Rebirth of the Thief Who Roamed The World
chapter-338

Huahai University’s Affiliated High School was bustling with activity today, with many unfamiliar faces walking around campus. Students from the various high schools in the region all flocked here to participate in the Top Military Academy’s enrollment exam.

As humanity continued expanding outward towards the stars, the importance of fostering the new generation became increasingly clear. Anyone who could enter the Top Military Academy would be recognized by the government as a rare talent. Their status in society would be elevated, and they would receive special protections.

The Top Military Academy offered many courses also available in other universities, but with a focus on military affairs, science, and technology. Its position in the nation was unshakeable after producing many senior government officials. It wasn’t mandatory for graduates to join the military, and just the prestige of being an alumni made many things in life much more convenient and straightforward.

Three girls were chattering near the underground parking lot entrance. They were students of Class 3, the same as Nie Yan and Xie Yao.

“Who knew Liu Ze’s family was so rich?”

Expressions of envy surfaced on their faces. At this moment, one of the girls happened to catch a glimpse of Nie Yan stepping out of his Thrawn. She rubbed her eyes in disbelief. Even the cheapest model cost more than ¥20,000,000!

Just at this moment, an even more conspicuous car drove into the parking lot. With a sleek design resembling a fierce beast, it was the Taiga Black! The eyes of the girls widened in shock.

Isn’t that Tang Yao’s car? Nie Yan mused when the Taiga Black parked right next to his Thrawn.

As if to answer his question, Tang Yao got out of the car.

“Tang Yao, you came too?” Nie Yan asked.

Nie Yan nodded in understanding. Tang Yao wasn’t someone who spoke without thinking. His father really did possess this bit of ability. Sadly, his father was a businessman. At the end of the day, the status of a businessman could never compare with that of a government official. This was why his father wished for him to enter the Top Military Academy, making him the first to do so in their family.

“Let’s go.”

Nie Yan and Tang Yao chatted while making their way to the elevator.

“Isn’t that Nie Yan from our class?”

“Who’s the fatty next to him?”

“No clue.”

“He was driving a Taiga Black. He must be really rich. There’s only a handful of students in our school who can afford one.”

The eyes of the three girls followed Nie Yan and Tang Yao until their figures disappeared behind the elevator doors.

“That Nie Yan is pretty low-key. He rarely ever talks. Who knew he drove a Thrawn.”

“Too bad he only has eyes for Xie Yao,” the taller of the girls said in an envious tone.

“I wonder who the fatty beside him is.”

“I didn’t recognize him. Maybe we have a chance.”

Nie Yan and Tang Yao seperated after passing through a long corridor since the exam area for students from other schools was held in a different area. Nie Yan swiped his identification card through the ID scanner to receive an examination number, then walked into the exam hall for Huahuai High School students. There were roughly 600 people inside.

Nie Yan looked around and found Xie Yao, Xia Ling, Zhai Hao, and his other classmates gathered off in a corner. There was also the unpleasant face of Liu Rui among them.

Xia Ling and Zhai Hao stood between Liu Rui and Xie Yao to stop him from pestering her.

Nie Yan suddenly felt this couple was too lovely.

Xie Yao appeared to be anxiously waiting for someone. A smile immediately surfaced on her face when she spotted Nie Yan walking over.

“You’re finally here! I was just about to give you a call,” Xie Yao cheerfully greeted.

Liu Rui’s face darkened after seeing Xie Yao’s expression turn bright. He balled his hands into a fist. He hated Nie Yan, wishing for nothing more than to beat him up. However, their match was still fresh in his mind. It had planted a deep seed of fear in his heart, and he simply couldn’t muster up the courage to confront him.

Nie Yan nodded at Xie Yao, then turned to Liu Rui with a friendly smile. “Oh! Liu Rui, you’re back! I’m truly sorry about what happened last time. I really thought you could handle that simple kick, but I ended up injuring you heavily instead.” He appeared quite sincere. Those who didn’t know him might actually believe he was genuinely remorseful.

Liu Rui subconsciously took a step back before recalling they weren’t in the fighting ring. “It’s nothing. I’m fine now.” He awkwardly chuckled with an ugly expression on his face. He inwardly gnashed his teeth in anger. Nie Yan’s words pierced his heart like daggers.

Nie Yan wrapped his arm around Liu Rui’s neck and patted his chest. “Haha! You’re right! We’re all in the same class. We can’t take such trivial things to heart.”

Trivial? Is that what you call trivial, hospitalizing me for weeks? Liu Rui felt his blood boil at the heavy pats to his chest. He wanted to cuss Nie Yan out. But with Xie Yao and his other classmates present, it wouldn’t look good for him if he turned hostile out of nowhere. He forced a smile on his face with great difficulty. “No problem. I’ve already put it behind me. It’s my turn for the examination, I've got to go. I’ll see you guys later.”

Lui Rui pushed Nie Yan aside and hurried over to the examination area.

Nie Yan’s lips cracked into a mischievous smile. Xie Yao looked at him with a hint of admonishment. How could she not see through his actions? However, she detested Liu Rui, so she didn’t speak up.

Nie Yan, Xie Yao, Zhai Hao, Xia Ling, and their other classmates continued chatting.

A while later, Nie Yan and Xie Yao looked over toward the examination area. Liu Rui was starting his exam. His results were posted up in real time for all participants to see.
