The Young Matriarch

Chapter 337: Chapter 337: Arresting Him on the Grounds of Cheating on the College Entrance Exam?

Xu Xingchen’s heart suddenly jumped, and he looked uneasily at the special police officer.

Is… is he here for me?

I haven’t done anything wrong!

Everything was done according to the college entrance examination procedures, there shouldn’t be any mistakes.

The surrounding test-takers glanced at Xu Xingchen frequently, their eyes filled with curiosity.

This is the first time I’ve seen this, how interesting!

...

The special police officer stared straight at him, his gaze falling on the Jade Talisman on Xu Xingchen’s chest, his expression growing increasingly serious.

Even as the original male protagonist, Xu Xingchen couldn’t hold back his tension now, his heart pounding as if it were about to leap out of his mouth at any second.

Lide didn’t expect the players to actually come.

1095 days, exactly three years in-game time.

“Glory” particularly emphasized in its promotion that the time ratio between the game and reality was 1:3, with one day in reality equating to three days in-game.

Lide had originally thought the game company was merely exaggerating. After a year in reality and the game being live, now seeing over a thousand days on the game panel, he didn’t imagine it would be true.

So, did I cross over to the game three years early?

For a moment, Lide felt a bit excited.

At the start, I became the Ancestor of the Bloodline, with hundreds of underlings, and I’m also a level 10 Advanced Mage. Isn’t this a bit too much?

But it’s fine, the more excessive, the better. I like it.

After his excitement subsided, Lide turned his attention to the attribute panel.

The skills listed there immediately got his heart racing.

He had three main categories of skills.

First, there were the Talent Specializations, three skills in total.

Talent Specialization: Bloodline Ancestor (Unique), Bloodline Shackles (Limited), Magic Affinity (Extreme)

Bloodline Ancestor: You are the Ancestor of the Bloodline, possessing a powerful lineage that can resist sunlight. You can develop one Bloodline each month, all Bloodlines and their descendants will maintain absolute loyalty to you. Each Bloodline can provide you with 1 character experience point per month.

After reading the skill descriptions, Lide felt a bit excited. Absolute loyalty, this attribute was simply domineering.

His worry was completely put to rest; even if he acted out of character, this “absolute loyalty” attribute meant it wouldn’t matter.

Of course, whether this loyalty was the unconditional kind he imagined or one where they could still think independently but sacrifice without hesitation, he needed to verify.

Furthermore, the attribute of gaining 1 character experience point per Bloodline each month was highly practical.

The difficulty of gaining character experience in “Glory” was extremely high, as mentioned on the official website.

Although he was now only level 10, an Advanced Mage, in a city with millions like Green City, he could walk horizontally.

Bloodline Shackles (Limited): As the Bloodline Ancestor, you have absolute control over Bloodlines. You can manipulate them through Bloodline Shackles, issuing commands ingrained in their blood.

Controlling Bloodlines through bloodline manipulation, the description gave Lide an even stronger domineering feeling.

The control ability of the Bloodline Ancestor over the Bloodline was simply invincible.

Especially, the ability to issue commands dissolved into the blood made Lide ponder greatly.

He keenly felt that this skill would definitely be highly useful in the future.

The last Talent Specialization.

Magic Affinity (Extreme): Your affinity for magic has reached its limit, allowing you to manipulate magic at will.

Very straightforward and powerful but also very effective.

It clearly told Lide that he was destined to be a mage and shouldn’t think about other things.

According to the “Glory” official website, each person could only choose two Talent Specializations when selecting a profession.

But Lide now had not just an extra one but three, and each was incredibly powerful.

The second skill category was Racial Skills.

Racial Skills differed from Talent Specializations in that they were related to race, while Talent Specializations were more about personal talent.

The Bloodline’s Racial Skills were three highly practical skills.

Bat Transformation: You can transform into 100 small bats, each containing 5% of your strength. As long as one bat remains, you can be reborn. You can also morph bat wings for flight, at 50% of the small bats’ speed.

Blood Absorption Recovery: Bloodlines can recover physical strength, magica power, and spirit through blood absorption.

Super Strong Physique (passive): The Bloodline Ancestor has a powerful physique.

Powerful, Lide finally directly felt just how strong the body of the Bloodline Ancestor he occupied was.

Super strong physique, Magic Affinity, this was simply divine for dual cultivation of magic and martial arts.

In terms of potential, even the hidden professions briefly mentioned on the “Glory” official website couldn’t compare.

The third skill category was Mage Skills.

Mage Skills ranged from low to high in First Circle Magic, Second Circle Magic, Three Circle Magic, Four Circle Magic, Five Circle Magic, Forbidden Curse, Divine Arts.

