Chapter 240: Assessment Drama! Strength Ranking!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Early in the morning, the manor turned into a lively atmosphere. People came and went like it was the New Year.

Gu Xichi and Jiang Dongye’s rooms were upstairs, next to Qin Ran’s.

The old castle was very large. The passageway on the second floor was 20 meters long and had seven rooms in total. After accommodating these two people, there were still three more rooms left. It was more than enough.

At seven in the morning, Cheng Mu knocked on Qin Ran’s door and moved the potted flower into her room.

He happened to see Gu Xichi and Jiang Dongye staring out the window at the end of the corridor.

“Young Master Jiang, Mr. Gu.” Cheng Mu greeted politely. “Good morning.”

Qin Ran also happened to come out of her room. Holding her down jacket in one hand and a flower pot in the other, she saw Cheng Mu and passed him the flower pot.

Gu Xichi also turned around. He was rather excited at this rare lively atmosphere. “Good morning. Xiao Ran, what are Brother’s subordinates doing? Is there some activity today?”

“An assessment,” Qin Ran closed her door and replied lazily. “It’s equivalent to the year-end exam.”

Cheng Mu went to the flower garden first.

The three of them went to the first floor for breakfast slowly.

On the first floor, they bumped into Cheng Shui and Cheng Juan, who had just come out of the study room on the third floor.

Cheng Shui held a large stack of documents in his hands, which was probably the materials for the assessment today.

“Brother, what’s with your manor’s assessment?” Gu Xichi sat on a chair and asked with interest while taking a piece of toast and a glass of milk.

Cheng Juan took a glass of coffee instead of milk and was talking to Qin Ran when he heard Gu Xichi’s question. He turned and raised a lazy eyebrow. “Go and take a look yourself.”

Gu Xichi was speechless.

Cheng Shui put down his chopsticks and explained it to him.

Gu Xichi understood it slightly now.

Qin Ran didn’t have much appetite in the morning and just bit her straw. After hearing Cheng Shui’s explanation, she glanced at Cheng Juan and asked, puzzled, “Does it take four days?”

It was a long time.

After finishing his breakfast, Cheng Juan picked up his teacup slowly and explained patiently to her, “It’s because of the large number of people. There are a total of 400 people, including each leader and the ordinary members of each hall. They all have to go through the one-vs-one competition as well as the assessments on various aspects. The computer assessment of the information hall is one of them.”

Gu Xichi was speechless as he listened to him explain to Qin Ran.

This damn differential treatment.

**

These two days, Cheng Huo had been busily working on Qin Ran’s three-segment code in the information hall. He basically ate and lodged there like everyone else and didn’t go back.

He managed to achieve significant breakthroughs in the past two days.

Other people from the other halls had been working hard on the training ground recently. Only the computer-addicted people in the information hall were fighting to their deaths with the three-segment code.

However, their results were very significant, and Cheng Huo had even prepared a new stage in the management system that replaced the entire manor system.

Today was the assessment and the biggest annual event in the manor, so Cheng Huo was very serious. He swept his eyes past the entire information hall. The computer at Tang Qing’s desk was still turned off.

“She hasn’t come in these two days?” Cheng Huo pursed his lips and raised an eyebrow, obviously displeased.

Jerry stood next to him. After half a month, he had pretty much recovered from his injury. “Miss Tang said she wanted to take the assessment seriously.”

“Oh.” Cheng Huo nodded. In this month, he had already gained a clear understanding of Tang Qing’s malpractice. “Remove her position first. If she passes the assessment four days later, put it back.”

Then, he took a piece of bread and went to the training ground while eating.

As the leader of the information hall, he was responsible for their assessment together with Cheng Shui.

**

The big training ground had been completely transformed.

There were lanterns placed inside, along with several rings and boxing machines.

An unusual bustling could be seen when they entered.

Perhaps because of the rows of red lanterns hung on the training ground in a foreign country, most Chinese people felt especially cordial.

The annual assessment of the manor was equivalent to the New Year.

This year, everyone was even more excited due to Cheng Juan’s presence.

In the middle was a one-meter-tall ring platform with a full area of 100 square meters. Two rows of high chairs were placed on the ring platform, along with furry blankets on the bench and a small sandalwood table beside.

The chairs were for Cheng Juan, the leaders of each hall, Qin Ran, Gu Xichi, and the rest.

One meter away from the ring was a cordon.

