Chu Liuyue did not have a single clue about what was happening outside. The moment she picked up the flag, fireworks immediately flew up and exploded in mid-air.
She raised her brows in confusion. She initially thought that only the top scholar would have such treatment, but she did not expect that second place would be announced in such a high-key manner.
She purposely came in second to not get into too much trouble. However, this was not bad as well. At the very least, there would be no ignorant people that dared to cause trouble for her from now on.
"Are you Chu Liuyue?"
Chu Liuyue turned around and saw a kind old man sizing her up.
Behind him were two other middle-aged men.
A mini Xuan formation floated beside them.
She realized that these three men were the Xuan Masters controlling the Xuan formation in the forest.
She bent her knees and bowed. "Greetings, teachers."
