Chapter 52: Passed the Exam

Echo Mountain Peak, inside the Hall Masters cave

Spiritual energy filled the cave, and many beautiful scrolls hung on the walls of the cave. From caves to the starry sky, from inanimate objects to living animals, every painting was done with immense attention and detail, so much so that it could make an observer feel as if they were in the scroll observing the painted object.

If a mortal with weak willpower looked at the painting, they would be so immersed in it that they would stand there until they fainted from fatigue.

In the center of many precious scrolls were a few bookshelves, a bed, a table, and a chair, very plain and simple, which seemed out of place with all the precious scroll paintings.

There was a colorful jade zither next to the bed. The zither was translucent and beautiful, and its strings were slightly emitting spiritual energy.

A stunningly beautiful woman was lying on the bed, looking at the zither and lost in thought. Though it may look like she was mesmerized by the jade zither, that was not the case at all. What she saw was by no means as simple as a zither.

After a long time had passed, the woman finally came back to her senses. God of War, Shura, Dragon King. Just from the name, one can tell they are powerful people. And yet, from the stories he told, they are people who lay low and pretend to be useless son-in-laws This little guy is quite interesting.

Disciple lobby

Despite being a maid, which cultivators considered to be a personal item, Wu Xue was being treated extremely well by the disciples in the Music and Art Hall. Too well, in fact, that it felt too good to be true.

The Crystallization and Golden Core Realm cultivators, whom Wu Xue considered powerful, were very nice and familiar with her, calling her Lil Xue lil sis with pleasant voices. Even though she was also a female like them, Wu Xue was feeling kind of high. If she was a male, then she probably wouldnt even be able to think of anything and would just be giggling stupidly.

So, after Junior Brother Ye Yong canceled his engagement to Junior Sister Qin Shi Meng, he dedicated himself to cultivation and didnt look for any daoist couple. He also didnt mention anyone he was interested in, right?

Mhmm, Wu Xue nodded cutely as she drank the good-tasting spirit fruit juice.

After getting a confirmation, the female cultivators smiled as they looked at each other, and soon their eyes were filled with a slight hostility toward each other. Even though there was a chance that Ye Yong wouldnt pass the exam and become a fellow disciple of the Music and Art Hall, he would still be in the Heavenly Luo Sect. This meant that they would still have a chance, so in that case, they were all rivals.

Lil Xue, Im back. Hello senior sisters, hello junior sisters, Ye Yong said as he walked into the disciple lobby.

Even though he was going to be mainly focused on the heroines in the novel, it didnt mean that he didnt like the passionate gazes of the female side characters. Besides, they all looked beautiful and gave off sweet scents, and the fragrance was making Ye Yong a bit dizzy.

Lu Xiao Xiao, who was holding a book and stuck at the outer edge of the crowd, was jumping up and down. So unfair! Im the one who discovered this treasure junior brother!

Silence! Yi Bai and the other Golden Core Realm female cultivators came in later as they had gone to the hall masters cave to report the results to the hall master.

It was evident that Golden Core Realm cultivators had influence, as when those words came out, the whole place became silent.

Whining and yelling, where are your manners? Yi Bai said with a stern face. Those who just joined are fine, but the rest of you should know by this point that we music and art cultivators require a calm and quiet heart and mind at all times.

Many female cultivators shrunk their shoulders like they were children who had done something wrong. Im sorry, Senior Sister.

Whats the point of saying sorry to me? Say it to Junior Brother Ye! What if hes intimidated by you guys and wants to change halls? That was what Yi Bai and the other Golden Core Realm disciples were worried about. You all are acting like you have never seen a male before and want to devour him. What are you going to do if you scare him away?

Im sorry, Junior/Senior Brother Ye.

Its okay. You all were just happy for me. Like everyone, Im happy that I can be here, Ye Yong said, clasping his fists and saluting. In a gentle voice, he said, Please take care of me from now on.

So polite, so graceful.

Yi Bai was mesmerized for a bit, but she soon came back to her senses and shook her head. She coughed, saying, Our Music and Art Hall doesnt have a lot of people, so we should take care of each other and support each other like family. Whoever can cook come to the kitchen and make some food, well hold a feast for the junior brother and sisters who joined us today!

Even though cultivators didnt need to eat, they would get tired and bored of only eating pills all the time, so most cultivators would often occasionally get delicacies to enjoy. Some sects even had cultivators who specialized in food and drinks.

To pursue a man, one must first capture his stomach. This logic also applied to cultivators.

Dozens of female disciples rushed toward the kitchen.
