Chapter 1085 - 1084: You Are the One We’ve Chosen!

The dormitory leader swept a worried glance at the podium, "But..."

But, would the Twelve Elders be upset?

Qin Xin didn’t even look at the podium, raising her voice, "Ignoring people’s lives is one thing, but not allowing the injured to return for treatment? That’s nonsensical anywhere in the world."

The Seventh Elder sneered, looking at Qin Xin with a playful expression.

However, the Second Elder appeared solemn and nodded to the dean.

The elderly dean quickly said from the podium, "Alright, alright, injured students can go back first. Those who performed well can stay for the Twelve Elders’ selection. Everyone, remain calm, calm. See, the birds have left, it was just a test, no need to be nervous..."

The students: "..."

Everyone suppressed their anger, glaring at the podium.

They were angry but afraid to speak; yet, couldn’t help but argue internally: If Lan hadn’t acted, who knows how many of us would still be alive? Is this called a test?

For the first time in their lives, they felt the school truly didn’t see them as people.

Thought they were easily fooled, didn’t they?

More than half of the students left, supporting each other.

Those remaining were mostly freshmen; like Ao Xinghao and the others seeing Qin Xin hadn’t left, didn’t want to leave either, afraid Qin Xin would suffer alone.

And there were the senior students with minor injuries, staying to observe.

In the family team of the mentors, Ding Yu stayed behind.

She hadn’t yet rid herself of the stench, but the jealousy in her eyes had grown considerably.

She refused to believe what she had just seen—the scene of Qin Xin taking decisive action to turn the tide.

She must have seen wrong!

The elders would surely expose the ugly girl.

Also, the elders with keen insight would surely notice her clever act of using carefully prepared powder to drive away the birds, recognize her as the buried talent!

Ding Yu eagerly looked at the podium, waiting for good news belonging to her.

However.

The reaction from the podium was completely beyond her expectations.

With a smile, the dean invited the elders, "The test just ended, are the elders satisfied? Are there any students who caught the elders’ eyes?"

Outstanding graduates can gain direct guidance from the Twelve Elders, which is a tradition of Divine Academy.

However, in previous years, the elders never bothered to come personally to select students, preferring to name them directly from the achievement records or at most send one or two servants for trials.

Today, all Twelve Elders were actually present and personally conducted the trial, a great honor indeed.

It also allowed everyone to feast their eyes on the sight of those fierce birds blotting out the sky.

The elderly dean wished he could recommend more outstanding students, granting them the opportunity to ascend to higher realms.

Like a mother hen seeking a better future for her chicks.

Who would have thought.

The elders’ expressions were not very pleasant.

The Seventh Elder more so, speaking cynically: "This year’s students are truly lacking, none caught my eye. But, there’s barely one who’s passable, might become my choice."

He said this while glancing at Qin Xin.

The Second Elder also looked over, his lips parted slightly but he said nothing.

The elderly dean was quite excited: "Yes, yes, Lan is our academy’s ambassador, excellent in both character and academics..."

He had repeated this line countless times today but never as excitedly as now.

It seemed that two elders had taken a liking to Lan; with a bit more effort to promote Lan, there would be a chance for Lan to have a better mentor, possibly bringing back more snacks and the latest phones in the future, hehe.
