Chapter 416: In Cahoots

"I'm sorry, Miss Huo, this was actually a test game that my master and I specially designed for you,"

Ji Kun wore a look of guilt, yet he felt quite pleased, clearly satisfied with the results of the test.

After that incident at Yucailou, Ji Kun had his doubts about Huo Sining's talent. Although Huo Sining had declined his offer, he still felt a sense of regret and unwillingness to give up. So, he spoke to his teacher, Elder Zhou Shitao, about it the same day.

Initially, Zhou Shitao was skeptical, but after much pleading from Ji Kun, he decided to give Huo Sining a chance.

To test the true extent of Huo Sining's abilities and fearing that she might intentionally hide her skills due to resistance, Ji Kun thought of the Baiyang Box that Zhou Shitao often used to test him and his fellow disciples.

Zhou Shitao possessed a Baiyang Box filled with numerous counterfeit items so exquisitely made that even some of the most skilled experts couldn't tell them apart from the real ones.
