C22 Just Enough

"Next is the final group!"

The Bright Moon Martial Mansion’s Mentor who was in charge of the assessment said, and everyone's attention immediately turned back from He Chao.

Only the last group was left?

Chu Hen frowned slightly. It seemed that he would not be able to participate in the assessment today.

Haozi also helplessly shook his head, then patting Chu Hen on the shoulder and laughing, "It's fine, just wait a few more days! Anyway, there are a lot of people who want to register for Bright Moon Martial Mansion! "

Chu Hen smiled and nodded.

One by one, along with the teachers in charge of the assessment made a roll call, the young students went up to the platform.

Most of the people had nervous expressions on their faces. It was definitely not an easy thing to endure during the time of burning one fourth of an incense from Liu Meng.

Other than testing everyone's teamwork, at least there should be a genius like He Chao who was able to lead. Only then would they have a huge hope of passing.

After a short while, nearly thirty people had gathered on the stage.

"Huh?" The instructor in charge of the assessment suddenly let out a surprised sound.

What was going on? What happened?

Everyone looked confused.

The man frowned and said, "Sorry, I calculated wrong. There are only 29 people, we need 30 in a group."

"Damn, it can't be!"

"What the hell! We couldn't beat him in the first place, now we're even less-numbered. "

All sorts of complaints rose and fell, and even the teacher in charge of the exam was in a bit of a dilemma. After all, he couldn't control the total number of people in each exam. He would often encounter a situation that there were few more people, or a few less people.

Normally, these students would be made to wait until next time.

However, there was only one person missing today. If they were made wait until the next time, it would inevitably make them angry.

"There's one here!"

At this point, Haozi scurried up the stage like a wisp of smoke, faced the examination instructor, and said, "Instructor Li Wei, just now, there was a student who just applied."

"Oh?"

Everyone's eyes lit up.

Haozi hurriedly waved at Chu Hen. "Junior Brother Chu HenChu Hen, come over here quickly, hehe, you're really lucky!"

Everyone's gaze landed on Chu Hen, upon seeing this unfamiliar handsome face, the 29 people on the stage shook their heads at the same time.

"Who is him?"

"Who knows? I don't know him."

"He probably came from some small place."

Amidst everyone's discussion, Chu Hen steadily walked up the stage.

Mentor Li Wei roughly glanced at him, and then took a brush dipped in ink from the other working staff.

"Name, age, and place of residence?"

"Chu Hen, sixteen, come from the Huoyan City." Haozi answered.

As soon as they heard the three words "Huoyan City", the entire stage was immediately filled with sighs.

Each and every one of them looked at Chu Hen with eyes filled with disdain and disregard.

In the few places around Imperial Capital City, Huoyan City could be said to be the smallest city. Its fame was unknown, and the number of geniuses who had come out of Huoyan City in the past few years, were pathetically few.

Furthermore, as Chu Hen behave in a low profile, he did not look that eye-catching.

Therefore, in everyone's eyes, adding him alone wouldn't be of much use.

The Mentor, Li Wei, instead felt that Chu Hen's arrival was just right, so he fluently filled in Chu Hen's basic information on the registration form, and said to the last group of students, "Alright, the thirty of you have the time to discuss tactics."

"No need!"

Just as Li Wei finished speaking, a young figure walked out. This person was rather handsome, his entire body revealed a sharp sword aura, which was somewhat similar to the genius He Chao from the previous group.

"There's no need to waste time," The young man glanced at Chu Hen with a gaze mixed with contempt, and said indifferently: “We have already discussed the tactics.”

"But a new student joined in your group." Li Wei said.

"Hur hur." The young man sneered, and the disdain between his brows grew even more. "He's only here to make up the numbers, there's no need to take him so serious."

He's only here to make up the numbers …

Disdain, it’s disdain in public.

However, towards the young man's current attitude, no one stood up to seek justice for Chu Hen, and at the same time, they also looked at Chu Hen with ridicule and amusement.

"He Xian!"

Just at this time, He Chao, who had shone brightly in the previous group, suddenly stood up and scolded the young man: "Be a bit more polite in front of the mentors."

He Chao's voice paused, then turned to Li Wei and said: "Mentor Li Wei, my brother has been spoiled by the family since he was young, he sometimes did not care his words, please forgive him."

He Xian? Younger brother?

The people who were confused immediately realised that the young man with such an arrogant attitude was actually He Chao's brother.

No wonder he was emitting a sharp sword aura.

Since he was He Chao's little brother, his strength must be extraordinary.

Many students in the last group couldn't help but light up with hope for victory.

