“Wang Xiao is here? Come and sit!”

Seeing Wang Xiao enter, Huang Tingwei immediately stood up and waved. He was so enthusiastic as if he was the owner of this place.

Wang Xiao subconsciously pursed his lips and inexplicably felt that the atmosphere was not right. After all, Chen Jinrong and Huang Tingwei had the same expression when they arranged for him to be part of the school exchange last time.

However, even so, Wang Xiao still nodded at the three of them and sat in the seat Huang Tingwei had just vacated.

Then, Huang Tingvvei sat down beside Wang Xiao and sandwiched him in the middle with Qin Kaiyang. “I didn’t expect you to come so quickly. You happened to be nearby?”

“Ah… yes.”

Wang Xiao nodded hesitantly. “I’m going to the trading market and happened to pass by here. Commander Chen, I heard from Adjutant Qi that you were looking for me?”

Wang Xiao said the last sentence to Chen Jinrong, but it was Huang Tingwei who replied. “It’s nothing serious. Commander Chen just wants to ask, how’s the preparation of your name list?”

“I’m still thinking about it.”

Wang Xiao replied ambiguously. Then, he changed the topic and probed, “But aren’t we only setting off for the school exchange next week? Why are you in such a hurry to get the name list?”

“It’s true that the school exchange will start next week, but there are many things that have to be prepared in advance.”

This time, it was Qin Kaiyang who replied. After saying that, he suddenly thought of something and added, “By the way, I’ll go with you guys to this school exchange ! ” “You’re going too?!”

Wang Xiao exclaimed. This time, he was really surprised.

It had to be known that if the threat of the Purple Star foreign races was really fake, then this school exchange would take at least half a year to end.

Wang Xiao was already very surprised to have an Academy Head like Huang Tingwei accompany him. Now that there was also Qin Kaiyang, what would happen to Kaiyang Academy during this period of time?

With this in mind, Wang Xiao simply asked him.

Qin Kaiyang waved his hand indifferently. “The Kaiyang Academy has been established for so many years and has long developed a mature operating system. It doesn’t matter even if I’m not around. I’ll just get someone to keep an eye on it!”

“Is it really that simple?”

Wang Xiao revealed a suspicious expression and looked at Chen Jinrong to probe, “Commander Chen, could this be your arrangement? With two Academy Heads accompanying you, could it be that the school exchange will be dangerous this time?”

Hearing this, Chen Jinrong knew that he had no choice but to speak. He pondered for a moment and replied helplessly, “Don’t think too much. This is Academy Head Qin’s request. If you don’t believe me, persuade him to give up. This way, I can save a sum of travel expenses.”

Wang Xiao looked at Qin Kaiyang when he heard this. The latter immediately nodded and admitted, “Commander Chen is right. I took the initiative to ask for this. ”

After a pause, Qin Kaiyang sighed softly and continued, “Ever since I opened Kaiyang Academy, I haven’t gone out for fun for more than ten years… Ah, no, I haven’t traveled for a school change. Now that there’s a chance, let’s go out together! ”

Wang Xiao narrowed his eyes and did not say anything. At first glance, Qin Kaiyang’s words sounded like he was targeting this opportunity to travel at a public expense. However, in Wang Xiao’s impression, Academy Head Qin was not someone who liked to take advantage of others.

However, since the senior had already tried his best to lie, Wang Xiao didn’t want to not believe him. He immediately changed the topic and probed, “In that case, does the student list have to be reduced by one person?”

“No need. It’s still ten people.”

Chen Jinrong waved his hand. “There are still no restrictions on the academy. If you have a candidate you think highly of, just report it to me—but you have to hurry.”

“I see…”

Wang Xiao nodded thoughtfully. “I really thought of a few suitable candidates!”

Before he could finish speaking, Wang Xiao had already arrived at his desk and taken a pen and paper. He wrote down a few names. “Commander Chen, this is the name list I’ve thought of.”

“Alright, let me take a look first.”

Chen Jinrong agreed and took the name list, but he frowned after taking a look.

After looking at Huang Tingwei and Qin Kaiyang suspiciously, his gaze landed on Wang Xiao’s face. “Are you sure you want these people?”

Wang Xiao also glanced at the two Academy Heads and nodded with a smile. “These are the candidates I’ve carefully considered.”

Hearing this, Chen Jinrong’s expression became even stranger. “I still have some impression of this Li Kaifu. He seems to be a kid from the Li family in South City, but who is this Zhao Yunyan?”

“Zhao Yunyan is a student of our Yuheng Academy’s Class E. He…”

Huang Tingwei subconsciously introduced the students. Before he could finish, he realized that something was wrong. ‘Wait! Zhao Yunyan? He’s on the list?” Chen Jinrong did not say anything and directly handed over the name list. Just as Huang Tingwei received it, Qin Kaiyang leaned over curiously.

With just a glance, their expressions became as strange as Chen Jinrong’s.

Other than Zhao Yunyan, Huang Tingwei also saw several students from Yuheng Academy on the list. Most of them were from Class E and one from Class B, but their strengths were at the bottom of the class.

Huang Tingwei did not know the other three people, but from Qin Kaiyang’s expression, he knew that they were students of Kaiyang Academy. Moreover, they should not be very strong.

“Wang Xiao, are these the candidates you carefully considered?”

Huang Tingwei shook the name list at Wang Xiao. “I’m not saying that these students are bad, but do you know the purpose of this school exchange?”

“Of course I do.”

Wang Xiao nodded and replied with a smile, “It is to increase our knowledge and take advantage of our strengths to make up for our weaknesses. To put it bluntly, it’s to let the academies from other places see the strength of our

Kaiyang City! ”

“You sure you get it?”

Huang Tingwei glared and shook the name list until it rattled. “Then why did you still choose these people? I’m not saying that they’re not good, but they don’t even have the right to participate in the academy’s ranking assessment. Do you want others to see their strength or make a fool of themselves?”

When Wang Xiao heard this, he immediately retorted, “Academy Head Huang, you’re wrong. Li Kaifu participated in the academy ranking assessment. We even fought in the secret realm!”

Huang Tingwei was so angry that he did not know what to say. Qin Kaiyang, who was at the side, said, “Wang Xiao, you know that Academy Head Huang doesn’t mean that, but this trip to the academy is very meaningful. We still have to choose a few stronger people.”

“But if this team is full of experts, how can others see how powerful I am?”

Wang Xiao retorted righteously. Before the two of them could speak, he looked at Chen Jinrong. “Commander Chen, you previously said that this list will be decided by me. Don’t tell me you want to go back on your word now?”

Chen Jinrong sighed and did not say anything, mainly because he did not know what to say.

Although this school exchange was a cover for Huang Tingwei, this involved the Purple Star alien races after all. No one could guarantee that nothing would happen during the process.

If he chose stronger students to participate, they would at least have the ability to protect themselves. The reason why he handed the decision of the name list to Wang Xiao was also to form a team that was familiar with each other and had tacit cooperation.

Now that Wang Xiao had chosen these people, it was definitely not in line with Chen Jinrong’s plan.. However, if he insisted on him choosing experts, wouldn’t it be equivalent to telling Wang Xiao that there might be danger?
