Chapter 129.2 - Matters Related to the Recruitment Trials
“After the level of your gift and talents have been tested, you will then select your area of expertise and go through another round of trials where you’ll then be allocated to one of the five departments. A representative would be chosen from each of those departments to be an examiner and once you manage to pass that stage, then you can consider yourself to have formally passed the admission.”
Having spoken up till here, he had almost told them everything there was to tell. Qin Fang looked at Yan Xi Wu and Yan Xi Rou and said: “Both of you will still have to work harder, or it will be hard for you to pass the gift testing stage. People like Qing Bei who is a dual element wielder need not worry at all and as for Qing Yu.....”
He paused a moment, thinking that she still had not revealed her true powers. “Qing Yu is also skilled in Medicine and there will be two departments for her to choose from at that time. What I am worried about will be the two of you.”
Yan Xi Rou and Yan Xi Wu lowered their heads, feeling a little ashamed of themselves.
Seeing them like that, Qin Fang sighed. “In this remaining one month, I will do everything I can to bring up your powers, and both of you will have to work extra hard at it with me.”
The two of them then chorused in unison: “We will. We’ll have to trouble Senior to work with us more.”
Qing Yu and Qing Bei found themselves left alone without anything much to do. With the kind of power they possessed, there was nothing much for Qin Fang to worry about. After giving them a little more instructions, he then allowed them to leave.
“Sis, which department do you think we will be allocated into when we are accepted into the Faint Mist Sect?” When he had heard Qin Fang explain about the various departments, he had already wanted to ask her this question.
Hearing that, Qing Yu raised her eyes and looked at him. “What? You want to stick by my side?”
Qing Bei scratched his head. “I just wanted to ask that’s all. It’s all the same whether we are together or not as we’ll still be in the same sect, so we’ll be able to see each other anytime anyway.”
Qing Yu’s lips stiffened a brief moment before they arced up into a smile. “It is good that you think that way as we will be segregated according to the things we are good at and we might not be placed together. But even if I am not with you, with your current level of powers, no one will dare to bully you easily.”
“Mm.” Qing Bei nodded his head and then went on to ask: “Then are you thinking of joining the Elixir Cultivator department or the Martial Arts department?”
In actual fact, he really wanted to be placed together with Qing Yu. Moreover he has come to learn a little bit about Elixir Cultivation so he might be able to bluff his way through in there. But when he saw the brief look of displeasure on Qing Yu’s face just now, the words that had been on the tip of his tongue were then quickly swallowed back down.
Maybe Qing Yu just wanted him to be more independent!
When he was alone, he could be strong, resolute, and show unsurpassing wisdom. But after being with Qing Yu for too long, he had grown to become so used to relying on her.
