93: Chapter 93 You don't want the other students to know, do you?

Just as the Holy Dragon Roar was about to hit those people, a black shadow intervened out of thin air.

The black shadow raised a hand and grabbed, fingers curling forward, instantly compressing a visible layer of black ripples in front of its palm.

Bang!!!

Lu Cheng's intimidating Holy Dragon Roar was crushed on the spot.

The light flames exploded.

Dragon flames scattered in all directions.

The entire cabin hummed from the shock; several seats in the front row were flipped away, and shattered metal fragments clattered onto the floor.

This is... a Hua Hai Realm existence!

The black shadow moved again, its entire body almost turning into a blurred line as it surged out from the scattered flames and instantly closed in on Lu Cheng.

Lu Cheng only had time to raise his arm.

Bang!

A terrifying force slammed into his chest and abdomen, causing his Dragon Scale Holy Armor to emit a dull thud. He was lifted off the ground, and the black shadow scooped him up with one hand, tucking him under its arm like a chick.

"Damn!"

Before Lu Cheng could even finish his curse, he was carried out of the resting cabin.

From the moment the person appeared, to crushing the Holy Dragon Roar, to kidnapping Lu Cheng, less than two seconds had passed.

Everyone in the cabin was stunned.

"Lu Cheng!!!"

Xia Xi screamed, her voice distorting.

She stood up abruptly from her seat, her eyes turning red instantly. Her chest heaved violently, the blood in her body surged crazily, and her aura grew increasingly intense!

The eyes of the surrounding Black Seed members flickered, fearing that this person might be just like the one before!

One person in front reacted extremely quickly, flashing in front of Xia Xi in an instant.

"Troublesome."

He muttered low, raised his hand, and delivered a precise knife-hand strike to the back of Xia Xi's neck.

Xia Xi's body trembled, the light in her eyes faded, and she collapsed softly.

"What are you doing!"

Qian Shuying's expression changed, and almost instinctively, she stepped forward, shielding Xia Xi.

Hum!

The Geng Metal Tiger Pattern instantly spread across her body.

One stripe.

Two stripes!

The golden tiger stripes lit up along her arms, shoulders, neck, and waist, a sharp golden glow covering her skin. Her aura surged, and the metal floor beneath her feet creaked under her weight.

She knew she couldn't win.

The people in front of her were all in the Hua Hai Realm.

But Xia Xi was right behind her!

She couldn't just watch her companion get hurt in front of her.

That Black Seed member glanced at her, his eyes devoid of emotion.

"You should rest for a while too."

As soon as the words fell.

He took a step forward.

Too fast.

Qian Shuying had just raised her hand, and before her punch was even fully thrown, the opponent's fist had already slammed into her abdomen.

Bang!

A muffled sound.

The Geng Metal Tiger Pattern on her body was scattered on the spot, golden light splashing everywhere. She groaned, staggered back two steps, and her face turned pale instantly.

Immediately after, the person raised his other hand, and a cloud of white mist with a pungent medicinal smell was waved directly around her nose.

Qian Shuying's pupils constricted. Just as she wanted to hold her breath, her mind grew heavy first.

"You..."

Her body swayed, her vision blurred rapidly, and finally, she collapsed straight down.

The surrounding students watched with hearts pounding wildly, not even daring to breathe.

Too strong.

The gap was despairingly large.

And Su Wan didn't show any emotion at all, still icy cold...

Hmm... She didn't feel any hostility from these six people... She already had a guess in her heart.

Soon, the remaining Black Seed members began to control the scene, pressing the remaining students back into their seats one by one and confiscating their weapons.

Someone tried to resist, but was kicked over the moment they stood up.

Some were so scared their faces turned pale and their hands were shaking.

The entire resting cabin was in chaos; crying, gasping, and screaming mixed together, the air filled with the smell of blood and burnt metal.

...

On the other side, in the airship control cabin.

Lu Cheng was tucked under an arm, dizzy from the bumping all the way, his nose filled with the smell of sweat and gunpowder on the other person.

Suddenly, he finally realized where the problem was; his talent hadn't triggered any warning from the moment the airship was hijacked until now...

Thud!

Lu Cheng was casually thrown onto the ground, his back going numb from the impact.

Before he could crawl up, several high-strength restraint straps swished around him, binding his hands and feet tightly, and tied him to the metal rack nearby.

Lu Cheng struggled twice, but couldn't move at all.

He raised his head, staring straight at the masked man who had kidnapped him.

This man was two meters tall, broad-shouldered and thick-backed, with a half-black mask on his face, revealing only a pair of eyes.

The lights in the control cabin were cold.

On the entire control console in front, blue data streams flashed constantly, and several people wearing Black Seed combat uniforms were walking back and forth.

Lu Cheng stared for two seconds, then suddenly spoke.

"You... wouldn't happen to be the uncle in charge of this operation, would you?"

The masked man's body stiffened abruptly.

The expression on Lu Cheng's face suddenly became colorful; the corners of his mouth curled up bit by bit, revealing three parts "hehe," three parts understanding, and four parts cunning.

"Oh~"

"So it really is you."

The masked man turned his head, his eyes turning fierce instantly.

"Don't know you."

"But you, kid, keep quiet, or else..."

