Chapter 32 (2)
"Captain!"
"This girl's tactics are so vicious."
"Spirits of the Wind God, hear my summons."
The wind was frenzied, as a storm of wind blew towards the lightning, colliding hard with that heavenly thunder of Dongfang Wanyu, a wild mix of stormy thunder and fierce winds rolled and the two spiritual energies struck so hard that half the sky turned as bright as day when they collided.
"Second Seal, Thunderous Skies Heaven and Earth Cracking."
Dongfang Wanyu sneered.
The gale raged and lightning flashed past, clouding the entire heaven and earth with a layer of black as if in the next second the heavens and earth were about to be extinguished by this dark cloud, by this lightning.
"Ah, the heavens and earth seem to be shaking." The new students were scared to death by the scene, having never seen such a great skill before.
The heavens and earth were actually shaking!
Jing Qingtian flew straight towards Dongfang Wanyu, trying to stop her before she made another hand seal. She dodged, but Jing Qingtian's spear passed through her arm causing blood to roll off her wrist. Dongfang Wanyu, unfazed by the pain, looked at them with contempt and laughed maniacally, "Come on then, you're all in this together!"
In the meantime, Ye Feng, who was a hundred miles away, suddenly looked at the sky gathering and saw lightning striking down, then the earth shook.
"Someone is fighting."
There seemed to be only one person left among the new students who could make such a big noise.
Jiye and Ye Feng both looked at each other and guessed what the other might have encountered, "Quickly, everyone go converge with Qian Wanyu!"
It must have been the seniors planning to divide their forces first, take care of Qian Wanyu, then it was their turn. Now that they knew they'd obviously never let the older students have their way.
When they arrived, the fierce images were even more brutal than they had imagined, a large group of freshmen being beaten to the ground by the old students, everyone stood back to back, apparently surprised to see them coming, hope was born from the despair.
"Wind God Edict, at my command, Whirlwind Slash."
The wind rose and an illusory blade struck fiercely towards Dongfang Wanyu's direction.
Ye Feng and Ji Ye and the others watched Dongfang Wanyu fight hard to while a group of freshmen on the ground were suppressed by a person holding a big knife and couldn't move.
"Blood Blade Sword."
A blood-red sword flew towards Dongfang Wanyu, and Dongfang Wanyu sneered. Thinking that would take her down? You're dreaming!
"Thunderous Skies Third Seal."
"Wanyu, don't be impulsive, your spiritual energy is still unable to control the third seal, using it to a large extent will backfire and injure your roots." Qing Mo suddenly appeared in her mind and stopped her.
"Four men bullying a woman, I'm ashamed for you all."
Without saying a word, Ye Feng took out his spiral blade and resisted the Blood Blade Sword attack for Dongfang Wanyu. "Go."
"Jing Qingtian, I'll fight you." Ji Ye flew up into the air and knocked Jing Qingtian's spear back as well, he sneered, "In the wind and cloud list, is the famous Jing Qingtian bullying a little sister with a spear? If it wasn't for the competition, I really wouldn't want to challenge an opponent like you."
Jing Qingtian saw that everyone had arrived and knew that his opponent's plan to delay had succeeded, so he said, "Come fight. A battle today will determine the winner."
Ye Feng also couldn't help but sarcastically say, "Blood Blade, let me see if your Blood Blade is faster than my Spiral Blade."
Leng Bingshuang had already been beaten by Dongfang Wanyu and was lying on the ground, covered in injuries, with the remnants of lightning still within her body. Every time she tried to circulate some spiritual energy, she would touch the lightning hidden in her body and be instantly electrocuted as soon as she used her spiritual power. This sour feeling was really bad enough!
"Qian Wanyu!"
Dongfang Wanyu, bruised and battered, got up from the ground again.
"Mo Fengbao, come again."
Mo Fengbao looked at her desperation and shook her head, "No need to fight, I've lost."
Qian Anying also immediately appeared in front of her, curious, "Why are you able to dodge my sneak attacks every time."
Dongfang Wanyu was expressionless and manifested the jade medallion in his hand, "Since you all concede defeat, come and give me all your spirit stones."
The two people: "…….."
Since then, Dongfang Wanyu has been called not only a desperate woman but also a wealthy man.
Ye Feng and Ji Ye fought from dawn to darkness for a day and a night before they came to a draw, but below them was all the other fellows that had been subdued by Dongfang Wanyu.
