526: Hahahaha —

Hahahaha —

For those two reasons, Mr Lu turned Feng Wu down before she had a chance to speak.2

Grand Secretary Fang and Priest Wu were shocked!

How could that be?

"Mr Lu…"

"Mr Lu…"

Both old men cried out in unison.

Would Mr Lu ignore their request outright?

Mr Lu was very straightforward. "She isn't an ideal choice for the martial arts department, nor for Imperial College. Therefore, no."

Once Mr Lu put it that way, there was nothing more Grand Secretary Fang and Priest Wu could say.

They turned to Feng Wu and sighed. "Xiao Wu, it's out of our hands now. You…"

Feng Wu shook her head adamantly.

"Mr Fang, Mr Wu, may I have a minute alone with Mr Lu?"

Mr Lu smirked. "Feng Wu! I don't care what you're going to say. I said no, and no it is! Moreover, registration has closed, and at least for this year, you've lost your chance!"

He practically shouted those words.

He hoped that he could make Feng Wu see some sense that way.

However, what he didn't know was —

Because of the earlier incident, many were eager to know what was going on with Feng Wu, so much so that quite a few students were lingering outside the principal's office.

Among those students were Guan Jing and Rong Shixin.

Guan Jing grinned when she heard the principal's words!

She dashed off toward the Year 1 cultivation room.

"I've got news! Big news!"

Her voice reached the room before she did.

"What is it?"

"Guan Jing, didn't you follow Feng Wu out to see how defeated she would be when she left?"

"Has she gone already? Did she really get into the principal's office?"

-

Everyone was curious.

Feng Sang was in the crowd and she looked at Guan Jing with unblinking eyes.

Guan Jing went up to Feng Sang, and only when all eyes were on her did she say in a gloating voice, "I think everyone knows what Feng Wu did just then."

"Yes!"

"I followed Feng Wu out just then and saw her go all the way to the principal's office."

"Wow! She really went there? How?"

"Then what? Did she register?"

-

Guan Jing shushed the others with a hand gesture.

A hush fell over the crowd.

It turned out that Guan Jing was unable to hold back her laughter. She laughed and laughed until she trembled all over and tears streaked her cheeks.

Everyone was bewildered.

What on earth happened? Why was Guan Jing laughing so hard?

"Tell us!"

"That's right. Stop laughing!"

"Tell us now! You're killing me here!"

-

Guan Jing finally managed to stop laughing, and in a trembling voice, she said, "Feng Wu did indeed see Mr Lu, and Mr Lu talked to her."

"What?"

Everyone was jealous and excited!

Mr Lu was such a superior figure that one couldn't just see him as they pleased.

But Feng Wu had been granted an audience?

They would be lying if they didn't admit that they were jealous.

Guan Jing went on. "Feng Wu did indeed see Mr Lu. Why am I so certain? Because I heard Mr Lu talk to her.

"Mr Lu said, 'Feng Wu! I don't care what you're going to say. I said no, and no it is! Moreover, registration has closed, and at least for this year, you've lost your chance!'"
