Inside an exclusive room in the outer disciple courtyard.
The Xian Clan's member was carefully treating the Xian Bu Yu's injuries. Meanwhile, a creaking sound was startling all the people present as two figures were walking through the opened door.
The ones coming over were Elder Xian and Xian Qingruo.
”Greeting to Grand Elder Xian! Greeting to Young Miss!”
Elder Xian waved his hand while looking at the unconscious Xian Bu Yu indifferently.
”Give him these pills.”
Elder Xian took out a jade bottle that contained some recovery pills inside it and handed it over to one of the Xian Clan's elders.
The Elder didn't dare to dally and swiftly inserted a pill inside Xian Bu Yu's mouth.
A moment later, color returned to his pale face, and soon, his eyelids twitched and slowly opened.
Groan.
A muffling sound came out of his mouth as his consciousness gradually returned. As he awoke, his expression showed a hint of confusion.
”Where is this? How is the examination going?”
Before anyone could answer, Xian Bu Yu sensed an overwhelming presence making his body stiffened. He was shocked by the appearance of the man who was emitting a powerful pressure from his body.
”Greeting to Grand Elder Xian!”
”Bu Yu, do you know your mistake?”
”This…. I-I don't understand…”
Pah!
A solid slap resounded in the room causing everybody to gasp in shock, especially Xian Bu Yu. He truly had no idea of what he did to make his uncle enraged. A wronged expression showed on his face.
”Tell him what happened.”
As Elder Xian gave his permission, Xian Qingruo recounted what happen after he had fainted while glaring at him with eyes full of accusation.
”You promise that we will win but look at what've you done now you bastard!” growled Xian Qingruo angrily.
”W-what?! How can it be… H-How can she did it? I-impossible! It's impossible!”
Xian Bu Yu was unwilling to accept the fact that he had been trashed by a woman whose level was lower than him. His confidence was crumbling as he was yelling in denial.
”You can look for yourself!”
Qian Qingruo pointed at the examination are, at the back of a young woman who was currently preparing to climb to the eight gates. Her eyes filled with hate and envy.
She hated Snowy because she dared to oppose her despite knowing her status and background as if the only thing that Xian Qingruo could be proud of was worth nothing in Snowy's eyes.
She envied Snowy because of her strength and achievement. How can someone without backing like her could have supreme potential? If she could have that talent, would she still be sucking up to Elder Xian and doing those disgusting acts?
'How can she do it? She is just a mere woman!'
Unwillingness and anger were bubbling up in Xian Bu Yu's heart. The scene where Snowy was looking down at him once again resurfaced in his mind. Xian Bu Yu's clenched his fist tighten, gritting his teeth hard.
”Now, do you know what you did wrong?”
”Please forgive me… Uncle Xian… I-I am not lost, yet! Please give me a chance!”
Elder Xian gave a mocking smile as he saw Xian Bu Yu's unyielding expression.
”You know who she is? What is her background?”
”T-this… I don't know… I only know that she is close to Feng Xue…”
”That's why you are a fool! How can you face an enemy without gathering information first? Arrogant! Conceited! And with your empty brain, you dare to scheme and even make your cousin's dignity as a bet?!”
A powerful pressure was once again released from Elder Xian's body making everybody present flinched.
”Please be merciful, Uncle Xian! I know I'm wrong!”
”Good! You're still not that useless,” said Elder Xian while retracting his aura, ”I can give you a chance to redeem yourself.”
Elder Xian summoned an exquisite sword with a red hilt that emitted tyrannical presence and a bloody-red pill from his spatial ring.
”Uncle Xian? This?”
”I can lend you this Crimson Star Sword and also I give you this pill to boost your strength. I want you to make sure that she won't be a problem in the next round. Don't let me down.”
