After that, Mu Zhongtian watched as the three ‘skived’ and sat behind the rubble. He did not know whether to laugh or cry. These three brats are truly cunning. But he had to admit that deciding on such a strategy in the maze was the aptest.

At the same time, the other nine teams were moving about in the maze looking for opponents as well as a way out. The others had defeated their own stone aspects as well. And there were even two teams that had collided.

Everyone hoped to perform well in the test. After training bitterly for three months, everyone wanted to dazzle and shine. Everyone was brimming with energy.

So the instant the two teams met, it was like heavenly tribulation and earthquakes. It immediately unfolded into an all-out battle that was intense and brilliant. The vice president watched the Elite Junior Class students and nodded, expressing his approval.

“Not bad.”

The vice president had a satisfied look on his face while standing closest to him was the teacher hailed as the demon king, Teacher Ji Hongbin.

Ji Hongbin’s mouth curled slightly upwards. “That’s nothing much. The good one should be this team.” While saying that, he pointed to one of the screens.

The vice president turned his gaze and saw the three youths seated behind the stone rubble talking leisurely and carefreely.

“Those three? Teacher Ji, tell me, in your opinion, why are they the good ones?”

Ji Hongbin replied indifferently, “They are able to remain calm in the face of their current situation and are pragmatic. They are using their brains to go through the test. To be able to comprehend the crux of the maze test and find loopholes. These intelligent students have better prospects compared to the rash and impetuous ones fighting now.”

“Oh? Then let us wait and see their results at the end.” The vice president was rather short and stout, jiggling as he laughed and replied. His laugh gave off a warm sensation like the spring wind.

But the teachers familiar with him knew that this was a man with daggers hidden beneath his smiles. If not for the grave violation he made in the past, he would never have become a teacher. and now…

Ji Hongbin glanced at the vice president. “Don’t you think that they are somewhat similar to you?”

The vice president squinted and replied with displeasure, “What are you insinuating?”

The smile on Ji Hongbin’s face changed slightly and a rare but weird smile appeared. “You fat fox, why bother with the act? I don’t believe that you can’t see it.”

“Shut up.” The vice president glared at him in slight anger.

Instead, Ji Hongbin grabbed the vice president by his shoulder. “Alright alright, you still can’t let it go?”

The vice president sighed. “How can I possibly let it go? But it’s much better now. At the beginning, all I could think about was to go back in time. I don’t know how many people I found that had invested so much hard work. A pity that I’ve offended others and can’t go back.”

Ji Hongbin gave a bitter laugh. “You call that offending others? You…”

“Alright alright. A real man doesn’t boast about his past achievements. Enough about this, enough.” The vice president interrupted his words.

Ji Hongbin pointed his finger at him and shook his head helplessly.

The fat fox vice president snorted.” Since they won’t allow me to return, I’ll let all of you see that I can still cause a ruckus in the school. Humph humph. This brat is good, what’s his name?” he pointed to Lan Xuanyu.

Mu Zhongtian immediately rushed forward and answered respectfully. “His name is Lan Xuanyu.”

“En, once the test is over, get him to find me.” The vice president squinted both his eyes as they gleamed with a faint light.

By his side, Ji Hongbin jumped in fright. “Hey fatty, can you not misguide the kid?”

The vice president gave a harmless expression as though he had been wrongly accused. “How is that possible? I am such an easy-going man.”

Ji Hongbin fumed. “You? Easy-going? You easy-going son-of-a…”

Right at that moment, the battle within the grounds had progressed like a wildfire.

The entire Maze size was controlled to allow the students to find opponents within half a day. At that moment, the students that had encountered other teams were engaged in brutal battles and fought to their hearts’ content. There were even three groups that had engaged in a chaotic battle.

On the other hand, Lan Xuanyu and his team continued to sit behind the rubble as they preserved their strengths.

Qian Lei whispered: “Listen, it seems that there’s a battle not far from us. I can even make out their voices. Shall we go out and take a look? They should be fighting against each other already, right?”

“Keep calm, don’t be impatient. We are not in a rush.” Lan Xuanyu replied.

They had heard footsteps close to them twice. This was due to the fact that there was a crossroad not far from them. The stone aspect had been assigned to protect the crossroad. After discovering their existence, the stone aspect had moved towards them.

Students that passed through the crossroads would move closer to them to take a look. Upon seeing the dead end, they would naturally stop and turn in another direction. No one could have imagined that the trio was hidden there.

“You’re really patient and can keep your composure!” Liu Feng could not help but praise.

After being strengthened by Lan Xuanyu, his fighting capabilities had improved by a large margin. He truly wanted to head out to battle against the others.

At their age, the majority of them thirsted to show off, especially for the students of the Elite Junior Class.

Lan Xuanyu shrugged. “It’s not that I’m patient, but there’s no point being rash. Have you forgotten? We are free from being eliminated in the first term. Of course, we can head out and take the initiative to fight against others. And with our standing, it shouldn’t be a problem. But, how do we estimate how many opponents we will meet? But waiting here is different. By waiting more, there is a higher chance for us to be champions. Since we will not be eliminated, we have to choose the best path for ourselves. It’s that simple!”

That’s right! It was just that simple.

Upon hearing his explanation, all the impatience within Qian Lei and Liu Feng’s heart disappeared. What Lan Xuanyu spoke was the truth. They were not at risk of being eliminated, why the need to be anxious for quick results?

Waiting for the best opportunity and fighting for the first place was the best choice.

Qian Lei’s Spiritual Power was stronger than Lan Xuanyu. He immediately understood upon hearing Xuanyu’s explanation. He frowned for a moment then laughed. “Then let them fight. When they’ve quietened down, we can go out and clear up the mess. That’s not too bad too!”

Lan Xuanyu smiled. “Rest, let’s rest.”

At that moment, Lu Qianxun, Ye Lingtong, and their third member, Chang Jianyi were advancing forward steadily. They had encountered and defeated another team and were looking for others.

Lu Qianxun took the vanguard with Ye Lingtong and Chang Jianyi slightly behind him at his sides.

Out of the three, Lu Qianxun and Ye Lingtong were offensive type Soul Masters, while Chang Jianyi was a control type Soul Master. This was a relatively strong combination. Especially at the lower ranks, the effects and feasibility of control type and auxiliary type Soul Masters are not as apparent. Having two offensive type Soul Masters was a strong advantage.

Lu Qianxun was the oldest in the class, being almost nine years old. But his Soul Power had reached the 19th rank. He had the potential to break through to the 20th rank and wield his second soul ring in the school term. He had the firm belief that he was the most outstanding in the class.

But he never expected that Lan Xuanyu was the only one to have obtained additional points in the previous test, twice, while had had nothing. Although he had the highest total score, the one in the lead and granted immunity to elimination for the term was instead Lan Xuanyu’s team.

Lu Qianxun did not hold Lan Xuanyu and his team in his eyes at all, because he never truly treated them as equals. But the unhappiness remained in his heart.

After entering the actual combat test, the stifling feeling remained in his heart. Regardless of anything, he aimed to achieve the highest result and become the champion.
