Miss Ling swept her cold gaze over them before she spoke, "In three days, the Lord will select four of you to be sent to the palace to serve the King. This will be an unparalleled honor for you, so seize the opportunity."
The field was completely silent. No one had excitement or joy on their faces.
Miss Ling had anticipated this outcome and didn't say anything. "Prepare well. Anyone who gets sick or has any problems during these three days will be beaten to death."
This statement completely cut off everyone's escape route, leaving them with no other means to avoid this election.
As soon as Miss Ling left, the hall was filled with the sound of crying.
"Wow, what should I do? What if I get chosen?"
"I don't want to enter the palace."
"Woo."
…
Words like these came out of everyone's mouths. No one wanted to enter the palace, except Bei Yutang. Before, she had planned to find an opportunity to enter the palace after breaking through to the second level.
In the current situation, someone brings you a pillow just when you feel sleepy.
"Don't worry. There are so many of us, and only four people will be selected. It doesn't necessarily mean you will be selected. Don't overthink it."
"Bei Yutang will definitely occupy one of the positions, and the other three positions may not necessarily be her turn."
Many people comforted the crying people and directly pulled Bei Yutang out.
Those who usually looked at Bei Yutang with dissatisfaction and jealousy, looked at her differently at this moment. They all looked at her with sympathy, and their eyes were definitely as if they were looking at a dying person.
In everyone's eyes, the palace was a den of wolves and tigers. Many palace maids and eunuchs died every day, especially the beauties who served the king, who did not live long.
Every once in a while, a large number of beauties would be sent to the palace, but the king's harem was never full. These beauties would die within three months of entering the palace.
Many beauties had their necks broken by the king in less than a minute when they first met him. Over the years, the longest-lived beauty only lived for three months.
Entering the palace to serve the king is like going to the guillotine, and you will die in three months.
Therefore, when Miss Ling mentioned this matter just now, everyone had this reaction. Among them, all the dancers who were outstanding in appearance turned pale, and they were afraid that they would be chosen.
Bei Yutang has the best appearance among them, so she is naturally indispensable for these four places.
Everyone thought Bei Yutang would be scared and would burst into tears, but the expression on her face remained calm, as if she didn't take the matter to heart at all.
Several dancers who often opposed Bei Yutang couldn't bear to see her like this, so they walked up to her.
"Yutang, although you only have three months left to live, at least you have enjoyed three months of wealth and glory, so it's worth it." Ah Cai said with a comforting look, but his eyes showed an unconcealable gloating.
"I heard that the king is handsome. It is a great honor for you, a lowly slave girl, to serve him." Another dancer followed up.
"Oh, don't scare her. Yutang is such a great dancer, maybe her dance can charm the king and help her break the curse of March." Ah Yu said with a smile, but there was a hint of sarcasm in her words.
