What?
Sing… sing a song?
I have never heard of needing to sing a song when cultivating!
Hearing Yang Zhen’s words, everyone felt baffled. The things made by a jerk are indeed jerky.
Now think about it, a bunch of apprentices from the Spiritual Studies Palace, staring at an ink treasure that looks like a ‘squeezed-out toad pee,’ singing in unison… it was simply an eyesore.
Everyone stared blankly at Yang Zhen, and someone muttered to themselves,
“Who knew a person could be this flirtatious?”
The rest of them blinked, nodding hurriedly. The way they looked at Yang Zhen became even stranger.
Elder Huo looked awkward. He looked at Yang Zhen, with a last glimmer of hope, and asked, “Young friend Yang, what kind of song do you need to sing to comprehend this most dazzling ethnic style?
“To comprehend the most dazzling ethnic style, naturally you must sing the most dazzling ethnic style. Oh, it’s the song from earlier. Don’t worry, just hold your breath, concentrate, and you can easily learn it.”
Looking at Yang Zhen speaking as though it was not a big deal at all, the corners of everyone’s mouth began twitching.
This song was so easy to learn? Can you… actually sing it?
In a group, people held back their laughter and looked at Elder Huo’s embarrassed face. It didn’t take long for quiet laughter to break out.
This kind of treasure was truly a hilarious pain in the ass.
However, condensing the literary mind was an extremely difficult task. Even in a large sect like the Spiritual Studies Palace, the disciples needed to spend a significant amount of time contemplating and refining their skills, reading countless books, creating countless drawings, before achieving success.
But now that they had a surefire tool, the most dazzling ethnic style. Just focus, contemplate, leam this song, and then succeed in condensing the literary mind. Clearly, such a powerful heirloom treasure wouldn’t gather dust.
Just… it was so damn awkward!
Elder Huo decided if the Spiritual Studies Palace later started applying the most dazzling ethnic style, he would advise disciples to cultivate alone; pairing up wouldn’t be allowed.
The old palace master didn’t worry about this. In her view, if the disciples were able to condense the literary mind so conveniently and quickly, what did singing a song matter?
The old woman chuckled as she looked at Yang Zhen, saying, “I quite like your gift. Given your talent and potential, you’re more than qualified to join the Spiritual Studies Palace!”
Upon hearing these words, everyone was startled. This was especially true for those who had always aspired to join the Spiritual Studies Palace; their faces were filled with envy.
Joining the Spiritual Studies Palace meant a limitless future. Although fortune played a part in Yang Zhen’s opportunity, who could say he hadn’t achieved this with his own talent?
Everyone’s gaze shifted uneasily to Yang Zhen; however, to everyone’s surprise, Yang Zhen shook his head!
He shook his head!
Seeing this motion, everyone in the room, even those at the Tribulation
Crossing Period, was taken aback.
Did Yang Zhen actually refuse?
The old Palace Master and Ning Wuque looked at each other, then shifted their puzzled gazes back to Yang Zhen. They asked, “What do you mean by this?” Yang Zhen smiled and said, “I appreciate the kindness of the Palace Master, but I’ve gotten used to leisurely life. I fear it would be inconvenient for me to join the Spiritual Studies Palace, so I better not.”
Whoosh !
Upon hearing these words, the crowd let out a gasp. They looked at Yang Zhen as though they were looking at a fool.
He… he refused!
Yang Zhen actually turned down the Palace Master’s goodwill!
This time, even the old Palace Master revealed a surprised expression. She asked, “Aren’t you going to reconsider?”
Reconsider?
There was just no way. There was never going to be reconsidering in this life. Yang Zhen shook his head like a rattle drum as if joining Spiritual Studies Palace was a big loss, “No more consideration, really, no need to consider anymore!”
At this point, Yang Zhen sighed, looked up at the sky and spoke with an air of melancholy, “Once a person gets used to being alone for long, they get used to the loneliness!”
This…
Everyone was stunned, looking at Yang Zhen’s disheartened expression, each one itched to rush up and give him a kick.
Damn it, could he be any more shameless?
