"Breaking news! Lin Hao's back, but the two Martial Artists who were supposed to go with him have bailed!" someone cried, rushing in from outside, unable to hold it in.
"Why did those two Martial Artists back out?"
"Some disciple popped up out of nowhere with shocking news: the Mo Yun Kingdom possesses an evil cultivation technique that drains a Martial Artist's vital essence and spirit."
"I know that evil technique, the Blood Transformation and Bone Refining Skill. Once that technique is used, not even the dead are spared. They're sucked dry into withered corpses."
"Now this is going to be a good show. Come on, let's go take a look. Let's see how this Lin Hao is going to complete his assessment."
As the disciples chattered excitedly, they all surged outside together...
Meanwhile, in the courtyard designated for new disciples of the Saint Institute, Lin Hao had only just walked in.
