Disbanding is Your Problem, Why are You Crying About the Four Beauties of Yuling School?

301: Chapter 301 Breakthrough?”My goodness, so many people.”

”Let’s try to squeeze towards the front of the spectator stand.”

”Even a spectator stand this large probably can’t accommodate everyone who came today.”

”That’s true. I heard they prioritized seating for the examinees’ families.”

Many people were entering the spectator stand, chatting as they walked in. They arrived today with excitement on their faces; after all, it was a rare opportunity to witness such an assessment site.

Furthermore, they had another objective for coming today: to see Ye Qing in person.

Within the Barrier, they had heard the legends of Ye Qing countless times, yet they had never once seen this figure who was so familiar to their ears.

Now that such a golden opportunity had presented itself, how could they possibly let it slip by? They had to seize it immediately.

”I wonder when Ye Qing will come out?”

On the spectator stand, a Young Woman said to her best friend beside her.

”I heard that Ye Qing isn’t just powerful; he’s also a handsome guy.”

”A handsome guy? Really?”

”We’ll know once we see him in a while.”

Others began to chatter as well. A large portion of the discussion was focused on Ye Qing.

Up front, in the area reserved for the Families, a Family head gazed at the vast assessment grounds ahead, his face etched with worry.

”Family head, your expression doesn’t look right. What’s wrong?”

”I’m just quite worried right now. After all, this is Ye Qing’s first time serving as an Examiner. Usually, every Examiner has their own assessment method. For instance, Liu Hai previously had the examinees practice a Martial Skill so he could observe them.”

”There are other Examiners who even release exotic beasts directly to observe how the examinees react, judging whether they pass based on the strength they display while fighting the beasts.”

”The assessment modes for the other Examiners should already be set. Only Ye Qing’s remains undetermined, since he is a first-time Examiner.”

The Family head spoke to the person beside him, who nodded in agreement. The Family head’s concern was not without reason, as this was indeed a variable.

”However, since no one knows Ye Qing’s assessment method yet, everyone is essentially crossing the river by feeling the stones. We aren’t the only ones in this situation, so you needn’t worry, Family head.”

”Hmm, that’s true.” The Family head nodded.

A while later, King Fenghai appeared on the grounds with his secretary.

In that instant, the entire spectator stand erupted in cheers!

After all, King Fenghai was the strongest person in all of Modu—no, the strongest in the entire Eastern War Zone. He was a true King-level Expert with terrifying strength!

His appearance naturally drew cheers and reverence from everyone.

King Fenghai looked at the crowd and pressed his hand down; the scene suddenly fell silent.

”Alright, everyone, the assessment will begin shortly. Since you have all come, you can witness it yourselves. After all, the fairness of the assessment requires witnesses. If you have any questions, you can speak to me.”

With those few words from King Fenghai, the crowd raised their eyebrows. King Fenghai was just offering polite pleasantries.

After all, this assessment was hosted by the Modu Military Department; how could there be any doubts about fairness? The strength of these examinees was plain for all to see.

”Alright, now, I invite all the Examiners to take the stage. I also wish all the examinees success in passing the assessment.”

As King Fenghai spoke, thunderous applause erupted below.

Subsequently, the Examiners came up one by one.

Everyone watched the stage, holding their breath. Especially those who had never seen Ye Qing before were tense, staring ahead, ready to see what this figure who had created so many legends and was sung about by everyone actually looked like.

A while later, Ye Qing walked out.

Everyone looked at Ye Qing, their eyes widening abruptly; they simply couldn’t believe what they were seeing!

Young! He was simply too young! How could someone so young possess such strength?! How could he have created so many legends?! Terrifying! Was this person a Prodigy?!

As they thought this, they were shocked to their cores!

On the spectator stand, the two Young Women from earlier looked at Ye Qing, the corners of their mouths twitching, their eyes seemingly filled with hearts. So handsome! He was simply too handsome! How could such a dashing person exist in the world!

”Wanwan, did you see that? He’s so handsome! Ye Qing is so handsome! I had imagined how handsome Ye Qing was based on the legends, but seeing him today truly shattered my perceptions. He’s really so handsome, and his strength is impressive too. I can’t help it, I’m going to swoon!”

Wanwan: ”...” For a split second, she felt as if ten thousand flies were buzzing around her. However, she also looked at Ye Qing, her eyes filled with admiration; Ye Qing was truly stunning.

Not far away, Yunshu was also present. Listening to the commotion and discussions throughout the venue, she also looked at Ye Qing, her face flushed, though no one knew what she was thinking.

Beside her, Huang Bai looked at his daughter and felt something was off. Why was this girl’s face so red? Was she running a fever?

He then placed his hand on Yunshu’s forehead.

Yunshu: ”...” Good grief, Dad, what are you doing? I don’t have a fever!

”Alright, Dad, just watch the assessment in a minute!” Yunshu said irritably.

Huang Bai: ”...” Hey, you girl, I saw your face was quite red and was just looking out for you, yet you talk to me like that now. You really don’t understand an old father’s good intentions. Sigh, forget it, forget it. A daughter follows her own path.

Over here, many examinees saw Ye Qing come out and stared at him, their faces filled with shock. This was especially true for those who had never seen Ye Qing before.

However, even those who had interacted with Ye Qing before, like Yu Hao and the others, now felt that something was not quite right.

”Hiss, why do I feel like something is off?” Yu Hao said to the few Stars of Huaxia beside him. ”I feel like when Ye Qing was at the Jiangcheng Barrier, he didn’t seem to have such a formidable Aura. In such a short period of time, his Aura and sense of oppression have increased so much. What’s going on?”

”I don’t know. I also saw Ye Qing after he entered the Modu Barrier, and his Aura didn’t seem this strong either. Could it be that Ye Qing has had a Breakthrough?”

Boom. That single sentence was like a thunderclap on a clear day, making everyone feel a chill rise from their feet, shooting straight to their scalps. The hairs on their bodies stood on end in an instant.

A Breakthrough? How long had it been since he came from the Jiangcheng Barrier to the Modu Barrier? How long had Ye Qing even been in the Marquis Realm, and he could already have a Breakthrough? Could he actually have broken through from the early Marquis Realm to the Marquis Realm Mid-Stage?
