Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Thorn in My Heart

I can't say it!There must be some unavoidable hardship, so he nodded in understanding and smiled faintly: "It's nothing, I still have to thank you!"Hai Yi Xue mumbled to herself, wanting to say somet..."Deal with me!"

At that moment, Gingercloud's heart lit up. He realized that he not only ruined his senior sister's plan but also injured Xu Chongshen's beloved beast. Now that the two had successfully tricked Lu Xiaoyu out of the sect, they would naturally turn their attention to him next.

Ginger Cloud's lips slowly curled upwards, revealing a sneer, but it quickly retracted. He stared at the short and stout man and said, "If I find out you're lying even half a word, next time, I will still cripple you!"

After throwing out that sentence, Ginger Cloud leaped towards the square. Only after Ginger Cloud's figure disappeared did the short and stout man let out a breath and said resentfully, "Don't think I don't know who you are, Ginger Cloud. Half a year ago, as an ordinary person, you were just a wild man with brute strength. But if you want to fight me, Bao Yuanqiang, you're still too young!"

As he spoke, Bao Yuanqiang got up from the ground, rubbing his neck. A sinister smile slowly spread across his fat face: "Hehehe, judging by your appearance, you're definitely going to cause trouble for Senior Sister Fang. In this Wudao Sect, who doesn't know that Senior Sister Fang Ruolin is the younger sister of Fang Yuxuan I want to see, this time, how will you die!"

If Jiang Yun could hear this, then the doubts he had in his heart before would have a reasonable answer.

Within this sect, many may not have heard of the name of the Five Peaks Peak Master, nor the Sect Leader's name. However, there is absolutely no one who does not know the name Fang YuXuan.

This inner disciple, the number one in his cohort, had long been viewed by almost all of the disciples of the Wen Dao sect as a goal and role model. His impressive feat during the re-examination was even considered legendary.

The person who wants to frame Lu Xiaoyu is Fang Ruolin, the biological sister of Fang Yuxuan. She also issued the task to Lu Xiaoyu in Fang Yuxuan's name and offered rewards for completing it. Of course, Lu Xiaoyu would not, nor could he, have any suspicion.

Bao Yuanqiang glanced around, straightened his clothes, and shook his head as he walked toward the square.

The little episode between Jiang Yun and the short, stout man went unnoticed by anyone because at that very moment, above the square's sky, a figure had appeared, standing aloft in the air. It was precisely Xiao Yishu, the main peak inner disciple who had been in charge of arranging the trials when they first entered.

Although he was alone, as a cultivator of the Fudi realm, his ability to preside over this re-examination was more than enough. His appearance also meant that the re-examination was about to begin.

Ginger Cloud silently returned to the square and stood at the back of the crowd, just like everyone else, staring at Xiao Yishu in the air. Her mind raced with thoughts.

Although he was anxious now, he also knew that to find out Lu Xiaoyu's whereabouts, he had to first pass the re-examination. During the small competition, he had to face either that senior sister or Xu Chengshan.

However, Xiaobi is not open to every new disciple. After all, the retest is not too difficult, and about half of the disciples who have taken the retest in previous years have passed.

There are over 400 new disciples. Half of them, or around 200 people, would need several days to participate in the small competition if they all took part. Therefore, in order to save time, only the disciples who performed outstandingly during the re-examination were allowed to participate in the small competition.

In short, the retest scores must be at least two levels higher than the original level to be eligible for the small competition!

According to Jiang Yun's original plan, he was only going to show the cultivation level of a Meridian Opening Realm and pass through the re-examination. However, with Lu Xiaoyu's disappearance, he had to slightly change his plan.

To qualify for Xiao Bi, Xu Chengshan and the other would definitely take the initiative to attack me. I must defeat them and force them to reveal Xiaoyu's whereabouts!

Although Xiaoyu left early this morning, her speed must not have been fast. With my speed, I should be able to catch up to her! As long as I catch up to her today and bring her back to the sect, it might not be considered missing the assessment. After all, the elder of Bai Shoufeng also has high hopes for her, so it's no problem if it's a bit late!

"Once Xiaoyu truly becomes an inner disciple, even if that outer sect senior sister has any grievances, under the rules of the sect, she probably wouldn't dare to cause trouble!"

