The people who came here were all caught unexpectedly and were completely unprepared. Only the foreigner called Mike had a set of clean clothes in his bag.

After You Huo changed, he remained distant from the others and laid on the sofa without a word. He appeared to have fallen asleep.

Through the arm that covered his face, you could see a stud earring on his right ear. It reflected the light coming from the oil lamp and appeared very dazzling.

The sky should have darkened but every part of the mountain was covered in snow and it was still bright outside.

A pregnant woman looked towards the cabinet in panic. The time on their phones had become erratic and they could only rely on the clock sitting above the cabinet to tell the time: "It's almost six. Could Old Yu have...."

Bang, bang, bang!

Before she could finish her sentence, the sound of something smacking against the door was heard.

Everyone was shocked. They looked over with fearful eyes. The snow piled up on the window was pushed aside and Old Yu's face appeared through the glass. With exaggerated mouthing, he said: "It's me. Open the door."

Everyone was relieved.

Fortunately, he had returned before 6 o'clock and didn't die.

The two snow covered men entering the house was Old Yu and his son Yu Wen.

"How is it outside?" Everyone hurriedly asked.

Old Yu shivered in place for a moment before slapping his face forcefully. He then slapped his son. When they finally warmed up a little, he said: "I went around everywhere but it was useless! No matter where I went, in no more than ten minutes I would see the cabin again. We can't get out!"

"Were there other people? Or houses even?"

Old Yu spoke frustratedly: "No, don't count on it."

Everyone's expression fell into despair.

There was no signal on the phone and the time on it had become erratic. The trees all looked the same so it was hard to tell which direction was north, south, east or west. There was absolutely nothing.

This was their current predicament.

Oh, there was also an old radio that noisily reminded them about the exam.

Exam your mum.

The moment Old Yu stepped in, the radio started to make static sounds.

Just being around it for the entire afternoon was enough for the people present to develop a conditioned reflex. They immediately quietened down and looked at the radio.

[All examinees have been admitted. The exam rules are as follows.]

Old Yu and Yu Wen who had just entered the examination centre gulped.

[The exam is conducted within a set period of time.]

[After the exam officially starts, examinees cannot enter the examination centre. You may not leave the centre during the exam without permission. If there is an emergency, you must follow the instructions and leave with the invigilator.]

[Apart from open book exams, you cannot use mobile devices or other communication tools. Please be considerate and turn them off.]

[The exam is point-based. Examinees must write their answer on the designated answer sheet (except in special circumstances) or the answer is invalid.]

When the radio finished speaking, everything once again turned silent.

After a while, the room suddenly started to fall into discussion.

"Who is the invigilator?"

"There are open-book exams?"

"What's an answer sheet?"

"To think that you're discussing it. You all must be crazy." The tattooed man played with his swiss army knife. You couldn't tell what he was thinking.

"[We will now be distributing the exam papers and the answer sheets. I wish you all the best.]

After the radio was done, it once again died off.

Yu Wen: "......."

Goddammit, shouldn't the exam paper and answer sheet be distributed first???

The pregnant women cried out in panic: "That wall!"

She was referring to the wall above the fire stove. The empty wall that was covered in several knife marks now had a few more words ——–

Topic: A group of travellers came to a snow mountain....

Exam details: The response will be collected every 6 hours. If no points are earned within 6 hours, you lose qualification to participate and will be evicted.

Below that was a large blank area. It was like the response area in a test paper for answers to be written in.

What question is this? What is it asking? What do we answer?

Everyone was confused.

Not to mention 6 hours, even if you gave them 600 hours they didn't know how to earn the points.

At this moment, a gust of cold wind that carried small beads of snow rushed into the room causing everyone to shiver.

They looked over at the source of the wind and saw that You Huo had walked over to the window and had opened half of it.

"What are you doing?!" The tattooed man was furious.

You Huo had one hand in his trouser pocket and his other hand was about to reach out. Hearing the yell, he glanced back. However, perhaps it was because the look was so fleeting, it looked cold and arrogant.

The tattooed man was even more enraged: "Don't you know to say something before opening the window? What are you going to do if something goes wrong?"

"Who are you?"

You Huo threw out those three words and no longer paid him any attention. He again stretched out his left hand.

Old Yu could no longer hold back. He urged his son and whispered: "You ask."

For some reason, Old Yu had always seemed to be afraid of this nephew of his.

Yu Wen shouted: "Brother, what are you doing?"

You Huo retracted his left hand and waved at him. Finally, he gave them his answer: "Testing out the consequence of leaving the examination centre."

Everyone present gasped. Crimson red blood flowed down his fingers onto his palm. With his pale skin, it looked even more shocking.

He casually rubbed it off and once again fiddled around with the windowsill. He picked up a rusty tin can and threw it out the window.

Under everyone's gaze, the tin can was smashed into smithereens and it scattered across the snow.

When they once again looked at the "Exam Details", everyone's eyes were filled with panic.

By the wall, You Huo once again closed the window. His eyes swept past each and every one of their backs.

As for Yu Wen who had some experience with exams....You Huo understood him well.

During the three years of high school, this high school student messed around with love and the wrong group of friends. He would often skip class to play games at internet cafes and he suffered from a strong case of eighth-grade syndrome2. Even now, he had not yet escaped that dangerous period.

It would be better to rely on a dog than him.

As for the others....

Old, frail, sick, pregnant, and even a thug.

All five deadly poisons are present.

The opening question is a death question.
