Chapter 210 Failure

"What!"

"He didn't even get to college!"

"Didn't you say that his third-round exam results improved dramatically and he's already on the first-tier line?"

"How come the college entrance examination score is not as high as the third examination score?!"

"Could it be that I was too nervous and had a nosebleed after drinking ginseng soup the night before the exam, which caused me to suffer from insomnia and sleeplessness the night before due to excessive nervousness, leading to my failure in the college entrance examination?"

"Or was he also having a nosebleed during the exam?"

"No, neither of them." The disciple hesitated, "This time, Lian Chengyue's math score was very low...his Chinese score was average, and his science score was okay. But his physical skills score..."

“It’s actually zero!”

The various supreme elders who were frantically trying to make up for Lian Chengyue looked at each other and finally uttered a sentence: "What?!"

How can it be zero? ?

"In order to achieve fairness in the college entrance examination, our physical examination uses the latest anonymous computer-based examination technology. Through... technology, the disciples' postures during the examination are recorded. These postures and data will be recorded on the answer sheet." The disciple was sweating, "But Lian Chengyue's answer sheet..."

"It's empty!"

"Because in the formal physical skills test, we require candidates to use a unified 2B fairy sword to answer questions. But Lian Chengyue bought a discounted fairy sword to save money. The model of that discounted fairy sword..."

"It's HB!"

This is the truth. The great elders were in a trance for a moment. Some of them were so heartbroken that they were about to faint.

"How could I make such a stupid mistake!"

There is room for maneuver in the Qingji Sect's college entrance examination. However, this operating space still has a limitation - that is the undergraduate line.

If Lian Chengyue could reach the undergraduate entrance line, the supreme elders would certainly lure him with benefits and it is not impossible that they would open a special major for him.

But Lian Chengyue...didn't even reach the undergraduate entrance line!

"Forget it. Go tell him to repeat a year. By the way, did he attend the summer camp this year?" The Grand Elder frowned and said, "Give him some help..."

The Grand Elder's disciple's brows were furrowed like centipedes again. Only someone who has been constipated for thirty days could have such an expression: "He... gave up the opportunity to go to summer camp."

All the great elders: ...

The disciple of the Grand Elder said: "The outer disciples all said that Lian Chengyue's grades were excellent, so he did not take up the summer camp quota of ordinary disciples. He is really a noble person."

"Idiot!" a supreme elder sneered.

The disciples of the Supreme Elder did not agree with this. Her slightly furrowed brows showed that she was one of the disciples who thought Lian Chengyue was a noble person: "Lian Chengyue is young, and he still has some youthful spirit... Master, Lian Chengyue is probably at the lowest point in his life right now. Should we take this opportunity to lend a helping hand so that he can be grateful for our kindness?"

"No. Let Lian Chengyue experience the feeling of being at the end of one's rope." A great elder said, "If we don't push him to the limit and let him suffer the cold shoulder, how will Lian Chengyue know whose mountain he should worship?"

"I'll leave Lian Chengyue's matter to you. The most important thing now is to find a way to fight against Mingdao Academy." Master Guanwei said, "Otherwise all the good students will be snatched away by Mingdao Academy!"

Here, we have to mention the seniority system in the Qingji Sect's blessed land.

The blessed land of Dongtian is the place with the most abundant spiritual energy in Qingji Sect. However, the blessed places are also divided into big caves, small caves and blessed places. The blessed land can be used by the current elders and peak masters of Qingji Sect to practice in seclusion. The cave heavens, including the big cave heaven and the small cave heaven, are the exclusive territories of the supreme elders.

Zhenren Guanwei is the supreme elder, but in terms of seniority, he is lower than the "Wu" generation and is considered to be of the "Guan" generation. The supreme elders active in the Elders' Council are headed by those of the "Wu" generation and mainly composed of those of the "Guan" generation. Nowadays, all the supreme elders of the "Guan" generation and most of the supreme elders of the "Wu" generation live in the small cave. The only person who can live in the Great Cave Heaven, apart from the legendary figures of a higher generation, is Wuwei Zhenren.

Ning Mingmei, Bai Ruoru and others are now elders or peak masters. When they become supreme elders, they will also have their own generation names.

Master Guan Miao narrowed his eyes and said slowly: "Since Ning Mingmei has his own academy, why can't we also set up our own large-category platform? Our Xiaodongtian can also have its own large-category platform!"

The supreme elders thought that Guan Miao had come up with a good idea, but no one was willing to unite and share the knowledge with other supreme elders - wouldn't it be the end of them to share their secret techniques with other supreme elders?

But large-scale platforms still need to be built. These supreme elders attributed the secret of Mingdao Academy's success to its "large categories" and early admissions. As for Ning Mingmei's appeal, they selectively ignored it. After several arguments, they decided to set up several "major category platforms" like mushrooms after rain - the kind that once you enter a major, it's like entering a deep ocean and you can never change your major.

This also laid the seeds for some disciples who were trapped in the big category in the future and were unable to escape or change careers.

