Upon hearing this, Bai Yao was somewhat surprised. She had thought that her master would scold her, but she did not expect that her master would not say anything and would be so gentle in letting her stay.
What Xiao Yuhan actually felt sorry for was that, over the years, the disciples in the sect had at least lived in the dormitories assigned by the Discipline Hall, while this girl lived in a small thatched hut on the back mountain. Xiao Yuhan knew what kind of condition that small, dilapidated hut was, so she had thought about changing her residence before, but she forgot about it when she got busy.
However, Bai Yao now knows how to fight for herself, which makes Xiao Yuhan quite gratified. As for the rooms in this courtyard, they were originally prepared for guests and personal disciples. It's not a problem for Bai Yao to be his personal disciple. Moreover, when he was wandering outside, this girl had always been by his side, so he wasn't afraid of what others would say.
"Master...Master doesn't blame me?" Bai Yao asked in surprise.
Xiao Yuhan smiled and said, "What's wrong with blaming you? You are also my personal disciple, so what's wrong with doing a better job? If anyone questions anything, just beat them up! That's what your master said!"
At this point, Bai Yao seemed to remember something, looking as if she had done something wrong, "Master... there's something I've been keeping from you, and I've come here today to apologize."
"What bad thing did you do?" Xiao Yuhan teased with a smile.
"Yesterday, Senior Brother Li and Senior Sister Liu came to bully Yao'er again, and Yao'er beat them up. Master... if you think Yao'er did something wrong, then please give Yao'er a beating! Hmm!"
Seeing that little expression, Xiao Yuhan burst out laughing, but then he thought that as a teacher, it was inappropriate to laugh at this moment, so he immediately said, "Ahem... It's alright, I understand, but we're all fellow disciples, so we should still be careful! Don't hit too hard..."
"Ah? Master, won't you blame Yao'er?"
Xiao Yuhan thought to himself, "Do I not know the nature of those two disciples?" He immediately said, "Ahem... Of course, beating up a fellow disciple is wrong, but... how could Yao'er, who is so well-behaved and obedient, have a conflict with her senior brothers and sisters? Do you understand what I mean?"
Bai Yao, being so intelligent, could easily understand that her master was protecting his own. She immediately said, "Yao'er understands. Master means that we can hit them, but we can't admit it, right?"
Xiao Yuhan frowned. "You brat, I didn't say that. You'd better figure it out yourself! The sect's martial arts competition is about to begin. Focus more on your cultivation!"
“Master… Yao’er has already entered the Nascent Soul Realm, and almost none of my peers in the sect can rival me.”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuhan thought about it and realized it was true. Even the senior disciples who had entered the sect earlier did not have the strength of Bai Yao. The most powerful one was only close to the Nascent Soul Realm. However, she realized that her eldest disciple, Li Qianyun, was quite talented and had actually cultivated to the Nascent Soul Realm. If it weren't for his bad character, Xiao Yuhan would definitely like him.
However, what teachers value most is character. If a person's character and integrity are corrupted, no matter how capable you are, you will only be a greater scourge. Thinking of this, Xiao Yuhan smiled helplessly.
On a whim, he then looked at Bai Yao and said, "Come on! Come with me to the training ground and let's see how strong you are now!"
Bai Yao nodded obediently.
The two flew directly to the training ground of the Heavenly Sword Hall on their swords. There were many disciples around, and several senior brothers and sisters were also in the Heavenly Sword Hall discussing the sect's martial arts competition with the sect leader.
Xiao Yuhan immediately activated a barrier and looked at Bai Yao in front of him, saying, "Girl, don't hold back! I will be your opponent!"
Bai Yao thought for a moment, then summoned her immortal sword and attacked Xiao Yuhan with all her might.
"Hey! Yao'er, why did you launch a sneak attack? Your teacher wasn't ready!" Xiao Yuhan teased with a smile.
As Bai Yao drew her sword, she said, "If Master is prepared, Yao'er won't have a chance to make a move!"
Although Xiao Yuhan appeared relaxed, he was still somewhat surprised when he saw Bai Yao draw her sword. The speed and angle of her sword strike were unlike those of a child who grew up in a sect.
It seems that the training over the past two years has indeed been effective. Judging from her current strength and techniques, Bai Yao is already a qualified demon slayer. Her combat experience accumulated on the battlefield is far beyond what these children raised in swaddling clothes in the sect can compare to, not to mention that Bai Yao now has an overwhelming cultivation level.
