How could someone as well-behaved as Sister Yue possibly be a playboy?

"I didn't expect it to have this effect. Does that mean I'll be able to charm both men and women? Oh no, I'll charm the entire cultivation world!" Ye Yueyue blurted out, then couldn't help but sigh.

"I'm so capable!"

Huanling Sha paused for a rare moment, then said, "...I guess so."

It had never seen such a narcissistic owner.

……

On this day, Ye Yueyue walked into the Sword Peak training ground and found that the Sword Peak disciples were not practicing their swords as usual, but were talking to each other.

Curious, she moved closer and listened intently.

"Sigh, here we go again. I wonder if I can make it into the top 100 this year," a Sword Peak disciple sighed.

"Be content. You're still dreaming of making it into the top 100, but I wouldn't even dare to dream of it."

"That must be because you haven't tried hard enough."

"If hard work were all it took, what would we need Senior Brother Mu for?" one of the disciples said, pointing to a name in the top 100 of the leaderboard.

The others glanced at it and nodded, "Indeed."

Mu Wenbin was their senior brother from Jianfeng. He only came to practice swordsmanship a handful of times, and when he did come, he would just sleep. Eventually, he stopped coming altogether. However, he consistently ranked among the top 100.

"Oh well, never mind, I can't compete. I'm going to practice my swordsmanship now, and I'll try my best this year!"

"Me too, I want to be in the top 100."

The disciples of Sword Peak rose in twos and threes, ready to fight. However, one of them noticed Ye Yueyue approaching and greeted her, "Good morning, Junior Sister Yue!"

"Good morning, fellow senior brothers and sisters. What are you talking about?" Ye Yueyue asked curiously.

She listened to the explanation in a daze, and although she had a vague idea of ​​what was going on, Ye Yueyue still wanted to know more.

"The annual sect competition is about to begin, and everyone is preparing."

"Sect competition?"

“Yes, Junior Sister Yue, look over there. That’s our Sword Peak’s unique name-carving wall. The names of the top 100 disciples each year are engraved on it.” One of the senior sisters pointed to the stone wall in front of her and explained, her voice filled with obvious envy.

Ye Yueyue looked in the direction she pointed and saw a large stone wall standing directly in front of the Sword Peak Martial Arts Arena, with rows of names carved on it.

However, the most eye-catching name is the first one listed at the very top.

Moon crossing.

Isn't that her senior brother?

Ye Yueyue raised an eyebrow and carefully examined the white jade wall in front of her.

The stone wall was covered with names from top to bottom. The first few names were the largest and most conspicuous, but she only recognized one of them. The names became smaller as they went down, but they were undoubtedly an inspiration.

Isn't this the same as being an outstanding employee? There's even a ranking system for grades in school. I never thought the cultivation world had this kind of system too.

Instead of all this fluff, can't you give us some real spirit stone rewards?

"Does every peak have one? What's the use of it?" Ye Yueyue asked, looking up at her.

"Yes, every peak has one, but the assessments are different. At Sword Peak, the competition is about swordsmanship."

The senior sister explained with a smile, "The top 100 will receive cultivation resources."

Ye Yueyue suddenly realized: "I see."

No wonder it's so popular; there really is a reward!

So, does that mean Danfeng is all about competing in alchemy? Ye Yueyue suddenly had an idea.

Since the top 100 all receive rewards, could she participate in each one and collect them all? She knows three things, including beast taming.

When will the competition begin?

Ye Yueyue was a little curious. She wondered if she could try to get a chance. Actually, whether or not she got a spirit stone wasn't important. The main thing was that she was a little vain and wanted her name to be known throughout the Xuanling Sect.

Although she didn't need to be on the list to become famous in the Xuanling Sect, Ye Yueyue still preferred to conquer her colleagues with her strength.

"A month from now, the outer disciples will compete first, and then it will be our turn," the senior sister said softly.

The outer sect competition? Fortunately, there's still a month left. Ye Yueyue nodded, indicating that she understood.

"Thank you, senior sister! Let's keep going!"

Ye Yueyue gave her an encouraging gesture.

"Alright, Junior Sister Yue too." The senior sister said goodbye with a smile.

After learning more, Ye Yueyue realized that getting into the top 100 wasn't easy, because there were nearly a thousand people in their Sword Peak alone, so there were too many wolves and not enough meat, and the rankings were the same.

Fortunately, the competition wasn't about cultivation level, but rather about understanding swordsmanship.

This offered Ye Yueyue some comfort.

She should still have some hope.

Ye Yueyue then visited each peak. As she had expected, the Pill Peak competed in alchemy, the Talisman Peak in drawing talismans, but only the Beast Peak did not require a competition.

Since the combined number of disciples and elders of Beast Peak is less than a hundred, what are they arguing about? What's there to argue about?

While other peaks were catching up, only Beast Peak remained as calm as a stagnant pool.

When Ye Yueyue stepped into Beast Peak, she found that their expressions were completely unchanging, each doing their own thing. When Ye Yueyue asked about the sect competition, there was still no reaction.

The disciples of Beast Peak gave an "Oh" and then fell silent.

The afternoon sun streamed into the classroom, and everyone's expressions were calm as they chatted about interesting things in their cultivation lives, a scene of tranquility.

Indeed, environment shapes talent.

Choosing the right major means a lifetime of comfort and a promising future.

Ye Yueyue left the classroom in silence.

Since she's already secured one subject, she doesn't want to continue. She'd rather focus on practicing for the other two subjects, concentrate on the exams, and try to get three out of three.

Ye Yueyue walked towards the entrance of Beast Peak, intending to return to Wangyue Garden to consolidate her foundation.

Should we refine elixirs or practice swordsmanship first?

She was so focused on the sect competition that she didn't pay much attention and bumped into someone as she walked.

"Ugh..." Ye Yueyue groaned in pain and took a step back as a result. Just as she was trying to regain her balance, the person grabbed her.

As she struggled to her feet, Ye Yueyue looked up with teary eyes, only to see a familiar figure.

It is Ming Qiuyang.

The boy's tall figure stood before her, shielding her from the blinding light; his eyes held surprise and worry.

Ming Qiuyang frowned and asked, "Little Dwarf... are you alright?"

After recognizing the person, Ye Yueyue rubbed her nose, pouted, and sat down on the ground in a nonchalant manner.

"Something's wrong!!! I can't get up without spirit stones."

Ming Qiuyang: "...!"

He opened his mouth, but no words came out.

Ming Qiuyang paused for a moment, his gaze falling on Ye Yueyue's bright eyes, which were filled with mist, before taking out a bag from his storage ring and handing it to her.

"Okay, then I won't be angry anymore."

Ye Yueyue took the bag, reached out her hand to him, and raised her chin to indicate that she needed help to stand up.

Ming Qiuyang helped her up, feeling both amused and helpless, and muttered under his breath, "It was clearly because you weren't looking where you were going that you bumped into me."

Ye Yueyue rubbed her nose and retorted, "Then why didn't you dodge!"

Seeing the girl's accusing expression and tearful eyes, Ming Qiuyang didn't want to say anything more for the first time. His heart softened for a moment: "Okay."

Why are you being so easy to talk to today?
