40 Start of the second round (1/2)
Bai Yun looked at the list that was displayed on the screen. Pictures of the candidates were put up alongside their names so that team members could identify each other. Bai Yun was surprised to see that the spear youth was one of his team members. He had no idea who the other two were.
As he looked around, he noticed that the other three members of his team were already here. It seemed as if the two people that he did not know where fawning over the spear youth. Bai Yun took a look at him. From his clothes and weapons, it was obvious hat he was from an influential family.
”There you are. Who do you think you are, making lord Zhang wait.” One of then said angrily as he approached.
Bai Yun was stunned. This was the first time he had experienced something like this. Who would ever ask him who he thought he was even in this life, let alone his past life.
He saw Zhang Zi frown upon hearing this. Bai Yun figured that he was someone who lived to fight. He had his spear out even in the hall, while people like Bai Yun usually kept their weapons inside their storage rings. Bai Yun had seen many such people in his past life. Such people often fell quickly, but if they did not, they would reach quite terrifying cultivation levels. He could recognize such people with one look.

Bai Yun looked at the two people who were here. He had seen their names, but after seeing their actions, he simply decided to call them lackey one and lackey two.
He proceeded to ignore them and walked up to the group.
”Too bad we didn't get a chance to have some fun yesterday. I hope to fight you sometime later.” The spear youth said as he approached.
Bai Yun laughed. ”Likewise. I am Bai Yun.” He said introducing himself.
”Zhang Zi.” The spear youth replied.
”Hey, did you not hear me.” lackey one asked angrily.
”Any idea when they will start the second test?” He asked, completely ignoring the two lackeys.
”They simply asked us to gather here in the morning. They did not specify a time. Most likely, when everyone arrives.” Zhang ZI replied.
The two lackeys started to simmer in anger. But since both Bai Yun and Zhang Zi had ignored them, they couldn't say anything. So they simply stood there plotting their revenge. Bai Yun knew what they were thinking of. He had met quite a few such people in his past life.
Since neither Bai Yun nor Zhang Zi were the talkative type, they simply waited while meditating. A short while later Bai Yun opened his eyes. He could see that almost everyone had come. Just now he opened his eyes when he felt the strange creature enter. He was filled with curiosity towards her.
The strange creature looked around after entering, almost completely ignoring the test team list. Then her eyes lit up when she looked at his group, and then ran up to them. ”Big brother Zi, Big brother sword hi.”
For a moment Bai Yun was stunned. 'Am I big brother sword.' he thought.
The strange creature ran up to them. Zhang Zi opened his eyes and looked at her while smiling. ”Its been a while Hui.”
She turned to Bai and asked ”Big brother we meet again. What's your name?”
”Bai Yun.” He replied.
”Hui what are you doing here. This place is dangerous. Why did you sign up for it.” Zhang Zi asked.
”Big sis told me about it. I thought that I would come and have some fun here.” She replied.
Bai Yun looked at the two of them. Even someone like Zhang Zi who was a battle maniac seemed to care for the strange creature. She seemed to be like a rabbit, radiating an aura that made someone look after her. Bai Yun realized that even he did not attack her when her defenses are down.
'I wonder if it is some defensive ability that the creature developed.' Bai Yun thought. 'Further research and a larger sample is necessary.' He concluded.
Suddenly Zhang Zi froze. He pulled Song Hui behind her and pulled out his spear. ”Be careful. He is here.” He said very seriously.
”Huh who is here?” Song Hui asked curiously.
Bai Yun stiffened. 'Did some enemy slip in without me noticing. Impossible.' He looked around sharply.
”Hello there my lady.” A voice was heard. ”Your beauty radiates like the midday sun, blinding all that see you. Would you please accept my rose as a token of my surrender.”
Bai Yun looked around. The multicolored young man from yesterday was sitting on one knee in front of Song Hui, offering one rose towards her. ”Thanks.” She replied accepting it.
”Gong Ming you bastard.” Zhang Zi said pulling Song Hui away. ”Have some honor, you eel.”
Zhang Zi was standing there with his spear pointed straight at Gong Ming. He seemed to hate him with a passion.
Suddenly Bai Yun realized something. He had not sensed Gong Ming approach. Of course, since there was no hostile intent towards from Gong Ming, his god sense had not reacted. But even then to slip past his perception was no easy matter. And even a wary Zhang Zi did not notice him. Not only that, he was one of the people who left early yesterday.
