Chapter 570 - 310: Falling into Ji Meng’s Charm Technique

Chapter 570: Chapter 310: Falling into Ji Meng’s Charm Technique

Jiang Man asked seriously, "Say we encounter this kind of person in actual combat. If I attack her lower body, can she defend herself? Will the Magic Robe take effect?"

"It should take effect. Magical Treasures usually protect the entire body," Ji Meng replied after a brief thought.

Jiang Man looked at Ji Meng and continued the discussion, "Then wouldn’t the defense be weaker? After all, it’s not covered, practically inviting people to attack the lower body."

At this moment, Qing Dai whispered, "We could have Miss wear it and spar with you in the courtyard, Young Master, to see if the defense is truly weaker."

Ji Meng turned her head to look at Qing Dai. Shrinking her neck, Qing Dai immediately scurried over to Zhuo Bufan’s table. Since they were on the same side, it was only natural to ask about the latest news. Then, she pulled out a box of tea leaves. At the sight of the tea, the eyes of the others lit up.

If anyone dared to tell them that Xiaoqing wasn’t on their side, they would definitely get angry with them. With these tea leaves, their Cultivation would go much smoother in the future. Without the support of their families, they had to rely entirely on Xiaoqing’s support.

Qing Dai’s topic made Jiang Man ponder for a moment. He felt it was all too easy to fall prey to Charm Techniques. If he ever had the chance to encounter one again, he would definitely have to keep his Spirit on high alert.

"What are you thinking about, Young Master Jiang?" Ji Meng asked curiously.

"I just fell into Miss Ji Meng’s Charm Technique and spaced out for a moment," Jiang Man said.

"I didn’t even use it."

"I was just imagining it."

While they were chatting, Yan Yiqiu walked in. She still didn’t look well, indicating that the previous year had been quite exhausting for her. Since Jiang Man wasn’t around back then, he had no idea what had made Mr. Yan work so hard.

"It is now the second year, and you all should know your scores from the first year. Those who want the qualification for Returning Void must work harder," Yan Yiqiu said, looking at Ji Shoumo and the others. "In addition, those with sufficient scores must also be careful. Your actual combat abilities need to be improved.

"After all, our courtyard only has three quotas. Only three of you can participate in the Upper Courtyard’s grand competition.

"The rest of you will have to wait for the next opportunity.

"Furthermore, those with Golden Core Cultivation must also work harder. Because our courtyard has quite a few Primordial Spirits, the difficulty of your triennial exam will be raised, and you will be sent to a stronger area.

"But the rewards are also good.

"Especially Fang Yong and An Rong. Your progress is too slow.

"Even I can teach you now. Don’t you feel ashamed?"

An Rong was rendered speechless.

Fang Yong was also at a loss for words.

Jiang Man was somewhat surprised. Was it really considered a disgrace to be taught by Mr. Yan now?

"I heard that Mr. Yan’s grades were mediocre when she was in the Inner Sect, and she wasn’t particularly good at anything, so she couldn’t teach anymore after coming in," Ji Meng explained.

"Then it must indeed be quite tough for Mr. Yan to become a teaching assistant in the Inner Sect," Jiang Man sighed.

But he felt no sympathy. People only had things to talk about when everyone was suffering. For example, Tengu and Old Huang. While Old Huang was eating grass, could Tengu go out and enjoy himself? Doing things detrimental to unity was still a no-go.

"In addition, we’ve invited a combat teacher this year. It’s the Core Disciple, Mr. Ji," Yan Yiqiu announced.

Hearing this, Jiang Man and the others were somewhat surprised. Back in the Outer Sect, wasn’t Mr. Ji an Inner Sect Disciple? How did he become a Core Disciple now that they had entered the Inner Sect? If they became Core Disciples, would Mr. Ji become an Elder?

At this moment, Ji Hao walked out from inside. The moment he entered, he drew everyone’s attention with his tall, slender physique and handsome face. He was so perfect he hardly seemed human. Even the dazzling Miao Yulin was slightly inferior in comparison.

Ji Shoumo and the others subconsciously sat up straight. It should be known that they couldn’t even meet this peerless genius back in the Ji Family; they never expected to be guided by him here in the Wuyun Sect.

The three members of the Bai Family reacted as if facing a formidable enemy. Although they didn’t know much about the Ji Family, they had heard of this peerless genius. Even though he didn’t quite get along with the main family, he was still a member of the Ji Family after all. They only hoped he wouldn’t bully the weak and interfere in the affairs of their generation.

Ji Hao stood at the front, and Mr. Yan automatically stepped aside.

