"I really don't understand why we chose this guy to study with us. Let me tell you, you only got to participate in this assessment because of us. You'd better know your place, or I won't let you off the hook," a woman with seductive makeup said viciously.
Dongfang Mian was speechless. How am I supposed to explain to this big sister with so many fans that it's almost unbearable? You only got to participate in this training because of me. If it weren't for your shameless family head forcing you all here, no one would want to sneeze from the smell of your perfume.
Just then, a pungent fragrance wafted over, and Dongfang Mian couldn't help but sneeze.
"Sorry, I blew all the powder off your face. Anyway, we still have time, why don't you go back and touch it up?" Dongfang Mian said.
"What did you say?! I'm going to tear your mouth apart!" the woman yelled, lunging at him.
"What's all this noise about!" An old man walked in with a serious expression.
The previously boisterous crowd instantly fell silent, each one obediently saying, "Elder."
Dongfang Mian stood to the side without saying a word, as if she hadn't seen the old man at all.
Nevertheless, the Grand Elder still kindly asked her, "Miss Dongfang, have you been feeling unwell these past few days? Just tell me, and I'll take care of it for you."
Although the elder spoke sincerely, Dongfang Mian still saw a hint of disdain in his eyes. She shook her head helplessly, feeling exhausted from dealing with this group of hypocritical Yan family members.
Seeing the elder being so polite to Dongfang Mian, Yan Li couldn't help but say, "Uncle, why are you being so polite to her? She was just mocking Yan Rong. I suggest we kick her out and not allow her to participate in this training."
The elder said irritably, "What kind of uncles are you? You have no manners at all. Miss Dongfang was arranged by the patriarch. If you have any objections, go talk to the patriarch. Also, Yan Rong, instead of dressing up all day, you should focus on cultivating and improving your strength."
The elder felt he was about to be driven crazy by his brainless nephew, who even chased him away. Did he really think this training was specially prepared for the Yan family's children?
The elder had a terrible headache just looking at Yan Li, who didn't know how to hide his words and actions. In particular, seeing him reminded him of his sister who was always chattering and causing him endless trouble, which made him even more upset.
Yan Rong was scolded for no reason, and she felt even more resentful towards Dongfang Mian, but she didn't dare to refute the Grand Elder. So she could only stand with her head down, looking pitiful.
Seeing that no one spoke, the Grand Elder said, "You were selected for this training because the boundary has been turbulent recently, and the alien races are stirring. In order to protect the living beings of the Three Realms, our Yan family, as the Demon Lord's family, naturally has an inescapable responsibility to shoulder this task. The training period is three months. After three months, those who pass the assessment can go to the boundary to provide support. This is the best opportunity for you to make contributions for yourselves and earn a higher status for your families. I hope you will cherish it."
The elder's words greatly excited the Yan family disciples, who were all filled with fighting spirit and couldn't wait to go to the boundary point and fight the alien race to the death.
Dongfang Mian only just learned that some members of the Yan family would also be going to the boundary point to provide support, and she felt a headache coming on. Wouldn't these people just cause more trouble if they went?
Looking at the elder, who was smiling smugly like an old fox, I realized that if Chang Lan hadn't reminded me beforehand, I probably would have been influenced by his brilliant words as well.
For some reason, Dongfang Mian suddenly missed the patriarch of the Qianxun family and the unpredictable fat Sixth Elder.
