Chapter 184 - 144 Extra Assessment! The Shocking Answer!
As the light dispersed, the figures of Xin Ruhuo, Xiao Tianfeng, and Quan Linfei gradually appeared.
Apart from them, a girl dressed in white briskly walked onto the stage.
She bowed respectfully to Xin Ruhuo and the others, then turned to address the numerous new professionists gathered below:
“Ladies and gentlemen, you are all the distinguished talents among the new professionists participating in the joint university entrance examination. Three individuals have been chosen from each state for an additional assessment in liberal arts!”
Having said that, the girl waved her hand and quickly another group of people emerged from the side passages.
Over fifty girls, all dressed in white skirts and veiled, held trays with document bags, pens, and other things.
Behind them were another fifty or so males.
Carrying tables and chairs, they quickly set up in the open space.
The girls placed the document bags and pens on the tables and then respectfully stepped back.
“Liberal arts assessment? What’s happening?”
“Where did the cultural subjects come from in the previous university entrance exams?”
“Is this a new rule?”
The fifty-plus new professionists chattered amongst themselves, but Zhou Xinyu and the others were well prepared and sat at the tables at the very front.
“Zheng Cheng, let’s join them.”
Li Zhen surveyed his surroundings and then suggested.
Unexpectedly, Zheng Cheng started, “These people are inferior.”
“What?”
“I’m saying, these young boys and girls prepping the exam area, they’re all Inferior Tribe!”
“How is it possible?”
Li Zhen exclaimed in surprise and then started closely examining the girls on both sides.
Soon, he noticed something wrong.
On the forehead of a few girls seemed to have scales as thin as cicada wings.
Some of the girls had slightly curly hair, and their pupils were a bit red.
There were even some girls who had small fangs protruding at the corners of their mouths.
Lowering his voice, Li Zhen said, “It indeed is the Inferior Tribe, but the mutations are somewhat minor.”
“What are our three seniors planning to do? Why did they summon so many Inferior Tribe members…”
“We’ll know soon.”
Zheng Cheng also went to take a seat, with Li Zhen and Zhu Chengyu hurriedly following him.
“May all the new professionists kindly take their seats…”
The girl on the stage continued to speak, and soon, the rest who had been hesitating also found their seats.
“The assessment is straightforward, it’s about the three questions within the document bags.”
“The duration of the exam is one hour, early submission is not allowed, and all new professionists are urged to answer promptly.”
As soon as she finished speaking, several figures at the front quickly ripped open their document bags and started checking the contents.
Zhou Xinyu, Ye Xishui, Zhao Wufeng, Dongfang Yang, and others.
All of them were from major families or pioneering families, and they had all been tipped off about the liberal arts examination.
However, no one knew exactly what was tested.
Zheng Cheng chose a seat in the middle. He didn’t open the folder but was observing the other new professionists.
Soon, some of those who opened their documents first were slightly dumbfounded, then instinctively looked towards those fifty or so half-inferior girls still standing at both sides.
Outrageous discussions immediately broke out.
“It turns out this is the content of the exam!”
“What are our three seniors trying to do? Shelter half-inferior humans?”
“And then this, the second question, is actually…”
“The third one is even more explosive!”
“Just three questions? How are we supposed to answer this…”
“We need to consider the intentions of our three seniors…”
Hearing the murmurs around him and then glancing at the half-Inferior girls standing around, Zheng Cheng quickly figured out the content of the assessment.
On stage, the girl’s voice was shaking slightly, but she gritted her teeth and said, “New professionists, please do not whisper amongst yourselves, and get to answering the questions…”
At her words, Zheng Cheng opened his folder.
It was light and thin, containing just three sheets of paper.
Each sheet had just one question.
The content was straight forward; Zheng Cheng understood it all with just a glance.
The first question: A half-inferior has intent to surrender, please state your opinion.
If you support, please briefly describe your proposed method to deal with half-Inferior Tribe.
If you oppose, please explain your reason.
The second question: How to deal with the remaining Inferior Tribe.
The third question: Please briefly illustrate the future development of the Radiation Island.
Looking at these three questions, Zheng Cheng’s mind raced, and he immediately focused his attention on the first question!
In the three questions, the third one seemed to be the core one.
Inviting the new professionists to participate in big issues, influencing the development of the Radiation Island with their opinions.
But Zheng Cheng was clear that among these three questions, the first one was actually the most important!
After all, the fifty-plus new professionists were just eighteen-year-old boys and girls, how much insight could they have to influence the development of the Radiation Island?
No matter how good your answers are, there are people above who have thought of it and can even perfect it more than you could.
The second question is the same.
There’s a group of Inferior Tribe left behind, the intention of which is self-explanatory.
Moreover, there are these five million half-inferior humans!
Zheng Cheng quickly wrote down answers to the second and third questions.
Second question: How to deal with the remaining Inferior Tribe.
Answer: Exterminate them.
Reason: Wildfires burn tirelessly, and spring wind brings life once again.
Third Question: Please briefly illustrate the future development of the Radiation Island.
He thought for a few minutes, and soon gave an answer.
Answer: Biochemical base, a war fort, and trial zone.
Then, he focused all of his energy on the first question.
