nAt this moment, looking at her companions being selected by the Peak Masters one after another, even Su Yan’er was a little anxious.

n

nAfter all, she was the empress.

n

nIf she really started as an outer sect disciple or even an odd-job disciple, would she be doomed?

n

n‘Why aren’t you guys choosing me?!’

n

nSu Yan’er was extremely frustrated.

n

nIf it was not for the fact that her memories had awakened so late, she would not have nearly failed the sect assessment.

n

nAs a result, Su Yan’er was getting angrier and angrier.

n

nSuddenly, Su Yan’er felt a gaze.

n

nRaising her head slightly, Su Yan’er immediately realized that the owner of this gaze was Su Xing, who was on the stage.

n

nSu Yan’er remembered Su Xing.

n

nAfter all, Su Xing had just walked past her.

n

nHowever, Su Yan’er did not have a particularly good impression of this young Junior Martial Uncle.

n

nWhen Su Xing passed by Su Yan’er’s side just now, Su Yan’er clearly felt that there was not the slightest fluctuation of Spiritual Qi from Su Xing’s entire body.

n

nHe was clearly an ordinary person!

n

nHe might have a little talent in cultivation, but compared to an ordinary immortal cultivator, the difference was like a firefly and a bright moon.

n

nAn ordinary immortal cultivator’s one night of cultivation was likely equivalent to two to three months of Su Xing’s bitter cultivation.

n

nIn that case, who would be able to persevere.

n

nNaturally, giving up on cultivation and becoming an ordinary person was the wisest choice.

n

nTherefore, Su Yan’er did not laugh at Su Xing or anything.

n

nHowever, Su Xing was indeed very handsome.

n

nSu Yan’er admitted that Su Xing was probably the most handsome man she had ever seen in her two lifetimes.

n

nEven she, who was an empress in her previous life, had never seen such a handsome man.

n

nUnfortunately, an ordinary person was an ordinary person.

n

nTo immortal cultivators, they had always been on a parallel path. It was impossible for them to intersect.

n

nNo matter how handsome Su Xing was, after a hundred years, he would still be nothing more than a pile of dirt.

n

nHowever, when she saw Su Xing’s burning gaze staring at her, Su Yan’er became a little impatient.

n

n‘What are you looking at?’

n

n‘Do you think that I will fall for you?’

n

nSu Yan’er snorted and turned her little face to the side.

n

nThe problem was that at this moment, Su Yan’er realized that other than Su Xing, all the other Peak Masters on the stage looked exactly the same.

n

nTo be able to become the Peak Master of the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect, one must be very old.

n

nEven if one could change one’s appearance after reaching a certain level of cultivation, it was impossible to achieve the appearance of Su Xing, who had the temperament of an immortal.

n

nCompared to those old men, Su Xing became more and more handsome.

n

nHe had charm and temperament.

n

nUnfortunately, he was just an ordinary person.

n

nThe other Peak Masters were so cold that Su Yan’er had no choice but to look in Su Xing’s direction.

n

n‘Does she actually dare to meet my gaze?’

n

nSu Xing thought in surprise.

n

nSu Xing could clearly sense that Su Yan’er’s eyes did not have a trace of respect.

n

nOn the other hand, the other people in the Nine Peaks Square all had a look of fear and trepidation in their eyes.

n

nIn fact, Su Xing even saw a trace of calmness in Su Yan’er’s big eyes.

n

n‘I’m afraid this girl is not that simple!’

n

nAs Su Xing was thinking, Zhuang Changhe’s voice interrupted his thoughts.

n

n“Martial Nephew Su Xing, it’s your turn.”

n

nSu Xing looked at the square. As expected, Su Yan’er was not selected.

n

nNot only Su Yan’er but many other disciples who had not been selected by the Peak Masters were dejected.

n

nIf Su Xing had not selected them, they would have been assigned to be outer sect disciples and odd-job disciples according to their strength.

n

nHowever, if Su Xing had chosen them, there would still be a glimmer of hope.

n

nSu Xing directly walked down from the stage and walked into the crowd.

n

nSeeing Su Xing walk over, everyone cast expectant gazes.

n

nAfter all, this was the last chance. Even if the Sunset Peak was much weaker than the other peaks, it was at least better than starting from as outer sect disciples or even odd-job disciples!