Surrounding it was a row of 500 big and small chairs, divided into five areas. Other than the four halls, the servants in the manor had also come to watch the show.

At the top was a huge projector five meters long and three meters wide. It was the size of a wall and projected each person’s punching force coefficient and assessment score.

Most of the martial artists here had sensitive five senses and could see even from afar. This projector had been set up for the servants.

The assessment started officially at eight.

Everyone sat down at their seats. Cheng Juan sat in the first position on the left, with Qin Ran, Gu Xichi, and the others beside him.

Reaching out, Gu Xichi knocked on the sandalwood table. He turned to Qin Ran on his left and whispered, “This table is very valuable.”

He finally understood what it meant by “Some people are so poor, all they have is money”.

The training ground was buzzing with noise. Gu Xichi observed the surroundings for a moment. Qin Ran’s bipolar disorder wasn’t as obvious today, but her beautiful eyebrows were still knitted together slightly.

Gu Xichi was slightly surprised at her composure.

“Is it very valuable?” Qin Ran put on her headphones and glanced at the table. She couldn’t see what was so special about it.

It looked just like an ordinary piece of wood.

Looking away, Gu Xichi turned and glanced at Cheng Juan again. He had his head lowered and was talking to the leaders.

Gu Xichi fell deep in thought.

**

While Gu Xichi was talking, the people in the stands were also discussing.

“Do you see her? The one sitting next to the boss is Miss Qin.”

“Oh, she’s Miss Qin...”

Qin Ran was of good repute in the manor. Although Cheng Shui had sent her picture to everyone to prevent anyone from bumping into her, most people had only heard of her big name and few had actually seen her.

This was the first time most of them saw her. Hence, most of them discussed her as much as they discussed Cheng Juan.

Cheng Shui was wearing a formal suit today. As the manager of the manor, he naturally hosted the opening. “This year’s rules are the same as the previous years’. First will be the newcomer assessment, then the challenge.”

Cheers erupted around the ring.

Cheng Juan’s business was getting bigger and the manor wanted to recruit 30 newcomers in each hall this year.

Cheng Shui held a list in his hand.

This list ranked from top to bottom the overall strength of all the newcomers.

The first place was Tang Qing, who didn’t need to be evaluated at first.

“The first appraiser, Tang Qing of the information hall.” Cheng Shui put the list away and glanced at the information hall’s men.

Tang Qing’s reputation had expanded over the past month. Hence, the crowd exclaimed when they heard her name.

“That’s her? Mr. Cheng Huo’s junior? Is she going to be assessed as well?”

“Her assessment should be easy, right?”

Sitting on the first row next to Jerry, she finally felt relieved when she heard voices discussing her.

She stood up and walked directly from the side of the stairs to the edge of the ring, her angular chin lifted slightly.

She had tied her curly blond hair up.

Walking to the center of the ring, she felt the eyes of the audience gathered on her.

“Mr. Cheng Shui.” She smiled and bowed.

She glanced at the people sitting on either side of the ring out of the corners of her eyes. Cheng Juan seemed to be watching, while Qin Ran was playing games. Gu Xichi was talking to Jiang Dongye, and only a few leaders were looking at her.

Squeezing her hands into tight fists, her face still looked cold, but she was sneering inside.

Cheng Shui took a step back and looked at the huge screen behind the ring. At this time, 421 names appeared on it.

“Tang Qing, these are all the names of the participants in the assessment. Choose one of them as your opponent today. Please choose with careful consideration.” Cheng Shui pointed to the screen.

The screen was large enough to mark the serial number from the first person to the last person’s name.

1. Cheng Shui.

2. Leader Du.

3. Cheng Huo.

4...

Tang Qing looked through the list one by one. After coming to the manor for so long, she knew that Cheng Shui had hit the previous record of 910.

Leader Du was the first person under him.

Tang Qing already knew of Cheng Huo’s strength. As the leader of the information hall, he was certainly not weak.

She also knew that the list was probably ranked according to strength.

She thought that Qin Ran would be within the hundredth place since she was so respected. But after looking through for a long time, she had yet to see her name in the two hundredth place.

Two minutes later, Cheng Shui couldn’t help but ask, “Tang Qing, have you decided? Just report the serial number.”

When Tang Qing felt like Qin Ran wasn’t on the list, she finally found her name.

421. Qin Ran.

Seeing this, Tang Qing suddenly laughed.
