"Yo!
Yan Yue! "
A large palm slapped down on Yan Yue's shoulder. Yan Yue looked towards the direction of the hand and frowned. Why was it him again?
After slapping away his large palm and massaging her numb right shoulder, Yan Yue sighed. His strength was too strong!
"Ya!
Ya!
Don't be angry!
Yan Yue, let's be friends!
Look at how I'm begging you. Oh right, why isn't that Qing Shang Quan here?
He clearly has a fire attribute spirit root. "Gui Lie stretched his neck and looked around. When he didn't see Qing Shang Quan, he turned his head and smiled at Yan Yue.
"Idiot." Before Yan Yue could say anything, the purple clothed child beside her spoke up. His eyes were filled with arrogance.
An ordinary person would have been angry after being scolded, but Gui Lie was obviously not that kind of person. His eyes that were originally staring at Yan Yue were now shining with stars as he looked at the purple clothed child. He excitedly ran in front of him and said, "Ya!
How lucky, Shi Han is here too. Hello, hello, my name is Gui Lie. Can we be friends? "After saying that, he symbolically shook his butt. Zi!
Yan Yue shivered. She felt goosebumps all over her body.
Shi Han also seemed to be unable to stand Gui Lie's indecent appearance. He frowned and turned his head, snorting lightly.
After snorting, he seemed to feel that it wasn't enough. He turned his head and said, "Don't bother me."
Gui Lie was still smiling as he looked at Shi Han. He then looked at Yan Yue. He pursed his lips and pretended to be sad, "Is that so!
Don't be like this!
Sooner or later … we will all be friends. "
Before he finished speaking, he had already sat down between Yan Yue and Shi Han. The evil smile on Shi Han's face deepened. This person was not simple.
Yan Yue's expression also became more serious. This person was indeed unfathomable.
However, this thought only floated in Yan Yue's mind for a moment. Following that, Yan Yue was completely speechless by his super big mouth. She really didn't know what to say.
"Ah!
Don't think about it. Teacher was just scaring you. He wanted to go out and play so he left you with a problem. Ai!
Come and chat with me. It's still early. Why don't we go out for a walk? "
Silence …
"Ya!
Look, teacher is back. "
Silence …
"There's a beauty at the door!
Eh?
Ghost Lie was silent for a few seconds. He no longer had that exaggerated smile on his face. Instead, he had a normal smile on his face. He looked forward and said, "That, do you know?
Our batch of new disciples is the one with the most potential in the past few hundred years. In the past, every batch of new disciples would have two to three or four geniuses. However, in our batch of new disciples, there are six geniuses. Xiantian geniuses, this is unimaginable in the past.
They are Ou Shanghe with the variant Lightning Spirit Root, Nan Zhimeng with the Fire and Water Dual Spirit Root, Qing Shang Quan with the Dark Night Spirit Root, Death Pupil with the Wood Spirit Root and Ice Spirit Root, and Shi Han with the Metal, Wood, Fire, and Earth Spirit Root. "
This time, Yan Yue and Shi Han were still silent. However, they were not as indifferent as before. Instead, they were paying attention to Gui Lie's words.
"And in their conversation, the genius ranked last …" Gui Lie paused for a moment.
Them?
Who was it?
This was the question in Yan Yue and Shi Han's heart.
"It's — me." When Gui Lie said these three words, he did not have his usual smile. Instead, he had an exaggerated look of foolishness.
"But …" Although Gui Lie was still smiling, his voice was serious. "After their conversation, Martial Aunt Violet said that other than the six geniuses, there were two other people who were worthy of her attention. One was Min Xinhan, and the other was you, Yan Yue!
However, in the conversation, she did not mention your names. Your test results were indeed not as good as the six geniuses, including me. This might be the reason why Martial Aunt Violet did not mention you and her in the conversation. However, I do not know why she cared about the two of you. Perhaps she felt that although your innate talents were not as good as ours, you have the possibility of becoming geniuses in the future! "
The possibility of becoming geniuses?
Yan Yue thought. Was that really the case? She had five spiritual roots. This meant that she was destined to be slower than others on the path of cultivation.
Moreover, she started to cultivate when she was twelve, which was much later than others. Although the impurities in her body had endured the pain of two rounds of Marrow Cleansing, it did not mean that she was the same as them. The impurities were deeply rooted in the depths of her body. How could it be so easy to get rid of them?
Seventeen years old, barely reaching Foundation Establishment. It could only be said that she was not bad. However, she could not be considered as a genius because this was the Tianyi Sect.
No matter how she looked at it, she did not feel that there was anything about her that made her think that she would become a genius.
Then, was it because of other reasons?
Ghost Lie looked at Yan Yue and Shi Han, who were deep in thought. He narrowed his eyes and smiled faintly.
After a while, he continued, "The six people who were designated as geniuses will receive different training and treatment from ordinary cultivators. Among the six people, only Nan Zhimeng is a woman. It seems that we men will win the Secluded Abyss Trial half a year later. Hehe!
Winning the Secluded Abyss Trial will give us the opportunity to enter the Extreme Electric River. The most special thing is that the things we obtain in the Extreme Electric River will not have to be handed over to the Sect. This is a great temptation for us.
