The Evil King's Favorite: The Princess Is Too Cruel

"Okay, stop messing around. It's almost time for us to go meet the first-year students." Mo Lintian said, with a nasty smile on his face.

Hearing this, others also showed a hint of interest on their faces.

"Oh, it's finally starting! I can't wait to see the wonderful expressions on those young faces. It must be very interesting, hahaha..." Xiao Muye laughed heartily, his tone full of schadenfreude.

Several invigilators walked towards the square together. Qi Runyu approached Mo Lintian and said mysteriously, "Lintian, there's a surprise in the square~"

Mo Lintian raised his eyebrows slightly, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. He asked calmly, "What surprise?"

Qi Runyu chuckled and said, "You'll know in a moment. I guarantee you'll be pleasantly surprised."

After saying that, he stopped talking and just looked at Mo Lintian with a smirk on his face, as if he was looking forward to his reaction.

Seeing Qi Runyu's face clearly waiting for a good show, Mo Lintian vaguely guessed something. Could it be...

Thinking of that possibility, a hint of expectation flashed in Mo Lintian's eyes, and his pace couldn't help but quicken.

Xie Yichen, Tang Jinan and Yang Youli looked at each other, guessed something, and a look of understanding appeared on their faces.

However, Xiao Muye and the other invigilators were confused and had no idea what Mo Lintian and Qi Runyu were talking about.

……

At the same time, the surprise that Qi Runyu mentioned, Su Qingning was standing quietly in the team of the Pharmacist Branch, next to her was Song Tian who was chattering happily.

"Wow, there are so many people!" Song Tian exclaimed sincerely. She moved closer to Su Qingning and whispered, "Qingning, it seems that the news you heard before is true."

When Song Tian first heard the news, she was still skeptical. After all, everyone has their own specialties, and the six branches teach different things. How can they take the exam together?

But today, all the freshmen from the six branches were brought to the square. It was obvious that they were going to be tested together. I just don’t know how the Imperial College plans to test them.

Just as the freshmen from the six branches were puzzled, a figure suddenly appeared on the high platform at the front of the square.

"Ah, the dean is here." Someone noticed the figure on the podium and recognized the person's identity. It was Qin Yanqing, the dean of the Imperial College.

Seeing the dean, the originally noisy square instantly became quiet, and all the freshmen's eyes were fixed on Qin Yanqing. In addition to respect, they were more excited and admiring.

The reason, of course, is that Qin Yanqing is the most powerful magician in the Longteng Empire.

Looking at the young and tender faces in the audience, Qin Yanqing's elegant face was filled with smiles.

"Hello, students. I am the dean of Imperial College, Qin Yanqing."

Dean Qin stood on the podium and introduced himself. Then he said with a smile, "First of all, congratulations on becoming a student of the Imperial Academy, and welcome to the Imperial Academy."

"Today, you have gathered here, and I believe you have already guessed what is going to happen next. Yes, you are about to take an entrance examination, and this examination will determine your life for the next year."

"However, this year, our Imperial College will change the format of the entrance examination."

Having said that, Qin Yanqing paused. He glanced at the freshmen in the audience and saw confused and puzzled expressions on their faces. A malicious smile slowly appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"This exam will be conducted in teams of five from each of the six branches. You will choose your partners. Once everyone has successfully formed a team, you will enter the secret realm and complete a seven-day survival elimination battle."

"Of course, to ensure a certain degree of fairness, all five members of a team cannot be from the same branch. There can only be a maximum of two members from the same branch. Also, each team must have a pharmacist or physician."

After saying this, Qin Yanqing looked at the already excited crowd below the stage and continued with a smile: "Okay, now you have two quarters of an hour to find your teammates."

As Qin Yanqing finished speaking, the square became noisy again, and all the freshmen began to take action, inviting classmates who caught their eye to become teammates.

Song Tian originally wanted to invite Su Qingning to join her in finding Luo Yimeng to form a team, but before she could open her mouth, she saw three figures rushing to Su Qingning at the fastest speed.

"Third sister, let's team up together!" Su Muxin invited anxiously, as if she was afraid that if she was a step slower, Su Qingning would be snatched away by others.

"Yes, sure." Su Qingning nodded without comment. They had already agreed before that they would team up together to take on missions at the Imperial Academy in the future. Now they were just adapting in advance.

After a while, Xiao Mufan rejected the invitations of others and walked over from the team of formation masters.

Seeing that their five-member team was already gathered, Song Tian had to give up the idea of ​​inviting Su Qingning and went to meet up with Luo Yimeng herself.

Two quarters of an hour passed quickly. Qin Yanqing saw that everyone had formed a team and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

"Okay, now that you've formed your teams, I'll continue explaining the rules of this entrance exam."

"From now on, each of your teams will be a competitor. Later, each of you will be given a special identity badge. Each identity badge represents one point. Once you enter the secret assessment realm, you must try your best to snatch identity badges from other teams to earn more points."

"If everyone's identity badges are stolen from a team, then all members of that team will be eliminated, and our invigilators will escort you out of the secret realm."

"Oh, right, there's one more thing I almost forgot to mention." Qin Yanqing's smile seemed to turn a little sinister as he thought of something. "Later, ten invigilators will enter the secret realm with you. They are not only invigilators, but they may also be hunters."

Hunter?

There was some commotion in the audience, and everyone had a puzzled expression on their face, as if they didn't understand what the dean meant by hunter.

Qin Yanqing smiled and said with a gloating look, "Hunter, it means that the invigilators are the hunters, and you are the prey."

"In the following assessment, you must not only guard against sneak attacks from other teams, but also be wary of capture by predators. As long as five members of your team are caught by the invigilator, you will be eliminated, even if your identity badges are still there."
