Secretly Crushing Him
Seeing Ye Qiu's hurried departure, Tang Yu felt quite satisfied.
First, prevent this guy from cultivating.
I'll work harder to improve myself!
Roll him to death!
While Tang Yu was secretly acting as a damned, competitive dog.
Qiu Xiaozhu, a street hustler from the Nine Heavens Alliance, leisurely returned to her courtyard carrying a romance novel.
The yard had been swept clean.
Qiu Xiaozhu nodded, a satisfied expression on her face.
Well, this resentful disciple is quite diligent, except for the occasional slight disrespect he shows me, otherwise he's alright.
And putting everything else aside, ever since I took this guy as my apprentice...
Life feels much more lively now, unlike before when I was all alone.
Upon reaching the door, she immediately spotted the note stuck to it.
After picking up the note and glancing at it, she couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"So fussy and indecisive."
After muttering something to herself, she crumpled the note into a ball and tossed it aside. Then she looked at the several packs of stockings on the ground.
After thinking for a moment, she opened the door, went back inside, opened a pack of black stockings, and put them on her legs.
"Hmm, it fits quite well."
After putting it on and feeling pretty good about it, Qiu Xiaozhu went to the mirror and looked at herself. It actually matched her long dress quite well.
But... why are there two little tank tops?
She does look quite good, though. She seems to like this sexy vibe, and it makes her look more mature.
"It's alright."
Satisfied, he put away the several packs of stockings.
She rummaged through her drawers and pulled out two bottles of Focus-Settling Pill, intending to deliver them to Tang Yu and Ye Qiu the next day.
With the monthly promotion exam approaching.
The outer disciples were all very excited about this and began to speculate about which disciples would be promoted from outer disciples to inner disciples this month.
For the outer disciples of the Nine Heavens Alliance
Becoming an inner disciple is undoubtedly their greatest motivation for cultivation.
Once you become an inner disciple, you can choose an elder to become your master.
One of the strict requirements for becoming an elder in the Nine Heavens Alliance is that one must have the cultivation level of the Celestial Realm cultivator!
With a master at the Celestial Realm guiding one's cultivation, progress is naturally twice as efficient.
In addition, inner disciples receive various benefits, such as a total of five Focus-Settling Pill each month.
As for going out on missions and such.
Only inner disciples can get such a good job.
Outer disciples are generally not allowed to go out unless there are special circumstances.
"Junior Brother Ling, good luck today!"
"Junior Brother Ling's strength makes his entry into the inner sect a certainty."
"Hey, you've brought honor to us disciples from other families!"
Accompanying Tang Yu Tang Yu a large group of people, including Wang Kangping, who were all smiling and cheering her on.
Disciples from other clans tend to stick together in the Nine Heavens Alliance, sharing a mentality of mutual benefit and shared loss.
Ye Qiu, however, is an exception.
He stood there alone, and no one within a three-meter radius was willing to approach him.
The disciples from other families thought he was too pretentious.
The disciple surnamed Qiu wanted to fight him, but he was no match for him.
Seeing Tang Yu surrounded by these people, a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.
Cattle and sheep love to herd, but the strong always walk alone!
Just then, the outer sect elder in charge of the exam arrived with a group of inner sect disciples.
After these inner disciples arrived, many of them stared at Ye Qiu with hostile eyes.
Clearly, Ye Qiu's near-crippling of Qiu Wuji in the outer sect had drawn their attention and fueled their resentment.
According to the rules, it is very simple for an outer disciple to be promoted to an inner disciple.
When fighting against three inner disciples of the same level, as long as you can win two rounds or draw two rounds, you can succeed.
Then you've successfully passed the exam.
The outer sect elder in charge of the exam, hearing the crowd still discussing, waved his hand and called out.
"Alright, everyone quiet down. The exam is about to begin. Next, those whose names I call, please come up to the stage and prepare for the exam."
Everyone immediately fell silent, and the outer sect elder quickly announced three names.
These three were among the first to sign up, and all of them were at the mid-stage of the Heaven Realm.
One of them had a gloomy expression; he was the unlucky guy who had been thrown from the inner sect to the outer sect last month.
Becoming an inner disciple does not mean you'll live a comfortable life.
On the contrary, the inner circle has a bottom-ranking elimination mechanism every month.
He was unfortunately eliminated last month.
He has been in seclusion and cultivating diligently since arriving at the outer sect this month, all for the sake of passing the exam today and returning to the inner sect!
After being called upon, the three jumped onto the arena specially prepared for the exam.
Three of the inner disciples who had come with the outer sect elders also jumped up.
"Stop when you've made your point."
After giving a brief instruction, the outer sect elder waved his hand, and the six people on the platform immediately began fighting.
Tang Yu stood below the stage, watching the battle unfold with great interest.
It must be said that, although both are at the mid-stage of the Heaven Realm, those trained by the Nine Heavens Alliance are indeed more powerful.
Basically, everyone knows four or five ancient martial arts techniques, and they are quite proficient in them.
These techniques, when used in combination, can greatly increase their combat power.
After half an hour...
The first round of testing is over; only one of the three passed, while the other two failed.
Dejected, they jumped off the stage and went back to continue their training, preparing for the next month.
Ye Qiu was the second person to take the exam.
It has to be said that the moment Ye Qiu stepped onto the stage, the hatred level instantly reached its maximum.
Without any arrangement from the outer sect elders, three inner sect disciples surnamed Qiu immediately volunteered.
All three of them possessed peak Heaven Realm strength.
He is considered one of the best among the inner disciples.
One of them was Qiu Wuji's cousin. With a gloomy expression, he jumped onto the stage, wanting to be the first to fight Ye Qiu.
I'm going to break one of that kid's arms today, no matter what.
Let him know that the Qiu family disciple is not someone anyone can bully to death!
Just as the two were about to start fighting, a short, adorable little girl ran over from a distance.
Upon seeing Qiu Xiaozhu, the disciples all greeted her warmly, saying, "Greetings, Holy Maiden."
Qiu Xiaozhu nodded in response, then ran up to Tang Yu and let out a burp.
"You're done playing?"
"I haven't even started yet, but Senior Brother Ye is about to begin fighting."
Tang Yu smiled and took out a pack of tissues, pulled one out and used it to wipe Qiu Xiaozhu's face.
"What?"
Qiu Xiaozhu turned her head away and raised an eyebrow.
"Master, you have a scallion stuck to your face."
As Tang Yu spoke, she plucked the small green scallion and wiped it twice with a tissue.
Qiu Xiaozhu responded with an "oh," sounding somewhat embarrassed.
"I had something to do this morning and ate breakfast late. I only remembered you had your exams when I was halfway through, and then I rushed over and didn't pay attention."
"Master cares so much about me, I am deeply moved."
Tang Yu reached out and pretended to wipe away tears.
[Master is dishonest.]
[So what if I woke up late?]
Don't think I don't know you sleep until 10 a. m. every day.
[Hey, she's wearing the stockings I bought for her? They do look pretty good, but the skirt is a bit too long.]
[I'll find a chance to buy her a couple of JK (high school girl) outfits later.]
