nThe famous sects of the Central Plains would gather.

nAnd they gathered not to drink tea and chat but to spar.

nSpeaking of which, everyone sparred in martial arts, exchanging what they had and did not have.

nBut secretly, there was an unwritten rule.

nThe sect with disciples who did well in the competition would have a high status in the next three years.

nThe next competition would be held three years later in whichever sect’s territory, which won first place in the competition.

nYou Yilin had obtained the title of the number one disciple of the Central Plains by an overwhelming advantage three years ago.

nIt was because of this achievement that You Yilin successfully became the main disciple of the Baiyun Sect.

nNow that the day of the next competition was right around the corner after three years passed in the blink of an eye.

nAccording to You Yilin, he could not participate in the competition this time.

nIt was because only new disciples could attend the competition.

nThose who entered the sect three years ago could not participate in the competition again.

nYou Yilin conveyed a message to Lin Qi in his words.

nHe hoped that Lin Qi could obtain a good result in this competition and bring honor to Baiyun Sect.

nIt had to be said that You Yilin had also displayed his magnanimity on this point.

nHe did not seem to be worried that Lin Qi would surpass him at all.

nHe even had the vague intention of hoping that Lin Qi would improve quickly.

nHis magnanimity and vision were all things that ordinary people could not compare.

nAs a result, Lin Qi could not help but think highly of You Yilin.

nOf course, Lin Qi had to consider whether he would participate in the competition or not.

nTherefore, he didn’t agree immediately.

nAfter all, that competition didn’t seem to be of any benefit to Lin Qi at the moment.

nHe was just a passer-by in this world. Frankly speaking, the Baiyun Sect had nothing to do with Lin Qi.

nWhat Lin Qi needed to do now was to increase his strength and strive for a higher system evaluation.

nLin Qi washed up and fell asleep after considering that matter.

n…

nThe disciples of Baiyun Sect got up one after another and went to cultivate early the next morning.

nHowever, most of the disciples went to their respective masters to receive their masters’ teachings.

nOnly outer disciples would go to the public cultivation area and cultivate alone.

nThat was the rule of the Baiyun Sect, and it had been the same for thousands of years.

nBut everyone in the public training area had a strange expression on their faces that day.

nIt was because Lin Qi was also there!

nIt was uncomfortable for such a favored Son of Heaven to be with the outer disciples like them.

nThe feeling was like a lion among a group of rabbits.

nAlthough that lion would not harm the rabbits, the rabbits were still somewhat afraid.

nSure enough, an area was naturally vacated around where Lin Qi was.

nNo one dared to cultivate beside Lin Qi.

nLin Qi was happy about that.

nThat would instead provide him a peaceful and quiet environment.

n…

n“Junior Lin, you came to cultivate so early?”

nA familiar voice sounded from behind him. Lin Qi could not help but turn around to look.

nIt was You Yilin!

n“Senior, you’re early too.”

nThe two of them greeted each other in that way.

nYou Yilin glanced at Lin Qi and seemed to have thought of something. He smiled and said, “Oh right, Junior Lin hasn’t received a new cultivation method, right?”.

n“Although you’ve just entered the sect, I saw that you seem to be able to perform the Baiyun Mantra skillfully yesterday.”

n“Why don’t I teach you a new cultivation technique today? This way, you can also try to cultivate a new cultivation technique after you finish cultivating the Baiyun Mantra every day.”

nYou Yilin took the initiative to teach Lin Qi a new cultivation technique.

nThat would also be convenient for Lin Qi.

nAfter all, Lin Qi wouldn’t need to cultivate the Baiyun Mantra all day long with his aptitude.

nFrom what You Yilin knew, although Lin Qi had a higher talent for the Baiyun Mantra, he would continue to cultivate it.

nAfter all, the Baiyun Mantra was the Baiyun Sect’s basic cultivation technique. Cultivating any cultivation technique could not be done without the Baiyun Mantra.

nHowever, how would he know that Lin Qi had already cultivated the Baiyun Mantra to its peak at that moment?

nIn other words, he no longer needed to cultivate the Baiyun Mantra.

nHowever, Lin Qi did not intend to explain that.

nIt saved him the trouble of asking for it since You Yilin wanted to teach him a new cultivation technique.

n…

nYou Yilin took out a bamboo slip from his pocket upon seeing Lin Qi nod his head in agreement.

nOn the outside of this bamboo slip were four big words:

nFlowing Cloud Movement Technique.

nThat was one of the cultivation techniques of the Baiyun Sect.

nAlthough it was also a relatively low-level cultivation technique, it was something that ordinary outer disciples were not qualified to learn.

nYou Yilin did that because he cared about Lin Qi.

n“Thank you, Senior You.”

nLin Qi took the bamboo slip and thanked him politely.

nYou Yilin nodded slightly and said with a smile,

n“Junior Lin, about the competition I mentioned last night…”

nYou Yilin was a person with a lot of experience in dealing with the world.

nGenerally speaking, a person who had just received benefits from others would not be able to refuse at that time.

nBut was Lin Qi an ordinary person?

nNot at all.

n“I’m sorry, Senior You. I’ve already thought about this matter. I don’t want to participate in the competition.”

nLin Qi refused without any hesitation.

nIt made You Yilin feel a little awkward.

nHe couldn’t help but ask, “Junior Lin, why are you unwilling to participate?”

nYou Yilin couldn’t figure it out.

nNone of the young disciples did want to show off when they joined the Baiyun Sect.

nThat was a chance to shine.

nSome people might be worried that they would lose too badly and lose their reputation.

nBut Lin Qi did not have to worry because he was a genius!

nYou Yilin was very excited when he participated in the competition back then.

nIt was because that was a chance to make a name for himself.

nYou Yilin’s talent and hard work did not let down the opportunity he had at the same time.

nHe won!

nAnd he soared to the sky.

nTherefore, You Yilin could not understand Lin Qi’s reason for rejecting him.

nHowever, just as You Yilin was guessing the various reasons that Lin Qi might give.

nLin Qi opened his mouth, “I’m sorry, Senior You. I’m a low-profile person.”

n“…”

nEven You Yilin, the main disciple, felt his eyes twitch when he heard this.

nHe, Lin Qi, was a low-profile person?

nThen no one in the world would be high-profiled if he was low-profiled!

nWho was the one who made such a big commotion when he performed the Baiyun Mantra for the first time that made everyone shocked yesterday!’

nEven the sect master of the Baiyun Sect, Daoist Spiritual Master Yunxiao couldn’t help but invite Lin Qi to be his inner disciple.

nIt wasn’t over yet. Lin Qi even rejected the offer on the spot.

nAnd he f*cking claimed that he was low-profiled?
