Chapter 168: Incompetence of Subordinates



There are only seven positions in the first row, corresponding to the seven holy sons of the seven major sects.

Not to mention the Saint Son of the Desire School who has hidden his identity, at least the Saint Son of the Gu School, Jincan, will occupy a place in the first row.

Xue Wuya frowned slightly, weighed the options in his mind for a moment, and in the end reason prevailed.

"Forget it, Meng Wan, just choose a seat in the second row."

"yes."

Meng Wan obediently moved back and sat down behind Xue Wuya, without any resentment on her face.

After Meng Wan sat down, Xue Wuya spoke again and asked Meng Wan for more details about the third round of trials.

Meng Wan smiled bitterly and was about to say something when her face suddenly changed and she spat out a mouthful of blood with a "wow".

His body began to tremble uncontrollably, and he looked extremely weak.

"Holy Son, please forgive me. To escape, I forcibly used the blood sacrifice technique and sacrificed a large amount of blood essence. Even the blood spirit water in the sea of ​​blood was mostly lost..."

Meng Wan's voice was weak, with a hint of panic in her tone.

Xue Wuya frowned slightly, then relaxed his brows, thinking it was natural.

With Meng Wan's strength, it is a bit difficult for her to pass the assessment in such a short time.

If she had not used the blood sacrifice technique, how could she have become the sixth person to pass the third round of assessment before the Golden Silkworm?

As these thoughts flashed through his mind, Xue Wuya began to dislike Meng Wan and his attitude became a little colder.

"Since you're injured, rest well. Did you get the rewards for clearing the first three rounds?"

Meng Wan's face was filled with guilt. "In my attempt to escape, I accidentally punched through the wall and destroyed some of the formations... The voice said I had damaged the formations without reason, and my reward was confiscated."

Meng Wan stood up from the futon and knelt down to apologize, "I have failed the Saint Son's high hopes. I beg for your punishment!"

A hint of worry flashed across Xue Wuya's eyes, "You destroyed the formation?"

Meng Wan blamed herself, "After performing the blood sacrifice technique, I lost control of the power in my body and accidentally destroyed two formations."

Xue Wuya became increasingly displeased. He had originally thought that Meng Wan had the potential to achieve great things as she had been able to pass the third test before the Golden Silkworm, but the result had greatly disappointed him.

Not only did she consume a lot of energy and blood, but even the most important reward for completing the level was lost by her!

“Puff…”

The conversation between Meng Wan and Xue Wuya was also seen by others. Seeing that Xue Wuya's subordinates were so incompetent, Gui Ren was the first to laugh out loud.

"Hahaha, Wuya, don't be too angry. Meng Wan is a newcomer after all. It's her first time entering Duobao Pavilion. It's good enough for her to pass the first three levels of the assessment. You can't expect too much from her."

"Yeah, at least she cleared the level pretty quickly. Those two useless guys below me, I don't know when they'll be able to come out."

Yao Heng raised a smile at the corner of her mouth, which seemed to be comforting, but was actually a joke.

Xue Wuya was a shrewd man after all. He didn't get angry easily and just looked at the two of them coldly.

"Don't be too complacent too soon. It's still uncertain whether your people can escape successfully."

After this incident, the interest of several saints in Meng Wan obviously decreased a lot, and no one had the extra attention to pay to her anymore.

Meng Wan was very happy with this, and allowed the Heart-Eating Bug to eavesdrop on other people's thoughts under the label of incompetence.

She actually heard some interesting things.

For example, her previous frame-up of Yaohan successfully made Xue Wuya mistakenly believe that it was Yaohan who had done the evil to him.

At this moment, Xue Wuya was secretly thinking in his heart how to kill Yao Heng.

For example, Meng Wan also learned the content of the fourth level assessment from the thoughts of Gui Ren, Lu Shao and others.

They speculated that the fourth level test would most likely be a sermon by the magic fairy.

The so-called Demon Fairy's preaching is when a powerful being named Youlian Demon Fairy preaches to everyone.

No one knows where this Youlian Demon Fairy comes from.

However, the test of Demon Fairy's preaching is said to be among the top 30 in difficulty among the 999 tests in Duobao Pavilion.

If you can pass this test, you will undoubtedly receive extremely generous rewards.

But Meng Wan could tell from the thoughts of Gui Ren, Lu Shao and the others that they were also unsure whether they could pass the test of the Demon Fairy's preaching.

But while Meng Wan was lost in thought, a white light flashed, and another figure appeared in the hall.

He is Ghost Blade's subordinate, Chi Yao.

After looking around, Chi Yao walked towards Gui Ren respectfully and handed him something.

"Sir, this is a reward from the spirit of the weapon. I dare not take it for granted. Please review it."

"Hahaha, not bad, not bad. It's a top-grade ghost bead."

Guiren glanced at the things that Chiyao handed over, and he couldn't help but feel in a good mood. It was a rare occasion for him to show sympathy to his subordinates.

"Chiyao, did the test go smoothly this time? Did you encounter any danger?"

Chi Yao was stunned at first, but then quickly reacted, "Everything went smoothly. Although we encountered some troubles along the way, they were all resolved by my subordinates."

"Very good, very good. Since you have obtained this Ghost Pearl, then you can take it. I am the Holy Son of the Ghost Path, so I would not covet such a small thing from you."

Ghost Blade smiled and waved his hand, not forgetting to glance at Xue Wuya with a teasing look in his eyes.

Chi Yao was overjoyed and quickly bowed in thanks, "Thank you, Saint Son, for the reward!"

After saying this, he carefully refined the Ghost Pearl as if it were a treasure.

Meng Wan saw the bite of the demon and sighed inwardly.

In other words, Ghost Blade doesn't think highly of the Ghost Pearl at all, so this treasure is his.

It was precisely because she was unwilling to gamble on the probability that she risked angering Xue Wuya and lied to him that all her rewards had been confiscated.

After all, the immortal spiritual gold that she had worked so hard to dig out was obviously a good thing.

She planned to use this thing to make a spiritual armor for herself, and refine it together with the blood-red soft armor, which would definitely make the blood-red soft armor's defense have a qualitative leap.

If Xue Wuya also took a fancy to her Immortal Spirit Gold and asked her for it, she would give it to him because she really couldn't bear to part with it.

If you don't give it to me, then we will fall out.

So Meng Wan would rather bear the title of stupid and incompetent than give up the treasure she has obtained.

After Chi Yao, several more people passed the test one after another. There were more and more monks in the hall, but the Holy Son of Gu Dao, Jincan, never showed up.

"What's going on? The golden silkworm hasn't come out in such a long time. Is there something wrong?"

Several saints had nothing to do, so they started chatting again.

"The prerequisite for a boat to capsize in a ditch is that there must be a ditch. The third level of the trial is so simple, what kind of ditch is it?"

Lu Shao sneered, "Given the nature of that bastard Jincan, he must have discovered something new and is raising some poisonous insects."

"I don't think I came at the right time?"

As soon as Lu Shao finished speaking, a cold voice sounded.
