Two corpses lay in a pool of blood.
Blood dripped down the longsword in Pei Jinye's hand.
Outside the study, shadows flickered uncertainly.
"The Grand Elder..."
"Young master Jinye..."
The shouts were tinged with horror, and while everyone was at a loss, Pei Jinye simply waited quietly, sword in hand.
The boss had been dealt with, but why... had he still not passed the assessment?
Was it because these two minor bosses were of too low a level?
So they didn't count as a real challenge?
Or was it because he had awakened too quickly and hadn't entered the main plot yet?
As Pei Jinye pondered, the Pei Family's Second Elder had already rushed over.
The crowd hastily made way.
"Close the door!" the Second Elder commanded coldly.
The door to the study was closed.
The Second Elder hesitantly walked forward, and when he saw the Grand Elder's corpse, he was startled, his eyes bulging: "Pei Jinye!"
