The head master has a new female apprentice

Chapter 7 No, why am I cute?

Because there were no extra cushions, Zhou Qing had to find a corner to sit down and wait quietly.

Looking around, everyone was wearing white clothes.

It seems that the content of Senior Sister Shi Zhen's lectures this time is all about Qi Condensation, otherwise the inner sect and true teachings might also come.

Not long after, a woman wearing a sky blue robe, with eyebrows as dark as distant ink and a cold expression appeared from the front.

Everyone quickly stood up and saluted.

Shi Zhen nodded, then sat down and got straight to the point without any unnecessary nonsense.

"What I'm going to talk about today is the 'Green Wood Imperial Spirit Shield'. It's a defensive technique based on wood-attributed spiritual energy. It's a must-learn technique for everyone in the Taiqing Sect, from the core to the outer sect. After all, only when you're alive can you have the opportunity to discuss other things."

After Shi Zhen finished speaking, as her mind moved, a strong wood-attributed spiritual energy suddenly surged in from all directions, as if summoned, and instantly condensed around her.

In just a blink of an eye, a solid shield was formed, with clear surface texture and a strong feel.

Everyone was amazed by this scene. After all, even if they could perform it with all their might, they would still need various mantras and seals.

It’s not like Senior Sister Shi Zhen, it’s just a matter of thought.

Zhou Qing also sighed. He couldn't do it so easily. If he faced a strong enemy, he needed to keep a certain distance and give himself time to perform.

Otherwise, before it even takes shape, people will already be in front of you.

Shi Zhen dispersed the wooden shield and began to explain: "The rhythm of wood is lingering, the spirit is flowing, the energy penetrates the universe, and the spirit is drawn to all directions. This mantra can actually be understood in a different way of thinking...."

Zhou Qing in the audience listened very carefully. Everyone had their own unique understanding of the same kind of martial arts.

…………

In the next three days, Zhou Qing kept going back and forth to the [Preaching Halls] of each peak to brush up on points. Although it was a bit slow, it was better to accumulate little by little.

And just today, the talent skill [Reduce Presence] finally reached the maximum level and was upgraded to LV2.

Not only that, he was pleasantly surprised to find that when he fell asleep in class, an extra skill fragment appeared without him noticing.

[Skill Fragments: 3/3 (Available)]

"Get it."

Excited, Zhou Qing quickly started synthesizing it.

The skill fragments were instantly cleared, and the obtainable ones became unobtainable.

Soon, a piece of information appeared in my mind.

[Talent Skill - Heart's Vision: Can see other people's inner thoughts about the host. Current level can bind three people.]

【As the level increases, the number of bound people will increase accordingly.】

[Change the bound object's view of the host to gain different levels of mind points.]

Zhou Qing blinked, finally understanding the new talent skill, which felt very interesting.

With a thought, the panel appeared.

[Name: Zhou Qing]

[Age: Nineteen]

[Cultivation: Early stage of foundation building]

[Kung Fu: Taiqing Xuanqi Jue]

[Talent Skills: Heart's Vision——LV1 (0/100),

Reduced Presence——LV2 (1/100)]

[Skill Fragments: 0/3 (Unobtainable)]

It seems that new skill fragments have to be accumulated again.

However, he soon noticed something different.

A core senior student teaching on the stage in front suddenly had three question marks appear above his head—[???].

As for the other thousand outer disciples who were listening to the lecture, there was no change.

"Since this new talent skill [Mind Vision] allows me to see others' true thoughts about me, the first prerequisite is of course to know them first. Here, only the fellow core teacher and I are somewhat familiar with each other. The others have probably never seen me."

In an instant, Zhou Qing began to understand this skill.

But at his current level, he can only bind three people, so he has to choose carefully.

Just then, someone patted him gently on the back.

When he turned around and saw the person coming, his face suddenly changed.

Because the smiling figure was none other than Lu Yaoyao.

