They were in the Saint Laurent Academy’s encampment. After Shen Yanxiao and her team had left the teachers’ tent, they were led to their respective tents by other students. Their tent a.s.signments were based on their dormitory arrangements.
In addition to her and Tang Nazhi, she saw that her previous roommate, Lin Xuan, was also in the tent.
When they entered the tent, Tang Nazhi immediately laid down on his bed. After he had experienced the rough life of camping in the wilderness for seven days, he fell into a deep sleep as soon as his body touched the soft bed.
Lin Xuan had no sense of presence with him, and it was not dissimilar with how things were for him in the academy. He had returned to the encampment a few days earlier than Shen Yanxiao and Tang Nazhi. When he saw them, he only dared to nod and smile at Shen Yanxiao.
Shen Yanxiao returned his smile, and she sat on her bed as she pondered over some issues internally.
She thought that she would be exposed earlier in the teacher’s tent, and she had not expected Qi Xia to push the problem with the antidote to Tang Nazhi. She also did not expect Tang Nazhi to go along with Qi Xia, as if they had discussed it beforehand.
Their flawless cooperation had averted a disaster for her.
However, Shen Yanxiao did not understand why Qi Xia had done that. He did not know the origin of those three antidotes, and he also did not know any of her worries. So how did he know to help her?
Was her expression too solemn? Shen Yanxiao smiled and touched her face.
Even though Shen Yanxiao had wanted to ask Qi Xia and Tang Nazhi about that on their way back to their tents, she knew that it was not the place to do that as there were other students in the encampment.
She had also intended to question Tang Nazhi as soon as they reached their tent, but she had not expected that the idiot would drop dead asleep immediately after as well.
“Erm, I heard that you had achieved pretty good results for this test. Congratulations.” Lin Xuan shyly moved closer to her as he hugged his book and congratulated Shen Yanxiao.
Shen Yanxiao was stunned for a brief moment before she nodded at Lin Xuan.
“Thank you, what about you?” She had not encountered Lin Xuan in the Obscure Forest in the seven days that they were in it. She also did not know which team he was in too.
Lin Xuan smiled bashfully. “Not that good. We were eliminated on the third day, and I will probably be allocated to the red cla.s.s.” Lin Xuan eyes were dimmed. Even though he did not possess Tang Nazhi’s arrogance, he had his own pursuits.
However, he was an herbalist and also a freshman without any connection in the Saint Laurent Academy. When they had to form groups, no one had invited him to join their teams. It was only after the majority of the teams were set, the leftover students had banded together to form teams. He had managed to join a team with other first-year students from the other divisions.
“You won’t,” said Shen Yanxiao.
“Ah?” Lin Xuan looked at Shen Yanxiao in puzzlement, as he did not know what she meant.
“I mean, you won’t be allocated to the red cla.s.s. At the very least, you will be in the orange cla.s.s.” Shen Yanxiao was very sure about that. During the second night, when the three beasts in her team had drunk the antidote, they had behaved like animals in heat and swept across the entire Obscure Forest. That had lasted until noon of the third day. They had eliminated at least three hundred students. Coupled with students who had been eliminated by other competing teams, the quota for the red cla.s.s would have been completely ‘filled’ before noon of the third day.
