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

Early the next morning.

On the plaza of the main peak of the Xuanling Sect.

The crowd was noisy. As soon as Ye Yueyue entered, she heard people discussing among themselves. Disciples from all the peaks had come to the main peak. Today was the day of the inner disciples' competition.

In the center of the square was a huge open space. The stage was empty at the moment, and no one was competing yet. In front of the stage was a very large audience area where the peak masters and their disciples were seated.

The seat in the very center was empty, which, judging from the positions, meant that the sect leader had not yet arrived.

So the competition didn't even start.

Ye Yueyue thought for a moment and then figured it out. If she were the sect leader, she would have to be the last to appear, to give her a more prestigious air.

She curiously scanned the stands and spotted Jian Youqing and Ning Shuang. She smiled and waved to them before heading towards the Sword Peak area.

Before I even got close, I saw that eye-catching figure.

In the audience seats of Jianfeng, sat a man of refined elegance. He was dressed in white, his extraordinary demeanor making him stand out in the crowd.

It was even more stunning than the fleeting glimpse I had that night.

[A contractable player, Yue Du, has been discovered!!!]

Huanling Sha's voice rang in her mind, interrupting Ye Yueyue's thoughts. She said to herself, "I understand."

Ye Yueyue's steps became much lighter, and she sat directly down in the seat below Yue Feichen, next to Yue Du.

This position is second only to the Sword Peak Master, and it also has the best view. You can see the entire arena and the densely packed disciples at a glance.

"Greetings, Master! Greetings, Senior Brother!" Ye Yueyue greeted them with a smile.

Yue Feichen glanced at her indifferently and nodded in acknowledgment.

Today, he was dressed in a black robe, his face solemn, and he exuded an air of majesty. He was completely different from the way he ate and drank in Wangyue Garden. Ye Yueyue felt unfamiliar but also understood. After all, they were outside, and he had to put on an act. How could the Sword Peak Master not put on an act?

Sword Peak has the largest number of disciples in the Xuanling Sect, so it can be considered the main peak. Since the vast majority of disciples in the Xuanling Sect are sword cultivators, Yue Feichen's status in the Xuanling Sect is second only to the sect leader.

"How is Junior Sister Yue?" Yue Du asked gently.

His features were gentle and kind, his eyes were calm and serene, and a faint smile played on his lips, giving people a feeling of being bathed in a spring breeze.

It was just an ordinary word of comfort, but the way he said "Junior Sister Yue," a phrase Ye Yueyue had heard countless times, sounded strangely more beautiful.

Ye Yueyue enjoyed this kind of care, especially the care from handsome men.

"Oh no, this is too hard! I'm going to jail today!"

Upon hearing this, a smile flickered across Yue Du's eyes. "You've only been a disciple for a little over a year. It's still early. There's no need to worry about winning or losing today."

That's what they say, but the top 100 get spirit stones, so how could she just watch them fly away?

Senior brother, you have no idea about the hardships of life. I really hope that one day she can also live such a life of indifference to fame and fortune. Only when people have money will they stop thinking about money.

She sighed and stopped talking about the topic, instead starting a conversation with Yue Du about other things.

"Senior Brother Yue, when are you going on stage?"

The number one in Sword Peak must be very powerful, right? I wonder what level of cultivation they are now. It is said that they went out to train for a year after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage and just returned. Ye Yueyue used her divine sense to investigate, but she could not find anyone with a higher cultivation level than herself.

I still want to observe.

"There will be no Sword Peak competition today; it will be three days from now."

Ye Yueyue: "Then I'll come to watch Senior Brother Yue's match in three days!"

Yue Du looked up and found that the girl's eyes were full of curiosity, and she was looking at him directly.

What are you curious about?

Yue Du didn't understand at first, but he didn't care too much and nodded with a gentle smile, "Okay."

The clear, melodious voice lingered in her ears, and Ye Yueyue felt the tension of the competition dissipate considerably.

Standing beside the Moon Crossing, you can almost feel a gentle breeze blowing by, a comfort that makes you relax unconsciously.

Ye Yueyue rested her chin on her hands, gazing intently at Yue Du. She liked men with pleasant voices.

"what happened?"

"Senior Brother Yue, you have leaves on your head!" Ye Yueyue pinched him without changing her expression.

Seeing that he paused for a moment, Ye Yueyue directly reached out and brushed his hair, which had nothing on it, like Yue Du.

"Okay!"

Yue Du only felt a soft touch brush against his hair, carrying a trace of warmth, which quickly disappeared without a trace.

He gave a soft "hmm" and didn't say anything more.

Ye Yueyue sighed inwardly, wondering when she would be able to kiss Yue Du. She truly loved her senior brother.

Yue Du is the most exceptional man she has met in her twenty-two years, bar none.

"coming!"

As several exclamations subsided, Ye Yueyue looked up.

A figure strode down from the sky and arrived in a few breaths. He was dressed in a dark black brocade robe with gold thread, his face was dignified, and he exuded an aura of power. His pace was neither fast nor slow, but it was extremely oppressive.

"Master."

The peak masters clasped their hands in a salute.

"No need for formalities, let's begin." The Xuanling Sect Master took the center seat, nodded to everyone, and waved to signal the start of the competition.

The elder sitting to the side stood up and gave the order, "The inner sect competition begins."

As the words fell, the disciples in the audience began to move around. Ye Yueyue looked up and saw that they were disciples from the Weapon Refining Peak.

Ye Yueyue subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

Thank goodness, it's not her turn yet.

"Nervous?" Yue Du asked, raising her eyes with a smile on her lips.

Ye Yueyue immediately followed suit, nodding, "Yes, Senior Brother Yue, could you give me some encouragement?"

"...How can we encourage them?"

"Go, Junior Sister Yue! You're the best, the most amazing!"

Watching the girl's performance, Yue Du felt both amused and helpless.

"It might not work."

"If I don't perform well later, can I ask my senior brother for compensation?" Ye Yueyue glanced at him and asked casually.

Ye Yueyue didn't actually expect him to cheer her on; she just wanted to tease him.

"can."

"Zun Du Fake Du?"

Yue Du hesitated for a moment, then said, "...Really."

Ye Yueyue smiled at him, "Senior Brother Yue is so kind!"

The first to appear was the Weapon Refining Peak. The disciples brought their own exhibits to the stage, their expressions varying from confidence to unease to indifference.

As people gradually entered the arena, hundreds of people were suddenly standing on the huge fighting platform.

The competition is a 100-person event with several rounds.

The competition is different every year, and this year's competition at the Refining Peak focuses on defense.

In other words, the disciples need to forge a protective magical artifact.

An elder stood directly in front of the stage; he was to test the defensive capabilities of the magical artifacts in this round of competition.

The elder took out a bead and set it into a groove on the platform. Immediately, a transparent protective shield rose up from the edge of the arena.

A huge circular dome enveloped the entire arena.
