When Yun Yici returned to Wangchen Peak to report to Wen Fuyue, he had already disappeared into the clouds.

When she returned to her residence, she discovered that the bed she had made for the baby rabbit and the blanket he had slept in were also gone.

Yun Yici sighed and said, "Let him go if he wants to. Why does he act like a bandit and not forget to take his things with him? As if he's afraid I won't be able to guess who he is."

Although she claimed it was from Muyun, she actually bought it all with spirit stones.

The system replied, "Host, although the item was taken away, Mu Yunjian's favorability has increased back. Favorability is priceless."

Moreover, Yun Yici wouldn't need those small beds and blankets.

Yun Yici: "How much is it now?"

System: "Mu Yunjian's favorability increased by 10 points."

It means returning to the level before the tragedy of her dumping him happened.

The system then said, "Congratulations, host, your luck value has returned to 18 points."

However, I can't feel happy at all.

She cast a cleaning spell on the room and then went straight to bed.

When Yun Yici was awakened by the system, she opened her eyes again and it was the day of the selection.

When Yun Yici arrived at the large square outside the academy after preparing everything, he saw that the disciples from all the peaks were gathered in an orderly manner.

She looked into the distance and easily spotted Rong Xuan and his two companions among the crowd of disciples.

In fact, with the three of them at the center, the nearby disciples consciously made way for a circular open space.

The three people in the center of the field stood facing each other at a distance, forming a triangle.

Today, Rong Xuan was wearing the scarlet robe he had worn when he accompanied her to the market. He was dazzling and captivating. He had a smile on his face, seemingly looking at his two junior brothers with tolerance, but the smile did not reach his eyes.

Ning Tinglan, who was usually a considerate and kind senior brother to her, was now cold and aloof, looking at the other two with a hint of wariness in his eyes.

The person next to her had white hair and crimson eyes, dressed in white with an unparalleled beauty, and stared at her almost the instant she appeared.

Yun Yici felt a chill run down her spine from his gaze, but she had no choice but to hastily land on her sword in front of the three of them.

Her arrival completely broke the deadlock between the three of them.

"I'm late, I've kept you waiting, my three senior brothers."

She truly never imagined that one day she would face such a hellish start.

Rong Xuan spoke first: "It's alright, we just arrived. Master, the sect leader, and the other peak masters are in the main hall. They should be coming out to announce the selection method soon."

Mu Yunjian curled her lips and said, "I didn't know that Junior Sister had such great influence that she could even get Senior Brother to come."

That day, he simply made up an excuse to send Yun Yici away, never expecting that Rong Xuan would agree to participate in the disciple selection.

That's good, it makes things even more interesting.

Ning Tinglan's expression was solemn as she warned Rong Xuan and Mu Yunjian, "The entire selection process for this disciple will be open to the public. Do not do anything foolish that would bring shame to the Hongchen lineage."

For example, they sabotage each other and engage in infighting in front of the sect leader, other peak masters, and even all the disciples of the Nanhua Sect.

Upon hearing this, Mu Yunjian covered her mouth and feigned surprise, saying, "A foolish thing? You mean Junior Brother Ning was spying on Senior Brother Rong while he was washing..."

Before he could finish speaking, two equally sharp and murderous swords were simultaneously pointed at his head.

Yun Yici then realized that Rong Xuan's sword speed was no slower than Ning Tinglan's.

However, since he usually considered himself a weapon cultivator, she had never seen Rong Xuan use a sword, so she overlooked the fact that Rong Xuan might be a dual cultivator of swords and weapons.

Mu Yunjian, facing the dazzling silver-white sword light pointed at him by two swords, chuckled lightly: "Heh, only fools do foolish things."

As soon as he finished speaking, a surge of energy came from above, directly knocking the swords in Rong Xuan and Ning Tinglan's hands off course and downwards.

Shocked by this, Yun Yici subconsciously squinted and waved her sleeve to block the incoming energy.

Fortunately, the visitor was not malicious, and the force dissipated quickly.

The moment she opened her eyes, she clearly heard a familiar and authoritative female voice: "The swords of the Nanhua Sect members should not be pointed at innocent fellow disciples without cause."

“If you need to be taught even this much, you don’t need to be standing here today.”

Yun Yici looked in the direction of the sound and his heart skipped a beat.

Oh no, it's Sect Leader Gu Ruyi.

The scene of their infighting must have been witnessed by the sect leader and the other peak masters.

Does this mean they're going to strip Rong Xuan and Ning Tinglan of their selection qualifications?

Rong Xuan and Ning Tinglan had also thought of this, and their faces turned ugly, wishing they could kill Mu Yunjian on the spot as a sacrifice to the heavens.

Mu Yunjian's face remained innocent and pure, and he even pretended to be afraid, deliberately moving closer to Yun Yici, the only one who hadn't drawn his sword against him.

When the disciples of each peak saw their sect leader and their own peak master appear, they all remained completely silent.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the four members of the Red Dust Clan.

Wen Fuyue was originally at the back, but when she heard the commotion and went closer, she found that it was her own disciple who had caused the trouble.

To prevent Gu Ruyi from saying anything punitive, he spoke first: "Although I don't know what happened just now, the two brothers usually have a good relationship. I suppose they forgot their limits in the midst of their playful fight."

"Today is an important day for selecting outstanding disciples. It would be a loss to delay it for such a trivial matter."

"Don't worry, Sect Leader, I will punish them one by one after the selection is over."

Wen Fuyue laid out the steps, and Rong Xuan and Ning Tinglan naturally and immediately put away their swords and stood still.

Of course, only they themselves know what they are thinking.

Gu Ruyi hesitated for a moment, but ultimately decided not to dwell on the dispute any longer.

"The selection rules for this event are hereby announced. The local trial ground is the Buddha-Demon Tower. The one who climbs to the top of the tower will be the champion. Ten people will be selected from the champion to become the disciples who will participate in the Sword Trial Tournament."

"The top three, including the leader, can try out the sword of the sword immortal Shen Huaichuan. The one with the destiny to obtain the spirit sword will get it. The other selected disciples can go to the ninth floor of the treasure pavilion to choose their favorite items."

As she spoke, Yun Yici keenly noticed that the breathing of the nearby disciples became heavier.

However, this is also good news for her.

Firstly, the tower climbing event is an individual battle, so there's no need to team up with Rong Xuan, Mu Yunjian, or others.

Although losing Ning Tinglan, a reliable partner, is a bit of a pity, it also means that she doesn't have to worry about the three of them being at odds and causing any trouble.

Secondly, all three of the champions can try Shen Huaichuan's sword, so even if she doesn't get first place, she still has a chance to stay in the top three.

Yun Yici felt much more at ease; she still had one more chance to win a prize.

I thought I would have to use up my chance in this trial, but now I can save it up and use it when my luck value is higher.

At this moment, Gu Ruyi said again: "The Buddha-Demon Tower has twelve sides and an infinite number of layers. The higher you go, the more difficult it becomes. Now, we will randomly select disciples from all peaks to enter the tower, seven people per side."

As soon as she finished speaking, she waved her sleeve and summoned a blurry, magnificent black tower that floated above the Nanhua Sect.

Yun Yici looked up and saw only darkness. The next moment, her consciousness was lightly drawn into the tower.
