The Ancient Gods' Whisper-Chapter 1069 - 499: Unconventional Path_3

It gave her a great sense of security.

At this moment, accompanied by the rumbling of the stone platform, someone had completed a full eighty chimes.

The Family Heads of the aristocratic families all turned their heads, and the silver-haired girl calmly withdrew her hand, slightly frowning.

She seemed very dissatisfied with her result.

Mu Shiyu, a genius girl from the Mu Family, her appearance here was only natural, yet it seemed her ambition wasn’t simple. She probably wanted to compete with the currently acknowledged number one of the younger generation.

Just as she was about to leave, she saw an unexpected person.

Xia Zhi awkwardly made eye contact with her, mouthing a silent "Hello, Senior Sister."

Mu Shiyu’s eyes displayed surprise, not knowing how this insignificant person had come to be in the inner courtyard. At that moment, out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly spotted the expressionless boy in the crowd, seemingly suspicious of something.

Gu Jianlin also noticed the gaze from the silver-haired girl, his little finger moving slightly.

Because according to his profile results, this girl was not simple.

Not that there were issues with her identity or background, but he sensed an aura similar to his own.

Mu Shiyu had not inherited her family’s traditional lineage but was one of the few clever ones.

Xia Zhi also respectfully offered incense and saluted, mustering the courage to place her hand on the stone platform.

She knew she might not succeed, yet didn’t know where she got the courage to stand there. Perhaps it was because she refused to be defeated by life, or possibly she wanted to strive for a better life for her family.

Of course, it might also be because that boy had said to her, "You can."

With a boom,

The golden light released from the stone platform illuminated her incredulous face.

Because the stone platform responded to her spirituality.

She actually adapted to the Candle Light Law.

The stone platform roared again, and she did not even count how many chimes there were; she got lost in the booming sound.

In fact, she didn’t really know who she had been staying with these days.

Gu Jianlin was the most perfect life in the world, also currently the only one with Evolution Theory, not only helping her solve the Frida’s Schizophrenia that troubled her for years, but also teaching her intentionally or unintentionally.

The boy’s breathing and heartbeat held endless mysteries.

These she didn’t know.

The only thing she knew was that the boy had said to her, "You can."

So she really did it.

She subconsciously turned to look at the corner of the aisle, where the boy stood in the shadows, even too lazy to look at her.

Xia Zhi wasn’t angry in the slightest, but rather a bit resentful.

"Sixty-four chimes!"

"Which family does this descendant belong to?"

"Unfamiliar, completely a new face, which family brought in this civilian genius?"

Xia Zhi walked down amidst the whispers of discussion, knowing she indeed did it, yet unaware that the results would be this good. This was the first time she felt the stunning gazes from all directions.

Unfortunately, the boy had no intention of encouraging her at all, seemingly ready to scorn her for being weak later on.

"Sixty-four chimes, so proud?"

Probably in this tone, not being deliberately sarcastic, but merely stating a fact.

Mu Shiyu frowned, her gaze becoming increasingly peculiar, she first looked up at the elder on the stone steps, then glanced back at the boy in the crowd, speculating in her heart that it was one of them who played a part.

Xia Zhi knew exactly what she was like, without someone’s help, it would have been impossible to pass the test.

Finally, it was Gu Jianlin’s turn.

Or rather, Ying Changsu’s.

The identity of Ying Changsu was not prominent in the Order World, even her own family had no impression of her since she was merely an illegitimate child, after all, not everyone could hold the script of ’don’t underestimate the youth’.

Moreover, in the Order World, there weren’t really anyone bullying him.

This was the so-called transparency.

Just as the Family Heads were chatting and laughing, Professor Cheng frowned, realizing something was amiss.

"What are you trying to do, calm down!"

He really wanted to say this, but with so many people around, he had no chance to intervene.

Within Ying Changsheng’s mind, there was a slight thud.

Mu Shiyu narrowed her beautiful eyes, staring at the boy’s back, trying to discern something.

Xia Zhi clenched her fists, cheering herself on in her heart.

In the corner, Ye Ni raised her eyes casually taking a glance, then retracted her gaze.

The young people crowded on both sides of the aisle to watch, even some Demon Hunters were staring intently ahead.

"Old man, Brother Lin won’t be in trouble, right?"

A slightly chubby Demon Hunter spoke in code.

"I don’t know."

A slightly stooped Demon Hunter also replied in code: "I’m afraid the boss might transform into Godzilla on the spot."

Gu Jianlin did not transform into Godzilla on the spot, nor did he do anything astonishing.

He was very reserved and calm.

Because the Gold and Silver were watching him.

Click.

That was a crisp sound.

The stone platform in front of Gu Jianlin broke apart with a response, the burst of golden light shattered explosively!

He was very cautious, realizing something might go wrong, so he didn’t place his hand on the stone platform.

Unfortunately, the stone platform just erupted when he glanced at it.

The shattering golden light illuminated faces frozen in shock.

Gold and Silver stood up sharply: "Impossible!"
