Xia Lianxue bit her lip hard, staring at Zhu Mingyi. Word by word, she asked the question she already knew the answer to.
"Why doesn't he need to take the supplementary test?"
She couldn't accept it!
From the day she was born, she had been on a pedestal, the most dazzling genius in all of Yanjing, and even the entire Great Xia!
She could accept being less skilled than someone, but she could not accept having the very right to compete against her rival stripped away!
Zhu Mingyi looked at this prodigy, a flash of disappointment flickering deep in his eyes.
"This is for your own protection."
He repeated himself.
Just then, He Zhenghong, who was standing in the back, suddenly gave Zhou Ke a meaningful look.
Zhou Ke understood immediately.
He took a step forward, and the blood-soaked, murderous aura of a veteran soldier instantly enveloped the entire area.
His sharp eyes swept coldly over Xia Lianxue and the few other candidates who also wore defiant expressions.
