Chapter 83 - 82: Close the Door and Release Bai Qi!
Chapter 83 - 82: Close the Door and Release Bai Qi!
Gao Cheng and the others looked at each other without a word, saying, “We don’t need it anymore since we’ve completed our tasks. You should keep it to do business.”
Bai Qi nodded, not surprised at all.
Gao Cheng and his friends were amongst the top performers in this examination. They had more than completed their tasks. Thus, he primarily targeted those performing in the middle and lower ranks from the start.
“Aren’t you afraid that President Qin and others will hold you accountable?”
Gao Cheng anxiously glanced at several examinees who had immediately completed their tasks with Snare after obtaining the resources, feeling somewhat worried.
Bai Qi waved his hand, saying, “Why should they hold me accountable? Is there any rule written on the admission ticket precluding trading in the actual combat examination?”
“Um, no such rule.”
Gao Cheng shook his head, falling silent.
There wasn’t much time left until the end of the examination, so there should be no problem.
“Attention all examinees. Due to certain reasons, the scores for this actual combat examination are void. The re-examination is tentatively scheduled for nine o’clock tomorrow morning. All examinees, please wait at your current location for teleportation.”
“Attention all examinees. Due to certain reasons, the scores for this actual combat examination are void. The re-examination is tentatively scheduled for nine o’clock tomorrow morning. All examinees, please wait at your current location for teleportation.”
“Attention all examinees. Due to certain reasons, the scores for this actual combat examination are void. The re-examination is tentatively scheduled for nine o’clock tomorrow morning. All examinees, please wait at your current location for teleportation.”
At this moment, a loud announcement echoed from the sky.
All examinees on Danggu Mountain were taken aback, and those, who were trading with Husky, were completely stunned on the spot.
Did Bai Qi mess up?
Bai Qi also realized something. Seeing the changing expressions of the examinees, he immediately packed away the Twin Pets and his tent into his Secret Realm Ring and quickly walked away.
“The wind is tight, time to go!”
The examination was invalidated. The people who had traded with him were indeed wronged.
If they stayed any longer, they were asking for trouble.
“This guy is still so unreliable…”
Watching Bai Qi quickly disappearing into the woods, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but sigh, then noticed that the surrounding examinees were inexplicably turning their attention to them.
“Are you guys close with Bai Qi?”
“Yes, I just heard that Bai Qi was giving them a discount.”
“Yes, yes, yes…”
Seeing the hostile gazes of a group of people, Lu Yuan quickly understood and directly summoned the Ghost Bone Giant Tiger to mount on.
“Quickly go! We have been set up by Bai Qi!”
Han Wei and Gao Cheng exchanged a glance, immediately summoned the Wind Demon Wolf to mount on, and instantly disappeared on the spot. Lu Yuan, who was the first to react, was still dumbfounded in his place.
“Incredibles, you are so disloyal!”
Lu Yuan yelled and chased after them in a hurry, but he hadn’t run far when he was targeted by a light beam and was directly teleported out of Danggu Mountain.
In no time, the bustling Danggu Mountain became deserted.
Main cabin of Snare.
Looking at the rapidly changing environment around him, Bai Qi knew he had been forcibly teleported by Snare and breathed a sigh of relief.
He almost thought he was going to die under those guys’ hands. He wondered if Gao Cheng and the others had managed to escape.
“Bai Qi, you’ve done quite well this time.”
Just as Bai Qi was about to catch his breath, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind him.
Bai Qi instantly felt a jolt of fear and turned his head stiffly. Seeing President Qin’s amiable smile, he immediately bowed at ninety degrees without any hesitation.
“President, I was wrong!”
Seeing Bai Qi admitting his guilt so quickly, President Qin couldn’t help but grin. He turned to Cui Ming and said, “You should talk. I’m afraid I can’t help but beat him if I speak.”
Cui Ming rolled his eyes at the mention of this, but still stepped forward, saying, “Bai Qi, because of some of your actions, the number of people who passed the examination this time far exceeded our expected number. Moreover, your actions have had a very negative impact on the examination. So after consulting with President Qin, we have decided to hold another actual combat examination.”
At this point, Cui Ming’s expression became somewhat strange, saying, “We have reported your previous behavior to the headquarters. The headquarters have decided to add ‘no trading between each other’ to the professional examination regulations.”
“So, congratulations on becoming the first candidate who changed the professional examination regulations single-handedly.”
Bai Qi smiled awkwardly at these words. He’d rather not have this kind of honor.
“Also, because your behavior has had adverse effects, the association has decided to take back the resources you obtained inside.”
They wanted to take it back? What about the rule that resources belonged to the examinees?!
Bai Qi tightly held the Secret Realm Ring while casting a pleading look at President Qin.
“Cough, cough. Let’s do this. The resources you found yourself can be disregarded, but hand over all the resources obtained from other people’s trades.”
President Qin proposed a compromise. After a short pause, Cui Ming also agreed to this method.
What could Bai Qi do if he disagreed?
“Alright, let’s put this issue to rest for now. We have another matter to discuss.”
President Qin stroked his beard and looked at Cui Ming, saying, “To avoid the repetition of the just happened incident, I suggest that Bai Qi not participate in the new round of actual combat examination.”
What the heck, Old Qin, you are messing with me!
Bai Qi’s face changed at these words, and he was about to argue with President Qin. However, after hearing the next sentence from President Qin, he was immediately overjoyed and nodded in agreement.
“Let him be the first.”
Cui Ming frowned, saying, “The professional examination has never had such a precedent. This is too unfair to others.”
President Qin chuckled and said to Bai Qi, “Fair? Alright, Bai Qi, you go back and prepare well. Remember to take care of the examinees from your city in the next round, understand?”
“Ah, no problem!”
Realizing what was asked of him, Bai Qi immediately pulled out a copy of the professional examination regulations to study, making Cui Ming nervous.
“Alright, let’s decide Bai Qi as the first in the third round examination.”
Upon hearing Cui Ming’s agreement, President Qin nodded in satisfaction and continued, “That being the case, let’s give the Mind Spring to Bai Qi first.” “Impossible! Our agreement was to decide based on the overall performance!” Without any hesitation, Cui Ming rejected President Qin’s suggestion. However, seeing President Qin’s roguish smile and Bai Qi’s eager expression, he reluctantly agreed again.
“I can give the Mind Spring now, but only to Bai Qi alone! Also, I will send someone to explore the Tower of Gratitude for one day.”
President Qin waved his hand and said, “One day, how is that enough? Just let Bai Qi soak for a few days, and you guys explore for a few days.”
This time, Cui Ming stood his ground and said, “No, one day at most. The Mind Spring is a treasure of Lingxi City. I can’t let Bai Qi soak for so long.”
“Deal!”
President Qin nodded and shook hands with Cui Ming.
He didn’t expect it to go so smoothly. Bai Qi’s meddling turned out to be quite useful!
He decided that if something like this ever happened again, he would just shut his door and let Bai Qi handle it!
