In fact, in the previous assessment, Yuan Hu gradually felt the difference between him and the others.

It was obvious that among the unfathomable Shan Yue, the powerful Jia Yi, and Ruo Ting, whose potential could not be underestimated, he was undoubtedly the weakest. There was almost no chance of him winning.

What he could do was to maximize the benefits. For example, he took the initiative to extend an olive branch to Ruo Ting and form an alliance with her.

He had already discussed the conditions with Ruo Ting. If there was no hope of winning, he would try his best to help Ruo Ting get first place. Similarly, Ruo Ting’s family would also compensate him with corresponding benefits.

Just as the two of them were searching for the note hidden in the forest, Jia Yi’s figure appeared from behind a big tree and headed straight for the two of them.

As soon as Jia Yi walked in front of the two of them, she stared straight at Yuan Hu and asked, “Have you given up on fighting for the championship?”

Being asked so directly, Yuan Hu replied with an unfriendly expression, “What does it have to do with you?”

“Haha.” Jia Yi sneered and sized up Yuan Hu with disdain. She walked past the two of them and went to the other side.

“What a strange person.” Ruo Ting pouted and continued to search with Yuan Hu.

Before long, the two of them met Shan Yue again.

At that time, Shan Yue had just come down from a tree. Seeing this, Ruo Ting immediately shouted, “Shan Yue, you’re no longer in the mood to compete. Have you started climbing trees?”

Shan Yue did not reply. Instead, she smiled and waved a large handful of notes at Ruo Ting.

She was skilled. It was easy for her to climb a few trees to get the note from the tree. She had saved up a lot along the way. Only then did Ruo Ting realize that the professors had hidden a note on the tree. She had not noticed it along the way and did not know how much she had lost.

Ruo Ting looked at the trees that were more than five meters tall and swallowed her saliva. She turned to Yuan Hu and said, “Yuan Hu, 1 remember that your father and uncle are both in the army, right? Then you should be quite skilled. I’ll leave the matter of going up the tree to find the note to you. Don’t let Shan Yue take too many notes.”

Yuan Hu looked troubled. He tried to move his limbs. He stepped on the tree trunk and jumped towards the shortest branch. Just as he reached out to grab the branch and swayed for a moment, he immediately fell.

Seeing Yuan Hu’s sorry state, Shan Yue immediately burst out laughing. She sat on the tall branch and teased, “I didn’t expect to see a monkey perform in the competition. How exciting.”

“You’re calling me a monkey?” Yuan Hu’s eyes widened, and his face flushed with intense exercise and embarrassment.

“You’re wrong. At your level, even a monkey might be better than you,” Shan Yue continued to mock.

“Shan Yue, how dare you humiliate me like this? Just you wait!” Yuan Hu was furious. If not for Shan Yue sitting high, he might have rushed forward to beat her up.

Shan Yue shrugged and dusted off her hands in boredom. Then, she turned around and jumped down from the tree. “I don’t mean to humiliate you. I’m just telling the truth. I’m busy. See you later.”

“Don’t worry about this. Find the note first.” Ruo Ting’s expression was not good either. She had always been at odds with Shan Yue, but now that the overall situation was important, she could only push Yuan Hu, who had been completely distracted by Shan Yue.

The two of them could not go up the tree, so they could only speed up their search under the tree to avoid falling too far behind Shan Yue.

Looking at Shan Yue’s confident back, Ruo Ting could not help but look up at the tree that was taller than a building above her head again. Her face turned from red to green and she subconsciously muttered, “Damn it, why does Shan Yue still know how to climb trees? She doesn’t learn proper things and learns such nonsense.”

Hearing the resentful discussion of Ruo Ting and Yuan Hu not far behind her, Shan Yue curled her lips and looked thoughtfully in the direction of Jia Yi in the east.

At this moment, some disturbed birds flew out of the forest in the east from time to time. It was very lively.

“It seems that some people don’t want the competition to continue smoothly.” Shan Yue said this unhurriedly before she left. Her meaningful voice drifted in the wind, and Ruo Ting and Yuan Hu did not hear it.

BANG!

bang!

In the forest to the east, Jia Yi had long discovered that there was also a note hidden on the tree.

Although she did not have the ability to climb up the tree as easily as Shan Yue, she still relied on her brute force to kick the tree trunk again and again, causing many pieces of paper to fall.

Most of Jia Yi’s thoughts were straightforward and rough. Her IQ.was extremely high, and even Ruo Ting could not compare to her ability to solve questions. However, she loved to do things in a violent and simple way, as if this could relieve the violent emotions in her heart..