Leng Bingshuang looked angry and said, "Qian Wanyu, we'll fight again when I'm healed. One more fight, I won't let you off next time."
"Suit yourself."
Being light on the enemy was already a major taboo in battle.
The battle of the new students and old students was completely over after another three days.
The examiner suddenly appeared and used the teleporting array to bring them all out of the secret realm, "First of all, congratulations on passing the second assessment!"
The new students' eyes were all shining, they couldn't believe that they passed.
Instructor Ouyang saw them jumping up and down happily one by one, and couldn't help but smile, "I forgot to tell you before, the top three this time can go to the library and pick a skill, the first place can pick two skills. Now I'll announce the first-place winner is Qian Wanyu of the Thunder Palace, and the second and third place winners are tied for the Wind Palace's Ye Feng and Ji Ye of the Ice Temple Hall, congratulations."
Instructor Ouyang left the three of them behind, "You guys go back and rest for three days, after three days there will be a special person in charge who will take you to the Hidden Book Pavilion to pick."
The three of them had fought a dizzying battle and naturally gained a lot of insights during their battles. Each of them returned to their place of residence. A new round of closed-door cultivation began.
Dongfang Wanyu gained the most, and when she returned to the courtyard, Dongfang Minghui seemed to not have returned yet, she wrote a note and posted it directly outside her door, then closed the door and fell into a deep meditation.
She became famous in the magic mirror, a role model for all the freshmen, everyone was asking about her.
Dongfang Wanyu mingled in the crowd, listening to how they raved about her Seventh sister made her little face smile like a flower in full bloom. She felt even happier than if they had complimented her instead. There was also talk of going to the Female Protagonist's residence and asking her to take them in as little brothers.
She secretly thought, "See, how wise was it of her to lure the Female Protagonist to her little courtyard, or haha, Seventh sister would have definitely been harassed."
Seventh sister must have returned to the courtyard, Dongfang Minghui thought as she rushed back.
She ended up finding a piece of paper outside the door that said she had gone into closed-door cultivation to meditate and asked her not to disturb her. Dongfang Minghui immediately lost it, this Seventh sister of her's is really a cultivation fanatic, but it's good if the Female Protagonist got stronger and stronger, then her safety was guaranteed!
And so, Dongfang Minghui continued to live a three-pointed life, one in the Dean's office and the other back mountain medicinal plant garden, while the third is to return to the small house.
"Blue Star Dream, your master doesn't even want you." Dongfang Minghui pursed her lips and said unhappily, she had no idea what was going on with Situ Hao lately, he hadn't visited for ten days, almost half a month now, usually, he'd drop by every now and then to see Blue Star Dream.
Blue Star Dream wasn't in a good mood either.
Dongfang Minghui sighed, since Little Colour swallowed the spiritual energy in Blue Star Dream, it has been closed and silent for half a month as well. She suddenly felt like she was the idlest one.
"Little Colour said that I have to find the skills that suit me to continue my promotion. Blue Star Dream, you see I can't suppress the spiritual energy in my body anymore." Dongfang Minghui felt so painful that others wanted to be promoted, she just wanted to find a way to suppress it.
Blue Star Dream curled her fingers around with a tender branch, rubbing and soothing it.
Dongfang Minghui immediately felt the bumps on its shoots, which she remembered should eventually grow into sharp thorns, she inspected it and couldn't help but smile, "Wow, Blue Star Dream, you seem to have grown up a bit."
Blue Star Dream wobbled and was delighted.
Dongfang Minghui decided to wait until Little Colour woke up and asked it to see if there's a way for Blue Star Dream to get back to a state where it could talk to her.
"Ninth sister."
When she turned back, she saw Dongfang Wanyu leaning against the door, looking at her with arms folded around her chest, apparently, she'd gone out from her closed-door cultivation.
"Seventh sister, you're you? How are your wounds?" She remembered the Female Protagonist being besieged, again and again withstanding all the attacks.
Dongfang Wanyu waved her hand without a care, "It doesn't bother me, I'm going out later."
"Seventh sister, you sit down." Dongfang Minghui pinned her down on a stone bench and hurriedly brought out a large pile of bottles and jars from her room.
Dongfang Minghui pulled up her sleeves and grumbled at the scars that were shocking to the touch. "This Jing Qingtian really has no mercy at all, how could he lay such a heavy hand on you. Curse him to not be able to find someone he likes for the rest of his life. Hmph!"
Dongfang Wanyu didn't know if to laugh or cry from her words, and was surprised, "Ninth sister, how did you know that this injury of mine is from Jing Qingtian?"
