【A cowardly female lead who loves to lie flat × A seemingly well-behaved and loyal male lead】
Qin Baoyao had a dream. In the dream, because of her spirit root, her parents and brother died, a...
Shi Yue was beaten?
Qin Baoyao ran around like a monkey, and every time she would lie on the wall to peek. At first, everyone thought she was just watching the fun, but after a few times, especially the team leader, they found that she had a sharper view of the problem than themselves.
Because there are restrictions on the type of cultivators, the number of people, and the level of cultivation when forming a team, and since this is the first team assessment, no one knows what the assessment will specifically be about. So when everyone formed a team, those in the Qi Refining Stage chose those who were weak in strength and looked the same as him.
For example, Qin Baoyao noticed that most of the teams, while those in the Qi Refining Stage, chose Formation Cultivators, Talisman Cultivators, and Music Cultivators, while those in the Golden Core Stage were mostly Sword Cultivators, Knife Cultivators, Weapon Cultivators, or Medical Cultivators. She turned around and asked the person who had come to look for someone but had been dragged along by her to lean over the wall to peek, "Senior Sister Zaixue, what do you think?"
Zai Xue, one of the direct disciples of the headmaster of the teaching hall, ranked sixth in the personal assessment of Fu Xiu and was the captain of the teaching hall team.
Qin Baoyao didn't know how she ended up at Senior Brother Qixiu's door, but that didn't stop her from pulling him over to lie on the wall together.
"Well...these weapon cultivators really have a lot of magic weapons!" Zai Xue looked at the number one weapon cultivator distributing magic weapons to the people in the team and sighed with envy!
"Hmm~" Qin Baoyao was silent for a moment, then thought for a moment and said, "Probably not as much as I have."
Zai Xue looked up at the sky speechlessly: In the entire Guiyi Sect, who can have as many resources as you, the little ancestor?
Qin Baoyao was still watching the people in the yard carefully, but she didn't know that she was discovered every time she just got outside the yard. She didn't even think about why she could climb the wall smoothly every time and watch for so long.
The person who was distributing magic tools in the yard had distributed half of them when he suddenly collected the rest and asked those who had received the magic tools to put their things away as well.
Those who didn't get anything looked at him in confusion. He shook his head slightly, indicating that someone else was coming.
It was the first time that Qin Baoyao saw that Brother Weapon Cultivator only gave out gifts to a certain group of people, and specifically to sword cultivators and knife cultivators. She was so angry that she couldn't help but jump down: "Brother, how can you be so partial? Why didn't the others get any?"
Zai Xue, who was already feeling guilty for peeping over someone else's yard wall, was about to leave and come back to look for the person later. However, she was frightened by Qin Baoyao's next move and fell down. Fortunately, she fell outside the yard, so she immediately stood up and ran away.
Qin Baoyao, who thought her senior sister would come in with her, turned around and found that she was gone. She was confused for a moment: Where is senior sister Zaixue?
When the people in the yard heard a sound, they realized how cautious the senior brother was. Sure enough, in addition to Senior Sister/Junior Sister Baoyao, there were other people peeping. Fortunately, the senior brother discovered it quickly.
After discovering that the other person had left, the man saw Qin Baoyao, who was furious and indignant, and took out the things he had put away and continued to distribute them.
Qin Baoyao smiled awkwardly when she saw this scene: "So it was my misunderstanding. I'm so sorry." Then she prepared to leave.
But someone grabbed her collar from behind and said, "Tell me, Junior Sister, where am I biased?"
Qin Baoyao, who was caught, shook her head quickly: "Senior brother is not partial, not at all." She muttered in her heart: Who told you to keep half of the things you distributed? Other senior brothers who practiced weapon cultivation distributed things to everyone.
After hearing her words, the man let her go, patted her head and said, "Okay, I was just kidding you, go play somewhere else."
After Qin Baoyao was released, she didn't leave. She was in a hurry to leave because she was afraid that her senior brother would come to settle the score with her. Now that her senior brother didn't seem angry, it was her turn to speak.
"Brother, this time it's a teamwork assessment, but I just saw why they didn't participate in the action?" She raised her hand and pointed at the disciples who were arranged to stay aside.
"Their cultivation base is relatively low, so they won't be able to help much when the time comes. The best strategy is to let them hide." The man said. In fact, after the requirements for the assessment team were announced, those who were qualified to be team leaders didn't understand why such a complicated team formation didn't make much sense. After all, some cultivators themselves couldn't play a big role, not to mention that they were only in the Qi Refining Stage.
Even a disciple at the peak of Qi Refining is no match for a disciple who has just established his foundation, so when they form a team, those with higher cultivation bases are given priority for fighting.
When the rules first came out, the Jianfeng disciples protested that they were unfair to the sword cultivators. But in fact, after the teams were formed, the sword cultivators had the most people participating in the team assessment. Except for the three teams with sword cultivators as captains, which had only one sword cultivator disciple, the rest of the teams basically had two sword cultivator disciples. It can be said that the sword cultivators became the popular candidates for team formation.
After running around for most of the day and peeking over the wall, Qin Baoyao also realized this. It seemed that she had to find her brother and twelfth uncle to discuss countermeasures.
She ran back to Yu Ying's yard, ready to see how Shi Yue was doing.
"Senior sister, senior sister, I'm here to pick someone up!" This time she didn't climb over the wall, but walked in openly through the main gate.
