Chapter 604 - The Past Glory, The Unpleasant Present Day (2)

Xuanyuan Yao’s expression darkened. “Shut up!”

Xuanyuan Jing smiled and chased after the group with his mop.

Lin Feng brought the main group to the southwest side of the dormitory building of the Holy Spirit Academy. There was a feces pit there.

The manure pit was covered with a layer of concrete boards to prevent anyone from accidentally falling in.

Smelling the stench in the feces pit, this group of pampered young masters frowned from the stench, and some even retched.

Lin Feng said without changing his expression, “There are feces buckets and shoulder poles over there. Your job is to pick the feces in the feces pit to the vegetable garden in the shortest time possible and plant a vegetable garden for the school.”

After a pause, Lin Feng continued, “The Black Dome is a poisonous gas mountain. The soil here is barren, so it’s very difficult to successfully plant vegetables. However, there’s a plant demon beast called the ‘Ghost-Wrapping Flower’ in the primitive forest. Their roots can survive in the poisonous gas mountain.”

“In that case, please plant a vegetable garden for the school as soon as possible.”

With that, Lin Feng turned around and left, leaving the 20 Beast Tamers staring at each other blankly.

“Aren’t we here to apply for a cleaning job? Why are we working as dung pickers?” A Light Elf with a pair of pure white elf wings on his back muttered.

Xiao Shu glanced at the elf and said, “If you were really here to be a cleaner, would you have come?”

The elf was speechless.

Feng Yuncheng continued, “We all know that the academy isn’t recruiting cleaners at all. What the principal really wants is to choose two people among us to nurture.”

Feng Yuncheng stared at the smelly feces pit. For once, he didn’t smile cheekily. He said, “It’s very simple. Those who can bear the hardship, stay. Those who can’t bear the hardship, scram as soon as possible.”

“Yes.” Xiao Shu agreed with Feng Yuncheng’s point of view. “Then, is there anyone who wants to forfeit and choose to leave?” Xiao Shu couldn’t wait for them to see the truth and scram.

However, no one turned around to leave.

Xiao Shu didn’t say anything.

At this moment, Xuanyuan Jing took out his phone and opened the Beast Tamer Alliance Meeting. He entered the demon beast database and searched for information about the ‘Ghost-Wrapping Flower’. Very quickly, he found information about the Ghost-Wrapping Flower.

Xuanyuan Jing said, “Ghost-Wrapping Flower is a level 4 plant demon beast. It looks like cabbage with a red root. If you cut off the root, blood will flow. It’s a rare and precious medicinal herb that can be eaten.”

After a pause, Xuanyuan Jing said with a sinister expression, “Ghost-Wrapping Flower only lives in the hinterland of the abyss primitive forest. It’s the favorite food of the level 8 demon beast, the slant-eyed snow wolf.”

Everyone fell silent when they heard this.

Everyone knew that the slant-eyed snow wolves were powerful and numerous. They often lived in groups.

If they wanted to pass the interview test, they had to plant a vegetable field, and the Ghost-Wrapping Flower was the only plant that could be successfully planted in the Black Dome. If they wanted to stay, they had to enter the hinterland of the primitive forest and successfully steal the Ghost-Wrapping Flower from the territory of the slant-eyed snow wolf pack.

After a long while, the Light Elf was the first to say, “The hinterland of the primitive forest is too dangerous. If we barge in rashly, there’s a high chance that we won’t be able to return. I heard that the Holy Spirit Academy will recruit another batch of students in five years. I plan to participate in the next enrollment competition.”

With that, the Light Elf turned around and walked down the mountain.

His voluntary abstention was like a fire that ignited a grassland. Next, five to six more applicants chose to abstain, and left the Black Dome.

Xuanyuan Jing also had the intention to leave, but he glanced at the determined Zhong Luoxue and didn’t forfeit.

In the end, only 11 Beast Tamers stayed. Apart from Xiao Shu, Feng Yuncheng, and the other three alumni, there was also a couple with the cultivation of a Supreme Master. The husband was called Shilin, and the wife was called Song Ying.

The rest were Beast Tamers.

The beastmen had always had a bad relationship with the humans. The five beastmen glanced at Xiao Shu and the others before bringing their companions down the mountain and heading towards the primitive forest.

Feng Yuncheng said to Xiao Shu, “Xiao Shu, let’s team up. I’m a support-type Beast Tamer. If I help you, our chances of winning will be higher.”

The two of them knew each other well and were good friends who had eaten a few meals together. In addition, the two of them were close to Yu Huang. It was indeed the right choice for the two of them to be together.

Xiao Shu nodded. “Alright, let’s team up.”

Xuanyuan Jing also wanted to team up with Xiao Shu, but Xiao Shu and Feng Yuncheng were both good friends of Yu Huang. With his strained relationship with Yu Huang, he really didn’t have the nerve to team up with them.

Xuanyuan Jing smiled and said to Zhong Luoxue, “Luoxue, let’s form a team, okay?”

Zhong Luoxue understood Xuanyuan Jing’s feelings for her. However, Zhong Luoxue was Yu Huang’s fan and had always disdained how Xuanyuan Jing humiliated Yu Huang a few years ago.

Besides…

Zhong Luoxue pursed her rosy lips and asked hesitantly, “Xuanyuan Jing, is what your father did to Ms. Liuli Nuonuo true?”

Some time ago, some posts about the relationship between Xuanyuan Shen and Liuli Nuonuo appeared on the Beast Tamer Alliance’s website. Those posts claimed that the reason Xuanyuan Shen could marry Liuli Nuonuo was because he used despicable methods.

Thus, Xuanyuan Shen’s reputation was in shambles.

When he heard Zhong Luoxue’s question, Xuanyuan Jing’s handsome face instantly turned pale. “He…” Xuanyuan Jing wanted to deny all of this, but could he deny what had happened?

Xuanyuan Jing didn’t want to lie to Zhong Luoxue, but he would also humiliate himself by admitting the truth, so he gritted his teeth and didn’t answer.

Seeing this, Zhong Luoxue understood everything. “Xuanyuan Jing, I know you’re not a bad person, and thank you for liking me…” Zhong Luoxue hesitated for a moment before saying cruelly,” I’m a girl after all. I won’t let myself be with the son of a rapist. I’m afraid that I’ll become the second Liuli Nuonuo. ”

With that, Zhong Luoxue jogged down the mountain.

Xuanyuan Jing punched the wall of the dormitory.

In the past, he was proud that he was Xuanyuan Shen’s son and the young master of the Xuanyuan Clan. Now, he felt ashamed of his birth.