However, at this moment, the only thing that bothered them was the fact that Ning Mingmei had to charge them a handling fee for creating their own category... The establishment of a new platform or department must be reviewed and approved by the administrative level.

"We, a group of supreme elders, were actually controlled by a junior!" someone said angrily.

But before they finished speaking, they heard a disciple come out and say, "Grand Elders, the meeting has begun."

The supreme elders entered one after another. Wu Min, who had always been accompanying the Grand Elder and smiling silently, looked in the direction of Ning Mingmei.

The beauty just twirled the brush in her hand and talked to the woman beside her. He seemed to turn a blind eye to the conspiracy of the supreme elders against him.

Wu Min lowered his head and held back a smile.

The meeting is over. This year, Mingdao Academy had a great harvest, and Piaomiao Peak also accepted two female disciples, both of whom were top-notch among their peers.

The great elders left the table one after another, looking indignant. Ning Mingmei followed Bai Ruoru out. Bai Ruoru said: "Junior Brother Mingmei, you have worked really hard these past few years."

The heroic woman now showed some signs of fatigue. Ning Mingmei thought back to the moment when Bai Ruoru had already become adept at using official language and administrative procedures to deal with some of the unreasonable demands of the Grand Elders.

To be honest, he was not very happy.

Bai Ruoru should be the princess who ran away from home from the King of the Southwest, and should be a female swordsman dressed in fluttering white. The queen taught her to be a lady and wanted her to be the king of the southwest who must not make any mistakes. However, she was gifted and wanted to be a hero who rode a horse to chase the wind and uphold justice.

She is loyal to the sect, sympathetic to the people of the six realms, and kind to Ning Mingmei, a junior brother who never greeted her in the past. She should have lived a free and upright life and become a hero of the world.

Some people are born to be heroes, not to be officials.

But now she sat in the position of the head, and learned to flatter those great elders, and did those things that she was unwilling to do in the Southwest Palace. Ning Mingmei suddenly asked, "Senior Sister, how are you doing recently?"

"Are you asking about the southwest? Fortunately, the demon world has been much more peaceful in recent years than before, and there are very few rebellions." Bai Ruoru said, "It's just that the division between them... is worth noting."

Ning Mingmei didn't originally want to ask this question. But since Bai Ruoru had answered like that, he wouldn't ask the same question again. He said: "The demon fox tribe is worth being careful of."

Speaking of which, Ning Mingmei really didn't expect that there was such a connection between the Southwestern Palace and the Fox Clan.

This is also thanks to the disciples of Piaomiao Peak's passionate research on the history of the demon world - Ning Mingmei doesn't need to contribute anyway. The reason why Ning Mingmei started his research was that both the Southwestern King's Palace and the Demon Fox Clan had the surname Bai.

As the saying goes, every coincidence increases the possibility of publishing a paper. Ning Mingmei's disciple spent three months in the library for a piece of work, and then went to the demon world to investigate in person. Finally, she found many clues behind it.

Once upon a time, a long, long time ago, the southwest was a land full of miasma, and the people there lived in misery. The demon fox clan was attacked by the spirit fox clan and the sky fox clan due to their cruel nature. They were driven out of the tribal land where they had lived for many years and drifted to the southwest. At the same time, the ancestor of the Bai family was convicted and expelled from the family and exiled here.

Both tribes were deserted by their friends and relatives. In the ongoing struggle between humans and demons, the patriarch of the demon fox clan and the ancestor of the Bai family unexpectedly fell into the same danger by chance, and escaped with the support of each other. Both of them saved each other's lives, so after discussing it, they began to become sworn brothers. They took the word "白" from Shiranuma, the place where they met, as their common surname.

But as time passed, humans and demons could no longer coexist, and their descendants eventually became mortal enemies who were unable to tolerate each other. It is now impossible to determine which of the two families initiated the split. Perhaps even Bai Ruoru herself is not clear about this.

But Ning Mingmei discovered a piece of unofficial history in the records of the demon clan.

That year, the high priest of the fox demon clan cursed the Bai family before his death. The content of the curse is that if the direct descendant of the head of the Bai family wants to inherit the Bai family's secret method completely and become the head of the Bai family, then she must kill her own blood relatives. The closer this relative is to her, the less backlash she will suffer when practicing the Bai family's secret techniques.

For example, her blood-related sister.

This matter is the secret of the Bai family. The only people in the world who know about this now are Ning Mingmei, who is doing research, the Patriarch of the Bai family, and the high priest of the demon fox clan.

An intuition told Ning Mingmei that this secret might not only be related to Bai Ruoru, but perhaps it was also related to Bai Bugui's life experience - if he didn't have such a tortuous and bizarre life experience, how could Bai Bugui have such a big halo of the protagonist? Although Bai Bugui is unable to graduate now, he is even going further and further down the path of learning minor languages ​​and purchasing goods for international students. But he has not started to falsify the items purchased on behalf of others, so there is still hope for Bai Bugui's life.