As a result, Shi Yue was found with injuries all over his body, standing not far away and watching others cooperate in the practice.
"What's wrong with you?" She rushed over and took out a pill from her storage ring and stuffed it into Shi Yue's pocket. "Take the pill quickly!"
Yu Ying told everyone to call it a day and let everyone else leave. After seeing off the last person, she walked over to Qin Baoyao and said, "Junior Sister, Junior Brother Shi Yue's strength is average and he's disobedient. We can only choose to ban him from participating. Please persuade him not to drag everyone down during the formal assessment."
Um? ? ! ! !
Hmmmm???
Shi Yue is disobedient, so why don't you let him take action?
That's not right. How could he be weak when he is only at the third level of Qi Refining and ranked fifth among the disciples in the Qi Refining stage of Sword Cultivation?
In Senior Sister Yu Ying's team, he should be the most capable fighter in the Qi Refining Stage.
I was only away for a few hours, how come it suddenly became like this?
She looked at her senior sister, then at Shi Yue: "What happened? Tell me about it?"
"My team only has one spot left for a sword cultivator because of him. I finally persuaded the sixth person in the sword cultivator group to team up with me. When we work together as a group, we should focus on people like them who are strong and capable of fighting." Yu Ying said angrily. If Qin Baoyao hadn't asked her, she would never have considered looking for a sword cultivator in the Qi Refining stage. Fortunately, the other people she recruited were all relatively strong. Although it was a bit difficult to take on an extra weak person, it was not impossible. However, they should know their own limitations and not cause trouble.
"Junior Brother Shi Yue not only wants to be the main output of the team, but also wants to cooperate with Fu Xiu and Le Xiu. It's enough for them to protect themselves. Why are they causing trouble? He also angered another sword cultivator in the team, and the two had a fight. With Junior Brother Shi Yue's strength, he deserves to be beaten, so he became what you see." Yu Yingsheng is a medical cultivator. She also admires the strong and hopes that there will be people who can fight in the team. Anyway, her pills are enough for everyone. If the master hadn't said to let as many medical practitioners as possible take the test, she even thought that the team only needed her as a medical cultivator.
After hearing her words, Qin Baoyao looked at Shi Yue again: "What about you? What do you say?"
Shi Yue looked at her in disbelief, thinking that she would stand on the other person's side.
"Why are you looking at me? Just say whatever you want to say." Qin Baoyao patted him. It was so embarrassing that my people were bullied by others. I didn't expect that even my senior sister didn't understand everyone's good intentions.
"I just think that since it's a team effort, everyone should contribute, rather than some people just being there for show." As someone who had attended the teaching hall meeting, Shi Yue knew the general direction of this assessment early on.
He knew that he, a sword cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage, had taken up an assessment spot, and the team would be missing a sword cultivator with high cultivation level, which was indeed a disadvantage for his team. However, he also thought that the people in the Qi Refining Stage in other teams were probably cultivators who could not fight, so he wanted to cooperate with others in the battle and put in more effort to play his role as a sword cultivator as much as possible.
It’s a pity that Fu Xiu and Le Xiu’s disciples are willing to cooperate with him, but the others don’t want them to take action.
After listening to this, Qin Baoyao looked at Yu Ying and said, "Senior Sister, I think he is right. Since it is a team effort, naturally everyone has to contribute."
After a pause, she stood up for Shi Yue again: "How can you allow another sword cultivator to bully him just because Shi Yue is in the Qi Refining Stage?"
"No...it's not bullying. They both know how to spar with each other." Yu Ying said this with a guilty conscience. After all, one is a Qi Refining and the other is a Golden Core. No matter how you look at it, they are both bullying the weak.
"Heh...heh..." Qin Baoyao laughed in anger, "A competition between a Jindan stage and a Qi refining stage? How can you say that, Senior Sister?"
"Let's go," Qin Baoyao pulled Shi Yue's arm, "I'll take you to find someone else to form a team with! You won't be on my team anymore!"
She angrily led everyone to the classroom, slammed the table and said, "Change teams! I want to change his team!"
The disciples who were waiting for someone to sign up looked at her in embarrassment after hearing this: "Junior Sister Baoyao, we can't change. We have already successfully signed up for a team and can only withdraw. We can't change."
Shi Yue didn't expect that he was dragged to the teaching classroom while he was distracted, and heard her angrily say that she wanted to change his team.
"Brother, it's okay. Senior Sister Baoyao was just joking. Don't mind her. Just go about your business." He apologized to her, then grabbed Qin Baoyao's wrist and led her out.
"Sister, calm down, I haven't suffered any loss."
"Hasn't this caused any harm?" Qin Baoyao widened her eyes, looking up and down at his tattered clothes with wounds visible everywhere, and felt speechless.
"Senior Brother Li still has some sense and didn't kill me. He just wanted to intimidate me and stop me from speaking carelessly." Shi Yue continued, "If Senior Sister is really angry, I won't participate in the team assessment. Anyway, Senior Brother from the Teaching Hall just said I can withdraw."
"No, you have to go!" Qin Baoyao subconsciously objected when she heard this.
Because Shi Yue was an outer disciple and had spiritual roots, he rarely had the opportunity to team up with anyone except Jiang Fa, who had a good relationship with him. Although his spiritual roots were ordinary, his strength was obviously not bad, so there was no chance for others to discover his true strength.
The idea of letting him participate this time was to let people know that he is only at the third level of Qi Refining but has extraordinary strength. How could he not participate!
