Chapter 9 - Chapter 9 Arrogant and Domineering

"Hehe! The Eldest Young Mistress is right! Once we've come this far, we must strive to stay!"

Li Yunjing was momentarily lost in thought, but immediately returned to normal and praised.

"By the way, what is the Dou Division?"

Thinking of the Yu Family's strong influence having a foothold in the "Shenxiao Dao Sect", Li Yunjing couldn't help but ask.

"The Shenxiao Dao Sect is immensely powerful, with various halls within it. The Dou Division is the department responsible for combat. Among its disciples, those of the same realm are exceptionally powerful. This Ma Ye is likely the top figure among the Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer cultivators."

Yu Yunyi explained softly as she and Li Yunjing walked towards the square.

"So that's how it is."

Li Yunjing nodded. To fully understand the "Shenxiao Dao Sect", it would probably not be something achievable in a short time.

"All candidates for the assessment, please line up in front of the eight stone platforms for the Spirit Root test!"

When Yu Yunyi and Li Yunjing arrived at the square, a flash of radiant light appeared in the sky, and an elderly Daoist of immortal descend suddenly manifested.

Upon his appearance, he swept his gaze over the hundreds present. His piercing eyes compelled everyone to bow their heads involuntarily. The elderly Daoist shouted, his voice resonating like a great bell, echoing across the square for a long time.

As his voice faded, dozens of young Daoists like Ma Ye appeared on the square.

These Daoists stood near the eight stone platforms in the center of the square, signaling the people to divide into eight groups under their guidance and take the Spirit Root test simultaneously.

"Come on! Follow me."

Yu Yunyi moved swiftly like a wisp of green smoke, leading Li Yunjing towards a less busy queue.

"Make way!"

As Yu Yunyi and Li Yunjing properly lined up, an arrogant voice sounded.

Next, a large hand grabbed Li Yunjing's shoulder and tried to push him aside.

"Huh? Can you still act with violence within Shenxiao Dao Sect?"

Feeling a great force attacking, Li Yunjing became furious. Gathering his strength, he deployed the Thousand-Pound Weight technique, making the person behind him unable to push him away!

"Oh? Kid, you have some skill! But if you dare to compete with me, you must have a death wish!"

The person behind was slightly surprised and arrogantly spoke.

However, his final words were deeply low, evidently showing his concern about "Shenxiao Dao Sect's" reaction.

Li Yunjing turned to look at the person behind him.

It was a young man.

In a golden robe, holding a jade fan, his face was thin, eyes narrow, slightly squinted, giving off a sinister feeling.

If not for this, the young man could be considered quite handsome and dashing.

"Brother, everyone is lining up. What are you doing?"

Li Yunjing's voice was low, coldly asking.

"Hahaha! Call me brother? Are you worthy? What's your name? Young master asked you to get lost, you not only didn't move but dared to question me?"

The young man seemed incredulous that a small figure dared to question him and couldn't help but laugh.

His expression was infinitely contemptuous, the ridicule from a strong to a weak.

"You..."

Li Yunjing was enraged. As a martial artist in a previous life, it was the first time he was so belittled. Rolling up his sleeves, he was ready to fight with this unknown young master.

"Hmph! Fu Chao, what are you doing? This is 'Shenxiao Dao Sect'! You've come here, don't you know to restrain yourself?"

But before Li Yunjing acted, a jade hand pulled at his shirt, stopping his impulsive actions.

At the same time, Yu Yunyi's clear voice sounded, though calm, Li Yunjing could still detect a trace of anger.

This warmed Li Yunjing's heart. Having someone help to stand up at this moment was definitely a good thing.

Simultaneously, Li Yunjing felt a deep sense of apprehension towards the thin young man. Yu Yunyi could call out his name, indicating his background was not simple.

He was likely, like Yu Yunyi, from a prominent family.

"Hehe! Yu Yunyi, in 'Shenxiao Dao Sect', of course, I wouldn't dare act violently. Just now, I was just trying to scare this dim-witted kid."

Fu Chao's face darkened, then reverted to normal, explaining with a chuckle.

"I didn't expect you to come for the assessment. You, a playboy, even have a day of ambition?"

Seeing that Fu Chao was no longer targeting Li Yunjing, Yu Yunyi's tone softened considerably.

"Yu Yunyi, you practice diligently every day, but only have Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer cultivation."

"I, on the other hand, left and right, indulge in pleasures, and still have Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer cultivation. Does diligence mean anything?"

Talking about cultivation, Fu Chao frowned, clearly disliking this topic...

This woman really is a blockhead!

Always discussing things he hates.

"Hmph! Lack of ambition! Your Fu Family sent you in, totally wasting a precious opportunity."

Yu Yunyi slightly shook her head, not approving of Fu Chao's words at all.

"By the way, who is this kid? Your boyfriend?"

Unwilling to discuss cultivation, Fu Chao shifted the topic, turning his gaze back to Li Yunjing.

He sized Li Yunjing up and down. The kid has some temperament, almost like me...

Just his cultivation is low, Yu Yunyi has such poor judgment to choose a decorated pillow?

"Shut your dirty mouth!"

Yu Yunyi's pretty face turned slightly red, a flash of coldness in her bright eyes, she glared fiercely at Fu Chao.

"Kid, whoever you are! Being with this woman, you'll suffer misfortune!"

Ignoring Yu Yunyi's anger, Fu Chao chuckled and turned away, walking towards another queue.

"Make way!"

This young master was impolite wherever he went. Seeing an unlucky fellow in the middle of the queue, casually pushed him out.

Fu Chao seamlessly took that person's spot.

Leaving the bewildered trial taker glaring angrily at Fu Chao.

Clearly, he dared not make a move against Fu Chao.

Not everyone had the courage to argue with the strong like Li Yunjing.

Nor did everyone have a peerless woman like Yu Yunyi to draw swords in aid.

The trial taker pushed out of the queue could do nothing but leave dismally, turning to the end of the line to queue again.

This time, there were hundreds of newcomers wanting to join the "Shenxiao Dao Sect". The eight long queues, each had no fewer than fifty or sixty people.

Yu Yunyi and Li Yunjing were in the middle of their queue. Yu Yunyi didn't take someone else's spot like Fu Chao.

"Didn't expect, after coming to this world, I would have a day of queuing."

Admiring Yu Yunyi's graceful back, Li Yunjing queued obediently, feeling this odd sensation akin to queuing for tickets, almost felt dreamlike.
