Junior Sister is too competitive, she drastically alters the Joyful Union Sect.

Chapter 165 I am just a healer
Upon first seeing Yan Cai descend from the arena, he was immediately surrounded by several junior disciples who congratulated him and inquired about his well-being.

Xiao Ke walked up to Shen Youqing, stretched out his hand, and in his palm was a storage ring.

Seeing the storage ring Xiao Ke handed over, Shen Youqing stepped back warily. "What is this?"

She's terrified whenever she sees the storage ring Xiao Ke hands her!
Wait, that’s not right!
Didn't he give all his wealth to himself? He still has more?

"Congratulations!" A clear, melodious voice, like the gentle murmur of a cold spring, rang out. "Congratulations to Qingqing on winning first place."

Seeing that Shen Youqing did not reach out to take them, Xiao Ke directly pulled her hand, took the talismans from her hand, and put the storage ring on them.

"Last place is still first, right?" Shen Youqing joked, then said, "What do you need those talismans for? Their power is halved. Do you want me to redraw them for you?"

"Is that considered consolation?" Xiao Ke said, following Shen Youqing's words, and squeezed Shen Youqing's soft palm.

The value of those talismans wasn't in their use; to him, they were things that needed to be carefully preserved.

Before Shen Youqing could retract his hand, Xiao Ke grabbed it.

Sure enough!

"Alright." Shen Youqing put away the storage ring, then looked at Yue Xunzhu and Shen Quelin on the side.

Shen Quelin crossed his arms and deliberately blurted out, "Keep up the good work."

Shen Youqing looked directly at Yue Xunzhu, bypassing him.

"Jinjin did a great job," a gentle voice said. "Let your brother think about what reward you should get."

"Alright!" Shen Youqing smiled, then glared at Shen Quelin.

We need to find a way to beat him up!
“You must have been a Pixiu in your past life.” Shen Quelin held out his hand, a box in his palm. “Very powerful.”

How could he not prepare anything? It's really fun to tease Shen Youqing!
Of course, teasing her too much can be mischievous; otherwise, you'll only annoy her and end up in trouble.

Shen Youqing snatched the box and put it into his storage ring, saying, "That's more like it."

"The competition over there is over too, Qi Bumian won." Lin Jinyao walked up and said to her junior brothers and sisters, then turned to Shen Youqing and said, "Junior Sister, will I get a discount if I buy talismans from you in the future?"

"No discount needed!" Shen Youqing smiled, her eyes crinkling. "It's a gift for Second Senior Sister!"

!

Lin Jinyao's eyes lit up, and she pulled Shen Youqing into her arms, saying, "Junior Sister, you're my little sister from now on! Just tell me anything!"

Xiao Ke glanced down at his empty hands, then looked at Lin Jinyao with a cold gaze.

Second Senior Sister is also quite cheeky.

Shen Youqing hugged Lin Jinyao, "Okay!"

After releasing Lin Jinyao, Shen Youqing took out a stack of talismans from his storage ring and handed them to her.

Seeing Shen Youqing give it to her so readily, Lin Jinyao's hand trembled slightly.

Junior sister is being far too honest!
It's not just empty promises!

"Second Senior Sister, you can make do with this for now," Shen Youqing said with a smile.

"Junior Sister, I'll cover all your talisman paper and ink from now on!" Lin Jinyao looked at Shen Youqing with gratitude.

Seeing Lin Jinyao rushing out to steal the job, Xiao Ke's cold voice rang out, "Second Senior Sister, do you have spirit stones?"

Lin Jinyao: ...

Fifth junior brother is so vicious!
The three people who came over all looked at Lin Jinyao upon hearing this.

Among his fellow disciples, Lin Jinyao was indeed the poorest. If it weren't for Lin Youran supporting her, she would probably be dressed in rags by now.

Lin Jinyao glared at her with a sharp look.

What are you looking at?

"Fourth Senior Brother is amazing." Shen Youqing stuffed a stack of talismans into Yang Yousheng's hand. "I was distracted while watching! He fought incredibly well!"

Yang Yousheng stared blankly at the stack of talismans in his hand.

…Is this… is Junior Sister trying to comfort herself?
Isn't this a bit too much of a consolation?

"Junior Sister is amazing too." Yang Yousheng gave a shy smile. "I haven't even had a chance to congratulate Junior Sister on winning first place in talisman drawing!"

