The top-level junior sister also wants to act weak today

Jiang Yingxue turned around suddenly, and the scene in front of her made her heart tighten.

I saw a group of shadow pythons quietly and stealthily approaching Senluo Qinghe's egg nest.

These shadow pythons were clearly much smaller than the one they had encountered previously, and their rank was significantly lower, judging by their size, they were probably only rank three. However, their sheer number was truly staggering—there were a full five or six of them!

Their scales shone darkly in the sunlight, and their bodies swam along the ground like ghosts, almost blending in with the surrounding vegetation. From time to time, they emitted a hissing sound that made one's scalp tingle.

"Oh no, they probably came to steal the eggs while Qinghe is away. If the eggs were with us, we would still have hope of signing a contract with Senluo Qinghe. If the eggs are gone, they might really fight us to the death. Hurry, build a protective shield for the egg nest!" Jiang Yingxue urged, her eyes fixed on the Shadow Python, holding the hilt of the sword, ready to attack at any time.

Seeing that the group of shadow pythons were getting closer and closer, Chu Ying quickly cast a spell. The vines rose from the ground like living things and instantly intertwined into a web above the egg nest, forming a solid protective shield.

The lush green vines shimmered in the sunlight, like a natural barrier. Their branches and leaves intertwined tightly, without any gaps, firmly protecting the egg nest.

The shadow pythons were stunned for a moment. How could the delicious food that was just before their eyes suddenly be covered up? They quickly climbed up the vines, trying to find a gap to get in.

Chu Ying, watching the swarm of writhing snakes on the protective shield, was sweating for herself. She kept exerting her magic power, fearing that the snakes would pry open the shield.

"What should I do, Yingxue? Those Phantom Pythons don't seem to be giving up. I used up a lot of my spiritual energy just now when dealing with that big Phantom Python. Now I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on for long."

Admittedly, Jiang Yingxue could have just picked up her sword and chopped down the snakes to eliminate any further trouble. But...

She looked up at the Chasing Spirit Pearl above her. She had just shown off her skills when she killed the fifth-level Shadow Python. If she continued to chop these snakes now, how would she maintain her image as a weak and unable person?

Thinking of this, Jiang Yingxue hurried over to Chu Ying and patted her on the back: "It's okay, you'll definitely be able to hold on with your talent. You've already added a protective shield to the egg nest, so you've done a good job of defending it. Now it's time to attack. Try extending a few more vines to attack those snakes."

Chu Ying curled her lips: "But I don't have enough spiritual power——"

She was about to complain when she found that a large amount of spiritual power suddenly surged out of her body, continuously...

"Strange, it seems enough...but this shouldn't be the case?"

Jiang Yingxue channeled her spiritual energy towards Chu Ying while encouraging her, "I knew you could do it! Don't hesitate, attack quickly. You can still get points by killing these shadow pythons."

"Okay." Hearing Jiang Yingxue's words of encouragement, Chu Ying's eyes instantly became firm, and fighting spirit ignited in her heart.

She immediately formed hand seals, and several vibrant vines extended from the protective shield, rushing forward like sharp arrows, quickly wrapping around the still twisting shadow pythons.

Those shadow pythons were surrounded by the sudden vines, and they twisted their bodies in panic and ran towards the two of them.

"Encircle from above"

"Transformation"

"Watch out to the left, add another vine to block their path!"

"Increase the force and strangle!"

Jiang Yingxue hid behind Chu Ying, injecting spiritual power into Chu Ying while systematically directing her to attack in her ear. Her voice was not loud, but loud enough for Chu Ying to hear, and loud enough for the examiners in the examination room not to hear.

It is no exaggeration to say that Chu Ying dealt a fatal blow to the group of shadow pythons almost every time she attacked, leaving everyone in the observation room stunned.

"This operation, this prediction, this hit rate... Oh my god, this student is a genius."

"Such a good seedling, it would be a waste to send it to the First Peak! No, you must come to my Third Peak!"

"What are you talking about? They clearly chose us as the physical cultivators in the first place. It is most suitable for her to come to our physical cultivators!"

Wan Jinan saw everyone praising his prospective disciple and felt very proud. "Alright, alright, don't worry. She will definitely come to our First Peak. Don't worry."

Shen Qingyu, the head of the Fourth Peak, was very dissatisfied. She stood up and slammed her hand on the table. "I don't understand. She clearly chose us as her first choice, so why did she choose the First Peak? Who is actually on the First Peak?"

As soon as the words fell, everyone's eyes focused on Jiang Yingxue in the crystal ball. Shen Qingyu opened her mouth for a long moment before saying, "No way... I was wondering why you made an exception and accepted a weak little girl as your inner sect disciple, and even lied to us that Yan Chuan knelt in the rain and begged you to accept her as your disciple. So, accepting Jiang Yingxue as your disciple was just bait, and your real intention was Chu Ying? Wan Jinan, you're really calculating! Just to compete with me, you're not afraid to accept another useless inner sect disciple?"

Wan Jinan smiled and scratched his neck: "Look at what you said, don't say Yingxue is useless. When you enter my sect, I will treat everyone equally. Besides, I haven't accepted any inner disciples for a long time. You all have students all over the world. I just want to snatch one from you this time. Why are you so stingy..."

"You!" Shen Qingyu was shaking with anger, pointing at Wan Jinan and cursing, "You are still so self-righteous!?"

"It's just a trick. There's no other way. We are poor on the First Peak, so we have to find another way."

Shen Qingyu was so angry that he couldn't speak, so he had to sit back in his seat.

Elsewhere, Chu Ying, under Jiang Yingxue's command, successfully killed several third-tier phantom pythons. At this moment, several Senluo Green Cranes suddenly appeared, circling gracefully in the azure sky.

The cranes' feathers shimmered like emerald gems in the sun, creating a dazzling luster, like a work of art woven from the heavens and earth. Their broad, graceful wings fluttered gracefully, stirring up a gentle breeze that seemed to add a touch of spirit to the surrounding scenery.

Chu Ying looked up at them and exclaimed in admiration from the bottom of her heart: "Oh my God, they are so beautiful."

The next moment, the Senluo Blue Cranes gracefully descended, their graceful figures like falling petals, slowly landing beside the nest of eggs. They approached cautiously, their eyes fixed on the scattered corpses of the Shadow Pythons, appearing extremely nervous. When they saw that the eggs in the nest were still intact, they finally breathed a sigh of relief, letting out a soft, melodious chirp.

One of the Senluo Green Cranes walked directly towards the two of them. "Did you kill these Phantom Pythons? You were the ones who just protected my child?"

The Senluo Qinghe who was speaking was a male Qinghe. His voice was deep and magnetic, and he startled Chu Ying the moment he opened his mouth.

She's so beautiful, and she's actually a male!? I don't want to form a bond with a male monster...
