Chen Mo, seeing that his deduction was correct, immediately typed: "This isn't hard. If the master were a man, he wouldn't have been so gentle when scolding me. Generally, the term 'bastard' is used by women when they scold men. The master's words, though seemingly harsh, were actually very restrained, indicating strong self-control. Usually, girls are better at this, while men would likely have been cursing left and right."

Li Ranzhu, after reading this, was stunned for a moment before speaking: "Is this guy a detective or a psychologist? To make such an accurate deduction based on so little information, isn't that a bit much?"

Li Ranzhu continued typing: "Regarding this matter, you'd better keep it to yourself! Don't let the other masters know, or I'll send you to the depths of hell! Humph!"

Chen Mo immediately replied: "Beautiful master, please rest assured, your disciple will keep it to himself! By the way, how many masters do I have? Beautiful master, can you tell me? Otherwise, if I meet another master, I'll call them 'beautiful master' and won't be able to explain if they ask why."

Chen Mo's words were reasonable, and Li Ranzhu, seeing them, typed: "You have four masters in total. Besides me, there are three others, but I'm not sure if they are all men."

Chen Mo typed: "Oh, I see."

Li Ranzhu, seeing this, suddenly felt as if she was being led by the nose. Thinking about what happened last night, her heart became restless again. She typed: "Enough talk! Have you found the new IP address yet? Now it's time for the test. Are you ready?"

Chen Mo typed: "Your disciple is ready. Beautiful master, you can start."

Li Ranzhu typed: "3—2—1—Start!"

Immediately, Li Ranzhu launched an attack on Chen Mo. Chen Mo had no means of counterattack and could only defend comprehensively, using the same methods he used to deal with viruses, countering each move.

Li Ranzhu originally thought it would be effortless to deal with Chen Mo, but the situation developed completely contrary to her expectations.

One minute... five minutes... ten minutes... fifteen minutes... thirty minutes...

After half an hour, Li Ranzhu's expression changed from relaxed to sweating profusely. No matter what methods she used, she couldn't break through Chen Mo's defenses, which she found absolutely incredible!

As a top student in the Computer Science department at Huqing University, Li Ranzhu's skills were no joke. Since she started learning about hacking two years ago, her skills had rapidly improved, and she was quite well-known in the hacking community. Generally, no one could match her.

The current situation indicated that this new disciple was no ordinary person. At the very least, his defense left Li Ranzhu at a loss. After thirty-one minutes, Li Ranzhu suddenly stopped, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and typed: "Who are you?"

Chen Mo was also sweating profusely. Li Ranzhu's attack methods were varied, and several times he thought he wouldn't be able to hold out, but he managed to endure. Seeing Li Ranzhu's message, Chen Mo wiped the sweat from his head and replied: "Beautiful master, I can't tell you my name yet, I'm really very sorry."

Li Ranzhu, seeing this, typed: "Who asked you that? I'm asking about your identity! You said you came to learn hacking, but your skills are so advanced. What are your intentions? Are you here to cause trouble?!"

Chen Mo, seeing this, was stunned for a moment and then replied: "Beautiful master, are my skills really that advanced?"

Li Ranzhu thought Chen Mo was mocking her inability to break through his defenses and typed angrily: "Do you have to toy with people like this!"

Chen Mo, feeling wronged, typed: "I'm not, I really came here to learn hacking. If you don't believe me, you can give me your bank account, and I'll pay the tuition right away."

Li Ranzhu, seeing this, was a bit surprised. If the other party had ulterior motives, there would be no need to pay 4,000 yuan in tuition. Since the other party was so insistent, it seemed they were genuinely here to learn. But why would someone with such advanced skills come to learn hacking? Could he really not be here to cause trouble, but be a fool?

Li Ranzhu, thinking about this, typed: "I'll give you my bank account later. Now let's talk about your identity. Since you call me master, it shouldn't be hard to introduce yourself, right? You don't have to reveal your real name or address, but you should tell me what you do."

Chen Mo thought this request was reasonable and replied: "I'm sixteen years old, just finished junior high school, and now I work at a computer specialty store. Master, this is all true, your disciple is not lying."

Li Ranzhu, seeing this, was stunned. After a moment, she typed: "What did you say? You're only sixteen years old? Just finished junior high school?"

Chen Mo replied: "Yes, your disciple is not lying. If I lie, may I be struck by lightning and step on dog poop and have bad luck!"

Li Ranzhu couldn't help but laugh at "step on dog poop and have bad luck," but she quickly regained her composure and fell into deep thought.

Chen Mo waited for a while, but seeing no reply from Li Ranzhu, he thought she was dissatisfied with his oath and continued typing: "If your disciple lies to the beautiful master, may I be a bachelor for life and immediately start practicing the *Manual of the Sunflower*!"

This oath, in Chen Mo's view, was very serious, especially for a man. Being a bachelor was one thing, but practicing the *Manual of the Sunflower* was truly ruthless!

Li Ranzhu, seeing the first part, didn't think much of it, but when she saw the second part, she was momentarily confused. When she understood, her face turned red, and she spat at the screen: "Pah! How shameless! This guy must be lying!"

Li Ranzhu felt that Chen Mo was playing a joke on her, and it was a rather risqué one. She had previously doubted the truth of Chen Mo's words, but now she was sure he had lied. How could a sixteen-year-old boy make such an adult joke?

Feeling quite angry, Li Ranzhu thought she had been played. To regain her dignity, she decided to play along and then find an opportunity to retaliate. She pretended to be naive and typed: "Master believes you. Congratulations, you've passed the first test. Now let's talk about the next test."