"Everyone, my name is Ji Hao. Some of you know me, and some have heard of me, but none of that matters. What matters is that I will treat everyone equally and teach you actual combat." As Ji Hao spoke, he casually glanced at the documents in his hand and said, "I have a general understanding of your statuses. I’ll briefly go over them."

He then looked at Miao Yulin. "Classmate Miao, you could rein in your Charm Technique a bit. We won’t strictly enforce dress codes, but your Charm Technique will affect the Cultivation of other Student Cultivators."

Miao Yulin nodded immediately. "Alright."

"Classmate An Rong." Mr. Ji looked at An Rong and said, "You’ve been a bit slack lately. Your Heart Spirit is restless. You can seek out Mr. Yan for some psychological counseling, and you’ll quickly stop being at the bottom of the class."

"Mr. Ji, the one at the bottom is Fang Yong," An Rong pointed out stubbornly.

Mr. Ji looked at Fang Yong and smiled, saying, "Fang Yong is indeed at the bottom, but he doesn’t need to improve anything for the time being."

He then looked at the crowd and said, "Alright, the two people with the biggest problems have been dealt with. Now I need to see your actual combat abilities."

Jiang Man glanced at Fang Yong and roughly understood the situation. For example, someone had once told him that tall trees catch the wind. It was just that he didn’t follow that path. He had the Evil God Old Huang, Ji Hao from the Ji Family, and Ting Fengyin. Although accompanied by danger, it wasn’t to the extent that he needed to hide his capabilities. However, he hadn’t touched anything useful in a long time, and his Talent had yet to unlock anything further.

After that came simple combat practice so Ji Hao could grasp their specific situations. Then, they could begin their Cultivation.

Meanwhile.

In the Overseas Islands.

Chen Shi set out to sea with some doubts; the subordinate of the mysterious Evil God had contacted him again today. Since their last transaction, the other party hadn’t reached out to him. They seemed to look down on their situation. Simply put, their abilities were too mediocre to allow for normal cooperation.

That was indeed the case. It had been years, and they still hadn’t handed over the one million Spiritual Sources to the Lord Envoy in full. Their capability was lacking by more than just a little bit. Therefore, the fact that the other party contacted him this time surprised him.

After arriving offshore, he sat on his boat and communicated with the other party. Before long, doubt surfaced in his eyes.

Chen Shi was somewhat worried. Someone wanted to kill the Lord Envoy? From the Sun and Moon Immortal Path? Yet, he couldn’t understand why. The two Evil Gods had no grudges, and the Lord Envoy was still studying in the Sect; it was even more impossible for him to provoke such a Great Evil God.

However, the subordinate of the mysterious Evil God seemed to have found a countermeasure for the Lord Envoy. This method was very simple: root out some of the Evil God’s spies. The other party was indeed quite formidable at this sort of thing, whereas people like Chen Shi lived in constant fear.

However, the other party asked him a very strange question, wondering if they had ever considered the Lord Envoy’s true identity. He didn’t answer, afraid that the other party might discover the Lord Envoy’s identity. Afterward, he went to consult the Immortal Spirit. She directly agreed to the cooperation, saying she would pass the message on to the Messenger when the time came. There was no reason to refuse such a good deal.

Chen Shi hesitated for a moment but still chose to ask for Spiritual Sources. No matter what the matter was, some Spiritual Sources had to be attached. This made success easier. The other side agreed. It seemed they weren’t lacking in Spiritual Sources. Such a person was exactly the type the Lord Envoy would like.

After that, the other party’s condition was to meet, which the Immortal Spirit agreed to as well. As such, the other party agreed to provide two hundred thousand Spiritual Sources, along with a list of spies. The Spiritual Sources were delivered slowly, but the list of spies found its way into Chen Shi’s hands not long after.

He checked it immediately. Many of the people were unknown to him. It wasn’t until he saw the very last name that he suddenly froze. He seemed somewhat unable to believe it.

Subsequently, he quietly erased the last name. He then contacted the Immortal Spirit, hoping to meet the Lord Envoy in person. Ling Hua Immortal Spirit gave a simple word of approval. She was extremely accommodating. After all, she was just passing on a message.

Later, Chen Shi received another question from the subordinate of the mysterious Evil God, asking, "Have you ever thought that your Lord Envoy might be a spy?"

Chen Shi fell silent.

He said nothing.

Meanwhile.

Tantai Xue furrowed her brows. "What is wrong with Ling Hua Immortal Spirit’s subordinate? I already told him their Messenger might be a spy. Why is there no emotional fluctuation from them? Shouldn’t they be panicked, terrified, or worried?

"The world..."

"The world shouldn’t be like this," Tantai Xiaotian chimed in to help.

Tantai Xue was speechless.

Indeed, it shouldn’t be like this.
