Abyss Game: I am covered with cheats

"To all candidates who passed the first round of testing," the proctor's voice echoed from behind the glass once more, "Congratulations on passing the first test, but please don't get too happy, because there are four more rounds of competition waiting for you.

"Each round's questions will increase in difficulty. Although you may have achieved good results in this round, you might not be so lucky in the next."

As soon as the proctor finished speaking, Charles suddenly mustered his courage and asked, "If it's convenient, may I ask, who had the best score in the first round of the exam?"

The surrounding candidates were stunned, not expecting Charles to ask such a question.

However, the proctor didn't show much emotional fluctuation, only staring at Charles with a gloomy gaze, and said, "I will not answer this question for you, but I can tell you clearly, the answer to this question is not you."

"What!"

"How can this be?"

"There's a master hidden among us?"

Charles had clearly stated that he knew the answer to every question. Even if he lost some points on the major problems for missing steps, his score on the hundred-point paper would still be at least ninety points.

To score better than Charles, one would have to not make any mistakes on the major problems and also know the answer to every question.

Then, that person's score... is very likely a perfect score!

Damn! There are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in this crowd!

Zhuang Jiasheng seemed to have noticed something, looking at Xu Tong's back, but didn't say a word.

The proctor continued, "Next is the second round of the exam. I will allocate the exam rooms in advance and give you ten minutes of rest. After ten minutes, enter the classrooms in order and continue with the second round of the exam."

After speaking, the proctor also assigned each candidate's exam room.

The buffer pads slowly closed, and the entire blood-red space fell into silence.

"It seems we're in the same exam room this time," Xu Tong said, walking to Pei Wenyu's side. "How confident are you about the second round of the exam?"

Pei Wenyu still shook her head, honestly replying, "I'm not sure. The content of the first round was already quite difficult.

"If the content of the next exam is even harder, I might only be able to reach a score of twenty or thirty."

Not only will the upcoming second round of exams be more difficult than the previous one.

The difficulty of the questions in the following third, fourth, and even the final fifth round will gradually increase. More and more people will take unconventional paths.

This may also be the purpose of the question-setting team: the exam is not the only way out. There are many ways to succeed.

For example, crushing the stumbling block under your feet.

"Let's see," Xu Tong replied, "If there's a chance, I'll try to carry you a few more rounds."

In this instance, Pei Wenyu was the only person Xu Tong could completely trust.

Even with Zhuang Jiasheng, Xu Tong couldn't completely trust him, after all, they weren't well acquainted.

If Pei Wenyu could assist him in the final fifth round, it would definitely be much easier.

Pei Wenyu didn't say much, only nodding silently, not indicating that she must go further, putting too much pressure on Xu Tong.

In the distance, during these silent ten minutes, Charles still maintained his calm and composed expression.

But Xu Tong always paid attention to Charles's eyes.

His eyes were filled with disbelief.

Originally, Charles had absolute confidence that he would break through as the first place, but the question-setting team gave him a hard slap in the face.

Someone is even stronger than him?

There's actually a master?

Since the National Instance ended, Lyman Isaac, who was originally arrogant because of his status as one of the top ten strongest players, seemed to have become a different person, constantly muttering a Chinese idiom.

Although Charles didn't understand it, he later looked it up.

It's called 'There are people beyond people, and mountains beyond mountains'.

It means that even if you are powerful, others are even more powerful than you. It is generally used to persuade people not to be arrogant and to be humble.

Charles didn't understand it at the time. After all, at Lyman's level, how much stronger could someone be than him? What merit or ability would make Lyman keep it on his lips every day?

But now, Charles finally deeply understood the meaning of this sentence.

Who is it?

Who exactly is it?

Whose subordinate is it!

Charles chatted with the players surrounding him while searching the crowd with his eyes.

With two-thirds of the candidates gone, the number of people in sight had decreased a lot.

Charles's gaze quickly swept over everyone present.

But to be honest, there weren't many suspicious people.

Charles's first suspicion was definitely the players present. Apart from the players surrounding him, there were only three exceptions: Xu Tong, Pei Wenyu, and Zhuang Jiasheng.

Xu Tong... to be honest, you couldn't see any threat from his eyes and demeanor, no feeling of containing great wisdom.

Pei Wenyu... gave off a feeling of being ruthless and not saying much, but that was only limited to force. It was hard to say about her intelligence.

Only Zhuang Jiasheng, although wearing a decadent expression, had emotions in his eyes that were somewhat confusing, making it unclear what he was thinking.

Among the remaining one-third of the candidates, the most suspicious person with a better score than him should be this man!

Coincidentally, Zhuang Jiasheng's exam room this round was the same as Charles's.

So Charles walked directly over and extended his hand to Zhuang Jiasheng.

"Hello, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Zhuang Jiasheng was stunned for a second, nodding blankly, "Hello, hello, it's also a pleasure to meet you."

"I believe you will definitely be able to advance to the third round in the next exam, right?" Charles showed a warm smile, seeming to want to get on good terms with Zhuang Jiasheng. "I hope our relationship doesn't become too strained. If there are places where we can help each other, it's better for us to help each other."

Zhuang Jiasheng still maintained that silly expression, but in Charles's opinion, it didn't seem genuine.

This man's eyes clearly held some secrets. Others might not be able to see it, but he definitely saw it.

Showing another smile, Charles bowed slightly to Zhuang Jiasheng, then returned to his position.

From beginning to end, he didn't look at Xu Tong and Pei Wenyu.

"It seems this guy thinks that the person with the better score than him is me," Zhuang Jiasheng chuckled, whispering to Xu Tong, "This is a big misunderstanding."

Xu Tong shrugged. "Isn't that perfect?"

Zhuang Jiasheng also understood Xu Tong's meaning. "In that case, if this guy named Charles wants to win this instance, he will definitely think about dealing with me first, right?

"Since I've attracted the firepower for you, if we're in the same exam room, you have to find a way to carry me into the next round."

Xu Tong showed a mysterious expression.

"I'll find a way to protect you, and then let you fulfill some of my needs...

"Wouldn't that be considered me keeping you?"

Zhuang Jiasheng showed a shocked expression, then asked Pei Wenyu, "How long has this symptom lasted?"

Pei Wenyu: "..."
