The Wine Shop of Eternity
Chapter 265 Girl Skinny
Prince Dante and the others spoke for several hours before they went to the room prepared for them.
Crunched. Clik.
Zhu Ren gently closed the door of his room and observed it in awe. He could not believe that he was in such a luxurious room. Never in his life did he want such luxury.
In front of him was a large bed with a padded mattress made from the fur of the Furret Fox, a beast famous for its smooth and soft fur.
He glanced around the room and looked at the tables and chairs, both items did not look ordinary at all. They were also made from precious trees and other items.
“And this is only the guest room of the sect. I wonder what kind of residence the disciples will be.” Zhu Ren muttered to himself while sitting on the bed.
He recalled the results shown by the Shining Star and pondered deeply with his eyes closed.
“Do I really have a terrible talent? Of course not.. During my childhood, I was even ostracized and bullied due to my slow cultivation speed. I work hard and train more than my friends. When they sleep, I thrust my spear without rest...How can I get such results from the Shining Star?” Zhu Ren rubbed his temple.
At this moment, he knew that there must be something else about the Shining Star, but he chose not to reveal it to his friends. He was afraid that the elders of the Heavenly Sword Tower would disqualify him if he spread what he learned.
“For now, I have to forget about it. I will use the remaining time to consolidate my cultivation ..” Zhu Ren said as he sat cross-legged.

“Master Sect, it is time to start the second assessment. Do you want to see how it goes?” Xia Xinyue asked as she looked at Jiu Shen with an affectionate gaze.
Jiu Shen thought for a moment before shaking his head. “I don't need to see it. In addition, I already have an idea of how many of them will pass.”
Xia Xinyue raised her eyebrows in surprise. “Sekte Master, can you tell me more about your guess?” She asked.
The corner of Jiu Shen's lips shot upwards as he replied. “You will know it soon. I know you want to see how those applicants will do this assessment.”
Xia Xinyue sighed in regret by hearing her answer. He was still the same man who wanted everything to remain a mystery.
“By the way, who is this appraisal supervisor?” Jiu Shen asked curiously.
Xia Xinyue looked at him and replied with a smile. “This Sister Lu Sulan.”
Xia Xinyue lowered her head respectfully and said. “Ya, Sect Master.”
After Xia Xinyue left the scene, Jiu Shen walked towards her room and gently opened the door.
Lying on his bed was Ice who was sleeping. He sucked a bottle of milk with his eyes tightly closed. Long Meili was also in her bed. She observed Ice with ama with a warm smile on her face.
When Long Meili sensed Jiu Shen's arrival, she stared at the entrance of the room and saw her handsome figure smiling at him. He wanted to greet her, but he looked at her signal to remain seated.
Jiu Shen sat beside Long Meili and looked at the sleeping little girl carefully. She gently stroked her cheeks and arranged her hair. He then turned his gaze to Long Meili and asked inwardly. “The second assessment will start soon, do you not want to see it?”
Long Meili shook her head and replied in a small voice. “Master, I'm not interested in that young man. I just want to stay by your side ..”
Jiu Shen smiled at her reply, but her eyes suddenly emitted a deep glow as she said. “Really? However, what if I were to say that one of them has a dragon bloodline? It's a bit watery, but the girl must have dragon blood in her veins. He must have found the remains of the dragon and refined it to improve it. It was also possible that the dragon gave his blood essence to the girl before dying.”.
When Long Meili heard those words, she instantly became agitated. He suddenly stood up and bowed to Jiu Shen as he said solemnly. “Master, thank you for letting me know. I want to see if the girl really deserves that power.”
Jiu Shen chuckled in his heart, but he put on an unperturbed expression as he said to her. “Don't hurt him. He may not know that he receives such strength, and if he passes all three assessments, you will be in charge of his training.”
Long Meili was surprised, but she nodded her head gently. “Ya sir.”
He then left the room in a hurry after bowing to Jiu Shen.
Jiu Shen closed his eyes and used his spiritual power to stare at the area where the second assessment was held.
In the middle of that place, he could see a tall tree that was about a thousand meters tall. Its large branches coiled like snakes and its leaves were lush and full of vitality.
This tree is called the Illusion Tree and will be very useful in the second assessment.
Jiu Shen then looked for a certain individual and stopped his spiritual gaze at a girl with a thin appearance.
This girl looked rather pitiful and the clothes she was wearing were made of cheap skin from ferocious beasts. From his appearance alone, anyone could tell that he was from a simple background. The only good thing about him was his pair of emerald green eyes that shone with a brilliant light.
“From the makeup of his body, it seemed like the dragon was willing to give his blood essence. Without it, this girl would have already died from starvation and lack of nutrition. What a pity..” Jiu Shen muttered softly.