He took two steps forward, looking down at Lu Cheng.

"I'll just kill you!"

Lu Cheng wasn't scared; he coughed, adjusted to a more comfortable position, and continued.

"Uncle, tell me~ what should we do if I let the other students know that this incident is actually a test for the academy's selection~"

For the last few words, he deliberately dragged out the tone.

The masked man's steps stopped abruptly.

The control cabin was silent for two seconds.

Two Black Seed members busy at the console nearby shook their shoulders slightly, clearly holding back laughter.

The masked man slowly turned his head to look at Lu Cheng.

This time, he couldn't be bothered to pretend, and his voice carried a hint of toothache.

"If I tie you here, won't that be fine?"

"Eh~ that's not right!"

Lu Cheng immediately replied, his tone earnest.

"Uncle, think about it carefully. I have to participate in the follow-up selection, right? If I suddenly pop up later, others will look and say, 'Hey? Wasn't this guy kidnapped by the Black Seed?' Wouldn't your plan be exposed on the spot?"

"Besides, if you really don't let me participate, where are you going to put me?"

Lu Cheng looked around the control cabin.

"You can't just leave me here forever, right? That would make the follow-up progress too slow."

"How about this, I'm not an unreasonable person."

"I can help you grade the students."

Instructor Yue Zhenhe: "..."

Instructor Yue Zhenhe looked at Lu Cheng, feeling a headache coming on. He hadn't expected such a monster in this selection...

That skill just now could cause devastating damage to the Hua Hai Realm. If he hadn't stepped in...

It's estimated that those people combined might not be enough to beat Lu Cheng.

Instructor Yue Zhenhe stared at him for a few seconds and finally spoke.

"Then tell me, what do you plan to do?"

Lu Cheng's eyes lit up, knowing there was a chance. He immediately lowered his voice, his whole person exuding a sneaky vibe.

"It's simple."

"Aren't I tied up by you right now? Later, find a suitable time and throw me back."

"Then I'll pretend I don't know anything, absolutely won't say a word, and honestly cooperate with you to complete this preliminary selection."

Instructor Yue Zhenhe sneered.

"You'll be that honest?"

"Look at what you're saying, I'm known for being honest and trustworthy."

Lu Cheng didn't blush or skip a beat, continuing to bluff.

"Besides, the fact that I could see through your disguise this time means there were flaws in your plan to begin with."

"If someone else sees through it later, that person might not be as easy to talk to as I am."

"What does this count as?"

"This counts as me helping the academy clear mines in advance and helping you improve the process."

He paused here, revealing a very reasonable smile.

"So, this isn't a condition."

"This is a reward."

The control cabin was quiet again.

The masked man stood there, silent for a good while.

Lu Cheng even suspected he saw the words "headache" on that mask.

After a long while, the other party squeezed two words through his teeth.

"You say."

Lu Cheng's spirits lifted.

"For this stage of the selection, just give me full marks."

"And then give me some academic credits."

"Don't worry, I will absolutely keep this matter to myself, no matter who asks."

The masked man stared at him.

"You've got quite an appetite, kid."

"Reasonable request, reasonable request." Lu Cheng said with a sincere face.

After this was said, an operator nearby finally couldn't hold it in and lowered his head to cough.

The masked man took a deep breath and raised his hand to press the badge on his chest.

"Avril."

The next second, a pink phantom was projected above the console.

Avril was still wearing her standard business smile.

"Instructor Yue Zhenhe, how can I help you?"

Instructor Yue Zhenhe said in a deep voice: "Record, special case handling."

"Student Lu Cheng saw through the simulated hijacking plan and made a high-intensity stress response at the first opportunity, performance... exceeding standards."

When he said the words "exceeding standards," his voice paused.

Avril blinked.

"Should additional point compensation be given?"

Instructor Yue Zhenhe glanced at Lu Cheng and closed his eyes.

"Yes."

"A total of one hundred points for the initial stage drill, directly added to his initial points."

"In addition, subsidize fifty academic credits."

Avril responded immediately.

"Recording complete. Please upload the specific details; it will be officially added after approval."

With a flash of light, Avril disappeared.

Lu Cheng was energized after hearing this.

"Can I ask, how much is one academic credit of our academy worth in Dragon Coins?"

Instructor Yue Zhenhe looked at him coldly.

"One hundred thousand."

Lu Cheng's breathing stopped for a moment.

Fifty academic credits.

Five million?!

His eyes were almost shining like light bulbs, the corners of his mouth curling up wildly.

Instructor Yue Zhenhe got angry just looking at his expression, walked up, and lifted him up.

"Stop laughing."

"Get back."

Lu Cheng was carried out, but his mood was flying high.

The academy is really rich!

Since!

The uncle has already given such good conditions, then I must act my part well!

As soon as Instructor Yue Zhenhe opened the resting cabin door, Lu Cheng took a deep breath and started shouting at the top of his lungs.

"You fucking bastard! If you have the guts, let me go!"

"I'll fight you to the death!!!"

"The Human Federation will not let you off!!!"

The voice was full of energy.

Everyone in the resting cabin was shocked by his shout and looked up in unison.

Instructor Yue Zhenhe's face turned black. Was this kid fucking scolding him?
