"I was originally a wealthy family's young miss, but at fourteen, it was discovered I was the wrongly swapped fake phoenix. The true young miss was welcomed back, my foster parents abandone...
"Look, look, this bastard still doesn't know how to be gentle with women!" Principal Yin blew his beard and glared, cursing.
Others could only smile.
Principal Yin dared to point at Shang Shaoheng and call him a bastard because he was the vice-president of the First Military Academy and had been teaching Shang Shaoheng since he was a student at the First Military Academy. They didn't have the courage to do that.
Shang Shaoheng snorted lightly, too lazy to argue with the old man.
Someone nearby said, "So, Principal Yin is very optimistic about this candidate named Jiang Rong?"
Yin Hongwen looked at the girl on the surveillance screen and shook his head. "I just think she's very thoughtful, but judging by her performance so far, she hasn't actually appeared on stage to directly compete with others, so her strength is hard to say."
"Maybe she's just too lazy to fight these people, or maybe she's just using some tricks. We'll have to wait and see what happens next."
"Compared to this Jiang Rong, No. 41, who shined this year, is indeed quite formidable." The elderly man in a neat military uniform standing next to Yin Hongwen had a serious expression and was unsmiling. "It's just that there are some issues with their identity..."
"Hey, Old Xu, you're still so old-fashioned in this day and age." Yin Hongwen patted Xu Yan's shoulder and said, "Although this kid's nationality was previously in Country F, isn't he also half Country A? Now that he's willing to embrace the motherland, we should strongly support him."
Xu Yan: "But the problem is that this person is not just an ordinary F country citizen..."
Yin Hongwen said gently, "As long as you haven't committed any crime, the First Military Academy's doors are open to everyone. If 41's resume isn't clean enough, they'll naturally be screened out when the background check comes out. Old Xu, don't worry about it."
Xu Yan was never able to argue with Yin Hongwen, so he had to shut up.
"This number 13 is also quite interesting." Yin Hongwen asked someone to turn on another surveillance screen. A girl with long curly hair dyed burgundy was sitting on a tree branch admiring the moon.
"She simply got two points and then ignored the exam. In my opinion, she's not necessarily worse than No. 41."
Li Rui coughed lightly and said, "Principal Yin, she actually passed the entrance exam last year, but due to family problems, she was unable to come to school."
"Hmm?" Yin Hongwen asked doubtfully, "What happened at her home?"
"...Her name is Hua Mengtao, and she's from the Hua family." Li Rui's expression was cryptic: "So... you know."
When the Hua family was mentioned, even Yin Hongwen frowned. He stopped discussing the matter and looked at Shang Shaoheng: "Shaoheng, who do you prefer, No. 41 or No. 13?"
"They're all average." Shang Shaoheng glanced at the time on his watch. Most of the exam time had passed. The additional test would officially end at 1:59 am tonight. The candidates were already gathering at a safe place, and he had to pack up and go to be his own NPC in the exam room.
Yin Hongwen asked, "How come you're almost thirty and still so arrogant and look down on everyone?"
Shang Shaoheng raised his eyebrows: "Just telling the truth."
He stood up, picked up the coat that was draped over the chair, and said, "I have a mission, so I'm leaving first."
"Is there not one that you like?" Xu Yan asked.
Shang Shaoheng paused, hummed, and said lazily, "If you really want to pick the tallest among the short ones, then No. 99."
99 is Jiang Rong's number. This made everyone present stunned. Xu Yan asked, "Why?"
"No reason." Shang Shaoheng said calmly, "Get to know her better."
Everyone in the room watched him leave before Yin Hongwen turned to look at Xu Yan: "Old Xu, what did he mean by that?"
Xu Yan: "...How would I know?"
Li Rui: "Gentlemen, let me boldly translate. What Shang Ye meant is that all the candidates participating in this competition are rubbish. He looks down on everyone equally, but if he has to choose one, he would choose Jiang Rong."
"The reason... maybe it's because other things are recyclable and non-recyclable, while ginger paste is hazardous waste, so it's a bit more threatening."
Xu Yan: “.”
Yin Hongwen laughed and scolded: "This little bastard!"
…
Song Yanzhen watched Jiang Rong pick and choose among their pile of supplies, and finally found a small red trumpet.
It is the very common horn that fruit vendors use on their cars to hawk their wares.
When they saw this thing in the camp last night, Jiang Rong was overjoyed and immediately put it in her pocket. Song Yan was really puzzled as to what she could do with such a thing.
At this moment, he finally couldn't help it and asked, "Are you going to use this to curse them? Mental attacks may not be very effective."
Jiang Rong looked mysterious: "You don't understand, this is my secret weapon, it's very useful."
Song Yanzhen remembered that she had the same expression when she met Shou Qing before, and suddenly had a bad feeling.
Jiang Rong walked out of the tree house holding his trumpet, looked at the candidates outside who had almost recovered, and asked, "Who among you sings well? As long as it's not ear-piercing, it's all good."
Everyone looked at each other, and most of them stood up.
Jiang Rong looked at the remaining five people and said, "Those who can sing Two Tigers without missing a beat, please stand up."
Immediately, four of the five people stood up. The remaining burly man blushed and said awkwardly, "I, I'm really not very good at singing."
Jiang Rong nodded with great satisfaction and said, "Just stay with me and listen to my instructions."
You Chunxiao asked suspiciously, "What evil ideas are you planning again?"
Jiang Rong hooked her fingers and said, "Sister Chunxiao, come here, let me tell you about our next plan."
"...Who is your sister?" Even so, You Chunxiao still walked over. After hearing Jiang Rong's plan, she was stunned as if struck by lightning. She looked at Jiang Rong with an indescribable expression: "Are you crazy? How can this possibly work?"
"How can we know if we don't try?" Jiang Rong said with a smile, "Sister Chunxiao, do you trust me?"
You Chunxiao stared at her for two seconds, gritted his teeth and said, "I'd have to be crazy to agree to this."
Jiang Rong spread his hands: "Now you don't have any other choice, right?"
You Chunxiao struggled for a long time before finally saying, "Okay, I'll believe you this time."
Jiang Rong stretched out his hand: "Give me five!"
You Chunxiao high-fived her with a look of disdain. Jiang Rong said, "Then tell them what to do next. I need to go and give our Young Master Song some mental support."
As she finished speaking, an announcement suddenly came over the radio: "Attention all examinees! Attention all examinees! Supply Point No. 1 has been breached by examinee No. 41!"
Everyone's faces changed, and then the broadcast came on again: "Attention all candidates! Attention all candidates! Supply Point No. 2 has been breached by candidate No. 13!"
