“That’s right. She’s not like all those Elixir Cultivators Big Brother brought, all the acupuncture and endless doses of medicine. They tried everything they could but it did not help at all. She is really very amazing.” The smile at the corners of Ming Yi Yi’s lips then grew stiff. “If she had not stopped me from drinking the Crimson Sand Viper’s blood, I would probably have turned into a bloodthirsty monster now.”

“Why were you so foolish? Fortunately you did not do something so foolish, or I will not bother with you anymore!” Ming Jing berated her softly, his face fearful from the thought.

Ming Yi Yi then tugged at his robe’s sleeve and shook it gently, her voice pleadingly soft. “I didn’t do it in the end did I? Big Brother, don’t be angry with me anymore.”

Ming Jing glared at her and did not speak, but went on to heave a sigh of relief.

The recruitment trials finally came to an end just before noon and among the five to six hundred people who took part, it turned out that only fifty people passed, exactly the number the Faint Mist Sect said they would recruit before.

The fortunate thing was that Yan Xi Wu and Yan Xi Rou who had originally not harboured any hope actually made it through against their own expectations. It must be said that they were like a blind cat stumbling across a dead mouse this time, and they had probably used up all their luck to reap such an unexpected reward.

People who have made it through the trials would be immediately accepted into the sect and they would henceforth officially become a disciple of the Faint Mist Sect. But after the recruitment trials today, there was also a welcoming meet for the new batch of disciples that would only be held two days later.

Hence, with a good half of the day left, they were allowed to leave the sect grounds or to go settle themselves into the place they were going to live in.

Most of them chose to remain in the sect with eager faces but a small number of them thought that their days ahead would surely be rather dull and so they took that opportunity to go out gallivanting for the rest of that day. After today, it would be a very long time before they would be able to go out.

Although the place where the Faint Mist Sect’s disciple stay in was not as luxurious as it was back at home, but it wasn’t bad as well. The place was clean and neat, the environment elegant.

Every room had four people staying inside and it was not cramped, the rooms fairly spacious. It was not known what Ming Yi Yi told Ming Jing but she was allocated the same courtyard with Qing Yu and their beds were even beside each other.

The other two girls were people who had similarly just made it through the recruitment trials. One of them had been admitted into the Martial Arts Department and the other into the Elixir Cultivators Department. When they saw Qing Yu, their eyes were shining very brightly, amazed that they had been allocated the same room as such an incredible prodigy. They would definitely be the envy of so many people.

Qing Yu surveyed the room as she looked around, before she walked over to the window and pushed the half closed panel wide open. She was suddenly met with a familiar face outside who had coincidentally also just opened her window and they two of them were stunned with surprise for a moment.
