Chapter 461 - 215: The Temple Takes Notice
The remarkable achievements in the third trial could not escape the discerning eyes of Elder Niu. According to the records in the "Register of the Talented," Lu Hong’s performance in the first three trials had already met the standards for recruitment by the God Temple.
Thus, Elder Niu, carrying the "Register of the Talented," went straight to the retreat of the Hall Master of the Strength God Temple.
"Niu Zhongshan seeks an audience with the Hall Master!"
"Niu Zhongshan..." The Hall Master softly murmured the other’s name, "Come in."
"Thank you, Hall Master."
He pushed the door and entered. It was dusk by then, and the slanting sunset light coming through the window fell upon the Hall Master, making him appear extremely grave.
"Hall Master? Are you..." Elder Niu almost thought that his own Hall Master had passed away.
"Zhongshan, speak quickly and don’t overthink," the Hall Master instructed. Niu Zhongshan was also a veteran of the God Temple, and the Hall Master knew him well. He was loyal and diligent, but unfortunately not very astute, prone to wild conjectures. Therefore, the Hall Master had assigned him to the Transit Center to independently manage the Formation, to avoid too much contact with other people, lest he be stricken by bouts of fanciful thinking.