But today she was dressed as a man, and like him, she was wearing the white outer sect robes.

"Brother Zhou, you were so hard to find! I scanned your location five times before I finally found you."

Lu Yaoyao smiled and sat down beside him.

Zhou Qing's face twitched and he quickly looked around. He soon found Li Daoxuan standing at the door of the [Preaching Hall], staring at him with a bad face.

Zhou Qing was speechless: "No, big sister, why do you always look for me?"

Lu Yaoyao said, "I didn't come here specifically to see you. I was here for class, but I heard you were here too, so I came over anyway."

Zhou Qing laughed.

Do you think I believe it or not?

Core disciples, wearing outer sect attire?

Is there a flower protector following you?
He knew I was here, so he dressed like this on purpose to make an enemy for me.

She doesn't look very old, and she's pretty good at using the beauty trap.

Then he looked at the question mark above Lu Yaoyao's head and said, "I want to see what your inner thoughts about me are."

Am I your first target for revenge?
"Bind Lu Yaoyao!" Zhou Qing locked onto Lu Yaoyao and spoke in his heart.

The next moment, the question mark above Lu Yaoyao's head gradually transformed into three golden words - [So cute!]

Zhou Qing took a deep breath and felt his head buzzing at that moment.

No, what happened?

How did it become [So cute]? Shouldn't it be [The enemy's apprentice] or [Play him to death]?
Is it really because I am handsome and dashing that you fell in love with me at first sight?
It really doesn't make sense, it's too ridiculous.

"There's a problem, a big problem!"

Zhou Qing frowned, feeling that this matter was not that simple.

Then, he looked at Li Daoxuan at the door, gritted his teeth, and tied him up as well.

Check if there is a system error. Soon, the question mark above Li Daoxuan's head turned into seven golden characters - [Enviable Rival in Love]

Well, that's normal.

That means——

Zhou Qing looked at the three dazzling words "So cute" again, and felt it was so ridiculous, but he breathed a sigh of relief, and even felt a little proud.

As long as it wasn't revenge from an enemy, it would be fine. If it was really revenge as he thought, who knows how many traps would be waiting for him in the future.

I never thought that I would be the most handsome guy in the core circle. This is really unexpected.

Then, he looked at Lu Yaoyao, who was listening attentively, blinked and said, "Junior Sister Lu."

"What's wrong, Senior Brother Zhou?" Lu Yaoyao turned her head immediately.

Zhou Qing coughed lightly and said, "Actually, I have someone I like."

Unexpectedly, Lu Yaoyao's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she quickly asked, "Really? Which peak is she from? Is she pretty? What's her name? Is she the one with green hair you mentioned before?"

Lu Yaoyao asked impatiently.

Faced with the somewhat excited Lu Yaoyao, Zhou Qing was even more confused.

You seem more excited than me.

Aren’t you sad?
Not jealous?
After all, the handsome guy you have a crush on has someone else he likes, so you have no chance and you might end up having to be his mistress.

Zhou Qing quickly looked at the note above his head, and the three words "so cute" were gradually disappearing.

This made him feel happy. After all, he said this in front of Lu Yaoyao just to make her change her opinion of him.

Only in this way can you get some valuable insights.

Women are born performers. They acted nonchalantly curious in front of me, but it turned out that they were actually scared inside.

But soon, the curve of Zhou Qing's mouth froze.

Because [so cute] directly turned into [so awesome].

Looking at Lu Yaoyao's inquiring and curious eyes, Zhou Qing's face twitched.

No, you are crazy, how can you say that?

Love-brained is not like this.

At this moment, Zhou Qing couldn't help but recall a story he had heard before.

The woman was being abused at home, and everyone advised her to leave as soon as possible, saying that the man no longer loved her.

But she shook her head vigorously and retorted confidently: "If he didn't love me, why would he only hit me and not others?"

Look, you are exactly like that woman now.

