"Alright, let's get back to the main topic. Today, regardless of whether we've achieved Qi cultivation or not, we'll begin learning swordsmanship." Hua Nongying took out her sword again. "I come from the Yunyang Sect, which you probably know is the sect of sword cultivators."

The disciples were in an uproar. Yunyang Sect was one of the two major sects in the cultivation world, on par with Feixing Sect. Yunyang Sect was jokingly called the "family of sword cultivators" and was the dream destination of all sword cultivators.

Qi Yu's eyes flickered slightly. The male protagonist of this world, Chu Mo, was a disciple of the Yunyang Sect. Perhaps Hua Nongying knew him.

The original owner had entered the Yunyang Sect with the male lead's help, but only as the male lead's maid, and had little presence on a daily basis. Now, she has changed her face and doesn't need to worry about getting into the trouble the original owner used to have.

Hua Nongying demonstrated a few sword moves and then invited some senior brothers and sisters to come in and help guide her. Fortunately, Xu Shen, who always liked to find fault, did not come this time, so Qi Yu was able to follow along and learn without worry.

Although the Compassionate Sword is powerful, in her hands, with her rudimentary skills, she probably couldn't unleash even one percent of its power.

When they were sweating profusely from training, the bell rang to signal the end of get out of class. Qi Yu told Gou Dan to go eat first and waited quietly outside the hall.

"Is Miss Qi waiting for me?"

Qi Yu turned around, and Zhu Que was looking at her leisurely.

She didn't beat around the bush and asked directly, "What's your purpose?"

"What's your purpose? Probably just boredom?" Zhu Que's deep eyes locked onto Qi Yu.

As if being targeted by some ancient behemoth, Qi Yu couldn't help but take two steps back and summon the Compassionate Sword.

Zhu Que suddenly laughed again, "Why are you so nervous? I'm not going to eat you."

He walked away without looking back, saying, "Please, Miss Qi, add a little more fun to my boring life."

Qi Yu stood there with his sword, wondering if this guy was there to amuse him.

Confused, she sheathed her sword and decided to go eat first.

Today, it wasn't Senior Sister Lan Yue who was in charge of cooking. After a bland and tasteless meal, Qi Yu shuffled slowly back to the courtyard, pondering the sword techniques she had learned that day and how to draw qi into her body.

As Qi Yu entered the courtyard, she suddenly noticed that two of the surrounding rooms seemed to be occupied.

She was about to go straight back to her room without much concern when a clear, melodious girl's voice, like a mountain spring, called out to her from behind.

"Miss Qi, please wait."

Qi Yu looked over in confusion, only to see Wu Qianqian, the elegant and pure-looking girl who had spoken up for her earlier.

Wu Qianqian walked over in a few steps, "I just moved in yesterday, so we'll be neighbors from now on."

Qi Yu suddenly realized that the new roommate was her. Just as she was wondering who the other one was, a familiar red figure pushed open another door and came out, smiling at her.

Qi Yu: "..."

Wu Qianqian didn't notice Qi Yu's speechless expression. She nodded to Zhu Que and continued, "I admire your courage to face the demon alone with a body devoid of spiritual power. I misjudged An Rong'er before. She betrayed her savior and has ulterior motives. She is not worthy to be my companion."

The girl's earnest tone made her chuckle, and she said, "Thank you, I just did what my heart told me to do, and I don't really care about the outcome."

Upon hearing this, Wu Qianqian's eyes showed even greater appreciation. "I like you very much. I am the daughter of the city lord of Wu City. If there is anything I can do to help you in the future, please don't hesitate to ask."

Qi Yu blinked, never expecting that saving a thankless wretch would result in gaining a powerful patron.

value!

Back in her room, Fengxiao transformed back into a little white bird and nestled in the blankets, fast asleep. Qi Yu shook her arms, which were a little sore from practicing swordsmanship, and then threw herself onto the bed.

New disciples are only required to attend the morning classes. In the afternoons, there will be occasional classes on alchemy or weapon crafting. The daily schedule will be displayed outside each disciple's room, and they can choose whether to attend based on their needs.

This afternoon is Master Jin's class on alchemy, and Qi Yu plans to attend.

After resting for a while, Qi Yu suddenly thought of something and asked the system, which had been silent since its true colors were discovered, "System, tell me, if I cleared my name today and exposed An Rong'er's true colors so that others wouldn't be deceived by her, does that count as doing a good deed for the day?"

The system seemed speechless for a moment before finally replying: "This...does this count?"

Qi Yu: "Hmm... how can it not count? This is great news!"

After hesitating for a long time, the system said: "I'll go ask my superiors."

Qi Yu exclaimed in surprise, "You have a superior? So you're just a poor working-class person too."

System: 【…Please don't be hurtful.】

After a while, a system notification appeared.

Congratulations on successfully completing the "Do One Good Deed a Day" task! Your actions have been a blessing in disguise. You are awarded 5 points as encouragement!

Five points? That's so stingy! Qi Yu rolled her eyes speechlessly.

But this is good, it saves her from having to think about where to be a Good Samaritan.

In the afternoon, Qi Yu, who had taken a nap, went to the alchemy room with Gou Dan.

The alchemy room was very large. In addition to the classrooms used for teaching, there were more than a dozen small alchemy rooms for disciples to refine pills, and there were some alchemy furnaces inside.

It was almost time for class, but there weren't many disciples.

On the one hand, the entry threshold for alchemy is extremely high. It is usually easier for those with fire spirit roots to refine pills, but progress is still very slow. On the other hand, the materials required for alchemy are expensive, and ordinary people can hardly afford them. Although the Spirit Academy will provide some for its disciples, they are only basic materials, so it is not that popular.

However, none of this mattered to Qi Yu. Fire spirit root? It was already included in the Chaos spirit root. Alchemy materials? There were plenty in the system shop!

She now has 660 points, which is enough to buy some common alchemy materials!
