FORSAKEN IMMORTALS

Chapter 250 - Jealous



Chapter 250 - Jealous

The headmaster could not help but give Bai Rouyun an extra glance. Although he had not seen her often, he was well aware of her background.

As the wife of Li Moyun, the Eternal Shadow Lord, how could she possibly be short of treasures?

Her cultivation rank was low, but it was not so low that she could not use treasures. While the Eternal Shadow Palace was mysterious, it was among the richest factions, and even if Li Moyun disliked his wife, he would still give her a certain amount of wealth in accordance with her identity.

How could he know that she adored treasures and wealth. After a life of poverty, she could never get enough riches to feel secure.

Just as the headmaster paused, Bai Rouyun raised her head and frowned. He seemed to be hesitating, which made her fear that the rewards were truly not very good.

Although she wished to use this tournament to explore the world and progress further, she still hoped to get a bit of benefits on the way.

Dongfang Yu, who was observing the two peoples’ expressions could not help but cough slightly, as he lowered his head and hid his uncontrollable smirk.

Bai Rouyun was not a person who seemed too obsessed with wealth, but she still had a bit of worries after having experienced a life without enough money to provide even the most basic meals.

The headmaster soon regained his senses. No matter what his theories were, the woman in front of him was indeed the wife of the Eternal Shadow Palace. Even if she did not hold much of a position within the faction, she was still able to bring some attention towards their Blue Water Institute if she was sent to the tournament on their behalf.

At the same time, he was also aware that she likely had a certain amount of power. Looking at how she was able to withstand his pressure made it obvious that she was not a simple person.

"The rewards have not been announced yet, but they should not be bad. I even heard some rumors that an ancient pill would be rewarded during this tournament, but the other treasures are supposed to be of the same quality."

The whole room gasped in surprise and envy when the word of an ancient pill was mentioned. These ancient pills had appeared recently, and many wished to be able to get their hands on such treasures.

Although they could only be used once, they were able to save lives or even improve their talents. Such items were hard not to covet.

Bai Rouyun frowned slightly when she heard that it would be an ancient pill. While others might wish for this treasure more than anything else, she was not that eager to get her hands on it. She could make as many as she wished for.

However, if the ones hosting the tournament were willing to use an ancient pill as a reward, one could guess that the other prizes would not be shabby either, and she smiled happily.

"Well, in that case, let us work hard for the honor of the school."

The smile on Bai Rouyun’s face was pure and innocent, but somehow the headmaster felt his lips twitch slightly.

She had just asked for the rewards, and after hearing that they were satisfactory, she claimed that she would work hard for the school’s honor? What a lazy way to look for a reason to do her best!

While Bai Rouyun was calm and happy, the rest of the class was feeling extremely low and disappointed. They had not expected that withstanding such treasure would give them a chance to enter such an amazing tournament. If they had known, they would have persevered!

However, these students forgot that even if they did participate on behalf of the institute, the tournament was the largest on the entire continent, which meant that the chances of winning were almost zero. It was even possible to lose their lives along the way, so even if they felt upset when knowing that they would miss all chances to win an ancient pill, they soon realized what the consequence of losing might be.

An ancient pill was indeed tempting, but one needed to be alive to enjoy the benefits it brought. If it were a question between the pill and life, then they would pick life.

"Then, Miss Bai and Master Dongfang will stay with me after class and I will inform them about the details of the tournament."

After having said this, the headmaster found a seat and sat down. He observed the rest of the lecture, but no one was in the mood to focus on the information that was being taught any longer.

Even the expert that was in charge of the lecture was feeling shocked and uneasy after knowing that the reward at the tournament would be an ancient pill.

One has to know that these experts were not allowed to participate in the tournament itself, and thus their hope was extinguished before the students’.

Also, he felt somewhat uncomfortable while thinking about how the students he was teaching would have the chance to get such a priceless treasure. If they consumed this pill, would their talent become so good that they would be able to look down upon him in the future?

The expert had decided to become a teacher at the Blue Water Institute for a few reasons. First of all, the peaceful life suited him well. He liked living without having to fear for his life, but more importantly, he knew that he could not advance much in life, so instead he could teach others, and at the same time look down upon those who were weaker than him.

If they one day overwhelmed his might, he would be extremely angry, and these two students suddenly had some chances that he had never been given, hence his mood turned worse as the lecture went past.
