C259 Betting before the test (2/2)

”Fuck, we'll just stand here foolishly like this for more than an hour!”

”That's right. Even if it was the third rank exam, it's been so long already. From the looks of it, he doesn't seem like he's challenging us at all?”

Wang Ying and the others were even more sure that Shen Longxuan was just putting on an act. He wanted to stand here and wait until everyone lost interest.

But even so, he could not be disturbed. Once disturbed, Shen Longxuan would use this reason to give up his assessment, and it would naturally not count.

”What a good plan!” Wang Ying hated him so much that the roots of his teeth itched.

Just as he was at his wit's end, he heard a voice from the distance, ”Who is occupying the stone tablet? Give it to me within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. I want to begin the Level 4 Trial.”

Wang Ying and the rest turned their heads, and seeing the speaker, they were overjoyed: ”Shen Longxuan, Shen Longxuan, you are truly unlucky!”

This person was one of the top ten geniuses of the four peaks, Lu Yuan. He wore a purplish-red robe with a small gold cauldron embroidered on the cuffs.

Even though his appearance couldn't be considered handsome, he exuded a strong sense of confidence. This person was already at the pinnacle of grade-3, and the reason why he was here today should be to pass the grade-4 examination and break through to become a grade-4 apothecary.

If they succeeded, they would be able to stand out from the four great mountains and directly be promoted to their own cultivation methods. Their status would be on a completely different level, and they would also be provided with an extreme amount of resources.

”Senior brother Lu Yuan, I am currently competing with this kid and many of my juniors have placed extra bets, but this guy is clearly trying to stall for time. It's been more than an hour and there's not even a single sound!”

Seeing Lu Yuan slowly approaching, Wang Ying took a step forward and said with a cupped fist.

Just as he was worrying that he could not resolve this situation, a person who could be useful came along. It was said that this Lu Yuan was extremely tyrannical, and he could use him to deal with Shen Longxuan.

Thinking to this point, Wang Ying continued, ”Senior Brother Lu Yuan's time is precious, how about I wake him up and let you take the examination first?”

”Yeah, I think this guy is just being shameless. Why is he wasting his time here?”

”Senior brother Lu Yuan, you've come just in time. Senior brother, please preside over this competition for us. Otherwise, how long will it take?”

He glanced at Shen Longxuan who was closing his eyes, and saw that there was not even a star on his sleeve, he was clearly a newbie, and said immediately: ”I already said, in the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, I will naturally chase him away when the time comes, there is no need for you to say anything more!”

Wang Ying and the others laughed awkwardly. This guy really did not give face to anyone, but it was fine as long as he achieved his goal.

The time for an incense stick to burn was almost up. Shen Longxuan was still the same, he really did not know what he could do to solve this problem.

Seeing the impatience on Lu Yuan's face, Wang Ying and the others laughed, ”Shen Longxuan, let's see how long you can keep pretending. Obediently kneel down, haha …”

”Look!”

Just then, someone cried out in shock. All of the people's attention had been placed on Shen Longxuan, and no one noticed that the stone tablet was slowly releasing light.

”Three beams of light! He actually passed the third level examination! ”

Everyone had a shocked expression, especially Wang Ying and the others, their faces were filled with disbelief. ”That's impossible, the stone tablet definitely isn't accurate, how could a newbie pass the third level examination?”

”Yes, there must be something wrong with the stone monument!” At this moment, he really wanted to cry. If this was true, he would have to take off his clothes and run two laps around the hall.

The hundred thousand Spirit Stone on the side had an even more worried expression. Just now, they were just speaking casually, they couldn't even take out one hundred thousand Spirit Stone.

”Humph, so you're saying that my assessment is fake?” Lu Yuan said gloomily.
