The meeting point for departure was exactly at the parking lot of the Mysterious International Student Art Development Center, right in front of the entrance where the lecture was held last night.
In other words, the parking lot filled with the 56E luxury cars of the successful senior alumni.
Su Bai couldn't help but suspect that gathering here was to let the pure junior schoolgirls participating in the camping trip intuitively witness the strength of the senior alumni once again... Oh wait, not pure.
How could truly pure girls flirt with these people...
It was nothing more than the service industry disguised as purity.
But then again, maybe the senior alumni just liked this type, and the junior schoolgirls were also enjoying it. After all, how should I put it, in today's job market, based on the average salary of college students in Jiangcheng, for some liberal arts graduates, instead of desperately competing for a job, it really is better to find a ready-made high-salary man and directly compete in marriage.
It's a case of one willing to hit and one willing to be hit.
Su Bai felt it was understandable. Including this new girl Xue Tao brought, Huang Ran, she was obviously after Xue Tao's family background. Anyone with a normal intellect could see this. Only Xue Tao himself probably felt that his personal charm was at work.
But still, even if it's faked, as long as both parties have professional ethics, they can have a good time. There isn't much truth in romance these days anyway.
On the other hand, the vibe between Chu Mingzhe and the landmine girl looked a bit strange.
Arriving at the crowded location, Chu Mingzhe kept comforting her, but with little effect. The landmine girl's emotional state was consistently poor. Su Bai figured this chick was probably the type to push her luck; the more Old Chu comforted her, the more she acted up, just like a child in a public place—the more the parent coaxes, the louder they cry.
Thank goodness we didn't team up with these people, thank goodness.
So Su Bai couldn't help but turn his gaze to the biggest amusement of the day.
Xue Tao + Normal University scheming girl vs. Liu Yuanyuan + show-off vice president of the outdoor association, do you know?
Ho ho ho, this is really a rare showdown.
Two electric buses were parked quietly by the side of the road. Seeing this, everyone found their respective teammates and prepared to board.
The vice president's figure was obviously taller and bigger than Xue Tao's.
This is very normal. After all, the average height of young people these days is generally higher than the older generation, and Xue Tao is considered short even among the older generation...
Being looked down upon by the senior, Xue Tao was very unhappy and immediately showed a resolute look in his eyes.
"Oh, I remember now, you're the senior who asked Yuanyuan out for dinner last time, nice to meet you." Xue Tao took the initiative to shake hands with the senior, smiling on his face but holding bad intentions, preparing to increase his grip strength when shaking hands to crush him.
"Haha, you're Yuanyuan's boyfriend, nice to meet you!" The senior emphasized the word "boyfriend," fully revealing his disdainful attitude.
It's a male competition right here.
The hands of the two fellow Daoists clasped together, both exerting all their strength.
To think they had the exact same idea.
However, both of them were rather weak. Even though they exerted force at the same time, the actual strength was just so-so. It was a mutual pecking between weaklings, hard to tell who was better.
Beside them, the atmosphere between Liu Yuanyuan and Huang Ran was also not very friendly.
It's really hard to be friendly!
On Liu Yuanyuan's side, although she was riding a donkey while looking for a horse, the horse hadn't landed yet, so the donkey still had to keep working. In fact, Liu Yuanyuan's ideal state in her heart was to have a foot in two boats.
As a result, Huang Ran suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
In terms of looks, she didn't lose to her... No, no, I, Liu Yuanyuan, have the temperament bonus of an intellectual, independent woman from a prestigious 985 university, so it's actually a tie, maybe even a slight win for Liu Yuanyuan.
But this Huang Ran was indeed flirty. In the dead of winter, she was wearing a pair of black silk pantyhose, and it wasn't even leggings, just relatively thin pantyhose.
"You're so amazing, being able to wear pantyhose in such cold weather. If it were me, I'd definitely freeze to death."
"Hahaha, it's alright..."
"My mom told me not to mess around just because I'm young and not afraid of the cold. When I get older and my knees are freezing and uncomfortable, and I can't walk, I'll regret it."
