Chapter 60 "You better not lose, or I'll be very disappointed!"
"Hurry, hurry, hurry! We need to get a good spot today!" Many people on the street were walking quickly towards the main stadium.
Mingcang continued his usual rambling, constantly offering them platitudes along the way, which only made everyone's already relaxed mood more tense.
As soon as Ye Luo entered the venue, he felt the enthusiastic atmosphere. Many people waved and shouted encouragement. However, after looking around, Ye Luo realized that these people were not there for them, but for the disciples of the Huan Yin Sect who were not far away from them.
"Fairy Ji Xuan, look at me! Look at me!"
"Go, Fairy Whisper! I love you!!"
"Young Master Qingyu is looking this way! Ahhh, my heart is beating so fast!"
...
"Holy crap, what's going on?" Ye Luo was speechless as he watched the young men and women in the stands excitedly shouting. The scene was truly comparable to a fan meeting.
"Outrageous..."
Although Ye Luo was secretly complaining, she had to admit that the disciples of the Illusionary Sound Sect were all incredibly handsome and dashing, and the female disciples were stunningly beautiful and had an otherworldly aura. She couldn't help but mutter to herself, "Does this sect recruit people based on their looks?"
"Yes, that's right!"
Xiao Huan wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth and continued, "The sect leader of the Huanyin Sect is said to be a female cultivator. She has set a set of standards for accepting disciples. Basically, if anyone does not meet even one of the conditions, the Huanyin Sect will not accept them!"
What standards?
"For example, being fat, short, having small eyes, a short nose, an upturned nose, a low nose bridge, a big mouth, thick lips, no chin, protruding ears, a short forehead...etc."
"...Wait a minute?"
Ye Luo was speechless. It turned out that this female sect leader was an ultimate beauty enthusiast, even emperors would have to admit defeat when choosing concubines.
Suddenly, even louder cheers rang out. Bai Ruoqian and Yu Xuan entered the arena at the same time, followed by many more people. By then, all the participating sects had arrived.
Bai Ruoqian: "Senior Brother Yuxuan, our seats have been arranged together, let's hurry over!"
"Hmm." Yu Xuan glanced at the arena and saw Yu Qianling yawning, leaning against a wall and dozing off.
"This time I will definitely defeat you!"
"Hmm?" Yu Qianling seemed to sense his gaze, looked up and saw Yu Xuan looking at her. She waved at him and called out, "You better not lose, or I'll be very disappointed!"
"..."
Yu Xuan's face darkened, and he said, "You should worry about yourself!" After saying that, he walked towards the waiting area.
Seeing the tense atmosphere between the two, Bai Ruoqian felt secretly pleased, "Since that's the case, it saves me some trouble."
She strode forward and took Yu Xuan's hand, saying, "Senior Brother Yu Xuan, you must defeat that arrogant woman!"
“Of course.” Yu Xuan turned his head, his brows furrowed, and subtly brushed her hand away, saying, “It seems your senior brothers are all looking for you. You should go first, as the rookie group competition will start later.”
Bai Ruoqian naturally understood his meaning. Suppressing her anger, she forced a sweet smile and said, "Alright, I'll head back now. Senior Brother Yuxuan... you must watch my match!"
"Um……"
As Bai Ruoqian walked along, she cursed inwardly. Xin Hun Yin seemed unable to bear it any longer and sighed, "After all this time, your mentality is still so restless. How will you control the situation in the future?"
"But for some reason, Yu Xuan is completely unresponsive. Every time I try to reason with him, he just ignores me. It's infuriating!"
Wherever she goes now, she's the center of attention, with people fawning over her. She's already suffered enough humiliation these past few days!
Heart and Soul Guide: "Alright! Focus on the competition first. I'll teach you superior seductive arts when we have time. Winning him over will be a piece of cake, won't it?"
"Junior Sister!" Su Yuyuan rushed up to her, anxiously asking, "Where have you been? Master is looking for you!"
"Okay, I understand."
The top eight sects have their own spectator seats. Ye Luo took a look and found that the tea, pastries and other services were indeed a step up. In this world where the strong are respected, becoming stronger is the only way to survive.
Suddenly, a cultivator in plain clothes walked over, cupped his fists towards Ming Cang, and said, "Sect Leader Ming, Alliance Leader, please take a seat!"
Ming Cang then realized what was happening, stood up, straightened his clothes, coughed lightly, and said, "I'm going now. You all must do your best in the competition."
"Master understands!"
Ming Cang nodded with satisfaction. What he used to hate most was the scheming and empty pleasantries with those old guys, but this year was different...
Thinking of this, he smiled, put his hands behind his back, and walked towards the main viewing platform.
"Old Ming, you're here! You're still as energetic as ever!" Mu Tai stood up to greet him.
Ming Cang laughed and said, "Old Mu, you're not bad either. Your cultivation has improved quite a bit!"
"No, no, come, come, have a seat!"
At this moment, the leaders of the other sects looked at Ming Cang with disdain in their hearts, but they still exchanged a few pleasantries with him. However, the Tianfeng Sect was naturally not among them.
Fu Zhenghan, holding a teacup, sat down in his chair, took a sip, and said, "I didn't expect Peach Blossom Valley to be so lucky this year."
Such words were clearly provocative, and Ming Cang's face darkened. These were the results of the children's hard work, so how could others be allowed to casually belittle and question them?
Just as he was about to retort, a teasing female voice rang out: "It's so sour, Lao Mu, did you pick these hawthorns from a lemon tree?"
The female leader of the Huanyin Sect spat a few times, threw the hawthorn cake in her hand on the table, and leaned back in her chair with a half-smile.
Fu Zhenghan glared at her, his face turning grim and menacing. Shangguan Lin, trying to smooth things over, chuckled, "You woman, it's one thing to be picky about choosing disciples, but how can you be so picky about even a simple pastry? Come on, bring me something sweet!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the giant crystal tablet floating on the field flashed with golden light, and the scores of the top ten sects displayed on it changed:
Peach Blossom Valley: 40 points.
Tianfeng Sect: 36 points.
Wan Jian Sect: 36 points.
Huan Yin Men: 36 points.
Zhan Zong: 32 points.
Xuanwu Palace: 24 points.
Beast Taming Sect: 20 points.
Qingyue Gate: 20 points.
Huanhua Sect: 20 points.
Thousand Medicine Island: 10/10
...
Fu Zhenghan, who was already in a bad mood, looked up at the sect points on the crystal tablet and his face immediately turned even uglier.
Mu Tai laughed and said, "Oh, not bad, not bad at all! Ming Cang, you really know how to teach people well!"
Ming Cang glanced at Fu Zhenghan and laughed loudly, "Hahaha, that's for sure! All the disciples I've taken in are geniuses, especially my newest disciple, who is the most outstanding among them!"
Fu Zhenghan scoffed, "Does Sect Leader Ming have a lot of confidence in him?"
"Of course."
"It's a pity that he is no match for Qian'er. Your defeat is inevitable."
"Let's wait and see."
