Zhao Yi's seat was towards the back.

Yang Linlin could only catch glimpses of him from the corner of her eye.

Upon learning that Zhao Yi was currently ranked first among the newcomers, she suddenly felt invigorated, as if she had seen hope!

Since the game started bringing in new players, the number of entrants over the past three months had reached hundreds of thousands, even millions!

To rise to the top among so many people, it couldn't be just luck!

He must have some extraordinary skills!

But from the corner of her eye, Zhao Yi, who was idly tossing an eraser, made Yang Linlin anxious again!

This guy... could he really not even handle high school math?

She looked down at her own test paper.

A system of quadratic equations.

Multiple choice.

Simpler than simple.

Did he really need to rely on tossing an eraser to decide on an answer?

She began to doubt Zhao Yi's intelligence.

Suddenly, the voice of the female teacher came from the podium.

"Stop looking around!"

Instantly, a bone-chilling cold enveloped all the students present!

The female teacher stood up.

A wave of pressure swept over, and all the students sat up straight in their seats!

Zhao Yi also stopped tossing the eraser in his hand.

He began to seriously calculate with his fingers.

One times one is one, one times two is two, three times seven is twenty-one, four times six is twenty-four...

Soon, he finished all the questions on the paper.

Unexpectedly smoothly.

And the female teacher, with her hands behind her back, stepped down from the podium, starting her patrol from the first seat on the right.

If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

Proctoring... quite common!

What wasn't common was that she was holding an axe stained with blood and flesh!

As she passed by Zhen Tao, she stopped.

The shadow of the axe fell right on Zhen Tao's test paper!

Zhen Tao kept his head down, gripping his pen tightly, cold sweat pouring down!

At this moment, he dared not look up.

His heart was nearly jumping out of his throat!

Did I... sit in the wrong seat?

That shouldn't be!

Only my pencil case is blue around here...

Please... Don't kill me!

He screamed internally, his spirit nearly leaving his body.

At this moment, his mental strength was depleting at a rate of two to three points per second!

It quickly dropped below 70!

***

In Yang Linlin's live streaming room:

: Zhen Tao is done for, at this rate, he won't last the first day.

: Most newcomers are like this, even Linlin Goddess's spirit is starting to drop... sigh, worried for my goddess!

: Motherfucker, is Zhao Yi a monster? His mental strength is as steady as an old dog, still at 101!

: I admire Zhao Yi's mental fortitude! But his math... I'm speechless!

: Haha, just came from Zhao Yi's live stream, I took a look at his paper, not a single question is right!

***

Zhen Tao's mental strength continued to plummet, quickly falling below 50!

At this point, he was already in a semi-conscious state.

And the female teacher standing beside him walked out of his range, causing Zhen Tao to collapse onto the desk, eyes vacant.

Then, she stopped by Zhao Yi's side.

The familiar pressure came again.

Zhao Yi even distinctly felt a hint of murderous intent.

He looked up.

Meeting the gaze of the female ghost.

The ferocity in her eyes was blocked by a grayish veil, even though it was filled with considerable malice, it still remained neutral.

Zhao Yi guessed that this was the rules at work.

Even if the female ghost really wanted to kill him, as long as Zhao Yi didn't trigger the female ghost's killing point, she couldn't make a move.

In a way, the female ghost was actually the safest ghost in this classroom.

But being safe now didn't necessarily mean being safe later.

Zhao Yi touched the scalpel in his hand.

Then put it away again.

Not sure if he could kill this female ghost yet, he decided to hold back for now.

"What are you looking at? It's exam time!

Hurry up and do your questions!"

The female ghost glared at Zhao Yi with her axe in hand, her words filled with killing intent!

Whether it was the audience in Yang Linlin's live stream or Zhao Yi's, everyone's hearts seemed to be in their throats!

The expression on the female ghost's face was becoming increasingly exaggerated!

But Zhao Yi kept staring at the female ghost, clicking his tongue.

The female ghost's face came closer, viciously saying:"What are you looking at? Is there something on my face?"

Zhao Yi replied:"No, I just think you look quite nice, teacher.

I just met a female ghost who was pushed off a building, her face was all smashed, yet she shamelessly appeared in front of me, leaving a huge trauma on my young heart!"

Hearing Zhao Yi compliment her looks, the female teacher's expression returned to its peak, showing a surprised and shy look.

"Really? Teacher really looks good? No way!

It's exam time! Stop trying to get close to me! Do your questions!"

She pressed one hand on Zhao Yi's head, forcing him to look at the test paper.

Her pale hand was cold, but indeed did not harm Zhao Yi.

But the student in front of Zhao Yi wasn't so lucky.

From the beginning, he was scared.

And now, his body was shaking like a sieve.

When the female ghost teacher passed by him, the axe in her hand was raised for the first time!

"No... teacher... give me one more chance... I beg you!

I promise... I promise next time I definitely won't..."

He suddenly knelt on the ground, hugging the female teacher's leg, crying bitterly.

His words stopped at the critical point.

The female ghost's axe had already swung down!

Splat!

Blood splattered!

A round head rolled to Zhao Yi's feet, eyes wide open, staring at Zhao Yi with resentment and unwillingness.

Zhao Yi slowly extended his leg.

Bang!

He kicked the head away.

Coincidentally, it landed on Zhen Tao's desk!

Zhen Tao, having just recovered from the fear given by the female teacher, looked up to see a bloody head staring back at him...

His eyes rolled back, and he fainted again.

Foaming at the mouth.

Everyone in the classroom looked at Zhao Yi in unison, the atmosphere indescribably eerie.

***

Live stream comments:

: Laughing to death, everyone is showing off, only Zhen Tao is getting beaten!

: Zhen Tao: Are you polite?

: Luckily Zhen Tao fainted, otherwise, with his mental strength continuing to drop, he might not even have the chance to die, directly becoming a dungeon monster!

***

The female ghost, holding the blood-stained axe, turned coldly to Zhao Yi.

Without hesitation, he handed his paper to her.

"Teacher Li, I'm done."

The female ghost took the paper Zhao Yi handed over, glanced at it, and said coldly:

"Get out! Disturb the exam again, and I'll cancel your exam qualification!"

Zhao Yi chuckled.

"Alright!"

He happily ran out of the classroom.

Once outside, the smile on Zhao Yi's face disappeared.

His eyes flickered.

"I think I understand a little now."
