Lightning is naturally white, and soe, but never black However today, a flash of black lightning flashed across the grass field outside of the college
The candidates watched as the black horse bolted out of the band of colts with inco scene, the other candidates were aardly trying to ride their horses, while the red-shi+rted girl stood outside the fence with a tear stained face
They watched Ning Que ride the black horse; his body bent like a defoliated leaf These exa Que had done to this unruly black horse, to suddenly turn her obedient and show her ath
The grass field of the college stretched quite far, but the area fenced off for the exairl had realised what had happened the test had already ended The black mare had leapt ahead of the rest of the examinees with a ridiculous velocity and had reached its destination in nearly half the time it took the others Everyone was astonished
Ning Que jumped off the horse’s back and wiped away the sweat on his forehead He patted the back of the black horse in satisfaction before slapping the horse’s’ butt, ordering her to leave
The black horse was relieved, it was as if she could go back to her peaceful world after experiencing hell She happily rubbed Ning Que’s shoulder before charging away from him The horse didn’t even look back as it ran away faster than when it had ran in the test
The candidates at the entrance of the pen gazed at Ning Que in silence, as if they were looking at a ed to tame the black horse, but they couldn’t for in awe as he passed them
Ning Que felt the piercing gaze of the others on him He frowned, and closed his eyes as he walked towards the location of the archery exaet the attention of the exaht be able to make up for his terrible academic results He did not wish for this attention, but if he didn’t achieve outstanding results in these two subjects, he would never pass the testing
He had extensively prepared for the past few years, spending his entire savings and even gave up his status in Chang An City If he didn’t e, his past tolerance would turn into sorrow Nonetheless, he wouldn’t accept this fate; he would create a sensation to pass the test
Just as he had decided to leave the hall, a young lady blocked his path The girl possessed deep eyebrows and bright eyes She was quite splendid in her red robe fastened by a tight belt Her body eht traces of tears
“How did you do that?” The red clothed girl asks, enraged “Why did she refuse to follow my orders?”
Ning Que thinks deeply before replying straight faced, “Maybe my personality is better?”
“Personality?” The girl replied, dazed before rapidly following up with, “What do you mean?”
“I mean, maybe I have a better luck”
Ning Que spread his hands, s innocently and then politely requested her to move aside He then ran toward the archery hall
The girl looked at hihter of the General, Yun Hui, and was pretty and open-hearted She was so faive her a perfunctory reply She only realised that Ning Que had left lared at his back She stomped her foot, “Who is that?”
The candidates had researched him, and one of the candidates reached out and told her, “So Que He was recommended by the round, don’t pay him any mind Miss Si Tu”
The girl in the red robe was displeased, “If he doesn’t have an unusual background how could he control that black horse?”
“Maybe, it does because of his good luck?” The young man replied aardly
The other younghis eyebrows as he gazed at Ning Que, “He otten the military recoood riding skills However I don’t agree that he doesn’t have a background Out of the one hundred candidates, he was the only one to bring a personal maid This embarrassed the crown prince It’s obvious that he has lived a pampered life It could be possible that he is a noble fro he City”
What is so great about Qing He City? It isn’t even in the dominion of the first e, “Sister Wu Cai, could you check his origin and background? I wish to kno this happened”
Not far away fro An City, there were several candidates recoether A retired captain in his early thirties shook his head as he told his companions, “He couldn’t have accomplished this with luck If he received a military recommendation like we did, he , to have gained these skills…”
As if to prove the hout the examination hall People panicked as the once ta the man who mounted him heavily The burly candidate fell aardly to the turf in shame
Ning Que didn’t know of this conversation, but if he knew that the captain had praised his ability, he ht also appraise himself, “I do have three secret weapons”
His archery, riding and weapons skills were quite good These skills are his best by far, sharpened by his tile He had the confidence to survive co Xuan It was too simple for him to handle the archery examination