She couldn't help but smile, "Seventh sister, all the brothers, and sisters in the school know about your valiant form! While you were competing, the magic mirror would play out the important footage, you don't even know how heroic you were when you fought one against four. Not to mention me, all the new students in the whole school now worship you as a goddess!"
Dongfang Wanyu, seeing her radiantly describing the freshmen in the square who were fascinated by her, couldn't help but laugh softly, "Ninth sister, you're exaggerating."
"Nooo it's true!" Dongfang Minghui applied the medicine to both of her arm wounds before pulling the person into the room and wanted to immediately start stripping her.
"Ninth sister, what are you doing?"
Dongfang Minghui looked confused, "Taking off your clothes ah, you must have many wounds on your body."
Dongfang Wanyu was a little uncomfortable with her proximity and she'd never taken off her clothes in front of anyone before. This sudden intimacy made her uncomfortable and she immediately stopped her, "Turn your back and I'll take it off myself."
"Well, Seventh sister I didn't know you get embarrassed too." Dongfang Minghui smiled, turns out the Female Protagonist also has a shy side.
Slightly embarrassed, Dongfang Wanyu wrapped a towel around her chest, her entire back was facing Dongfang Minghui, "All right."
There was a large shocking wound on her back, there were also sword wounds, dagger wounds, and wounds caused by wind blades, Dongfang Minghui couldn't bear to apply the medicine when she saw it.
"Seventh sister, my medicine might be a bit painful, so bear with it for now." Dongfang Minghui leaned closer, lowered her head, and carefully cleaned the wounds with alcohol first, before slowly applying the medicinal liquid to her wounds.
Dongfang Wanyu could feel the hot breath of the person behind her. As she spoke it sprayed on her wounds and tickled.
"Ninth sister, are you done yet?"
Dongfang Minghui's fingers lightly touched those injuries.
She could clearly feel the temperature of her fingertips.
Dongfang Wanyu turned directly to her and grasped her hand, "I'll take care of the rest of the injuries, let me borrow the room for a moment."
Knowing the other party was shy, Dongfang Minghui nodded, "Seventh sister you have to apply it well."
Dongfang Wanyu didn't know what to do with her, Little Nine had become a good mother-in-law since she became a pharmacist, but this feeling of being cared for and nervous didn't seem so bad.
Dongfang Wanyu quickly applied the medicine on her wounds, then changed her clothes and walked out.
"Seventh sister, you're going to the library, right? You'll have to apply it again when you get back." Dongfang Minghui instructed.
"Good."
As soon as Dongfang Wanyu left the pharmacy gate, someone was already waiting for her.
"Are you Qian Wanyu?"
"Yes."
"Please follow me."
When she arrived in front of the library, Ye Feng and Ji Ye were already waiting outside the door, apparently arriving before her. They met her and greeted her with a smile.
"Three of you, before you enter the Hidden Book Pavilion, you should listen to the rules inside, with your own different levels, the floors would be different as well. Also, listen to my advice, don't pick and choose your sesame seeds, you only have one hour, if you can't choose the one you like you will still be sent out so the chances are all in your own hands."
Dongfang Wanyu nodded, and the three of them said in unison, "Thank you."
A white light flashed before her eyes, and when she opened her eyes again, she found herself in a dreamy library full of scrolls.
"Wanyu, people are meant to follow their hearts and choose immediately when they've picked the right one. You only have one hour, be quick." Dongfang Wanyu whispered in her heart.
Dongfang Wanyu immediately went to a bookshelf to look for something, she directly ignored the scrolls on the shelf in front of her and followed her feelings all the way to a nook and cranny where the scrolls were located in a very remote location with dust collecting on them.
She was curious, what was in it that had caught her attention? She looked up and down until she found a dark scroll, the Reincarnation Duel, an Earth Skill.
She had a hunch that this was it.
Dongfang Wanyu was about to touch it, but the scroll automatically flew up, dodging her touch and scampering away quickly.
"Don't let it get away."
Since even Qing Mo said so, this Reincarnation Duel must be something extraordinary, Dongfang Wanyu didn't even think twice before throwing out her water thunder whip, the scroll was cunning as lightning, brushing away and escaping from the gap between the whips.
Dongfang Wanyu was furious now, the angrier she got the more she felt she didn't want to let the scroll escape.
"Nine mouthed bag."
Dongfang Wanyu immediately threw a bag into the air and the bag split into nine mouths, each going towards the scroll.