"Thank you, Fourth Senior Brother," Shen Youqing said with a smile.

Xiao Ke silently reached out and grabbed Shen Youqing's arm, pulling her away from Lin Jinyao. Shen Youqing took two steps back and turned to look at the man beside her. Just as she was about to speak, Chu Jianyan and the others arrived.

Seeing that Yang Yousheng had returned, Chu Jianyan knew that the physical cultivator competition was over. "Next should be the weapon master, alchemist, oh right, and the beast tamer. Next should probably be the beast tamer."

Very few of the five sects' direct disciples are skilled in beast taming: Liang Shimu of the Hehuan Sect, Qingya of the Lingxiao Sect, and Wen Shiyue of the Five Elements Sect.

"Beastmasters Liang Shimu, Qingya, and Wen Shiyue, come over and draw lots!"

The elder's voice rang out.

Upon first seeing Yan, Chu Jianyan raised an eyebrow. Was she really a beast tamer?

Liang Shimu strode over to draw lots.

"Let's go take a look." Shen Youqing walked towards the arena on the left, and Xiao Ke, who was holding her arm, followed suit.

The group headed in that direction.

Liang Shimu drew a bye, and Wen Shiyue and Qingya competed in the first round.

After exchanging greetings with Qingya and Wen Shiyue on the arena, they released their spirit beasts to begin the battle.

Shen Youqing watched with great interest.

"At this rate, I'm afraid the alchemists will have to wait until tomorrow. They should be able to finish the competition in two days, right?" Chu Jianyan said thoughtfully.

"Perhaps," Ye Zhenzhou said thoughtfully.

Among the five sects, sword cultivators and alchemists are the most numerous, and alchemists and sword cultivators will definitely be the ones to compete later.

"There are only three direct disciples of the Five Elements Sect and the young master of the Yin family among the weapon makers," Yin Zhongyu said unhurriedly. "The weapon makers will definitely be scheduled for this afternoon. If we are fast enough, we might even be able to schedule the alchemists."

“The Azure Dragon Sword Sect is all sword cultivators, and the Azure Jade Sect has two sword cultivators, but it seems that Jiang Chenying is participating in the competition as a pill master this time.” Chu Jianyan said while watching the competition, “Our sect has one second junior brother, and the Joyful Union Sect and the Five Elements Sect each have one, for a total of nine sword cultivators.”

“Young Master Shen, Young Master Xie, and Young Master Yue are participating in the competition as sword cultivators,” Yin Zhongyu added.

“Those are twelve.” Chu Jianyan said, glancing at her second junior brother.

The other eleven sword cultivators are no pushovers. Can he make it into the top three?

Yin Zhongyu and Ye Zhenzhou looked at their senior brother with some concern.

Jiang Xuan'an didn't react much.

We'll only know what ranking we can achieve after the competition.

"I hope I don't run into my cousin!" Shen Quelin prayed.

Shen Youqing turned her gaze to Shen Quelin, and seeing his earnest prayer, she reached out and poked his arm.

Shen Quelin glanced at her sideways, asking her with his eyes what she was doing.

"It's okay, losing to my brother isn't shameful." Shen Youqing gave a bright smile.

Shen Quelin glared at him with a sharp glare.

Yue Xunzhu raised her hand and gently touched Shen Youqing's head, saying softly, "Jinjin, I am just a healer, and I am not good at swordsmanship."

Shen Youqing declined to comment.

Lin Youran looked at the noble and elegant Young Master Yue with some curiosity.

This young master of the moon does indeed seem to be bad at fighting.

Admittedly, in a few days, Lin Youran will know what it means to be bad at something.

"How many more years until the Five Sects Conference?" Shen Quelin suddenly blurted out.

"Less than three years."

Shen Xingzhi's voice drifted over, and Shen Quelin turned around to see her and the disciples of the Azure Dragon Sword Sect approaching.

"Very impressive!" Shen Xingzhi gave Shen Youqing a thumbs up.

After praising her, she said to Shen Quelin, "The Five Sects Conference will be held a few months after the opening of our sect's Sword Tomb."

"It seems the Five Sects Conference restricts cultivation levels?" Shen Quelin asked uncertainly.

"Above Foundation Establishment, below Nascent Soul, and between fifteen and one hundred years old," Shen Xingzhi replied.

Shen Quelin nodded slightly to Shen Xingzhi.
