#287 - Chapter 287 The Hidden Rules That Were Broken
“This....”
Li Xuefeng's eyes widened, looking at Wu Wei in front of him in disbelief.
“I...I lost?”
Li Xuefeng removed the helmet used for war games with a slightly trembling hand.
Cold sweat had already soaked the clothes on his back.
For a moment, he felt like he was hallucinating.
He felt that the person sitting across from him was not some young lord.
But a monster that chose people to devour.
A monster that enjoyed the cruelty and joy brought by war, and was completely integrated with war!
“Really? Even the war college instructor was defeated?”
“Who is this kid? So strong?”
“He seems to have won seven in a row, six new lords, and one instructor.”
“Could it be that the instructor deliberately lost? No matter what, this is too outrageous.”
At this time, the other lords around him whispered.
Everyone here had watched the war game just now.
However, what made it difficult for them to accept was that.
The young man sitting in front of them had just defeated Li Xuefeng, the special envoy of the War College and also one of the War College instructors.
And he defeated the opponent in an extremely strange way.
——————
With Li Xuefeng's defeat, Wu Wei, who was sitting across from him, silently took off his helmet.
He slowly breathed a sigh of relief and said to the other lords around him.
“Next.”
Hearing Wu Wei say this, the expressions of many lords around him changed.
But I have to say, Wu Wei was having a very happy time.
It could even be said that he hadn't been this happy in a long time.
Because he didn't expect that the War College's ball would have war game equipment prepared.
Moreover, as a representative of those who are not short of money, the War College's war game equipment is far more powerful than the war game equipment he used in high school.
It can not only simulate thousands of different races and arms, but also simulate several battlefield environments that Wu Wei has never encountered.
“....”“....”
However, when Wu Wei took a "playful" attitude to conduct war games, he forgot one thing.
That is, what is the purpose of this ball, and...
Why is there war game equipment at this ball organized by the War College!
After hearing Wu Wei say "next", the remaining lords present immediately scattered and left.
Obviously, after Wu Wei defeated Li Xuefeng, none of these lords wanted to compete with Wu Wei again.
For a time, only Wu Wei and Li Xuefeng were left in the entire smoking room.
Seeing this scene, Li Xuefeng suddenly laughed.
“Hahaha, Wu Wei, you brat is really too much.”
“You have completely destroyed the unspoken rules of this ball.”
“Too much? Unspoken rules?”
“What do you mean.”
Wu Wei frowned.
He didn't understand what Li Xuefeng meant, let alone what the other party was talking about.
But when Li Xuefeng saw Wu Wei's confused face, he laughed even more happily.
He lit a cigarette.
After a burst of smoke, he slowly began to explain to Wu Wei.
“Boy, can you guess why this equipment is set up in this welcome ball?”
“Uh...for entertainment?”
Wu Wei said.
But Li Xuefeng shook his head.
“No, it's not that simple.”
“If you want entertainment, there are too many things in the Lord Era that can be used for entertainment.”
“The War College put war games here, in fact, to screen out sufficiently outstanding seedlings through this [entertainment activity].”
“Although if you want to join the War College, you have to pass the War College's own assessment anyway.”
“But in fact, from the moment you enter the ball, the invisible assessment has already begun.”
Li Xuefeng flicked the cigarette ash and gestured to Wu Wei with his eyes, asking him to look around.
“Look, the lords who are good at knowledge and technology have already begun to talk to Instructor Eileen intentionally or unintentionally.”
Sure enough, when Wu Wei looked in the direction Li Xuefeng indicated, he did find that many lords were communicating with a female instructor named Eileen.
Although Wu Wei didn't hear clearly what they were saying, judging from the way they held the manuscripts, they were probably debating some academic issues.
“And, it's not just knowledge and technology...”
“Every lord has his own strengths, such as religion and belief, such as social and alliance abilities, or individual strength.”
“These lords need to leave a sufficiently deep impression on the instructors as much as possible before the end of this ball.”
“The better they perform, the more advantageous they will be in future assessments.”
“This is an unspoken rule that everyone knows, but no one will say.”
“So, the whole ball is operating under an unspoken rule.”
“But you...destroyed this unspoken rule.”
“Because I defeated you?”
Wu Wei seemed to understand something.
But not completely.
“No.”
“Defeating me is not the most important thing.”
“Because war games themselves have wins and losses.”
“Under the rules, even I, when facing new lords, will not have a win rate much higher than ordinary people.”
“So, this war game will be a place for many lords who want to join the War College to learn from each other.”
“And after a long period of learning from each other, I, as an instructor, should record the outstanding lords among them.”
“But you started a massacre and completely ended this assessment called war games.”
“What's even more unacceptable is that you defeated me, and you won by crushing me.”
“In this case, no one will dare to challenge you on this project again.”
“So...”
“The war game assessment has ended early because of your appearance!”
“You have completely destroyed the unspoken rules of this ball.”
“But it's not a good thing, Wu Wei.”
Li Xuefeng smiled badly.
“Why?”
Wu Wei asked.
He was even more confused now.
“Because the better you perform, the more potential enemies you will have in subsequent assessments.”
“For example, just now when you shouted [Next], you have inadvertently shaped yourself into a strong man who accepts challenges.”
“Even if you didn't mean it.”
Hearing this, Wu Wei finally understood.
He raised his head and looked around.
Sure enough, in the huge ball, many lords were looking at him intentionally or unintentionally.
And their eyes were full of faint hostility....
