Chapter 283 - 283: Final Exam (Part 1) (1/2)

Reactions similar from the first point welcomed Lillie's sight as they sauntered down the ship and into the bustling harbor of Yinglong Chao island.

She nodded her head at those familiar faces she haven't seen after departing, and greeted the teachers she acquainted herself with when she would visit their classrooms to give a training session to the students.

One of the Immortal Students' responsibilities is to assist the Drillmasters in training and instructing Sky students once every week.

The purpose behind it was for them to be encouraged to aspire a dream that isn't impossible to reach. Learning directly from a highest ranking student will trigger their strive for success.

Lillie waved her hand back at a group of Heaven students waving enthusiastically at her from afar. They were some of the many Sky students she had mentored before, who appeared to have ascended the rank now.

How nice it was to see that they haven't forgotten her.

”I feel quite envious of the students Grand Disciple Life had mentored before,” Since they have stepped foot on the island, Han Taiyi had rendered back to the sagely lingo. She wouldn't want those stern teachers to come and bite her for her informalities—especially towards a Grand Disciple.

”If I have enrolled a year earlier, I would have been one of those who you have shared your wisdom with.” Han Taiyi was an Earth student when Lillie left.

Just remembering such horrible luck made her want to scream at a pillow for several hours—which she already did.

But the universe didn't seem to hate her as it offered her a great compensation.

”What is there to feel envious? Aren't I standing before you now?” Lillie glanced at her a raised eyebrow. ”You are free to visit me at Grandmaster Wei's residence if you wish to learn lessons from me.”

Han Taiyi nearly lost her balance at Lillie's casual invitation. ”E-eh? Would Grandmaster Wei allow an outsider to enter the Gentle Tempest Courtyard?”

”I do not see any reason why he wouldn't,” Lillie shifted her eyes to look at Chu Lizheng. ”Considering that you two have become my friends. The master would treat you accordingly.”

Han Taiyi's face shone, ”Then excuse us for our impoliteness in advance.”

”We are grateful for this esteemed one's generosity.” Chu Lizheng said.

Death was confused.

Who are these people? When did his Junior Sister made friends? Why did she ignore him and pretend that he wasn't there, tailing behind them?

He's Grand Disciple Death, the first direct disciple of Grandmaster Wei. If someone need an assurance to enter the Gentle Tempest Courtyard, wouldn't he be the best candidate they could ask for?

Why are these two not fawning over him—why is no one fawning over him? They didn't even introduced themselves to him when he was dragged back up the deck by his precious Junior Sister.

”Uhm...” He suddenly felt insecure.

Wuwuwu! If this was the kind of welcome he gets after being gone for a month, then he shouldn't have returned! No one seemed glad that he's back too!

”...I'm here too, aren't I? At least I know that Master Qi and the crew were happy to see me again. Why is no one waving or smiling at me?” His head lowered with a depressed sigh.

Ethan gave him a deadpanned look and pointedly said, ”Everyone must've been tired of seeing you already. And Shengming was gone for many years. Weighing your absence with hers, of course people would miss her more than you.”
