Zhu Zhuqing Joins the Primordial Immortal Court, Poop Scooping?

A slightly older woman standing nearby swept a glance over her, indifferent.

"Just a mortal. There isn't a shred of divine power in her body; she's far too weak."

"Though, this girl's willpower is passable, and her constitution..."

The woman scrutinized Zhu Zhuqing, a flicker of surprise crossing her eyes.

"She actually possesses a trace of the Spirit Cat bloodline? It's so thin it's almost negligible, but in a wasteland like this, it's quite rare."

"Since we've crossed paths, it must be fate."

"The sect's spirit beast garden happens to be short on, ahem, short on a few menial maids to look after the spirit cats. Although this girl is weak, she is of the same kind, so she should be up to the task."

With that, the outer-sect disciple waved her hand casually.

A gentle white light descended from ten thousand meters above, precisely enveloping Zhu Zhuqing.

Zhu Zhuqing felt the gravity that had been on the verge of crushing her vanish in an instant!

A warm current surged into her body, and the wounds on her frame healed at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Immediately after, her body lifted uncontrollably, soaring toward the massive bronze warship.

"This, this is..."

Zhu Zhuqing watched in horror as the warship drew nearer, along with the two figures who looked like celestial maidens standing upon it.

"Don't be afraid, little sister."

The girl in green robes, a menial servant, looked at Zhu Zhuqing with a grin.

"You're quite lucky to have run into our Primordial Immortal Court's procurement team while we were out gathering spirit materials."

"I find you rather pleasing to the eye, so just follow my lead from now on!"

As she spoke, the girl in green casually pulled a shriveled fruit—one that looked as if it had been left out for ages—from the pouch at her waist and tossed it to Zhu Zhuqing.

"Look at how thin you are. This defective Blood-Qi Fruit was left over from feeding the spirit beasts yesterday. I couldn't be bothered to throw it away, so consider it a reward. Eat it quickly to nourish your body; don't go dying on me from the wind once we're up there."

Zhu Zhuqing caught the fruit instinctively.

Though it was shriveled, the moment it touched her hand, an intensely rich fragrance drilled into her nostrils!

She had only taken a single whiff.

BOOM!

Zhu Zhuqing felt the soul power within her instantly boil!

Level 27, level 28, level 29, level 30!

She hadn't even eaten it yet; merely smelling the fruit's aroma had shattered her soul power bottleneck!

"This..."

Zhu Zhuqing was left completely stunned.

Meanwhile, the countless people on the Douluo Continent watching the live broadcast were so jealous their eyes turned red!

At Shrek Academy.

Dai Mubai clawed at his hair frantically. "That was leftover feed for spirit beasts? She broke through just by smelling it? What would happen if she actually ate it?!"

Ning Rongrong was so envious she felt like crying. "That has to be an immortal fruit, right? It must be an immortal fruit! They actually feed it to spirit beasts? That sect is far too extravagant!"

Bibi Dong stared fixedly at the emblem on the green-robed girl's clothing: a cloud pattern.

"Primordial Immortal Court..."

"Even the trash casually discarded by a mere menial servant is a supreme treasure that we on the Douluo Continent dream of obtaining."

"Just what kind of magnificent existence is the master of that sect?!"

In the image, Zhu Zhuqing took a small bite of the fruit with trembling hands.

BOOM!!!

In an instant, a terrifying surge of energy exploded within her!

Level 30, level 35, level 40!

In just three breaths, she had jumped ten levels!

If the girl in green hadn't kindly patted her back to help her dissipate the medicinal power, she likely would have exploded and died on the spot!

"Too weak, far too weak. She nearly burst just from eating a defective fruit."

The girl in green shook her head, looking at her with disdain, yet she still pulled Zhu Zhuqing onto the warship.

Afterward.

The massive bronze warship changed course, shattering the clouds as it sailed toward the even more mysterious and vast immortal palaces deep within the Great Wilderness.

As for Flender, who remained behind?

No one spared him a second glance, leaving him to fend for himself on the ground.

[Zhu Zhuqing has joined the high-dimensional faction—Primordial Immortal Court (Menial Affairs Division)!]

[Current Status: Alive!]

[Obtained Opportunity: One Primordial Immortal Court Spirit Beast Ration (Defective)!]

Looking at this line of text on the sky screen, the mentality of everyone on the Douluo Continent completely collapsed.

Some people worked themselves to death only to be bitten to death by ants, while others, just because of good luck, became a pooper-scooper for someone else and ascended to the heavens after eating their leftovers?

Is there any justice left in this world?!

Above the bronze warship, the gale howled.

This warship traveled above the nine heavens at an astonishing speed, with the surrounding clouds receding like streaks of light.

If not for a faint golden light screen enveloping the hull, the terrifying wind pressure alone would have been enough to tear Zhu Zhuqing to pieces.

In the corner of the deck, Zhu Zhuqing sat cross-legged, her body wreathed in a faint halo of soul power.

The medicinal power of that defective Blood-Qi Fruit was simply too overbearing; even though the girl in green servant robes had helped her neutralize a portion of it, the remaining energy still caused her soul power to soar like a rocket.

Level 41, Level 42...

In the end, her soul power stabilized at the realm of a Level 43 Soul Ancestor!

In just half an hour, she had crossed an entire major rank!

Zhu Zhuqing opened her eyes, her beautiful pupils filled with shock and disbelief.

On the Douluo Continent, the further a soul master progressed in their cultivation, the harder it became. Once reaching the Soul Ancestor level, even a genius would require months of bitter training to advance a single level.

Yet here, it was just a rotten fruit that someone else didn't want?

"Awake?"

A crisp voice drifted over.

The girl dressed in green servant robes was squatting nearby, holding an unknown beast bone in her hand, gnawing on it while curiously sizing up Zhu Zhuqing.

"Many thanks to the Immortal for saving my life."

Zhu Zhuqing hurriedly stood up and bowed respectfully.

Having witnessed the magnificence of this warship and the methods of that outer sect female disciple, she had long since put away all her pride.

"Pfft, Immortal?"

The girl in green nearly spat out her food in laughter and waved her hand.

"Don't call me that. My name is Xiao Cui, just a low-level servant responsible for cleaning the Spirit Beast Garden. I'm no Immortal."

"As for you, why is your physical constitution so poor? Even a defective Red Vermilion Fruit almost blew you apart."

Xiao Cui looked at Zhu Zhuqing with some disdain.

"Looking at your bone age, you're already over ten, right? Why is there no blood-qi in your body at all? You're even more ordinary than an ordinary mortal."

Zhu Zhuqing's face revealed a bitter expression.

She, a mortal?

She was the second young lady of the Zhu Clan of the Star Luo Empire, one of the Shrek Seven Devils, and a recognized genius of the Douluo Continent!

Yet in the other party's mouth, she had become even more ordinary than a mortal?

"May I ask, Miss Xiao Cui, what is your current cultivation level?" Zhu Zhuqing asked tentatively.

At this moment, the camera in the live broadcast room gave Xiao Cui a close-up.

The audience on the Douluo Continent all pricked up their ears.

Just how strong was this cute girl who looked about the same age as Zhu Zhuqing and even had a bit of baby fat?

Xiao Cui scratched her head and said with some embarrassment:

"Me? My talent is too poor. I've been in the sect for three years, and I've only just reached the initial perfection of the Blood Moving Realm."

"With a single arm, I only have about 8,000 catties of strength."
