1264: The Fourth Trial

The Fourth Trial

Just then, something clicked in Feng Wu's head, and she realized that the fairy was talking to her.2

"Hey, you." The fairy gave Feng Wu a strange look.

Feng Wu's stomach lurched. "What now? Do you have a new task for me?"

The fairy said, "Yes, it's the fourth trial. But…"

Feng Wu asked, "But what?"

The fairy put on a long face. "But it's kind of… long."

Feng Wu asked, "What's that supposed to mean?"

The fairy thought for a moment before she asked, "Are you sure you want to hear it?"

Feng Wu was speechless. "What do you think?"

The fairy looked sympathetically at Feng Wu when she said, "For the fourth trial, you'll have to become a top 10 Year 2 student, make Jun Linyuan change his opinion about you, cheer him up, and make him call you his lovely little fool of his own free will…"

Feng Wu was speechless.

The fairy buried her face in her hands. "Don't hit me. I have nothing to do with the design of the task."

Feng Wu took a deep breath.

The fairy was right. It was a very long task — so long that it almost made her lose control.

"Became a top 10 Year 2 student?" The corner of Feng Wu's mouth twitched.

She was the top student of Year 1 now, but she had only just gotten in, so she hadn't thought about skipping a grade yet. However…

She said, "It's doable. I can just go talk to Grand Secretary Fang."

Lucky for her, she had been on friendly terms with Grand Secretary Fang from the beginning, and he would always help her when something came up in Imperial College.

Chaoge and Qiuling noticed Feng Wu sitting there absentmindedly for a while, before she got to her feet.

Chaoge was bewildered. "Xiao Wu, where are you going?"

Feng Wu said, "I just remembered something, and I need to see Grand Secretary Fang now."

"What…" Chaoge smacked her own forehead. "I just remembered; Grand Secretary Fang has gone into seclusion!"

"What?!" Feng Wu was dumbfounded.

"He did!" Chaoge said earnestly. "It was yesterday, and you weren't around. Grand Secretary Fang sent us a message, saying that he'll be out in 10 days."

Feng Wu immediately asked the fairy, "What's the time limit for this trial?"

The fairy said, "10 days…"

Feng Wu was speechless.

That was to say, her time would be up when Grand Secretary Fang came out of seclusion.

What an unfortunate coincidence… Feng Wu rubbed her forehead in frustration.

Since all her previous trials had been completed in such a hurry, she decided that she was going to start early this time.

She told the other two girls, "I'm going to Imperial College."

Without Grand Secretary Fang's help, she could still get into Year 2 herself.

"Xiao Wu, are you going to school now?" Chaoge asked curiously.

Feng Wu chuckled. "No, I'm going to skip a grade."

"What?" Even Chaoge was surprised. "Why so sudden?"

Feng Wu chuckled. "I'll become a Year 2 student sooner or later, won't I?"

"Without you, what fun will Year 1 be? Xiao Wu, I'm going to Year 2 with you," Chaoge said earnestly as she took Feng Wu's hand.

Feng Wu nodded after some thought. "At your current cultivation level, you might be pushing your limits a little if you try to get into Year 2 now, but it's always worth trying."

Hence, the two of them went to Imperial College together.

The office of the chief of Year 1.

"What? You want to skip a grade to Year 2?" Chief Yu stared at Feng Wu in disbelief. "Are you sure about that?"
