A Strange Evaluation
Luo Zheng's mind was shaken by the sound of the bell.
It's finally here …
If this continued, he might have to return to Dragon City!
"That bell, is it summoning the disciples?" Luo Zheng asked.
Xiaoyin saw Luo Zheng's hopeful expression and pursed her lips. "Gongzi Luo, that's just the sound of the bell at the beginning of the month. It's rung once a month …"
"And then?" Luo Zheng asked.
"There's nothing else. It's just to remind everyone that a new month has arrived," Xiaoyin replied.
"… …"
Luo Zheng did not say a word and silently closed the door.
Then, Xiao Yin clicked her tongue and looked at Xiao Xin. Both of them shrugged their shoulders.
After avoiding Luo Zheng, Little Xin said, "It seems that Gongzi Luo is also an impatient person …"
Xiaoyin shook her head. "According to them, Gongzi Luo won't be able to achieve much in the Heart Flow Sword Sect."
"No matter what, I think that Gongzi Luo is quite good. He treats others with courtesy and restrains himself," Little Xin said.
Despite Little Xin's words, Xiaoyin's expression was still grave.
She had been willing to become a servant girl in the Heart Flow Sword Sect because she had a few things to take care of. She was more utilitarian than cautious. If Luo Zheng's performance was extremely poor, Xiaoyin would naturally be disappointed.
But she had no right to choose who to serve, so she could only hide her disappointment in her heart.
When night fell …
The small doors to the courtyards opened one after another.
A white-clothed woman walked out of each courtyard and walked through the alleyways.
The moment Xiao Yin stepped out of the door, Luo Zheng had already sensed it.
His eyes flickered slightly. Then, he released a wisp of divine sense and followed behind Xiao Yin.
Xiaoyin and the other women silently gathered in one direction. The moment Xiaoyin left the alleyway, Luo Zheng felt a vast power sweep over him and annihilate his Divine Sense.
These white-robed women quickly gathered in a palace.
Inside the palace, there were five golden round bamboo tubes, and all the white-clothed women were standing in front of these round bamboo tubes.
Not long after, several women walked into the palace.
The leader was a beautiful woman. She smiled at the girls and said, "A month has passed. Have you girls been serving your young masters?"
Such mocking words were not serious at all. However, the Heart Flow Sword Sect did not know any manners and did not have any taboos.
The white-clothed women also burst into laughter.
"My family's Young Master is amazing. He's always, always …" A woman in white said.
"Always what?" The beautiful woman asked.
"It's always been like this …" the woman in white replied embarrassedly.
Another round of bell-like laughter followed.
Then, the beautiful woman asked about what her young master had been doing during this period of time, how many times he had bathed, how many times he had been under the bed, and so on.
However, he didn't ask about cultivation.
According to the answers of the women in white, the seductive woman placed a tag with a name on it into the round bamboo tube.
The five bamboo tubes were divided into Top, Top, Middle, Bottom, and Bottom.
Depending on the answer, the bamboo tubes would be different.
For four to six hours, the seductive woman had been asking questions. She had also placed a large number of tags into the bamboo tubes.
Only a very small number of people had placed their tags into the Top, Top, and Top. Most people had placed theirs into the Top …
If the name of their young master was placed into the Top, the white-clothed women would be overjoyed. If the name of their young master was placed into the Top or Bottom, they wouldn't be so happy.
Their young master's performance every month directly determined their salaries, and the difference was very big.
If it was the Bottom or Bottom, they would basically have nothing. Fortunately, after so long, no tags were placed into the Top or Bottom.
"Loraine, your young master is a new disciple. How is he doing?" The seductive woman looked at the white-clothed woman beside Xiaoyin.
Loraine answered honestly, "My young master has been on the mountain for more than 20 days. Every day, he plays the zither, paints, and sings poems with us. He's very talented and has a very good temperament …"
After hearing Loraine's answer, the seductive woman tossed her tag into the Top.
Then she looked at Xiaoyin. "Xiaoyin, you've been serving the young master for a month."
The white-clothed women all looked at Xiaoyin. Xiaoyin's expression became unnatural. She stammered, "My young master … set up a barrier on the seventh day and cultivated by himself. Of course, I couldn't see it …"
After Xiaoyin's report, the other white-clothed women laughed again.
"Xiaoyin, did he choose a path?"
"Heart Flow Sword Sect isn't suitable for him to cultivate …"
"Someone like him will be kicked out, right?"
Xiaoyin gritted her teeth and continued to report with a frown. The more she said, the louder the laughter became.
These white-clothed women were all proud of their young masters. If they were blessed, they would treat it as an honor. They didn't have the restraint of ordinary women.
After the flirtatious woman finished listening to Xiao Yin's report, a tag appeared in her hand. The tag just happened to have the two words "Luo Zheng" on it. Then, without hesitation, she threw the tag into the pot. This was the only tag that was thrown into the pot.
At the same time, the seductive woman's casual smile disappeared. She stared at Xiaoyin and said, "The young masters of Heart Flow Sword Sect are the ones who can do whatever they want, not you. If your young master can't get rid of his obsession with cultivation, you should be punished too! I don't want this person to be tossed into the Top next time! "
Looking at the tag on the Top, Xiaoyin's face turned pale. She clenched her fists.
The gazes that were directed at her from all directions were like sharp swords, causing her cheeks to feel like they were on fire.
"Disperse." The seductive woman ordered someone to put away the Top and left with her people.
The white-clothed women also dispersed …
When the women gathered together, there would always be a lot of gossip and discussion.
Walking alone in the crowd, Xiao Yin felt that her head was heavy and her feet light.
Occasionally, someone would call out to Xiaoyin and say, "Xiaoyin, it's a good thing there's no exam this month. There's a problem with the Heart Flow Tower. After the Heart Flow Tower is repaired, you have to be careful. If your young master is expelled from Heart Flow Sword Sect, we will also be expelled …"
These women's words sounded like they were concerned, but they were actually mocking her.
"Yes, I understand …"
Xiaoyin replied, but she felt even more depressed.
When she returned to Luo Zheng's courtyard and met with Xiaoyin, Xiaoyin had already guessed the result.
"Middle?"
"Bottom?"
"It can't be bottom, right?"
Xiaoyin looked like she had fainted. After a while, she said with a worried expression, "Then what should we do …"
"We have to think of a way." Xiaoyin's expression became serious.
"What way?" Xiaoyin asked.
