The Black Beast’s Useless Concubine-Chapter 25
Breaking Off The Engagement (1)
Five days went by quickly.
Bai Ye found it odd that there was no follow up from Yun Mengmeng. The peace did not seem right…
With that worry in mind, Bai Ye arrived at the assessment hall with Ji Fu.
Mu Yunzhan got news of their arrival and quickly went out to personally escort them. He greeted warmly, “Elder Ji, Lady Bai.”
With him in the lead, Bai Ye and Ji Fu skipped the queue to enter the inner assessment hall.
“Look! It’s Master Mu! Is the assessment starting?” The appearance of Mu Yunzhan caught the attention of participants who were already inside the hall.
Mu Yunzhan ignored the shouts and said apologetically, “The first round of assessment has the most people so it tends to get a bit rowdy.” His only goal was to get Ji Fu and Bai Ye to the dignitary table.
“Is it always this crowded?” Bai Ye—who kept a low profile—asked as she watched the stream of people entering the hall.
By her estimates, there were 30,000 to 40,000 people gathered at the assessment hall and Tong City was just one of the five registration centers in Qingyun.
Bai Ye recalled Tong City was the registration center with the smallest capacity, and already she was blown away by the amount of people. If her extrapolation was correct, there were at least 200,000 16 to 25-year-olds joining the Erudition Trials.
It was rare to hear the girl speak up, so Mu Yunzhan did his best to provide a detailed answer. “This is not the most we’ve seen in Tong City. The highest participation was 80,000 but not many can pass the first round of assessments. Based on this year’s participation, I’d say at most 1,000 will get through and obtain a participation badge.”
“1,000? I… Do you think I stand a chance?” Bai Ye’s confidence was shaken after hearing about the high failure rate. She had intentionally suppressed her Mystic Power to a fifth-ranked practitioner’s level—she was worried if it would affect her performance during the assessments.
Mu Yunzhan let out a laugh. “If someone like Lady Bai failed to pass the assessments, no one from Tong City will stand a chance.”
“You really mean that?” Bai Ye had little grasp of her own capabilities.
“Most definitely.” Mu Yunzhan had never seen a prodigy this humble. If one of the Imperial City ladies had Bai Ye’s capabilities, their noses would be high in the air.
“That’s reassuring,” Bai Ye said.
From Mu Yunzhan’s words, she figured the participants who got through the assessments were nothing special. If so, she would not have to worry too much about competition. All she wanted was to find the Dark Spiritual Energy for the little furball in her body.
The other participants would be enraged if they heard her thoughts. Nothing special? Who gave her such confidence?
At that moment, Yun Mengmeng—who had a bone to pick with Bai Ye—stepped into the inner assessment hall. She saw Mu Yunzhan chatting happily with Bai Ye.
The warm smile on the man’s face infuriated Yun Mengmeng. He had been incredibly cold toward her five days ago, yet here he was smiling at Bai Ye. Despicable… Utterly despicable!
In the next moment, a jealous Yun Mengmeng rushed toward Bai Ye, arm wound back to deliver a slap.
