m.Hao Ren started a club that initially recruited over 500 members. This news had spread across campus by now.The gang fight at Lingzhaos Middle School in the afternoon was another piece of gossip, wi...Husband of the Dragon King Chapter 393 - I Entrust My Fate to You
"The Dragon Temple needs people who are not only physically powerful but also intellectually outstanding. If an inspector cannot properly coordinate and resolve various disputes, even if their physical strength is great, they are still not up to the mark. For example, when the East Sea Dragon Palace and West Sea Dragon Palace clashed near Donghai City this time, I was demoted." After finishing his instant noodles, Su Han wiped his mouth with a napkin and said.
Hao Ren knew that the conflict between the East Sea Dragon Palace and the West Sea Dragon Palace wasn't something Su Han could solve alone. However, since an issue occurred and Su Han failed to control its development, from the perspective of the Dragon Temple, Su Han couldn’t escape responsibility.
"Are there different levels for inspectors" Hao Ren asked.
“There are five types of inspectors: assistant inspector is the lowest level, with a term of one year that needs to be re-evaluated annually. That's also considered a temporary inspector who assists formal inspectors in completing assigned tasks but doesn't qualify for entry into the Dragon Temple; The term for a formal inspector is ten years and they need to undergo an evaluation every decade. Amongst the formal inspectors, there are four levels divided based on their responsibilities into patrol inspectors and regional inspectors. Qin Shaoyang and I were originally both at the highest fourth level of inspectors, but due to this incident, I was demoted to a third-level inspector, significantly reducing my authority within the Dragon Temple.” Su Han said.
"Oh…" Hao Ren slightly understood.
An assistant inspector is equivalent to temporary staff in the Dragon Temple without official status, unable to enter the Dragon Temple and cannot obtain its resources. The only benefit is self-improvement and familiarity with inspection regulations.
Even so, dragon cultivators who want to become assistant inspectors are still numerous. After all, being an assistant inspector brings them one step closer to becoming a formal inspector. Moreover, in the selection of inspectors, they can have some advantages or disadvantages.
A formal inspector isn't carefree either; evaluations every ten years leave them on high alert. For someone like Su Han who is a Qiankun level expert, it’s manageable, but for young cultivators barely reaching Du stage and becoming formal inspectors, if they remain at the same level after ten years, they might be replaced by stronger newcomers.
Su Han's demotion from fourth to third level isn't just about benefits reduction; there is a significant reduction in face too!
One can imagine how Qin Shaoyang, who was one rank higher than Su Han, would look down on him! In the past, he wouldn’t dare provoke Su Han because when Su Han gets angry, it’s not something he could handle!
Now, he firmly stays in Donghai City, relying on his level being one grade higher than Su Han's!
A superior official can be crushing to people, let alone that there are only four levels of inspectors!
The higher Qin Shaoyang’s rank is, the more he seems like a principal inspector while Su Han appears as an assistant. How could Su Han want Qin Shaoyang to take over his territory and work under him So she definitely wants to push Qin Shaoyang out again!
"Qin Shaoyang was originally a fourth-level inspector, if this situation happened in the past, he would certainly have some means to revoke your eligibility to participate in the Dragon Temple's examination. But now we still have one trump card." Su Han continued.
“Trump card” Hao Ren felt puzzled.
"Yes, we have his fated treasure, so he dares not act recklessly," Su Han nodded.
Hao Ren heard Su Han use the word "we" and found it a little strange. Solitary Su Han seemed to never use such words before.
The importance of a fated treasure was already clear to Hao Ren. A fated treasure had some connection with a cultivator's mind, thus enabling the cultivator to wield its power at will, bringing out the greatest might of this treasure and allowing him to store it within his own body.
Because of this reason, if a cultivator’s fated treasure was seized by another person, not only would he lose an awesome treasure but also part of his cultivation.
The destruction of a fated treasure meant the destruction of a piece of mind stored within it by its owner, causing great damage to the cultivator's power and potentially even taking his life if such damage occurred when he was in danger or fighting!
Such considerations made Qin Shaoyang dare not do anything underhanded regarding Hao Ren’s participation in the Dragon God Temple examination.
Otherwise, as a fourth-level censor and with a status higher than Su Han's, he would be able to revoke one of Su Han's spots at the Dragon God Temple!
"His fated treasure is currently kept here. As long as he dares to take any action, I can destroy his fated treasure at any time. But this only lasts until the exam in the Dragon God Temple," Su Han said softly.
“Why” Hao Ren immediately asked.
"Because… Qin Shaoyang is the main examiner for this round of exams," Su Han said coolly.
Hao Ren was surprised. "Hmm"
"In every Dragon God Temple exam, the martial tests will be handled by sixteen fourth-level censors in four regions. Qin Shaoyang and I are both fourth-level censors. Originally, we were going to be this round of exams' main examiners, but I demoted myself to a third-level censor and can no longer serve as a main examiner."
