"Winner, Zhenfeng College, Morin!" The examiner announced.
Although Dao Ran had fallen, he hadn't lost consciousness. But no matter how unwilling he was, there was nothing he could do. The examiner had given him a chance, looking at him three or four times before announcing the result, but Dao Ran really couldn't fight anymore. In the end, he could only rely on the examiner's interference to protect his Divine Weapon.
Morin won and walked off the stage, his face full of satisfaction. It wasn't because he had won, but because of the way he had won. All along, he had been helpless against experts with the Soul of Force, but this time, a Soul of Force Proficiency user was easily defeated by him. He felt a great sense of revenge.
"I say, how did you guys end up like this?" Morin had a relaxed expression. Looking at Lu Ping and Su Tang who were injured and exhausted, he couldn't help but feel even more proud.
"It's a long story." Lu Ping said.
"What kind of poison did you give that guy?" Siffin asked. The few of them were still looking at Dao Ran. Compared to Morin's victory, they seemed to be more concerned about Dao Ran's fate.
"Don't worry, how could I be too heavy-handed? It's just a small poison that made him fall, don't tell me it's enough to poison him to death? "Morin laughed.
"Sigh …" Lu Ping, Siffin, and Su Tang all sighed.
"That's too easy on him. Poisoning him to death is a good choice." Siffin said.
Morin's eyes instantly widened, looking at Siffin, then looking at Lu Ping and Su Tang, they all had looks of agreement. He was immediately at a loss. "So vicious and merciless! Who exactly is the assassin? "
"It's a long story," Siffin said, but then he began to tell Morin about what happened during this period of time. From the moment Dao Ran started to clash with them, Morin was already in the state of Soul Severing, and he only got out of it today. He didn't know anything that happened during this period. He only knew who Dao Ran was and what she had done through Siffin's narration.
"Ouch!" Morin was annoyed when he heard this. "If I had known … could I have restarted?"
Of course, that was impossible. Dao Ran had already been carried away by the people of Amaterasu College. A lot of things had happened in this month. When Siffin finished talking about it. Another three groups had been decided on the dueling platform. There were more and more people standing in the winner's and loser's areas, but it was still not enough for 50 people to be seated. No one knew what would happen next, and they could only wait for the remaining students to finish their matches.
In the end, this time's Soul Selection Meet seemed destined to have all sorts of complications. He had just beaten three groups of people when another group of people walked up the stone steps of the Soul Pointing Platform.
Pure white cloaks with a green vine emblem on their waists, with the word "Institute" in the middle.
This was an attire familiar to the academics of the Xuan Army Empire. The Institute's Commission.
Another battle that was about to take place came to an abrupt halt. Everyone looked towards the entrance of the stone steps. There were a total of nine people walking up. Two of them stood in front, while the other seven stood behind them in a straight line.
Even if they didn't recognize them, the color of the nine's attire was enough for everyone to immediately identify them.
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.
Something that could cause two chief inspectors and seven commanders of the Institute's Commission in the Zhiling Zone to come out together was definitely a serious matter.
But there were clearly eight commanders of the Institute's Commission. Why had only seven come? Was the one who didn't come because he had another mission, or was the previous rumor true, that one of the commanders had been killed by someone?
And in the rumors, it was said that the ones who had killed one of the commanders were from Zhenfeng College!
So now …
Everyone looked towards Lu Ping's group. They had already moved to the winner's area, waving their Institute flags. Standing in the corner.
After doing such a thing, they still dared to attend the Soul Selection Meet. These people were too arrogant! Everyone was thinking the same thing.
The two chief inspectors and seven commanders of the Institute's Commission also walked up to the back of the platform. They immediately looked towards Lu Ping's group.
Then, Zong Zhenghao, one of the chief inspectors, suddenly turned his head and glanced at the examiners of the Soul Selection Meet.
One of the twelve examiners immediately walked out and, under everyone's confused gaze, handed an item to Zong Zhenghao.
"It's all very clear," he said.
"Good." Zong Zhenghao smiled. The examiner nodded and then pushed the item to the side, as if he had done nothing.
Zong Zhenghao fiddled with the item in his hand. It was a ball with two round holes. After smiling again, he held the ball in his hand and injected the power of Chong and Ming into the ball from the two round holes.
The ball suddenly began to flash, but then all the light gathered in the air. Then, gradually, there was an image in the air, and there was a sound.
In the image, the flag of Zhenfeng College was fluttering. Under the flag, a young man was holding a blade of grass in his mouth, staring at the front with empty eyes. It was Morin, who had won not long ago.
Morin just stood there, as if he was chewing the grass. The content of the image changed several times, and there were many unexpected situations during the process. However, Morin's expression didn't change, as if he didn't know anything.
Soon, everyone realized what was going on.
It wasn't as if. Morin really didn't know many of the things that happened during the Soul Selection Meet. He couldn't see, he couldn't hear, and he didn't make any sound. All he had been doing was chewing the grass, and occasionally moving his body.
Until he was chosen by Flowing Light, went on stage, tripped by the stairs, and was sent flying by Dao Ran. Then, he began to speak, and began to look around. When he climbed up the stairs again, he connected his spirit.
Those with a bit of knowledge could tell what was going on.
Soul-severing cultivation.
The forbidden skill that the college was prohibited from using, was being practiced on the stage just now, and had reached the final stage.
"What else do you have to say?" Another chief inspector, Yoo Yang-wen, stepped forward and said sternly, murderously.
Zong Zhenghao was still smiling.
Sufficient evidence was much better than catching Morin in the state of Soul-severing. The state of Soul-severing did not completely prove that one was practicing Soul-severing. But now, the shadow-catching ball had recorded the entire process of Morin's state of Soul-severing to the realization of connecting his spirit. The evidence of Soul-severing was irrefutable, and there was no way he could escape.
Yoo Yang-wen asked sternly, and the seven commanders stepped forward. The masters of the college had come out.
"I have something to say." Chu Min stepped forward, and the seven commanders immediately became alert, and the smile on Zong Zhenghao's face immediately disappeared. He, who had always been calm and collected, had a rare solemn look on his face.
"Since when can the examiners of the Soul Selection Meet act as the lackeys of the college? Do you still remember what kind of identity and position you should maintain as examiners of the Soul Selection Meet? " Chu Min, who stood out, did not look at the many masters of the college, but only looked at the examiner who gave Zong Zhenghao the shadow-catching ball, and then looked at the other eleven examiners.