[Heart Judgment Points +3]

Looking at the newly generated points, Zhou Qing felt a little better. He then said, "Yes, it's the girl with green hair. She's very beautiful. I won't mention her name to avoid causing her any trouble."

Lu Yaoyao pondered seriously, "That's strange. I asked my senior brother to check all the female disciples of Taiqing Sect, but not a single one has green hair. There are two men, though..."

Lu Yaoyao looked at Zhou Qing suspiciously as she spoke.

Zhou Qing quickly stopped talking and asked, "Aren't you talking to yourself too loudly?"

"Let me make it clear in advance that I am a real man!" Zhou Qing said quickly.

Lu Yaoyao immediately smiled. "Of course I know you're a real man. Forget it, if you like her, then so be it. What boy didn't have a few female confidantes when he was young and frivolous? I understand, but they're just for transition. I can foresee that you'll definitely like a beautiful silver-haired girl in the future."

Zhou Qing looked at the thin layer of silver hair under her black hair and laughed in his heart.

You are really extremely narcissistic and confident.

"what--"

Suddenly, an outer disciple beside them shouted loudly, catching Zhou Qing and Lu Yaoyao off guard and frightening them both.

"What are you doing!" Zhou Qing said, covering his pounding heart.

The man's eyes were full of confusion: "No, I clearly remember that there was no one around. When did you come?"

Zhou Qing was about to say something when he remembered his current talent skill [Reduce Presence]. Facing Qi Condensation disciples, he could already ignore them by 90%.

The outer disciple's loud shout attracted the attention of everyone in the lecture hall. Even the core disciple who was teaching on the stage stopped and looked over here in confusion.

Zhou Qing was speechless and could only bow to everyone apologetically.

Anyway, this mission has been accomplished. If I stay any longer, the person at the door might eat me.

Zhou Qing simply left.

Fortunately, Lu Yaoyao just opened her mouth and did not choose to follow.

"Hello, Senior Brother Li!" Zhou Qing bowed when he came to Li Daoxuan.

Li Daoxuan looked unhappy and just said "hmm" lightly.

Zhou Qing looked at the seven golden characters above his head: "Enviable Rival in Love" and for some reason he wanted to laugh.

What is your identity? What is mine? Why are you jealous?
It's not worth it to hurt the relationship between us brothers because of a woman, even though we are not familiar with each other.

But then again, although the two of them had little contact, as the eldest disciple of the head teacher and the chief of Shen Yue Peak, he always had a good reputation.

He is also a righteous and heroic person. The eldest senior brother has praised him more than once before.

After the ceremony, Zhou Qing couldn't figure out how to change his opinion of him for a while, and then left.

As soon as he returned to Xiaoling Peak on his sword, a figure appeared behind him.

"Have you broken through the foundation-building stage?" Master Mo Xingjian's voice suddenly sounded, scaring Zhou Qing again.

Master, I know you are powerful and elusive, but you don’t have to be this scary.

He could only bow and say, "My disciple is dull and only had a lucky breakthrough a few days ago."

Mo Xingjian stroked his beard with great satisfaction. "Not bad, not bad. I heard that you've been running around the [Preaching Halls] of various peaks these days. Then work hard and don't let your third senior brother lead you astray. Peeping at women bathing will eventually lead to criticism."

"Master, I really didn't peek that day. They just didn't see me..."

"I know, I know. I just want to remind you that I have something else to do, so I'll leave first!"

Mo Xingjian waved his hand, interrupting Zhou Qing's explanation and left.

This made Zhou Qing speechless. Looking at the question mark above his master's head, he really wanted to see what kind of comments he had in his mind.

But he already has a candidate for the last spot. After all, this involves his chance to obtain the Heart Appraisal Points in the future.

"Puff, puff, Si'er, over here—"

Just as Zhou Qing was about to leave, Yan Xiaohu's furtive voice came from behind the rockery not far away.

Zhou Qing was puzzled and hurried over.

"Third Brother, are you out of seclusion?"
