Volume 1, Chapter 62: OK, KO

Just as the admissions officers of various universities were arguing fiercely to snap up the most suitable students, an untimely voice suddenly blared through the gymnasium loudspeakers.

"Jiang Buyue, I, Tang Xiangqin from Class 1, Grade 3, challenge you!"

As the voice echoed out, all eyes turned toward the podium.

Tang Xiangqin was quite popular in Jiangnan No. 2 High School, after all, he had once been the second-ranked student in the entire school.

Compared to years past, Aston's physique had clearly expanded quite a bit. If he continued to develop at this rate, he might well have the potential to rival Grand Duke Marcus.

Watching Ouyang Bing join the battlefield without a moment's hesitation, Chen Yu was stunned. He supported his chin in thought for a long time, then slapped his own thigh hard and cursed aloud, "Damn bastards, I'm trying to pick up girls and you lot come here to mess things up, truly courting death." With that, he charged at a burly man in black like an enraged wild bull.

Just as Wu Jie was pondering the future path of their brotherhood, the private chat channel rang once again.

She took a couple of involuntary steps forward, intending to walk toward Qiao Hanyan, but was intercepted halfway by Yan Qi.

The "younger sister jumping from a building" incident might seem ordinary on the surface, but its significance was profound. At least many officials benefited from it, while Chen Yu, who had fanned the flames, found himself plagued by worries because of it.

The two corpse slaves spread their ten fingers, their sharp nails gleaming with a cold light, and lunged fiercely toward Cang Jue.

Yet after waiting for what felt like an eternity, she still felt no pain at all, while the wolf that had collapsed upon her lay motionless like a slab of dead flesh.

"Have you ever cultivated inside?" asked the golden-patterned divine monkey. In fact, upon reaching this place, the golden-patterned divine monkey felt as though it had already reached its absolute limit. Its entire body trembled incessantly, and its golden fur had long since been scorched by the lightning's power, making it look exceptionally comical.

At eight-fifty-five, Shui Qing checked the roster. All the children were present—no, wait, one was still missing. She had been at the entrance since eight o'clock, so it was impossible for her to have missed anyone.

Without any suspense, Puhui agreed to the marriage. In fact, Puhui had known for a long time that Pukun had a secret crush on her, but having recently lost her husband, she had remained engulfed in grief and concealed her true feelings.

Ye Yaotiao did not understand why Han Shaoxun had suddenly become angry. Upon careful reflection, she felt she had done nothing wrong.

The other party's gaze made Meng Ruoping feel rather uncomfortable. Although displeased in her heart, she did not let it show on her face. This was the Starfall Tower restaurant, and they were the service staff of Starfall Tower; no matter what situation arose, they had to maintain a smile on their faces.

At this point, the magician Lu Fei looked somewhat annoyed, seemingly caught off guard by Cao Cao's choice of such a method.

While chatting with Jiang Yixin, Yi Feng subtly pried and learned some information about the Ethereal Realm from her.

The village was remote and tranquil. A few low, echoing barks of dogs added vivid vitality to the static scene, inevitably evoking the image of a mysterious earthly paradise.

Spinning through the air, spitting blood in all directions, Kezi landed head first. *Clack*, she heard a rather nice sound. Quite pleasing to the ear.

The main objective of this municipal cadre assembly was to study the guiding spirit of the central authorities, vigorously practice core socialist values, and figure out how to find a path to rapid economic growth for Fenghuang City based on its own conditions and against the grand backdrop of the Belt and Road Initiative.

Zhong Xin collapsed onto the ground, her face completely drained of color. Fortunately, Gao Jun had anticipated the monster's intention the moment it turned around and pushed her out of the vehicle in the nick of time, otherwise she would have already been reduced to a pulp of flesh.

There were over thirty households in the village, totaling more than a hundred and twenty people. The patriarch, Pu Jinwu, lived in the center of the village, while Puhui lived in the northeastern corner.

At this moment, magical beasts within a radius of a thousand meters of Si Qing instinctively sensed danger and frantically tried to escape, but a powerful aura had completely sealed off the area within that thousand-meter radius, rendering their frantic charging utterly futile.

Zongbi could not defeat Cao Guangbi to the north, and was choked off by Li Yanxian to the northwest, so he indeed had intentions of turning south to eye the Song Dynasty.

In another private compartment, Tang Feng and Zeng Neiwei were enjoying a luxurious milk bath in utter comfort.

After seeing Zhi De off, Chang Sihao sat alone in his room with a heavy chest, then walked out aimlessly, hoping to clear his mind.

"I..." Cao Zhenggong had single-mindedly intended to use the ghostly fiends incident to rope Ma Yunhui in as a free mercenary, never expecting that the slight slip of the tongue he made unintentionally would allow Ma Yunhui to capture the crucial crux of the entire matter so acutely.

Ouyang Shi and Yang Yingqi were not the only ones stirred into agitation by the immediate war situation; Chong Yansong, wandering along the northern bank of the Yellow River, several times wanted to recklessly charge back to Bianjing and fight Zongwang to the death once and for all. Meanwhile, the million soldiers and civilians of Bianliang were sinking deeper into despair under the oppression of the Jin troops, with military morale sluggish and everyone in constant fear for their own safety.

However, he could only entertain the thought, as the Black Pagoda's whereabouts were currently unknown and shrouded in mystery. Even if he truly found the Black Pagoda, it was uncertain whether he could manage to get those four strange stones into his possession. Given that they were used to suppress and seal the Black Pagoda, those four stones must undoubtedly be of extraordinary origin.

I had been staying at Uncle Liu's place for the past few days. Uncle Liu's house was truly beyond huge, estimated to be over four hundred square meters, located in a netherworld villa district. At least, that was what Uncle Liu called it; this villa district was entirely inhabited by netherworld underworld officers and their relatives.

Even the honest-as-elm-wood powerhouse of the Fierce Bear clan found it hard to conceal the excitement in his heart. Finally, they saw hope of returning to the continent. For a thousand years, the dream cherished by their entire race was about to be achieved, and some Orc powerhouses even had tears welling up in their eyes.

Data on the D3 heavy machine gun flashed rapidly through his mind. Before becoming a mercenary, he had thoroughly studied the specifications of various firearms, and now he inevitably felt a crushing pressure. Due to their small numbers, the mercenary squad carried no heavy weapons, putting them at a severe disadvantage when facing the enemy's heavy machine gun.

This letter was the first, and perhaps the only, person he had encountered since coming to this world who shared the exact same predicament as himself.
