Junior Sister is too competitive, she drastically alters the Joyful Union Sect.

Chapter 53 What are they after?

Shen Youqing's question directly hit Zhang Youli's weakness.

Zhang Youli, whose short handle was being held, was at a loss for words to refute Shen Youqing. He felt a lump in his throat and a feeling of unease stuck in his chest.

Looking at the aloof and proud Shen Youqing, Meng Qinian felt somewhat complicated.

Such a bright and outstanding young woman, if she came to the Qingyu Sect, I'm afraid her edges would be worn down.

"I have nothing to refute about your poor posture, but how can you say that you're wasting your talent?" Shen Youqing questioned again.

"Which of my senior brothers and sisters isn't above the Golden Core stage? As for me, I haven't fallen behind by much, have I?" Shen Youqing retorted coldly.

Xu Xingzhi looked at Shen Youqing, who exuded a sharp and piercing aura, and felt a strange sense of relief on his face.

That's good for Xiao Youqing; that way she won't be bullied.

"Isn't the senior brother of the Azure Jade Sect at the late Golden Core stage? We have the same cultivation level, so why am I considered to be wasting my talent? It's so unfair." After saying this, Liang Shimu felt a sense of relief.

Shen Youqing glanced at his senior brother and really wanted to give him a thumbs up.

Seeing Shen Youqing's admiring gaze, Liang Shimu raised an eyebrow at her, as if to say, "See, Senior Brother isn't bad either."

"Or are we going down the wrong path? Committing all sorts of evil deeds?" Shen Youqing frowned and asked coldly, "We are neither evil people nor have we harmed anyone, so why do you say we are wasting our talents?"

Lin Jinyao looked at the tiny Shen Youqing, her eyes revealing a complex and surprised expression.

The junior sister looks aloof and arrogant, seemingly not good with words, but who would have thought she's so eloquent!
"Don't talk about disobeying your teachers. We're just asking questions. Isn't the role of teachers to answer their students' questions?"

Shen Youqing's words effectively shut down Zhang Youli.

This was the first time Meng Qinian had ever seen such a talkative young girl; she was simply relentless in her pursuit of the truth.

The veins on Zhang Youli's forehead were quite prominent. He took two deep breaths, barely calmed himself down, and said coldly, "Did I say yesterday that I would go to school for morning classes at 5 a.m.?"

"Did we agree?" Lin Youran's gentle voice was like a ball of cotton.

This clump of cotton made Zhang Youli feel depressed and suffocated.

The shy Yang Yousheng and the taciturn Xiao Ke stood aside and watched.

The two of them shouldn't go up there and embarrass themselves. Let the senior brothers, sisters, and junior sisters dominate the battlefield!

"If we can't get up today, we'll never get up in the future," Lin Jinyao said decisively. "Don't try to blackmail us with whether or not we can go to the Sword Tomb. We'll just not go! Besides, this isn't the Azure Dragon Sword Sect."

Liang Shimu's deep, hoarse voice rang out, "We mainly practice dual cultivation. At that time of Mao Shi (5-7 AM), we can't expect to get up halfway through our cultivation, can we?"

Lin Youran immediately retorted, "That's just too inhuman. Don't they know that disturbing someone's dual cultivation will be struck by lightning?"

……

Looking at Zhang Youli's pale face, Xu Xingzhi wondered whether he should give him two quick-acting heart pills.

"Early morning classes are impossible." Shen Youqing waved his hand, his tone firm. "I have my own cultivation plan, and disrupting it will cause me to suffer a qi deviation!"

You seem to have gone mad!

Zhang Youli wanted to curse, but the sect leader's airs prevented him from doing so, so he could only suppress his anger.

Troublemaker!

They're all troublemakers!!

“Sect Master Zhang, after listening for a while, I understand now. The Joyful Union Sect is indeed different from other sects. If we followed the rules of the Azure Jade Sect, these little brats would never have time to cultivate,” Xu Xingzhi said earnestly.

Then, Xu Xingzhi changed the subject and said, "However, they are indeed undisciplined, so we can increase the difficulty for them a little."

Hehuan clan members: ?
True Elder?

Xu Xingzhi smiled gently at the few brats, looking rather gloating.

