Chapter 55
"Damn it, isn't it just a bit of tax? I'll change it, sign it."
Zhao Chi looked at the new agreement again.
He nodded with satisfaction: "This is fine, I've already finished signing, take a look."
Seeing that Zhao Chi had finished signing, Cao Feng beamed with joy.
"Hahaha, I posted those pictures in the group on purpose. In reality, I still had 25 Centaur Archers hidden. Feeling like an idiot now?"
Cao Feng looked smug.
Shi Juan, Zheng He, and Kong Xiang all burst into laughter.
Zhao Chi was amused by their expressions: "Fine, fine, you've got a bit of intelligence after all. Keep it up."
Zhao Chi also smiled quite relaxed.
It was an expression of complete indifference.
Cao Feng, however, was somewhat surprised: "Why the hell are you laughing too? What are you laughing at?"
Zhao Chi laughed: "Stop looking for trouble, hurry back, Instructor Li will be here soon."
Cao Feng sneered: "Fine, let's see how you're laughing after the test today! Let's go!"
At his command, Cao Feng led Shi Juan and the others back to their seats.
Just then, Yang Xiong also entered the classroom.
The first thing he said upon seeing Zhao Chi was: "Zhao Chi, don't you dare sign an agreement with Cao Feng. As long as there's no agreement, even if his ranking is higher than yours, he can't force you to sign an employment agreement. At worst, we'll just curse him out in the group together. Going back on your word isn't a big deal."
Yang Xiong spoke in a very low voice.
Basically only loud enough for Zhao Chi to hear.
Zhao Chi could feel Yang Xiong's genuine concern.
This kind of concern between friends was something he had only experienced in his previous world.
Zhao Chi smiled at him, not telling him that he had already signed the agreement.
"Don't worry, how are things on your end?"
"Not bad, out of 40 orcs, 22 are male. Every single one is a muscle-man, they're too fierce."
It was clear that Yang Xiong was very satisfied with the orc race.
If he knew that all of Zhao Chi's women were just as fierce as orcs, he wondered what his expression would be.
Zhao Chi nodded: "Didn't your family give you anything?"
Yang Xiong sighed: "Not right now, they gave it all to my older brother and second brother. If my results are good after this test, I'll go ask for some."
His tone was a bit humble.
Zhao Chi smiled: "Good luck."
"Yeah, good luck!"
Yang Xiong walked to the back seats.
As more people arrived, the classroom became increasingly noisy.
Each class of Junior Lords had about 100 students, with nearly 1,000 in the entire grade.
Now that everyone was gathered together, the topics they had been discussing in the group were now being discussed directly.
There were three main topics.
One was the situation regarding this time's magical beasts, and another was the prizes.
The last one was the candidates for the rankings.
There were 5 people with the highest support.
Yuan Zhao from Junior Class 10.
Zhou Lue from Junior Class 9.
Hua Hua Yuyin from Junior Class 1.
Qi Xue from Junior Class 6.
Pei Pei Yuanxiu from Junior Class 5.
There were also a few people from other classes.
But they were undoubtedly the prominent figures of the same grade.
And Class 4... only had Cao Feng, and Lu Yi counted as half.
But both of them relied on their families; Lu Yi's family background was also quite good.
The rest of the people were hard to compare to those prominent figures.
Time quickly reached 8:30.
Lead Instructor Li Li Ruanyu walked in.
Her high heels clicked loudly against the floor.
The class went silent instantly, especially the male students.
Li Li Ruanyu wore light makeup today, looking gorgeous and moving.
She looked around and nodded:
"Alright, it seems everyone is here.
"It's 8:30 now, in a moment at 9 o'clock we will gather at the auditorium.
"The Dean will announce the prizes for this time, as well as reiterate the test rules.
"The format of this test remains unchanged, except the number of magical beasts released into your territories has become 10 batches, or you could say 10 levels.
"I won't emphasize the exam format again, but I want to emphasize safety one more time, listen carefully!
"If there is danger, do not try to be a hero, you must give up the test and request support from the instructors.
"In each of your territories, including myself, there are multiple instructors monitoring the exam simultaneously.
"Upon hearing a request for help, we will descend to support you immediately.
"Additionally, this is just the start-of-term test; although the rewards are slightly more generous, your lives are always the most important.
"Your initial heroes must not be easily killed or injured either.
"There is plenty of time in the future, no need to force this ranking and reward, do you understand?"
Although Li Li Ruanyu was beautiful, she was a qualified instructor.
She knew the priorities.
These students were 20-year-old youths, inevitably impulsive.
She still felt uneasy and emphasized these words she had already said many times.
"Understood!"
The students answered in unison.
Li Li Ruanyu nodded:
"Very good, but there is one more point.
"Every student's family background is different, and the family resources they can obtain are also different.
"But please keep one point in mind.
"Wealth, power, and luck are also a form of strength.
"They are no different from wisdom, judgment, personal ability, personal martial prowess, intuition, and experience; these all belong to strength.
"Many people always look down on students who rely on their homes or families.
"But this is one-sided.
"Having money, power, and luck is strength in itself.
"Everyone should not ignore it, much less look down on it, and do not be hostile toward it.
"Look at problems objectively; no matter what you think, objective facts always exist. Think these principles through clearly.
"Your goals are the same: make yourselves wealthy, make yourselves strong, and survive well.
"Utilize everything around you that can be utilized, but do not obscure your original heart; act according to the principles of kindness you believe in.
"I hope everyone can achieve good results.
"I won't say more, everyone go to the auditorium to gather."
The students stood up one after another and headed toward the auditorium.
In the teaching building, people were bustling.
The auditorium could be reached directly from the first floor.