Lide, now a level 10 Advanced Mage, mastered around ten First and Second Circle Spells, three Three Circle Spells, and could only learn Four Circle Spells at level 15 as a Great Mage.

As for Five Circle Spells, only level 20 and above Extraordinary Mage were eligible, so Forbidden Curses and Divine Arts were out of reach for the current Lide.

Yet for some reason, Lide saw no warrior skills.

In “Glory,” each person could have two professions, but the secondary profession’s level could only be half of the primary profession’s and would face double the experience penalty.

Lide’s attribute panel showed a level 5 warrior profession, but only mage skills.

After recalling briefly, Lide couldn’t help but laugh.

The Bloodline Ancestor was an unequivocal magic enthusiast, believing magic to be the most powerful and dismissive of the warrior profession.

The secondary profession was set as a warrior because of the Super Strong Physique from the race talent, aiming to maximize this potential.

With a sigh in his heart, Lide thought the Bloodline was truly a blessed race, except for the weakness to sunlight, it was overwhelmingly powerful.

But now, with the bug-like talent specialization of the Bloodline Ancestor, the weakness to sunlight was gone too, making it overwhelmingly strong.

Knock knock knock~

A knock on the door interrupted Lide’s thoughts.

“Lord Lide, are you inside?”

A voice as charming as a nightingale’s came through the wooden study door into the room.

The girl outside spoke a different language, entirely unlike Chinese, but Lide could completely understand.

He instinctively answered.

“I am.”

As the words left his mouth, Lide was a bit surprised. This wasn’t Chinese, but he spoke it fluently.

“It must be from inheriting the original body’s memories.”

Breathing a sigh of relief, he thought that although he had inherited the Bloodline Ancestor’s memories, many everyday habits weren’t easy to change.

Now, having inherited not just attributes but also the language, there was no problem.

Tidying up the slightly disordered blue mage robe on his body, his two tusks had already turned into regular teeth, though his face was still somewhat pale, his spirit had improved greatly.

Straightening his chest slightly, he opened the door.

Creak~

The door opened, and a young girl in a blue mage robe appeared before Lide.

The girl had a slender and graceful figure, with a height of 1.7 meters exuding an outstanding aura.

Her big watery eyes were like a goddess raising a torch, with light flickering inside.

Her petite and delicate features on a fair and tender face, with a thick smile.

Her slightly wavy golden hair cascaded over her back like waves.

Such a delicate girl.

Lide’s eyes brightened.

“Lord Lide, lunch is prepared for you, would you like to dine in the study or the dining room?”

With a sweet smile, Wina said in the softest voice.

As the Tower Master of this Magic Tower, an elite member of the Green City Magic Association, Lide’s presence was like the sky in this Magic Tower, holding absolute power and unquestionable authority.

No matter how capable Bai Chuwei was, could she manipulate the special police in the college entrance examination room? That’s impossible.

But he always felt that this was somehow related to Bai Chuwei.

They checked Xu Xingchen’s admission ticket and ID, occasionally glancing at him, their looks making Xu Xingchen even more uneasy.

He wanted to ask what exactly happened, but he didn’t dare to speak up.

“I’m asking you, is this Jade Pendant yours?” the man finally asked.

Jade Pendant?

Protective Jade Talisman?

Xu Xingchen’s face was ashen as he suddenly remembered—whenever he wore this Protective Jade Talisman, he was more fluent in answering exam questions than he had been in practice tests, and he could even score ten more points!

Even Xu Xingchen, who wasn’t the brightest, understood what the situation was now.

This Jade Pendant, when it comes down to it, is merely a talisman, but in internet language, it’s a buff!

Using a buff in the college entrance exam, is that fair to the other test-takers?

Xu Xingchen tried to calm himself, bit his pale lips, and said, “Yes, it’s mine.”

The man’s eyes changed slightly.

Xu Xingchen continued, “According to the rules of the college entrance examination, metallic objects cannot be brought into the exam room, but I checked, and a Jade Pendant is allowed.”

And… that doesn’t count as a violation, right?

Are they going to arrest him for cheating in the college entrance exam?

Xu Xingchen suddenly recalled what Bai Chuwei had said to Duan Xingye—”A setback may turn out to be a blessing in disguise,” “Some things shouldn’t be worn, who knows, they might bring other misfortunes instead?”

Bai Chuwei… did she always know?

However clever and precocious Xu Xingchen was, at this moment, he was utterly scared out of his wits.

Isn’t cheating in the college entrance exam punishable by jail time?

Xu Xingchen almost burst into tears; he hadn’t done anything to Bai Chuwei, so why was she always after him?

How could there be such a malicious woman in this world?
