Chapter 4

Li Mao could not figure it out. That guy’s score was only 50 a few minutes ago, so why was it 51 now?!

The other students were also a little suspicious. After all, even if Lu Xiao was the reincarnation of a prodigy, it was still a little ridiculous.

But the current atmosphere was not suitable for them to question.

“Teacher, this device must be faulty!”

However, Li Mao did not care about the atmosphere. Lu Xiao passing was worse than him failing.

He was the first to step forward and question the result.

In order to speed up Li Mao’s cultivation, his family had spent a lot of money and resources.

Now, he was actually defeated by Lu Xiao, who came from a normal family background.

He could not accept it!

With Li Mao standing up to question it, the students who were already suspicious echoed.

“It’s indeed strange. After all, the possibility of 50 suddenly rising to 51 is too low.”

“Even exquisite instruments have durability. I think the instrument might really be faulty.”

“Seconded, this instrument must be faulty!”

“It’s indeed unreasonable. Teacher, is this instrument really faulty?”

“I agree!”

Everyone shouted and the teacher’s face darkened.

It would have been something to be happy about.

In the end, someone came out to cause trouble out of jealousy.

If he wasn’t a teacher, he would have taught these brats a lesson long ago!

“Lu Xiao, do you dare to test again?!”

Li Mao stared coldly at Lu Xiao and questioned.

The surrounding students looked at Lu Xiao, waiting for his response.

“I’ve used up both free tests. How do you want me to test again?”

Lu Xiao spread his hands and rejected on the spot.

Li Mao was the kind of person that would be unreasonable when others were being reasonable.

It was best to either ignore such a person or slap him until he didn’t dare to jump out again.

As expected, Li Mao seemed to have grasped the key and began to provoke him crazily.

“Haha, everyone, look at how afraid he is!”

“He finally passed. He’s afraid that the device is really faulty.”

“It’ll be terrible if word gets out.”

Things were getting out of hand.

The teacher stood beside Lu Xiao and interrupted in time.

“Li Mao, are you done?!”

“With Lu Xiao’s family background, there’s no way he can take the third test. You know this better than anyone, right?”

Everyone in the class knew that Li Mao had an opinion about Lu Xiao.

The teacher was among them.

Except that things had never gotten out of hand.

So, he might as well treat it as a small grudge between the students.

Unexpectedly, Li Mao’s hostility towards Lu Xiao far exceeded his imagination.

The third test required a total of 30,000 yuan, which was equivalent to three years of their tuition fees!

The surrounding students knew this.

“If it were me, I wouldn’t take the test either. That’s 30,000 yuan!”

“Indeed, it’s better to spend the 30,000 yuan on anything else.”

“Li Mao has finally seized the opportunity.”

“The class representative is too aggressive. If I were Lu Xiao, I wouldn’t take another test. I’ve passed anyway.”

“Sometimes, Lu Xiao’s temper is too good. That’s why such a despicable person took advantage of him.”

“I heard… it seems to be a grudge that was formed when the class representative was elected back then.”

“I didn’t expect Li Mao to be such a petty person.”

“…”

The crowd murmured below.

Li Mao stubbornly gritted his teeth and said, “It’s only 30,000 yuan. I’ll pay for it!”

As he spoke, he took out a bank card from his pocket and slapped it on the podium.

“Lu Xiao, are you really afraid?”

“If you’re afraid, just say it. We’re all old classmates.”

Li Mao sneered and continued to speak. His intention to goad him was obvious.

The teacher grabbed Lu Xiao’s arm and shook his head gently.

“There’s no need to take the test again. Preparing for the martial arts exam is more important than anything else.”

“It’s alright, Teacher.”

Lu Xiao smiled and looked at Li Mao’s crazy face. He really didn’t know what to say.

Indeed, jealousy made people ugly.

“Li Mao, stop whining.”

“If you can’t accept that my combat strength is higher than yours, just say it. We won’t laugh at you.”

“I can take another test, but…”

“It’s so boring to invite me alone. There are so many students in the class who failed. Why don’t you invite them all?”

There were nearly 20 students in the class who did not pass.

It would cost almost 600,000 yuan!

It was equivalent to the money that an ordinary family could earn by working for ten years.

If anyone else heard this condition, they would probably have already started to retreat.

However, Li Mao gritted his teeth and clenched his fists tightly.

600,000 yuan.

This was not a small number. Even with his wealthy family background, it was almost his allowances for a year.

However, when the students who failed heard this news, their eyes lit up.

“F*ck, Lu Xiao’s a good brother!”

“If the instrument is really faulty… I still have a chance to become a Martial Artist!”

“Li Mao! Why have you stopped shouting so fiercely? Are you afraid?”

“Hahaha, Li Mao, hurry up and agree. Don’t dawdle like a woman.”

“Li Mao, look at how smug Lu Xiao is. If it were me, I wouldn’t be able to tolerate it.”

“Go for it! Li Mao!”

The pressure was already on Li Mao. The students who failed were quite envious of being able to take the test again for free.

Who wouldn’t be tempted by receiving 30,000 yuan for free?

This was Li Mao. If it were anyone else in the class, they would not have so much capital to squander.

Moreover, Lu Xiao could not be blamed. Li Mao was the one who was aggressive first.

Now, he had been completely cornered.

The embarrassed one became Li Mao.

Lu Xiao took advantage of the situation and looked at Li Mao playfully.

“Test! All of you can test again!”

“Isn’t it just 600,000 yuan? I have plenty of money!”

Li Mao, who had been silent for a while, finally couldn’t help it.

There was a million yuan in his bank card that he had originally planned to use to buy cultivation materials. He could not touch it at all.

But now the arrow was on the string and had to be fired.

Hearing this, the students who failed were even happier than Lu Xiao.

The students who passed could not hold back their laughter.

The entire situation had turned around too suddenly. Even the teacher did not expect such a development.

“Tsk tsk, as expected of someone with great ambition.”

“He’s really our role model.”

“Li Mao, I really think highly of you.”

Lu Xiao clapped his hands and chuckled.

The teacher looked at Li Mao and asked seriously with his bank card, “Are you sure you want to bear the cost of the entire class failing the test?”

“Of course! It’s just a small sum.”

Li Mao’s heart ached as he spoke.

That’s six hundred thousand!

It was a huge sum of money to him, but if 600,000 yuan could send Lu Xiao into the abyss again, it would be worth it!

“Sure.”

After receiving the reply, the teacher swiped the bank card back into the groove of the instrument.

A cold mechanical voice said, “Beep! Charged… 600,000 yuan.”
