Chapter 16 (2/2)

Chen An was indifferent to their discussions.

However, the person who could not hold back turned out to be Li Danming. He stood up and explained in a weak, unmanly voice, “Don’t listen to Wang Zhi’s nonsense. He was the one who told us before the match not to hinder him. He was the one who rushed forward regardless of the situation. How could he blame Chen An for the mistake, it is really…”

Li Danming did not have it easy either. He had a cowardly personality, but he still stood up for Chen An to explain the situation. His voice turned softer and softer, and no one could hear what he was saying in the end.

Wang Zhiqi’s face flushed with agitation. “Li Danming, you merely followed what Chen An did and released a beast to join the fight. I don’t believe that you will pass the assessment.”

Before he could say anything, a charming female voice sounded.

“No matter what your level is, you can’t become a student of De Yuan College with your yells and embarrassing antics.”

The person was dressed in red, with a slender golden chain wrapped around her arms and her ankles. As she walked forward, there was a slight pleasant sound.

She had red lips and an extremely charming face, which looked a bit like Lin Yingxue.

The woman walked over, folded her arms, and said slowly, “Li Danming, you have passed the team battle assessment.”

“How is it possible? He obviously didn’t do anything!” Wang Zhi was still not convinced. “Teacher, what you saw just now was Chen An’s fault.”

This woman was a teacher of the De Yuan College, Lin Xiaoxiao.

“There are only two people in Group 12 and Group 13 who did not pass the team battle assessment. One of them is you, and the other is the Silver-Feathered Eagle’s master. The rest have all entered the next round, and they will have to go through one-on-one assessments.”

Wang Zhi learned of his fate through Lin Xiaoxiao’s statement.

Wang Zhi was crestfallen, and he slumped on the ground. After a while, he propped up and got up. “What a lousy De Yuan, I don’t care for it! Let me tell you. Such a lousy college does not even check the candidates for bloodline. I won’t join this college even if you beg me. I will join another college. You will regret not having me.”

Every year, many people would get the cold shoulder at De Yuan College. However, Wang Zhi was the only one who was so blunt.

Lin Xiaoxiao did not speak and just pointed to the door; her meaning was obvious.

Wang Zhi continued to curse and was sent away.

“Go on, it’s the next group’s turn,” Lin Xiaoxiao said as she returned to her original position. When she passed by Chen An, her eyes slanted sideways.

Chen An stared at her face. Her facial features were indistinguishable, but she did look like Lin Yingxue.

He shook his head. It might just happen that they were both adorned in red and gold colors, and hence he had the impression that they looked similar.

The team battle assessment was still ongoing, and Chen An was not in a hurry to leave. He stayed around to watch a few more matches.

Li Danming had been following behind him, like a shadow.

To be honest, Li Danming had a really bad personality. Chen An had never seen such a timid and fearful man. If he often spent time with such people, Chen An would definitely not be able to stand it.

Nonetheless, he was able to act courageously at a critical moment. He had no idea whether it was good or bad. In the battle, he had been able to sense and judge the situation. His Combat Beast, Armor-Piercing Beast, was a good beast and quite powerful.

If he could complete the one-on-one assessment and enter the academy, Chen An would not mind being friends with him.

As for himself, he was looking forward to the one-on-one assessment.

Judging from the other candidates’ quality in the team battles and their Combat Beasts, they were not comparable to Dou Buxiang at all. After watching for a long time, he did not see anyone more powerful than him.

If that was the case, he should be able to pass the one-on-one assessment easily.
