nWho Will Be at the Bottom?

nSeeing this scene, everyone was stunned. They were shocked to their core.

nNo matter how one looked at it, the power that Zhou Yun was currently emitting was definitely above the fifth layer of Qi cultivation.

nThis could not be faked!

nWhat happened to him being at the first layer of Qi cultivation?

nMany of the disciples at the third and fourth layer of Qi cultivation turned sullen immediately.

nIf Zhou Yun was no longer at the bottom, then who else would be at the bottom? Was it them?

nEveryone was shocked to the point of being at a loss for words.

nAt this moment, their minds were blank.

nThis scene also caught Su Wanyi’s attention, and her mouth opened slightly.

nA trace of surprise flashed across her beautiful eyes as she looked at Zhou Yun.

nShe was also in disbelief.

nIt was because of Zhou Yun’s reputation in Spirit Valley.

nShe had long heard that he was at the first layer of Qi cultivation.

nShe didn’t pay much attention to him back then.

nLater on, because Qiao’er often mentioned him, she even made a trip to check him out.

n“I remember that three months ago, he was still at the first layer of Qi cultivation. He showed no sign of improvement,” Su Wanyi muttered to herself.

nHer beautiful eyes looked at Zhou Yun with a hint of disbelief.

nThree months ago, he was still at the first layer of Qi cultivation. Now, he had actually reached the fifth layer?

nHad he been hiding his strength, or did he train himself up with his talent?

nSu Wanyi didn’t continue to ponder about this matter. Either possibility was astonishing.

nShe cast away all these thoughts and looked at Zhou Yun again with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.

nWhat kind of person was he?

nShe was a little curious.

n“Everyone will eventually improve. Isn’t that normal?” Zhou Yun patted Qiao’er’s head, brushing it off like it was nothing.

nHis actions stirred up the emotions of the crowd.

nZhou Yun did not care about their anger.

nHe turned his head to look at the timer in the room and realized that half an hour had passed.

nTime was precious, and he could not afford to waste a single second.

nAfter all, time was money!

nZhou Yun quickly bade farewell to Su Wanyi and Qiao’er and started preparing to refine the pills.

n“Senior Sister, Qiao’er, time is running out. I have to practice my alchemy!”

nSu Wanyi glanced at the timer in the alchemy room and nodded understandingly.

nQiao’er pouted her little mouth and looked at Zhou Yun reluctantly.

nHer pitiful expression drew the sympathy of everyone.

nAll of them had strong desires to comfort Qiao’er.

nHowever, as soon as they stepped forward, they were forced to retreat by their senior sister’s gaze.

nAfter Zhou Yun bade farewell to the two girls, he entered the alchemy room and closed the doors and windows.

nWhen everyone saw this scene, they were all extremely jealous.

nSenior Sister and Qiao’er were both goddesses.

nIf they were Zhou Tun, they would be more than happy to chat with the two goddesses.

nIt would be a great privilege for them to be able to get close to the two goddesses.

nYet, Zhou Yun actually thought that they were in his way?

nWas he actually focusing on refining pills at such a time?

nWas he still a man?

nHe really didn’t know how blessed he was!

nJi Ha had seen everything that had happened since the start.

nHe quickly took out his voice transmission stone to inform Qin Xiu.

nDuring this period, he had already called the latter three times.

nHe didn’t know what Qin Xiu was doing, but he still hadn’t come over.

nJi Ha knew that Qin Xiu had a crush on Qiao’er.

nFrom the current situation, it seemed that Qiao’er was very close to Zhou Yun.

n“Why aren’t you coming over?”

nJi Ha held the voice transmission stone tightly as his heart burned with anxiety, but there was still no reply.

nOn the other side, in the Cave of the Elders of Spirit Valley, Qin Xiu was kneeling on the ground.

nAn old man in a dark robe was sitting in front of him.

n“Qin Xiu, you’re about to achieve a breakthrough. Don’t go running around for the next three months. Calm down and cultivate in seclusion. Prepare for the assessment which will happen in three months. Do you understand?”

nQin Xiu raised his head and replied, “Yes, Master.”

nThe person in front of him was none other than his master. Moreover, he was an elder of Spirit Valley with high standing and power.

nHe naturally listened to his master’s words.

n“Stand up!”

nQin Xiu stood up and looked up at his master.

nHis master advised, “You must train hard over the next three months and try to break through to the foundation establishment stage. Only then will you have the confidence to seize the top spot in the assessment.”

n“Only by seizing the top spot will you have the chance to participate in the secret realm’s trial with the others. If you fail, you’ll never have another chance! Do you understand?”

n“I know, Master!” Qin Xiu nodded in acknowledgement.

nLooking at his disciple, the old man nodded with a satisfied look and then took out a bottle of Vitality Pills from his sleeve and handed it to Qin Xiu.

n“Cultivate well!”

nQin Xiu looked at the bottle of pills and felt a burst of excitement.

nHe didn’t expect his master to place so much importance on this assessment that the latter would even give him a bottle of Vitality Pills.

nThe Vitality Pills were the best medicine for those below the foundation establishment stage.

nFor cultivation at the Qi cultivation stage, it was of great benefit. It could replenish spiritual Qi and strengthen one’s foundation.

nIt also had the most powerful ability, which was to purify the spiritual Qi in one’s body.

nIt could increase the chances of a cultivator advancing to the foundation establishment stage.

nThe purer the spiritual Qi of a cultivator, the higher the chances of them breaking through to the foundation establishment stage.

nIn the outside world, these pills were highly sought after by rogue cultivators below the foundation establishment stage.

n“Many thanks, Master!” Qin Xiu looked at the pills in his hand and knelt down to the old man again to express his gratitude.

n“Mm, go!” The old man stroked his beard and nodded.

nHis master thought to himself, “My hopes and dreams are all on you, so don’t let me down!”

nQin Xiu walked out of the Cave of the Elders; his eyes were burning with ecstasy.

nWith these Vitality Pills, he didn’t have to worry about not being able to break through to the foundation establishment stage.

nHe was in a good mood when he felt the voice transmission stone vibrating. He took it out.

nAs soon as he took it out, Ji Ha’s voice was transmitted over.

n“Bro, Zhou Yun is actually refining pills. Do you want to come over and take a look? Hahaha. I’m about to die from laughter!”

n“Bro, why aren’t you here yet? You will miss Zhou Yun in action. Hurry!”

nQin Xiu couldn’t help but smile when he heard Ji Ha’s words.

nNot everyone could refine pills!

n“Bro, Qiao’er came to the alchemy room, and she’s with Zhou Yun. Senior Sister is also here!”

nWhat?

nQin Xiu was originally immersed in laughing at Zhou Yun.

nHowever, when he heard that Qiao’er was with Zhou Yun, his smile instantly faded.

nJi Ha’s message wasn’t over yet.

n“Why aren’t you here yet? Qiao’er and Zhou Yun are talking and laughing. I wonder what’s going on!”

n“Hurry up!”

nJi Ha’s voice sounded more and more urgent, and Qin Xiu’s face had long turned gloomy.

nWhen he heard that Zhou Yun was together with his beloved junior Qiao’er, he was instantly enraged.

nHe cursed, “Zhou Yun, you seek your own death!”

nHis expression turned cold as he headed towards the Alchemy Pavilion.

nEnraged, he cast aside the words that his master had just said to him.
