“Hey, hey, did you guys hear? Qiao Yu from the Mage Class One is going to take the college entrance exam!”

“Really? Then the mage department’s exam hall is going to be a scene of wailing. Who can compare to that freak!”

“Don’t even mention it. I’m in the mage department. God, please don’t let me run into Qiao Yu!”

“But Qiao Yu participating is a good thing! I’ve long disliked the faces of those guys from First and Second High Schools! Let Qiao Yu slap them in the face good and hard. See if they’ll still be so arrogant!”

Like wildfire, the news of Qiao Yu taking the college entrance exam spread throughout Fourth High School.

“Pass it on, Qiao Yu said he’s going to slap First High School in the face.”

“Pass it on, Qiao Yu said First High School has no face.”

“Pass it on, Qiao Yu said the people from First High School have no strength, they only rely on their faces.”

…

Zuo Yu and the others rushed over after hearing the news. Yang Xiangdi asked eagerly,

“Yu-ge, I heard you’re going to take on all the students from First High School by yourself? Count me in!”

Qiao Yu: “?”

When did I say something like that?

“Qiao Yu, you might really need to be careful on the day of the exam. On the Otherworld forum, the people from First High School are all saying they want to kill you…” Zuo Yu said.

Qiao Yu: “……”

It’s really a case of sitting in class while trouble comes from the sky.

He hadn’t done anything, yet he was taking the blame.

“It’s okay, Yu-ge, don’t be afraid! Brothers in the heart! When a brother’s in trouble, I disappear!”

Yang Xiangdi said as he ate a teriyaki chicken burger. His figure was steadily becoming rounder, and he would probably turn into a little fatty again in less than half a month.

“By the way, Qiao Yu, since you’re preparing to take the exam, why don’t you join us for another dungeon run while we have the countdown to the exam? It would be good to raise your experience a bit more.”

Zuo Yu suggested.

Almost all examinees would run another dungeon before the exam. This kind of dungeon was also known as a pre-exam sprint.

After all, the Apprentice Realm only needed a few dozen experience points to level up, and leveling up would give them a better chance of getting good results.

Qiao Yu was a little tempted, but after thinking about it, he still refused Zuo Yu.

On the one hand, he was already lv10 and at the peak of the Apprentice Realm. It was definitely impossible to break through to the Beginner level with just one dungeon.

On the other hand, he had more important things to do.

“No, you guys go. I have something to do.” Qiao Yu shook his head.

“Okay then…” Zuo Yu was clearly a little disappointed.

“Hmph! Qiao Yu, humility makes one improve, arrogance makes one fall behind! You’re not even running a pre-exam sprint dungeon, you just wait to fall behind!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Fei directly entered the Otherworld.

“Hey, don’t we need to tell the teacher?” Zhao Ziyue asked.

“Don’t worry, Teacher Xue will clean up our messes. If he doesn’t cover for us, I’ll expose his White Lotus obsession!”

Yang Xiangdi pulled Zuo Yu and Zhao Ziyue and disappeared on the spot.

After seeing Yang Xiangdi and the others off, Qiao Yu also left the school.

After going home to pack some things, Qiao Yu headed straight for Bihua Tianfu.

Bihua Tianfu was the most upscale luxury residential area in Su City. More than 80 percent of the wealthy people in Su City owned houses in Bihua Tianfu.

“Hello, sir, may I help you?”

Qiao Yu was stopped by the security guard at the gate as soon as he arrived. The security guard had a gentle smile on his face.

He didn’t look down on Qiao Yu just because he was dressed plainly.

In fact, security guards at the gates of such high-end residential areas didn’t dare to act snobbish at all.

After all, the people who could live in Bihua Tianfu were either rich or powerful, and definitely not someone a security guard could afford to offend.

If he kicked a steel plate one day, he would be fired in minutes.

“Um… I’m looking for someone, please wait a moment.”

Qiao Yu found someone through the Otherworld communication network.

“I’m at the gate of your residential area. The security guard won’t let me in. Can you come down and get me?”

“Okay!”

After a while, a tall and thin figure walked out of the residential area.

“Qiao Yu, long time no see!” The person revealed a kind smile.

“Long time no see, Zhuo Xinyuan!”

The person Qiao Yu was looking for was none other than Zhuo Xinyuan, one of the four young masters of Su City.

“Let’s go, let’s talk upstairs.”

Qiao Yu followed behind Zhuo Xinyuan, marveling as he walked. Bihua Tianfu was indeed a place where rich people lived.

As soon as he entered the residential area, lush, verdant bamboo trees were neatly arranged in two rows along the path. The green bamboo leaves gradually converged at the top, forming a round arched roof.

Zhuo Xinyuan’s house was hidden in the lush, tall bamboo forest.

“Tell me, Qiao Yu, what can I help you with?” Zhuo Xinyuan got straight to the point.

He was naturally very willing to befriend a genius like Qiao Yu, who could be recommended to Kyoto University.

“It’s not a big deal, I just want you to take a look at this piece of paper.”

Qiao Yu handed Zhuo Xinyuan the draft paper he found in his parents’ room. After searching in the Otherworld, he confirmed that the draft paper contained knowledge related to programming.

Qiao Yu immediately thought of Zhuo Xinyuan. He originally wanted to come and find Zhuo Xinyuan last time, but Yang Xiangdi dragged him to run an exclusive dungeon, which is why it was delayed until now.

“Oh?”

Zhuo Xinyuan took the draft paper. After just one glance, Zhuo Xinyuan’s entire body froze!

“This is… this is C language! This is a computer language from the ancient era!” Zhuo Xinyuan’s face couldn’t hide his excitement.

“But this language has been lost for a long time, and basically no one uses it now. Where did you get this draft paper?”

Zhuo Xinyuan tightly grabbed Qiao Yu’s arms, his knuckles even turning a little white.

“Don’t get so excited, I found it in my parents’ room.” Qiao Yu said.

Zhuo Xinyuan then realized that he had lost his composure a little, but he still couldn’t hide the excitement in his heart.

After a war on Kaiji Star in the ancient era, many things were lost, and the C language was one of them.

Legend had it that C language could combine the advantages of high-level languages and assembly languages, which was simply unimaginable today.

For a coding fanatic like Zhuo Xinyuan, discovering an ancient language from the ancient era was no different from a cultivator discovering a Great Emperor’s cultivation technique.

“Damn… found in your mom’s room… Qiao Yu, is there only this one? Are there any others?” Zhuo Xinyuan asked urgently.

“Yes! See if these are it.”

Qiao Yu took out all the draft paper from his parents’ desk in one go.

“Yes! That’s right, these are all long-lost C language!”

Zhuo Xinyuan was overjoyed, and after taking the draft paper, he became engrossed in it as if he were drunk.

These codes, which looked like heavenly scriptures to others, were even more enticing than a naked beauty to Zhuo Xinyuan!
