134 Forced To Leave
“Go on.” Qian Yu looked up at the top of the watchtower with a worried expression. “Go sound the alarm. Gather everyone in the square, this school assessment will end here!”
“Alright.” Luo Ying decisively climbed up to the top of the watchtower.
A few seconds later, a shrill alarm rang throughout the camp. “Let’s go!” she said.
Looking at the surrounding Shadow Wolves, Aloy decisively reached out to Li Ruoying who was in a sleeping bag. “For safety’s sake, let’s leave this place first.”
“Yes, please.” Li Ruoying poked her head out of the sleeping bag and uneasily placed her hand in Aloy’s.
…
“Everyone, gather at the center of the camp! Hurry up!”
Luo Ying stood in the square in the middle of the camp, shouting at the people in the surrounding tents.
“Hurry up and come here! The school assessment has ended! We’re leaving this place now!”
“The school assessment is over?”
People in pajamas gathered around Luo Ying in confusion.
“Isn’t there still six or seven days? Why are we leaving so early?”
“Oh no, I haven’t collected the passing score yet. What should I do when I go back?”
“That’s right! It’s only been a day, and I’ve only killed eight exotic beasts. Why are we leaving so early?!”
Luo Ying held a horn in her hand and looked around at the resentful crowd with a serious expression.
“Everyone, a powerful exotic beast attacked our camp tonight. In consideration of your safety, we’ve decided to end the examination early and send you back! From now on, everyone will follow us and leave this place!”
As soon as they heard this, a group of relaxed-looking Excelling students in the crowd led their powerful spirit beasts, carrying a bag full of beast heads, and followed Luo Ying, talking and laughing.
“Examiner, hurry up and send us back.”
The Excelling students behind Luo Ying could not wait to get out of this realm. They had been longing to go back.
Luo Ying turned her head slightly to assuage the Excelling students behind her. “You guys wait a little longer. The rest of you, hurry over! We’re going back together!”
However, even after Luo Ying said this, the people in front of her still stayed where they were and refused to move.
One of the students knelt in front of Luo Ying and begged in a low voice, “Examiner, can we go back later? Please, it’s only the first day. I was only looking for spirit fruits in the realm and didn’t even think about killing anything. If I go back now, I’ll definitely be doomed. Can you make an exception?”
Luo Ying raised her eyebrows and said with a stern face, “No! It’s too dangerous to stay here. The exotic beast outside is very fierce. It will tear you to pieces! You must have heard the shaking and the loud roar just now, right?”
The student nodded timidly.
“That exotic beast’s strength is far beyond us examiners. If that exotic beast breaks through the protective barrier and barges in, we examiners can barely protect ourselves. But that means we can’t be bothered with the lives of the students.”
Luo Ying looked at the student in front of her coldly and turned her head away heartlessly. “Everyone, quickly follow behind me before that exotic beast comes in! Let’s leave first. As for the score, I promise you that I’ll think of a way to help you after we leave!”
“But, examiner!” The student was almost crying, he threw himself on Luo Ying’s leg and wrapped around her like an octopus. “This is the third time I’m taking the exam. If I fail again, my family won’t be able to afford such expensive tuition anymore. I’ll have to quit school! I don’t need a day, just half a day, alright? Half a day will do!”
Luo Ying slapped his hand away in annoyance. “I said I’ll think of a way as soon as possible, alright?”
If it were not for Lear’s sudden attack, she would not have done this!
“Leave with me for now. Don’t think about anything else.”
The student let go of her in confusion and fell to the ground. He lowered his head and laughed in a low voice. “It’s over, it’s over…”
A sense of guilt surged in Luo Ying’s heart. She gritted her teeth and shook her head hard, throwing this feeling to the back of her mind.
‘I’ll definitely find a solution to that student’s problem! It’s more important to take them away now!’
“I don’t care what reasons you have, I can’t let you stay here. Everyone, leave with me!”
The bustling crowd became silent in an instant and followed Luo Ying one after another.
“Tsk, I thought the school assessment ended earlier for some stupid reason.”
Li Yuan, who was dressed in formal attire, tugged at the tie on his chest and helped the student, who was still sobbing on the ground, up.
Luo Ying frowned and looked at Li Yuan warily. “You, do you have anything to say about my decision?” At this time, she was most afraid of such rebellious attitudes.
“Naturally.” Li Yuan looked at Luo Ying disdainfully while sizing her up, then turned to face the people behind him. “Everyone, listen to me.”
He raised his arm and waved it at the crowd.
“We don’t need to go back at all! The exotic beast outside isn’t scary at all. We’ll just have to stay here until the exam is over. That slight vibration just now was only an illusion!”
Upon hearing this, the crowd immediately burst into an uproar. Luo Ying squinted her eyes and looked at Li Yuan in confusion.
‘Did he get kicked in the head by a spirit beast? How could he say such stupid words?’
“Everyone, let’s hurry up and leave before anything happens,” Luo Ying said to the students. But they were all gazing at Li Yuan.
He shrugged his shoulders and said to the people in front of him, “There’s no need to leave. The exotic beast outside is indeed very powerful, but our camp’s protective barrier is also very strong. We’re not afraid of its attack. Although there was a slight tremor just now, aren’t we still safe and sound?”
“But it’s just as the examiner said. A very dangerous exotic beast attacked us just now.” A weak voice slowly floated out from the crowd. “If we stay here, aren’t we putting our lives at stake?”
Hearing the different opinions, Li Yuan smiled and was sure he would win. “Alright then. Let me ask you, have you passed your school assessment yet?”
The voice was silent for more than ten seconds before it stammered an answer, “…N-not yet.”
Li Yuan turned around and looked at the people behind him. He was the first to raise his arm and spoke, impassioned. “Anyone here who hasn’t reached the passing mark, raise your hands!”
As soon as he finished speaking, most of the people present looked at each other in silence and raised their arms one after another.
Luo Ying frowned. The current students were much weaker than she had imagined.
