Chapter 59
Chu Xianmin read Rong Jin’s mind immediately.
He had just dissolved his marriage agreement with Chu Liuyue. As a result, she had entered Tian Lu Academy and even came in second place for the Xuan Master assessment. That was equivalent to slapping his face hard!
At a time like this, she must take first place in the warrior assessment to regain her pride and prove that she was truly better than Chu Liuyue.
Not only did this concern her, but it also concerned the Crown Prince! That was why he came under such circumstances. He wanted to show everyone that he had nothing to lose by choosing Chu Xianmin over Chu Liuyue.
Chu Xianmin knew this was her chance and promised him. “Brother Jin, rest assured that I will do my best.”
As long as she performed well today, the Crown Prince would have an out, and everything after that would be easy.
Rong Jin nodded with satisfaction. What he liked most about Chu Xianmin was her intelligence; she knew the appropriate action for every occasion.
The teacher-in-charge of the assessment shouted, “Chu Xianmin, Gu Mingfeng, are you done with your preparations? The finals are about to begin!”
Chu Xianmin and Gu Mingfeng heard that, and they walked towards the open space in the middle.
The other students had already formed a circle, waiting for the finals to begin.
Chu Xianmin began to panic. She realized that Gu Mingfeng was much more formidable than she expected. If they continued like this, she might not get first place!
She stole a quick glance at Rong Jin, who was among the audience. Indeed, he looked sullen.
Chu Xianmin gritted her teeth. This mustn’t go on! I must finish it quickly.
She took a deep breath, transferred all her force, channeled it into her longsword, and thrust the longsword straight ahead.
