“No. 01000, Qi Ming. Fifth level of Qi Refinement, passed.”
The thin-faced servant elder took a deep breath, but the shock on his face had not completely faded as he shouted at everyone present.
Everyone was silent.
Only everyone’s respectful gazes were focused on Qi Ming.
The thin-faced servant elder handed the Assessment Token to Qi Ming solemnly and said, “Qi Ming, next, you have to work hard and not let down your aptitude.”
“Yes.” Qi Ming accepted the Assessment Token and nodded before walking down.
.
“Boss, you were so cool just now.” Zhu Xiaoxian shouted.
“Right, right!”
Hu Gang and the others nodded and surrounded him. “All of us were shocked by you, Boss. No one expected that your cultivation level had already reached the fifth level of Qi Refinement.”
“It’s simply indescribable.”
“Senior… Senior Qi…”
At this moment, Li Feiyun’s expression was nervous, and there was still fear in his eyes. He arrived in front of Qi Ming and bowed 90 degrees before saying, “Senior… Senior Brother, I… I was wrong. I was blind and did not recognize your greatness. I did not know that Senior Brother Qi’s cultivation had already reached the fifth level of Qi Refinement. I still dared to speak arrogantly to you.”
“Senior Brother Qi, please forgive me.”
Li Feiyun bowed repeatedly.
“We told you long ago. How dare you compare yourself to our boss? You’re just asking to be humiliated. You don’t know the immensity of heaven and earth. Do you believe us now?” Zhang Qing said.
“Our boss can defeat you with one hand.” He Ping explained.
“Yes, yes, yes.” Li Feiyun nodded repeatedly. “Everyone is right. Senior Brother Qi is an eagle spreading its wings and flying high in the sky, while I am a little sparrow flying in the forest. How can I be compared to Senior Brother Qi?”
“At least you know your place.”
Hu Gang and the others were using Qi Ming’s status to intimidate others now.
“Scram.” Qi Ming said calmly.
“Yes.” Li Feiyun bowed and, under the gazes of everyone, actually did as Qi Ming instructed and rolled away from the square, causing everyone to laugh loudly.
“Hahaha…”
“Look at him. He’s really embarrassing himself.”
“He’s like a dog.”
“Even worse than a dog.”
“I’m dying of laughter.”
Everyone laughed.
“This Li Feiyun…”
Qi Ming narrowed his eyes slightly. “He is able to go with the flow. As the saying goes, Han Xin endured the humiliation and became a successful military leader afterwards. In his case…”
“Senior Brother Qi.”
Qiao Yuxian lightly stepped forward and arrived in front of Qi Ming. A charming smile appeared on her exquisite face, making people feel as if they were bathed in spring wind. It was as if she was born with an ability to make a good impression.
“Yes.” Qi Ming said lightly.
“For Senior Brother Qi to be able to cultivate to the fifth level of Qi Refinement, he must have worked very hard and suffered a lot in the past three years to achieve his current achievements.”
Qiao Yuxian said gently, “I really admire Senior Brother from the bottom of my heart.”
“No.”
Qi Ming shrugged and said, “Junior Sister Qiao, you’re making it sound serious. Actually, I don’t know what’s going on either. I only cultivated the ‘Green Cloud Qi Refinement Art’ step by step every day, and then my cultivation level rose by itself.”
“It was not bitter at all. It’s just that I see everyone working so hard to cultivate every day, but I… Sigh… Sometimes, I really envy you. I also want to be an ordinary person like you and experience the pain of cultivation.”
“Senior… Senior Qi…” Qiao Yuxian’s red lips opened slightly, revealing neat and white teeth and a rosy tongue. Her beautiful eyes widened slightly, completely stunned by Qi Ming’s words.
Damn it!
He had succeeded in posturing!
“Senior Brother Qi is truly talented.”
Qiao Yuxian did not know what to say.
“Perhaps.”
Qi Ming looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle and clasped his hands behind his back, “Actually, I prefer the life of an ordinary person. I want to be like an ordinary person and experience all kinds of ups and downs. Only then will my life be truly complete.”
“I…” Qiao Yuxian fell silent.
Then, soon, the elder announced that there were not many disciples who had passed the test of the spirit energy stone monument in the D-Class Servant Quarters. Including Qi Ming, there were only 98 people.
The probability of passing was less than ten percent.
“98 of you have already passed the test of the spirit energy stone monument and obtained the Assessment Token. You can already be considered as outer sect disciples.”
The servant quarters’ elder said, “Next, you only need to go to the Outer Sect Hall to register and record it before you can join the outer sect.”
“However…”
The elder paused for a moment before saying, “You can choose to continue participating in the upcoming Outer Sect Assessment.”
“First. We will select ten strongest servant disciples from the four great servant quarters of the Green Cloud Peak before letting you compete with the other servant disciples of the other eleven peaks.”
“If you can obtain good results and display sufficiently outstanding talent, perhaps the elders of the sect will take a fancy to you and take you in as their disciple.”
