Chapter 408: Return
Chapter 408: Return
The pupils outside the Holy Land continued to discuss, and even the old pupils from each Peak began to call Yu Qing Qian the ‘Great Demon King’.
“Hm? Why’s the Great Demon King returning.”
Following one person’s surprised exclamation, everyone turned their attention to Yu Qing Qian again who had reached the end of the corridor.
She only rested for a moment before getting up and turning back into the corridor, leaving people confused.
“Could it be she’s returning to help Che Tong Tong pass the challenge?”
“How’s that possible, you’re not allowed to help with this sort of challenge that you can’t win using tricks. If you’re entangled by the will-o’-the-wisps white silhouettes, then it would be considered foul if the Great Demon King used the Nine-Coloured Magic Lotus to help.”
“Yeah! And this kind of challenge is a kind of training experience. Great Demon King won’t go affect the experience her friend right.”
“Then what’s she doing returning?”
“I was just saying that the Great Demon King smiled very meaningfully when she passed the second test. She’ll definitely do something surprising to us this time.”
“The Great Demon King’s really not an ordinary person.”
As for Yu Qing Qian returning after passing the second level, not to mention the surprise of the pupils outside the Holy Land, the superiors inside the Holy Land were also surprised.
“This girl’s very intelligent and has firm perseverance, she’s no weaker than Chi Mo Ran and Feng Chen. She’s an excellent seedling. As long as she doesn’t die in the middle, her future achievements will probably surpass all of us.” The Purple Peak’s Honoured Chief praised.
The Headmaster smiled even deeper, “Fortunately we snatched her special admission this time, otherwise the Imperial Academy would be smug.”
“Haha, if those old decrepit things knew that Yu Qing Qian was so excellent, they’d probably regret why they didn’t add more chips at the time to get Yu Qing Qian to choose the Imperial Academy.” The Cyan Peak’s Honoured Chief laughed.
Speaking of the Imperial Academy’s superiors jumping in anger, the other superiors were all in a good mood.
Sitting beside the cyan-clothed woman, a young man who had never spoken said: “What does this girl want to do? Is she going for the soul stones I refined?”
The several superiors were startled when they heard his words, with expressions on their faces as if they didn’t know whether to laugh or cry—this girl really didn’t allow herself any losses….
“Ancestor, do we want her to go back?” The Headmaster looked at the young man and asked.
The young man chuckled: “No need, I sure want to see what that girl will do next.”
The others also paid attention to Yu Qing Qian and were curious about how she’d collect the soul stones without affecting the other’s ability to pass the level.
Yu Qing Qian had already passed the second level, so when she returned, she didn’t encounter the grey fog again.
When she walked to the second test area, she saw countless will-o’-the-wisp white silhouettes surrounding two pupils. The expressions of the two pupils were constantly changing, obviously having fallen into an illusion.
Yu Qing Qian wasn’t in a hurry. She sat cross-legged not far away, taking out a soul stone she had obtained before and absorbing it carefreely, leaving the several superiors extremely speechless.
This girl’s behaviour sure was truly bold, but it made people unable to grasp onto any faults. After all, there was no rule that didn’t allow people who had passed the level to return.
Time passed little by little, and more and more pupils began to experience the second test. Many of the previous pupils who had been trapped in the illusion still couldn’t extricate themselves. Two of the Seven Swordsmasters were the first to escape from the illusion.
However, they didn’t have sacred items like the Nine-Coloured Magic Lotus, so the moment the illusion was broken, they could bypass those will-o’-the-wisp white silhouettes.
When they walked out of the second test area, they saw Yu Qing Qian sitting cross-legged and all revealed surprise.
“Since Junior Sister Yu has already passed here, why don’t you continue going forward?” Third Sword had interacted with Yu Qing Qian several times and could be considered familiar with her, so he couldn’t resist asking.
Yu Qing Qian didn’t hide it, stood up, and said with a smile: “I already cleared all the tests, I’ve just returned for them.”
She pointed at the will-o’-the-wisp white silhouettes after speaking that had entangled the two of them before and was currently about to disperse.