How to deal with five million of the Half-Inferior Tribe!
If the Half-Inferior Tribe is present here now, and they seem to have a connection to the three elders.
Then it proves one thing—Xia Country has decided to shelter the Half-Inferior Tribe and view them as their own vassal tribe!
Now that area has been divided into three new provinces.
Those Half-Inferiors would probably become part of the jurisdiction as well.
Zheng Cheng pondered deeply, and information about the Inferior Tribe and his observations constantly flashed through his mind.
“The Half-Inferior Tribe should have originated from the Blue Star women who were captured by the Inferior Tribe from the Fallen Islands over the past three hundred years!”
“Their descendants have mutations, but they are not very obvious.”
“The thing that the three elders are most worried about in adopting the Half-Inferior Tribe is that these Inferiors may spread their radiation mutations to all the people of Xia Country.”
“If that’s the case, why not…”
His eyes brightened suddenly, recalling the best solution he had seen as a keyboard warrior online in his previous life.
He immediately wrote down the answer on paper with full confidence.
A few minutes later, after answering all three questions, he tossed away his pen and began to rest.
Since turning in the paper early isn’t allowed, he could only rest.
“Huh?”
A few minutes after Zheng Cheng put down his pen to rest, a light exclamation came from the stage.
Xin Ruhuo opened his eyes and looked in Zheng Cheng’s direction.
Xiao Tianfeng asked curiously, “What’s up, Old Fire? Did you find something?”
“A new student has come up with the answers.”
“That was quick?” Quan Linfen became interested too, “It’s less than ten minutes.”
“Could he just have scribbled something down?”
“No.” Xin Ruhuo shook his head, “He looks pretty confident.”
“Ru’er.”
Yang Ru’er, who had been closely watching the new Professionists, hastily answered, “Yes, master, I’m here.”
“Bring down the test paper of the boy in the fifth seat of the fourth row.”
“Yes, master!”
Yang Ru’er hurried down from the stage and walked towards Zheng Cheng’s ranks.
A fair number of the new professionists, who were figuring out their strategies, subconsciously looked up.
Why is this young lady coming down… She looks young, but she has a very mature charm.
The way she swayed her lotus-like steps felt like huge waves were brewing.
Dongfang Yang, sitting in the front row pondering how to develop the Radiation Island, glanced at Yang Ru’er but did not pay further attention.
Half-Inferior Humans?
What are they coming here for?
Better to use them as test subjects!
He had put all of his thoughts on how to develop the Radiation Island and transform it into a powerful war fort.
He could already imagine how proud he would feel when this Radiation Island transforms into a war machine due to his proposal in a few years.
Zhou Xinyu also noticed Yang Ru’er. He greedily leered at her before Ye Xishui, sitting next to him, yanked his ear and dragged him away.
“Write!”
He had no choice but to reluctantly pick up his pen, recalling the advice from the elders back home, as he began to tackle the third question.
In his opinion, the third item among these three questions was the most important!
Develop the Radiation Island!
As for the first two questions, they were light rain to him, answering them casually would do.
He was tired of hearing about appeasement, land distribution, and divisiveness.
Yang Ru’er quietly walked into the seating area, passing several people before finally stopping in front of Zheng Cheng.
Zheng Cheng opened his eyes slightly, looking surprised at the charming and beautiful girl in front of him, “What’s up?”
Yang Ru’er’s eyes flickered with surprise as she whispered, “My master ordered me to collect your test paper early.”
Zheng Cheng nodded, “Please.”
Yang Ru’er immediately collected the paper, resisting the urge to peek at the first question. She put the pages in a file bag and headed back to the stage.
Many noticed Yang Ru’er’s movements, and their eyes became suspicious.
“Collecting the test papers? Wasn’t it said that we can’t turn in early? It’s only been ten minutes!”
“What’s happening?”
“Someone finished already?”
“Who finished so quickly?”
Zhou Xinyu and Dongfang Yang in the first row also spotted the test papers in Yang Ru’er’s hand, confusion in their hearts.
The test papers quickly made their way to Xin Ruhuo, who tore open the envelope impatiently and took out the three pages.
He casually tossed the second and third pages to Xiao Tianfeng and Quan Linfen, while he focused on the first question himself.
Suddenly, his eyes widened, and he stared hard at the test paper.
“Good lord, this kid, he’s even tougher than me!”
“What? What?” Xiao Tianfeng hurriedly jumped over, “What did the new student write?”
Xin Ruhuo handed him the test paper, saying, “If we follow this student’s proposal, within a hundred years, Xia Country will no longer be troubled by the Half-Inferior Tribe issue!”
“That exaggerated?”
Quan Linfen was shocked too; this was the first time she had heard such an affirmative appraisal from Xin Ruhuo.
“Hiss…”
Xiao Tianfeng also gasped, “This kid, indeed ruthless! But his plan does seem better than yours, Old Fire!”
Quan Linfen grabbed the paper, curious, “I want to see what kind of answer would cause such a big reaction from you two…”
Soon, she froze too.
The question on the paper was simple, just one sentence.
And the answer below that was even simpler, just eleven words.
Answer: Castrate the males, distribute the females (as benefits).
