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

.........

Ye Yueyue entered the Pill Alliance, glanced around, and noticed two people standing in front of her. She stepped forward with a smile and asked, "Excuse me, is this the location for the alchemist assessment?"

"Then," the Danmeng disciple said without even lifting his eyelids, pointing to a room on the left.

"Okay, thank you." Ye Yueyue looked in the direction he pointed.

She saw that the door was open and went straight in.

Upon entering, Ye Yueyue found the space to be very spacious, with a large number of disciples inside. Most of them looked tense, and there was a table in front of them, which they were flipping through.

Ye Yueyue glanced at it and then looked away; the table was covered with spiritual plants.

"What should I do? This is so difficult."

"I'm going to fail the assessment again this year, sigh."

"Me too. If I fail again, my dad won't let me refine pills anymore. He says I'm wasting his spirit stones every day. I've been practicing for two years and haven't achieved anything."

Ye Yueyue looked up and saw a plump-looking young man in the crowd with an honest face, whispering to the person next to him.

After saying that, he added, "I really don't understand. My dad only has one son, me. If he doesn't let me have fun, who else can he give it to?"

He scratched his head, looking puzzled.

That makes sense, Ye Yueyue couldn't help but nod in agreement.

"How many times have you come here? This is my first time."

"Three times, I guess."

After hearing a bit of gossip, Ye Yueyue looked around and saw a dignified middle-aged man sitting at the top of the room.

His sharp eyes swept over the crowd, and his aura of authority was so imposing that the disciples who were whispering among themselves fell silent after just one glance from him.

The room finally quieted down.

Apart from those waiting like her, the remaining disciples were undergoing assessments, their hands rummaging through the spiritual plants on the table, their faces showing conflicted expressions.

Ye Yueyue only partially understood what she was seeing, but she didn't care.

We'll know in no time.

Anyway, she was certain of getting first rank. More than the test questions, she was more concerned about the reward.

Ye Yueyue wouldn't have come if her purpose in coming was to receive a reward.

Wouldn't it be better for her to use this time to refine two bottles of pills and then cultivate for a while?

The assessment was over quickly, and with a ringing sound, a waiter came down and checked each of them.

The atmosphere became heavy.

As the waiter scanned the room expressionlessly, some people began to whisper nervously.

"Ahhh, I'm so nervous, what should I do, what should I do..."

The people around him comforted him, "It's okay, come again next year."

"Hey, this is the only way."

The waiter walked around and returned to the front. He looked at the crowd, pointed at a few people, and said calmly, "You, you, and the rest of you, move on to the next round."

Those who were pointed at showed joy on their faces and became excited.

"I've made it to the second round!"

"Me too! I didn't expect to make it in, hahaha, this is my first time taking the assessment."

Those who weren't called upon looked expectantly at the waiter, but he remained calm and announced the end of the assessment.

"next batch."

As he finished speaking, the last glimmer of hope vanished.

The others who were not selected hung their heads dejectedly and walked out of the examination hall in loneliness.

Ye Yueyue sensed that the people around her were moving. She followed the crowd to the center of the main hall, and her gaze inadvertently swept over a pretty young woman.

Ye Yueyue's eyes lit up, and she naturally sat down next to her, even waving hello.

Hello, little sister.

She was taken aback for a moment upon hearing this, and a flash of amazement crossed her eyes the instant she saw Ye Yueyue. Then, she smiled and said, "Hello."

Ye Yueyue saw the other person mimicking her movements and waved back at her.

Seeing this, she couldn't help but smile.

She seems to be a cute little sister.

Ye Yueyue leaned closer, looked up at her, and asked teasingly:

"My name is Ye Yueyue. What's yours? Can we get to know each other, little sister? This is my first time taking the exam. Will it be difficult?"

Qu Qian'er's cheeks were slightly flushed, and she said in a soft voice, "Of course you can. My name is Qu Qian'er, you can just call me Qian'er."

"This is my first time taking the assessment!"

Ye Yueyue nodded knowingly, "Then let's go together!"

"Yeah."

Qu Qian'er's gaze swept over her, lingering on that bright face for a second before turning her head away and smiling.

While the two were talking, everyone had already taken their seats.

The middle-aged man on the stage glanced calmly at the crowd and said, "Let's begin."

The waiter nodded in acknowledgment and stood up.

Before long, everyone's table was filled with spiritual plants.

Ye Yueyue glanced at it and saw all sorts of spiritual plants, poisonous plants, and weeds mixed in.

What is this for?

"Those who select all the spiritual plants within a quarter of an hour will advance to the next round," announced the attendant standing above the main hall.

???

Ye Yueyue was completely bewildered. Was it really that simple?

She turned to look at the others around her. At the waiter's command, people had already begun to pick through their food, and their expressions were all serious.

Most of them also had a sense of unease.

Ye Yueyue turned her gaze to Qu Qian'er, who was also carefully selecting spiritual plants. Her round face was filled with a serious expression, creating a striking contrast.

Seemingly noticing her gaze, Qu Qian'er looked over with a puzzled expression. Ye Yueyue smiled at her and began to focus her attention on the table in front of her.

The table, neither too big nor too small, was covered with all sorts of spiritual plants and herbs. At a glance, there were at least a hundred of them. They all looked pretty much the same, so it was quite difficult to sort them out in the limited time available.

However, Ye Yueyue has a photographic memory. If this had been tested when she first started, it would have been a considerable challenge. But now she has been refining pills for more than half a year.

When Ye Yueyue first encountered alchemy, she had already read through the complete guide to spiritual plants in the cultivation world.

Moreover, the question only requires selecting spiritual plants, not sorting them into all categories.

It feels like a max-level player returning to the starting village, with no rivals.

Ye Yueyue sorted all the spiritual plants in a short while, and then, feeling somewhat bored, she began to look around the center of the main hall.

After looking around, he focused his attention on Qu Qian'er.

She noticed that Qu Qian'er was also quite fast. Although her expression was slightly serious, she was very confident in her moves. Ye Yueyue only watched for a while before she was certain that Qu Qian'er had the upper hand in this round.

Sure enough, before half the time had passed, she had already selected all the spiritual plants. Qu Qian'er nodded and gave a self-affirming smile.

That pretty, round face had a proud and smug look on it, which was quite endearing.

Ye Yueyue, who had been observing all along, clutched her chest and couldn't help but whisper, "Qian'er baby, you're so cute!"

"what?"

Qu Qian'er looked up in confusion, and after hearing Ye Yueyue's words clearly, she stammered and blushed, "No, no."

"Youdu, it looks like we can team up again in the next round."

Upon hearing this, Qu Qian'er also glanced at the spiritual plants on Ye Yueyue's table, which were all neatly arranged in a basket.

She nodded emphatically, her eyes filled with a smile: "Yes!"