The old Palace Master chuckled, looked at Yang Zhen meaningfully, and said, “That’s fine too. Everyone has their own ambition. Young men should tackle storms and thunders. However, if one day you want to settle down somewhere, you can come to Spiritual Studies Palace. As long as this old woman is still around, we will have a place for you as a Missionary Elder.”
Hearing the old lady’s words, even the Palace Master Liu was taken by surprise, about to speak but kept silent when the old lady glared at her.
Yang Zhen dumbly watched the old Palace Master. He instantly regretted it. Damn his big mouth. Why did he have to gaze at the sky? Now he’d missed the opportunity to rise through the ranks. Missionary Elder, sounded like such a big deal, didn’t it?
In the crowd, Ning Wuque was looking confusedly at Yang Zhen, at the old lady, at the Palace Master Liu, a look of despair on his face.
The way things were unfolding had entirely derailed from his plan.
Hua Youyue wore a constant faint smile on her face as if she was not surprised at whatever decision Yang Zhen made.
On the other hand, Mo Xueling seemed to heave a sigh of relief for some reason and gave Yang Zhen a slight glare.
Contrarily, when Yang Zhen thought about holding a position, his eyes sparkled and he turned to the old Palace Master and said, “We’ll talk about the Missionary Elder position later. Earlier, you said that whoever had the best gift would be the representative of the Rogue Practitioners for this alliance. Does that still stand?”
It was only when they heard Yang Zhen’s words that everyone remembered that he was vying for the position of the representative. Everyone exchanged glances.
Yang Zhen was right-the one whose gift was favored most by the old Palace Master would be the leader of the Rogue Practitioners for this alliance. That was the agreement among them.
But none of them had expected Yang Zhen to emerge as the winner at the end. For a moment, all the Rogue Practitioners exchanged sideways glances, filled with hesitation.
If Yang Zhen were a strong Practitioner in the Tribulation Crossing Period, no one would have anything to say. However, Yang Zhen was still in the Void Cultivation Stage. Among the Rogue Practitioners present, there were those with far higher cultivation than him.
If they were to let Yang Zhen be the leader, it might be hard for him to gam everyone’s acceptance, at least those with higher cultivation than Yang Zhen might feel uncomfortable.
Ning Wuque, who had been in a state of disbelief upon hearing Yang Zhen’s words, suddenly had a spark in his eyes and a killer intent that flashed by. Grinning, he said, “Sure, we did agree on that. In the field of Rogue Practitioners, the one who could present the gift that the old Palace Master loves the most would be the leader of the alliance. However…” Saying this, Ning Wuque looked at Yang Zhen with a playful expression and continued, “But nothing should be taken too casually, just like the matter of this leadership. Brother Yang, do you think if we elect you as the leader, can you lead us all?”
Without letting Yang Zhen respond, Ning Wuque added, “If you’re made the leader, not to mention the doubts of other Rogue Practitioners, even I would be the first one to oppose!”
upon hearing Ning Wuque’s words, the other Rogue Practitioners nodded subconsciously, clearly agreeing with him.
Yang Zhen seemed taken aback. He looked at Ning Wuque asking curiously, “What would it take for you to agree not to oppose me?
Looking at Ning Wuque’s face, Yang Zhen was rubbing his hands together.
Ning Wuque seemed entirely unaware, with a deep smile playing at the corner of his mouth. He stared at Yang Zhen and said, “Among the Rogue Practitioners, there are many elders in the Tribulation Crossing Period. They naturally wouldn’t make a move on you; that would be too unfair!
Saying this, Ning Wuque smiled arrogantly. He addressed the crowd and said, “Despite my inadequacies, I wish to request the elders to allow me to test Yang Dingtian’s capabilities. Let’s see if he is really eligible for the leadership position. Would you, elders, grant me this opportunity?”
Hearing this, everyone was taken aback and stared in shock at Ning Wuque. If he’s going to test Yang Zhen, would Yang Zhen even stand a chance of surviving?
“You sure you want to fight me?” Yang Zhen looked at Ning Wuque with an odd expression.
PS: I miscalculated yesterday night and dozed off unexpectedly. It seems I was more tired than I thought, my apologies.
These two chapters are still due, I will try to make up for them when I gather the energy. Oh, damn it..
