Forsaken Immortals

Chapter 94 - Idol

The many people who had been observing Bai Rouyun and waited for her to make a fool out of herself were shocked when they saw that she had an invitation letter to the Blue Water Institute, but then their faces turned ridiculing and sneered at her.

Of course, she had an invitation letter. She was not strong enough to get in on her own, so it was likely that she had used her looks or background to get such a letter, and this was enough to make the people standing in the long queue waiting to be tested, jealous and full of unwillingness.

Why could such a weak little girl become someone special, why could she get an invitation letter, when they were forced to try and fight for a position? Especially when they were stronger than her! This was simply too unfair!

Looking at the massive queue of people who were glaring at her, Bai Rouyun just smiled casually and continued to walk towards the clerk who was signing up the people who had invitation letters.

She did not care about others, and not at all care about what they thought of her. So what if they were unhappy? They could be unhappy and find it unfair, but she had used her own strength to gain the invitation letter.

If not for having gotten first place in the Royal Hunting Feast, there would have been no way for her to get the invitation letter, so she did not feel as if she had walked in the backdoor.

If she genuinely wanted to walk in the backdoor, she would have asked Li Moyun to prepare a spot for her in the Cloudsoar Academy or other big schools in the continent. While it was possible, she was not willing to do so, and thus she did not feel as if she had abused her background.

But she was quite happy to see all these people looking down upon her. The more who looked down upon her, the easier it would be to eradicate the people who acted against her.

While Bai Rouyun was deep in thought and arrived at the desk where the clerk was sitting, she handed over the letter, and he accepted it graciously. Looking at it for a moment and noticing that it came from Richu Empire, he could not help but snort.

The Richu Empire was nothing big, but they still pretended to be much more outstanding than their peers, and the empire was bound to be lost sooner rather than later. If not for their Prince Yun, they would have been overrun by other Empires and Kingdoms long ago.

"Name," the clerk asked, and Bai Rouyun answered with a gentle and patient voice.

"Position at court," the clerk asked again. At normal students, this was not something they needed to consider, but the invited students were always asked for their rank and background. This was to ensure that they were not capable of causing too many problems for the Blue Water Institue later.

"Princess Yun," Bai Rouyun answered casually as she looked around, but she was not aware that the moment the words escaped her lips, the clerk’s hands jerked, and he raised his head for the first time to look at her.

Her exquisite appearance made the clerk unable to breathe, and he looked at her in shock. Prince Yun, Li Moyun, was the clerk’s idol, and he had heard that he had been married, but as to whom he married, he did not know, and now he saw the woman right in front of him, and he could not help but feel astounded.

She was extremely beautiful, definitely worthy of standing next to Li Moyun, but her strength was lacking, not at all something to write home about, and the clerk could not help but feel a bit of indignation on behalf of Li Moyun.

He was a deity in the eyes of many people. He had singlehandedly changed the outcome of many battles and ensured that the Richu Empire was kept safe.

Not only had he been campaigning on the battlefield since the age of twelve, but he had also managed to spread a rumor of being benevolent and gentle.

Now he had been married, only a few women were worthy of Li Moyun in the eyes of his fans, and Bai Rouyun was not worthy of him at all.

Bai Rouyun was unaware of the clerk’s thoughts if she knew she would have been unsure if she would cry or laugh. To think that even Li Moyun had fans throughout the world.

The clerk did not want to approve Bai Rouyun as a student in the Blue Water Institue, but he also realized that if he did not do that, it would be a disrespect to the man he admired, and thus he unwillingly went through the procedures.

Bai Rouyun was gifted a small round plaque that was made from an unknown material. It felt like wood, but it was much harder than regular wood and did not have the softness of most wood.

This plaque was Bai Rouyun’s identity tag at the school, and it was able to store the merit points that were used as the currency here.

She was told to pour a drop of blood on the plaque, and as she did, she felt a strange connection with the token in her hands.

After connecting with the plaque and ensuring that there was nothing else she should do with the clerk, she strode into the trial grounds where everyone was being tested.

She saw a few people holding a plaque, but most of them had none and were sweating profusely, clearly done with a few trials themselves.
