Chapitre 240: Shokoya Reappears

There were actually two fewer groups ahead of us once we signed up for the Riddle Tower. By now, a great many who had arrived at the start had been dismissed, and though new arrivals had come in fairly steadily, and most even preferred to sign up for the Riddle Tower before the Hunting Trial, there were quite a few more people leaving than arriving. So, in three days, we would at last conclude the entry exam for the Great Divine School sects. 

As I began to head toward the Pavillion of Promise, a voice called out, "Xu Zuhui!" 

It was a voice I hadn't expected to hear. "Of course, I knew you were here. But I didn't expect for you to actually show yourself in front of me, or any of us really during all this...Shokoya." 

Whispered reactions among those around us were nearly instantaneous. And to think I'd been hoping to get through this without rumors that the new Zodiac Champions knew Shokoya.
