"You two..., shut up!" The man in purple shouted angrily through his voice with black lines on his head, promptly interrupting Zhu Bupang and Gou Bushou, who were looking nervous.
"Boss~, we...!" Forced to stop talking, Zhu Bupang and Gou Bushou looked at the man in purple with a hint of grievance in their eyes despite their embarrassment.
"Everything must be well-founded, don't just believe hearsay!" Feng Ling explained lightly, and after calming down the two of them, he curled his lips and looked at the haggard old man.
"Why haven't I seen you before?" Ling Weiyun's clone, who was standing at the door of Yuqing Hall and in front of the lean disciple, immediately thought: "When you have free time, I'd better come and sit in the old Ghost Locking Tower!"
"Elder Xie Ling, I will definitely come to visit you in the future!" After saying this with his fists clasped, the lean disciple hurriedly retreated with the crowd.
Kuang Tu pretended to be calm on the surface, but secretly he was frightened and kept thinking wildly about what the other party was looking for.
"Senior Brother Kuang, congratulations!" The lean man, who was frowning and thinking, was wondering whether he should go or not. So much so that while he was walking completely on instinct, he failed to notice Xu Peng and others coming to fight him. Say hello.
"Uh...!?" At this time, both the person involved and the witnesses were embarrassed as they looked at the lean man who passed by several people and left a trail of slowly leaving behind.
"Junior Brother Xu, Junior Brother Kuang seems to be ignoring you!" Ye Jin chuckled. When necessary, she wouldn't mind arousing some hatred for Kuang Tu.
As long as Kuang Tu is defeated by Xu Peng, he will lose the opportunity to challenge himself!
"Ahem~!" Seeing the woman who spoke calmly covering her mouth and coughing a few times, Xu Peng, as if nothing happened, swaggered toward the familiar fellow apprentices with a few people behind him.
"Senior Brother Xu, congratulations!"
"No, it's just good luck! Junior brother, you are not bad either...!"
During this period, several people humbly accepted the congratulations and attention all the way. Compared with the former who just said nothing with a cold face, it was obviously easier for these people to leave a good impression in the hearts of these inner disciples.
"Hmph, what's the air? It's just worthless!" After returning to their original positions, Xu Peng and others, whose faces were flushed from holding back, changed from their previous graceful demeanor, and then revealed a vicious and murderous aura around them. This change of face was so fast. Gotta be scary.
"Wait! As long as we have it, we will not be far away from the day when we turn over!" Xu Peng gritted his teeth, and the other people who heard this also nodded angrily.
Although they were not convinced that the reward Na Kuang Tu received was much better than that of themselves and others, they were still very satisfied with getting this reward.
Eight-level elixir: a type of eighth-level elixir.
As the name suggests, it can improve the physical fitness of rank-7 warriors and increase the chances of being promoted to the rank-8 realm in the future! As for its use, let’s take Ye Jin and other eighth-level core disciples as the most direct analogy.
If those few people could have had such an Eighth-Revolution Pill in their hands, they would not have been stuck in the realm and stayed in the inner sect for so long (at least for a year...)
In other words, the root cause of their unstable cultivation is not a matter of qualifications or talent, but rather due to their poor physical constitution, which results in the body not being able to withstand the energy of the eighth-turn ghost spirit body for too long.
"Inner disciple, Ye Hui..."
"Inner disciple, Cheng Ye..."
"Inner disciple, Ke Wei..."
…
I don’t know how much time passed, but when all the disciples looked tired and were suffering from strong sleepiness due to the biting cold wind for countless times, the white-haired old man finally stopped speaking.
"Ha~, stop...!" Everyone couldn't help but feel refreshed. After secretly yawning, they all looked up to the entrance of Yuqing Hall in front of them in tacit agreement.
"Suddenly..., it's finally over! If I had known there were so many people, I shouldn't have come to snatch this hard work myself!"
Staring at the back of the disciple who was the last to receive the award, the white-haired old man exhaled a breath, with a trace of undisguised tiredness in his eyes.
Then, Long Yuzhong turned to the man with the purple gold crown and clasped his fists and said, "Sect Master, I have finished awarding the outstanding inner disciples in this experience according to the reward standards you set!"
"Okay, the Great Elder is busy!" He raised his eyebrows and responded lightly. The latter acted like he said he didn't dare, and Feng Tianjue didn't care about the other party's public display, and secretly gave Liu Yidao a look.
"The inner disciples' training and evaluation ceremony is completely over. Next, the core disciples' training and evaluation ceremony will be held. All the inner disciples must retreat quickly...!"
As the kind-browed old man announced in a loud voice, all the inner disciples left Yuqing Square with a look of reluctance on their faces, cleared by more than a dozen deacon disciples who were at level seven or above.
"Now, please elders and sect masters, please go and take a seat in the main hall. At the same time, all the deacons, please go to Qiaojian Peak and make sure all the core disciples are here!"
At that moment, all the elders turned around and followed the man with the purple gold crown and moved inside together. The entrance to the Yuqing Hall was suddenly clear.
"Oh~, it's like this every year...!" Among the disciples who left sadly, two young men sighed quietly to their companions beside them.
From inside and outside the hall, one can see the difference in treatment between the inner disciples and the core disciples. The difference is not even a tiny bit!
"Ah~, Luo, Luo... Elder!" Suddenly, a fearful scream came from the front, and the two disciples who had just spoken shrank their necks and suddenly covered their mouths.
"Damn it! How did you meet this evil star? He shouldn't be here at this time!"
"Oh, let's go! No matter whether we live or die, we have to get through here!"
The two disciples communicated secretly, and after they had calmed down, they had no choice but to move forward.
The two of them were simply depressed before and didn't complain too much. After all, who could let his cultivation level be less than level eight and yet fail to successfully compete for the position of deacon?
"Wine, wine~...! Drink~..." After taking a few steps forward, the two of them found an old man with a hooked nose who was drinking wine and his face was red on a big rock.
"Elder Luo, hello!" The two disciples were so frightened that they quickly greeted each other. Unexpectedly, the other party waved their hands indifferently and their words were unclear.
"Let's go quickly!" Although they noticed that something was slightly wrong with the other party today, the two disciples quickly made what they thought was the wisest choice.
——Run away with your tail between your legs!
"Boss, let's go too!" When all the inner disciples have almost left...
"Feng Ling, stay!" Just when the man in purple turned around and was about to leave, a kind-hearted figure came quickly and directly blocked the way of the three of them.