Zhang Youli glanced at his protégé, who had been smug one second and looked dejected the next, and said coldly, "Of course." He refused to believe that he couldn't teach this bunch of troublemakers well!
Meng Qinian spoke up at the opportune moment, suggesting, "Sect Master, each sect is different, and the cultivation methods passed down in each sect should probably also change."

Zhang Youli responded, his face cold and serious.

"Since you can't get up, then we'll practice this afternoon." After saying that, Zhang Youli, having learned his lesson, asked, "Is everything alright?"

Xu Xingzhi glanced at the group, telling them to know when to stop.

"When do we cultivate in the afternoon? Where do we cultivate? How do we cultivate? How long do we cultivate each day? Will there be any extra training sessions? Apart from the fixed cultivation time, can we arrange our own time?"

As cautious as Shen Youqing is, he immediately launched into a series of questions.

It wasn't that Shen Youqing was cautious; it was just that in her previous life, she was a direct disciple of the Qingyu Sect, and she knew the Qingyu Sect all too well.

Xu Xingzhi glanced at Zhang Youli's expression and was ready to save this little brat at any moment.

Meng Qinian looked at Zhang Youli with a hint of pity in his eyes.

This is only the first day. There are still more than 700 days to go. Sect Master, please take good care of yourself.

"From 11 PM to 3 PM, there are three fixed hours each day: one hour for lectures, one hour for cultivation, and one hour for combat. There will be no extra cultivation time. The cultivation location is all on the Second Precept Peak. You can arrange the rest of the time freely, but you must not violate the rules of the Qingyu Sect."

Zhang Youli was indeed willing to answer any question.

Upon hearing this, Shen Youqing turned to look at her senior brothers and sisters.

Xu Xingzhi raised his hand and flicked Shen Youqing on the forehead, his gentle tone full of helplessness, "What? Still trying to ask for an exorbitant amount?"

Shen Youqing tilted his head, about to speak, when Shen Quelin covered his mouth.

She shouldn't say anything more, or even Elder Xu might not be able to save her.

Liang Shimu thought for a moment, then nodded to indicate that he could, and the others had no objections either.

“Alright.” Liang Shimu bowed to Zhang Youli. “Thank you for your understanding, Your Majesty.”

I'll show you no consideration whatsoever!

Can't we just beat all these protégés up?!
Zhang Youli turned his head to look at Xu Xingzhi to the side.

Xu Xingzhi waved his hand and said in a cheerful and magnanimous manner, "I am familiar with the rules of the Qingyu Sect. Those who should be punished should be punished without hesitation."

Sect Leader Zhang has already made a significant concession; it would be inappropriate for him not to express his stance.

Moreover, while the Qingyu Sect is indeed strict, it is impossible to say that they mistreat their disciples.

Zhang Youli responded, turned around and said a few words to Meng Qinian before turning and leaving.

Meng Qinian said a few words and then saw Xu Xingzhi off.

Watching the teachers leave, Lin Youran raised her hand to her forehead, "No, we've been so arrogant and domineering, why isn't the Qingyu Sect sending us away?"

She doesn't understand!

"I don't understand either." Liang Shimu couldn't help but sigh. "What are they after? That we talk back? That we annoy them?"

Lin Jinyao shook her head. "Elder Xu is also very strange. He's so protective of his own, yet he didn't offer to take us back. I don't understand."

Too lazy to think about these things, Shen Youqing had already taken out a meat bun and was munching on it.

Xiao Ke walked up and took a steamed bun from Shen Youqing's hand, eating it.

When Liang Shimu and the others finished talking, they turned around and saw Shen Quelin and his sister and Xiao Ke standing there eating steamed buns.

"You didn't invite us to eat? That's so unfair!" Lin Youran rushed over in a few steps. "Junior Sister, you can't be biased!"

Before the group could even start dividing the buns, several direct disciples of the Qingyu Sect and disciples from the Punishment Hall arrived.

"After the punishment is handed down in the Hall of Punishment, those who skip class without cause will each be sent to the training ground to practice their swords five thousand times." Jiang Chenying, the senior disciple of the Qingyu Sect, spoke in a cold and ruthless voice.
