Chapter 412 - 409: Insult_1
Bai Qingping felt somewhat softened by the plea. Just as he was about to look at Bai Qingyan for her opinion, he heard Shen Yanzong say, "Rules are rules. I witnessed your efforts today, but your physical strength is indeed lacking. Even if we let you stay today, I’m afraid you’ll lose your life to fierce bandits during the future eradication. Letting you leave is for your own good! Also, the Bai family is funding this training, not to support idlers."
Bai Qingyan felt relieved upon hearing Shen Yanzong’s words. She closed her book, stood up, and left with a squad of guards, without saying a word.
Bai Qingping turned to look at Bai Qingyan, understanding that she agreed with Shen Yanzong.
Seeing this, Shen Yanzong couldn’t help but smile, feeling a hint of pride. His father had ultimately chosen him, knowing he could win the favor of the Princess of Zhen!
He was determined to prove to his father that the decision to choose him was the right one.
Shen Yanzong instructed people to help the top three take their meat home. The others were dismissed back to their tents. He then bade farewell to Bai Qingping and left.
Soon, the news of the three citizens being asked to leave the training ground spread.
Those who hadn’t intended to join the training for bandit eradication heard that there was ample food at the training ground, and even meat in every meal. If they ranked in the top three during practice, they could take meat home to improve their family’s meals. Each one was eager to join.
