"Junior Sister, I'll be counting on you for this entrance trial."
Gou Dizhen sidled up beside her.
"I'm sure that with Senior Sister Xiao overseeing this entrance trial, there won't be any problems!"
Tian Gou was unwilling to be outdone either. When it came to "bootlicking," Tian Gou had never feared anyone!
"That's not all! With Junior Sister's blessings of fortune this time, I'm sure she'll discover quite a few geniuses!"
Miao Renfeng of the Cold Snow Sect praised her even more enthusiastically.
As for the fawning of these senior brothers, Xiao Xueli acted as though she hadn't heard them. She merely stared blankly into the distance.
Beyond the endless mountain ranges, tens of thousands of rogue cultivators were gathering.
Xiao Xueli truly did not want to preside over any entrance trial.
But she had no choice. It was the Cold Snow Sect's rule that every Direct Disciple had to preside over an entrance trial once.
This was similar to the chief examiner of the Imperial Examination in a Mortal World Empire. It allowed Xiao Xueli to take in a group of students and assume the status of their "mentor."
In other words, the Cold Snow Sect was openly encouraging its disciples to cultivate their own factions...
To be honest, the Cold Snow Sect was truly rather strange in certain respects.
Other sects could not make head or tail of it. Wasn't the Cold Snow Sect afraid that, once the various factions rose up, the entire sect would be torn apart?
Behind Xiao Xueli, as they watched these senior brothers turn into bootlickers, several female Direct Disciples from the various peaks rolled their eyes at them.
Of course, most of them were envious of and worshiped Senior Sister Xiao, who had entered the sect less than six years ago yet
