"Ultimately, the leadership at West Martial School came up with a solution.
"If West Martial has the current college entrance examination champion enrolling, then let students from other schools challenge the champion. If they win, the outsider gets to go to Fuling Mountain, while the champion loses their qualification.
"If thereās no champion enrolling, external challengers must face the strongest candidate selected from West Martialās ten.
"Using this method, West Martial has avoided having outsiders reach Fuling Mountain for several years.
"After all, a college entrance examination championās strength canāt be weak."
Bai Xiaolong looked furious.
This calculation is truly admirable.
"So thatās how it is. I, the college entrance examination champion, actually have to become a stand-in.
"Anyway, new students from other schools will inevitably challenge the champion. Two birds with one stone, the principals at Wuda are truly clever."
Su Yue nodded.
As for any battle, he genuinely wasnāt afraid of anyone.
Bai Xiaolong has already mastered the Moon Nether True Scripture; it seems he endured the challenge from the outsider students back then as well.
No wonder heās the student council president, truly impressive.
"Well, itās getting late, Iāve got some things to attend to and need to head out.
"This evening schoolās dormitory will be too chaotic. I suggest you stay at a hotel."
"Nothing to do in the afternoon, you might as well browse the Martial Arts Forum or check out the online marketplace."
After finishing their meal, Bai Xiaolong left early.
Su Yue wasnāt in the mood for training either.
He followed Bai Xiaolongās advice and casually found a hotel.
With so many outsiders gathered in West City, finding a hotel isnāt easy; luckily Su Yue is loaded, and after basically paying a premium, he found one.
...
Online marketplace.
After completing the admission procedures, Su Yue received a martial artistās dedicated phone.
This phone connects to the internal network of Martial Artist Association, with extremely fast speed.
Previously, he could only sneak a look at Yang Lezhiās phone, but now Su Yue finally had his own account.
Lying on the bed, he began browsing happily with the phone.
Huh?
The top-selling item turned out to be Bone-Washing Water?
Su Yue opened the shopping website.
He never would have guessed that the most popular item pinned to the top would be Bone-Washing Water.
Afterward, Su Yue figured out the key.
His progress was too fast, somewhat outpacing student speed.
Actually, at the four martial academies, many students set their freshman year goal as successfully washing bones to become Gold Bones. Now with the start of school, stocking up on Bone-Washing Water is preparing well in advance.
In the morning, leaving school, Su Yue and Bai Xiaolong met a sophomore student.
It seemed he failed at bone-washing, quietly crying alone by the roadside.
Students wanting to wash bones face being forced to seal their grade if they fail by sophomore year.
Recalling the studentās frustration, Su Yue felt a bit fortunate.
Opened the Bone-Washing Water link.
Inside were detailed product descriptions, usage methods, and warnings.
Having used it himself, Su Yue was deeply familiar with the intense pain described in the introduction.
At the bottom, there was actually a Q&A section.
It allows prospective buyers to inquire about issues to those whoāve already purchased.
Answering questions frequently can earn some points in the marketplace, which can be redeemed, akin to gathering mosquito meat.
...
Question: Is the Bone-Washing Water sold here authentic?
Answer: The bone-washing is authentic; the water might not be.

...

Answer: Are the students at B Martial really getting this reckless now?
Answer: I have a friend who used Bone-Washing Water with 19 cards; his passing was peaceful.
Answer: Stop overthinking, just chug it, get it done.
...
Question: Can Bone-Washing Water be used for brushing teeth? Iāve always used platinum liquid.
Answer: You might as well use sulfuric acid.
Answer: I used to act cool too, recently got beaten humble.
Answer: Brushing teeth with platinum liquid can make you student council president. Using Bone-Washing Water can only make you vice president, personal experience, donāt flame.
...
Su Yue closed the Bone-Washing Water reviews; few valuable responses, mostly jokes for points.
Huh, thereās platinum liquid here.
Platinum liquidās sales were also decent, but second-washing martial artists are few, so it canāt be compared to Bone-Washing Water at all.
Below platinum liquid, there are some Q&A:
...
Question: Besides drinking, what else can platinum liquid be used for?
Answer: I generally use it for facial masks, exfoliating and improving skin.
Answer: My family usually stews ribs with it.
Answer: The one above is weak; bathing is the right use for platinum liquid.
Answer: Isnāt this stuff used for car washing?
Answer: Drink this water and you can storm nightclubs with hundreds of beauties.
Answer: You all seem impressive; Iām at 40 cards, only dare to use it for second-washing, oh dear, the lightning in me is glaring.
Answer: I report, the show-off above is at B Martial.
...
Question: Iām from Du Yin, does this water have nutrition like the Ganges water?
Answer: Foreign dogs get out.
Answer: Canāt drink it without cheating.
Answer: Request clarification: do you truly eat with your left hand and wipe with your right? What does a one-handed disabled person do?
Answer: Do you use acrobatics for holding down Wet Ghost Tower?
Answer: Iām female, with a 9-point charisma, Fourth-Grade Martial Artist, thinking about touring Du Yin for adventure; is surviving possible?
...
What a mess.
The marketplace is burgeoning with an overwhelming array of goods, the more he looked, the more dizzying it became, most items he didnāt recognize.
However, Su Yue found the little flower he sent to Mu Cheng.
Turned out this little flower is called āBanxia Linger,ā named by a female martial artist. Although it looks romantic, the price is truly not cheap.
Su Yue then visited the second-hand trade section.
Even more strange things, all sorts of weird stuff abound.
