As the instructor's voice fell, the boy immediately shut up.
Seeing that everyone had quieted down, the instructor turned his gaze back to Su Mu.
"Sumu, how old are you?"
"Ten years old!"
Su Mu finally stopped crying. Su Xiaoxiao was afraid that he would cry again, so she answered for him directly.
The instructor frowned and turned to look at him: "I'm asking him."
"He's my brother." Su Xiaoxiao met her mentor's eyes. "My brother is timid, so I should be able to answer for him, right?"
Upon hearing this, displeasure clearly appeared in the instructor's eyes.
But when he thought about how cunning this little girl was, if he didn't agree to let her help answer the questions, she would start making an excuse that the academy had no clear regulations.
He had already wasted a lot of time on the two siblings and didn't want to waste any more time with them, so he nodded.
"Okay, then you answer for him."
"Thank you, Master!"
Su Xiaoxiao thanked him and helped Su Mu answer the questions.
When it was Su Wen's turn, the process went much smoother.
There are thousands of people who signed up.
The college mobilized all its instructors and teaching assistants, and it took a whole day to record the names of those who passed the initial test.
It was already evening when Su Xiaoxiao received the notice to enter the re-examination.
The re-examination notice only indicates the time of the re-examination, but does not specify the content of the re-examination.
She put the notice away and muttered quietly, "Does Canglong Academy like to keep things in suspense so much?"
"Canglong Academy has always been like this. The content of the re-examination will be announced on the day of the re-examination, and no one will be given the opportunity to prepare."
"What about that person today?"
Su Xiaoxiao looked at Luye.
Shikano choked on her words: "He...he might be talking nonsense!"
"No!" Su Xiaoxiao shook her head. "He was so sure. He must have received reliable information a long time ago. Someone in Canglong Academy is selling questions!"
"That's cheating!" Lu Ye frowned. "If that brat's predictions are true during tomorrow's retest, I'll expose him!"
"Do you have any evidence?"
"I don't!"
Luye sighed and became listless in an instant.
Canglong Academy is the most strict and requires evidence for everything.
No one would believe what he said just by looking at his mouth.
"Don't be discouraged. Let's just take it one step at a time! If tomorrow's really a team competition, we can just find a way to eliminate him!"
"Okay, take note of this. Since there's no evidence, let's enforce justice!"
Luye chuckled and immediately became energetic.
Su Xiaoxiao glanced at him and asked, "Are you still not going back to the inn tonight?"
"I...I'll go back right away!"
When Lu Ye thought of the suffering he had endured last night, he waved goodbye to Su Xiaoxiao and quickly left the refugee camp.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at the direction he left and shook her head.
Su Mu turned to look at Su Xiaoxiao, feeling a little heavy-hearted.
"Sister, do you think we... can we really enter Canglong Academy? Big brother..."
"Don't worry, second brother. If what that person said is true, and tomorrow's retest is a team competition, we can form a group of three. Even if we have to be eliminated, it will be three people at a time. And I'm confident that I can help you pass the retest together."
"Well, I believe my sister!"
At noon the next day, all those who passed the initial test came to the academy to wait.
Lu Ye and Su Xiaoxiao, siblings, stood together, while Mu Yansong stood alone in the corner.
The group waited for about a quarter of an hour before the instructor finally arrived.
"Everyone, yesterday's preliminary test has ended, but this does not mean that you are all qualified to enter Canglong Academy. The academy only recruits outstanding disciples. You still need to pass a round of tests before you can officially enter the academy and participate in the freshman ranking competition."
The instructor's voice slowly reached the ears of everyone present.
In an instant, everyone exploded.
"What? Why is there a ranking competition?"
"I thought that as long as I passed the semi-finals, I would be fine. I didn't expect that even if I got into the academy, I still had to participate in the competition!"
"Can I not participate?"
“You don’t have to participate!”
The instructor looked at the shorter boy who had spoken.
The short boy was delighted when he heard this: "Is it really possible not to participate?"
"The ranking competition is voluntary. Those who don't want to participate will be directly assigned to the worst class." The instructor glanced at him and said, "Besides, this matter is not what you should be concerned about right now. You should think more about how to pass the retest!"
"That's right! Some people haven't even passed the retest yet, and they're already thinking about the ranking tournament. Do you really think it's that easy to pass the retest?"
The young man raised his chin slightly, his eyes filled with disdain.
Luye got angry when he saw him like this.
If his mentor hadn't been there, he would have really wanted to rush forward and beat him up.
"Okay, let me first tell you about the rules of the re-examination. The re-examination is a team competition, with five people forming a team. You can form teams freely. I'll give you a quarter of an hour to form teams. Individuals who fail to form a team, or teams with less than five people, will be automatically eliminated. Start the timer!"
As the instructor's voice fell, everyone took a deep breath.
"Hiss, automatic elimination, this is too cruel!"
"No, I'm already fifteen. This is my last chance, I can't be eliminated!"
Everyone was very anxious.
More than a thousand students entered the retest.
Compared to their anxiety, the boy's reaction was very abnormal.
Four people quickly gathered around him.
"Fang Chengyu, you're really good! You even guessed the team competition!"
"When you told me that the re-examination would be a five-person team competition, I didn't believe it. I didn't expect it to be true!"
"You were foresighted enough to contact us yesterday. Otherwise, we would be just like them, blindly recruiting people to form a team."
"Yes, yes, it's all thanks to Chengyu that we were able to form a team so quickly!"
Fang Chengyu was very proud of being complimented by four people in turn.
Su Xiaoxiao has been paying attention to him since she learned that the re-examination was a team competition.
If what he predicted about the team competition came true, it was just a coincidence.
Then he formed a team of five people in an instant, which proved that he knew the content of the re-examination in advance.
As expected, someone leaked the exam questions in Canglong College.
"That kid is cheating!" Lu Ye clenched his fists angrily. "What should we do now? We already have four people on our team. Should we just pick anyone up?"
"No, I already have someone."
After saying that, Su Xiaoxiao withdrew her gaze, turned and walked towards the corner.
Mu Yansong stood there motionless. When someone came forward to pull him into the team, he didn't even bother to pay attention.
