Since Lin Yingxue belonged to Beast Tamer clans as well, she faintly remembered that she had seen this person before. If she remembered correctly, his name was Zheng Qing.

“What do you mean by ‘…should be eliminated as it should be…’? Chen An’s capability is obvious to all. He is bound to pass the final round of assessment.”

Lin Yingxue felt most anxious among all of them. God knew how much she hoped for Chen An to join De Yuan College.

She was still waiting for him here.

Others might not know of Chen An’s ability, however, she knew it very well.

It was very advantageous for De Yuan College to have him as a student.

To put it plainly, De Yuan College was actually the place where Beast Tamer clans concentrated on cultivating their descendants, and the power of bloodline could not be ignored. As long as there were talented descendants, every Beast Tamer clan would send them to De Yuan College.

Most of these people had amazing talents and extraordinary abilities.

Eventually, De Yuan opened its noble and strict door to accept a very small number of young people with potential, and this was how the college gradually developed and became today’s First Beast Tamer College.

The assessment was only for those who wanted to get into the college despite not coming from established backgrounds.

For Lin Yingxue, who was the Glittering Fiery Feather clan’s daughter, she did not need to be tested at all and could directly enter the college.

Lin Yingxue looked at Zheng Qing, and realization dawned on her. “Don’t tell me you’re going to…”

“You’re right.” Zheng Qing nodded. “Indeed, there is no need for me to participate in the assessment, but if I do want to participate, I don’t need any reason. Don’t say that I am being a bully. If it just so happens that I am being matched with the person with the most potential this year for the one-on-one assessment… Well, I wonder who will be the winner and the loser… Oh, I’m… so scared.”

A look of disgust flashed in Lin Yingxue’s eyes. She could not stand his weird way of speaking.

Zheng Qing still had more to say. He looked toward the person seated at the highest position. “Dean, am I right?”

The dean nodded, silently consenting to his plan.

Lin Xiaoxiao frowned. This was trouble.

At the end of the meeting, Lin Yingxue still lingered behind, hesitant to leave. From the attitudes of those people just now, although they did not spell it out so as to preserve each other’s dignity, it was already obvious what they were going to do.

She lingered at De Yuan College, waiting for one person—Zheng Qing!

“Lin Yingxue, I suppose you must have known that Chen An has no bloodline, so you made that suggestion to the college. You are very smart, and you know how to persuade and fool those fogeys to agree to it. However, don’t think that you have succeeded.”

Lin Yingxue felt more and more annoyed at Zheng Qing’s words.

“Why are you doing this?” Lin Yingxue was puzzled. “You are an outstanding talent of the Icicles River Carp clan. Chen An hasn’t hindered you. Why can’t you bear the sight of him?”

Zheng Qing laughed. “Yes, although I haven’t met him, I just can’t stand him. Lin Yingxue, instead of talking to me over here, you should worry about Chen An. When he loses to me in public, how will he be able to deal with it?”

“You!” Lin Yingxue bit her lower lip. She knew very well of Zheng Qing’s capability. As the most outstanding person of this generation in the Icicles River Carp clan, Zheng Qing’s ability was way above her.

In particular, Zheng Qing’s beast was the most representative beast in the clan—the Icicles River Carp. So far, no one fully knew how extensive Zheng Qing had developed and nurtured his beast.

If both of them fought against each other, no matter whether it was Wu Wu’s aptitude or Lin Yingxue’s talent, they would definitely be defeated by Zheng Qing.

“Zheng Qing, don’t blame me for not reminding you. Chen An is a special person. I admit that you are indeed very powerful, but don’t become highly conceited. It would be very embarrassing for you to lose to Chen An.” Lin Yingxue was stubborn. She did not believe in herself, but she believed in Chen An.

“Hahaha, what do you mean? Is it possible that I will lose to him?” Zheng Qing convulsed with laughter.

There were some matters that one just could not be sure.