This information is … confidential. "
Yan Yue thought for a while and asked, "Secluded Abyss Trial, what is this Extreme Electric River?"
Shi Han did not remain silent and asked, "Where did you get this information?"
Hearing the two people's question, Gui Lie narrowed his eyes and returned to his straightforward and silly appearance.
"Ah?
Are you asking me?
Me?
Ahaha, that means we are friends! "
"What is your goal?"
Yan Yue and Shi Han said at the same time. After saying that, the two of them were stunned. They looked at each other and then looked away.
Gui Lie blinked and looked at Yan Yue and then at Shi Han. He pretended to be hurt and said, "Don't say that!
I really want to be friends with you. "
He was clearly fine just a moment ago, but now he was acting so frivolous. Actually, there was something else that Yan Yue was concerned about. Who exactly was the conversation he was talking about? To be honest, Yan Yue was a little concerned.
But if he wanted to say it, he would definitely say it. If he didn't want to say it, even if she asked, he would just brush it off.
There was danger!
Yan Yue quickly got up and left her seat. Gui Lie and Shi Han also left their seats at the same time.
A few fireballs appeared. Although the fireballs landed on the table, the tables and chairs were not damaged in the slightest.
At this moment, the rear was in a mess. All kinds of fire techniques flew in the sky. Some people even started fighting with each other. Those who were implicated also joined the battle.
These people were really stupid!
Shi Han looked at those people who had long forgotten the teacher's topic and were wantonly fighting. His heart was filled with disdain.
Ignoring those idiots, Shi Han walked out of the hall with large strides.
Yan Yue hesitated for a moment before following him out. It was too chaotic inside, and there was no need to stay any longer.
By the time Yan Yue came out, Shi Han's figure had long disappeared. Yan Yue didn't care. She casually chose a direction and walked as if she was strolling.
Looking back, Gui Lie's figure was long gone. When they were leaving, he was still clamoring about going out to play, but now he was nowhere to be seen.
Yan Yue shrugged her shoulders, happy to be at ease.

Layers of dark green vines covered the entire house. Even the door was no exception. The windows were also tightly sealed by the crisscrossing vines.
Two huge trees extended their branches, one on the left and one on the right, blocking the top of the house. This was a house that would never be exposed to the sun. However, it did not look gloomy at all, only revealing a sense of desolation.
At this moment, there were over ten figures sitting or standing in the house. Based on appearance, the oldest looked like a thirty year old uncle, while the youngest looked like a ten year old child.
However, appearance did not determine age. This was even more so in the cultivation world.
Mu Fanghua and Violet were also among these people. At this moment, the two of them were standing behind a person.
This person appeared to be the youngest among these people, but in reality, he was the oldest among them.
He sat at the head of the table, but it was as if he was standing at the top of the world. His brown eyes were deep and calm. Just by sitting there, he had the aura of a sect.
The people who were sitting or standing in the house looked at him with eyes full of fear and respect. They were clearly looking down on him, but when they looked at him, they became looking up.
He was the Tianyi Sect's Sect Leader, 'Yan'.
He had inherited the position of Sect Leader more than 140 years ago. As for who he was and where he came from, apart from a few of the older elders in the sect, no one knew.
He was meticulous, powerful, and intelligent. In the hundred years that he had inherited the position, the Tianyi Sect had undergone great changes. It had jumped from the fifth place in the Huanghai Continent to the second place, only inferior to the White Fairy Palace.
They believed that if they were given another thousand years or so, they would definitely be able to catch up to the White Fairy Palace and become the top power in the Huanghai Continent.
Although they had been together for more than a hundred years, they still did not understand him. No, it should be said that they had never understood him.
"Sect Leader, Grandmaster Hito has not arrived yet." Mu Fanghua stood behind Yan and said respectfully.
"That's right!
That man is too casual. He almost never comes to the Sect Meeting. Sect Leader, aren't you too indulgent of him? "
"That's right!
Sect Leader, you can't do this just because you brought him back … "
"Elder De!
Don't say too much. The Sect Leader will make a decision. "
Yan leaned forward slightly and propped up his left hand to rest his forehead. His mature brown eyes swept over everyone. Everyone felt as if they were being stared at by that pair of eyes. Although that feeling only lasted for a short moment, no one would think that it was an illusion.
Because this man was Yan!
"I've said it before." His voice was filled with magnetism, but it was also very cold. It didn't match his teenage appearance at all, but it matched the feeling he gave off. "In the Tianyi Sect, he is a special existence. No one can stop him from doing anything." Withdrawing his hand, Yan stood up. He smiled indifferently and said, "But it seems like you didn't listen to my words!"
He said this with a smile, but it gave everyone a feeling that a storm was coming. Was it worse than when he was not smiling?
Everyone.
"Forget it. I just want you to remember one thing. Respect him more than you respect me." Yan said this very slowly, but it shocked everyone present.
What?
Everyone present opened their mouths in shock. At this moment, they could not believe that the Sect Leader would say this. Who was this Hito? Why did the Sect Leader treat him like this?
But shock was just shock. His identity as the Sect Leader was there. His words were orders. They had to obey!
