Chapter 243: The Fourth Test [Part 1]

After he was kicked by Gen Xingming, Bel obviously recalled that there were specific places for specific topics because he let out a few laughs and kept quiet after he walked back . He couldn’t help but stare oddly at Teita though .

Cillin had no idea what was so strange about Teita’s identity, but he didn’t pursue it knowing that this wasn’t the right spot to ask . He would know when it was time to know .

Bel looked at Cillin’s five-man team and asked about the tests they went through earlier . Then, he turned around and asked Ulaganuo, “So Gaga, what do you think? Should we team up with them?”

Gaga…

Libero and the others turned towards Ulaganuo in unison . No one realized that he had such a funny nickname until now .

In fact he generally went by “Ula” in AF3, and “Ganuo” to a small set of close friends such as his royal relatives only . As for Bel and Gen Xingming, they just called him “Gaga” because they were best friends . Almost no one else got to call him that, and those who tried when they didn’t deserve it either ate a bullet or got beat up badly .

Thanks to Bel’s explanations, Cillin and his group finally learned what the fourth cooperative test was about .

The “cooperation” part of this test was between the examinees and the AF3 students . The mandatory number of people per team was between five to eight . Of course, there were no rules that forbad them from making up a team of AF3 students only or test examinees only .

That being said, most examinees and the AF3 students desired to work with each other . AF3 wished to borrow the examinees’ martial strength, and the examinees wished to learn the information that they lacked . After all, not only this test was a combination between their test and AF3’s test, the AF3 students had bigger numbers over them . It was an element they couldn’t ignore .

At the beginning, Bel and Gen Xingming were full of bitterness when they learned that they would be taking their test here . They spent entire days planning how they could pass the test . Cillin’s appearance boosted their confidence greatly, however .

To the examinees, this test was of the utmost importance . After all, this was the fourth test of the Five Tests of AF1 and the only test left after this was the face-to-face interview . There was no way they were going to drop the ball after coming so far .

While Bel and Cillin were conversing with each other, a familiar voice rang . “Eh? You guys know each other?!”

The gray cat immediately slid deeper into Cillin’s lap, pretended to be asleep and kept its ears wide open when it heard this voice . It hadn’t forgotten how Boa was beaten up so badly that it didn’t even dare throw a tantrum .

Libero and the others also shivered when they saw the young girl approaching towards them . What a coincidence .

Bel waved his hands in greeting when he saw her . “We’re full already, so go find someone else, okay?”

“Tch, did you really think I want to team up with you?!” The girl swept a glance across the group and paused her gaze on the gray cat for two seconds . During this two seconds, Cillin could feel the gray cat stiffening up clearly . It gradually relaxed only after the girl looked away .

Bel looked at Cillin in confusion after she left . “You guys know my sister?”

“So she’s your sister . She’s related to you by blood, right? No wonder I thought she looked somewhat  familiar,” Cillin said .

“Yeah, she is . My mother thinks the reason Kenancy’s the way she is is all because of me, but I’m telling you it’s all bullshit!” Bel complained .

The fact that both her children had grown in the exact opposite way she imagined them to grow had always been a sore point to the queen of Blazing Eagle . Back in those days, Bel - well never mind Bel for the moment - Kenancy was such a cute and sweet little pie, and after she grew up she was still quite pretty because she had excellent royal genes . She was once the sweetheart in the queen and every Blazing Eagle royal member’s hearts, but today she was anything but that . The animals in AF1 secretly called her Kenancy the King Kong because her strength was crazy huge and she often sought out the animals of AF1 for a fight . Boa was one of her unfortunate victims .

Cillin skipped past Bel’s complaints and said, “We met your sister during the previous test . ”

He briefly explained what happened at the time, but neither Ulaganuo nor Gen Xingming reacted much because they were used to it already .

“So she ran off the fight the animals again . No wonder that girl disappeared the moment we got here . ” Bel nodded .

The examiners didn’t give them much explanation about the fourth test; most of their knowledge came from the AF3 students; it was one of the main reasons the examinees were willing to accept AF3 students into their team . Of course, some people cared about the intel they held, and some people cared about the background they possessed . If it wasn’t for these reasons, who in their right minds would be willing to accept a pampered noble into their team?

Cillin’s team was already full, so they didn’t need to waste time on finding another team member . Bel, Gen Xingming and Ulaganuo explained to Cillin the things they needed to pay attention to during this test .

The testing ground of the fourth test was a small garden in AF1 not far away from the assembly spot . Of course, the “small garden” wasn’t nearly as simple as it sounded . There were a lot of traps and dangers lurking in this small garden, and the previous term students were going to be a lot more active than they were during the third test . It was also why the AF3 students were desperate to get an examinee or two in their team . Although these nobles led an arrogant and domineering life in the norm, they weren’t unaware of their own limits . It would be very difficult for them to slip through the AF1 and AF2 students’ watch alone .

While they were speaking to each other, a windy sound suddenly came from above .

A man was flapping his wings and causing dust on the ground to rise into the air . The winged man flew past the crowd’s heads before landing atop a handrail at the edge of the training ground and looking down on the crowd . He looked mighty impressive as he withdrew most of his wings behind his back .

“Yo, there are quite a lot of people this term!”

The gray cat climbed onto Cillin’s shoulder and looked up when it heard his voice . “Yo, isn’t he that someone from that day!”

The guy with the showy appearance was none other than Zanny, the AF1 student whom Cillin encountered on the rooftop .
