A Useless Person's Rise to Power: The Demon King's Addiction to Pampering

"She's still too young. Besides, I remember she's only just started cultivating. If she wants to stand out in a competition full of experts, isn't she still a bit too inexperienced?"

The woman smiled and denied it to Ji Yu.

Ji Yu shook his head: "You don't know her talent. Her talent is really terrifying. She always comprehends things the fastest and her strength increases the most. It's just that I don't know why she's always stuck at a bottleneck and can't break through. Otherwise, her strength would definitely not be what it is now."

"Besides, the fact that she was able to find someone to fight her and gain that person's special treatment speaks volumes about her abilities..."

For a moment, all the mentors fell silent.

Indeed, in all these years, Feng Jiutian is the first person to receive such special treatment from that person.

Feng Jiutian was completely unaware that she had become a hot topic of discussion among the mentors.

Walking down the street again, she couldn't help but feel secretly glad that she had disappeared for two months. All those people who had challenged her two months ago had finally calmed down and were no longer following her everywhere.

Feng Jiutian was wandering aimlessly when several beautiful women walked towards him.

Feng Jiutian watched coldly, inwardly sighing.

It’s really a narrow road between enemies.

These women are the senior students from last time.

Liu Ying, dressed in a dashing outfit, looked at the petite Feng Jiutian and said disdainfully, "I haven't seen you for two months, and your strength is still the same. It's a shame they still call you a genius."

"What's the matter?"

Feng Jiutian asked calmly, his eyes showing no anger whatsoever.

Getting angry at strangers is a waste of your emotions.

Seeing Feng Jiutian's attitude, Liu Ying's eyes blazed with anger, but remembering her mentor's words, she forced herself to say, "The elite selection competition is coming soon, so don't forget our challenge."

Feng Jiutian smiled knowingly.

I've seen people rushing to their deaths, but I've never seen anyone so eager to die.

Since I've just improved my skills, this is a good opportunity to practice.

"Don't block the way if you have nothing to do." Feng Jiutian uttered a few words with cold eyes, his gaze as icy as a thousand-foot glacier.

Liu Ying was startled and instinctively stepped aside.

After Feng Jiutian had walked away, Liu Yingcai finally realized what was happening, spat, and glared angrily at Feng Jiutian's retreating figure.

Feng Jiutian slowly walked forward, continuing to clear her mind.

After immersing himself in cultivation for several months, he couldn't help but feel a little restless.

Sensing this subtle emotion, Feng Jiutian simply withdrew his spiritual power and left.

She is now showing signs of breaking through to her peak, with her spiritual energy saturated, but she is still just waiting for the right opportunity.

You won't get this opportunity by practicing indoors, so you might as well come out and relax.

Xuanjizi looked at Feng Jiutian with some worry.

Reaching the peak of the master level in just two months is undeniably impressive talent. However, advancing too quickly can easily lead to a loss of composure, which could negatively impact future development.

This is what Xuanjizi is most worried about right now.

Feng Jiutian has reached a bottleneck, which is more of a test of her mental state, and she can only leave it to fate.

Of course, Xuanji Zi did not tell Feng Jiutian these things.

Feng Jiutian casually sat under the willow tree, quietly watching the calm lake surface.

I don't know how long it's been since I've sat in a place this comfortably.

In his previous life, he was busy killing and missions. In this life, he was reborn as a human and was busy with revenge, getting stronger, and becoming more powerful to protect himself. He has never been able to sit down and have a moment of peace.

A figure quietly appeared behind Feng Jiutian.

Feng Jiutian didn't even turn her head: "I hope you stand in front of me, otherwise I can't guarantee I won't be unable to resist taking action."

Yun couldn't help but give a bitter smile.

"You're really alert."

Yun sat down next to Feng Jiutian without hesitation, only to be met with a glare from Feng Jiutian.

Feng Jiutian stared silently at the lake, not uttering a single word.

The sun was shining warmly on her, making her feel very comfortable.

But the clouds on the side see it differently.

The warm sunlight shone on Feng Jiutian, but her face was unusually cold. Her hands seemed casual, but in reality, they were extremely alert, ready to strike a fatal blow at any moment.

Isn't it tiring to live like this?

Even though I was thoroughly enjoying this moment of comfort, I still forced myself to maintain the ideal state, just for the sake of avoiding any potential danger.

“It’s safe here, no one will dare to attack us,” Yun couldn’t help but say.

Feng Jiutian raised his eyes, his gaze unusually cold yet clear.

“I only believe in myself.”

Yun heard her say this in a cool, clear voice.

After a long silence, Yun was speechless for a moment. She pursed her lips before remembering the purpose of her visit.

"The academy's elite selection competition is in three days, and I hope you will participate."

Feng Jiutian frowned deeply.

You'd better give me a reason.

Yun paused, her gaze as calm as Feng Jiutian's.

"There's no reason; it's the mentor's order."

Feng Jiutian's expression hardened, and he said nothing more, though his expression was not good.

Yun smiled awkwardly and stopped talking, not daring to provoke Feng Jiutian any further.

He knew that the woman was definitely angry after what he had just said.

However, if he didn't say so, she might not go, which was not the kind of situation Yun wanted to see.

After all, he couldn't bear to part with a genius like Feng Jiutian.

After an unknown amount of time, Yun quietly left, leaving Feng Jiutian alone.

"Are you really planning to participate in the competition?" Xuanji Zi asked silently in her heart.

After all, the Feng Jiutian he knew was not someone who would be easily subdued.

Feng Jiutian hummed in agreement: "He helped me before, so this is my way of repaying him."

When they were capturing the demon, Feng Jiutian's words were full of loopholes; it was just that Yun didn't mention much.

Given his status, if he were to bring it up, Feng Jiutian would definitely not be able to keep it from Mo Shaoxie.

Furthermore, Yun's constant care for Feng Jiutian was something Feng Jiutian didn't express gratitude to outwardly, but she actually remembered it all.

Now that the topic has been raised, she might as well participate. After all, for her, the competition is just a way to hone her combat skills.

Not long after, Feng Jiutian stood up and went back to the pavilion.

What she didn't know was that Yun had been watching her from a distance, his eyes filled with complex emotions.

The elite selection competition has been in full swing, with news coming out from time to time.

Feng Jiutian sat in her seat in the mage class, lost in thought. Her deskmate was very talkative: "Hey Feng Jiutian, do you know what? I heard recently that some people have been favored by the instructors. They say their chances of winning are super high, and the rewards this time are said to be extremely generous..."

My deskmate quickly rattled off a few names, then said somewhat hesitantly, "They all seem to be senior students; there are only a handful among the freshmen."