"No worries!" Mentor Li Wei was not a petty person, he was not angry because of He Xian's rudeness, then Li Wei turned to Chu Hen and said: "Do you need to discuss and communicate with everyone?"

He Xian did not treat Li Wei rudely, he only looked down on Chu Hen.

He Chao had only apologized to Li Wei, but had neglected Chu Hen.

All happened seemed to be saying that Chu Hen had come to the wrong place at the wrong time.

"Junior brother Chu Hen, why don't you wait for the next assessment!" Haozi was a little dissatisfied with everyone 'shunning' him, hence he spoke up for Chu Hen. It was just that he did not have enough confidence.

Chu Hen laughed, his expression not fluctuating in the slightest.

"There's no need, just do as that senior said. Let's start now!"

In the next moment, the entire arena was in a state of turmoil, and He Xian smiled in a complacent manner, which made Haozi especially annoyed.

Of course, Chu Hen did not give in, he just did not want to make trouble.

"Since that's the case, the assessment examination for the last group will now begin." Li Wei announced loudly.

Immediately after, the Mentors who were in charge of the assessment and the unrelated personnel left the high platform one after another.

"Junior brother Chu Hen, do your best!" Haozi patted Chu Hen's shoulder and encouraged him.

Chu Hen smiled slightly, "I will do my best."

With that, Haozi also walked down the stage. Not long later, only the thirty young Newbie Students and their examiner Liu Meng remained on the high platform.

"Heh heh, little brats, the battle in the previous group made me very unhappy, so I'll throw all the anger on you in this round!"

Liu Meng pointed at the thirty people in front of him with the Broadsword in his hands.

Everyone's expression changed slightly as they inwardly cursed. What did the previous group's assessment have to do with this group?

The corner of He Xian's eyes slightly congealed, and he said with a deep voice, "Everyone, don't worry. As long as you help me break through his defenses, then everyone can pass through without a hitch."

"Understood, Senior Brother He Xian. Feel free to give orders."

"That's right, we will definitely do our best."

He Xian chuckled, and then continued to attack, "Everything is ready, we are about to attack."

The atmosphere on the stage became obviously tense. Liu Meng's face revealed a playful smile, as though an adult was looking at a group of children, "Little brats, all of you show me your abilities!"

"Attack!"

"Boom!"

As He Xian's voice sounded, all the surrounding young students started to group together to attack, all of them revealing their weapons, like a pack of wolves rushing towards their prey.

But they all understood that this' prey 'was far more powerful than any one of them. It was absolutely impossible for them to win in a one on one fight. They could only rely on their advantage in numbers to 'capture' the prey.

"Haha, interesting!" Liu Meng laughed, revealing a mouthful of thick teeth, he then waved the Broadsword in his palm, with the sword tip pointed downwards, it struck the ground solidly.

"Buzz buzz!"

The moment the tip of the sword landed on the stage, a dense white Qi wave immediately swept out in all directions with Liu Meng as the center.

The fierce might of the strong wind charged out like an autumn wind sweeping through fallen leaves.

Everyone was knocked back a few steps.

"Swoosh!"

In the next moment, He Xian transformed into a black shadow as he flew out. In the process of moving, a three feet long sharp Longsword appeared in his palm.

Sword light flashed like shadows and glittered like sunlight

The speed at which He Xian unleashed his sword was astonishing, it was as fast as the wind, immediately arriving in front of Liu Meng, the tip of the sword touching the chest of the opponent.

"Well done, Senior Brother He Xian!" A young man exclaimed excitedly.

Liu Meng laughed in ridicule, and leisurely placed the Broadsword in front of him. "Don't be happy too early."

"Bam!"

He Xian's sword struck at the center of the Broadsword of Liu Meng and the Sword Qi collided with the Strength of True Essence. Liu Meng's feet did not move even half a step.

"Your speed is not bad, but your strength is not enough!" Liu Meng laughed faintly.

"Humph!"

He Xian frowned, he quickly changed his attack, and the Longsword obliquely stabbed towards his opponent's left rib. Liu Meng dodged the attack easily. With a horizontal swing of the Broadsword, he smashed towards He Xian's chest.

But, He Xian was not an average cultivator, with a flip of his body, he dodged the opponent's attack.

The battle between the two instantly caused the audience's eyes to light up.

Although He Xian was only at rank eight of the Vein Opening Stage, his control over the sword was not inferior to his brother He Chao's. Furthermore, He Xian's Sword Wind focused on agility and speed, so under this situation with so many people, he still had some advantages.

"Senior Brother He Xian is truly not bad. This group has a high chance of completing the 'Absolute Kill' again."

"One was He Chao, the other was He Xian. Today, all of our limelight has been taken by the two geniuses of the He family."
