Chapter 99 - 99: 99: Evening

Translator: 549690339

In the evening, Shen MO and others returned to the center of the maze, and saw Tu Dan and her students again.

Everyone was surprised.

Normally, Tu Dan and the others should be staying where they set their flags, rather than returning to the starting point.

There was a heated argument taking place even from afar, Tu Dan was speaking anxiously, her forehead covered in sweat, but her students’ voices only got louder and louder.

Just like Shen MO had predicted: Tu Dan was losing control over her students.

They hastened their pace and the voices over there became clearer.

“Enough! I will never agree to this! It’s only the second day, we have plenty of time to explore the remaining passages. There is absolutely no need to take such risks! None of you are allowed to go! Got it?!”

Tu Dan summoned all her authority, emphasizing sternly to the group of students: “Nobody can go, and nobody is allowed to go near there!”

“But why, teacher? The exit is right in front of us! If we go in, we will get the reward right away!”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Yeah, teacher, even considering the danger, you can’t possibly stop us from even trying, right?”

“If we found the exit but are not allowed to go in, then what’s the point of exploring the passages?”

The students clamored and their words were filled with defiance.

Tu Dan’s chest heaved violently, and her face became increasingly pale.

— Whether it was the chance to escape or the rewards of the maze, the temptation was too great for these students.

Upon their return, Shen MO and Bai Youwei exchanged surprised looks.

…Exit?

They’ve found the exit so soon?

“Liao JingJing, cut it out! Stop stirring up trouble here!” Chen Hui, standing by Tu Dan’s side, said indignantly, “The exit won’t run away, Tu Dan is just asking you to wait for safety’s sake, what’s the rush?!”

“How am I stirring up trouble? I am just thinking about everyone’s best interests.” Liao JingJing replied aggrievedly, “This place is too dangerous, which is why I hope we can leave as soon as possible. Several students encountered that thing in the mirror today. If we stay any longer, who can guarantee our safety? Tu Dan?”

Tu Dan’s face turned ashen with anger, yet she couldn’t muster a word of rebuttal.

Yes, she couldn’t guarantee it! As a woman, her combat power was even lower than that of these students. Her only advantage was her constant prudence and caution!

However, at this point, even this advantage had become something the students found annoying!

Without mincing words, Chen Hui lashed out at Liao JingJing: “If Tu Dan can’t guarantee, can you? Can you promise that once the students enter, they will clear the game with no incidents?”

Liao JingJing bit her lip, her eyes reddening: “What are you implying, Chen Hui? You’ve been targeting me since last night. Now that I’ve found the exit, instead of offering a few words of praise, you continue to trample on me…”

Chen Hui: “The strategy was devised by Zhang Tianyang. The details were decided collectively. You just happened to be in the group that placed the flags. How could you claim to have found the exit? If it were someone else, they wouldn’t have found it? Ah, now I see why you’re so spirited today. You probably found the exit and are taking all the credit for yourself!”

Chen Hui’s words were harsh, like repeated slaps to the face.

Tears welled up in Liao JingJing’s eyes from anger. Seeing Shen MO and his group return, she immediately pointed at Shen MO and shouted: “You’re just doing all this because you don’t want us to leave so he won’t be left alone!”

Chen Hui:

She felt as if her head was about to explode, unable to find the words to retort.

She just wanted to slap her to death!
