The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1052: Chapter 1052 Confrontation

The Truth Department Director was clearly adding insult to injury. He knew that Jing Yan’s application had been rejected, and upon seeing Chun Jin and Jing Yan approaching, he deliberately mocked them.

As soon as he spoke, everyone in the hall turned their eyes towards Chun Jin and Jing Yan.

Jing Yan’s promotion examination application was rejected? What’s going on? Could it be that... Jing Yan didn’t meet the criteria?

That’s it, perhaps Jing Yan isn’t at the Seven-star Void God realm.

After a brief moment of surprise, many people’s expressions changed. It’s indeed somewhat laughable for the assessment application of a Ninety-nine Departments member to be rejected.

What are Chun Jin and Jing Yan thinking?

The application has been rejected, yet they still came to the Assessment Department, isn’t that asking for ridicule?

Chun Jin’s face flushed, but he quickly regained composure. Chun Jin is quite thick-skinned. He anticipated such a situation, so he was mentally prepared. If he couldn’t let go of his pride, he wouldn’t have brought Jing Yan here.

”The Assessment Department isn’t part of your Truth Department. What does it have to do with you when we come over?” Chun Jin glanced at the Truth Department Director and replied with a cold smile.

”Hahaha...”

”Why is Director Chun Jin so ill-tempered? I was merely asking casually. Director Chun Jin, it’s your freedom to come to the Assessment Department. Hahaha...” The Truth Department Director laughed heartily.

”Laugh your damn head off,” Jing Yan slightly condensed his Qi, suddenly shouted.

Jing Yan is not usually one to hold grudges, but seeing the Truth Department Director’s demeanor and considering that his application was rejected due to the Truth Department, he couldn’t suppress his anger.

Jing Yan insulted the Truth Department Director of the Third Palace in public.

The entire hall fell into silence. Eyes widened, unable to believe they were seeing Jing Yan. Many even doubted if they had heard it wrong.

Although Jing Yan is extraordinary, he is merely a member of the Third Palace Qingmu Department. But the person he insulted is the Truth Department Director of the Third Palace. Considering their status and position, at least for now, Jing Yan is far inferior to the Truth Department Director. Yet, in such a situation, Jing Yan dared to publicly insult the Truth Department Director.

The Truth Department Director could hardly believe what was happening. It took him a breath’s time before his eyes reddened, and his entire being was filled with killing intent, glaring viciously at Jing Yan.

In no situation did he expect to be insulted by someone like Jing Yan. If even Chun Jin dared insult him, he would never let it go.

At this moment, figures emerged from within the Inner Sect.

The relevant personnel from the Third Palace Personnel Department, Assessment Department, as well as the Fourth Palace Personnel Department, Assessment Department, arrived.

The Truth Department Director bit his lip, glaring venomously at Jing Yan, whispering, ”Just you wait, boy.”

”What a joke, just an old dog.” Jing Yan replied quietly.

The Truth Department Director nearly spat blood in anger, but it was clear that this was not the place to act, so he forcibly restrained himself.

”Director Chun Jin, which one is Chang Hao?” Jing Yan asked Chun Jin in a low voice.

Chun Jin glanced at Jing Yan, hesitated slightly, but still pointed to Chang Hao, who was standing behind the Third Palace Assessment Department Director.

”Jing Yan, you must restrain yourself a bit. The Fourth Palace Assessment Department Deputy Director is here, and there are elders from the Fourth Palace Personnel Department. As for the Third Palace’s Assessment Department and Personnel Department directors, you know and recognize them.” Chun Jin was indeed a bit worried that Jing Yan might lose his temper, so he reminded him again.

”Are all the Martial Artists here for the assessment?” The Fourth Palace Assessment Department Deputy Director squinted slightly and asked.

”To answer your lordship, everyone has arrived,” Chang Hao immediately responded.

Chang Hao is the person in charge of reviewing the promotion examination applications. The application list from the Third Palace Martial Artists is first sent to him, and after screening, it is passed to the director, who then sends it to the Fourth Palace Assessment Department for approval.

Jing Yan’s application was rejected when it was likely still in Chang Hao’s hands, and his name was crossed out then.

Because, Jing Yan only had one interaction with the Third Palace Assessment Department Director, and at that time, the director held a good impression of Jing Yan. It was also this director who informed Jing Yan of his ranking on the Tianshang Board. If the list reached the director’s hands, Jing Yan believed the director would not casually cross out his name.

”Since everyone is here, let’s enter the Great Hall for the assessment.” The Fourth Palace Assessment Department Deputy Director waved and said.

Upon hearing these words, everyone in the hall began to move.

”Hold on!” At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out.

”Hmm?”

”What’s happening?”

”What’s the situation?”

”Who said to hold on?”

In no time, everyone’s movements halted as they searched for the speaker. Then, many of their expressions changed.

If it was a high-ranking person who said to hold on, it might have been understandable. But the speaker was unexpectedly Jing Yan, a member of the Third Palace Qingmu Department.

Chun Jin was standing right beside Jing Yan, and when Jing Yan shouted those words, Chun Jin’s face turned pale, narrowly avoiding sitting on the floor.

”Do you need something?”

Many wanted to rebuke Jing Yan, but the Fourth Palace Assessment Department Deputy Director looked at Jing Yan and spoke first.

”I do have something. I previously applied for this Fourth Palace promotion examination, but for some reason, my application was rejected,” Jing Yan said loudly.

Upon hearing Jing Yan’s words, the Deputy Director’s face turned dark.

”Your application was rejected, just apply again next time, and don’t cause a scene,” the Deputy Director said sternly.

As the Deputy Director of the Fourth Palace Assessment Department, he couldn’t be bothered with such trivial matters.

The Third Palace Assessment Department Director and others also frowned at Jing Yan. The Third Palace Assessment Department Director’s eyes showed a hint of displeasure. Originally, he had a good impression of Jing Yan, but Jing Yan’s actions in today’s setting were somewhat excessive.

”Step back quickly.” Chang Hao, with a gloomy face, sternly addressed Jing Yan, ”Director Chun Jin, what are you doing? Quickly take your unruly Qingmu Department member out!”

”Haha, Elder Chang Hao, there’s no rush to chase me away either.”

”If you want me to leave, that’s possible as well. But you must first tell me why my application was rejected. Could it be that I didn’t meet the application criteria?” Jing Yan laughed, looking at Chang Hao and said.

”Deputy Director, I’m not causing trouble, but Elder Chang Hao has gone too far. He rejected my application and told me to apply again in a hundred years. This hundred years is very important to me,” Jing Yan said to the Fourth Palace Assessment Department Deputy Director.

”Jing Yan, stop talking,” Chun Jin came to his senses and shouted.

This shout from Chun Jin was naturally intentional as well.

Sure enough, the Fourth Palace Assessment Department Deputy Director reacted, looking at Jing Yan, ”Are you that extraordinary Jing Yan?”
