“After you’re done, wait for me here, I will come find you.” After saying her goodbyes to Chen Mobai, Shi Jingjing turned to Cao Yaling and told her the same thing. The latter nodded quietly, standing still.

-She doesn’t talk very much. If you get eliminated early, can you wait for her to finish?”

After Shi Jingjing left, she suddenly returned to Chen Mobai’s side, pointed at Cao Yaling, and asked him for a favor.

“Alright.”

Chen Mobai agreed without hesitation.

As the top examinee of Immortal Sect High School no. 5 for this year’s examination, he naturally assumed the role of their team leader.

Looking after his team members was his duty.

Soon, students arrived at the peak in groups of two or three.

Chen Mobai saw his opponent.

The odds website provided by Shi Jingjing had photos and information of everyone. He just needed to look it up once to remember it.

“He has a powerful aura.”

Cao Yaling, who had mysteriously appeared by Chen Mobai’s side, also noticed Qiao Xingwen. She adjusted her glasses, her eyes sparkling with an unreadable light behind the lenses. She seemed to have noticed something and casually pointed it out.

“Didn’t you say you don’t like talking?”

“If she is here, I will not speak.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai looked perplexed as he sized up this refined and quiet female classmate with round glasses.

“Three of his fingers on his right hand have a larger meridian pathway than the other two, indicating he might have been practicing a spell similar to ‘Spirit Pill’” Cao Yaling continued, ignoring Chen Mobai’s reaction. She lifted her right hand, extending her three slender and fair fingers towards Chen Mobai as a demonstration.

“Thanks.”

After a long pause, Chen Mobai finally managed to muster two words in reply to this perplexing classmate.

Although he felt confident facing Qiao Xingwen even without this information, he knew Cao Yaling had good intentions and he could only offer his thanks.

“My ‘Spirit Eye’ technique still needs improvement. I could only see so much.” “That’s more than enough, your ‘Spirit Eye’ appears to be same technique practiced by Shi Jingjing,” Chen Mobai pointed out.

“Yes, my master is also her father. Our Spirit Root Attributes are quite similar, so we practice the same Cultivation Technique.”

“Between the two of you, whose ‘Spirit Eye’ is more formidable?”

Cao Yaling hesitated for a moment then shook her head without giving a direct answer.

Nonetheless, Chen Mobai knew the answer. It would seem that Cao Yaling might be even more formidable, rendering her as the most capable among the female students in Immortal Sect High School no. 5.

-Now, will the two students whose names I call please come up to the stage.” just then, a cultivator dressed in Cinnabarite Institute’s teacher uniform flew to the centre of the newly erected stone platform atop the summit. With a list of today’s matches in hand, he only spoke softly but his voice clearly reached the ears of all the students and spectators present on the summit.

“I’m going up now. Remember, stay here,” Chen Mobai rose from the long bench. The first round of the competition was between him and Qiao Xingwen.

His initial plan was to finish his fight quickly because he had promised to show around Chan Sze and Shen Juanxiu around the Cinnabarite Institute yesterday and take them to lunch as a form of gratitude.

However, since he promised Shi Jingjing to keep an eye on Cao Yaling, he wouldn’t break his word. Moreover, Chen Sze and Shen Juanxiu hadn’t arrived yet.

What a pity they won’t get to see him swiftly deal with his opponent.

“Chen Mobai from High School no. 5-”

“Qiao Xingwen from High School no. 3.”

Just then, the Cinnabarite Institute teacher on the platform called out the names of the two competitors.

Both of them immediately made their way to the stage with the Propulsion Technique and exchanged glances.

■■There are no issues with the rules, right? Only the use of spells and talismans of the prescribed grade and quantity are allowed.”

After the referee teacher finished speaking, Chen Mobai and Qiao Xingwen nodded. The latter had a square face and a crew cut, with a tall, lean figure and a robust air. From his outward appearance, he appeared to be highly formidable.

“A Qi Cultivation Level 7 against a Qi Cultivation Level 6, completely one-sided.”

“I’d rather say it’s a gift match, the first round is just to warm things up,” some students were whispering to each other.

“Today, among all the students on this stage, Qiao Xingwen’s abilities probably rank in the top five.”

“I’m just glad I wasn’t picked, an automatic win for Qiao Xingwen.”

The chatter around him made Qiao Xingwen, who was even disciplined in the military, break out in a smile.

Today, he was the protagonist.

He extended his thumb and little finger of his right hand and, according to the strategy he had already planned, he would first test the efficiency of his opponent’s talismans with his two weakest Spirit Pills. Once the opponent’s strategies were exposed, he intended to finish them off with his three strongest Spirit Pills.

This first round’s opponent, a mere Qi Cultivation Level 6, possibly wouldn’t even make him use his talismans.

A confident Qiao Xingwen made his move.

One minute later.

Everyone below the stage had their mouths wide open, disbelief evident on their faces.

Just like that?

Has he actually been trained in the army?

Chen Mobai looked at his unconscious opponent, shook his head, and then turned to the referee teacher who had just descended from the platform and was about to take a drink of water.

“Hmm, for the first round, Chen Mobai wins.”

The teacher flew back up onto the stage and confirmed that Qiao Xingwen had indeed lost his capacity to fight and was unconscious, quickly announcing the result.

After paying respect to the teacher, Chen Mobai descended from the stage, ignored the shocked gazes of dozens of onlookers, and calmly returned to his previous spot on the long stone bench.

Cao Yaling, being a good girl, had followed his instructions to not move from her spot.

Of course, it was mainly because Chen Mobai was too quick.

“You…”

Her mouth slightly ajar, Cao Yaling wanted to say something but didn’t know how to start.

“If I’m not mistaken, you’re in the third match. It’s going to start soon. Did you observe your opponent? If your Spirit Eye picked up on anything, I can probably help design a strategy since I have some proficiency with magic duels,” Chen Mobai, considering himself as the team leader, felt it was essential to not only look after his classmates in between matches but also offer his knowledge and experience from the Tianhe Realm.

“No need. My opponent is an average person with Qi Cultivation Level-6.1 have a 98% chance of winning,” Cao Yaling adjusted her glasses and glanced at a male student with a bowl-cut nearby. Her tone was calm but infused with confidence.

“Alright then, I hope that all of us from our school can progress to the next round in the first round itself. That’s the only way we can do justice to the institution that nurtured us,” Chen Mobai’s words made Cao Yaling roll her eyes involuntarily.

This guy is too formal for his age. Where did he learn these bureaucratic words from?

Half an hour later, Shi Jingjing rushed over.

“Why are you so late? I have something to do in the morning,” Chen Mobai wasn’t too pleased with Shi Jingjing’s tardiness.

“You were eliminated quickly, of course. My opponent had a set of Tortoise Shield Talismans. He kept me at bay for ten whole minutes. I was very close to using a Rank-1 high-grade talisman,” Shi Jingjing retorted.

Chen Mobai didn’t bother arguing. Chan Sze and her wealthier classmate had just sent him a message. They would be here soon.

“I’m leaving her in your care. I have to go..”
