I had to admit, the assessments that day had been almost pointless. There hadn't been anyone interesting or any interesting fights.
Both matches had been settled in a matter of seconds.
Xu Yanli had practically only released his Martial Soul and used one support skill. Xiao Xiao and Tang Ling had taken care of everyone else.
The afternoon match had been a little more interesting, though, because they'd come up against the young lady of the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect.
Xu Yanli stepped onto the competition platform and gave the young lady of the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect a gentlemanly bow.

"Forget it. No matter who he is, the teacher has vouched for him, so there shouldn't be a problem," Yan Shaozhe said.
