399 Envy, Jealousy, and Hate 3 (1/2)

The man's words had just fallen into the ears of the crowd when a great roar erupted from the floor!

The youths had been greatly expectant and now, they stared at the man in utter disbelief, unable to stay seated on their seats.

Gu Li Sheng was not coming!?

Why was that!?

Had they changed the format and method in the selection of disciples to be admitted into the Spirit Healer faculty!? The youths were tumultuous as they looked on at the man, asking for further elaboration.

The man looked back at the crowd helplessly to say: ”Master Gu has relayed his message that the Spirit Healer faculty's disciple for this year has already been selected.”

Selected ! ?

The youths were all stunned.

When was the selection conducted?

Why were they not informed!?

The youths started discussing among themselves and many guessed that Gu Li Sheng had altered his method of selecting his disciples and had secretly observed all of their every single action upon their entry into the lecture room.

No one among them knew the exact criteria that Gu Li Sheng had set in his selection of his disciples and now that it was announced that the selection had been done, they could only guess that Gu Li Sheng had been within the room along and had been secretly observing all of them.

That conclusion made many of the youths extremely nervous as they recalled all of their actions throughout the lecture. They tried to think back on whether they had been paying close attention to the lecture or had acted distracted and unfocused. They were all worried that they might have left Gu Li Sheng a bad impression.

Seeing that the youths were all heavily confused, the man could not help but heaved another great sigh before he cleared his throat and said: ”Master Gu has already informed the disciple he had chosen to be admitted into the Spirit Healer faculty and for all those who have not received word by now, it would mean that you have not been selected and need not continue to second guess it any further.”

The youths stared blankly at the man before them and a revelation suddenly dawned upon them all.

The man had mentioned that ”Master Gu has already informed the disciple”. He had said ”disciple”, and not ”disciples”…..