Ning Mingmei not only knew about this, but also knew that this might be a huge shock to Bai Ruoru. Therefore, he asked again: "How is Senior Brother Xiang doing recently? Is there any news from Senior Sister?"

Bai Ruoru looked at a lush sycamore tree beside her. After a long moment, she sighed, "There is no bad news..."

This was the most optimistic answer she could give.

"It's just that the fire in the north is getting more and more intense." Bai Ruoru said, "Those people in the demon world have made up their minds now."

It is better to be clear and silent. After a while, he saw other disciples coming to take Bai Ruoru back to Yunv Peak, so he asked, "Why is Ye Yufei not here?"

Ye Yufei once went to Xiangyang City with Ning Mingmei to deal with the incident of Lingfeng Sect. Now she is one of Bai Ruoru's most capable disciples. Bai Ruoru said: "I would like to invite you to come and practice for her tonight."

At this moment, Wen Siheng happened to come to Ning Mingmei. Ning Mingmei was a little caught off guard and said, "She is..."

"Ye Yufei will be heading north in a few days. She will first meet up with Senior Brother Xiang." Bai Ruoru said, "The north was once her hometown."

“…”

After bidding farewell to Bai Ruoru, Ning Mingmei and Wen Siheng returned to Piaomiao Peak together. On the way, Wen Siheng said: "Master..."

"Don't even think about it." Ning Mingmei said.

Wen Siheng: "...Master, I want to ask if you need me to cut your hair."

Ning Mingmei has been busy for two months, and now it is time to cut his hair. But he couldn't sit still in the office. Soon, he said to Wen Siheng, "Let's not cut it yet. Let's go out for a walk."

Leaving the office, what greets you is the beautiful building of Piaomiao Peak that towers into the clouds. The buildings have a solemn atmosphere, and busy disciples come and go in a hurry.

Apart from this, the twelve main peaks are safe everywhere. Qingxue Peak is bustling, Qiansheng Peak is quiet, and only Guyue Peak belonging to Xiang Wuxing is silent. Without the peak master with a loud voice, the disciples of Guyue Peak were practicing honestly under the leadership of the chief disciple.

Wen Siheng asked: "Master, where are we going?"

Ning Mingmei watched them waving the sticks for a while, and suddenly flew towards the paradise without saying a word.

It would have been better if he didn't fly. As soon as he flew, he ran into Fang Wuyu halfway. Seeing him flying over, Fang Wuyu said, "Junior Brother Ning."

Ning Mingmei: ...

"You are here to see Senior Brother Qi, right?" Fang Wuyu said with a heavy expression.

Ning Mingmei: ...

Ning Mingmei flew over the paradise. He didn't go down, but just looked down at the beautiful scenery here. There was still peace and prosperity in this paradise, and there was no sign of war.

The great cave heaven belonging to the Taoist Wuwei is also very quiet. Their mysterious master is still in seclusion.

He looked for a while, then turned around and left without going in. At this moment, Fang Wuyu beside him whispered again: "Junior brother, you have suffered a lot."

……?

Fang Wuyu: "I feel more timid as I get closer to home."

...your father.

Ning Mingmei flew to the forbidden area. Fang Wu Yu followed him and said beside him: "I know you are unhappy now. After my senior brother left, those old men didn't know how to support the Qingji Sect, and they are against you everywhere. Now that you want to go see my senior brother, I'm afraid they will use it as an excuse to make trouble... these vicious old men!"

Ning Mingmei doesn't need to say anything, Fang Wuyu will tell everything.

The forbidden area is safe. Ever since the incident twenty years ago, the Qingji Sect's forbidden area has been guarded more tightly, and no outsiders have come to steal since then. Ning Mingmei then flew towards the inner gate and the outer gate.

Fang Wuyu looked at Wen Siheng and asked him, "What happened to your master?"

Wen Siheng speculated: "I think Master is looking for something."

"Looking for something..." Fang Wuyu muttered. After a moment, his brows furrowed even deeper, and he said to Ning Mingmei, "Junior brother, you can't always live in memories."

...This guy wouldn't think that he was looking for fragments of his memories of his time with Qi Miancheng.

Ning Mingmei was too lazy to pay attention to him. He wandered around the Qingji Sect. It was very lively everywhere, as if the productivity had been developed to the extreme. Finally, Ning Mingmei found what he was looking for in Gongshan Hall.

Dozens of bounties in the mission list.

"Reward: Find the missing disciple of XX Pavilion, last seen in Okuma Township in the north."

"XX village has been attacked by demon cultivators, requesting support!"

Qingji Sect is an ivory tower that seems to be able to withstand all risks from the outside world. But Ning Mingmei knew that everything related to the struggles with the outside world was here.

Outside the Qingji Sect, the war never stopped and became more and more intense.

Ning Mingmei quietly looked at the big screen of Gongshan Hall. No one knows what he is thinking at this moment. Fang Wu Yu originally wanted to pat Ning Ming Mei's shoulder until he heard a young man's voice coming from the corner.

"As long as you complete this task, you can get 30,000. Is this true?"
