Chapter 119: Shocking the Association

The crowd began chattering.

There were also people who were speculating that Lin Jin might have passed the first realm blood contract assessment.

While the crowd didn’t find it plausible, it wasn’t entirely impossible.

Zhao Pi suspected that as well, and he was noticeably upset by it. Things were heading in the opposite direction from what he originally planned. And at the thought of losing more spirit stones, his heart throbbed in pain.

That would be over a hundred spirit stones.

‘F*ck! When that brat comes out later, I’ll mess him up real bad.’

Sensing that he had lost this battle, Zhao Pi endured his rage so he could vent his frustrations on Lin Jin when he re-emerges from the assessment room later.

He even thought of what he would say to him.

Time continued to trickle away and another long while passed.

“Why aren’t they out yet?”

The crowd was truly surprised this time while Zhao Pi looked extremely displeased. Despite wearing an unsettled facial expression, he was just as curious.

He was curious about what Lin Jin was doing inside.

He couldn’t possibly have passed the second realm assessment, would he?

At this thought, Zhao Pi felt his head spin.

If Lin Jin passed the second realm assessment, he was entitled to move on to the third realm. And no matter if he passed or failed, Zhao Pi would be the one to shoulder his assessment fees.

He was truly going to suffer great losses this time.

Zhao Pi was regretting it now but there was still an ounce of doubt inside him. Even if Lin Jin was a beast appraiser, he couldn’t possibly reach the second realm just two days after entering the Friar Association, could he?

At that moment, the door of the assessment room finally opened.

Zhao Pi got excited, musing to himself, ‘They’re finally out!’

His rage and grievances immediately swelled up and he was about to lash out against Lin Jin. However, he was surprised to see that it wasn’t Lin Jin who came out but one of the invigilating elders.

At that moment, the usually stern and indifferent elder emerged with an excited expression. Ignoring everybody else, he took out an amulet and tossed it upward.

Swoosh!

The amulet formed a ray of light and shot into the sky.

After releasing the amulet, this elder turned around and hurried back inside the assessment room.

Now, everyone, including Zhao Pi, was dumbstruck.

What was going on?

Something interesting was obviously going on inside, but exactly what was happening, no one knew.

And what would shock them even more had yet to come.

Soon, a silhouette swiftly swooped over the crowd and landed.

Upon seeing this person, the crowd quickly paid their respects.

He was none other than Mr. Huangfu. Ranked at least top three among Maple City Friar Association’s mentors, an expert with seventh realm blood contract.

In the Friar Association, upon reaching the fifth realm, one could begin their teaching career. Most mentors could only reach the sixth realm while a handful of prominent figures like Huangfu Ming and Ye Yuzhou could reach the seventh realm and above.

Huangfu Ming hastily made his way into the assessment room without another word.

The crowd started discussing why Mr. Huangfu had shown up here for no apparent reason.

Before they could even end their discussion, another expert flew over from above.

This time, there was more than one person.

“It’s Teacher Luo Beihe and Mr. Yi!” the disciples exclaimed.

Luo Beihe was a female mentor dressed completely in white with a steely expression. Mr. Yi wore black robes while his long white hair and beard swayed handsomely in the slight breeze.

Embroidered on both their robes were six cloud patterns.

“Miss Beihe!” Mr. Yi took the initiative to greet her. Luo Beihe nodded and asked, “Did Mr. Yuzhou come as well?”

Mr. Yi quickly answered, “I heard that Mr. Yuzhou has gone into seclusion yesterday so he might not have time to come over.”

Luo Beihe nodded but there was a visible hint of excitement in her eyes. Then, both of them entered the assessment room in rapid succession.

The huge crowd of disciples outside fell dead silent, no one daring to say a single word.

Next up, a few more other mentors of the Friar Association arrived, all in a hasty manner. Some of them even look flustered as if they had run all the way here.

Right, it looked like it was almost time for recess. The canteen was open and everyone was flocking over in fear of losing out.

It was an insane situation.

Large beads of sweat covered Zhao Pi’s forehead.

He mused, ‘What in the world is going on?’

Simultaneously inside the assessment room, Lin Jin was still in the middle of completing his assessment.

He was standing in a spot surrounded by three large stone pillars. These stone pillars were covered in tightly-packed runes and spells. It was easy to tell that all three stone pillars were ancient structures.

The blood contract assessment was rather simple. The candidate only needed to stand in the center of these three stone pillars and someone on the outside will generate a special force field.

The various symbols invoked on the stone pillars would show which realm level the candidate’s blood contract was at.

Right now, half of the symbols on all three pillars have lit up.

Not too far away, Huangfu Ming who had entered earlier looked shocked.

“Who would’ve thought he could last so long in the fourth realm blood contract’s force field. If he continues making progress at this rate, he’d pass the fourth realm in just a short while.”

The other mentors of the Friar Association nodded in agreement.

One of the invigilating elders commented excitedly, “He’s a great seedling, achieving the fourth realm on his first assessment! His future is limitless I tell you!

“What matters is the fact that he’s not affiliated with any mentor yet. A person of his talent shouldn’t be wasted. He must be guided by a good teacher, and this is the reason why I’ve gathered all of you here.”

The elder began his explanation.

The mentors present agreed wholeheartedly. There were even traces of passion as they stared ardently at Lin Jin.

Given the current situation, there was a high chance he could achieve the fourth realm, making him a fourth realm beginner disciple.

And how many disciples in the Friar Association were at the fourth realm?

Not many.

Just three.

Even Yang Jie, who was deemed by many as the association’s number one prodigy had to cultivate for several years to achieve his current level. Now that a newcomer with such a high starting point had arrived, if they could take this disciple under their wing, all future achievements made by this disciple would only bring honor to their name. They might even get incredible rewards in return.

As a mentor, what could be more attractive than this?

They were rubbing their hands with glee, ready to fight over Lin Jin once he was done with his assessment.

With Ye Yuzhou absent, they had a much better chance of getting Lin Jin under their mentorship. On average, half of the best disciples in the association were affiliated with Ye Yuzhou and there was nothing they could do to prevent it. Old man Ye’s level of cultivation was much higher, and with his status and caliber, the other mentors couldn’t stand a chance against him.

However, today, the heavens had answered their prayers. Old Ye had gone into seclusion.

With this, they now had a chance.

Still, besides Ye Yuzhou, there was another huge mountain for them to cross to obtain their goal. And that was Huangfu Ming.

Ye Yuzhou’s blood contract was on the eighth realm while Huangfu Ming was slightly weaker, belonging to the seventh realm.

But that still made him stronger than everyone else here. Moreover, among Huangfu Ming’s disciples, Lu Yunhe was ranked top three among all disciples and he also had quite a few good seedlings under his care. Hence, it could be said that their largest competitor here was Huangfu Ming.

The mentors stole glances at Huangfu Ming, making notes to themselves that if they wanted to win against Mr. Huangfu, they had to offer more advantages to Lin Jin.

Little did they know that Huangfu Ming had already rejected Lin Jin once.
