Chapter 559 (2/2)

Finally, it was time for the special-recruit disciples to take their a.s.sessment. The special-recruit disciples were basically guaranteed to be core disciples. The only reason they were a.s.sessed was so the elders could pick their personal disciples from them. Of course, the a.s.sessment also served as a way to see which of these special-recruit disciples would have brighter futures.

At this time, Shou Xie appeared beside Xiang Shaoyun as they lined up together. He said, ”I knew you would have no problem getting through the test.”

Facing Shou Xie the socializer, Xiang Shaoyun smiled and asked, ”I thought you were a special-recruit? Why are you here?”

”I'm just going through the motions. In any case, I won't be disqualified from this,” said Shou Xie with a smile. ”By the way, I managed to get to know a few geniuses with unique abilities. I'll introduce them to you later.”

”Sure,” Xiang Shaoyun answered.

”So are you going to teach me the devil taming technique or not?” Shou Xie asked as he rubbed his palms.

”I'm telling the truth. I really don't know something like that,” said Xiang Shaoyun seriously.

When Shou Xie saw how serious Xiang Shaoyun was, his face dimmed as he said, ”Looks like you're telling the truth. Well, I will have to search the academy for one, then. I think they will have something like that.”

Xiang Shaoyun nodded and did not say anything else. Prior to this, he had made a new friend, Huo Xudong, who eventually betrayed him. Thus, he had been rather cold toward the friendliness Shou Xie showed.

Now that they were all within the Dragon Phoenix Academy, he was in a much better mental state than before. Thus, his att.i.tude toward Shou Xie had also warmed somewhat. Suddenly, he found that Huo Xudong was also one of the special-recruits. He was even walking beside Di Lin.

At the sight of that, the fury within him started raging. The two people who had betrayed him had actually appeared before him. He had the urge to kill them immediately. Apart from the two, he also saw a beauty, a remarkable and eye-catching beauty who was walking alongside Di Lin.

Her long hair gently drifted about, her robe exquisite and bright, her waistline slender, her chest and rear bountiful, her bearing graceful and n.o.ble. She was akin to a peac.o.c.k with its tail spread, and exuded a sense of cold beauty. Walking side by side, Di Lin and the woman were akin to a match made in heaven, attracting attention wherever they went.

”Di Lin! Xia Yunxi!” Xiang Shaoyun clenched his teeth in fury.

The two sensed his gaze and looked over at the same time. The woman beside Di Lin trembled slightly as her eyes rippled with emotions. At this time, Di Lin's arm wrapped around her waist as the corners of his lips curled up, ”Ah, your former lover. We should go say hi.”

Then, he dragged the woman along as he approached Xiang Shaoyun, ignoring whether the woman was actually willing to do so or not.

”It has been a while. You're still alive? That's amazing!” said Di Lin with a sneer laced with contempt on his face.

Xia Yunxi gazed at Xiang Shaoyun with mixed looks on her face before saying, ”It has been a while.”