"As long as Xiao Yu is fine, then at the competition later, I'll give those two a little lesson, let them know not to mess with Xiao Yu. That should put an end to this!"

As these thoughts flitted through her mind one by one, Jiang Yun's heart finally calmed slightly. At this very moment, Xiao Yishu's cold voice rang out!

"Quiet!"

As Xiao Yishu's voice fell, with a sweep of his sleeve, five beams of white light shot out from his cuff and landed on the plaza below.

Five fist-sized white beads, quietly suspended a person's height above the ground, with shimmering light dancing on them.

"Mystic Orb!"

Seeing these beads, someone in the crowd immediately called out their names.

Ginger also recognized these five beads and quietly let out a breath, saying in a voice only he could hear, "What luck! They're using Spirit Testing Beads to test. This way, there's no need even to hide one's cultivation."

For re-examination, Jiang Yun had naturally inquired beforehand and knew that the Zhendo Sect had always used three methods for re-examinations.

The first kind is a man-made test, where inner disciples of the blessed land use their divine consciousness to scan the bodies of the participating disciples. They judge the cultivation realm based on the strength of the aura emanating from them; the second kind uses a mirror similar to the Mirror of Inquiry. Standing in front of the mirror automatically reflects one's cultivation realm; the third kind is this Spirit-Measuring Orb. Just hold it and continuously infuse it with spiritual energy. The orb will emit light, one ray for the first level of meridian opening, two rays for the second level, and so on, up to nine rays for the highest level.

The latest 7 chapters (I section / Z top)

Originally, Ginger Cloud was a bit worried about the second way of testing, so she sought advice from her second senior sister on how to conceal her cultivation base. However, now she naturally doesn't need to.

The amount of spiritual energy you infuse into the spirit orb is entirely under your control!

If anyone could know Ginger Cloud's thoughts, they would definitely consider him an oddball.

For retests, everyone wants to squeeze out every ounce of their potential. Who would intentionally hide their strength

"Alright, everyone line up according to inner and outer disciples, as well as the attendants..." Xiao Yishu's concise voice rang out again, but midway through his words, he abruptly stopped, two piercing gazes sweeping across the crowd in the square.

Seeing Xiao Yi's gaze, Jiang Yun's heart skipped a beat, and a wry smile flashed across his face.

As expected, when Xiao Yishu saw Jiang Yun at the back of the crowd, his brows furrowed slightly, and he pointed at Jiang Yun: "You, last one!"

Naturally, everyone else's eyes followed Xiao Yishu's finger.

At first glance, most people instantly understood. Even those who didn't understand remembered it in the midst of deliberately cryptic and ambiguous words.

"Hey, isn't this the same unlucky wild man who got lucky back then! Haha, looking at you, with no energy whatsoever, you must still be a wild man, right I wonder, will anyone take you as a disciple again this time!"

Six months ago, during the entrance exam for the Three Gates, Jiang Yun's performance was truly eye-catching. Coupled with the fact that he failed to pass a single gate but was still taken in as a miscellaneous disciple like the others, many people had already remembered him.

The one who spoke just now was Huo Yuan. Although his face was full of mockery, if you looked closely, you would find a trace of killing intent hidden deep in his eyes.

Even today, Huo Yuan still remembers the two looks that Jiang Yun gave him that day. Sometimes, he even wakes up suddenly in meditation, as if a sword were on his back.

To be honest, he didn't know why the gaze of an ordinary person would fill him with such fear. But he knew, Jiang Yun had to die.

Because of Ginger Cloud's gaze, it had already become a thorn in his heart.

If Jiang Yun does not die, then his state of mind, and even his future path of cultivation, will be greatly affected.

Although he had wanted to kill Jiang Yun every moment for the past six months, when he entered Wendaomen, he was already at the third level of Tongmai. Wanting to improve another level within six months would be more difficult for him, so he didn't have the extra time and opportunity to deal with Jiang Yun.

Seeing Jian Yun again now naturally brought up the killing intent in Huo Yuan's heart. Especially when he discovered that Jian Yun seemed to still be an ordinary person, he instantly realized that the thorn in his heart should finally be able to be pulled out today! see bloodlines!Of course, for me, once I find a “trace,” there is a way to conceal it."However, because my grandfather and I both have limited talents, we are not very proficient in mastering bloodli...
