As soon as An Yirou finished speaking, the new disciple trial ended, and everyone was forcibly ejected from the magic circle.

An Zhengzheng helped An Yirou up. In this new disciple trial, eight people persevered to the final stage.

There were even two female cultivators!

Before the senior brother in charge of tallying the scores could even be surprised, he was pulled away to join four or five other senior brothers and sisters in casting spells to count the scores.

An Zhengzheng looked around and saw that everyone had been ejected and were nervously telling their teammates about what they had encountered in the final challenge.

Song Juan and Su Ying found them quickly.

"I'm sorry, Sister Zhengzheng, we didn't pass the final trial." Su Ying said softly.

They relied on the An sisters to get through the trials along the way, but in the end, they still dragged the team down.

Song Juan said somewhat embarrassedly, "The team will definitely lose points, I'm really sorry, we will definitely practice hard when we get back."

At this moment, Su Ying also nodded, they also wanted to become powerful, just like Sister Zhengzheng.

An Yirou said gently, "It's okay, you don't know your sister very well... She won't be angry or blame you."

An Zhengzheng indeed thought so, and nodded slightly.

She agreed to these two joining the team, so she could naturally accept this outcome.

“Compared to their team, we’re not bad.” An Zhengzheng raised an eyebrow at the group of male cultivators who had just provoked them.

Only one male cultivator from their side, who was practically invisible, passed the test. As for those who had spoken rudely earlier, none of them made it through.

An Yirou looked over and saw that they were all looking dejected, which made An Yirou feel very happy.

Her eyes, which had just been crying, instantly lit up. She said, "Yes, at least half of our team made it to the end."

She was just making fun of her older sister, but in reality, she can't even compare to herself. An Yirou pouted.

An Zhengzheng looked at the senior brothers and sisters who were counting the scores. Seeing that they were still busy casting spells and counting, and had no time to pay attention to this side, she walked towards the group of male cultivators.

Hearing the male cultivators chatting, they were all talking about how they hadn't overcome their inner demons.

"Hey, they're here, they're here." The dark-skinned male cultivator pointed at An Zhengzheng, and they all immediately fell silent.

An Zhengzheng walked towards them, holding the Xuan Tian Han Shi Sword.

"What are you doing here?" The male cultivator who greeted them at the beginning had just failed the test and was still annoyed.

Now that he saw An Zhengzheng coming over, he felt like he had a way to vent his anger. What was this woman doing coming up here when we were talking like grown men?

The dark-skinned male cultivator pulled him aside and whispered, "You came out late just now, and An Zhengzheng destroyed the mind magic array."

"Destroyed? Destroyed? Wasn't this the magic array made by Senior Brother Pei Jin from the Ruthless Path?"

"Yes, she can even break the magic array set up by Senior Brother Wuqing Dao..."

"Pah!" The male cultivator was actually a little flustered, but he still forced himself to say, "She herself is from the Path of Ruthlessness. Maybe she's hooked up with some senior brother again. If she wants to break her own sect's formation, wouldn't it be a piece of cake..."

At this moment, An Zhengzheng had already walked up to them and heard these words.

She drew her sword, and the sharp blade emitted a clear, resonant clang, as if preparing to sever someone's head.

People around consciously moved to the side, but couldn't help but draw their attention to this side.

They pretended to speak, but were actually listening intently.

The dark-skinned male cultivator visibly took two steps back.

Unlike the male cultivator with the folding fan, he witnessed the mental magic array shatter with his own eyes.

Even the senior brother who managed the magic array was surprised, which shows that the An Zhengzheng in front of him might really be the An Zhengzheng with outstanding appearance that was said to be on the forum.

“Fellow Daoist, today is the first time we have met. First you suspected that I won the exam by using my beauty, and now you suspect that I used my senior brother to pass the test.”

An Zhengzheng smiled and said, "I couldn't fight you during the new disciple trial formation. Now that the trial is over, I've come here in person to challenge you and prove my strength."

"Would you be willing to accept the challenge?"

An Zhengzheng smiled broadly, the corners of her mouth curving upwards more than usual, but her eyes held a cold arrogance.

She was waiting for the male cultivator to agree, as if she were waiting for an opportunity.

Waiting for an opportunity to beat someone who talks nonsense into knowing how to control their mouth.

The male cultivator never expected that An Zhengzheng would publicly challenge him to a duel!

"Aren't you bullying us?" He looked at An Zhengzheng warily. "You come from a great cultivation family, and we don't even know how powerful you are now. How dare you bully us!"

An Zhengzheng twitched the corner of her mouth and retorted, "Didn't you say that female cultivators are always inferior? You also said that I climbed up all the way by relying on male cultivators... If that's the case, then what are you afraid of being bullied?"

"I wasn't scared at all." The male cultivator looked at the crowd that had silently retreated, feeling inexplicably uneasy. Even his excuse seemed contradictory. "I... I just didn't want people to say I bullied the female cultivator..."

In all these years, there has never been a female cultivator who challenged a male cultivator to a duel!

Not a single one!

Women are mostly foolish and only care about being infatuated. Even when they issue a challenge, it is only to compete with another woman for a husband or to fight with another woman.

Men only issue challenges to their peers.

Where can you find a fight between men and women?

The male cultivator looked at the chattering crowd around him and glared at An Zhengzheng with resentment. This woman had no sense of propriety at all!

Zhou Xu, who had been watching for a long time, looked up and asked, "...Are you talking about me?"

He's always been spoiled as a genius, so he said it so casually.

The male cultivator's face turned deathly pale.

Perhaps because it was the first time he had been challenged, the male cultivator was a little nervous, and his mind started racing.

They had previously joked that these female cultivators were brought up by Zhou Xu, but it seemed that An Zhengzheng and the others were not in the same team as Zhou Xu. They had all seen Zhou Xu kill the snake.

An Zhengzheng and the others arrived later.

This shows that they really did come all the way through bloodshed... unlike Zhou Xu!

If she truly possesses such an ability, then he is doomed!

He suddenly felt a little scared and turned to look at his companions in the group. However, most of them had seen the magic circle that An Zhengzheng had torn apart, and none of them dared to make a sound.

"Have you made up your mind yet?" Song Juan and the others came over.

In front of a large crowd, the onlookers were buzzing with excitement, all waiting for the male cultivator.

The male cultivator stammered, "This...this..."

He stammered for a long time but couldn't say anything.

The senior student who had finished tallying the scores held a data sheet in his hand, which was recorded using talisman paper.

He loudly interrupted the scene, saying, "The new disciple trials are now over. The results of this year's trials will be announced."

"The champion of the trial is... An Zhengzheng from the Ruthless Path!"

These words elicited reactions from various people, including An Yirou, Song Juan, and Su Ying, as well as lamentations and reflections, and even memories of deceased friends.

A voice rang out: "I...I refuse to accept this!"
