Remorse After Breaking Up novel Chapter 587

In the Starlight Empire, the Netherworld Sect remained incredibly powerful and out of reach. For the commoners, joining this sect was the most promising way to change their fate.

If they could enter the Netherworld Sect and pass the assessment, they would have the chance to become warriors and achieve the status of nobility.

Becoming a noble was every commoner's dream, as it was the only way to earn respect. They would continue to suffer from the nobility's disdain without this status.

Even a marriage could be problematic for the commoners, as these nobles might take advantage of their bride first. This created a deeply frustrating situation.

Each year, the Netherworld Sect held a recruitment assessment, and thousands of people showed up to participate. This year was no different.

Sebastian had traveled overnight. When he arrived at the entrance of the Crosscurrent Valley, the sky was still dark. However, the area outside the valley was already packed with people.

Most candidates arrived in groups, with some being accompanied by their families. Wealthy families arrived in carriages with a group of housekeepers.

These groups were usually the descendants of nobles. Ordinary people dared not approach them, so they kept their distance.

Sebastian found a quiet spot and waited patiently for the assessment to begin. Soon, two young men and a young woman approached him.

"Are you here alone?" the leading man asked.

Sebastian nodded.

"Do you want to join our team?" the man asked again.

"Team?" Sebastian asked, looking puzzled.

The man looked surprised. "You don't know anything about this, huh?"

Sebastian replied humbly, "I'm from a remote village and don't know much. Please explain."
