It was almost March.
It was time for the Outer Sect assessment again.
Jiang Man was now an Inner Sect Disciple within the Outer Sect.
Therefore, his Outer Sect assessment was optional.
He was also unable to participate in the annual grand competition.
After all, an Inner Sect Disciple participating in the Outer Sect's annual grand competition would just be bullying.
He could, however, participate in the courtyard assessment, though that would also be a form of bullying.
So, in exchange for a handsome sum of Spiritual Source from each of the courtyard's top three members, Jiang Man decided to sit out this assessment.
"We're all on the same side. I understand that you need the rankings," Jiang Man said with a slight smile as he accepted the six thousand Spiritual Source.
The first-place contender paid three thousand, the second two thousand, and the third one thousand.
Zhuo Bufan, Zhao Yaoyao, and Lin Qingshan were all quite moved.
