The examiner stared in disbelief at the face of the fallen examinee.
As a talented young disciple of the Lin Family, coupled with the fact that the sub-examiner for the Magic Farm Game Copy was an elder from the Lin Family, almost no examiner didn't recognize Lin Zhaokai.
Furthermore, with the recent ranking announcement, Lin Zhaokai was ranked fourth, so it could be said that no one doubted Lin Zhaokai couldn't last until the end.
But now, Lin Zhaokai was eliminated on the 16th day???
Lin Zhaokai sensitively perceived the examiner's shock, and already annoyed and angry at being eliminated on the 16th day by someone he once disdained the most, Lin Zhaokai became even more humiliated and wished he could die.
He got up from the ground, ignored the examiner's questions, and left directly.
He couldn't afford to be discovered by more people that he had been eliminated if he stayed there.
However, due to Lin Zhaokai's relationship with Lin Yongyue, the news of Lin Zhaokai's elimination was immediately relayed to Lin Yongyue.
"What did you say? Lin Zhaokai was eliminated?" Lin Yongyue's eyebrows shot up in disbelief, forming a horizontal crease, almost unable to believe his ears.
"Yes, the patrolling examiner just reported it."
"Bring Lin Zhaokai to me. I want to know what happened," Lin Yongyue commanded in a deep voice.
"Yes." The Lin Family servant who came to report was about to leave when another Lin Family servant walked in in a hurry.
"Lin Yongyue, Bao Yunjing was just eliminated."
Lin Yongyue still had some impression of Bao Yunjing; after all, the Bao Family was a loyal supporter of the Lin Family, and Bao Yunjing was also a staunch follower who often accompanied Lin Zhaokai.
Bao Yunjing being eliminated right after Lin Zhaokai was definitely not a coincidence.
After a moment of thought, Lin Yongyue continued to instruct, "Bring Bao Yunjing along as well."
"Yes."
The Lin Family servant bowed and left.
Not long after, Lin Zhaokai and Bao Yunjing, with their heads bowed and an air of dejection, walked into Lin Yongyue's room.
"Lin Zhaokai, look up," Lin Yongyue commanded, "A Lin Family member can fail, but he cannot lose his spirit."
Hearing Lin Yongyue's words, Lin Zhaokai's spirits lifted considerably. He looked up, his face full of shame, at Lin Yongyue: "Uncle, I'm sorry, I disgraced the Lin Family."
"What exactly happened? How were you and Bao Yunjing eliminated?" Lin Yongyue asked.
"The Strongest Farm Owner Battle started early," Lin Zhaokai said after taking a deep breath.
"It started today? It's only the 16th day, 5 days early?" Lin Yongyue was somewhat surprised.
However, this way, Lin Yongyue knew how Lin Zhaokai and Bao Yunjing were eliminated.
"Wen Xiangjie directly attacked you?" Lin Yongyue continued to ask.
"Yes, as soon as the Strongest Farm Owner Battle began, I originally planned to use the magical deed to initiate battles with other people first, to avoid the battle Wen Xiangjie might initiate against me, but I didn't expect Wen Xiangjie to be so fast, I..." Lin Zhaokai's expression was grim, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "I was instantly killed by Wen Xiangjie."
"Me too." Bao Yunjing quickly spoke up for Lin Zhaokai: "Lin Yongyue, it's really not that Lin Zhaokai isn't strong enough, it's that Wen Xiangjie is too abnormal. She even cultivated the elf mother tree avatar, and has tens of thousands of magical plants. With this setup, whoever she fights dies. I even suspect Wen Xiangjie is cheating!"
"She cultivated the elf mother tree avatar?" Lin Yongyue frowned deeply.
Although Lin Yongyue knew it was a foregone conclusion that Wen Xiangjie would cultivate the elf mother tree avatar and obtain an elf after seeing the rankings that day, Wen Xiangjie accomplishing this on the 16th day still greatly startled him.
Wen Xiangjie's threat level in his mind had once again risen.
Although he didn't know how Wen Xiangjie did it, one thing was certain: Wen Xiangjie's talent was definitely not that simple!
Thinking of this, Lin Yongyue felt incredibly regretful.
Such powerful talent could not be used by their Lin Family; instead, it had attracted an opponent with infinite potential for the Lin Family.
If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have let Lin Zhaokai use such strong-arm tactics against Wen Xiangjie. It would have been better to lure her with benefits and gradually plan. Even if they couldn't acquire Wen Xiangjie's talent, it would have been good to bring Wen Xiangjie into the Lin Family.
However, it was too late now. From Wen Xiangjie's immediate and decisive attack on Lin Zhaokai, it was clear that Wen Xiangjie utterly hated the Lin Family.
"Uncle, we can't let this matter rest! Wen Xiangjie dared to eliminate me directly, which shows she harbors hatred for me, and for our Lin Family. We can't let Wen Xiangjie live!" Lin Zhaokai said to Lin Yongyue through gritted teeth.
"I know, but not yet." Lin Yongyue pressed his right hand down, signaling Lin Zhaokai to control his emotions.
"Why? Wen Xiangjie is just a commoner, isn't she at the mercy of our Lin Family?" Lin Zhaokai asked with agitation.
Being effortlessly instantly killed by Wen Xiangjie was a great humiliation for Lin Zhaokai, who had always been high and mighty and used to smooth sailing. Only with Wen Xiangjie's death could he wash away this disgrace.
Lin Zhaokai subconsciously ignored the method of washing away his disgrace by defeating Wen Xiangjie himself. Although he didn't want to admit it, the overwhelming combat power Wen Xiangjie displayed in the recent battle had already cast a shadow over Lin Zhaokai's heart.
"That old fellow Geng Bingrong reported Wen Xiangjie's matter immediately. This time, the Government's attitude is very firm; they are determined to protect Wen Xiangjie." Lin Yongyue recalled the scene of Geng Bingrong forcefully threatening him that day, and still felt very displeased.
"Lin Yongyue, we cannot let this Wen Xiangjie go!" Bao Yunjing glanced at Lin Zhaokai's expression and quickly spoke up for him: "Her talent is really a bit sinister. If we let her grow, I'm afraid..."
"It's just inconvenient to act until after this college entrance examination ends." Lin Yongyue picked up the water glass on the table and took a sip. "There's still a long time ahead. Only a genius who has grown up can be called a genius. Many so-called geniuses have long been buried in the mud of time."
Understanding Lin Yongyue's words, although Lin Zhaokai still looked unwilling, he could only lower his head and indicate that he understood.
Lin Zhaokai and Bao Yunjing were eliminated quickly because Wen Xiangjie's attacks were instant kills.
The battles between most examinees lasted a long time, and the results were very tragic. Even if they won, it was only a narrow victory, fighting until only one arrow tower remained or only a few magical plants were left.
Therefore, some time after Lin Zhaokai and others were eliminated, the crack at the copy entrance flickered wildly, and a large number of examinees were thrown out of the copy.
At this, all the teachers were alarmed and immediately rushed to the copy entrance, asking the eliminated examinees what exactly had happened.
