Chapter 191 Draw for a Bye
Yun Xi wanted to hold her forehead when she saw Diandian's useless look, but since Wei Yunqing could make Diandian so greedy, she guessed that he must have gotten something good this time. To be honest, she was also a little itchy.

Yun Xi kneaded the dot in her hand while thinking of an excuse to go to Danfeng. Anyone with eyes could see the relationship between her and Wei Yunqing. If she was too proactive, it would arouse suspicion. This matter needed to be considered carefully, so she said to Dot:
"Don't worry. No matter what Wei Yunqing planted, it will only be in Danfeng. After the competition is over, I will find an excuse to take you to Danfeng to have a look."

"Okay, master."

After getting the promise from his master, Diandian's mood instantly improved and he stopped drooling. After being put down by Yunxi, he went to Feixia to communicate.

Because he had to participate in the first round of the competition tomorrow, Yun Xi continued to practice as planned and went to Doufa Peak early the next morning.

Yun Xi arrived neither early nor late, wearing the newly purchased white robe with green patterns and matching white boots with green patterns. Her long black hair was half-tied up with the green bamboo hairpin, and her earrings were replaced with matching white jade pendants. On her wrist was the storage jade bracelet given by her master, and around her waist hung a jade identity card. She looked refreshing and neat.

However, her slightly childish face still made her the focus among the Jindan Zhenren, especially when some people discovered that her bone age was no more than sixteen years old, they became even more curious about her.

Elder Yu Yang of Fafeng had some impression of Yun Xi. He turned to Danyang Zhenren beside him and said:

"Danyang, that girl was the disciple you favored during the initial entrance examination. Why didn't you accept her as your disciple? Instead, she became someone else's?"

Danyang Zhenren said with a smile:

"Don't you even consider the little girl's cultivation level? What can I teach her? But I have my eye on her cousin, Zong Hao, who has some talent in alchemy. If he performs well in this competition, I will take him in as my personal disciple."

"I remember that the Wei family had a female disciple with dual spiritual roots at that time. She also seemed to have gone to Danfeng. How is she now?"

When Wei Yunqing was mentioned, Danyang Zhenren lowered his eyes imperceptibly and said:
"That girl is now the Peak Master's registered disciple. She's quite skilled in cultivating high-level spiritual plants, and she also wants to officially become his disciple through this competition. I just don't know if she can achieve her wish."

"That girl's talent is indeed good, but her mentality is just... Never mind, your cultivation and mine are limited, and she may not look down on us. It's better to leave this troublesome disciple to Yuanying Zhenjun for guidance!"

Yu Yang is not so obsessed with accepting disciples.

While the two of them were talking in low voices, the participating Jindan cultivators had already surrounded Yun Xi. Everyone wanted to get to know this well-behaved little sister.

Yun Xi didn't hesitate and bowed, smiling before speaking. With her almond-shaped eyes curved, she said:

"My name is Wei Yunxi. I'm a disciple of True Monarch Yu Ling of Ling Xuefeng. By chance, I was able to advance to the Golden Core stage. I'm participating in the sect competition this time mainly to gain some experience and learn from you, my senior brothers and sisters. Please feel free to give me some advice."

Yun Xi's words were polite, and her deceptive age and childish face made all the Jindan cultivators let down their guard. They exchanged communication jade slips in a friendly manner and had a brief conversation.

"Junior Sister Wei, do you recognize Master Wei Chenyin from Fafeng?"

Someone asked curiously.

"Chen Yin is Yun Xi's elder. In the family, I have to call him ancestor."

The Jindan male cultivator nodded in understanding and said:

"I see. I was wondering if your styles of doing things were similar. You usually keep a low profile, but you always manage to make a splash."

Yun Xi chuckled but did not respond. She also felt that she and Ancestor Chen Yin got along very well. Putting aside their seniority, he was a sincere person who dared to resist injustice and break free from constraints, which she admired very much.

As Yun Xi conversed with the other Jindan True Immortals, Sheng Yuhong watched from a distance. He felt a deep sense of loss, as if the glamorous and beautiful girl should have been by his side, but now she had left him far behind. He was also amazed at Yun Xi's luck. She had only returned from a single trip to the clan, and upon her return, she had already become a Jindan True Immortal. She had also indirectly disrupted the evil cultivator's deployment in the mortal world. This was unknown to the other disciples in the sect, but as the sect leader's eldest disciple, he was well aware of it.

Qingzhu Zhenjun of Baihua Tower also came to Haoran Sect in person. He was responsible for the reception throughout the whole process and knew the whole story. However, the junior sister kept a low profile and accepted the self-defense magic weapon given by Qingzhu Zhenjun, and then pushed the credit to the disciples of Baihua Tower.

True Lord Qingzhu came to Haoran Sect specifically, not only to point out Yun Xi's merits, but also to unite the sect with the cultivation families and the loose cultivator alliance, and send cultivators to the mortal world to monitor the situation there and prevent evil cultivators from destroying the peace of the mortal world. The first batch of disciples had already entered the mortal world before the competition, and Yun Xi had not returned to the sect at that time.

He had wanted to visit Yun Xi after she came back, but she didn't return to the sect until half a day before the competition. After she came back, she went to Lingxue Peak and then met with the Wei family disciples, so he had no chance to communicate with her.

When he learned that Yun Xi had signed up for the Jindan stage competition, he felt that the other party was reckless, so he waited here early in the morning, wanting to remind Yun Xi, but he has not stepped forward until now.

Yun Xi had already noticed Sheng Yuhong, but she had no intention of talking to him.

When the time came, all the Jindan cultivators began the first round of drawing lots and had two-on-two duels. There were 121 Jindan True Immortals participating in the competition, so there was a bye in the first round.

Yun Xi randomly drew lots behind a Jindan female cultivator, but luckily drew a bye lot and directly advanced to the second round of the competition.

Wei Zonghao said to Zong Yu beside him:
"Yun Xi is so lucky, she actually got a bye."

Zong Yu doesn't think so:

"The first round of competition is just a warm-up for the Jindan Zhenren. Only by competing on stage can Yun Xi gain experience."

Zong Jin on the side said:
"Whoever brings out his best skills in the first match will make the second and third rounds even more exciting."

Yun Ting and Yun Ying also agreed with Zong Jin's statement, and Zong Han added:

"If Yun Xi doesn't participate in the competition, she can watch others compete. It's good to know both herself and her opponent."

Yun Xi had the same idea as Zong Han. She also planned to watch the game to understand the strength of her opponent.

Because she came back too late, she didn't have time to collect information about the participating Jindan Zhenren, so this competition depends entirely on her performance on the spot. She originally thought that she would be eliminated in the first round and had made plans to focus on participating, but she didn't expect to be given a bye and enter the second round. So she has to prepare well.

Just as Yun Xi was choosing the arena to watch, Sheng Yuhong came over and politely bowed and said:

"Senior Sister Wei, how are you?"

Yun Xi also responded politely:

"Junior Brother Sheng, you're too polite. I see that your aura is about to break through soon."

She was telling the truth. Sheng Yuhong's current cultivation level was at the peak of the late foundation building stage, and he was only one step away from breaking through and becoming a pill.

Sheng Yuhong said with a resentful look:

"I'm still a step behind Senior Sister."
