Chapter 488: Domain court system

Yang Qing's eyes lit up like a baby's when he heard that. He looked like he could have blinded the whole room, if tears didn't well up in his eyes, to dim the light up.

"Good, good.." he muttered over and over, with a growing smile that was filled with relief.

"I'm on the right track," he thought as he clenched his fists with renewed motivation.

"How many cases do you usually handle per year?" he asked.

"Well it's never the same, but when you start at the outer domain courts, the cases are usually about 15 or less, and that number shrinks the further up one moves. In my current post, for those who make it here, the case is usually one or two at most a year, and certain years may pass by without one..."

Yang Qing's smile grew wider and his eyes turned crescent-shaped, with little tear drops falling out.

"So you're free for the year?" he eagerly asked.
