A cool breeze swept up the fallen leaves, bringing with it a slight chill. The Bewitching Tree Spirit stood quietly in place, just like any other ordinary tree.
There were no signs of a major battle around, or even any trace of anyone passing by.
Qin Yangjun was dumbfounded.
Hiss—what happened? Where is everyone? Am I late? That can't be! Could it be that my delay changed the timeline?
Qin Yangjun looked around, even using his divine sense, but there wasn't a single person within a hundred meters.
Just then, Qin Yangjun suddenly heard the voice transmissions of the two assistant examiners.
"Senior brother, a disciple has already collected thirty points. Please come and verify them as soon as possible."
Passing the level? No way.
Qin Yangjun felt a sense of unease. He suddenly remembered that Yu Lingyue in the book had not intended to attract much attention; her act of showing off was entirely passive.
If she hadn't encountered the Bewitching Tree Demon, she wouldn't have had a chance to make it into the top three.
If, due to some unforeseen circumstances, she changed her route and did not encounter the Bewitching Tree Demon.
It's not impossible for her to give a "60 points is enough" score.
So you spent all that time planning, only to end up with nothing to show for it.
Ugh.
Qin Yangjun sighed inwardly.
But upon reflection, it was all my own doing. If I hadn't delayed things, perhaps this wouldn't have happened.
However, this feeling of disappointment only flashed through Qin Yangjun's mind for a moment. After all, there is always hope in the future.
"Okay, I'll be right back. You guys go ahead and review it. Don't keep your junior brothers and sisters waiting too long."
After briefly responding to the examiner, Qin Yangjun prepared to leave.
However, since the matter was already settled, Qin Yangjun was not in a hurry to rush back.
Then the roar of the bear came again.
Qin Yangjun's gaze shifted slightly.
They're still fighting...
Chapter Seven: He's a Good Person
This fight has lasted for at least a quarter of an hour. Keep in mind that the Tyrant Bear is a half-step Foundation Establishment demon beast, while the strength of the newcomers is generally around the sixth or seventh level of Qi Refining. The fact that it can fight for so long shows that its strength is extremely high.
But then I thought of my fellow disciples waiting for me...
If I go home too late, will it seem like I'm putting on airs?
"Never mind, let's go back first."
Muttering something under his breath, Qin Yangjun turned around, and just as he was about to leave the direction of the battle, a yellowish-brown spiritual energy suddenly wafted from there.
Caught completely off guard, Qin Yangjun was knocked to the ground by this surge of spiritual energy, even rolling around several times.
"Fuck you!"
Normally, a cultivator at the Golden Core stage would not be defeated by this thing.
However, because he had only recently transmigrated, he was not quite used to his new identity and did not spread his divine sense at all times. In addition, he was thinking about something, which is why he was hit.
Qin Yangjun quickly got up. Luckily, no one was around, otherwise his image as the chief would have been completely ruined.
Being attacked for no reason ignited a nameless anger within Qin Yangjun.
He raised one hand, and a powerful aura swirled in his palm. He then swung his palm directly towards the direction from which he had been attacked.
The illusory palm prints cleaved each one in half...
boom!
As a cloud of dust rose, Qin Yangjun heard only a mournful cry, and the atmosphere of battle in the distance subsided.
Just as Qin Yangjun finished his stance, he heard his junior brother calling out to him again.
Helpless, he could only turn and leave.
However, what Qin Yangjun didn't know was...
At the Jade Feather Key.
She was sitting on the ground, still shaken, while Qian Xiaoyu was standing next to her, completely terrified.
Yu Lingyue originally intended to use someone else to do her dirty work, but things went awry.
Li Xuanyang had an escape talisman, so Ba Xiong didn't hurt him, only eliminating a few of his men.
It's no wonder they're royalty; they just throw away teleportation talismans worth thousands of spirit stones like that.
Subsequently, Yu Lingyue and Qian Xiaoyu became the targets of Ba Xiong's attacks.
She could easily escape, but Qian Xiaoyu couldn't. To protect Qian Xiaoyu, she had no choice but to fight Ba Xiong head-on.
However, the gap in their levels of understanding is insurmountable, especially since the Tyrant Bear is currently in a state of rage.
