After disappearing for ten years, the junior sister made the entire sect kneel down to welcome her.

Su Mingyue was somewhat incredulous.

Suspecting he was seeing things, he rubbed his eyes again.

After confirming that the person inside was indeed Luo Huanzhen, she screamed almost hoarsely, "What are you doing here?!"

Luo was actually bending over, searching for medicinal herbs, and next to her was an injured puppet that looked like a real person.

Hearing the rude question behind her, she turned around and said, "Why can't I be here?"

"Didn't we just meet in your illusion array? Isn't that painful enough?"

As he spoke, Luo Huanzhen's gaze slowly moved down to Su Mingyue's exposed waist.

The sect competition can be watched in its entirety by outsiders.

Su Mingyue dressed so beautifully, even deliberately revealing a section of her slender white waist, because she knew this was a good opportunity to boost her popularity. The more charming she looked, the more disciples would look at her.

But now...

Her snow-white waist was captivating.

The tiny footprint on her snow-white waist was even more alluring...

Su Mingyue was immediately filled with shame and indignation.

It wasn't a hallucination; it really was Luo Zhenhuan who kicked her!

She actually passed the formation test too!

Su Mingyue bit her lip, her eyes red, and said, "Junior Uncle, even if you hate me, you shouldn't attack a fellow disciple..."

Luo Zhenhuan had no interest in paying attention to Su Mingyue's provocative words.

She's determined to get first place.

So after finding enough medicinal herbs, she dragged the injured puppet to a quiet place and put it down. Then she stretched out her legs, sat on the ground, and started pinching and chopping grass with a handful of herbs in each hand.

Su Mingyue stood still, staring intently at Luo Huanzhen.

She actually came in, with a small scroll floating above her head, displaying four tasks: medical skills, weapon crafting, formation breaking, combat, and demon slaying, all marked as "completed" in red.

Only one duel remains, currently showing as "matching in progress"...

The other scroll, belonging to the Golden Core stage competition venue, was still closed because the competition was in progress.

At this moment, Su Mingyue's feelings were extremely complicated.

How did she do it?

No, no matter how Luo Zhen managed to do it, he would still fail in a Golden Core stage competition.

Her score will definitely not be higher than mine, after all, I came prepared.

Thinking of this, Su Mingyue lowered her slightly pale face, a determined glint in her eyes.

Instead of looking at what Luo Zhen was doing, she mobilized her spiritual power and opened the mission scroll.

The world is in chaos, and demonic beasts roam freely. You are a wandering healer who encounters a fellow cultivator injured by a fiery vulture. Your medical skills assessment task is to treat and suture the cultivator's festering wounds and concoct suitable elixirs to aid in his recovery.

After reading the exam questions, Su Mingyue felt relieved.

Elder Danhong hadn't lied to her; the question was indeed about how to deal with an attack by a Flame Vulture.

She strolled over to the medicinal herbs, quickly selected the necessary herbs, needles, thread, and tools, and then turned and walked towards the plaza where the alchemy furnace was located.

As Su Mingyue passed by Luo Huanzhen, who was squatting in the corner of the pharmacology room with his head down, a barely perceptible sneer appeared on her lips—idiot. He doesn't understand pharmacology, yet he's just randomly fiddling with things here!

However, the disciples in the sect square were extremely excited.

"It's starting! It's starting!"

"Junior Martial Aunt is about to begin her incredible skill of shaping pills with her bare hands!"

"That's amazing! That's incredible! My mother asked me why I was kneeling while watching the sect test... Waaaaah!"

The disciples of Medicine Peak, in particular, craned their necks, eager to rush into the secret realm and observe up close how Luo Zhen had managed to do it.

They want to learn too, please!

Su Mingyue's steps were orderly and methodical.

While refining elixirs, she scraped and stitched up the puppet's festering wounds, applied medicine, and used magic to relieve its pain.

She had practiced these techniques more than ten times in private and was confident of victory.

However, since today's event was a formal sect assessment, she was still a little nervous.

After treating the puppet's injuries and feeding it a muscle-regenerating and detoxifying pill, Su Mingyue's forehead was already covered in a fine layer of sweat when the unconscious puppet opened its eyes.

She pursed her lips slightly, revealing a reserved and smug smile.

She was probably the first to cure the puppet.

Just as he was about to get up with the puppet he had healed and head to the pharmacology assessment settlement area to receive the admiring gazes of the disciples, he suddenly heard exclamations of amazement and praise in his ears—

Su Mingyue looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the puppet next to Luo Huanzhen was doing a backflip with a rosy face and twirling a handkerchief, indicating that its injuries had been completely healed.

A group of disciples, carrying medicinal herbs and dragging their dying puppets, were surrounding Luo Huanzhen and her puppets, acting as their straight men.

"Using spiritual energy as a guide, twisting it into a stitch? That's an exaggeration!"

"Her pills were made by hand; she didn't even use a pill-refining furnace."

"Wow...that's amazing!"

"Junior Uncle should undoubtedly be number one in the field of medicine!"

Luo Zhen accepted everyone's praise quite calmly, then patted his little bottom and said, "Alright, I'm leaving now. Good luck, my junior disciples."

As she left, everyone responded with excitement.

"Okay! We will!"

Everyone's attention was focused on Luo Huanzhen, and no one paid attention to Su Mingyue, who had also healed the puppet.

Su Mingyue stood there, so jealous that her fingernails dug into her flesh.

How is that possible?

How could she be so powerful? Even with Elder Danhong's help, I still couldn't beat her.

"Let's go, turn in the mission..."

The puppet beside her made a clicking sound to urge her on, and Su Mingyue bit her lip, reluctantly following Luo Huanzhen's steps.

The two met at the mission handover platform at the exit of the pharmacology lab.

Luo Huan finished handing in the task on tiptoe and turned to leave, but her hand was suddenly grabbed by Su Mingyue from behind.

The water curtain even gave this scene a close-up magnification.

off the field.

Everyone held their breath!

Then, Su Mingyue's soft and beautiful face appeared on the screen.

Her eyes were red, but she still stubbornly raised her little face, refusing to admit defeat:

"Junior Uncle, I admit your medical skills are superior, no wonder Grandmaster Yun Yao accepted you. But Mingyue also wants to prove to you that I am not the good-for-nothing you see. Next, do you dare to have a real battle demon-slaying contest with Mingyue, or we can go to the weapon-refining hall?"

Luo Huanzhen looked down at the hand she was holding.

"Junior Nephew Su, I think you've always been too confident in yourself. I've already finished the Golden Core stage assessment, and you've never been qualified to be my opponent."

As Luo Zhenhuan finished speaking, the second small white scroll that was flying above her head slowly unfurled.

Su Mingyue saw that on the fluttering scroll, after the four lines of tiny characters describing medical techniques, weapon crafting, combat demon slaying, and formation breaking, there was a red "Completed".

At that moment, Su Mingyue's face turned deathly pale.
