You're worse than a donkey! Assessment over!

"Good..."

"What a great 'meritorious guide'!"

"What a 'only the White Eagle Federation is worthy of possessing it'!"

Inside the pavilion, looking at Kong Mingjie's proud, fawning face on the light screen, as if he had done something to bring glory to his ancestors.

Li Zhanjun felt a surge of blood rush to his head, his blood pressure soaring instantly, and his entire face turned the color of pig liver from rage!

He had spent his entire life risking life and limb for Great Xia, shedding blood and sweat to protect this land.

Now that he had finally seen hope for Great Xia's rise, such a traitorous thing had actually popped up in his own backyard?

"Bastard!!"

Bang!

Accompanied by a thunderous roar, the red-faced Li Zhanjun could no longer control the rage in his heart and slammed a fist heavily onto the stone table in front of him!

One must know, he was no longer the frail old man of the past, but a genuine Qi Refining Realm Cultivator!

With this punch thrown in anger, how could its force be less than a thousand catties?

With a crisp "crack," the thick stone table carved from hard bluestone was actually smashed through, leaving a clean hole right through it!

Stone fragments flew, and the teapot and cups on the table suffered even more, being sent flying instantly as tea splashed everywhere!

"Ouch!!"

"Old Li! Are you crazy?!"

Zhang Zhenghua, who was sitting nearby holding a teacup and watching the show, suffered from this unintended disaster.

Looking at his clothes soaked in tea, he couldn't help but roll his eyes and complain irritably:

"Anger is one thing, but why take it out on the table?"

"Look at this, such good tea leaves wasted!"

"Ahem... I couldn't help myself, couldn't help myself."

Li Zhanjun only then realized he had lost his composure, but he clearly wasn't in the mood to apologize. He just pointed at the still-babbling Kong Mingjie on the light screen and said through gritted teeth:

"This isn't my fault!"

"Look at that little beast's face!"

"I wish I could rush in right now and kick him to death!"

"Whew..."

Liu Jianshe also took a deep breath. Although he didn't explode like Li Zhanjun, his expression was terrifyingly dark.

"I really didn't expect that among this batch of students who went through layers of screening, there would be such a traitorous fellow."

"The country spent such a huge price to nurture them, and in the end, we raised such an ungrateful wolf?"

Speaking of this, a flash of lingering fear crossed his eyes, followed by a deep sense of relief.

"But... fortunately."

"Fortunately, we have this Heavenly Demon Heart-Questioning Array!"

"It can 100% screen out those with ill intentions!"

"Otherwise, if even one piece of trash like this managed to sneak into Taibai Academy, it would be enough to disgust us to death! It might even bring immeasurable losses to Great Xia!"

Everyone heard this and nodded in deep agreement.

This kind of internal pest was often more terrifying than external enemies!

Ye Hao, who had been sitting nearby and was still a bit constrained, saw these big shots—who had been kind and amiable just a moment ago—suddenly explode in collective rage.

His heart couldn't help but skip a beat, feeling a little apprehensive.

"Um... when I was in the illusion just now, I seemed to act quite like a villain at first..."

"These big shots won't misunderstand, will they?"

Ye Hao secretly swallowed hard.

After all, to draw out his Heart Demon, he had truly played the "villain" for a while. Although there was a reversal at the end, his earlier performance was indeed quite hateful.

If he were put on the big shots' blacklist, that would be bad!

However, Ye Hao was clearly overthinking it.

The fact that he could sit here drinking tea unscathed already said everything.

If the big shots were dissatisfied with him or doubted his character, he would have been kicked down the mountain long ago. How would he still have the right to sit here?

...Meanwhile, in mid-air.

Lin Guohui and the others, who had been watching the light screen, were now laughing from anger.

"No, I just don't understand."

Lin Guohui pointed at the light screen, his brow furrowed in utter incomprehension.

"Giving up a bright future just to go and lick the boots of the White Eagle Federation?"

"Is this guy's brain... kicked by a donkey or something?"

He really couldn't understand the logic of such a person.

They were already cultivating immortality; couldn't they have a broader perspective?

Still fixated on those petty worldly gains, even becoming a traitor for them?

Simply stupid to the core!

"Dad, that's where you're wrong."

Lin Xiyue, hearing this from the side, curled her lip and retorted solemnly:

"Don't insult donkeys!"

"This wasn't caused by being kicked by a donkey!"

"Because even someone whose brain was kicked broken by a donkey wouldn't do something this stupid!"

"This kind of person isn't even as good as a donkey; they're rotten to the core!"

She shrugged with a look of disgust.

"After obtaining a profound Cultivation Technique, the first thought isn't how to become stronger, but how to take it out and share it with outsiders..."

"And even taking pride in it?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, he really is a guy whose very soul is oozing rot!"

Gu Zhiyun looked at the screen, her eyes similarly full of loathing.

As a Formation Master, she had seen all kinds of people, but someone this 'special' was rare.

At this moment, she had already pronounced the death sentence for Kong Mingjie in her heart.

"Hmph!"

"This kind of trash will be a scourge no matter where he is!"

"Betraying one's masters and ancestors, and betraying one's Sect, are the greatest taboos in the cultivation world!"

"It cannot be tolerated!"

Sikong Yang's face was also ashen, his aura surging around him, clearly extremely indignant at Kong Mingjie's actions.

"I suggest we directly cripple his cultivation and expel him from Great Xia!"

"Let him go beg for food in his beloved White Eagle Federation!"

Li Fan also voiced his opinion, echoing coldly.

As a Sword Cultivator, what he looked down on most were these double-dealing villains.

Looking at this person's face for even two more seconds made him feel disgusted, as if it were dirtying his eyes!

"Alright, alright, everyone calm down."

Seeing that everyone's anger was growing, Lin Xiyue spoke up at the right time to soothe the atmosphere.

"No need to rush; this person will definitely be dealt with."

"Once the assessment ends, he'll naturally have his comeuppance!"

"For now, let him dream his sweet dreams in the illusion for a while. After all, once he wakes up, it will be Hell."

A cold smile curled at the corner of her mouth, and she waved her hand.

"Don't let trash like this affect our mood."

"Let's look more at the other good prospects!"

"I just noticed a girl over there who seems quite good; her willpower is very strong!"

Hearing Lin Xiyue's words, everyone felt it made sense.

It wasn't worth getting angry over such trash.

Thus, everyone shifted their gazes, focusing on the other students who were passing the trials, no longer paying attention to that loathsome traitor.

In this way, time quietly slipped away amidst everyone's comments and observations.

They kept their eyes on the light screen, occasionally praising an outstanding student or feeling regret for one who was still struggling.

During this process, aside from the extreme case of Kong Mingjie, they didn't find anyone else who was so eager to become a traitor upon entering the academy.

The sun gradually rose higher, and sunlight flooded the land.

Finally, as it approached noon.

The two-hour time limit for the assessment had completely run out!

Dong——!!!

As a melodious bell tone echoed through Taibai Academy.

This entrance assessment, which had drawn the attention of the entire nation, finally came to a close!
