Chapter 003 – Does my decision need an explanation? (1/2)
After successfully going through the appraisal both Yu Long and Xu Fei were filled with excitement. Both their body’s dazzling blood red light could illuminate an area around them of around 10 feet. They both raised their fists and shouted in joy.
And as for the failed Zhao Gu, his appearance was ordinary, even slightly shabby, looking as if he was around fifteen years of age. His blood light had not even shone to more than a foot away, and was extremely weak.
Hearing the judgement, the poor youth looked as if he has lost his last strand of energy, collapsing on the ground with tears falling down his face.
He knew, that from now on, he no longer had any destiny with the martial way.
15 years old was the limit for entering the White Deer Academy. For the poor teenagers like Zhao Gu, who possessed no resources or cultivation techniques, failing the appraisal meant they would have to struggle an ordinary life akin to being an ant.
“Number 8888…”
It was finally Ye Qingyu’s turn.
After handing his nameplate to the supervisor, he walked to the stone cauldron in the middle of the grounds.
In every previous appraisal, Ye Qingyu was eliminated at this stage.
Because even for the lightest eighty pounds cauldron, he could not budge it in the slightest, let alone lift it. His body would not emit the slightest hint of the blood red light,and hence he became the biggest joke of Deer city.
But in Ye Qingyu’s heart, he was clear as to the reason why…
And today, let all the mockery and scorning end.
Because today, he no longer needed to hide his true power.
Ye Qingyu could almost feel the blood in his body burning.
If not for the promise, Ye Qingyu believed that he would have long shocked and amazed the entire Deer city.
But when his palm touched the handles of the rough, cold cauldron and he was yet to lift it, behind him suddenly came the bland voice of the supervisor. “Wait a minute, you’re Ye Qingyu? Nonsense, who permitted you to enter the examination? Right now, you cannot go through the appraisal, just stand aside for now.”
Ye Qingyu halted suddenly, turning behind him to look.
He saw in front of the appraisal ground, behind the big table, and under the cover of a rainbow canopy, a middle aged supervisor with a goatee. He sat on his chair, expressionlessly staring at Ye Qingyu.
This person was the blood qi appraisal ground’s main supervisor.
“Why?” said Ye Qingyu, frowning.
The middle aged supervisor with a goatee did not have the slightest expression and said in a condescending tone:
“Why? Oh, if I let you wait, then you should just wait honestly. I’m the main supervisor here, does my decision need to be questioned by the trash who was consecutively the fastest to be eliminated for four years?
Ye Qingyu was angered, and was about to say something.
But the next instant, a light appeared in his eyes and he saw a youth standing near the middle aged supervisor. The youth’s expression was filled with mockery and contempt, and he was glaring with a poisonous expression at Ye Qingyu.
It was the wealthily dressed youth that he had slapped previously.
Ye Qingyu was suddenly cheered.
So it was this little bastard here causing trouble.
But this little kid was only the child of a merchant family and not a noble, how could he get a teacher of White Deer academy to help him? Ye Qingyu feared the situation was not as simple as it seemed, there was definitely someone acting behind the scenes.
Mindful of this, Ye Qingyu was not impatient anymore.
After enduring for so many years, was there still people in Deer city who had not let down their guards?
Ye Qingyu decided to play with them for a bit, to see who the person behind them was.
Deciding, Ye Qingyu calmly looked at the middle aged goateed supervisor, his eyes bright and laughingly said, “Are you sure you really want me to wait?”
The middle aged goateed supervisor could sense the challenge in the teenager’s voice.
As the supervisor, he felt an anger from being disrespected and coldly said: “You trash, letting you enter the appraisal is just wasting others’ time. Slowly wait, heh, as long as another person is still going through the selection process, then you will still wait until the end.
Ye Qingyu decisively nodded his head. “Okay.”
Then he folded his arms and stood there patiently.
This time, Ye Qingyu did not show his brass badge.
Because in his heart, he was clear that even if the brass badge could deter those wealthy teenagers without much experience, but it could not force the official supervisor of White Deer academy to lower his head.
After all, the academy supervisors did not fall under the rule of the royal family, and their position was relatively high.
Furthermore, Ye Qingyu’s mentality of a prankster had surfaced.
He needed to cause a big incident, to focus the eyes of all Deer city here and then he will announce to the whole city—
The real Ye Qingyu, has returned!
The other side—
“The next one, continue with appraisal…”
The middle aged goateed supervisor let out a victorious smile, and lazily announced that the appraisal will continue.
The power to change and manipulate other people’s fate brought him such pleasure that he was intoxicated.
And the things that happened here, very quickly seemed to have grown wings, rumours quickly spreading out.
In truth, every year at this time, things concerning the ‘Four year champion’, idiot Ye Qingyu no matter whether it was an action or a word, would become a topic of heated discussion.
Originally, perhaps some people had some expectations for this youth.
