An Annoying Woman, Showing Off Once More

Currently, there was a line of a few thousand people long, in between Xue Bai and the stage, so until then, Xue Bai was stuck waiting in line. And while Xue Bai could skip it by revealing his identity, he had already shown his personality as a righteous potential disciple to the Core Elder a few days ago, and using his identity to suppress others didn't match that.

So albeit reluctantly, Xue Bai entered the line and waited for his turn.

Thankfully, the line went by quickly as all one had to do was to touch their personal jade token to the array formation that had all of the scores. After that, their score would be displayed on the large expansive screen that was visible everywhere in the city square.

However, only the 1000 top scores were given the spotlight, as the bottom 4 thousand were only given a small spot on the screen.

The reason for this was obvious, as, besides the participants who were in the bottom 4 thousand, no one cared for the bottom rankers. Instead, everyone's focus was on the top 1000 who would pass the trial. Especially the top 100, as those would be key figures in the upcoming genius-filled era.

In line, Xue Bai would every once in a while have someone try and talk to him so as to build a relationship, but thankfully after giving the perpetrator a cold glance, they would always stop.

Until one didn't, at least.

"Young Duke Xue, how were your gains in the second trial? I heard some other participants saying that it should've been extremely hard for someone with your cultivation base. After all, this trial was more focused on the participants with an Organ Tempering Realm cultivation base." A lively-looking girl asked in rapid fire.

The girl, who was a chatterbox, was a youthful-looking girl with a slender and graceful figure. Unlike the innocently seductive appearance of Xiao'er, this girl had the charm of the girl next door. Infinitely cheerful and curious about the expansive world.

And like her appearance, as soon as she saw Xue Bai in line, she made her way toward him and started talking to him like one would an old friend. And to this odd act, Xue Bai had no idea how to get the girl to shut up.

He had already given her the cold gaze that had deterred countless others, yet she didn't even so much as grow a frown and continued to speak her thoughts.

"Sister, please, one at a time! You've tossed out 20 questions. I can only answer so many!" Xue Bai cried out.

He thought that if he stayed silent long enough, the girl would eventually find him boring and leave, but not only did she not, but her enthusiasm seemed to be higher!

Out of the many things that Xue Bai had cultivated in this new world, his social skills were definitely not one of them. So in the face of such an extrovert, Xue Bai didn't know what to do.

"Finally, you responded!" After hearing Xue Bai finally speak, an even wider smile appeared on the lively girl's face.

"How can I not? If I didn't, my ear would fall off before my turn would come." Xue Bai bitterly responded.

"My Father told me that if someone ignores me, then it means that I didn't try hard enough." The lively girl proudly announced as she placed her hands on her hips, highlighting her figure.

Ignoring both the display of her figure and the odd advice her father gave her, Xue Bai reiterated himself once more.

"I can answer a few questions, as we are going to stay in this line for another 10 or 20 minutes at the least. But! One at a time, your voice isn't very pleasing to the ears, and you also talk very fast. So speak slowly and calmly." Xue Bai explained his thoughts, though they were rather blunt.

Not at all phased by Xue Bai's blunt speech, the girl asked her first question without much thought.

"How well do you think you're going to do in this trial?" The girl asked.

"Does it matter to you so much where you need to bother me so much? I'll pass with flying colors." Xue Bai rolled his eyes as he replied.

"Hehe!" The lively girl didn't seem to mind his vague answer and only continued to shoot out more questions, rapid fire.

Xue Bai, still not wanting to talk to a random girl he didn't know, continued to give vague and unclear answers. However, oddly the girl didn't seem to care and even continued asking until the point where Xue Bai was allowed onto the stage.

"Young Duke Xue, please place your jade token here." The Inner Disciple, who manned the array formation, gently instructed.

Giving a small nod in agreement, Xue Bai complied and placed his jade token onto the array, where soon, his score of 2650 appeared on the screen. His score gave him the position of 632.

As the scoring event was more than three-quarters of the way done, Xue Bai's score didn't reach as high as he thought, but still, with how low people had their expectations of him, Xue Bai's placement shocked everyone.

Most people were in the thinking that Xue Bai would most likely only place in the bottom echelons of the top 1000, while some even thought that he would embarrass himself and not even reach the top 1000. But, no one expected the place he managed to get.

However, with shock also came unacceptance, and very soon, rather than cheers, there were many voices denouncing Xue Bai's score. Saying that he either cheated or had another, stronger youth killing demonic beasts for him while he reaped the benefits.

The voices were so loud that even the Inner Disciple manning the array formation wanted to say something, but before he could, Xue Bai made another move that stunned the crowd.

Pulling out the corpse of the Qi Sea Realm lion that he had killed, Xue Bai stunned the crowd into silence this time.

The Inner Disciple in front of Xue Bai was the first to get out of their stupor.

"Young Duke Xue, this lion, you killed it yourself?" The Inner Disciple questioned skeptically.

And while his question was a stupid one, who could blame him? Xue Bai's cultivation wasn't hidden from him, and he could clearly see that Xue Bai was only at the 3rd stage of the Bone Strengthening Realm. So for him to pull out the corpse of a demonic beast in the Qi Sea Realm, the Inner Disciple was rightfully skeptical.

"Yes, I did, Senior Brother!" Xue Bai simply replied.

"Forgive me for being invasive, but may I ask how you did so? The Senior Brothers in the sect might not accept it if you don't give us a reason." The Inner Disciple spoke hesitantly.

The rules for the second trial were that as long as someone killed a demonic beast in the Qi Sea Realm, they were allowed instant admission into the Inner Sect. However, the Inner Sect was filled with cultivators in the Qi Sea and Dharma Idol Realm. So it would be extremely hard for them to have to accept a 3rd stage Bone Strengthening 13-year-old into their fold.

In the Soaring Sword Sect, it didn't matter whether Xue Bai was the only child of two Peak stage Domain Lords or was a Young Duke of The Great Xuan Empire. It only mattered how strong he was.

And compared to his soon-to-be Senior Brothers and Sisters, Xue Bai wasn't nearly strong enough to be accepted by them.

That's why even though he was asking for Xue Bai's presumably trump card, which was a known taboo, the Inner Disciple didn't look very troubled about it.

Xue Bai, also predicting such a thing, wasn't phased by the intrusive question. Instead, he proceeded to pull out his formation flags and show them off.

While showing the gravity field array formation to the world would definitely take away its secrecy, it still didn't take away any of its surprise factors. For example, even if someone knew that Xue Bai had the gravity field array formation, how could they dodge it?

It was undetectable, and its effects were extremely strong. So revealing its existence didn't bother Xue Bai much.

"Senior Brother, as you know, my Father is a well-known Formation Master, and me as his son, I, of course, learned some under him. And this array formation can, with an extreme amount of preparation, suppress an existence in the Qi Sea Realm." Xue Bai explained as he set up the formation around the Inner Disciple.

After he finished explaining it, Xue Bai also proceeded to activate it, summoning a huge suppressive force onto the shoulders of the Inner disciple.

Thankfully the Inner Disciple was in the Dharma Idol Realm, so he didn't collapse into the ground like the others Xue Bai used the gravity field array formation on.

"This is indeed something someone in the Qi Sea Realm couldn't take." The Inner Disciple nodded approvingly.

After this, he proceeded to input Xue Bai's score on the screen, fully convinced of the youth's strength.

"Next!"

The scoring ceremony continued peacefully.
