Chapter 64: Practical Assessment (1/2)

The group had been walking for a while, but suddenly, they found themselves facing a metal door.

“Why is there no path ahead? How did this door get here?” Niu Wu exclaimed in shock.

At that moment, everyone was sweating profusely, as the temperature had risen to 42 degrees Celsius and was increasing by 2 degrees every minute.

The dark metal door loomed before them, like a massive mountain, weighing heavily on the three people, excluding Qi Ji.

“Did we do everything we were supposed to do before this?” the Blonde Girl asked, her voice laced with desperation.

The Short-haired girl’s face was also pale, and she felt that if they couldn’t pass this test, she would have no chance of getting into Saint Leiya Academy.

Niu Wu, however, turned his attention to Qi Ji, who seemed completely calm, as if he had nothing to worry about.

Niu Wu asked curiously, “Brother Qi, why aren’t you worried at all? Shouldn’t we try to struggle a bit more?”

“Wait,” Qi Ji said calmly.

Niu Wu’s face was filled with confusion, but he didn’t ask any further questions.

Three minutes later, the temperature inside the carriage had risen above 45 degrees Celsius.

Qi Ji and the others were starting to show signs of heat exhaustion, with their skin turning red and sweat dripping from their faces.

“Brother Qi, should we keep waiting? I feel like if we wait any longer, we’ll all be doomed,” Niu Wu said, his voice filled with despair.

The Blonde Girl and the Short-haired girl seemed to have lost hope in Qi Ji, and they were considering giving up.

However, Qi Ji just smiled and said, “Almost there.”

Suddenly, a loud cracking sound came from behind them.

Niu Wu and the two girls turned around to see that the ice gear Qi Ji had installed earlier had shattered.

The sealed metal door automatically opened, and the four of them stepped inside.

Qi Ji smiled and walked forward, his movements carefree.

Niu Wu and the two girls were stunned, their mouths hanging open in shock.

They had given up hope of passing the test, but Qi Ji had somehow managed to open the door.

“I get it now,” the Blonde Girl exclaimed. “The key to this test was using ice to create a transmission mechanism. Initially, the first door was closed, and the second door was open. But when the ice gear was installed, the mechanism moved, opening the first door and closing the second door. And when the ice melted due to the high temperature, the second door automatically opened, and the first door closed.”

Niu Wu’s face was filled with admiration. “That’s amazing, Brother Qi! We were thinking on the first level, but he was already on the fifth level.”

The Short-haired girl sighed. “I’m still having trouble believing it, but Big Brother is definitely the smartest person I’ve ever met. He’s like a genius among geniuses!”

“Where’s Brother Qi?” someone asked.
