Xiuxian: I use magnetic fields to prove my truth

Chapter 203 School Admission Season

Zhou Qing descended Qingyun Mountain and headed straight for Ziyun Mountain.

As soon as he reached the foot of Ziyun Mountain, he saw five young cultivators coming down from the mountain.

These five young cultivators, two women and three men, were all dressed in the attire of Qingyun Sect disciples.

Judging from the formation of the five people, they are clearly led by the man and woman in the middle.

The female cultivator looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a round face and a charming and adorable expression, while the male cultivator was tall and elegant with an extraordinary air about him.

As they descended, the group looked around with amazement. When they saw a beautiful view, they would point it out to their companions, and then they would all exclaim in admiration.

The group quickly spotted Zhou Qing walking uphill, so they all stopped, cupped their hands in greeting, and said, "Senior Brother."

Zhou Qing nodded in return and asked, "Are you new registered disciples?"

The male disciple in the middle replied, "That's right."

When should one begin learning?

The male disciple replied, "More than three months."

That is, the sermon just ended.

Zhou Qing smiled and nodded, then brushed past them and continued walking towards home.

New disciples have arrived at Ziyun Mountain again; before we knew it, they had become seasoned veterans of previous years.

Zhou Qing suddenly felt the power of time flowing quietly by.

The five young cultivators watched Zhou Qingyuan's departing figure.

The round-faced female cultivator suddenly let out a surprised exclamation.

"Junior Sister Yuan, what's wrong?"

The male cultivator asked.

Junior Sister Yuan asked, "Did he head towards the bamboo forest?"

Only then did the group realize the problem.

"It's heading towards the bamboo forest!"

The male cultivator asked in surprise, "Are there other courtyards over there?"

"Yes, there is, but there are other shortcuts to those courtyards. The most likely way to get there is by taking this road."

The other female cultivator, who was slender and had a shy expression, spoke.

The answer immediately came to the minds of the cultivators.

Junior Sister Yuan exclaimed, "So, he's come out of seclusion! We're so lucky to have run into him."

The others nodded excitedly as well.

All the disciples knew that there was a legendary figure in Ziyun Mountain who, as a nominal disciple, became the most powerful person in the sect in just three years.

Not only was he incredibly powerful, but his strength was also unfathomable; his Qi Refining cultivation was so profound that he could disregard Foundation Establishment experts.

These people had been at the Qingyun Sect for more than three months, and all they heard about him was rumors.

Of all the rumors, the one that resonated most with them and inspired their admiration was that person's selfless act.

It is said that the monthly allowance for registered disciples used to be only two low-grade spirit stones, but now, after that person increased it several times, the monthly allowance has increased to one mid-grade spirit stone, a direct increase of five times.

These newly initiated disciples, having heard the man's legends and enjoyed his favors every day, naturally became very curious about him.

These five disciples were the best among the newly initiated disciples, and they had long wanted to meet that person, but he had been in seclusion and had not had the opportunity.

Unexpectedly, they bumped into that person while sightseeing together today; it was truly a stroke of luck.

Junior Sister Yuan said, "Let's follow them and see."

The others responded in kind, and the group quickened their pace, chasing after the bamboo forest.

After they passed through the bamboo forest, they indeed saw their senior brother enter the legendary courtyard, which completely confirmed their guess.

"It's a pity. If I had recognized him earlier, I could have kept him for a moment and heard his lesson firsthand," the timid Lin Xiyue said regretfully.

Junior Sister Yuan's eyes darted around, and she said, "Why don't we go up and knock on the door and see?"

"Don't!"

Senior Brother Zhang Jingzhai hurriedly stopped his junior brothers and sisters from their unrealistic fantasies, saying, "I've heard that this senior brother dislikes being disturbed the most. Once he closes his doors, even important figures in the sect can't easily see him."

The group then abandoned their idea.

Then Zhang Jingzhai added, “It’s fine for us to admire our senior brother in private, but we must never show such thoughts in front of our master.”

Lin Xiyue asked in confusion, "Why is that?"

Zhang Jingzhai said, "I heard that my master and that senior brother have some grudges."

"What holiday?"

Junior Sister Yuan pouted and said, "It's obvious that he picked a fight with that senior brother several times, and as a result, he was humiliated by that senior brother several times. Now he closes his door every day and acts as if he doesn't care about sect affairs. He's been suppressed by that senior brother so much that he can't lift his head up."

Zhang Jingzhai said with a wry smile, "Junior sister, please say less. You may not be afraid of Uncle-Master Lü, but we are. Alright, let's go sightseeing in other places."

After saying that, he pushed several junior brothers and sisters away from the bamboo forest, fearing that Junior Sister Yuan might say something taboo again.

These are the secrets of the sect's highest levels, things that newly initiated disciples like them shouldn't discuss.

Not everyone is as gifted as that senior, who was able to cross the gap that other geniuses took hundreds of years to bridge in just three years.

……

Back home, Zhou Qing used a paper crane to send a message to Wei Xu, asking him to gather all his fellow disciples for a banquet at his house that evening.

Having not seen them for more than half a year, he should know their current situation.

After sending out the paper cranes, Zhou Qing wandered around his small courtyard and then went to check on Qing Yuan. He found that Qing Yuan wasn't home; she was probably working for Cheng Feipeng.

This guy doesn't like cultivating; he just likes to run around every day. Or when he runs out of spirit stones, he goes to Cheng Feipeng's place to work for a few days to get some spirit stones.

Spirit stones are an indispensable resource for other cultivators, but for Qingyuan, she usually goes to the Qingyun Market to buy some trinkets that she likes.

Other cultivators would surely see this kind of life as a huge waste, but she herself was quite content with it, so Zhou Qing just let her be.

Cultivating immortality is not the only way of life.

As evening fell, the younger students arrived one after another.

In less than six months, everyone's situation has changed dramatically.

They gradually shed their childishness and gained more of the composure and ease of cultivators.

Seeing everyone gradually grow up, Zhou Qing felt very gratified.

Wang Xiaohu and Wei Xu arrived at the same time.

"Brother Zhou Qing, you're finally out of seclusion!"

Wang Xiaohu called out happily from a distance.

Zhou Qing smiled and glanced at him, saying, "You've advanced to the second level of Qi Refining, not bad, not bad."

Wang Xiaohu asked in surprise, "Brother Zhou Qing, how did you know?"

He was constantly using the technique to conceal his presence.

Zhou Qing smiled but did not respond.

Under the effect of his Heavenly Net Formation, no technique that concealed its aura could escape unscathed.

That's how Wei Xing died at his hands.

Zhou Qing used a magnetic field array to look at his fellow disciples and found that everyone had advanced to the second level of Qi Refining. Among them, the best, like Wei Xu and Zhang Shan, had reached the peak of the second level of Qi Refining and could break through at any time.

Zhou Qing patted Wei Xu on the shoulder and smiled, "Well done, you can try to break through recently."
