Death… And Me Chapter 1117 - Congratulations

Cassia had done this recruitnt many, many tis. She obviously paid a lot of attention to the numbers as it went forward. "22539 doesn't fit. Shouldn't there be another extra four? There's supposed to be 22543 people that haven't arrived in the Soul Eater Sect instead."

It was then that the reason why the subordinate seed to have a conflicted expression ca. "Those four...seed to have exited the barrier and are heading back to our Huring Sacred Land at this very mont. They... opened a hole in the seal."

Cassia's expression finally changed after that. She imdiately grabbed the guy and asked with a cold voice, "What did you say? How co no one told that before?"

The subordinate then explained with a scared expression, "It's because we were only collecting the information about their positions. We weren't looking at each one of them individually as there were just too many of them. The only ones we paid close attention to were the groups far ahead in the Soul Eater Sect."

He continued, "However, a few hours ago, we noticed that four cultivators suddenly disappeared. We had to use the tokens they had with them to finally find out where they had gone. We thought that it was so mistake and had so mbers check it. When they arrived in the place these four used to escape, they saw the sealed barrier repairing itself but had so difficulty in doing it."

Cassia found it ridiculous. "That's impossible! Do you know the level of the seal we used there? Youngsters at their level shouldn't even dream about being able to open a hole in it."

"We thought about it as well," the subordinate clarified. "That's why we took this long to report. We were investigating if they had received help from so high-level cultivator from outside."

Cassia finally let the subordinate go as she had to admit he made sense. "So, who was it? I want the guy or girl in front of imdiately! I'll show them what happens to those who try to intervene in our Sacred Land's recruitnt process. Do they think they can get by without us finding out? Ha! I'll skin those four cultivators and their helper alive!"

Unfortunately, the subordinate's expression turned even weirder as he answered, "The fact is... no one helped them. They really used their own abilities to open up a hole and escape."

Cassia felt like a bomb dropped on her head. "You must be kidding!"

"I wish I was," the guy could not help but say. "We already concluded the investigation. There was absolutely no one there to help them."

Cassia pondered in silence for a bit before saying, "Then, they must have brought so item that could do such a job. The problem is that there were no rules about it."

"That's not it either. They truly used their own cultivation to do that. Well, to be more specific, one of them did as the other three just watched."

Cassia found it even harder to believe. However, the subordinate still had to ask. "What should we do in this case? The whole idea of this test was to leave the Yin Death Zone Alive however the participants saw fit. It's just we never thought soone would find a different way than the teleport formation we prepared for them. Should we disqualify them?"

Cassia imdiately shook her head in response. "What do you want? To make a joke of our faces? If what you're saying is true, then we have no right to do anything to them. We were the ones to co up with this test, and they managed to accomplish its objective."

For so reason, Cassia's anger disappeared after saying that. "Hey, now that I think about it, isn't it quite interesting? I was hoping for sothing different to happen, just like it did in the first test with those weird twins. It seems like we have even more interesting people this ti around. The Huring Country disciples will feel quite ashad to see that so other countries were ahead of them. Perhaps this isn't a bad result at all. It goes to show that they aren't invincible."

"By the way, who are the cultivators who succeeded in doing that? Don't let them make it all the way back on their own. Send one of our experts to bring them here straight away as I want to ask them how they opened the barrier. I want those four, especially the one who destroyed the barrier, in front of in at most one hour." Cassia was quite happy to see that happen.

"This..." However, the subordinate couldn't help but scratch the back of his head after hearing that. "It's exactly those twins who are part of that four-person group. To be more specific, it was the black-haired Dark Elent Affinity youngster that opened the barrier."

Cassia was taken aback. "Really?"

"Really!"

Cassia then thought about sothing. "Alright, bring them here anyway. If they travel to the nearest teleport formation, it will still take them a whole week to arrive. There aren't any active countries near the Yin Death Zone, after all. By the way, are they all from the sa country?

"No. The twins and a girl are from the Kamos Kingdom. But the fourth mber of their group is from the Apocal Country."

Cassia nodded after that. "Alright, you can go."

As soon as the subordinate left to carry the order, Cassia turned around and clapped her hand. She also used Divine Energy so that the sound would reach all the people watching the second test. "Congratulations! We have our first batch of cultivators out of the Yin Death Zone."

Imdiately, the room went into an uproar. After all, everyone was watching the battles that were going on.

"The Huring Country was the furthest group ahead, right?"

"That they were."

"It must be them."

"Or maybe so of the other strong countries."

"Indeed."

However, Cassia raised her hand to make everyone stop talking. "Kamos Kingdom's Rean, Roan, and Milina, and Apocal Country's Julian. May the ones responsible for them co forward."

Fabio and the elders watching Julian felt a chill on their back.. 'Sure enough, it had to be them,' they all thought.
