”Yes, Principal, this Vice City Lord also thinks the same.”

Yan Xiao and the rest did not know how to answer, but with so many students of the academy eyeing the placings covetously, and how could they be stupid? Yan Xiao had spent a lot of effort to get this slot, but now she said that she didn't want it anymore? No reason at all? Who would believe it?

Furthermore, it was impossible to select a candidate in this kind of open air, given the conflict between the students. How could they be so hasty and act as though such a good slot was created by the wind?

The dean's smile could not be maintained any longer as he nodded, ”Alright, the plan for today has changed. You all can go back first and receive your notification.”

”Dean, this matter should be settled sooner rather than later. It would be better to select the spots first.” Not to mention the students below, even some teachers couldn't help but say something in a hurry.

The dean immediately narrowed his eyes and looked over. Although the dean's usual smile looked very amiable and amiable, with his strength displayed all over, this expressionless face made him freeze over. The teacher who suggested the proposal immediately became as frightened as a flock of quail.

With that, the dean turned around and was about to leave. Fortunately, it was useless for the students to make such a ruckus.

”Principal, City Lord, I'm sorry we are late.” At this moment, an apology was heard.

Initially, this voice would not attract anyone's attention, but at this time, the headmaster, Kong Jing and Kong Hua, who had good hearing, all looked over. Not far away, Jian Mo, Yan Xiao and the others were already late.

Upon seeing this, the dean's face also darkened in anger.

The person Kong Hua had sent to inform them of earlier actually quickly came over and whispered something into their ears. The sky and Kong Hua's expressions changed, and just as they had guessed, this kind of matter, how could Yan Xiao and the others be absent for no reason, was too illogical.

After that, Kong Hua said a few words to the Principal, who had a change in expression, ”Let's go back first.”

However, with so many people present competing for a placing, they instantly lost all hope the moment they saw Yan Xiao and the others come out. They were naturally unhappy and couldn't wait for Yan Xiao and the others to disappear, and then the spot would definitely be filled with those people who had rejected Yan Xiao.

”The time has already passed. No matter what, Yan Xiao and the rest have lost their qualifications!”

At the moment, Ning Zhu and the rest's expressions were the most interesting, their expressions had turned as though they had smeared a few layers of black at the bottom of a pot, and there was even a metallic cyan sheen, truly beautiful.

Ning Zhu suddenly turned her head towards Gu Zhongying: ”What's going on!”

When Ning Zhu first came to look for Chu Baoyu, he wasn't very confident in Yan Xiao's and the others' spots. She naturally had her own thoughts, but back then, when Jian Mo and her father had fought with Ning Xia, they had all fallen to the lower levels, how could they be easy to deal with? She only thought about that, but she didn't expect Gu Zhongying to have such a pleasant surprise.

It didn't matter if the spots were given to him as a favor or sold out as a benefit, he wouldn't suffer a loss.

So what if she had promised Chu Baoyu to give them a spot, but how could Chu Baoyu and the rest deserve such a spot? To put things bluntly, Chu Baoyu and the others' situation, if the quota was given to them, it would be equivalent to them holding the Suicide Rune in their hands. It would be more beneficial for them, so the three of them shouldn't even think about the quota, as for Gu Zhongying who was also scheming for the same thing.

Hehe, before, it was enough to have Chu Baoyu, this kind of ungrateful bastard. Did she really think that she was stupid, that she was tricked time and time again, and did not have any memory of it?

Since they were using each other's power, it would be too much of a joke if he wanted her to honor any sort of agreement.

Of course, other than this quota, if he needed anything else, Ning Zhu might consider it.

Everything had gone smoothly, and she had even personally confirmed it last night that Yan Xiao and the others, other than Jian Mo, should have died from the combined poison. How could they possibly appear again?

Gu Zhongying was startled as well, ”No, that's impossible, those poisons were arranged by your people to be consumed by them. Furthermore, they were left with the smoke poison yesterday, they must have definitely inhaled it, and we even asked someone to confirm that they are definitely not safe and sound!”

”Don't tell me that they are standing in front of a ghost? They can't possibly be safe and sound, who the hell are these people!?” ”Ahhh!”

Ning Zhu's heart was abnormally agitated, the expression on her face was no longer as calm as before, and instead, it was filled with panic.

On the other hand, the expectations that suddenly rose yesterday had instantly turned into bubbles the moment Yan Xiao appeared. Those expectations had actually turned into her delusions again.

Chu Baoyu and the other two were even more furious. The spots that belonged to them were taken away this time.

Chu Baoyu could not care about her image at all at this moment, and shouted sharply: ”What are you all still doing here, to actually treat such a lack of time, such disregard for Ringfield Secret Area, you have already lost your qualifications!”
