The Virgin Mary in the Book: I Decide My Life with Two Swords

Cangyue Kingdom Langya Pavilion

After the martial arts test went on for a while, the account book was brought out, and Fang Shu walked onto the stage with some fear.

Chen Fei handed it to her and said, "Fang Shu, you only need to read the first three pages."

Fang Shu took the account book and looked at it under everyone's gaze. She read all the words only once and immediately closed it and handed it to Chen Fei.

Fade Chen opened the tent and said, "Please carry it!"

Fang Shu immediately recited it word for word. Chen Fei was a little skeptical, so he found two more pages in the middle, and Fang Shu still memorized it after reading it once.

Everyone was applauding her, and Fade Chen looked towards the second floor.

Yue Chi said, "Miss Fang's ability is quite impressive!"

Fang Shu saluted politely and said, "I'm sorry to have troubled you three officials."

"Fang Shu, you go down first. You can also take part in the martial arts test again," said Chen Fei.

After Fang Shu left, the martial arts test continued.

The three officials chatted while watching the game. Yue Chi asked, "What do you think of Fang Shu's photographic memory?"

"We in Renzitang do physical work, so there's no need to use your brain. If Envoy Yue likes her, you can keep her," Ye Ling said.

"There are many people in the Catholic Church who have a photographic memory, there is no shortage of them," Ji Ruochen said.

"Can you two do it?" Yue Chi was helpless: "She's just a girl, she has a photographic memory!"

"It's really amazing. I admire you," Ye Ling said with a smile.

"Master, don't envy her. You can also have a photographic memory. Mengmeng will help you scan and take notes." Mengmeng spoke in the space.

"Manager" Chen Fei brought up the account book and said, "This is the account book for our recent purchases."

"Let me see." Ye Ling reached out and took the account book from Ji Ruochen, flipping through it casually.

Ji Ruochen didn't say anything, but handed the snacks on his small table to Ye Ling: "If you're bored, you can eat while watching, or you can just not watch at all."

"How can that be? I'll get a lecture from my senior brother later. Sigh~ I originally thought that since my master has become the leader of the martial arts world, I can do whatever I want in Langya Pavilion. What a pity! I still have a senior brother, so I'd better behave myself!"

Looking at the person sighing, Yue Chi couldn't help laughing: "You! Now in Langya Pavilion, do you dare to say that you are not walking sideways? Anyone who dares to cross you is seeking death. Of course, you still have to be obedient to the Sect Master."

Ye Ling put down the account book and picked up the snacks. "By the way, Ji Sishi, what happened to Di Bin? Is he dead? He was so ugly. I heard that you brought the eunuch back with you. What are you going to do with him?"

"The eunuch will be picked up in the next two days. Then he will have nothing to do with us. Di Bin has already been sent away."

Ye Ling nodded: "Okay!"

"Why don't you ask who will take the eunuch away?"

"I don't want to ask, and I don't want to know." Ye Ling looked at the arena and shook his head: "Shrimp soldiers and crab generals!"

About half an hour later, the competition entered its final stage. Fang Shu was defeated after just two moves, and everyone watching shook their heads.

"Cousin, I will avenge you." Qi Yi immediately went on stage, looking very powerful.

The man in the fight was holding a knife. He didn't give Qi Yi any ground at all and knocked the man down in less than ten moves.

Ye Ling and the other two smiled helplessly. Everyone envied Ye Ling and wanted to learn from him, but they overestimated their own abilities.

Qi Yi was very angry and pointed at the people on the stage and cursed: “You must have used some tricks. I can defeat many people in the escort agency.”

The man was speechless: "If you don't have the ability, don't embarrass yourself here. Can't you afford to lose? This is a ring, not your home."

"You..." Qi Yi looked towards the second floor: "Three Sishi, this is not fair."

Ji Ruochen sneered: "What's unfair about it?"

"I am a woman, so I will lose when competing with men."

"Langya Pavilion doesn't accept encumbrances, nor does it need someone as weak as you," Ji Ruochen said with a cold face.

"Mr. Ji, your words are too harsh, aren't they? I am a woman, so I should find a woman to compete with. Find a woman from your Langya Pavilion, and I will definitely defeat her," Qi Yi said mindlessly.

Yue Chi smiled: "The women in our Langya Pavilion are all maids and servants. They don't know martial arts. Qi Yi, do you want to find someone who doesn't know martial arts to compete with?"

"Of course not," Qi Yi said, pointing at Ye Ling: "She, isn't she a woman? I want to fight her."

“Haha…” Everyone burst into laughter.

Everyone expressed their opinions:

"You're really asking for trouble. You dare to challenge the seventh place on the Langya List with your mediocre skills."

"Miss Qi, you should go back and stop embarrassing Qi Yu."

"that is"

Qi Yi was very angry: "Shut up, how do you know you can't beat me if you haven't fought me, Ye Sishi, are you afraid?"

Ye Ling smiled slightly, stood up, and flew gracefully from the second floor to the ring, landing silently.

Qi Yi was obviously scared. Fang Shu whispered, "Cousin, stop it. She can fly. You don't have any Qinggong skills at all. What are you competing with?"

Qi Yi didn't want to embarrass herself, so she went straight to the ring.

Ye Ling said, "I'll just stand still. See if you can hurt me."

"Really? Then don't blame me for being rude." Qi Yi directly stabbed Ye Ling with his sword.

Ye Ling didn't move at all and used his internal energy to knock Qi Yi away.

