The slime let out a shrill laugh, its sharp voice piercing Zhu Yan so deeply that his very organs ached.
"Hahahahaha! But students, [West Mountain University] has already been lenient for your entrance exam, giving you one more chance."
Zhu Yan remembered.
The notice at the time was that students who did not participate in the opening exam could wait until the specified time to report.
He steadied his calves, which were shaking due to the trembling ground, grabbed the spray he had bought from the Toad, and sprayed himself thoroughly from top to bottom.
The slime's shrieking voice continued to echo from behind.
"So, welcome students, the [Opening Exam] begins now!"
"Children, it's time to eat!"
The cheers and eerie laughter of monsters suddenly filled the air.
Zhu Yan did not hesitate; he immediately broke into a wild sprint!
The ground rumbled and trembled as that incomplete pillar crushed over the main road behind Zhu Yan like a whirlwind.
With the wind carrying gravel and thin mist hitting his face, Zhu Yan dashed toward the dormitory building with all his might.
The playground behind him was already in total chaos. The players finally reacted, rushing toward the gate in sheer panic.
"Run!!"
"Holy shit, what is this? I didn't read the content of the [Opening Exam]!"
The relief of surviving a disaster had not yet fully settled before it morphed into terrifying wails.
People were crying and shouting, and the veteran players were clearly scared out of their wits by this sudden twist as well.
Specific time notice.
Was this actually how they notified them?!
"Didn't they say there would be a break?!"
"F*** your Carnival Paradise!"
Zhu Yan had already bypassed the dormitory building and rushed onto the small road where the [Frog Convenience Store] was located.
Through the glass, he saw the Toad standing steadily behind the counter.
The Toad's posture was so upright it seemed indifferent. Its giant mouth cracked into an expectant curve, drool dripping down continuously from within.
Its long scarlet tongue rolled in and out; it was clearly impatient for the food that was about to reach its mouth.
Zhu Yan slammed on the brakes, stopping exactly at the edge of the Toad's line of sight.
He felt his heart beating violently, unable to suppress the heavy sound of his breathing.
The Toad had dynamic vision. As a level 14 horror creature, its hearing shouldn't be bad either.
He had to think of a plan.
He couldn't let it notice him entering the door, and he needed enough time to calm his heartbeat and breathing.
Not far behind him, their dormitory building was being dismantled. One by one, rooms with snapping steel rebars flew and smashed into the pillar that was now dangerously close.
It was almost here.
Zhu Yan sprayed his whole body with the spray once more.
He took out a bottle of chili oil, loosened the cap, and with a mere thought, activated his ability [Telekinesis].
According to the moving speed of the pillar, in exactly six seconds, the [Frog Convenience Store] would be sucked onto it.
If he timed it right, just like this, applying a force to the top of the shelf from the side through the air...
Crash—
The moment a shelf collapsed, Zhu Yan sprinted toward the glass door.
He heard the Toad let out a strange cry. Its shit-yellow figure leaped up from behind the counter and rushed toward the messy floor.
Now!
Zhu Yan suddenly pushed down another section of shelves.
The Toad croaked angrily, standing amidst the mess and turning its head to look. Zhu Yan seized the opportunity, pushed the door open extremely fast and lightly, and telekinetically poured the chili oil in his hand into one of the Toad's nostrils.
"Ribbit?!"
The Toad's throat bulged in confusion.
The capsaicin irritated its nasal mucosa. Although it couldn't cause actual harm to it, the extremely choking chili smell still provoked it to yell in pure anger.
"Who—?! Where did this chili come from—Ouch!"
It screamed in shock, because under the effect of a massive force, the [Frog Convenience Store] was uprooted from the ground, emitting extremely loud sounds of concrete snapping and steel rebars cracking!
Zhu Yan felt his internal organs suddenly drop as he lost his balance, sliding backward along with a pile of shelves.
He agilely vaulted over the counter, avoided the splashing oden broth, and unscrewed the second bottle of chili oil.
The Toad was screaming only five meters away from him.
Zhu Yan huddled in the corner to maintain his balance and quickly poured the second bottle of chili oil onto the Toad's two eyes through the air!
"Damn chili!" the Toad roared hoarsely.
Oil is viscous.
This capsaicin couldn't deal any substantial damage to it at all, but the oil completely blurred its eyes, making it unable to see clearly.
Chili oil should have been sealed very tightly.
How did it happen that once the shelf fell and was sucked up by this damn building trunk, it poured exactly all over its nose and face?!
The Toad raised two sticky front claws and struggled to rub its two scarlet eyes.
Zhu Yan already had the third bottle of chili oil ready in his hand.
There was still one nostril left.
He had to ensure that the Toad truly couldn't smell anything at all!
Zhu Yan lunged forward, grabbing the counter with one hand, wanting to aim more accurately.
However, a huge impact came from the front, and inertia pulled his body, smashing him forward fiercely.
Bang!
Zhu Yan raised his forearm to block it and felt a burst of numbness.
Everything stopped—
The fallen shelves, carrying the Toad sitting in the pile of goods, suddenly smashed into the wall in front; outside the glass store door, a pitch-black corridor quickly took shape, and the lights snapped on.
A few seconds later, a dense pain began to spread from the back of his hand.
Zhu Yan bit open a bottle of [Universal Potion] and poured it on, conveniently dumping the third bottle of chili oil into the Toad's other nostril!
"Ahhhhh!!"
The Toad let out a series of screams that did not belong to a toad.
Zhu Yan shrank into the corner, making his breathing as light as possible.
A level 14 monster's hearing should be very good, right.
Now, he could finally steady his heartbeat and breathing.
He could only hope that those chili oils were really useful.
At least, to distract the Toad's attention!
"Damn thing!"
The Toad's throat bulged with rage. It jumped up and stomped on the messy goods on the floor to vent its anger, squealing and yelling furiously.
"Broken shelves! Why did they suddenly fall?! Broken chili oil! Where the f*** did this chili oil come from! My eyes!"
"My nose is full of this spicy smell! I hate this!"
Good.
Zhu Yan covered his mouth, nervously staring at the Toad that was cursing and jumping around.
This thing hadn't discovered any clues about him for the time being.
But where was the key fragment?
How was he supposed to find the key?
Zhu Yan squatted down and slowly felt his way into the drawer under the counter.
The clues given by the Human-Spider Supervisor said so.
The key fragment was on this floor.
However, with a floor this large, it wasn't necessarily in the [Frog Convenience Store].
If it wasn't...
Zhu Yan glanced at the corridor outside the door.
The light in the corridor was not bright, and the glass door reflected the messy images of the [Frog Convenience Store].
The drawer was empty, with only some scattered sundries and a few worthless ancient copper coins.
Could it be in the Toad's apron?
In case it wasn't here, where should he even start looking?

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
