No one expected Lai Siyu to lose her temper, but Lai Siyu's words left them with no way to refute.
The disciples of Qingyun Sect were embarrassed. They originally thought that it was pointless for a loser to participate in the competition, but that was his right. It was the rule of Qingyun Sect for thousands of years. Whether you wanted him to take the exam was one thing, and whether he came to take the exam was another.
They scolded those who were insulted and obviously wanted to cause trouble for Lai Siyu. They thought, come on, if these people started fighting in front of the mountain gate, they, the disciples who were on duty, would be in trouble.
Seeing that the time was almost up, a male cultivator from the Qingyun Sect who was in the lead flipped his hand and summoned a white cloud. The cloud grew in the wind and finally stopped when it reached the size of a basketball court.
Several Qingyun Sect disciples jumped onto the white cloud first, then called on the others to go up. When everyone was up, only Erniu and Lai Siyu were left on the ground.
"Little Laizi, let's go up."
"Brother Erniu, I don't know the Light Body Technique."
Although Lai Siyu spoke quietly, the monks had extremely sensitive hearing, and her words fell clearly into everyone's ears. For a moment, the white clouds burst into laughter.
Upon hearing this, Erniu immediately blamed himself in his heart. Xiao Laizi's meridians were blocked and he couldn't use his spiritual power, so of course he couldn't perform the light body technique. He deserved to be damned for not being careful at all.
Erniu said, "I'm sorry." Then he hugged Lai Siyu around the waist and jumped onto the white cloud with a light leap.
"What a loser! He can't even do the Light Body Technique!"
"Even if she knows how to do it, she can't use it. Can't you see that she is a waste?"
"Really? You knew it wouldn't work, but you still went ahead and embarrassed yourself!"
"That's right. Qingyun Sect will definitely not let a waste like her pass the final level."
"Alas, the world of cultivation is lonely. Can't you just treat her as a joke? Can't you just treat her as adding a little fun to the lonely road of cultivation that we are about to embark on? Hahaha~"
These people talked excitedly, but Lai Siyu was not affected by them at all. She flew on the clouds for a short distance. This was the first time in her life that she had experienced flying on clouds.
The clouds are soft and look empty, but people feel no different from standing on the ground.
"Brother Erniu, look, this is so magical!" Lai Siyu jumped around on the clouds, her face full of surprise.
"Little Laizi..."
Lai Siyu saw what was bothering Erniu, so she waved her hand and said, "Brother Erniu, we can't control them because they have mouths on their bodies. If they say something nice, we'll listen. If they say something bad, just treat it as farts! Look, there are so many people here with butts growing on their faces. How interesting!"
When Erniu heard her say that, he burst out laughing, rubbed her head gently with his hand and said, "You!"
Everyone heard what Lai Siyu said, and many people burst into laughter. Those who had spoken ill of Lai Siyu were so angry that their faces flushed. But if they went out to argue with her now, wouldn't that be the same as admitting that their butt was on their face? They were sure to suffer this loss.
"Just wait and see!" those people said hatefully.
A cold gaze shot out from the crowd. Lai Siyu followed the gaze and saw that it was her old acquaintance Gongsun Fei.
If she had been a little scared when she encountered Gongsun Fei in Qingyun Town a few days ago, she wasn't afraid at all now. She even glared at him provocatively, and their gazes met in mid-air, bringing a bolt from the blue!
The white cloud passed over a mountain and finally stopped in front of Qingyun Hall, the highest peak of Qingyun Sect and the terminus of Qingyun Ladder.
The disciple in charge took Bai Yun and brought the four hundred people into the main hall. There were ten gates about three meters in diameter distributed around the main hall. The disciple in charge divided them into ten groups of forty people each and lined them up in front of the ten gates.
"Dangdang~" A deep bell sounded outside the Qingyun Hall. When the bell rang for the third time, the ten gates opened automatically, and the disciple in charge signaled the first candidate to go in.
The hall was vast and spacious, its grandeur highlighting the insignificance of humanity. For these newcomers to the world of immortal cultivation, this tactic was undoubtedly effective. The disciples awaiting the test held their breath, stood in silence, and each one stood obediently.
Lai Siyu was glad that she and Erniu were in the front of the line, and it would be her turn after the first person at the third gate finished the test.
The people who went in came out at different speeds, some came out in less than a minute, while others spent half an hour inside and still hadn't come out.
At this time, the door in front of Lai Siyu opened, and a female cultivator came out and glared at her unhappily.
You are really sick. The girl didn’t provoke you!
When Lai Siyu entered the room, she found that the room was empty, with nothing in it except the two futons in the middle.
A goose egg-sized pearl hung above the futons, emitting a soft white light that enveloped the two futons. Outside the futons was pitch black, with nothing in sight.
No matter how you look at it, it looks like a scene of torturing a suspect.
"Come and sit down." A deep baritone voice came from the darkness.
"Who?" Lai Siyu looked around, but there was no one.
"Come and sit down!"
"Where are you, senior?" Lai Siyu slowly walked towards the futon, looking around with her little head.
"Sit on the futon opposite!"
Lai Siyu was just about to sit down when a sound coming from the darkness almost scared her to death.
She obediently changed her position and sat cross-legged, patting her chest with her little hands and breathing heavily.
"Why cultivate with such audacity? Go down the mountain and find someone to marry!" A shadowy figure slowly emerged from the empty futon. This person wore a moon-white Taoist robe resembling auspicious clouds, his hair meticulously combed, and a jade crown. He had a handsome face and an air of dignity, appearing to be around forty years old. Of course, in the world of immortal cultivation, one cannot judge a person by appearance; who knows if a seemingly young man is actually a centuries-old old man.
"Senior, what you said is not right. Who hasn't been afraid? Have you never been afraid of anything?" Lai Siyu looked at the shadow opposite and saw no sign of anger, so he swallowed his saliva and continued, "If a person does not know how to be afraid, if he does not have awe in his heart, then what qualifications does he have to practice? A cultivator who does not know how to be afraid is like a person who does not know how to feel pain. People who do not know how to feel pain do not know what to do and how much strength to use to avoid getting hurt. Often, a small thing will cause them to break their arms and legs.
If you don't know how to be afraid, you won't be in awe of danger. If you encounter an enemy, you won't consider whether you can win or not, you just rush forward and fight. If the enemy is weak, it's fine, but if the enemy is strong, you will be slapped to death before you can rush forward. Is this fun?"
