I've Led The Villain Astray, How Do I Fix It?

Chapter 39

The purpose of this seal was to prevent candidates from being shameless. If they placed the jade pendants into their inter-spacial bags and refused to take them out no matter how badly their opponents beat them up, then this part of the exam would have lost its meaning. After all, candidates were forbidden from killing each other.

The fat man who had lost a lot of face from before was currently squatting in a corner and crying his eyes out. He was precisely one of those poor souls who had already lost his jade pendant……in addition, perhaps it was because he didn’t have much experience, but he had also managed to get lost in the forest.

He lost his jade pendant and then got lost in the forest. The chances of him passing this part of the assessment was basically next to none. After losing all of his hope, he could only rely on sobbing to vent out his extreme depression.

When the red-haired examiner who had been monitoring that area saw this scene, he felt completely helpless. It was truly the first time he had ever seen a candidate like this.

Although the examiner felt some sympathy for this guy, he still found someone to send that fat man out of the assessment zone. For that fat man, his path to being an inner-sect disciple ended here. If he was lucky enough, perhaps he would still become one of Liu Guang Sect’s outer-sect disciples.

One shichen passed very quickly. Those black-clothed cultivators were all very energetic as they hopefully looked toward the red-haired buff man.

(Shichen is equal to two (2) modern hours.)

The examiner laughed before waving his hand. “Go ahead. Give those little rascals a lesson. Let them thoroughly understand the teachings of their future senior-apprentice brothers and sisters!”

“Understood!” All of the black-clothed cultivators responded in an excited tone before they began rushing toward that forest filled with prey.

Almost all of those black-clothed cultivators began following the trails left by the exam candidates. However, one cultivator didn’t leave.

The red-haired examiner stared at the stationary black-clothed cultivator in astonishment. He was extremely familiar with these disciples, to the point where he could distinguish them based on their aura alone. “HongYun, what are you doing? Don’t you want to find that kid and take revenge?”

Qilian HongYun could only smile bitterly. "Ye Gui shishu, my leg is still numb……”

(Shishu means martial uncle.)

This time, the red-haired buff man was truly surprised. He walked over and gave Qilian HongYun a push. This resulted in the younger man immediately sitting down. Previously, it hadn’t been easy for him to maintain his facade. Thankfully, he could finally rest now.

Ye Gui inserted his spiritual energy into Qilian HongYun’s leg before circulating it. Immediately, he revealed a shocked expression as he said, “That kid isn’t someone normal. His lightning spiritual energy actually integrated itself into your blood before following your bloodstream and flowing throughout your whole body.”

Qilian HongYun suddenly saw the light and immediately understood. “I thought it was strange! At first only my ankle was numb, but now my whole leg is completely numb.”

Ye Gui was extremely puzzled. Lightning spiritual attacks were indeed very strong, and it was normal for them to cause numbness after a person was hit. However, he had never heard of someone being able to integrate lightning spiritual energy into a person’s blood. After thinking about it, though, there were thousands of strange and different martial art techniques in the world. In addition, each one of them had different side-effects. If he hadn’t heard of it before, it may be because he didn’t have enough worldly experience. Thus, what was he doing being so puzzled over this?
