Patter…
The folder was clapped in front of Gu Lingyu.
[First place: Rampage Base’s Fifth Academy, Lin Bai. Points: 7,826 points!]
‘Rampage…
‘Lin Bai…’
“It’s him, it’s really him! He wasn’t eliminated! Haha! Let’s see who dares to look down on us Rampage martial artists in the future!”
Boom…
Gu Lingyu could no longer control himself, and the aura of a great martial master at the peak burst out unconsciously.
Seeing Gu Lingyu’s arrogance, the other leaders could not control their emotions anymore.
The entire meeting room was like a storm.
Although the chairs and benches were made of special materials, they could not withstand the pressure of so many terrifying auras and finally shattered.
In their opinion, it was impossible for the first place to be Lin Bai.
Putting aside whether his strength would suppress many geniuses, based on the points, it was impossible.
He had 2,361 points more than the second place.
The 10th place only had more or less 2,000 points!
It was too exaggerated. Where did Lin Bai get so many points from? It was completely impossible.
Moreover, looking at Gu Lingyu’s smug appearance.
Thinking that they would have to bow down to him for many years, everyone felt even more frustrated.
“President Pang, is there really no mistake? Is the first place really Lin Bai?” A trembling voice sounded from the crowd.
Everyone turned their burning gazes to Pang Shanhai, who was at the podium.
“It’s indeed him!”
Pang Shanhai gave a definite answer.
After thinking for a moment, he added, “The reason the points were sorted out so slowly this time was that the staff was carefully reviewing Lin Bai’s points.”
Hearing this, all the presidents let out a long sigh.
It was over. That kid was confirmed to be the number one in the camp.
How did he get first place?
“President Gu, congratulations!”
A congratulatory voice suddenly sounded in Gu Lingyu’s ear.
This voice shocked the presidents who were in a bad mood.
That was right!
Since the result had been decided, there was no need for them to offend Gu Lingyu, who would hold most of the cultivation resources in the next few years.
Even if they did not have a good relationship with him, they could not become enemies with him because of this.
“President Gu, congratulations! Your base is full of talents!”
“Congratulations! When will you have the time to come to our Taifeng Base to guide us, President Gu?”
“President Gu, I remember you said you needed a batch of Sea Beast Demonic hae thorn
More and more people gathered around Gu Lingyu.
Seeing that they could not squeeze in front of Gu Lingyu, some of the presidents who were further away from Gu Lingyu secretly circulated their cultivation techniques to squeeze the people in front out of the way.
Those weaker bases directly asked to give Gu Lingyu a gift.
At first, he was stunned for a moment. Then, as a president, he revealed his cunning side.
He was well-rounded, and he would chat enthusiastically with everyone. He did not neglect anyone.
Qi Heng, the president of Clear Sky Base’s Martial Arts Association, looked at the crowd with envy.
‘What the f*ck!
‘Old Gu is like a serf who has been reborn!
‘Look at his despicable face!
‘What a hypocrite. He’s refusing gifts from other people even though he wants them. What a hypocrite!
‘If only I was the one surrounded by those people!
‘I also want to be a hypocrite!’
Qi Heng cried internally…
Pang Shanhai’s heart trembled when he saw the name list.
When the list was shown on the big screen, he had specifically asked about the points.
At that time, he discovered that Lin Bail s points had soared because he had snatched Sun Qiang’s.
Sun Qiang had always been a promising seedling in the military.
Pang Shanhai knew Sun Qiang’s strength very well.
In the forest, Sun Qiang would not be kind enough to give all the points he had obtained to Lin Bai.
The only explanation was that Lin Bai had defeated Sun Qiang and taken away all his points.
Lin Bai, who only had 75.88 tons of fist power, could defeat Sun Qiang?
Could it be that he had some fortuitous encounter in the forest that allowed his strength to soar?
Su Zi was his teammate, but she was ranked 5th.
It seemed that it was time to observe Lin Bai properly.
Pang Shanhai pondered.
At the same time.
In the villa where Lin Bai was.
Su Zi sat on the sofa without a care for her image as a goddess.
Xu Kun sat beside Lin Bai and boasted about his ‘magnificent feat’ in the forest with an exaggerated expression.
“Brother Bai, don’t look at me just because I only have 500 points. I can guarantee that I’ll definitely stay this time!”
“Oh? How do you know that the minimum score for the entrance exam is 500 points?”
Lin Bai was curious.
“Tsk, is this very difficult? I told you, don’t always think about martial arts. Use your brain!” Xu Kun was extremely proud. Su Zi sat up and looked at Xu Kun curiously.
“Ahem”
Xu Kun cleared his throat and began to explain, “I did a lot of homework before entering the forest. I did a quick count. There are a total of 760 people who came with us, which is 30% more than the number of places given out by the training camp. After entering the forest, many people were carried out. Among them, there were a few who were stage 2 martial artists!”
“Wait! How did you know that those few were stage 2 martial artists?” Lin Bai subconsciously interrupted Xu Kun.
“Tsk, is that very difficult?”
Xu Kun curled his lips in disdain and pointed at his own head. “Weren’t there photos during the assessment? Don’t interrupt me, I haven’t even gotten to the main point yet!
“After some calculations, I roughly estimate that with the resources allocated to the training camp, there’ll be at most 200 people left. Based on the military’s habits, the points will be rounded up. 500 points will be the limit, and it can’t go any higher. If it went any higher, more than a dozen people would be eliminated. That wouldn’t be in line with the military’s habit of making the best use of resources.”
“Given your strength, how did you get 500 points?” Su Zi was curious.
“Is 500 points very difficult? As long as I’m careful enough, there are plenty of spiritual herbs in the forest. Those dangers have all been cleared by others. I’ll pick them up along the way and exchange them for points!”
Lin Bai and Su Zi looked at each other and saw disbelief in each other’s eyes.
If spiritual herbs were so easy to find, it would not be the current situation where there was a high price but no supply in the market.
Could it be that Xu Kun had awakened a Treasure-Seeking Mouse-like physique?
Xu Kun, who was still proud, saw the two people’s burning gazes on him, and his body subconsciously trembled.
“Lin Bai, don’t look at me like that. I’m not interested in men! ” “Get lost! Who would be interested in a fatty like you?t!”
Lin Bai speechlessly hammered Xu Kun.
“I hereby announce!”
Su Zi stood up and announced loudly, “Xu Kun, right? From now on, you’re part of our team. If you can become an official student of the training camp like you said, I’ll protect you here!”
Xu Kun was pleasantly surprised.
Lin Bai held his forehead and was speechless.
“Ding-dong. Attention, students. Attention, students. Please tidy up your equipment and gather in the field.. The students whose names have been called will head to another camp!’
