The End of Ten Days: When Qi Xia Enters the Tales of Rules

Upon hearing Qi Xia's question, the surrounding audience members expressed their incomprehension.

"What do you mean?"

"Why are you suddenly asking this?"

"Why have her audience expectations increased so much all of a sudden? While mine has remained at 30%?"

……

Nuolan suddenly pointed at Hu Yifei and shouted, "She's fake! Everyone else's audience expectation is 30%, but hers is 79%. She must be an imposter!"

Upon hearing this, everyone stared at Hu Yifei warily.

Yes, everyone else's audience expectation is 30%, so why is yours 79%?

Could it be that Qi Xia discovered something amiss and uncovered the strange occurrence?

Hu Yifei panicked when she saw this scene.

"Wrong! That's not it, I'm the real one!"

She had no guard up against Qi Xia at all, and answered his question instinctively.

However, no one listened to Hu Yifei's explanation.

"Still trying to deny it! Qi Xia has already exposed you, what else do you have to complain about?"

"Would Qi Xia wrongly accuse you?"

"Everyone, get out of the way! Even a rabbit will bite when cornered. Be careful, or she might make a last-ditch effort after her scheme is exposed!"

Upon hearing this, everyone stepped back and stared at Hu Yifei warily.

Nuolan, on the other hand, wore a smug smile.

Lin Yi thought to himself, "This isn't right, is it? Hu Yifei is clearly the main character. Could Qi Xia have made a mistake?"

Just as he was about to speak, Qi Xia suddenly pointed at Nuolan and said, "She's the spy!"

Nuolan was slightly taken aback, then giggled and said, "Are you mistaken? How could I be fake? Her audience expectations are so much higher than everyone else's; it's obviously an imposter."

Qi Xia remained unmoved and said, "Her audience expectation level was initially 30%, but then she discovered that arguing with you could increase it. So, she chose to keep arguing with you to increase it, right?"

Hu Yifei was overjoyed upon hearing this.

"How...how did you know?"

Qi Xia's words resonated deeply with her.

At first, she didn't want to argue, after all, the other party was a strange disguise, and if she angered it, she would also suffer the consequences.

However, Hu Yifei discovered that whenever she had a dispute with the other party, the audience's expectations would increase.

Moreover, the more exaggerated the performance, the higher the audience's expectations will be.

In a short period of time, her audience's expectations increased from 30% to 79%.

Although she didn't understand what audience expectations were, she believed that an increase in audience expectations was likely a good thing.

She even wondered if the test would end once the audience's expectations reached 100%.

At this moment, with Qi Xia pointing out what was on her mind, Hu Yifei felt that Qi Xia was a true god.

Nuolan, standing to the side, protested indignantly, "Don't listen to his nonsense, everyone! I'm the real one. Do I look like a ghost?"

She still wanted to rely on her weak and pitiful appearance to gain sympathy.

however.

No one believed her anymore and kept their distance.

Of course, they also kept their distance from Hu Yifei.

The saying goes, "If it doesn't concern you, don't worry about it." Now, they are wary of both of them.

They chose not to trust anyone anymore.

Lin Yi relaxed. He knew that this little bit of pretense couldn't fool Qi Xia at all.

Nuolan pretended to cry: "You guys are really framing me! A bunch of grown men are making things difficult for a little woman like me...do you have any conscience at all?"

She wanted to put on a final act of pretense.

Qi Xia looked at Hu Yifei with a serious expression: "Do you want your audience's expectations to reach 100%?"

Hu Yifei was taken aback, then exclaimed with delight, "You have a way?"

Qi Xia glanced around, took a kitchen knife from the cupboard, and handed it to Hu Yifei.

"Go and cut her head off!"

Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned for a moment.

Hu Yifei pointed to herself, her face full of disbelief, and asked, "Me?"

Qi Xia nodded: "That's right!"

Hu Yifei gripped the kitchen knife with surprise and hesitation, when suddenly the audience's expectations in her mind surged.

Audience expectations increased by 20%.

"Current audience expectation level is 99%."

Hu Yifei was stunned for a moment after receiving the prompt.

It's important to understand that the further you go, the more difficult it becomes to increase audience expectations.

At first, she argued with Nuolan, and the audience's expectations skyrocketed.

But later on, the increase became less and less.

The sudden increase of 20 points made Hu Yifei extremely excited.

Am I going to be the first person to raise expectations to the maximum?

I might even be the first candidate to finish the exam.

Thinking of this, she unconsciously gripped the kitchen knife tighter.

Lin Yi was surprised to find that at this moment, even he, who was watching from the sidelines, had suddenly increased his audience expectation level by 5 points.

After scanning around, I noticed that the other test takers seemed quite agitated.

It seems likely that, like themselves, audience expectations are rising for them.

……

Divine Grace Continent.

Viewers watching the live stream all perked up.

"My God, look! Qi Xia is going to have surgery again!"

"All I can think about is the image of him hacking the little boy to death. Can't this one be a little less gory?!"

"Um... in my opinion, minors should probably avoid this!"

……

Hu Yifei gripped the kitchen knife tightly and approached Nuolan step by step.

The surrounding candidates all started making a fuss.

"Kill her!"

"Kill her!"

……

It was just the two of them arguing; it had nothing to do with them.

Now that it can actually raise their audience's expectations, that's another story.

They all egged them on, hoping the two would make a big splash.

As Hu Yifei approached, Nuolan roared, "Are you crazy? Do you really dare to lay a knife on me?"

Hu Yifei ignored her and continued walking forward.

At the same time, I prayed silently in my heart.

"Just 1% away! Just 1% away, and I'll reach 100%!"

The surrounding examinees were as excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood, all eagerly anticipating Hu Yifei going over to kill Nuolan.

This might significantly increase the audience's expectations in their minds.

At this point, who is right and who is wrong seems to be no longer important.

They just wanted to see a massive massacre.

Qi Xia watched silently from the side, lost in deep thought.

Lin Yi was somewhat worried that Nuolan might suddenly turn strange and harm Hu Yifei.

I was thinking about whether I could help her at a crucial moment.

Seeing that she couldn't scare Hu Yifei, Nuolan decided to transform.

Suddenly, her eyes turned blood red, and her ears became sharp.

Five, six, seven, or eight more tentacles grew on its hands.

Suddenly, he transformed into a giant octopus.

"Holy crap! This guy really transformed out of nowhere!"

"I always said that the more innocent and cute someone looks, the less trustworthy they are."

"Who was it that just now so confidently declared they would protect her?"

"Unexpected! Whoever wants to protect this octopus can protect it; I'm genuinely scared!"
