Rebirth in Another World: My Brother is an Intelligent Being

In the end, both Linghao and Li Xingchen faithfully registered their real names. After all, for them, one was using the name of their past life, while the other was simply the machine code given at creation. Even if someone wanted to check, it would be difficult to find any useful information.

After completing the registration process, the receptionist handed each of them a number plate and said, "This is your competition number. Please keep it safe. A dedicated robot guide will be there to take you to the dormitories."

Once you enter the dormitory, you are not allowed to leave until the end of the trial! Of course, if you still want to explore T City, it is totally fine to come back later."

Li Xingchen looked down at the number plate in his hand. His was number 68. He looked at the number zero, which was number 69.

The receptionist then added, "One more thing to note: the robots will perform a full-body scan. If you have any weapons, medicine, food, or other items with you, you can safely leave them with the robot guide for temporary storage. They will be returned to you after the trial is over."

Zero looked at Li Xingchen with a slightly inquiring look and asked softly, "Do you want to go shopping?"

Li Xingchen shook his head slightly. He wanted to go to the school first.

Not long after, a beautiful woman with a graceful figure and golden hair slowly approached. She greeted the two with a smile, "Hello, I'm Alice." The moment she spoke, Alice's pupils flashed, and the two of them immediately felt an invisible beam of light scanning them carefully from head to toe.

If Li Xingchen had not told them in advance that the blonde beauty in front of him was a robot, he would probably have mistakenly thought he had met an exotic and fashionable girl.

"The scan is complete, everything is normal. Please follow me, both of you." As soon as she finished speaking, Alice turned around and walked forward, acting as a guide.

Li Xingchen followed behind, observing Alice. Although her appearance was designed to be incredibly lifelike, she could still detect a slight unnaturalness in her speech—her voice was slightly stiff. While the inflection could be discerned, anyone with a discerning eye could tell it wasn't a real person. Furthermore, even her gait was somewhat mechanical, as if every step was controlled by a pre-programmed program.

Li Xingchen glanced at Zero secretly.

In comparison, how does Zero look artificial? Zero looks human in every way!

Li Xingchen praised Zero in his heart, then looked around.

There were two buildings at the gate where they had just registered. He had originally thought that these were the classrooms where they would be taking classes, but that was not the case. They walked inside for about ten minutes.

Along the way, the roadsides were lined with lush greenery, filled with a variety of trees. These tall, straight trees, with lush branches and leaves, displayed their tenacious vitality. The breeze rustled the leaves, creating a beautiful musical feast.

Before they knew it, they arrived at a mountain. The mountain gate was magnificent, intricately carved with patterns and mysterious runes. Standing before it, an ancient and mysterious aura washed over them.

At this time, Alice came forward and said to them with a smile: "This is a mountain forest outside Hanlin School, and it is also the place for this trial. Your dormitory building is not far ahead, please follow me." After that, Alice led them through the mountain gate and walked forward along a winding path.

In reality, Li Xingchen had already taken it all in. Not far from the mountain gate, a majestic building stood alone. A rough estimate suggested it was about thirty or forty stories high, resembling a towering behemoth from afar. Its unique exterior design and overall grandeur were truly breathtaking.

From a distance, the building looks a bit like a large luxury hotel, but it is different from ordinary hotels.

There didn't seem to be a traditional hotel lobby here. Instead, there was a transparent sightseeing elevator. Through the glass, they could see the scenery they had just passed by from another perspective.

The two followed Alice into the elevator. Alice gently pressed the number "10", and the elevator began to slowly climb upwards.

At this moment, Alice continued:

"Congratulations, both of you! The moment you stepped into this elevator, you've entered this trial. We estimate there will be over 1200 applicants this time, and we've done our best to place participants of the same age group on the same floor based on this estimate."

"Since we estimate the number of participants this year will be far greater than in previous years, you will need to rely on your own abilities to secure your own room on the first day of entering the building."

“Here are the rules of the house grabbing game:

First: The configuration of each room is different, and the number of people living in the room is determined by the number of beds. If the number of people living in the room exceeds the specified number, all people in the room will be eliminated collectively!

Second: Only rooms with beds are habitable.

Third: During the house-grabbing process, you are only allowed to injure people, not kill them, and you are not allowed to use sharp weapons. It is prohibited to bring weapons into the competition without permission. Once discovered, you will be directly disqualified.

Fourth: Please carefully check all items in the room."

With a ding, the elevator door on the other side slowly opened. Alice clasped her hands together and bowed deeply to the two of them. "You two have arrived on the tenth floor. Please carefully select the room that suits you best. I wish you both success in this trial and excellent results!"

Zero looked indifferent as he walked out of the elevator holding Li Xingchen's hand.

"Goodbye, both of you." The elevator door slowly closed.

Li Xingchen was a little nervous and held Zero's little hand. The corridor was empty at this time and looked particularly deserted. Perhaps it was because they entered earlier and other people participating in the trial had not come in yet.

The elevator was located in the middle of the corridor, with rooms on both sides. On the opposite wall was a sign saying "1001-1018 to the left, 1019-1036 to the right." This was their battlefield today.

They need to find a double room.

Number Zero squeezed Li Xingchen's little hand soothingly, then casually opened the door of the room closest to them. Immediately afterwards, a gasp that was obviously caused by being frightened came from inside.

They saw a little girl about their age, trembling all over and curled up in fear in the corner of the big bed.

It's a single room.

Zero retreated without hesitation and then closed the door.
