In the afternoon, Lin Long and Mo Tian returned to the inner court. At this time, more than two hundred people were already waiting in the inner court.
Actually, the announcement of the final results was just a formality. After all, everyone already knew who won and who won.
Therefore, the people waiting here did not seem nervous.
Not long after, the chief examiner of the examination, Qin De, walked out.
Looking at the people in front of him, Qin De cleared his throat and said in an extremely solemn voice, "After the examination, there are 22 people from our Heavenly Fragrance Mansion who will be able to enter the Sky Evolution Academy and become inner court disciples. Next, I will read out the names of the people who will be able to enter the Sky Evolution Academy. Please report to our Sky Evolution Academy in two days."
Next, Qin De began to read out the names of the people who would be able to enter the Sky Evolution Academy.
"Brother Lin, there's me, there's me …" Hearing Qin De read out his name, Mo Tian immediately became excited.
Although he already knew the result, he was still extremely excited to actually enter the Sky Evolution Academy. After all, the Sky Evolution Academy was not an ordinary academy.
But after reading out everyone's name, his expression became somewhat ugly. Qin De did not read out Lin Long's name.
"Teacher, did you miss out on a name?" Mo Tian hurriedly said loudly.
In his opinion, the reason why Lin Long's name was not read out was probably because he had seen Lin Long hand a medicinal pill to Qin De with his own eyes.
Glancing at Mo Tian, Qin De said indifferently, "I did not miss out on a name. I have read out all the names of the people who will be able to enter our Sky Evolution Academy."
"But, didn't my brother Lin Long refine a Purple Yuan Pill? Why did I not hear you read out his name?" Mo Tian pointed at Lin Long and said doubtfully.
"Him? I'm sorry, the Purple Yuan Pill he refined is a defective one. It does not have the effect that a Purple Yuan Pill should have, so he cannot become a disciple of our Sky Evolution Academy." Qin De shook his head.
Mo Tian could not help but look at Lin Long. He had only seen Lin Long hand over the medicinal pill. He did not know whether the Purple Yuan Pill was good or bad.
"Hehe." Lin Long could not help but sneer, "Since it is defective, why did you not say it back then?"
The other party was clearly trying to trick him. At this time, he also understood who was the one who put the clear water. Moreover, only someone with a status like the other party could obtain something like the clear water.
"As the chief examiner, I can speak whenever I want. Do I need your advice?" Qin De's face darkened again.
"Looks like someone wants to take advantage of their position to bully others," Linlong said as he stared at the other party.
Seeing the look in Linlong's eyes, Qin De felt a little guilty. However, he couldn't back down at this time. He put on a straight face and said coldly, "What do you mean by bullying others? If you can't pass the exam, don't blame others. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for not being good enough."
As he spoke, he turned to the Sky Evolution Academy's disciples and said, "Chase this person out. He's not fit to stay in the Heavenly Fragrance Manor."
Seeing his gesture, several disciples of the Sky Evolution Academy immediately rushed towards Lin Long.
"What happened?"
Just as they reached Lin Long and were about to attack, a voice rang out from behind them. Soon after, two devastatingly beautiful women appeared before the crowd.
The younger one was Murong Xue, whom many people could not forget. The older one was dressed in a long, pale purple gown. Her expression was as cold as ice. Although she was a woman, she had a heroic air about her that no one dared to look her in the eye.
At the sight of this woman, many people had shocked expressions on their faces. The few Sky Evolution Academy disciples who were about to make a move immediately stopped.
As for Qin De, he directly walked towards her. His previously stern expression was now replaced with a flattering smile.
"Instructor Ye, what brings you here?" Qin De asked, trying to curry favor.
"Nothing, I just wanted to take a look. However, it seems that Instructor Qin doesn't play by the rules. You've already eliminated all the capable people," the woman said coldly.
It seemed like she'd already heard what was going on before she entered.
Qin De glanced at Murong Xue, who was by Instructor Ye's side. How could he not know what was going on? He felt so guilty that cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He secretly cursed Lin Long for his dogshit luck. How could he have caught Murong Xue's eye? After summoning Instructor Ye, he could only brace himself and say, "Instructor Ye, what you said isn't right. There really is something wrong with the pill he concocted. That's why I didn't let him pass."
He'd already looked into Lin Long's background. He was nothing more than a commoner from a small, remote town. He trusted that Instructor Ye wouldn't pick a fight with him over Lin Long.
"I don't think so. You probably just took advantage of someone else and wanted to kick them out," Instructor Ye said coldly.
"Ye Zhuangya, how can you slander me?" Qin De was infuriated when he heard Ye Zhuangya's words.
Although Ye Zhuangya's status in the academy was higher than his, that didn't mean she could bully him as she pleased.
"Let's not talk about slander first. I just want to ask you, this person was clearly able to concoct a Purple Yuan Pill. Why did you say that the pill he concocted was defective?" Ye Zhuangya stared at Qin De.
Murong Xue said she'd seen Lin Long concoct the Purple Yuan Pill with her own eyes. That couldn't be wrong. Of course, she wouldn't necessarily expose Qin De's shortcomings just because of that. Most importantly, she didn't want the Sky Evolution Academy to miss out on a talent like Lin Long.
"Didn't I already say that the pill he concocted was defective? How do you expect me to pass?" Qin De quibbled.
He planned to stick to this point. In any case, he'd already destroyed the pill. Dead men tell no tales, and as the chief examiner, no one could beat him.
"The pill he concocted was defective? Do you dare let him concoct it again? "Ye Zhuangya said coldly.
"Instructor Ye, you must be joking, right? Everyone here only has one chance, yet you want him to concoct it again? What do you expect the others to think? If that's really the case, I'm afraid our Sky Evolution Academy's reputation will fall to the ground if word gets out, "Qin De retorted.
"Very well. Since Instructor Qin refuses to come to his senses, then we can only meet with Instructor Song," Ye Zhuangya sneered.
"Fine. Then I, Qin De, will wait at home," Qin De said without fear.
He didn't believe that Instructor Song would break the academy's rules over such a trivial matter.
Instructor Song was the instructor in charge of discipline and punishment. Even if there were any conflicts between instructors, he was the one who mediated and judged them.
"Hmph!" With a cold snort, Ye Zhuangya turned around.
However, she didn't leave immediately. Instead, she said to Murong Xue, "Xue 'er, ask this gentleman to come sit with us outside."
Murong Xue's little face reddened. She walked up to Lin Long and said, "Sir Lin, could you come sit with us outside?"
"Of course." Lin Long smiled calmly.
This Ye Zhuangya's status in the Sky Evolution Academy wasn't low. If he had her help, he definitely wouldn't run into any trouble. How could Lin Long let go of such an opportunity?
Under the envious and jealous gazes of the crowd, Lin Long followed Ye Zhuangya and Murong Xue out of the Heavenly Fragrance Manor.
