C172 Return to the Outer Court (1/2)
Liu Zhiruo looked at the three of them and said faintly, ”Because you all don't have enough points, you were lucky to be eliminated.”
Hearing the result they had guessed earlier, their faces were brimming with a satisfied smile. They bowed towards Liu Zhiruo and said: ”Thank you, Instructor.”
”According to your potentials, no matter if it's the inner court or the outer court, they will still have some accomplishments. Moreover, it isn't a bad thing to temper yourselves in the outer court first.”
”No matter what, this is your decision. The examination is over, and even if you all regret it, it will be too late.”
Lan Yun replied enthusiastically from the side: ”Instructor, you can be at ease, we will not regret anything.”
Liu Zhiruo looked at the three youths in front of him, the emotions in her eyes extremely complicated.
”There is also this time around. I will not mention all of you. If you act recklessly in the Inner Academy's examination one year from now, you will definitely have something to show for it.”
Looking at Liu Zhiruo's serious expression and her threatening words, the three of them nodded their heads. They knew that Liu Zhiruo was saying this for their benefit.
After that, Liu Zhiruo flew into the distance and the freshmen of the outer courtyard withdrew themselves from the forest. Zheng Zhenyu hesitated because the wounds on his body were too severe, and he was brought back to the Emperor Xuan Academy to be treated.
After a period of waiting, Yi Qinger came to their side. Looking at the three people who had been eliminated, there was a hint of dejection on their faces.
Long Chenhao saw Yi Qinger walking over, and said with a smile: ”Sister Qing'er, you're here.”
”You are already eliminated, yet you can still smile.” ”Sigh, no matter what, it is already over. There is still a chance to return to the Inner Academy if you are more diligent in the Outer Academy.”
Seeing the worry on Yi Qinger's face for herself, Long Chenhao couldn't bear to do this, but he had no choice.
”Sister Qing'er, don't worry. I will work hard and try my best to return to the inner courtyard in a year's time.”
After hearing what Long Chenhao said, Yi Qinger's mood gradually became better. After that, she brought the three of them out of the forest. As they looked at the scenery around them, many things happened.
Long Chenhao's emotions were extremely complicated. Even when he was walking out of the Outer court freshmen at the very end, he did not see Mu Yu's figure and his heart felt empty. He did not know what he was waiting for.
He was hesitating in his heart. He didn't know what kind of mood he should have when he returned to the Outer Academy, but seeing that Mu Yu was about to face her, the change in expression on Long Chenhao's face didn't escape Yi Qinger's notice.
On the way, Long Chenhao found out from Yi Qinger that this place was their arena for the inner courtyard examination. In other words, a year later, Long Chenhao and the others would come to this place once.
Normally, this would also be the Inner court students's training grounds. As for its specific location, Long Chenhao did not manage to figure it out in the end. All he knew was that it was in a special forest that did not have any demonic beasts.
After returning to their dorm room, Yi Qinger secretly walked together with Lin Mengnuo, but Long Chenhao did not ask them about matters between girls.
”Senior Qing'Er, what business do you have with me?”
”Can't you just find our little beauty if there's nothing to do? And you can just call me Sister Qing'er, just like Little Chen Hao.”
Seeing the mysterious smile on Yi Qinger's face, how could she not know that Yi Qinger had something to talk to her about, and also had a very high possibility to be related to Long Chenhao.
The place they were at was a spacious and empty land. There were very few Inner court students s in the surroundings, and a majority of them ran over to take a look at the new junior brothers and sisters.
”Sister Qing'er, you must be joking. If you're talking about beauties, they should be Sister Qing'er.”
Yi Qinger did not care about these empty claims. After looking at her surroundings, she said with a smile: ”For Long Chenhao's sake, you gave up the chance to enter the Inner Palace, it really moved me.
”Sister Qing'er, you misunderstood that the relationship between him and I is only that of ordinary friends.”
Yi Qinger revealed a sweet smile, looked at Lin Mengnuo, and asked in disbelief: ”Is it really just that?”
Lin Mengnuo showed hesitation on his face as his face flushed red.
”Actually, I didn't mean anything else. It's just that when he came back today, he saw that the expression on Long Chenhao's face wasn't right. In the future, when he comes to the outer court, I hope that you can take care of him a little more.”
”We are good friends. If anything happens to him, he will definitely help them.”
Hearing Lin Mengnuo's words, Yi Qinger's face revealed satisfaction.
