Different from treasure boxes, the Prize Wheel showed the different prizes on it, which gave people some idea what they might get.
For example, on the Prize Wheel in front of Fang Qi, he saw items such as the movie – The Matrix, snacks such as Dove Chocolates and potato chips, and special items like Orochi Blood and Magnum Gun, etc.
Mr. Fang turned the wheel that was displayed on the System Interface.
The needle on the Prize Wheel turned around and around.
Slowly, it stopped on potato chips, and Mr. Fang froze.
“... F*ck!”
Mr. Fang almost smashed the System Interface!
Then, he saw that the needle still had a little momentum left, and it slowly moved forward to the next item.
[Beep! You received a movie – the Matrix.]
[New task begins.]
[New Task: Alternative Civilization.

Mr. Fang: “...”
...
For those candidates who didn’t plan to fight for the first place, most of them ended the exam after obtaining enough spiritual items. However, the competition among the top geniuses in this academy exam had just begun.
Of course, the young master who had been beaten senseless didn’t have to think about that. He was already disqualified from the exam, becoming the first person among the seven ancient families who got disqualified from the Heavenly Academy exam in many years.
“Come out.” The young man who seemed to be born with scholarly presence lightly stomped his foot while his gaze rested on a well-concealed hiding spot.
“I’m not in luck!” a flippant voice sounded, “I was hoping for some small opponents but instead got a big one.”
If Fang Qi were here, he would recognize that the voice belonged to Tang Yu.
– Meanwhile, outside the main gate of the Heavenly Academy –
A young man stood tall with purple essence emitting from his body.
Xun Yuan’s eyes widened when he saw a loli, a green-clothed young girl, a blue-clothed beauty, and a girl in a white Daoist robe walk over together.
Xun Yuan, who was waiting to ambush other candidates, felt nervous, and his eyelids twitched. “...”
“Ugh? We’ve arrived at the gate!” Jiang Xiaoyue and her three companions froze in surprise.
They had been staring at the wondrous communication jade in Jiang Xiaoyue’s hand and the messages jumping in the group chat.
“Should we rob this guy before us?” Yue Bai raised her head. “Then, one of us will get first place.”
“Sister Little Bai and Sister Little Qing, do you want to get the first place?” Jiang Xiaoyue blinked her big eyes. “You can take it if you want. If I take it, I’ll have to cultivate with the Old Academy Master, which will leave me no time to play games.”
“Play games...?”
“Yeah,” Jiang Xiaoyue said morosely, “I haven’t gotten the chance to play the Legend of the Sword and Fairy 3 for days. I planned to play it every day after school, but this academy exam has lasted several days already.”
“Sister Little Bai, I tell you that the Legend of the Sword and Fairy is my favorite game...”
Xun Yuan saw the four girls directly walk past him.
“Jiang Xiaoyue, pass!”
“Li Lanruo, pass!”
“Yue Bai...”
“...”
For Jiang Xiaoyue, her goal wasn’t getting the first place, and no one expected her to take the first place anyways.
For her, the Heavenly Academy exam was another battlefield in which the famous young masters gathered from all over the world to reach another summit in life with all the techniques they had learned.
Thunder rumbled in the sky, seeming like it was going to really rain this time.
Big, bean-sized raindrops fell and connected, forming a curtain of water in the world. The space between the sky and the earth all turned grey.
Outside the Heavenly Academy, one side was filled with surging purple essence while the other side was filled with colorful light. The pouring rain seemed to be held up by an invisible force. Despite the inclement weather, some battles were destined to happen.
Except for the dozens of new customers, the shop still had a slow business day as the computers had a low utilization rate. Outside the shop, the rain got heavier, and water drops smashed onto the ground outside the shop and created many dense white water flowers.
“Young Master Yu, why are you coming to this small shop in such bad weather?” In the downpour, some vague voices came closer and closer to the shop.
“Why not?” With a pot of wine in his hand, the newcomer seemed to be in a bad mood. He sounded disappointed, but perhaps he had never held any high hopes at all. It was a mood he rarely showed.
After circulating his spiritual essence, he dried his damp clothes and saw that few people were playing on the computers. In contrast, there were more people sitting in the lounge area.
“Sir, didn’t you say that Coke in your shop can lift one’s mood... Forget it, get me a cup of milk tea.” He waved his hand idly.
There had been few customers in the shop today, but strangely, some people walked in from the downpour in groups of three or two.
In the curtain of rain outside the shop, two oil-paper umbrellas appeared. The umbrellas were put away when they got under the eaves, and waterdrops slid down the tips. The first one was a young woman wearing a pure white Daoist robe.
Her slightly upward slanted eyes looked into the shop. “Xiaoyue, is this the shop that you mentioned?”
“Ugh? How come it is so quiet in the shop today?” Jiang Xiaoyue pushed open the door with her small hands.
“Big Brother! Boss! I brought two new friends with me! They are my senior sisters in the academy.” If she carried a school bag on her back, she would look like an elementary school girl who was just released from school.
“Ugh?” Jiang Xiaoyue looked at the big screen. “What is Boss livestreaming today?”
– In the Half City Shop –
Liu Ningyun, Mo Xian, and the others looked at the screen in surprise. “Is the shop owner going to put the Legend of the Sword and Fairy 3 on the livestream?”
After all, Mr. Fang had been playing the game all by himself every day and had only done the livestream on the first day when he reached the Spiritual State.
Although Mr. Fang didn’t put it on the livestream, there were many players playing the game due to the popularity of the Legend of the Sword and Fairy 1. As for the players who hadn’t played the Legend of the Sword and Fairy 1 before, they had no trouble playing the Legend of the Sword and Fairy 3.
After all, the story for the Legend of the Sword and Fairy 3 happened hundreds of years before the story of the Legend of the Sword and Fairy 1.
“Ugh...? Is this Jing Tian?”
In the original game, there was some display of memories of the characters’ previous lives but not much, and the system version provided more details.
The story was like a complete cycle of reincarnation with stories both in the previous life and the current life.
“This... he doesn’t look like Jing Tian?” Jiang Xiaoyue said in bafflement.
Jing Tian had a rebellious personality. From some aspects, due to his low social status, he was similar to Li Xiaoyao.
However, this man in front of them was different. He was wearing armor and had deep and intense eyes. He had Jing Tian’s looks but not his personality.
“Sir, what are you playing?” the viewers asked with bullet comments.
“It looks like... the Country of Jiang in ancient times?”
