Upon seeing Chu Wang unharmed, Meng Ru's eyes immediately welled up with tears of overwhelming emotion.
"Chu Wang!" She disregarded what she was doing and rushed towards Chu Wang.
Chu Wang, who had landed steadily on the ground, stood still, waiting for Meng Ru to throw herself into his arms.
All eyes turned to the two of them.
The relationship between Chu Wang and Meng Ru was already common knowledge in the Yunding Sect, so it did not cause too much of a stir.
However, some students from other colleges who were still registering found it strange.
Seeing everyone staring at him, Chu Wang was somewhat displeased. It made him feel like a clown.
He immediately pulled Meng Ru, who was hugging his waist and burying her face in his chest while crying, out of his arms.
Before Meng Ru could say anything, Chu Wang dragged her all the way back to their residence.
Once they were alone, Chu Wang reached out and put his arm around Meng Ru.
"Chu Wang, where have you been all these days? You have no idea how worried I've been about you, sob sob sob." Meng Ru cried.
Tears streamed down her cheeks.
Even when a beautiful woman sheds tears, she is still beautiful.
"Alright, I'm back now," Chu Wang coaxed Meng Ru in a low voice.
"Where have you been all this time? Why haven't I heard from you at all? If it weren't for your lifespan card still being lit up, I would have thought... Waaaaah..."
As she spoke, Meng Ru started crying again.
Hearing the continuous sobs around him, Chu Wang frowned.
He's no longer the naive boy who had to compromise. Since reaching that supreme realm, Chu Wang's temper has grown considerably.
However, at this moment, Chu Wang still patiently coaxed Meng Ru a few words.
However, perhaps because she had been too worried lately, Meng Ru was feeling depressed, and her crying was like a way of venting, and she didn't stop for a while.
Chu Wang felt a surge of irritation.
He suddenly pushed Meng Ru away.
"Alright, stop crying, I'm not dead yet!"
Chu Wang's tone was very unpleasant, and his face was full of impatience.
He has things to do when he comes back, and this little bit of personal affection is not worth mentioning to him at all.
For Chu Wang, women were more often stepping stones to his advancement. But now that he has regained his memories from his past life, he no longer needs to appease these women!
Meng Ru was still talking when Chu Wang pushed her and yelled at her, and she froze instantly, her mouth slightly open, forgetting even what she wanted to say.
"Alright, I have something to do, let's talk about it later." Seeing his expression, Chu Wang softened her tone.
However, he left in a hurry after saying that.
"Chu..." Meng Ru opened her mouth as she saw Chu Wang's departing figure, about to call out to him. However, she did not expect Chu Wang to be so fast. She had only managed to utter one word when his figure had already disappeared from her sight.
Her mouth remained open for a moment before she slowly and softly uttered the word that had been lingering in her mouth: "Look..."
Meng Ru didn't understand. She and Chu Wang were fine last time, and it hadn't been that long since they last met, so why had things turned out like this?
What terrified her even more was that when she got close to Chu Wang, she couldn't discern his cultivation level.
What does this tell us?
This means that Chu Wang has already broken through to the next level in this short period of time!
————
Tang Cheng and Lin Jingge's group followed the Southern Academy's team and stopped at the gate of the Cloud Cauldron Sect.
Then they ran into the Southern Academy's arch-enemy—the Cloud Soaring Sect.
Yunxiao Sect is able to participate in the year-end competition every year, but it always loses to the Southern Academy.
And it was still just a little bit short.
This gave the people of Yunding Sect the impression that one day they would be able to defeat the Southern Academy, take over its numerous resources, and rise to the top of Yunding Continent.
Therefore, they have always regarded the South Campus as a thorn in their side.
The South Campus wasn't going to sit idly by either; being targeted like this, they naturally wouldn't just stay quiet.
The leader of the Yunxiao Sect is the Sect Master.
As the members of their sect jumped off the flying boat, they saw the people from the Southern Courtyard.
"Dean Qing, it's been a long time. How have you been?" The Grand Elder of the Cloud Soaring Sect greeted him with a smile.
His eyes weren't big to begin with, and when he smiled like that, they looked even smaller.
"Long time no see, how have you been?" Qingjian nodded to the other person and replied.
No one would actually start a conflict at a time like this.
At the entrance of the Yunding Sect, there are many people and many eyes. If you don't want to become a laughing stock, you have to endure any conflicts.
However, the people from these two places have been at odds for a long time.
Everyone present could sense the discord between the people from the two places, who were glaring at each other.
Especially those students who had participated in the competition once before had all been secretly tricked by the other side to some extent.
In this situation, it would be strange if you gave the other party a friendly look.
However, the leaders in both places were much more tolerant than these students.
They were able to have a friendly conversation.
"I see that there are more people participating in the competition this year than last year." The Grand Elder of Yunxiao Sect stroked his completely white beard, glanced behind Qingjian, and said this meaningfully.
"Could it be that Dean Qing thinks that having more people means they can win?"
He said with a smile.
Despite being mocked, Qingjian's expression didn't change; in fact, she even managed to smile at the other person, which shows that she has a very good personality.
“Elder Yun, your Cloud Soaring Sect isn’t bad either. From what I see, your numbers seem to be even greater than my Southern Academy’s.” Qing retorted without changing his expression.
The Grand Elder of Yunxiao Sect was speechless for a moment, glared at Qingjian, and then his face was full of smiles again: "Isn't this because I wanted to bring the little guys from my sect to Yunding Sect to broaden their horizons? My Yunxiao Sect is not as resourceful as your Southern Academy. We have all kinds of good things and have been to all kinds of good places."
“That’s the truth.” Old Qin, who was standing next to Qingjian, stepped forward and nodded seriously.
He couldn't hold back any longer; he just couldn't stand the other person's hypocritical demeanor.
"You..." The Grand Elder of the Cloud Soaring Sect did not expect that his humble words would be accepted by the other party. His expression changed slightly and he looked very unhappy.
At this moment, he could no longer maintain the smile on his face, and instead said something sinister.
"This year's resource allocation will definitely include a share for my Cloud Soaring Sect. Once my Cloud Cauldron Sect wins, let's see how long you can be happy!"
After saying that, he flicked his long sleeves and stormed off with his students.
"With this kind of temper, he dares to come to our South Campus to provoke us. He really doesn't know his own limitations." Old Qin sneered.
Qin Lao's words were full of vigor. The Grand Elder of Yunxiao Sect, who had only taken a few steps, paused upon hearing them, and his hands, which were hanging at his sides, suddenly clenched into fists.
"Teacher Qin," Qingjian interrupted Qin Lao helplessly.
