Meng Wan's expression remained unchanged when she heard this, she just smiled faintly.
"Thank you for your kindness, Senior Sister Xu. I'd better not bother you."
The smile on Xu Jiaojiao's face froze. She thought Meng Wan was reluctant to give up those spirit stones, and there was a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone.
"This is the rule, it's the same for everyone!
Even Brother Zhou Tong, who is good at research and business, still has to make arrangements to find a suitable job. Don't lose the big picture for the small one!"
Meng Wan kept a faint smile on her lips and spoke in a gentle tone.
"Senior Sister Xu, you misunderstood. It's not that I don't want to spend money, but I've already found a job."
Xu Jiaojiao laughed dryly. "I see. Since Junior Sister Meng has already made arrangements, that's perfect."
Having said that, Xu Jiaojiao felt a little worried.
What good job is there? Can it compare to the lucrative cafeteria?
Meng Wan observed Xu Jiaojiao's words and expressions and naturally noticed all the changes in her expression.
She didn't point it out, but simply reminded her lightly, "Senior Sister Xu, it's getting late. We should hurry to the lecture hall so we don't get late."
Xu Jiaojiao finally came to her senses and exclaimed, "Oh! I almost forgot!"
She pulled Meng Wan up and hurried out. "The instructor who taught me today is said to be notoriously strict. If you're late, you'll definitely be punished!"
The two of them jogged all the way and finally arrived at the preaching hall before the last moment the bell rang.
Xu Jiaojiao waved hurriedly to Meng Wan and rushed upstairs.
Meng Wan quickly walked into the lecture hall on the first floor and found a seat in the back row.
As soon as she sat down, a young female cultivator in a plain white Taoist robe appeared.
Her black hair is like clouds, her eyebrows and eyes are picturesque, and she exudes a cool temperament, as pure as a snow lotus on an iceberg.
Compared with the previous mentor Xuanwei, this female mentor is younger and more energetic, yet has an authority that cannot be ignored.
"You are all polite."
The female cultivator's voice was clear and melodious, refreshing like a mountain spring. "My name is Qingyi, and I will be responsible for guiding your cultivation today."
She paused, then spoke in a calm tone.
"I'm not good at preaching, but I do have plenty of practical experience. Today, I'll take you to the execution ground to replace boring sermons with actual combat exercises."
As soon as these words were spoken, a buzz of discussion suddenly broke out in the preaching hall.
Most of the disciples had excitement on their faces. After all, the opportunity to practice actual combat was rare and far more attractive than listening to those abstruse Taoist explanations.
Qingyi didn't waste any words. She raised her hand lightly, and a gentle spiritual power enveloped everyone. Then her figure flashed and she disappeared on the spot.
Everyone only felt a flash before their eyes, and they found themselves in a spacious performance field.
"Today, I will suppress my cultivation to the first level of the Golden Core."
Qingyi's voice rang out again, carrying a hint of unquestionable majesty, "Whoever can defeat me can become my disciple, worship under my name, and practice with me."
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was in an uproar.
Worship the great master Huashen as your teacher!
This is undoubtedly a huge temptation for the Jindan stage disciples present.
For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Qingyi, with a burning desire to fight in their eyes.
"Who's going first?"
After Qingyi suppressed her cultivation to the first level of the Golden Core Realm, she looked around at everyone. Her tone was indifferent, but it carried an invisible sense of oppression.
A burly male cultivator couldn't wait to jump onto the martial arts stage and said with a fist.
"Disciple Zhang Youwei, please give me some guidance, Master!"
As soon as Zhang Youwei finished speaking, he swung the huge axe in his hand and chopped towards Qingyi with the force of splitting a mountain.
The axe blade cut through the air, making a sharp whistling sound, and stirred up a gust of wind, sending sand and rocks flying.
Qingyi's expression remained unchanged, and her body was as light as a swallow as she dodged the attack by turning sideways.
The giant axe slammed heavily onto the ground, making a loud noise that shook the ground.
Before Zhang Youwei could stop, Qingyi put her slender jade fingers together like a sword and pointed at Zhang Youwei's chest.
A powerful spiritual power burst out instantly, and Zhang Youwei flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, falling heavily on the edge of the martial arts stage, spitting blood, and no longer able to fight.
Next, a pretty female cultivator holding a long whip stepped onto the martial arts stage.
The long whip in her hand was as flexible and changeable as a snake, dazzling the eyes.
Qingyi's figure was erratic, like a dragon and a phoenix, and she easily avoided the heavy whip shadows.
Then he snapped his fingers, and a stream of spiritual power hit the female cultivator's wrist. The long whip flew out of his hand, and the female cultivator was defeated.
A male cultivator holding two swords, his sword energy is powerful and extremely sharp.
Qingyi remained calm and used her palm as a knife to easily dissolve the sword energy. Then she seized the flaw and slapped the male cultivator in the chest, knocking him away.
Dozens of students in a row were defeated in just one or two moves.
Everyone couldn't help but sigh at how powerful Teacher Qingyi was. Even though her cultivation was suppressed to the first level of Jindan, no one could defeat her.
Finally, a man in a green shirt, holding a long sword, jumped onto the martial arts stage.
He fought with Qingyi for a while. His sword moves were exquisite and his attacks were fierce, forcing Qingyi to use her third move.
Qingyi nodded slightly, "Yes, what's your name?"
"Disciple Xu Tianming, greetings to the Master."
Xu Tianming saluted with his fists, feeling both excited and regretful.
Next, there were challengers one after another, but without exception, they were all quickly defeated within one or two moves.
Everyone gradually lost their enthusiasm for the challenge and felt it was boring.
"Who's next?"
Qingyi's voice rang out again. She looked around the room, but no one dared to look her in the eye.
But at this moment, Meng Wan slowly walked onto the martial arts stage and saluted Qingyi.
"Disciple asks for guidance, Master."
"Let's get started."
Qingyi said lightly.
But as she finished speaking, Meng Wan's figure disappeared from the spot, and then appeared behind her strangely.
Meng Wan's speed was astonishingly fast, like a blood-red arc of light, making it impossible to capture her trajectory.
"Blood Shadow Escape!"
In the stands, someone exclaimed, his eyes filled with disbelief.
Blood Shadow Escape is a very common escape technique, but it requires burning blood essence to perform.
Not only does it put a huge burden on the body, it may also leave sequelae.
Generally speaking, this kind of escape technique would only be used in life-or-death situations.
Meng Wan actually used Blood Shadow Escape in the competition, this is simply crazy!
Qingyi obviously did not expect Meng Wan to be so bold, but she was a powerful spirit after all, and her reaction was extremely quick.
The moment Meng Wan appeared, he turned around suddenly and slapped Meng Wan with a palm.
“Sizzle!”
A sharp sonic boom sounded, but Meng Wan's figure had disappeared from the spot. Qingyi's chapter unexpectedly failed in a rare way.
"Interesting."
Qingyi's attack missed, but she was not annoyed. Instead, she became interested.
She raised her right hand and slapped Meng Wan.
Qingyi's movements seemed slow, but they contained a mysterious rhythm and unmatched pressure.
Like a mountain pressing down on top of one's head, it crushed towards Meng Wan.
