Chapter 1: Traveling Through Time
◎Exam◎
"Mech connection failed!"
"I failed the second test!"
"Warning, you only have three chances to take the exam. Failure will affect your admission to major military academies."
After resisting forty soul-destroying thunders, Shi Hanqiao's consciousness became confused and her head was buzzing, as if dozens of bees were buzzing around her ears.
"Candidate Shi Hanqiao, please confirm the information. The third test will begin after a ten-second countdown."
Shi Hanqiao opened her eyes, and based on the information projected on the light screen, she was sure that she was no longer in the world of cultivation.
[Name: Shi Hanqiao
Age: 17
Gender: Alpha/Female
Constitution: C
Mental strength: C
"The exam begins!"
"Spiritual connection..."
The strange invisible force tried to connect, and Shi Hanqiao was in a state of panic. Before it got close, he took the initiative to attack and strangle the opponent.
"Spiritual connection...successful"
"Bang--"
There was a loud bang, the light screen disappeared, the door hatch opened automatically, and the space began to tilt.
Shi Hanqiao fell out of the cockpit stiffly, his vision spinning. The people who were checking outside the mecha took two steps to the side the moment the hatch opened.
The pain hit her brain directly. Shi Hanqiao moved her wrist to control this new body. As she stood up, she integrated the memories of her original body and observed her surroundings.
She was in the indoor hall where dozens of mechas were standing side by side. Because of the loud noise, students waiting for exams in front of other mechas and people watching outside the cordon looked over.
Laugh, despise, hate...
The original owner was quite famous. Only when people knew him would their eyes be filled with malice, without exception.
Shi Hanqiao raised her eyebrows. She was a little curious about what the original owner had done to make them all hate her.
She stood up straight and calmly, and as expected, she saw several looks of disgust turning into displeasure.
She understood the meaning behind the change in his gaze, just as she understood what was in the other person's mind.
You, Shi Hanqiao, should have been groaning in pain, panicking, lowering your head and shrinking your body like a stray dog, showing your ugly face for them to laugh at. How could you dare to stand up calmly?
The noise was like that of thousands of bees, and curses and mocking words were hidden beneath the vague buzzing.
"Quiet."
Shi Hanqiao looked in the direction of the sound that was like the sound of a cold stream hitting rocks. His long golden hair was as bright as stars. The colorless light fell on the side of his face, adding a bit of coldness to his already distant facial features.
The noisy space suddenly quieted down, and the uniformly mocking faces showed a variety of colors, some jealous and unwilling, but mostly admiration and envy...
He should also be a famous person, but his reputation is completely different from that of the original owner, who was known as a waste.
The first thing Shi Hanqiao noticed was not his appearance and temperament, but his narrow and beautiful phoenix eyes.
His eyes were as calm as the surface of a cold pond, and when everyone was mocking and making fun of her, her calmness stood out.
"You've passed the test," Luo Wusheng paused for two seconds, then clicked on the [No Abnormality] option on the screen, "but you still have to pay compensation for damaging the test mecha."
"Pay now or go to the Academic Affairs Office yourself?"
Luo Wusheng moved his fingertips, and Shi Hanqiao saw the school's exclusive payment interface on the screen. Although it was a graduation exam, she had not officially graduated yet, and according to the student price, she needed to compensate the school 30 million star coins.
The difference between going to the Academic Affairs Office now and later is that the former allows for a one-time payment, while the latter will involve negotiating installment payments.
Thirty million star coins is not a small amount.
"Shi Hanqiao!" The voice came from far away. A man in a white uniform came over and first checked the test mecha. After confirming that it was really damaged, he put it back into the space necklace and released a brand new test mecha at the same time.
As soon as he arrived, he asked, "What did you bring with you?"
The originally quiet examination hall was noisy again, and the word "cheating" was almost mentioned.
As soon as they arrived, they started to make trouble. Shi Hanqiao was still recalling the past between the original owner and the other party, when Luo Wusheng spoke first, "Teacher Bai came really early. The security check was very quick."
Bai Xiangdi's back froze. He was so focused on suppressing Shi Hanqiao that he didn't notice that his words offended Luo Wusheng. He didn't speak up to defend Shi Hanqiao, but to imply that he was deliberately coming late. He even pulled up the flag of the security check office to threaten him not to talk nonsense.
Not to mention that the exam security is extremely strict and it is impossible for cheating to occur. Assuming that Shi Hanqiao really brought props into the examination room to cheat, Luo Wusheng, as the invigilator, would not be able to escape responsibility, and the security department would also be severely punished. Then he would be finished.
Luo Wusheng glanced at him calmly: "As a teacher, you should set an example. Speaking without evidence will affect others and yourself."
This is an ordinary middle school, but Bai Xiangdi knows Luo Wusheng's identity. Moreover, he is the only student who has served as an invigilator in the past ten years. As an Omega, he has been admitted in advance to the military command department of the four major military academies.
No matter what, he couldn't afford to offend Luo Wusheng, but he had offended him first, so he could only endure the ridicule and sarcasm.
"Right, Teacher Bai?" Luo Wusheng emphasized the pronunciation of the word 'Bai', which was both a warning and a way out.
