Supreme Yin Peak.

Li Xuansu received a message from the female deacon at the recruitment office. "Oh, a promising talent wants to join our Supreme Simplicity Sect. My Supreme Yin Peak has been in decline for a long time. I have to secure this promising talent."

She immediately transformed into a gentle breeze and raced toward the Illusion Array Trial.

Soon, the Innate Realm elders of the Supreme Simplicity Sect arrived at the Illusion Array Trial one after another. Dongfang Bai had just entered, and the trial had only just begun.

Boom!!!

Inside the Illusion Array Trial, Dongfang Bai had forgotten that he had come to the Supreme Simplicity Sect and forgotten about the assessment under the array's influence. Illusions also appeared around him.

A group of men with excellent figures appeared all around him. Every one of them was handsome, and they walked toward Dongfang Bai.

"The Illusion Array Trial is very difficult to pass. Right at the start, you encounter a lot of handsome men. If your heart is moved, it's easy to fail this stage and gradually become immersed in it," Li Xuansu said.

"This stage really is difficult. When Elder Xuansu joined the sect, she was admitted directly. It seems she tried the Illusion Array Trial and fell at the first stage," another Innate Realm Eighth Layer elder, her face covered in wrinkles, teased Li Xuansu.

"Elder Yuqing, please don't tease me," Li Xuansu said awkwardly.

"Do you think this young lady called Dongfang Bai can pass this stage?" another elder asked.

"She has a chance, but this stage doesn't affect whether she can join our Supreme Simplicity Sect. As long as she performs well enough in the first two trials, she can still join the sect," Li Xuansu said.

Inside the Illusion Array Trial.

Dongfang Bai frowned. Why had he appeared here? Why were these men surrounding him? He was a man too, a man with a feminine face, and matters of the heart did little to move him. But with a group of men surrounding him, some of them rather scantily clad, all he felt was disgust.

"Scram!"

Dongfang Bai shouted.

Yet the men in the illusion array continued closing in around him, revealing even more.

"Die!" Dongfang Bai struck. Silver needles burst forth and pierced the men, who soon vanished. The first round of the Illusion Array Trial was over.

At that moment.

Outside, the elders were dumbstruck. "What a steadfast Dao heart. So many handsome men, yet she remained unmoved. To be honest, even if I were to take the Illusion Array Trial now, I'm afraid I'd make a fool of myself if I didn't know it was an illusion array."

"This woman is undoubtedly a promising talent for cultivating the Dao of Ruthlessness!" One elder was tempted and wanted to take Dongfang Bai as her disciple.

"Let's keep watching. The second round of the Illusion Array Trial is no simple matter."

The elders continued watching.

The illusion array exerted its power again, and Dongfang Bai forgot what had just happened. He now found himself in a residence within a city, where some demonic path disciples had appeared and were slaughtering the people of the household.

Among these demonic path disciples were three True Qi Realm martial artists. In terms of strength, the gap between Dongfang Bai and them was far too great.

Watching the scene, Li Xuansu said with a sigh, "This stage is difficult. Her luck isn't very good, running into an illusion like this. Without knowing it's an illusion array, the wisest choice would be to flee. But if she flees, these demonic path disciples will kill everyone here, including the children. Elders, how would you handle this situation?"

"I'm afraid of dying, so I'd definitely flee."

"I'd flee too, then come back and kill these demonic path people once I'd grown stronger."

The elders saw nothing wrong with that. Choosing to do so would simply mean failing the assessment, but the assessment had never been intended to let people pass in the first place. Even so, everyone behaved differently during the process.

This stage also served to screen out people of the demonic path. If one entered the assessment here, they would join the ranks of those demonic path people and slaughter the residents of the household, exposing themselves as a demonic path disciple.

They were quite curious how Dongfang Bai would choose.

Inside the illusion array.

Dongfang Bai saw a child about to die beneath a demonic path disciple's butcher's blade, and he acted.

"Demonic path scum deserve to die!"

Dongfang Bai activated the Formless Secret Method, then unleashed the Taiyi Devil Needle. Streaks of cold light pierced the bodies of the demonic path disciples one after another. He quickly reached the child, scooped the child up, and prepared to carry the child to safety.

He couldn't save everyone. He could only try to save one person.

"Courting death."

A True Qi Realm demonic path martial artist attacked. Dongfang Bai gave it his all, unleashing the power of the Taiyi Devil Needle and using the Soul-Capturing Needle, a Profound-grade Law Treasure.

Pfft!

The Soul-Capturing Needle pierced the True Qi Realm martial artist's palm, injuring him. But the martial artist still sent Dongfang Bai flying with a palm strike from a distance.

Just as Dongfang Bai was preparing to fight for his life, the illusion array vanished, and he once again forgot what had just happened.

Outside.

Li Xuansu and the others were astonished. Dongfang Bai's performance had left them shocked as well.

"Demonic path scum deserve to die. Dongfang Bai is definitely not a demonic path disciple. This woman hates the demonic path so much and shows its disciples no mercy. She's so righteous that, to be honest, even I am not as righteous as she is," an elder said in shame. After all, in those circumstances, she wouldn't have dared attack the demonic path disciples.

"However, the needle-type Law Treasure Dongfang Bai brought out at the end had a rather sinister air. It didn't look much like a righteous path Law Treasure!" an elder said.

"It's only a Law Treasure. As long as it suits them, anyone can use it. Dongfang Bai specializes in hidden weapons, so there's nothing wrong with her using a somewhat sinister Law Treasure. As long as it can kill demonic path disciples, it's a good Law Treasure."

"True. Law Treasures are neither righteous nor evil; it also depends on who uses them. Can any of you honestly say there's nothing from the demonic path in your Storage Bags?"

"All right, let's not discuss that. Let's see how Dongfang Bai performs next. There's one final round of the Illusion Array Trial. This stage tests greed, to see whether she'll kill someone and seize their treasure," an elder said.

Kill someone and seize their treasure!

The righteous path did not permit such things, but which elder present dared claim she had never done it?

Of course, they couldn't admit to such things.

Inside the illusion array, Dongfang Bai appeared in a village, where an ordinary villager had stumbled upon a manual for a high-grade Earth-tier martial art, as well as some resources.

Dongfang Bai saw these things but didn't make a move. It was only a high-grade Earth-tier martial art. He even had Heaven-tier martial arts and cultivation methods, so naturally he looked down on these.

Thus, he ignored them and left the village.

The assessment was over.

"Too perfect."

The elders sighed in admiration. It was their first time encountering such a perfect woman: full of a sense of justice, with a steadfast Dao heart, free of greed, and gifted with excellent aptitude, comprehension, and looks. She was undoubtedly a flawless woman, enough to make even them feel ashamed!

"I want this woman," one elder declared.

"Hmph, elders, don't compete with me. My Supreme Yin Peak lacks disciples, and I want her too," Li Xuansu said, unwilling to back down.

The elders competed fiercely and began arguing.

Just then, Dongfang Bai came out. The instant he emerged, his memories came back, and he also learned what had happened inside the illusion array. He couldn't help feeling a lingering fear. Fortunately, there had been no problem at all with his performance inside, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

"Dongfang Bai, be my disciple!"

"Dongfang Bai, I'm at the Innate Realm Eighth Layer. Be my disciple."

The elders spoke up one after another, all vying for Dongfang Bai.

"This..."

Dongfang Bai hadn't expected to be so popular. A group of Supreme Simplicity Sect elders were all fighting to take him as a disciple.
