Chapter 1740 Side Story 2: Prime Master Yin Mingjue Pursues His Wife (9)
The 800,000 candidates had to complete the test in five days. Phoenix Square and People's Square had to complete the test for 80,000 youths every day, so the workload was very heavy.
The staff only announced the test rules and regulations briefly before starting the test.
The candidates queued up for the test according to the order randomly assigned by the system.
There were a total of 10 test ports set up in Phoenix Square. 80,000 youths formed 10 phalanxes. Xu Qingtian stood in the 4th phalanx. His number plate said—
410280
This meant that he was in the fourth phalanx, the tenth column, and the 280th row.
The scorching sun roasted everyone until they were drenched in sweat. Fortunately, a huge umbrella had been placed in the sky above the square. When the umbrella was opened, it immediately blocked the sunlight and released cool air. Xu Qingtian pulled open the cuffs of his shirt and let the cold breeze enter his chest. Only then did he feel better.
He was good-looking to begin with, so when he stood in the crowd, he was the most eye-catching existence in the fourth phalanx.
Seeing him unbuttoning his shirt, countless fiery gazes shot at him.
There were both men and women.
Xu Qingtian, on the other hand, didn't realize that he had already become the center of attention.
At this moment, the phone in Xu Qingtian's pocket suddenly rang.
He took out his phone and glanced at it. It was a message from an unfamiliar number. After he opened the message, he only saw one sentence—
[Line up properly. Don't act so flirty.]
Xu Qingtian was speechless.
He suddenly raised his head and looked around, but he didn't find anyone suspicious.
Who was monitoring him?
That person even knew his phone number.
Xu Qingtian frowned and replied: "You're a reporter?"
Could it be that the news that he was going to participate in this year's Beast Tamer Awakening Ceremony had been leaked and attracted the attention of a reporter? But how did the reporter know his phone number?
The reporters probably wanted to take as many sensational photos of him as possible. Why would they warn him not to be… flirty?
Besides, when had he been acting flirty?
But the other party didn't reply to his message.
Xu Qingtian narrowed his eyes.
Who was it?
When cold air entered his chest through his collar, he thought of something and lowered his eyes to glance at his collar.
He was being flirty for unbuttoning a button?
Tsk.
He didn't believe that the other party would keep hiding.
She wanted him not to be flirty, right?
Then he would be flirty to the end.
He wanted to see how much longer the other party could take it.
Thus, Xu Qingtian began to unbutton the second button, then the third, then the fourth. He raised his head slightly and revealed an arrogant expression. His handsome young face, coupled with his arrogant expression, made the surrounding girls even more enamored.
It also aroused a certain someone's possessiveness.
Just as Xu Qingtian was about to unbutton the fifth button and reveal all his abs, he suddenly sensed that the air seemed to have distorted. After Xu Qingtian stopped and turned to look beside him, he realized that the people beside him were all motionless.
It seemed as if someone had pressed the pause button on the entire world.
In the next second, five slender fingers grabbed his wrist tightly and pulled him forward. Xu Qingtian felt that his body was about to fall to the ground, but instead, he fell into a soft embrace.
"Xu Qingtian, why are you so promiscuous?" A charming and pleasant voice sounded above Xu Qingtian's head.
Xu Qingtian was stunned.
This voice…
He looked up in shock and finally saw the owner of the arms clearly.
It was the woman in the red dress.
Today, she was wearing a white shirt. The ribbon at the bottom of the shirt was tied into a bow by her, revealing her sexy waist. Her tight jeans wrapped tightly around her perky buttocks and long legs. The maple leaf waist chain made of pure gold fell from her waist and landed in Xu Qingtian's open shirt.
The woman lowered her eyes and stared at Xu Qingtian's waist under his open shirt.
Then, the woman's rosy lips curled up slightly as she said playfully, "White chicken."
Xu Qingtian suddenly stood up and retreated while quickly buttoning his shirt. Then, he stared at the woman's charming face for a few more seconds. He was overjoyed, but he tried his best not to show it. Xu Qingtian pretended to be calm as he glanced around, but then he realized that he wasn't in Phoenix Square.
His surroundings were filled with pure white clouds.
He was in the sky?
After Xu Qingtian lowered his head, he realized that he was actually floating in the sky.
"Ah!" Xu Qingtian, who had never been up in the sky before, was so frightened that his heart skipped a beat. Then, he lost his balance and immediately fell down.
Xu Qingtian fell from the sky and passed through layers of white clouds before finally seeing the scenery below clearly.
It was a blue sea.
He would probably die if he fell into the deep sea from such a high altitude.
Xu Qingtian screamed even more shrilly—
"Ah!!"
That cry reverberated throughout the world, scaring the demon beasts in the sea so much that their eyelids twitched.
Just as Xu Qingtian was about to fall into the deep sea, a red light flashed. In the next second, Xu Qingtian's wrist was wrapped around by a golden whip, and he stopped falling. After Xu Qingtian looked up, he saw the mysterious woman floating above him with a golden whip in her hand.
"You…" Xu Qingtian panted as he asked," Are you going to kill me? "
"Heh…"
After Jing Rujiu retracted her whip, Xu Qingtian fell into Jing Rujiu's arms. Then, Jing Rujiu smiled mysteriously. In the next second, Xu Qingtian felt dizzy again.
Soon, he felt a heat wave.
After Xu Qingtian opened his eyes carefully, he realized that there was a volcano spewing out under him.
He had only seen the scene of a volcano erupting on television before.
Xu Qingtian was stunned when he saw the volcano erupt with his own eyes, so he hugged Jing Rujiu's waist tightly and asked her, "Why did you bring me here?"
Jing Rujiu sneered and pointed at the volcano as she said gently, "Xu Qingtian, if you dare to flirt in public again, I'll throw you into this volcano!" Jing Rujiu had a reputation for being a demoness for a reason.
Xu Qingtian swallowed hard and asked in disbelief, "You put on such a show just because I unbuttoned a few buttons in public?"
Jing Rujiu stroked Xu Qingtian's slightly bulging Adam's apple as she said, "Xu Qingtian, remember, from head to toe, even your nails belong to me. If you dare to mess around again in the future, I'll let you know the price of provoking me."
Xu Qingtian swallowed hard.
He asked carefully, "Are… are you really my wife?" His eyes were filled with suspicion.
He had never known that he liked such a neurotic woman.
Jing Rujiu raised her eyebrows and asked Xu Qingtian playfully, "What's with your expression? Do you regret marrying me?"
Xu Qingtian tactfully stopped talking.
"Alright, go back and participate in the test." With that, Jing Rujiu sent Xu Qingtian back to Phoenix Square.
Seeing that she was about to turn around and leave, Xu Qingtian grabbed the maple leaf pendant on Jing Rujiu's belt and shouted, "Jiu'er!"
Jing Rujiu was stunned.
She turned around in shock with tears in her eyes. Then, her throat tightened as she asked, "What did you call me?"
After Xu Qingtian shouted, he was stunned. "I…" Xu Qingtian didn't know how to explain, since he didn't know why he called her Jiu'er, as if it was his subconscious action and a memory engraved in the depths of his soul.
Jing Rujiu smiled happily as she asked Xu Qingtian, "What are you trying to say?"
Xu Qingtian looked at her steadily as he said extremely sternly, "You're weak, so drink less wine. It's harmful to your body." With that said, he became vexed again.
What nonsense was he talking about?
The other party could kill him with a swing of her whip. How did she look weak?