“Then your status will skyrocket.”
“Moreover…”
“There will be various rewards for the Outer Sect Assessment. Those who want to participate can directly register. Those who don’t will report to the Outer Sect Hall this afternoon.”
Thus…
All 98 servant disciples signed up.
In the afternoon, a competition was carried out in the D-Class Servant Quarters. Ten servant disciples were selected from the 98 servant disciples before they competed with the three great servant quarters.
“No. 01000 Qi Ming versus No. 0746 Yang Wei.” The elder shouted.
“I admit defeat.”
Yang Wei had not gone on stage yet. When he heard that his opponent was Qi Ming, he very decisively admitted defeat. Qi Ming won the first round without fighting.
“Qi Ming wins.”
The elder was also stunned.
“Sure.” Qi Ming shrugged indifferently.
Next, as long as Qi Ming appeared, those servant disciples who faced Qi Ming would all forfeit and surrender.
How could he possibly win against someone at the fifth level Qi Refinement realm at the third level Qi Refinement realm? He would only be asking for a beating from Qi Ming.
He just had to go through the motions.
Of course, Xiao Fan’s saber techniques were indeed extraordinary. Basically, there was no one who could withstand a single strike from him and were defeated.
Lin Qingxuan, Qiao Yuxian, and the others were not bad either.
“No. 01000 Qi Ming versus No. 0984 Chen Jie.” The elder shouted.
Swish!
“Senior Brother Qi.”
Chen Jie jumped onto the stage in a few steps. He clearly used some movement technique to bow to Qi Ming and said, “Please enlighten me.”
“What?” Qi Ming was stunned. He was used to his opponent surrendering.
He asked, “You’re not surrendering?”
“This Junior Brother wants to give it a try.” Chen Jie smiled.
“Up to you.” Qi Ming said.
Then, Qi Ming walked onto the stage.
“Senior Brother Qi, I’m untalented. I’ve cultivated the Green Cloud Sword Technique for three years, but I’m still at the Mastered realm now. I’ve always been unable to pry into the level of Outstanding.”
Clang!
Chen Jie had a delicate face and a slender body. He held a talisman treasure longsword that was shimmering with silver light and said, “This sword is called the Silver Frost Sword, a low-grade Qi Refinement realm talisman treasure.”
“Oh.” Qi Ming replied calmly.
“Senior Brother Qi, aren’t you going to take out your talisman treasure?” Chen Jie frowned as he questioned.
“No need.” Qi Ming replied.
“You!!!”
A hint of anger appeared on Chen Jie’s face. He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, “Senior Brother Qi, although you’re already at the fifth level Qi Refinement realm and your cultivation level is indeed much higher than mine, you still don’t respect me. If you lose, don’t say that I took advantage of you.”
In the surroundings, the servant disciples discussed animatedly.
“Qi Ming is too conceited.”
“Yes, yes.”
“Chen Jie is at the third level of Qi Refinement, and his Green Cloud Sword Technique is only a step away from the realm of Outstanding. Qi Ming doesn’t even use a weapon and wants to fight Chen Jie bare-handed. He’s too arrogant.”
“Qi Ming is going to fail miserably.”
…
“Make your move,” Qi Ming said.
“Excuse me.”
Clang!
A ruthless expression flashed across Chen Jie’s face. His figure swayed like a snake as he twisted and advanced. He moved left and right at times, and he was very agile. This was the Spirit Snake Steps.
In the blink of an eyem Chen Jie approached Qi Ming.
“Green Cloud Sword Technique.”
The Silver Frost Sword in Chen Jie’s hand slashed out sword lights that were like flowing clouds. They were continuous and powerful.
“This Spirit Snake Steps coupled with the Green Cloud Sword Technique.”
“His speed and timing are good, and his strength is not weak.”
“Qi Ming was really careless.”
The three servant elders discussed.
However, Qi Ming blinked lightly. He only used his right hand to point his sword. Spirit energy gathered at the tip of his finger and transformed into a green sword qi.
The sword pointed forward.
Clang!!!
It directly hit the weak points of Chen Jie’s sword technique. The green sword qi quickly destroyed all of Chen Jie’s sword techniques and sword lights.
It dissipated completely.
The scene seemed to have frozen instantly.
Chen Jie’s Silver Frost Sword fell to the ground. Qi Ming’s sword was pointed at his throat, only a finger’s width away. The sword qi pierced through the skin on Chen Jie’s throat, and blood seeped out.
At this moment, Chen Jie’s body stiffened. He did not dare to move, afraid that his throat would be pierced. Cold sweat broke out all over his body, and his eyes were filled with fear.
A breeze blew.
From the beginning to the end, Qi Ming did not move his feet. Only the wind blew and messed up the tidiness of his clothes and hair.
Qi Ming’s face was angular and his facial features were well-defined. He was not delicate and handsome. Coupled with his tall figure, he had a firm and mature temperament.
At this moment, he was domineering and fierce.
“So… so handsome…” Qiao Yuxian could not help but say with a red face.
