Chapter 28: Examination
I have never seen such a shameless person before. After seeing Ji Bais unexpected actions Lin Tuos train of thought clogged up and stopped like a bunch of rusted gears. After a pause he managed to utter this sentence with trembling fingers.
Tch you can say whatever you want. I cant accept this errand. Ji Bai turned his head away he had an undaunted look on his face like a dead pig unafraid of scalding water.
Nyaa~ Nyaa Keer white cat-ears drooped as she heard his response. Dismay was evident in her amber eyes. Her small hands were wrapped around each other and a pitiful expression that would arouse the maternal instinct of anyone who would see her was written over her slumped face.
Only after waging a massive internal struggle within her mind did she finally agree to Lin Tuos suggestion to wear this unknown and yet indescribably embarrassing outfit. She had gathered up the last bits of her courage to be brazen enough and ask him to adopt her even after everything she had gone through all she received was just a ruthless rejection. She could only feel discouraged due to this.
Perhaps perhaps he hates me
Erm actually Ji Bai wanted to say something but hesitated. He was somewhat begrudging his decisions this was because he noticed that Keer was in the lounge emanating an aura of disappointment. Ji Bai may have quickly agreed to this matter if it happened a year ago. But as of now he didnt want anybody to approach him; People might misunderstand his intentions but he simply just didnt wish to harm anybody thus even if he was extremely helpless he could only forcefully reject other people.
Oh my! Look at my forgetfulness I almost forgot about official business. Just as the scene was moving towards an awkward silence Lin Tuo patted his head and exclaimed in a serious manner. His words had attracted the gaze of the silent Ji Bai and Keer.
Wait This isnt official business? Ji Bai asked suspiciously.
Oh. Well this is just something in passing. Alright! Lets leave this matter behind us for now Lin Tuo intended to shove this matter behind them and settle it on a later date.
What do you mean? Why do I feel like Ill die within 3 chapters just from your tone alone? Ji Bai narrowed his eyes.
Well thats why I said that this is official business. Lin Tuos expression on his face was grinning he turned his head and patted Ji Bais shoulder.
I forgot to tell you this. But every probation member that enters our organization has two exams they need to go through. The first is a written examination and the other As he spoke up to this point Lin Tuo seemed to have thought of something funny. He looked at Ji Bai maliciously. Mhm a practical examination.
A practical examination? An exam for what? It isnt necessary for a man to be handsome however its necessary for them to learn how to commit vehicle theft or something2?
No. No. No. The purpose of having a practical examination is to assess how well the examinee is able to combine their physical response time capability martial art strength and endurance altogether it is also to test whether they can handle and use the said skills effectively.
Cant you talk like a human being? Ji Bai had roughly guessed what the serf named Lin Tuo was laughing about.
Cough cough. Mhm to put it in common terms youre just there to be thrashed Pfft that came out wrong to put it properly. Youre there for a battle drill. Lin Tuo forcefully stopped the laughter in his heart as he replied in a serious expression.
While they were talking the three had already reached a square-shaped building whose walls were constructed with glass.
Get going! Get going! The newcomers that just entered the group are all ready and waiting. Youre the only one left. Once you join them the whole group can go down for a beating. Lin Tuo ignored the weird gaze that Ji Bai gave him he impatiently pushed the glass door open. His heart was eagerly anticipating the beautiful scene of Ji Bai being beaten black and blue.
Ji Bai gave a faint smile. He could roughly tell what this pleb was thinking about just from his expression alone. As he stuck out his chest he entered the building. On the other hand Keer was still hiding behind Ji Bais back in a shy manner almost as if she was Ji Bais tail.
The interior of the building was in a rectangular shape without any excessive ornaments lying about. In the middle was a rectangular pit surrounded by iron fences below it was a true-to-form arena. As if they were intentionally trying to prevent anything being hit the walls of the pit were wrapped up with various types of mechanical armor and lacquered wood chips.
While there wasnt anyone on the upper layer the bottom of the pit was currently very lively.
There were a group of teenagers wearing protective equipment like chain-mails shoulder guards and knee-guards. Longswords spears and various sorts of knightly weapons were clenched in their hands they were trembling with fear as they saw the person that was at their opposite side. It was a big man wearing a set of full-body heavy plate armor his head was the only thing that was exposed. Even though he was facing a large number of enemies on his own the big man was rather carefree. Without looking at the nervous bunch of youngsters in front of him he was minding his business and moving his joints as if he was stretching imperceptibly emitting a sense of heavy pressure.