n

n“I wonder how many disciples is Martial Nephew Su Xing going to choose this time.”

n

nA Peak Master could not help but say as he watched Su Xing walk down from the stage.

n

n“How many will he choose? If it wasn’t for Junior Sister Ling’er being forced into a corner, how could she possibly accept a disciple with her stubborn character? I guess Junior Sister Ling’er was the one who caused Martial Nephew Su Xing to replace her in accepting a disciple this time.”

n

n“Indeed, if he would choose someone to become a disciple of the sunset peak, I would be surprised.”

n

n“That’s right…”

n

nThe stage was abuzz with discussion. At this moment, Su Xing also directly walked in front of Su Yan’er.

n

nThe corner of his mouth revealed an extremely bright smile.

n

n“Are you interested in joining our Sunset Peak?”

n

nSu Yan’er could not help but subconsciously swallow a mouthful of saliva.

n

nHer eyes were even looking at Su Xing as he blinked his eyes.

n

nSu Xing had just walked in front of her. The charming smile that he revealed directly caused the female disciples at the side to immediately become excited.

n

nEven Su Yan’er felt her heart race at this moment.

n

n‘Wasn’t this fellow just a little handsome?’

n

n‘He doesn’t have much strength’

n

n‘Could it be that being handsome could be useful?’

n

n‘Could it be used as a cultivation resource?’

n

n‘Su Yan’er, you must hold back!’

n

nWhen Su Xing said, “Are you willing to join My Sunset Peak?”

n

nBefore Su Yan’er could open her mouth to reply, a group of female disciples behind her said.

n

n“Martial Uncle Su Xing, I’m willing!”

n

n“I’m willing, I’m willing, I’m willing!”

n

n“He’s too handsome, how can Martial Uncle Su Xing be so handsome!”

n

n“I can admire this smile for the rest of my life!”

n

nSu Yan’er frowned.

n

nOn the stage, a Peak Master snorted coldly.

n

n“Right now, it’s the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect’s disciple acceptance ceremony. All of you are making such a racket, what kind of etiquette is this!?”

n

nSeeing that the Peak Master had lost his temper, the square immediately quieted down.

n

nZhuang Changhe looked around the square and did not say anything.

n

nHowever, there was still a trace of envy, jealousy, and hatred in his heart.

n

nThey were both men, but why was Su Xing so popular?

n

nWhy?

n

n“Martial Nephew Su Xing has received Junior Sister Ling’er’s true inheritance!”

n

n“Are you saying that Junior Sister Ling’er only chooses the best-looking disciples and not the ones with the strongest talent?”

n

n“That’s right. Nonetheless, I almost lost my cool just now and wanted to choose the girl.”

n

nJust as one of the Peak Masters finished speaking, everyone on the stage immediately looked towards him.

n

nA wave of awkwardness flashed across that Peak Master’s face as he hurriedly explained.

n

n“What I mean is, I feel that although this girl is a little weak now, she might suddenly display great strength later on. Everyone has their own opportunities, isn’t that right?”

n

nSeveral Peak Masters, including the Sect Master Zhuang Changhe, all cast looks of disdain.

n

nDid he even believe in what he said?

n

nMoreover, to change the talent of an ordinary immortal cultivator, even if the patriarch of the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect came, there was nothing he could do!

n

n“Sect Master, are we really going to let Martial Nephew Su Xing choose Su Yan’er? You should know that this disciple acceptance ceremony is very important to the Sunset Peak. The sect competition is coming soon. If the Sunset Peak doesn’t show any results, it will be troublesome!”

n

nWith his hands behind his back, Zhuang Changhe turned his head slightly and said, “Do you think that there are other people in the square who can lead the Sunset Peak to glory in the sect competition?”

n

nZhuang Changhe was right.

n

nThere was less than a year left until the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect’s sect competition.

n

nWithin the disciples who had just joined, other than some extremely talented prodigies, the other newcomers had no fighting strength at all.

n

nHowever, the problem was that these extremely talented prodigies had already been chosen by the other Peak Masters.

n

nIt was as if they sensed Zhuang Changhe’s plans for the Sunset Peak. Thus, the other Peak Masters did not waste any more time.

n

n“I’m willing to join the Sunset Peak.”

n

nSu Yan’er said in neither servile nor rejecting manner.
