There were those present who trusted Lin Xinghe, and naturally there were also candidates who didn’t trust her and couldn’t stand her. However, she had shown her ability, and those candidates who disliked her could only bear it inside.

Someone sneered and said, “The test prompt has just come out, and we still don’t know if this community is the final setting. Are you a proctor who knows the answer in advance? To the students who just follow others blindly, I advise you not to. You might get nothing and lose your life in the end.”

They slammed the door and left.

The two newcomers glanced at Lin Xinghe and the others and left.

Qi Qing did not join Lin Xinghe’s group.

He glanced at Xie Wuan and Jiuge. His eyes darkened slightly, and he left immediately.

Gradually, only Lin Xinghe’s team remained at the viewing site.

Lin Xinghe gave out tasks to the thirty-six students.

She asked them about their skills separately and then split them into two groups.

She said to the first group of students, “Your tasks are relatively trivial, no danger involved. Your main job is to go outside to collect any information related to this community, including about people and things. Note everything down, even if it is just a dog outside pooping on the lawn.”

Whether her inferences based on the mermaid leader’s words were correct could be verified one by one in this world.

If this were a fictional world, it must have a protagonist.

Regardless of how far the story had progressed, she must try to find the protagonist. There would always be clues.

In the first three exam rooms of hers, the exam questions were all related to villains, so there was a high possibility that there were villains in this community. Of course, it was not guaranteed.

Lin Xinghe thought from the school’s point of view. To deal with a student like her, they might give some unconventional exam questions. The best way to confuse her and the public’s attention was to make sure that there were no awakenings in the exam room.

Therefore, this examination room was not necessarily a regular examination room, and it was very likely that many inferences did not apply. What was certain was that as long as it was a novel world, there must be a protagonist.

She said to the second group of students, “Your mission may be a little dangerous. Please keep an eye on the two new freshmen and ensure your own safety. Also, watch Qi Qing and Lu Qin…”

Lin Xinghe paused for a while, and then named two other capable students.

She said, “You should work in pairs. Pay attention to what they do, and let me know if there is anything unusual.”

This was also her defense against the school’s actions.

In order to deal with her, the school had to give a difficult prompt and pit her against strong competitors.

She hadn’t figured out how the villain school screened the students, so the two talented newcomers were extremely suspicious. If the school could recruit students at will, it could arrange for some newcomers with outstanding abilities to eliminate the targets of the school.

This was the first; the second tactic was to start with people around her, such as Gu Taoyao. Gu Taoyao did not enter the competitive examination room and could be excluded; the third was to send an unassuming assassin. But with Fu Zhou, Jiuge, and Xie Wuan by her side, she had nothing to worry about.

Those neighbors wouldn’t be so easily dealt with at night.

She was unfamiliar with other competitors such as Qi Qing. They might also be the eyes and ears of the school. Although the probability was not high, in this case, it was better to be careful.

At this moment, in addition to the students at the school, there were also the teachers of the villain school and Principal Wang who were watching Lin Xinghe’s livestream. As Lin Xinghe thought, Principal Wang really worked hard on the competition and exam questions. This was a not-so-difficult or even a simple test question, and the students he bribed knew the answer the moment they entered the test room.

Principal Wang was not willing to let students like Lin Xinghe profit in the competitive examination room. His purpose was to eliminate Lin Xinghe quickly.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xinghe would have such an operation.

Principal Wang lowered his face and said coldly, “What’s going on? Which teacher arranged this exam room?”

A short female teacher stood up and said, “It…it was me.”

Principal Wang asked, “Did you tell them the answers to the exam questions?”

The female teacher said, “I did. In order not to make the other students suspicious, I let them go through the beginning of the process. They’ll go straight to the ghosts after nightfall, fulfill the ghosts’ wish, let the seeds of hell bloom, and they all know what the wishes are…”

The female teacher paused and said with an unnatural expression, “I didn’t expect Lin Xinghe to buy a house at the very beginning and to block other people with the house purchase policy. The world does not clearly state the house purchase policy. Lin Xinghe was from a similar setting, so she’s probably more familiar with these types of things.”

In fact, the female teacher really did not know about such small details.
