Chapter 1 A Mall in Sucheng

In a mall in Sucheng.

Ma Fei, Zuo You, and Zhao Ziyue stared at Yang Xiangdi across from them in astonishment.

Yang Xiangdi was currently stuffing a grilled chicken burger into his mouth.

"Qiao Yu, are you sure this handsome guy is Yang Xiangdi? I find it hard to believe!" Zuo You asked, covering her small mouth.

"Yeah, the change is too big. He's even more handsome than Ma Fei!" Zhao Ziyue nodded in agreement.

Only Ma Fei on the side remained silent with a dark face.

He had just cleared the Warrior class's exclusive dungeon, and Ma Fei had originally wanted to show off.

But he discovered that not only him, but the other four had also cleared their exclusive dungeons, and Yang Xiangdi had even become more handsome than him!

Yang Xiangdi, who originally didn't have much presence, had received hundreds of love letters in the past few days.

This made Ma Fei gnash his teeth secretly.

"What's the use of being good-looking? I still need to gain weight back quickly, otherwise I won't feel safe at all next time I enter the Otherworld," Yang Xiangdi mumbled incoherently with a burger in his mouth.

"Ah, if you could maintain this appearance, you wouldn't have to worry about girls not liking you," Zhao Ziyue shook her head regretfully.

"Humph! Red skeletons, appearances are just external manifestations. Myriad forms, all different. What's there to care about?"

Ma Fei snorted dismissively from the side.

"Yang Xiangdi, what level are you?"

"LV8."

Killing the python and the A-rank evaluation allowed Yang Xiangdi to level up three times in a row, reaching LV8.

"Oh~ LV8, not bad. Too bad I'm already LV10."

Ma Fei pretended to be nonchalant, constantly observing Qiao Yu's expression out of the corner of his eye, wanting to see shock on their faces.

However, he was quickly disappointed. His attempt to show off was a complete failure.

Zuo You and Zhao Ziyue were chatting quietly, Yang Xiangdi was eating desperately, and Qiao Yu was spacing out with his chin in his hand. No one paid attention to what he said at all.

"Cough cough!"

Ma Fei coughed twice, but still no one paid attention to him.

"Cough cough cough!"

He continued to cough forcefully, almost coughing up his lungs.

Yang Xiangdi considerately handed him a mask.

"Ma Fei, put it on. Go see a doctor early. If you need treatment, get treatment. If you need to be cremated, get cremated."

"You son of a..." Ma Fei almost died of anger. "Qiao Yu!"

"Huh? What's up?"

Qiao Yu turned his head slowly, he was just thinking about Bai Ze, who Xun Dong mentioned before his death.

"What level are you?" Ma Fei asked.

Qiao Yu looked at his stats panel.

"I'm LV10," Qiao Yu said after reading it.

"What? You're also LV10?" Ma Fei's pupils shrank, and he beat his chest, saying, "You deserve to die! How could you be LV10? You're too damned!"

The Warrior class's exclusive dungeon had far more monsters than the Mage class. Under normal circumstances, Warriors should level up faster than Mages in the early stages.

For example, Yang Xiangdi was two levels below him, but how did Qiao Yu manage to be the same level as him? Ma Fei didn't understand!

"Tell me, did you secretly use an experience cheat?" Ma Fei questioned.

"No, I just cleared it normally."

"Cut the crap! How could you be the same level as a swordsman by clearing it normally? Who would say they stink after licking their own butt? You definitely used a cheat!"

Ma Fei's chest rose and fell continuously, his spittle flying everywhere. He was just short of beating Qiao Yu on the spot.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, I used a cheat."

Qiao Yu shrugged. When someone suspects that your melon isn't ripe, there's no point in explaining.

"That's right, it makes sense if you used a cheat."

Ma Fei finally calmed down after hearing Qiao Yu admit it.

"By the way, Qiao Yu, are you still participating in the Otherworld College Entrance Examination?" Zuo You asked.

On Kaiji Star, the most important day of the year is the College Entrance Examination.

The College Entrance Examination means that both the real world and the Otherworld will once again select a group of geniuses.

Most of the students who are recommended to the Otherworld will also participate in the College Entrance Examination. They all have the same goal - to be the top scorer in the College Entrance Examination!

Becoming the top scorer in the College Entrance Examination brings both fame and fortune.

In addition to bringing glory to one's ancestors and enjoying the support and worship of everyone, there is also something most important to players!

Becoming the top scorer in the city's College Entrance Examination will be rewarded with a one-time A-rank item!

And all the top scorers in the city will continue to take the College Entrance Examination, and finally four unique top scorers will be selected from the four major professional classes!

These four top scorers in the College Entrance Examination will be rewarded with an S-rank item!

S-rank!

This is an irresistible temptation for any player!

At a critical moment, an S-rank item can completely reverse the situation and instantly determine the outcome.

"I don't think so. I want to go to the Otherworld to work part-time and grind some dungeons to earn some living expenses, otherwise I won't even be able to afford food when I go to Kyoto."

Facing this amazing temptation, Qiao Yu shook his head.

Although Kyoto University waived his tuition fees, he still had to find a way to earn living expenses himself.

Who knows how many monstrous geniuses will appear on the day of the Otherworld College Entrance Examination? Qiao Yu felt that his chances of winning the top scorer in the College Entrance Examination were too small.

Anyway, he's already been recommended, so instead of wasting time participating in the College Entrance Examination, it's better to find a way to earn some money to buy pork ribs.

"Is it that difficult to make money? Or I'll give you a few tips?" Ma Fei asked.

He still wanted Qiao Yu to participate in the College Entrance Examination. After all, it was also an opportunity.

But he was afraid that giving money directly would hurt Qiao Yu's self-esteem.

"Oh? Young Master Ma, tell us, we're all ears!"

Zuo You and the others were also interested. After all, Ma Fei was a genuine rich second generation, so he must know a lot of ways to make money. Who would嫌abandon the chance for more money?

"Cough cough!"

Ma Fei cleared his throat and said smugly.

"Money is especially easy to earn. There are so many flexible employment options now. For example, you can use your private car to pick up passengers, and you can rent out your idle house. Can't you earn money from these?"

Qiao Yu, Zuo You, Yang Xiangdi, Zhao Ziyue: ......

"Young people must learn to use their brains, understand?" Ma Fei admired his wit very much. He was indeed a small money-making genius.

"Master Ma Fei, I understand! Then where can I claim my private car and idle house?" Yang Xiangdi asked.

"Same question" x3

Ma Fei's face was filled with astonishment.

"You don't even have a house or a car? That's impossible! No matter how poor a person is, they can't be so poor that they don't even have these two things!"

"Well said, Ma Fei! What you said is no different from farting, and this fart is like it's thickened with starch! Especially thick!" Yang Xiangdi said.

"Forget it, I even share a bicycle. I shouldn't have believed that Ma Fei could say anything useful!"

Zhao Ziyue shook her head in disappointment.

"Young Master Ma, if you really feel sorry for us poor people, go pay the bill."