However, just when she was about to be injured by the bear and eliminated.
A sudden burst of palm force sent the tyrant flying with a single slap.
Others might not be able to detect it, but Yu Lingyue's cultivation technique was extremely special, enabling her to understand heaven and earth and all things. She immediately knew who the owner of this aura was.
"That Chief Qin, but why would he help me..."
Yu Lingyue murmured.
It's important to know that helping other students is not allowed; it's tantamount to cheating.
But Chief Examiner Qin was an examiner, and the chief examiner at that. His intervention in helping the trainees only compounded his crime.
I don't know him at all, so he has no reason to do such a thing.
Could he really be plotting against me...?
It wasn't that Yu Lingyue was narcissistic; she had encountered similar situations many times before.
However, while those other people's heroic rescues were planned, his might have just been a coincidence.
According to her plan, the person should appear and offer words of comfort the next second.
However, after a few moments, Qin Yangjun did not appear; in her perception, his aura had even vanished.
"I guess... he's attracted to your talent."
At this moment, the little fish suddenly spoke up.
"talent?"
"That's right. Look at you, you're only at the eighth level of Qi Refining, yet you're completely unharmed and fought a half-step Foundation Establishment demon beast for so long. You're definitely a promising talent."
At this point, Qian Xiaoyu got up from the ground and reached out her hand to Yu Lingyue.
“I know what you’re thinking. He’s after your body? I know you’re very charming, and sometimes I can’t resist you. It’s good to be vigilant, but don’t ignore other people’s pure goodwill.”
Xiaoyu and Yu Lingyue have known each other for seven years. Xiaoyu has basically gone through everything Yu Lingyue has gone through. As a close friend who has been through thick and thin with her, Xiaoyu can guess what Yu Lingyue is thinking without even having to think about it.
"Pure goodwill...."
Yu Lingyue placed her hand on Qian Xiaoyu's hand, but her gaze turned to the direction where the aura disappeared, as if she were deep in thought.
I didn't get help because of my charm.
For some reason, thinking about this made her feel inexplicably warm.
Meanwhile, Qin Yangjun had just returned to the finish line.
He then noticed four more people at the finish line: three women and one man. Two of them were around his age and were old acquaintances.
Hua Yaoyao's red outfit stood out so much in the darkness that Qin Yangjun naturally recognized her at a glance.
And the other one.....
Although they hadn't met since taking over the body, Qin Yangjun recognized the woman at a glance.
She wore a white lotus-patterned dress, and a gold and jade phoenix hairpin with tassels was pinned in her hair.
Her face was veiled in white, and her beautiful eyes revealed a cool and aloof demeanor.
A gentle breeze blew by, and a pair of long, fair legs were faintly visible beneath the elegant skirt. On those fair, pinkish feet were a pair of delicate and beautiful blue embroidered shoes.
From afar, she resembled a bright moon high in the sky, untouchable.
Yueyao.
She is ranked second on the Heavenly Ranking of the Yuqian Sect, the dream goddess of countless cultivators in the Great Yu Continent, and also the proud disciple of the Grand Elder.
Qin Yangjun remembered her not because of that.
Firstly, because the original Qin Yangjun was pursuing this woman, but was rejected many times. Secondly, in the book, this woman was also one of Yu Lingyue's concubines.
Moreover, after the second competition, he would be defeated by her, and she would become the chief disciple of the Yuqian Sect.
Although the protagonist in the book outwardly congratulates her, he secretly hates this woman for taking away his glamorous identity and honor.
Coupled with the previous rejection, which made him lose face, he secretly used underhanded tactics to severely injure Yueyao during the demonic invasion.
It was precisely because Yueyao was injured that she had many entanglements with Yu Lingyue later on.
Therefore, Yueyao's falling into the arms of the female lead was also caused by Qin Yangjun in the book.
Of course, I wouldn't be that kind of clown.
But now is not the time to think about that.
Qin Yangjun shifted his attention to the other two people.
A man dressed in a white robe, though of ordinary appearance, exuded an air of profound mystery.
The other one was a woman, dressed in plain clothes, with short hair, who could also be described as beautiful.
This is Yueyao and Huayaoyao's master.
