Hidden genius: Black belly snake

Chapter 57: Disciple exams Part3

Marvin was not someone who liked taking chances.

Even though he had thoroughly prepared for the exams, he still couldn't leave it all to fate and simply rely on his talent.

He had to ensure that he will absolutely be successful and stand at the top of this cycle's disciples.

The examination itself was not that ruthless. Everyone who received 50% and above could easily pass the examination.

But the disciple who places first typically received a treasured cauldron from the royal supplies.

This was not only a perk but also considered a symbol of status and pride.

And Marvin was determined to bag this first place sparing no efforts to get there.

Since he had been living in the shadows for so long, he now wanted to stand in the spotlight with full pomp and flair.

So he had secretly colluded with Dranuk, coming to an arrangement of some sort.

Dranuk leaked him the questions for the examination and Marvin invited the cunning old elf to dine with him in his residential quarters, where his father, the grandmaster would also inevitably make an appearance.

The grandmaster was typically elusive and did not grant private meetings easily.

And Dranuk, who had now been stuck at Master level for decades was dying to meet with him and ask for some pointers to improve himself.

So when Marvin approached him with this opportunity, he jumped at the chance, and a shady alliance was instantly forged.

While these two were silently celebrating their pre-determined success, a tall slender figure graciously walked into the association gates.

The incoming beauty immediately grabbed the attention of several elves including the shady duo.

Master Dranuk saw the snake and his eyes were filled with surprise and disbelief.

He opened and closed his mouth without any words spilling out.

Tang Yue looked absolutely stunning with her neatly braided hair framing her delicate face

The spirit beast who was previously a huge potato sack was now a sensual seductress with an alluring figure.

The other golden robed elf standing next to him also had a weird expression on his face.

"Isn't this the beast consort of the crown prince?" Marvin's mind reeled. "How is she suddenly so beautiful?"

The shady duo looked at Tang Yue utterly flabbergasted, each with their own thoughts.

While Dranuk mostly hated the so-called flower vase and glared at the snake, Marvin was on a slightly different page.

He had unknowingly developed a small crush on the bold sexy snake.

There was even a slight tinge of rosy hue on Marvin's pale chubby face.

By this time, almost all spots in the courtyard were completely filled other than a few spots at the front row, located right next to Marvin's seat.

So Tang Yue inevitably turned around and looked in their direction.

As soon as she spotted the two important figures standing there, her eyebrows furrowed and a small frown surfaced.

But she didn't care too much and casually walked over to one of the spots.

She was more nervous about the upcoming exam than this nosy troublesome duo.

As soon as she came closer, old elf Dranuk did not waste any time and opened his mouth promptly to spout a few derogatory slurs.

But before he could do so, Marvin had already turned around and bowed slightly to greet Tang Yue.

"Greetings, your highness. May I say you look spectacular this afternoon." He tried to pull the edges of his mouth upwards into a charming polite smile.

Huh? Watching the blabbering fatso, Dranuk was forced to close his mouth resulting in a low grunt.

Marvin was very clearly and obviously taken with the damned snake.

The old elf shook his head and threw a threatening glance at the snake, as he tactfully excused himself from the vicinity.

Dranuk did not want to linger around and embarrass himself.

Heh! They might be friendly now, but something told him that the situation would not be the same at the end of the exam.

After all, there was only one first place!

Besides, even if they continue to be on friendly terms later on

Dranuk chuckled as vivid images floated in his mind. It was actually better for him if they remained friendly.

The wastrel son of the grandmaster was bound to target the seductive snake and try to get her for himself.

In no time, she would be nothing but a mere plaything in his arms, instead of a royal consort.

And then, of course, there would be nothing standing between him and the vain snake, as he forcefully shatters her and her prideful eyes into a million pieces.

Master Dranuk threw another hateful glance at the blue snake and joined the other Masters in announcing the examination commencement.