Now, it had nowhere to flee and was bound solidly by the bag.
"Good boy."
Dongfang Wanyu gripped the scroll tightly in her hand, then returned to the shelf to look at it, and she suddenly thought of the words Dongfang Minghui had muttered to Blue Star Dream just a moment ago.
If you can't get a skill, you can't advance, no wonder she only went up a small step last time she advanced, it seems that there were so many twists and turns in the middle of the process.
"Qing Mo, what kind of skill should I pick if I'm picking a skill for my ninth sister?"
Qing Mo kept his mouth shut, whatever Dongfang Wanyu said, he could guess what she was going to do next. It was not easy to get an opportunity, but Dongfang Minghui was giving it away again for nothing, he really didn't understand what Wanyu was thinking!
Dongfang Wanyu wasn't annoyed when he didn't respond to her, so she looked around on the bookshelf and saw a scroll with a rather nice name for a skill – Heavenly Maiden Scattering Flowers.
She discerned it more carefully, it was a scroll of Xuan stage, she thought for Dongfang Minghui this was her first time touching a skill, the Xuan stage wasn't too low.
"This scroll will do." Dongfang Wanyu took it without even thinking about it.
This scroll was well-behaved, lying quietly in her hand.
Once the two scrolls were chosen, Dongfang Wanyu chose to leave automatically and never looked at the others again.
The old man sitting at the entrance of the library was surprised to see her come out, "Little girl, you're quite fast. Yes. Have you chosen? If you've chosen, make a registration here."
"Thank you, teacher."
Dongfang Wanyu filled it out and walked away.
The old man smiled at her back and continued to close his eyes and sleep.
Dongfang Minghui didn't go out, she had recently missed work and was chastised by the dean, the dean threw a prescription directly at her, it was a marrow cleansing pill, the dean ordered her to refine it within ten days.
At first, she was a little complacent, thinking that the dean had been lenient. But then, when she got the prescription and started to mix medicinal plants, she was dumbfounded.
More than twenty kinds of medicinal plants.
Not to mention the failure rate, she has done the experiment many times to the point that she is going crazy.
Dongfang Wanyu saw her scratching her ears and furrowing her brow when she came in, and her face was covered in medicinal juice, blue and purple, making her look like a kitten.
"Things should be done slowly, it's even worse if you were to do it in a hurry." Dongfang Wanyu sat down and placed the scroll on the table.
"Seventh sister has a point."
Dongfang Minghui cleaned her hands and handed her the porcelain vase she had already prepared, "This is what I made for you today, apply it again after your shower."
"Okay, I have something for you too."
"Hmph." Qing Mo snorted in her soul sea, indicating that he was very unhappy with her decision.
Dongfang Wanyu was a bit helpless and smiled at Dongfang Minghui. You never seemed to find a skill that suits you, it just so happens that I went to the library today and saw this and thought it would be perfect for you."
Dongfang Minghui rubbed her fingers nervously, aiya the Female Protagonist was being so nice to her, she actually felt it was all a little unreal, she even wanted to pinch her cheeks.
"Iya, It hurts."
So it's true.
Dongfang Wanyu pursed her lips looking at this silly Ninth Sister.
"Well, you look at this skill first, if you have any problem you can find me next door." Dongfang Wanyu took the medicine and left.
"Open it and look at it with your soul." Little Colour suddenly woke up and instructed Dongfang Minghui.
Heavenly Maiden Scattering Flowers, Xuan Stage Skill, as Dongfang Wanyu's first skill to lay a good foundation, it was actually good enough, Little Colour suddenly felt as if that Seventh Sister, was being overly nice to her, but of course, it didn't have time to think about it because the other party had already opened the scroll.
Dongfang Minghui opened it and all the fonts on the skill drilled into her mind. She sat cross-legged and read over the essentials of the Heavenly Maiden's Scroll.
"The skill your Seventh sister found for you is pretty good." Little Colour slurred, "You can't advance until you've practised the first essential skill."
Dongfang Minghui couldn't help but protest, "I'm going to explode if I keep suppressing it."
"Just explode then, as long as I'm here, you won't die."
Dongfang Minghui wanted to talk to Little Colour again but realised the other party had fallen back into cultivation.
Everyone was practising, and Dongfang Minghui was too embarrassed to continue dragging everyone down, not to mention that she had a Xuan Stage skill given to her by the Female Protagonist.
Dongfang Minghui practised all night and found something that pleased her to no end…
