"Zhi Rou... Senior Sister..." The corpse suddenly half-opened its eyes, staring intently at Zhi Rou.
"Ahhh!" Zhi Rou was so frightened that she fell to the ground with a thud.
"Save... me..."
After speaking, Liu Ying Ying fell silent.
Zhi Rou's face flushed red. Having made a fool of herself in front of so many people, she found it hard to face them.
She roughly dragged the person who had already fainted into the courtyard, causing the disciples of the sect to gossip endlessly.
Some said that Zhi Rou had brought too much misfortune upon herself, and that good and evil were rewarded.
Others said that she had provoked someone she shouldn't have.
In an instant, these rumors spread with lightning speed, reaching the ears of the Sect Master of the Purple Cloud Sect.
"Oh? Liu Ying Ying was harmed? And then left at Zhi Rou's doorstep?"
The Purple Cloud Sect Master, still wearing his snow-white mask, sat in the main seat, while the elders bowed below.
Did that woman dare to be so arrogant?
After all, the consequence of her actions was to make an enemy of the entire Purple Cloud Sect.
She was just a newly promoted woman, what power could she possibly have?
He propped his chin on his hand, a smile forming on his lips. This was interesting; he really wanted to see this woman for himself.
"Hahahaha! Hahahahaha!" The Sect Master laughed with delight, while the elders trembled in fear, not daring to breathe.
On the other side, Bai Ran stood in front of five elders who were fighting, holding her head in frustration.
Not long ago.
"What! This young girl is of both light and dark attributes?"
"And a pill refiner??"
"And she's contracted a divine beast???"
Sect Master Xiong scratched his ear in annoyance. "Old Lin, why are you shouting so loud? I'm not deaf, but you're making me one."
Lin Quan, the Grand Elder of Que Tian Sect, flew towards Bai Ran like a madman, his fiery gaze making Bai Ran shiver.
This look was so familiar; she had experienced it at Star Picking Academy.
"And she smoothly passed all the potential assessments," Elder Yuan chuckled, stroking his beard.
They had truly found a treasure this time.
"Young girl, do you have a preferred master? How about me?" Fourth Elder Du Zhengxing quietly walked up to Bai Ran and asked softly.
"Old Du, how dare you be the first!" Fifth Elder Pang Yu yanked Du Elder away.
"Ahem! Logically speaking, it should be my turn to take a disciple."
"Impossible! I want this little one!"
"Hey! Old Lin! Can't you let me have it just once?"
...
As they argued, the five men actually started wrestling like children.
The entire room was in chaos, damaged and dilapidated.
Sect Master Xiong covered his eyes, unable to watch.
"Little girl, if you were to take a master, who would you choose?" He glanced at Bai Ran beside him and asked curiously.
Bai Ran paused, thinking for a moment.
"I won't choose anyone."
Sect Master Xiong was stunned by her answer and asked, "Why?"
She raised her head and met Sect Master Xiong's gaze. "Because soon, I will ascend to the upper realm."
The boldness and confidence in Bai Ran's eyes made her shine.
"Hahahaha!" Sect Master Xiong burst into laughter, covering his mouth.
What a confident little girl!
Then let this old man see! What kind of miracle will you create!
"Bang!"
A shoe, flying from nowhere, landed squarely on Sect Master Xiong's smiling face.
The air froze. The five men stared at him, each swallowing hard.
It's over...
They've gone too far...
Sect Master Xiong's face turned red at a visible speed.
"You! All of you get out!"
With a roar, the five men nervously fled at top speed. The matter of Bai Ran taking a master was thus dropped.
Sect Master Xiong took a deep breath to calm himself.
"Little girl, here, your identity token." He handed over a silver token with a large character 'Que' engraved on it.
Bai Ran nodded and accepted the token.
"By the way, little girl, do you know about the Prodigy Ranking within the sect?"
Since the little girl's ambitions lay elsewhere, she would surely come into contact with that list.
"Prodigy Ranking?" Bai Ran looked at Sect Master Xiong with confusion.
"It's the ranking of all disciples under twenty in the middle realm. The higher the rank, the stronger the strength."
"And the resources for the top ten on the Prodigy Ranking are countless. Little girl, you can go and learn about it."
Sect Master Xiong patted Bai Ran's shoulder in a carefree manner.
"Yes, I understand." With that, Bai Ran left.
Watching her departing back, Elder Xiong felt immense emotion. The future belonged to the young.
Back in her courtyard, Bai Ran immediately sat down to cultivate.
Although her strength was top-notch in the lower realm, it was already at the bottom in the middle realm. Now, the most important thing was to improve her strength.
"Gray..."
Recalling the gray color tested by the stone, she felt something was wrong.
Clearly, besides light and dark, there were traces of other elements within her.
"Gray, little one, you're quite something," Little Zi said from within her spatial dimension.
"What do you mean?" Bai Ran asked.
Little Zi, with her hands on her hips, seemed a little proud. "Gray means you have all seven basic attributes mixed together, forming gray."
"In other words! Little one, you possess nine attributes! All attributes except for space!"
His tail wagged happily, his nostrils flaring with pride.
This little one was actually so formidable; even he only had five attributes.
"However, there's a downside," Little Zi changed the subject.
"You need to spend a lot of spiritual energy and a lot of time to cultivate, otherwise, your attributes will be as good as non-existent."
So that's how it was. Bai Ran nodded and returned to her cultivation. https:/
Having not slept all night, time flew by, and it was time for classes the next day.
Bai Ran opened her eyes. Du Lin nuzzled her hand, its big eyes looking somewhat adorable.
"Master, I'm hungry."
Hungry? Fierce beasts need to eat?
The little ones in her spatial dimension survived by absorbing spiritual energy from the air; they didn't need to eat anything. She didn't understand fierce beasts and didn't know what to feed him.
Bai Ran gently stroked his cool little head. "What do you eat?"
Du Lin tilted his head. "Du Lin doesn't know."
She stood up, and the little snake coiled obediently around her wrist.
"I'll get you something to eat after class." The person and the snake headed to the class location.
Today was a class on light attributes. In the empty room, there was only one disciple sitting inside.
The disciple sat far in the back row, his head buried, fast asleep.
"You must be the new student Bai Ran, please sit anywhere," the instructor was a gentle and kind-looking middle-aged woman.
Bai Ran sat down.
At this moment, the only disciple also woke up.
He was extremely handsome and sunny, but his temper was exceedingly volatile.
"Don't you know this is the cultivation area for light attributes? Get out!"
