Then I jolted awake again—how did I end up in his arms again?! What were those sticky, black things on me? Ugh, they stink!
Ji Jiuying frowned in disgust. Thinking about how she had just been lying in his arms, she couldn't help but blush, but she still smiled awkwardly at Gong Mingyue.
With a wave of his hand, Gong Mingyue instantly removed the stains from their bodies.
Ji Jiuying sighed, "This person's strength is simply enviable!"
"Silly girl." Gong Mingyue glanced at her series of expressions, his eyes filled with a hint of doting.
Ji Jiuying gradually got used to Gong Mingyue's various emotions towards her. She took a deep breath and used her slender fingers to channel her spiritual energy once again.
This time, an extremely pure spiritual energy was generated from his abdomen. He circulated the Hunyuan Scripture, which guided this spiritual energy to circulate within his body. After being condensed and compressed, it flowed into his Qi Sea and settled into his Dantian.
Ji Jiuying breathed a sigh of relief, withdrew her hand, and looked at Gong Mingyue, saying, "Can you tell me the result now?"
Gong Mingyue turned around and lay down on the bed, saying in a shameless manner, "Ninth girl, my arms are sore from holding you all night."
Ji Jiuying glared at him, knowing he was doing it on purpose.
Although tonight's events were a transaction between them, Ji Jiuying was still somewhat moved when she thought about what he had done for her, which far outweighed the transaction itself.
Thinking of this, Ji Jiuying felt troubled again. She owed him so many favors, how was she going to repay them?
She sighed softly, reached out and gently massaged his arm, looking at his exquisite profile with a helpless expression. "Your Excellency, Imperial Advisor, may I speak now?"
"Mmm~" Gong Mingyue looked like he was enjoying it.
The Imperial Advisor, however, pressed his advantage, saying, "Ninth Girl, I'm thirsty now!"
Ji Jiuying got up, poured him a glass of water, and placed it in front of him.
"Ninth Girl, my head is hurting too!"
She frowned slightly upon hearing this, indicating that she wasn't in a good mood, but she still did as she was told.
"Ninth Girl, put in some effort."
Ji Jiuying intensified her efforts.
"Just a little bit below."
Ji Jiuying's finger moved another three centimeters.
"Oh dear, too heavy, too heavy, be gentle, Jiu Yatou, are you trying to murder your husband?" Gong Mingyue ordered Ji Jiuying around like a boss.
What kind of husband is this? This guy is really pushing his luck.
Ji Jiuying stood up and said irritably, "Hey~ Gong Mingyue, let's talk this out. You are the most esteemed Grand Preceptor of Cangyue Kingdom, the most powerful being. If you go out and wave your hand, the entire capital will tremble. Aren't you being childish? Aren't you afraid of ruining your image as a male god?"
Hearing this, Gong Mingyue was in high spirits, looking as if he had just realized something. "So I'm Jiu Yatou's crush?"
"You're so shameless! Has anyone ever told you that you're narcissistic?" Ji Jiuying snorted, disagreeing with his words.
He suddenly leaned closer, and in the instant their eyes met, a smile appeared in his eyes, and he teasingly curled the corners of his mouth, "If you don't have a thick skin, how can you win over Madam?"
"..." Ji Jiuying frowned and took a step back imperceptibly.
"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore!" If I keep teasing this little wildcat, she'll get angry.
"Innate spiritual body, five spiritual roots." After saying that, Gong Mingyue's deep gaze fell on her.
Everyone says she's a good-for-nothing. If she's a good-for-nothing, then what are they?
A person with an innate spiritual body possesses five spiritual roots and all attributes. Regardless of which attribute they cultivate, the other attributes will also increase. Their cultivation speed is several times faster than that of ordinary spiritual roots, and their cultivation ability far surpasses that of ordinary spiritual roots. Even heavenly lightning will take special care of people with this spiritual root.
Ji Jiuying had these memories in her mind, and she clearly knew what they represented.
It should be noted that among the outstanding geniuses on the Cangyue Kingdom's genius list, only those with three elemental spiritual roots are truly exceptional, while she possesses all elemental spiritual roots and is also a Heavenly Spiritual Body.
Spirit Masters have never appeared in the Cangyue Kingdom, or even the entire Cangming Continent.
This result made even the usually calm Ji Jiuying unable to contain her excitement; the excitement seemed to overwhelm her entire being.
She is not a waste; she, Ji Jiuying, is a full-elemental spirit master who can crush all geniuses!
Thinking that there was someone else in the room, she took a deep breath, but Ji Jiuying's lips still turned up slightly, her dimples appearing on her cheeks as she smiled, which was quite beautiful.
Gong Mingyue looked at Ji Jiuying with even deeper doting eyes. He had really struck gold. It seemed he had to win this girl over quickly. He was already getting impatient.
"Don't be too happy yet. Cultivating with five spiritual roots is much more difficult than cultivating with ordinary spiritual roots, and the requirements for spiritual power cultivation methods are also higher."
“However, if you want to become stronger, staying within the confines of the Ji family won’t be enough,” Gong Mingyue added.
"Then where else can I go?"
Ji Jiuying wasn't worried about not finding a cultivation method for spiritual power. Considering what Lord Evil Fire had said, she figured there would be plenty of spiritual power cultivation methods in the Heavenly Punishment Manual of the Cloud Dream Butterfly Realm, so she didn't need to worry about not finding a suitable cultivation method for her.
Even if she possessed the spiritual power cultivation method, she would still need to ensure that those methods were legitimately taught; otherwise, if she inexplicably gained a set of skills, she would inevitably arouse suspicion.
"Star Academy, Tianmen Mountain, and Wuji Sect are all worth trying, but I suggest you go to Star Academy first. Star Academy will start recruiting students next month after the Genius Competition." Gong Mingyue observed Ji Jiuying's expression discreetly, afraid that she might refuse if she was unhappy.
After listening attentively to Gong Mingyue's words, Ji Jiuying asked seriously, "How many places does Star Academy have for admission?"
Five.
Five? I've only just begun cultivating, and there are at least tens of thousands of people participating in the competition. Standing out among tens of thousands of people is no easy task.
Cultivation requires real combat to solidify one's strength, and Star Academy is indeed her best choice, as it can both improve her strength and prevent others from doubting her abilities.
I remember there was a magical beast forest a hundred miles away from the capital, a small forest in the Cangyue Kingdom.
Although it is a small forest, there are thousands of magical beasts living in it.
The outer perimeter is mostly populated by low-level monsters, while the monsters become increasingly higher level the further in you go.
It is a good training ground for those who want to gain experience in the capital.
Some with lower strength choose to go to the Monster Forest to train, capture some low-level monsters, and sell their cores. Some bolder ones venture into the inner area to capture some high-level monsters to make them their spirit pets.
Ji Jiuying immediately had her own plan.
Suddenly remembering something, she picked up a calligraphy brush from her desk, her brows furrowing as she looked at it. Although she was born into an ancient martial arts family, she had never liked writing with a calligraphy brush.
"This is really killing me!" Ji Jiuying tried to pick up the brush and write a few words, but then threw the brush aside and tore up the paper she had written on.
His handwriting is as messy as an eel; even he can't stand to look at it.
