two had complete confidence in He Xie.

Some of the more capable freshmen, seeing that others had already taken the lead, immediately became restless.

They all put away their maps and chose what they thought was the most suitable direction to proceed.

Seeing this, the others also sprang into action.

Some opportunistic or rather laid-back freshmen choose to follow closely behind some strong students from a distance.

Students from extremely powerful academies such as the All-Round Class, the Qi and Blood Academy, the Spiritual Academy, and the Transplant Academy are all their targets.

The students from these colleges were allowed to follow them.

Thinking that if danger were to arise, these weaklings would be used as cannon fodder.

Apart from the students who chose to follow the strong, most of the remaining students chose to explore their own path.

It's not that they're particularly tough; rather, it's that choosing to explore on their own gives them a better chance of earning more test points and improving their ranking.

As for those students who choose to follow others and take shortcuts, although the path is smooth, they will get fewer points.

Or rather, it's simply gone.

Because they are following behind others, all the benefits go to those who clear the way, so what chance do these followers have?

On the other side, the senior students who served as safety officers also sprang into action.

There were as many as sixty people, who dispersed in groups of three to ensure that they could watch over the newborns in every direction.

"Come on, the three of us will catch up with that student from the all-around class."

A team of safety officers, consisting of two third-year students from the Transplantation Academy and one second-year student from the Qi and Blood Academy, quickly followed He Xie.

Among them, the second-year student from the Qi and Blood Academy with a buzz cut, taking advantage of the fact that they were still on the outskirts of the Demon Plant Forest and had not yet entered the surveillance range, quickly caught up with He Xie and deliberately disgusted him, saying:

"Junior brother, is this your girlfriend? She's quite pretty. I'm still single, how about I let you have her? I'll protect you from now on..."

"......Bang!"

No sooner had the crew-cut old man finished speaking than He Xie instantly transformed into a blur, grabbing his head with one hand and shoving him into the ground, burying half of his body.

After dealing with one person, He Xie quickly turned his attention to the other two.

The two senior students were a bit confused. They weren't on the same wavelength as the guy with the buzz cut, and they didn't expect him to suddenly rush up and provoke He Xie.

Of course, what's even more shocking is that the sophomore with a buzz cut was instantly outdone by a freshman!

Completely powerless to fight back, instantly killed!

That's absolutely terrifying!

Thinking this, one of the senior students, seeing He Xie rushing towards them, quickly spoke up to explain, "Classmate, we're not with him, it was all a misunderstanding..."

"......Bang!"

Before he could finish speaking, He Xie grabbed his head with one hand and shoved it into the ground.

The senior student next to him was so scared he peed his pants.

He was about to speak up and explain when, with a thud, he followed in his companion's footsteps.

"what happens?"

Others nearby, hearing the commotion, all turned to look.

When they saw that all three safety officers were half-buried in the ground, they were all dumbfounded.

Holy crap, what happened?