"Hehe, there are solutions for when you're older too. Right now, it's better to take advantage of youth and enjoy life." Huang Ran blinked. "I think Xue Tao should also enjoy life more. Look how hard he works at school usually, you still need to care about him more~"
You green tea bitch, are you telling me what to do??
"Oh, actually it's not that hard. His major is okay. If you don't fiercely compete for a postgraduate recommendation, just coping with the coursework is actually easier than liberal arts majors."
"Eh, really? In our subject mathematics major, there's a girl who wants to transfer to computer science. I see her running to the Jiangnan University lab every day, so busy, and she has to self-study a lot of things online."
"That's because she works hard. My Xue Tao doesn't need to work that hard. Sigh, just lying flat is fine, anyway, he has some capital."
"Ah hahaha..."
During the crossfire, they occasionally dragged Xue Tao into it, leaving the kid stunned.
No, sis, how did you just directly exclude me from the postgraduate recommendation?
I already said my midterm exam was a mess, that was an unplanned accident. This final exam, I, Brother Tao, am going to fiercely turn it around!
But he couldn't say this explicitly. Saying it out loud would expose the fact that he was (temporarily) a poor student, showing weakness in front of the senior.
Damn it, is this senior sick in the head?
Why is he staring at someone else's girlfriend trying to steal her!
Su Bai watched these four acting like it was a stage play from the side, calling it thrilling.
Quack! This is exactly what I wanted to see!
[Ding! A wonderful morning, watching the roommate's emotional tear-down drama, rewarded with 50,000 yuan in cash, and +5 to brain attributes!]
Buzz—
Su Bai felt a burst of clarity, his brain upgraded!
Looking at the system panel, right now, Su Bai's brain attribute had reached 95 points, on the verge of the 100-point mark of the first tier of humanity.
Feeling the current situation, even without using the system's indulgence compensation function, just hugging a textbook and studying hard, he might even get a perfect score.
In fact, the course difficulty at Jiangcheng University is not high.
At least compared to those prestigious 985 universities known for their "strict kung fu" and rigorous teaching, Jiangnan University is actually quite friendly.
So Su Bai always believed that Brother Tao's intelligence definitely had a problem...
Whether a student can get into a relatively good university actually has nothing to do with their performance in university.
The college entrance examination is a massive dose of repetitive training, mainly focusing on not making mistakes in the exam after being well-trained.
University is another mode. Every semester, there are several completely unfamiliar courses, requiring students to quickly master new knowledge.
Considering the students' actual learning curve, this "quickly" actually most likely refers to the week before the exam...
It's completely different from the abilities required for the college entrance examination.
Just like a runner and a weightlifter, the two are not interchangeable. You can force it and say they both belong to sports, but essentially they are vastly different.
ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force! When a rich kid hired assassins for a midnight ambush, aiming to break both of his legs, they instead ran headfirst into a monster—a human-shaped tyrannosaur, brimming with dragon-like vitality. With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
] [Lone Wolf, No Male Gaze] [Protagonist is pursued early on; extreme protagonist-stans, stay away!] The "Carnival Paradise" descends and slowly devours the real world in the form of a game. By chance, Zhu Yan awakens the talent [Roleplay], becoming one of the first beta players. He thought he could develop safely, but after clearing the first instance, he is branded by humanity as the chief culprit behind the game's spread—a traitorous villain. A villain? Who would ever... become one! He'll be the villain! From then on, Zhu Yan is not only a player but also a lackey for the Carnival Paradise. Between the straight path and the crooked path, he chooses the con. With his left hand, he dons the villain's mantle, staging scenes within instances, infuriating players who decry him as a despicable traitor, all while the game happily promotes him. With his right hand, he joins the non-human organization "Fangcun Mountain," which opposes the Carnival Paradise, transforming into a mysterious player who slaughters game bosses, earning cheers of "Long live the expert!" from fellow players. Gradually, Zhu Yan rises to become an S-rank human player in Fangcun Mountain's archives, while also being the Carnival Paradise's certified top game Boss. But when the final war erupts and both major factions place their hopes in him— Players tag his various aliases: "Experts, this offensive depends on you." The Carnival Paradise's supreme Boss throws an arm around his neck: "Bro, you're the iron, I'm the steel; you can't let me down again!"
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
