Luo Qi frowned, "Isn't it very unfair if anyone can challenge at any time?"
Mo Xuan shook his head, "I've checked carefully. In our primary school, there's almost no fairness. If your strength is strong enough, you'll naturally have the means to protect yourself. If you don't have that strength, it's better not to stay on the leaderboard."
Ye Mu sneered, "It's not that terrible. People on the leaderboard probably wouldn't be so ungracious, unless there's a real feud that would lead to such methods."
Hearing Ye Mu's words, Luo Qi's worries didn't lessen by half. Who has a feud? Wouldn't that be Mo Jue and them having a feud? With such a father, Luo Qi guessed that guy wouldn't have any good manners.
However, it was too early to say anything now. He continued to ask Mo Xuan, "Are there really no benefits to this leaderboard? Besides a title, nothing else?"
Mo Xuan smiled, "Of course there are, but you two might not be interested. Those on the leaderboard will receive different rewards based on their ranking. The grand prize even includes the latest model of a flying ship, while others include priority use of training grounds, free meal tickets, single rooms, and so on. These rewards encompass all aspects of school life, providing convenience in all aspects of food, clothing, housing, and transportation."
The little cub opposite was carved from jade, and from childhood to adulthood, he had never suffered hardship, let alone grievance. The benefits that attracted others were merely ordinary treatment to him.
Luo Qi, however, was not blindly optimistic, his small face etched with worry. There's an old saying that great rewards attract brave men. Although it wasn't quite applicable here, he knew that many students came from border planets or garbage planets, and such rewards might be very important to them. Perhaps many people who were originally indifferent to the rankings would want to compete for them.
He Ning, who had been silent, suddenly said coldly, "Gu Raising."
Luo Qi was stunned, then reacted. Yes, first the assessment, then the temptation, and the rules were no rules. Wasn't this maximizing the students on the leaderboard to fight and strive to climb higher?
Mo Xuan also nodded, "That's why I said you'd better not get involved if it's not necessary."
Luo Qi leaned back, his eyes fixed on the sky without focus, and muttered, "This is much harder than going to kindergarten."
Mo Xuan suddenly added, "Oh, right, there's another reason. If someone who was originally on the leaderboard falls off due to insufficient strength, they seem to go on some 'Keep Going' list."
Mo Xuan smiled, as if the following words were very interesting. "Saying 'Keep Going,' it's actually similar to a disgrace list. All preferential treatment will be withdrawn, and if they don't get back on the list, they will be on that list for at least a month."
Luo Qi's mouth twitched. Good heavens, the school's move was quite cunning. How could proud people endure such humiliation? Moreover, those who pulled them down, the ridicule and sarcasm, not everyone could tolerate it.
Thinking about it, it was a mess. He himself was fine; as long as he didn't participate in the disputes on the leaderboard, he would be okay. But Ye Mu and the others... Luo Qi looked around at the other people in the dormitory. They all looked like they were not to be trifled with. Was he the only lazy fish?
Ye Mu knew what Luo Qi was thinking and rubbed his head, "It's nothing yet, what are you worried about?"
Luo Qi said weakly, "Even so, as long as it's a competition, it's best not to get injured. Otherwise, even if you win, the injury will still hurt!" He sat up from the bed and said, "Look at Mo Xuan, and then look at He Ning and He Yuan. They look so frail, not even as strong as me. Maybe they can't even beat me."
He Yuan raised an eyebrow in surprise, looking confused. "Little classmate Luo Qi, I'm very touched that you're thinking of me like this, but where did you get the misconception that I can't beat you?"
Luo Qi: "..." Fine.
The issue of the leaderboard, which only Luo Qi was excessively worried about, ended here. The few of them changed the topic and started talking about other things. The more they talked, the more curious Luo Qi became about He Ning and He Yuan. They seemed to know a lot, but they didn't seem to be children of major races. However, Luo Qi could see that the two brothers liked this simple dormitory atmosphere, so they got along well even with Mo Xuan, whom they didn't know.
The five little cubs went to have lunch together. As soon as they returned and sat on their beds, they heard the broadcast that had easily sent away one-fifth of the students ring out again. The moment Luo Qi heard this voice, he shivered, and a bad feeling arose in his heart.
The broadcast voice was still as gentle as ever: "Dear students, a good physique is the most basic condition to support your studies, and a healthy body is the capital for a lifetime of revolution. To check your basic physical health, a unified physical examination will be conducted at the school stadium in one hour. We hope students will not be late."
Luo Qi's mouth twitched. Why did it feel like the ancient planet was doing break time exercises? But fortunately, it was just a physical examination. He looked at Ye Mu, only to see him frowning.
Luo Qi blinked, "What, is there something wrong with the physical examination?"
Ye Mu shook his head, "I don't know, but I always feel it won't be that simple."
Luo Qi tilted his head, "What else could be wrong with a physical examination?"
Ye Mu didn't say anything more, only saying, "No matter what, we should be careful." Luo Qi looked at the others in the room and found that everyone seemed to have the same serious expression. Luo Qi also frowned. Was he really too carefree? But with such a large school, they wouldn't use a physical examination as a pretense to trick them, would they?
Fifty minutes later, the five of them set off for the stadium together. Many students had already arrived at the stadium, all looking at the oval cabins, resembling cultivation pods, suspended densely on the wall with shock. Corridors connected the cabins, allowing students to walk into them. This wall full of cabins was made of special metal, exuding a sense of technology. The principal stood at the very front and said with a smile, "Students, choose one to enter yourselves."
