Chapter 187.4 - Cover Up, I Am Serious
The way Mu Lai forcefully helped Tan Lin Ruo overcome his acrophobia turned out to be highly effective, and he was doing a lot better with dealing with heights, able to participate as one of the Elixir Cultivators Department’s representatives.
For the spots allocated to the Soul Cultivators Department, the sibling pair Ming Jing and Ming Yi Yi took a spot each, while Qing Bei took another, with the remaining two spots left given to one male and one female disciple who possessed high levels of cultivation.
The Elixir Cultivators Department and the Martial Arts Department were each given ten spots and for these two departments who each had over a hundred members, it was enough for their disciples to fight intensely for gain a place.
The Friendship Meet would go on for a total of three days and so the disciples had to pack some clothes to bring along with them. As Qing Yu had her own personal dimensional space following her at all times, and that it was always filled with all kinds of necessities, there wasn’t much else she needed to pack.
Finding herself having some free time without much to do, she went over to where Qing Bei was staying to take a look. Speaking of this, it had been two months since they came to the Faint Mist Sect but as they were both in different departments, Qing Yu and Qing Bei seldom met each other. Except for people who were familiar with them, almost no one even knew that those two were siblings, and it could be imagined what a low profile both of them kept.
But as it had been quite a long time since she came to the place, just as she was passing the Soul Cultivators Department’s classroom, she overheard a few people chatting. She had originally not wanted to mind other people’s business but as she came to hear a familiar name being mentioned, she suddenly paused in her steps.
“Really wonder what kind of background the kid Qing Bei holds behind him. Elder Yan likes him, and Ming Jing takes extra good care of him, and had even given him the chance to take part in the Friendship Meet. What right does an ignorant little kid like him who just joined us so recently have to enjoy such a prestigious honour?”
“I think, he must be related in some way to some big shot in the sect, and special arrangements were made for him to join us!”
“What else can it be? Hmph! He thinks he is really somebody, enjoying the backing of the teachers and our First Senior, so he can be so arrogant? A new recruit who looks down on others, disrespecting his other seniors, we really must teach him a good lesson.”
“I’ll say that all of you had better not carry things too far. Although that fella is a little cold and aloof, but he at least has a very handsome looking face. You must remember not to damage that beautiful face I tell you!” This came from a girl’s giggly voice, her words holding some deeper meaning.
It was another guy who took over the mic next. “What? You’re interested in him as well? That kid has such soft and tender skin, he looks better than many of our female disciples here! Hahaha.....”
‘Bam~’
The half closed door was suddenly kicked wide open, smashing into the wall with a loud crash, giving everyone inside a frightful shock.
“Who is that! ? You’re courting death!” Someone shouted.
A slender figured young lady stood outside the door, dressed in the sect’s white cloud patterned uniform, her complexion fair and smooth, her countenance exquisitely alluring, like a seductive demoness wearing a faint smile that did not reach her eyes.
Someone immediately noticed that the uniform the young lady was wearing was different from theirs, and could not help but cried out in surprise: “She’s from the Deviant Department!”
