Chapter 841 "Be the Judge (5)"

“You want to enter the Holy Domain?” Zheng Qi exclaims, "This matter must be discussed with the Lord before we go any further. If anything happens to you, not only will us three here be unable to live anymore, the Holy Land will also suffer a great loss."

“Okay,” nodding at her big s.h.i.+fu"s concern, Bai Yan didn"t want to force the matter if they are unwilling. "I haven"t seen him for a long time too, it"s a good chance to go visit that old man. Also, I want to ask you three about another matter." Pausing for a second, she wanted to word the question correctly so they don"t try to hide anything important: "Why is the Holy Land recruiting more disciples?"

“It"s like so…." It was Qiu Shu Rong who spoke. Sighing like it"s not their wish, "Things are not looking calm out in the mainland. In order to prepare for the crisis that we"re sensing, all three major powers are currently recruiting people from the outside to bolster our strength. To accelerate the process quicker, we will by sending the new recruits into the Mini Holy Domain."

More correctly speaking, the Holy Domain was divided into two parts. One was the mini version, or more correctly the less effective version which Bai Yan had also attended during her time here. As for the bigger one, also more commonly known as the Mirror of Life and Death, was the one which Bai Yan wants to enter this time around.

And no matter whichever version one wants to enter, each individual only has one opportunity in a lifetime due to the restrictions placed on the domain. That meant if it wasn"t a last resort and very urgent, the Holy Land wouldn"t be sending ill prepared new recruits into the mini version where it"s very much possible to be killed if they are not talented and capable.

“If we"re going to be sending those people into the mini domain then we can"t have any unfair corruption happening. We must make sure the test is fair and just!" Caressing her chin, Bai Yan solemnly states this to her s.h.i.+fus.

“Speaking of which, you came back just in time. The Lord wants you to be the judge for this event."

“Me?” Bai Yan"s eye began to narrow into a slit, "I have no time to spare, I need to train inside the Holy Domain."

“Disciple, you mustn"t be impatient. Opening the main Holy Domain requires time as well. Being the judge for the recruitment conference wouldn"t take up much of your time anyways."

Scanning the three old fellas with skeptic eyes: “Why aren"t you three being the judges instead?"

Be the judges? How silly! Only someone with issues in the brain would want such a troublesome job. All three of them thought of the exact same response, only that they didn"t dare to say it aloud.

“Yan Yan, we"re still rough around the edges when refining that new recipe you left us. We need time to hone our skills." Ren Yi (second) only needed a moment to come up with a good excuse since he"s the clearest of mind among the three.

“Then where’s Chu Yi Feng?”

“If we have the young lord act as the judge then it will cause more harm than good. Do you think those females would still care about the test? More like they would try to devour him before anything else."

“Then Chu Yi Yi? If Chu Yi Feng is out of the question that younger sister of his is qualified, right?"

“Her? Of course not! With that girl"s crazy character, the whole test would likely become a huge mess at the end. Heck, if her mood is bad, she might even burn down the stage down right then and there."

All in all, these old farts are convinced on making Bai Yan serve as the judge today.

Face palming herself, the poor woman here suddenly felt like she returned to the Holy Land at a wrong timing….

“Can I refuse?” her tone grew weak.

“No! You can’t refuse, that’s that. This time the judge must be you, and the princess can only be your aid at most! It"s likely only you are able to control that la.s.s in this entire place!" A determined face, Ren Yi doesn"t allow his student here to refuse at all.

“Mother,” Bai Xiachen suddenly tugs at his mother"s sleeve with his eyes s.h.i.+ning. "I also want to be an aid."

First looking at the little steambun, then at Bai Yan"s face, Dragony was also showing a hopeful face. I also want to help….

“We"ll talk about this later, first I"ll meet with the Lord and Chu Yi Yi. Oh right, where is Chu Yi Feng right now, is here in the Holy Land?" Bai Yan asks after a moment of hesitation.

Almost immediately, the three seniors" faces were stiff and awkward when they sighed.
