"Young master, good news!" Chen Rong's attendants quickly entered the room and excitedly said, "Manager Cui had already disqualified those two from participating in the selection. Even if they had great abilities, they wouldn't be able to enter the Buried Flower Palace!"
Chen Rong nodded and sneered, "You dared to provoke me, yet you think they want to enter the Buried Flower Palace? That's simply wishful thinking. Right, have you investigated their background clearly? "
"Find out. That Ou Zhiyun is from a small, unranked family. As for that Lin Tian, he's just a commoner. He's not a descendant of a noble family. The two of them have no relatives in the Buried Flower Palace."
"For a commoner to act so arrogantly, I think he must be tired of living!" Go and keep an eye on them. Not only will I prevent them from entering the Buried Flower Palace, I will also make them regret coming here! "
Chen Rong's face revealed a sinister expression. It was obvious that he was ready to kill.
The servant also laughed sinisterly: "These two idiots actually dare to offend young master here, it is no different from courting death. Rest assured Young Master, I have already arranged some men to keep an eye on them. No matter where they go, they will not be able to escape from our Five Fingers Mountain! "
At this moment, one of Chen Rong's lackeys hurriedly walked in, panicking as he said, "Young Master, it's bad, those two people participated in the entrance selection again, and —"
"And what?" Chen Rong's attendant scolded angrily, "Speak clearly. What do you look like in a panic?"
"And they all passed the selection!" The man trembled in fear as he hurriedly said.
"What? Didn't they get disqualified?" Chen Rong was so shocked that he stood up.
His attendant was surprised and loudly shouted: "Explain what happened?"
"Yes, they were originally disqualified, but then someone helped them. Manager Cui did not dare to offend that person, so he let those two participate in the selection."
"Have you found out who the person who helped them is?" the attendant asked hastily.
"It's an old man. Manager Cui said that he can't afford to offend that old man. He asked me to apologize to you, young master, and even asked me to return this to you!" The subordinate handed over a box with both hands.
The attendant brought the box in front of Chen Rong and opened it. Surprisingly, it was filled to the brim with crystals.
Chen Rong's face immediately turned pitch black, and he coldly glanced at the attendants, "Didn't you say they had no relatives in the Buried Flower Palace? Why would anyone help them?"
The attendant was scared and his face turned pale. He kneeled and said: "I am incompetent. Young master please punish me!"
"Stand up!" Chen Rong coldly snorted and said, "Go and find out who it was that helped them."
"Yes, this subordinate will make sure to atone for his contributions. Young master, rest assured!"
… ….
In the exam grounds, Qin Hai and Ou Zhiyun had just passed the selection when the old man with the goatee appeared again.
"He passed?"
"Fortunately, we have successfully passed the selection. Senior, thank you so much! " When he saw the old man, Qin Hai immediately cupped his hands towards him to express his gratitude.
Although he didn't know why this Manager Cui was making things difficult for him and Ou Zhiyun, he and Ou Zhiyun definitely wouldn't have been able to participate in the selection today without the appearance of this old man.
"It's fine as long as you've passed. Just wait patiently. I'll come and find you later."
The old man turned around and left. Qin Hai quickly chased after him and asked, "Senior, may I ask how I should address you?"
"My surname is Yang." Remember, I'm just a nobody in the Buried Flower Palace who raises spirit beasts. You don't need to expect me to back you up in the future. If something really happens, like breaking the sect rules, you all better pray for yourselves. Don't look for me anymore, and I won't see you guys either. "
The old man waved his hand and left without looking back. In the blink of an eye, he had vanished without a trace, as if he was afraid of being entangled by Qin Hai and the others.
Ou Zhiyun excitedly said, "Big Brother Lin, I'm not wrong. Senior Yang must be an elder of the Buried Flower Palace. Otherwise, that Manager Cui wouldn't have allowed us to take the test."
Qin Hai also had some doubts about Old Man Liu's identity. If he was just an ordinary person who raised spirit beasts, then that Manager Cui, who had deliberately made things difficult for them, wouldn't have shown such politeness before finally treating them with such courtesy.
"Forget it, there's no need to think too much into it. Senior Liu has already said that he will not help us in the future, so he will have to rely on his own efforts in the future!" "Let's go, since we have passed the selection, we should go report."
The selection to enter the Buried Flower Palace seemed simple, but it wouldn't be easy to pass without a hitch. Therefore, even though there were a lot of applicants, less than a hundred had successfully passed the examination.
Qin Hai and Ou Zhiyun walked over to the reporting area. After they showed their number plates, they were led to the entrance of the great array. Then, someone led them into the great array.
After entering the formation, the scenery immediately changed. An enormous mountain peak towered. On the mountain were not only all sorts of green plants and medicinal herbs, but also many spirit beasts that roamed the forest. As soon as Qin Hai and the others entered, a group of snow-white cranes flew past them. Their postures were beautiful, and their calls were crisp and pleasant.
The heaven and earth origin energy within the great formation was especially dense. It even formed a layer of misty white fog around the mountain, and the higher it went, the thicker the fog. One could imagine that if one could cultivate within the fog, their speed would be several times faster than it was in the outside world.
Only by becoming an inner disciple would they be qualified to choose a place to build their own cultivation abode in the middle of the mountain. The new entrants, regardless of whether their strength was good or bad, would become outer disciples for a period of time, only able to live at the foot of the mountain.
Fortunately, there were a lot of houses at the foot of the mountain. In the end, everyone was given a separate house. Ou Zhiyun chose a house next to Qin Hai's and had them be his neighbors.
The room was very simple. Other than tables, chairs, chairs, and other furniture, there were absolutely no electric lamps or wires inside the room.
Ou Zhiyun entered Qin Hai's room and looked around. He excitedly said, "Brother Lin, how about I move in with you so we can eat and sleep together. I can also consult you day and night."
Qin Hai shuddered all of a sudden and quickly refused.
"It's fine to eat together, but there's no need to sleep together. I like sleeping alone!"
A look of regret appeared on Ou Zhiyun's face. Fortunately, he did not persist and allowed Qin Hai to breathe out in relief.
After Ou Zhiyun left, Qin Hai came to the courtyard and looked up at the peak of the mountain shrouded in clouds.
The bronze masked old lady was an elder of the Buried Flower Palace. She should have lived near the summit of the mountain. One could imagine that Xiaoxiao was also there.
Xiaoxiao had always been free and unrestrained, free to jump and jump. Now that she had been brought here by the bronze masked old lady and restrained by her every day, she had probably already suffered a lot.
Thinking of this, Qin Hai became increasingly anxious. It seemed that he had to think of a way to see Xiaoxiao as soon as possible. At the very least, he had to know how her current situation was!