Su Han paused before continuing, "However, Qin Shaoyang is still the main examiner. He's responsible for judging the competition results and maintaining examination order. The main examiner definitely has his own fated treasure. I don't want to escalate our conflict to the level of the Dragon God Temple, so at this time, I have to return his fated treasure."
Hao Ren nodded slowly. Su Han had already done as much as possible; her tone revealed that she was quite helpless about demoting herself from fourth-level censor to third-level.
If Su Han were the main examiner, Hao Ren would definitely have an advantage serving under her as a reviewing officer. Now... all Su Han could hope for was that Hao Ren wouldn't be assigned to Qin Shaoyang's region.
"Let’s not waste time with idle talk anymore and focus on passing tomorrow’s written test," Su Han took a deep breath, opening her Amulet of Samsara to retrieve an “enormous” codebook from it.
This codebook was thirty centimeters thick and eighty centimeters wide—more terrifying than any dictionary Hao Ren had ever seen!
"You have four days to memorize this manual." Su Han said indifferently.
The… the manual!
Hao Ren almost spat out blood. Indeed, he had always been exceptionally gifted in memory, and after his cultivation, his ability to remember things instantly became even stronger. But... could it still be called a manual then
"Everything related to examiners, big or small, is inside this manual; that's the scope of the written test," Su Han explained.
“Are there any key points” Hao Ren asked hopefully.
"No." Su Han shook her head.
Seeing Hao Ren looking a little disappointed, she added, "The Examiner’s Handbook is sealed with special formations; once you turn the page, the content on that page disappears. In other words, it can only be read once. So whether I give it to you early or late doesn’t matter. Actually, studying closer to the exam time will yield better results."
Hao Ren looked speechlessly at Su Han, thinking she was being kind to him in her own way. This sort of bizarre testing method could only be thought up by the Dragon Temple.
Thinking about it, Hao Ren asked Su Han, "Do you know all the content inside this manual"
Su Han shook her head.
"Um..." Hao Ren quickly followed up with another question, "Then how did you pass back then"
Su Han thought for a moment and answered seriously, "I forgot."
“Um...” Hao Ren was utterly defeated. He admired Su Han even more now.
"I will study this manual with you; from tonight until Friday night, we'll read one quarter of it each day and try to finish before the weekend," Su Han said.
Hao Ren looked at Su Han and nodded. There was no turning back for him now; becoming an examiner would be beneficial to himself, to Su Han, and to the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace.
In fact, if he thought about it again, having such a beautiful lady like Su Han accompany him through all-night studying was a blessing that many men would kill for.
If this were known at school, even Zhou Lidong might be tempted to immediately crush Hao Ren underfoot.
"I'll go change into my pajamas and take a shower. If you're going to prepare some late-night snacks, you might as well start getting ready now." Su Han stood up from the sofa and walked towards her bedroom.
In the past, she had never imagined that she would spend an entire night with a man, but now, her own fate is tied to this man who is merely at the Geng rank level!
As long as Hao Ren can succeed in entering the top ten of the imperial examination list, she will have a way to transfer Hao Ren to Donghai City and thus find a way to push Qin Shaoyang out!
If she gets rid of Qin Shaoyang, this thorn in her eye, then she can continue to cultivate peacefully and strive for the peak of the Qian rank level!
Without realizing it, Su Han had already bet her future on Hao Ren.
Su Han has never cared so much about a man's success or failure before, nor has she ever tried so hard to help a man achieve progress!
To help Hao Ren, she even put aside her own cultivation for the past few days. This would have been inconceivable and unimaginable in the past!
Just as Su Han went into her bedroom to change clothes and Hao Ren went into the kitchen to prepare snacks, Xie Yujia, who was left alone in their dormitory at school, suddenly received an unfamiliar call.
"Hello" Xie Yujia answered the phone.
"Are you Xie Yujia" A rather rude voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Oh, it's me." Holding her phone, Xie Yujia walked to the balcony of their dormitory, "You are Ah Zi, right"
"Humph!" The crisp voice paused for half a second on the other side of the line. "Uncle said you should go to the Fifth Heaven Realm and find you Where did he go himself"
"I'm not really clear where he went. But, are you planning to go to the Fifth Heaven Realm by yourself" Xie Yujia asked her.
"Xiao Bai is with you, half an hour later I will be at your school gate. I have already reached the Foundation Establishment stage, of course I need to cultivate hard! Unlike you!"
With a click, the phone was hung up from the other side.
Xie Yujia standing on the balcony felt slightly irritated but thought about how Hao Ren had asked her to take care of Zhao Yanzi and thus didn't want to get upset. However...
Where did Hao Ren go... Xie Yujia looked up at the moon, equally puzzled.ir Cultivation Realm cultivators to even things out and mitigate some of the losses for the Sky Mountain Sect.This was not an unreasonable thought; if both sides brought out their Cultivation Realm cu...
