Chapter 368 - First windfall in the Dao Realm (1/2)
”Entrance test?”
Remaining in his Dragon form because he was afraid to turn back into human form and reveal the World Crest on his wrist, Jian Shen didn't understand what Lan Yue meant by not needing to attend the entrance test.
”The Hall of Heroes is so popular that as many as 30% of the residents inside the Dao Realm try to join it. That's why everyone who wants to join must pass the entrance test which eliminates close to 90% of those who want to join the Hall.”
”Those who pass in the entrance exam are allowed to take part in the assessment which decided whether or not you are qualified to join the Hall of Heroes.”
”And that token I gave you is something which is given out by the Hall Lords and other upper echelons of the Hall of Heroes to those who we think deserve the privilege to skip the entrance exam.”
Rubbing the simple-looking golden token in his hand, Jian Shen could heal the arrogance and dignity being excluded by the words written on it.
”The Hall of Heroes. What kind of a place is it?”
”The Hall of Heroes is more or less the same as a sect. The only difference is that even though all the Halls under it are part of the Hall of Heroes, they share a rivalry among each other which is the same as the ones various sects have among each other.”
Nodding its head, the white dragon curiously asked, ”As the Lord of the Sword Hall, why are you giving this to me?”
Blinking her eyes in confusion for a second, the woman began laughing loudly without caring for her dignity.
With the melodious laughter lasting for quite some time, Lan Yue finally said, ”Your dragon form can hide quite a lot of your secrets, but your Sword Qi and Sword Soul cannot be hidden from me.”
”One last question.”
”Ask away.”
”If you wanted to recruit me, then why didn't you help me take care of them?”
Chuckling a little, Lan Yue shook her head and showed disdain in her eyes as she said, ”If you couldn't even deal with those pests by yourself, then it would have only meant that you aren't Hall of Heroes material.”
”Anyway, I've told you all the I need to and gave you the token as well, as for whether you will choose to take the assessment or not, that's up to you.”
Saying so, Lan Yue patted the dragon she was sitting on top of and made it turn its huge body around and started to fly away.
Before leaving though she left behind a few words for Jian Shen.
”Though they tried to kill you, be a little merciful if you can. You know what I mean, right?”
