For a moment, the Xiuxian Square was filled with noise, all the disciples were chattering, and the leaders stood on the high platform, looking at Gu Ning, the culprit who caused this scene, with complicated eyes.

However, she looked very happy, looking left and right, shaking hands with the disciples who were starry-eyed, and nodding with a smile.

He looked like a real big boss, and all the leaders had to look at Song Mingyue in silence.

"Master Song, your disciple is really interesting."

Seeing Song Mingyue stroking his beard and smiling, Fan Fusheng curled his lips and said, "You Mingyue Sect is ahead in everything, so you won't give other sects a chance to overtake, right?"

Song Mingyue glanced at Fan Fusheng lightly, "What are you talking about? Can you catch up with us in this hour?"

“Although we can’t catch up, we can narrow the gap.” Li Guzi continued, “Besides, if there is no first place, there are still second and third place…”

Song Mingyue tilted her head, "I can't control this, it's the problem of the Misty Forest."

Hearing this, all the sect leaders looked up to the sky in silence. Song Mingyue's heart had already been deviated to the point where it could not be saved.

People have already come out, what else can they say?

Finally, under the witness of all the sect leaders, Mingyue Sect became the undisputed number one sect, followed by Qingyun Sect, Fusheng Sect, Yaofeng Sect, Chaotian Sect and Chenshui Sect.

Zhou Wentian stood there with a stern face, and when he heard the last appearance of Shenshui Sect, he couldn't help but clench his hands a little.

Still...last.

Zhou Wentian looked at Li Guzi with some guilt. Li Guzi nodded at him and said, "Although you are the last one, you performed very well."

Zhou Wentian pursed his lips and said, "It is my fault. Please punish me, Master."

Originally, Li Guzi and all the disciples of Chenshui Sect had full confidence in this test match.

Zhou Wentian, who was born with a sword bone, was the first person to be personally taught. Xie Nian, Chen Tian and Fan Sisi were all defeated by him.

Before the test match, they didn't take Gu Ning and Gu Rou seriously at all. They were just two rookies who had just entered the sect. Who could have thought that they could become such powerful dark horses?

Li Guzi raised his hand and touched Zhou Wentian's head. "It has nothing to do with you. Winning or losing is a small matter. What makes me more pleased is that you used the Liuguang Sword to perform the life and death battle."

Zhou Wentian suddenly raised his head and looked at Li Guzi intently, his voice trembling, "Master..."

How could it have nothing to do with him?

Zhou Wentian was very clear that he would definitely be subject to great criticism when he returned to the sect this time, and his master would also be criticized by the elders.

But since his master didn't say anything, he didn't ask and forced himself to suppress his excitement.

Seeing that Zhou Wentian had calmed down, Li Guzi continued, "These multiple life-and-death struggles have greatly benefited your cultivation. You may be able to try to break through."

"If you break the golden elixir, you will be the person who has formed the fastest elixir in the past hundred years." Li Guzi tapped Zhou Wentian's shoulder, "Wentian, do you understand what your master means?"

Although the sect ranks last, he must be first.

Zhou Wentian nodded vigorously, and then Li Guzi turned and left, muttering in a low voice, "When I go back this time, those elders will go crazy and nag this brat Wentian. I'd better think about what to say first."

On the other side, Gu Ning was surrounded by disciples of Mingyue Sect and returned to his residence. After a lively celebration, the disciples left reluctantly.

After going through the brutal tests and social activities, Gu Ning felt extremely exhausted. He threw himself into the soft quilt and fell asleep.

He slept until the evening. When he opened his eyes, warm orange sunlight shone into the room through the window. Gu Ning squinted his eyes to block the sunlight, and suddenly he felt a little alive in his heart.

"Oh my, it's better to just eat and wait for death..."

"You're so young and you want to just eat and wait for death?"

Just as he finished speaking, Song Mingyue's smiling voice rang in his ears, "Why don't you get up? After the game, you didn't even pay your respects to the master first, but fell asleep instead."

Outside the door, Song Mingyue stood there holding a lunch box. Gu Ning hurriedly got up, dressed neatly, and opened the door.

Seeing the food box in Song Mingyue's hand, her stomach started to growl.

Suddenly, her face turned red.

"Wow, Master is so kind. He knows that Aning has been starving these past few days." As he spoke, Gu Ning rushed towards Song Mingyue, snatched the food box, and then looked at Song Mingyue with a flattering smile, "Master is so kind!"

Song Mingyue knocked Gu Ning's head in annoyance, "You can't even stand this little bit of hunger, don't you just eat the precious spiritual fruit when you get it?"

Gu Ning held Song Mingyue's arm and shook it, "That's called survival, this is called life."

"You little rascal, eat quickly." Song Mingyue shook her head helplessly.

Starving the body is actually a part of cultivation.

Gu Ning sat down at the stone table without any hesitation and opened the food box impatiently.

In the food box, the round spiritual buns and the exquisite and delicious spiritual vegetables and plants exuded a fragrant aroma. Gu Ning didn't hesitate and started to eat with chopsticks.

After a long while, when Gu Ning had eaten and drunk his fill, Song Mingyue gently knocked on the table, her eyes gentle but serious, "Aning, do you know what you did wrong this time?"

Gu Ning blinked his eyes and honestly admitted his mistake, "It's just a trick."

Song Mingyue nodded.

“Take advantage of other people’s sympathy.”

Song Mingyue nodded again.

"Also... it's just greed and recklessness."

Song Mingyue sighed and patted Gu Ning's head. "Since you already know everything, I won't say much. I just want to say..."

Song Mingyue's eyes were bright, "Those who practice Taoism must not let these things mess up their Taoism. If they rely on these blindly, they will eventually fail to achieve the right method."

Gu Ning nodded, and Song Mingyue said, "Then Zhou Wentian did a great job."

Speaking of Zhou Wentian, Gu Ning tugged at his clothes with a guilty conscience, "I did try to trick him."

"But he is too stubborn." Song Mingyue said, "It is easy for him to develop a mental disorder."

"This time, he will be punished when he returns."

"Ah, is it so serious?"

"The sect rules of the Shenshui Sect are strict." Song Mingyue continued, "Anyone who fails to complete the sect's mission will be punished. Zhou Wentian's mission this time is to achieve first place in the sect."

Hearing this, Gu Ning frowned, "Is there such a task?"

She didn't understand and was greatly shocked. How could one definitely win first place in a competition?

Song Mingyue nodded, "This is the price he paid for taking the sect's sword, the Liuguang Sword."

If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.

At this moment, Gu Ning suddenly understood the meaning of this sentence.

The Shenshui Sect entrusted an important task to Zhou Wentian, and if he did not do well, he would be punished.

"Fortunately, our Mingyue Sect is reasonable." After a while, Gu Ning smiled and looked at Song Mingyue mischievously.

Song Mingyue nodded her head, "Naughty, we in Mingyue Sect are not that serious."
