C25 (1/2)

Since Bai Chen was born, he had only been to Qiu City and Ren City. However, those two cities were incomparable to Canghai City. This city could truly be considered a city, but compared to Qiu City and Ren City, it was somewhat petty.

It was indeed worthy of being called the most famous city in the remote regions of East Star Continent. The size of the city far exceeded the number of people in other places. Bai Chen sighed inwardly.

Walking on the streets filled with pedestrians, Bai Chen felt so crowded that he felt as though he was walking. From afar, he could see a sea of heads.

Canghai Academy was situated at the outskirts of the city, at the very end. This was the information that Bai Chen had obtained from the local people of Canghai City.

After that, the two of them headed towards Canghai City. Although it was just a city, the interior was spacious enough. Bai Chen and Bai Chen left from noon and walked until dusk before arriving at Canghai Academy.

It was already dusk and the number of people on the city streets had lessened. However, there were still many carriages in front of Canghai Academy.

”Today is the last day of the academy's recruitment. If we can't make it, we'll have to wait for another three years.” As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the academy, he heard two people in the very back of the line discussing in low voices.

So it turned out that every three years, Canghai Academy would recruit students for only three days. After missing the recruitment time, one would have to wait for the next three years to enter the academy.

Right now, both Bai Chen and Bai Chen were here at the right time. Today was Canghai Academy's last day of recruitment, and the long queue in front of them was the last batch of students.

”Brother, it seems like we came at the right time.” Yan Le smiled as he spoke to Bai Chen. He couldn't help but sigh at his good luck.

Bai Chen also rejoiced. What a coincidence. If they had come a day later, they would have already missed the recruitment time.

Without further ado, the two quickly lined up behind the line and waited.

One by one, the people in front went over. Some of them had excitement on their faces when they were accepted by the academy, while others had disappointment. It was obvious that they had been eliminated.

”Hmph, even a piece of trash like you wants to enter Canghai Academy. You can't even cultivate for another ten years; you really have the cheek to scram home, trash!”

As they were lining up, a mocking voice entered Bai Chen's ears. He wasn't the only one. The people at the back of the line all heard this voice. However, they were all lining up for the academy's assessment, so no one paid attention to what was happening behind them.

Turning around, Bai Chen saw a group of young men pointing at a skinny man in an alleyway behind him. Their words were filled with mockery and mockery.

In the midst of the ridicule, Bai Chen heard the word 'trash' and a trace of anger flashed between his brows.

In the past four years, Bai Chen had been called trash countless of times, and had been rolled up in the eyes countless of times. The word 'trash' was like a thorn, piercing deeply into his heart, so when Bai Chen heard that skinny youth be called trash, he also felt a wave of unexplainable anger.

”Damn it! Are there any laws? In broad daylight, there are so many people bullying a single person!”

Yan Le also noticed the situation behind him. He immediately shouted in a low voice with an indignant expression on his face.

However, in the eyes of others, his injustice was merely meddling in other people's business. Now that the recruitment was coming to an end, who wouldn't hope to take their own assessment as soon as possible, and who would be willing to meddle in other matters?

”Hmph, I originally thought that Canghai Academy's fame would spread far and wide, and that it would be the gathering place for righteous people. But now it seems like it's only so-so. If we don't go to this sort of place, then that's fine. Second Brother, let's go!” Yan Le coldly said. After which, he flung his sleeves and turned around, walking away from the group.