Bai Xiangdi's expression changed, the corners of his mouth moved stiffly, and he walked down the stairs. "Student Luo is right. I was not considerate enough."
"Puff!"
The scoffing was particularly noticeable in the hall, which had fallen silent at some point, and it ignited Bai Xiangdi's nameless anger. He looked at the source of the laughter and changed the subject, "Shi Hanqiao, as an Alpha, you usually can't even connect to the lowest-level mecha. This time, you successfully connected, but ruined the exam mecha. The graduation exam affects the future of all students, and as a teacher, you should treat it with caution. Come with me to the Academic Affairs Office and explain the situation."
"No." Shi Hanqiao turned his wrist and swept the light screen in front of Luo Wusheng, and 30 million star coins were directly transferred to the school account.
Going to the Academic Affairs Office, when Luo Wusheng said it was normal compensation, but when Bai Xiangdi said it, it became a trap.
The results of her graduation exam were out. While it was true that she had destroyed the mecha, the invigilators had no objections, proving her score was valid. Bai Xiangdi then asked her to go to the Academic Affairs Office to explain the situation. If she went, it would appear to the onlookers that she was guilty.
Everyone will just think, if you are innocent, why do you need to explain?
Proving one's innocence will never prove one's innocence.
Whether in the past or now, Shi Hanqiao doesn't care about reputation. She just likes to see those who hate her get angry, just like Bai Xiangdi in front of her.
Bai Xiangdi's eyes widened: "Where did you get 30 million?!"
Her parents are both at the border, and their living expenses are regularly deposited into the machine housekeeper account. It is impossible for them to give her such a large sum of money to pay as you go.
Could it be the master family... No, it's impossible, the master family doesn't recognize her at all.
The students around them were also talking about it. They were just ordinary high school students. Let alone 30 million, they might not even be able to come up with 300,000.
"Teacher Bai, do you still care where the students' money comes from?" Shi Hanqiao curled his lips. "No matter where it comes from, my money has nothing to do with you, Teacher Bai."
Bai Xiangdi still looked concerned about his students. "You're still a student. You've given out such a large sum of money. As a teacher, I should naturally be concerned about its origins."
"Teacher Bai cares about you, Shi Hanqiao, don't be ungrateful!" A voice appeared in the crowd, and the source was unclear.
Most people present nodded, agreeing with the voice. Several silent, condemning glances focused on Shi Hanqiao. They waited for her to meekly apologize to Teacher Bai, once again displaying a silent, enduring expression.
But she suddenly laughed.
"I just don't know what's good for me. What's it to you?" Shi Hanqiao's eyes were sharp, locking onto the person who was speaking in the crowd. "Who are you? Who do you think you are? You live by the sea, and you're meddling in other people's affairs?"
Three questions in a row exposed the student who had been hiding in the crowd and dared to speak to everyone, and his hands at his sides were shaking.
The pressure of countless burning gazes frightened him, but what really made him feel breathless was Shi Hanqiao. Although she was smiling, her eyes were calm, as if she was looking at a dead object.
Only then did he remember that Shi Hanqiao was also an Alpha.
Alpha is at the top of the pyramid, with the exception of Shi Hanqiao. She is weak in both physical and mental strength, so weak that she can't even connect to the mecha. She is a waste.
Being an Alpha, yet being a waste, is her original sin.
He deserves to be laughed at by Alpha, Beta and even Omega, and is at the bottom of the food chain.
The Shi Hanqiao in front of him seemed different. The student moved his mouth, wanting to vent countless emotions, but in her calm eyes, he couldn't utter a word.
Bai Xiangdi ignored the strange feeling in his heart and shouted angrily, "Shi Hanqiao, are you trying to disrupt the exam?!"
"You were the one who started the fight right away. I was just defending myself while respecting the teacher and answering him. And you accused me of disrupting the exam room. Mr. Bai, you've already finished the conversation. What can a weak student like me say?"
"You!" Bai Xiangdi was unable to breathe properly after hearing her sarcastic tone. He wanted to refute her but couldn't find the right words.
"If you keep talking to me, the people behind me will not be able to take the exam." Shi Hanqiao put the hat of disrupting the order in the examination room back on him. Without waiting for his response, he walked straight to the exit with an arrogant and disdainful attitude.
When she passed by Luo Wusheng, she curled up the corners of her mouth and smiled at him. He still looked calm and there was not even a trace of her in his eyes.
Shi Hanqiao was not angry and did not even pause. She knew that he was not speaking out to defend her, but that did not stop her from being interested in him.
She walked to the door and looked back. Luo Wusheng still had that cold look on his face, supervising the students' exams in an orderly manner. He was much more pleasing to the eye than the group of old men from the Immortal Sect.
Deep in his soul, Hunyuan Bell couldn't help but remind him: [Don't forget the important things.]
[Don't worry, I will make you a perfect body.] Regarding the life-defining magical instrument that had been with him for many years, Shi Hanqiao's tone was rarely serious, but the seriousness only flashed by for a moment before he immediately returned to his nonchalant look.
[There's no rush for this, there's still plenty of time, and it'll only be fun if there's something I'm interested in.]
Shi Hanqiao retracted his gaze. Luo Wusheng’s eyes were very beautiful, but he wondered if they would look even better if they showed an expression other than calmness.
She is quite curious.