Qi Yi scrambled to his feet from under the stage in a panic and pointed at Ye Ling: "What kind of magic did you use?"

"Haha..." everyone laughed again.

Fade Chen was speechless: "Qi Yi, you don't even know about internal strength. It's a big joke. And you still come here to compete in the arena?"

Ye Ling easily flew up to the second floor, looked down at the first floor and said, "Everyone wants to learn from me, but they overestimate their own abilities. Qi Yi, you think you are so powerful? But you don't have any internal force at all, and you don't even know what internal force is. And you still dare to claim that you know martial arts?"

"Internal force? What internal force? I..."

"Alright," Ji Ruochen said coldly, "This is Langya Pavilion. No one is playing house with you. Let's continue the competition."

Fang Shu helped Qi Yi sit down: "Cousin, stop making trouble. I told you before that those people in the escort agency were afraid of offending you, so they gave in to you, but you never believed it."

"Those are a bunch of dogs and slaves. When I get back, I will ask my father to drive them all away," Qi Yi said angrily.

Fang Shu sighed helplessly: "Let's go back! Don't stay here anymore."

“It would be too embarrassing to go back now.”

While the two were talking, Yelu Liangzhu came on stage. He slowly drew his sword and fought with the champion with all his strength.

The three people upstairs also witnessed the most exciting competition of the day.

After dozens of moves, Yelu Liangzhu gradually gained the upper hand. Ye Ling muttered softly, "This bastard always says that his martial arts skills are not good. Isn't this a good thing?"

"His martial arts skills are naturally not the best among you," Yue Chi said.

"Okay!" There was a cheer downstairs.

Yelu Liangzhu won and became the first in today's martial arts test.

Fade Chen raised his hand to signal for silence, and then said, "Today's martial arts test is over. Three envoys, if there are anyone you are interested in who didn't make it, please let us know. Or if there are anyone who has skills that you think are good enough, you can stay."

Qi Yi quickly looked towards the second floor with anticipation.

The three people upstairs were silent, and Qi Yi was directly displeased: “What do you mean, we have people here who have photographic memories.”

Ji Ruochen was intimidating without being angry. "Qi Yi, let me say it again. This is not the place for you to cause trouble. There are many people with photographic memories in my Langya Pavilion. They are not rare. Besides, who stays and who leaves is up to me. You have no right to dictate things here. Don't take yourself too seriously. Chen Fei, read the announcement."

"Yes," Chen said loudly after taking the list sent down from the second floor. "Three people are staying here today: Chu Liang, Zhang Tao, and Shi Xiangnan. The rest of you can go home. The mountain roads have been difficult to travel these past two days, so you can wait for these two to leave. But as usual, don't move around while you're in Langya Pavilion. If something goes wrong, no one will be held responsible. These three will stay, and the rest of you can go."

Everyone sighed helplessly and left the door one after another. The three people left behind were excited, as they had finally stood out from the fifty people.

Chen Fei continued, "Three Sishi, do you want any of these three people? If not, Tianzitang will assign them directly."

Yelu Liangzhu looked up at Ye Ling with anticipation.

Ye Ling smiled and said, "I plan to keep Chu Liang here and let him do the clerk work temporarily. He won't have to go on any missions."

"I don't have any vacancies to fill," Yue Chi said.

"Okay." Chen Fei took out three badges. "Chu Liang, this is the Renzi Hall badge. Zhang Tao and Shi Xiangnan, this is the training camp badge. Today you can go to your respective halls to familiarize yourself with the environment. Tomorrow morning you must go to the training camp. For three months, you must go to the training camp every morning and familiarize yourself with your halls in the afternoon. I have reviewed the Langya Pavilion Discipline Manual. Newcomers are not allowed to leave the mountain gate for three years. Any communication with the outside world must be reviewed and approved by their superiors. I hope you three will abide by this. If you violate it in the slightest, you will be expelled from the mountain gate immediately."

"Yes" the three said in unison.

"In addition, the badges you hold now can only be used in your own hall. You cannot enter other halls, and you cannot leave the mountain gate. Do you understand?" Chen Fei asked.

"I understand"

"Very good, you can go back to your room and pack your personal belongings. Someone will take you to your own room in the hall."

"Yes." The three of them bowed and left.

Ji Ruochen looked at Ye Ling: "Wenshu? What do you think? His martial arts skills are pretty good."

"You can't leave the mountain for three years, right? Let him work as a clerk first. Cai Yang has complained to me twice, saying that there is no one to do the clerical work and he can't handle it alone," Ye Ling replied.

"I remember you are short of a captain. This person must be selected from those with more than five years of service. Don't dare to use a new one," Yue Chi reminded.

"I'm not stupid, don't worry. By the way, who do you think is suitable? I've only been here for a few days. Zhuang Qianshi also mentioned this to me, and Cai Yang has mentioned it more than once, but they didn't recommend anyone." Ye Ling also had a headache.

"I'll think about it later and give you a recommendation," said Ji Ruochen.

Ye Ling bowed and said, "Thank you so much, Envoy Ji."

Ji Ruochen smiled and said, "Do you have time tonight? Let's have a drink together."

"I have time. I'm the most idle person in Renzitang. Where can I drink?"

"Let's go to the Dizi Hall! It's in the middle, and we're about the same distance apart."

"Okay! I'll prepare it in advance." Yue Chi was happy to do so.

"It's decided. I won't go home until I'm drunk." Ye Ling stood up and said, "Let's go back."

The three of them left the arena yard talking and laughing. It was almost evening now.
