After transmigrating into the body of a junior sister of a celestial sect, the cultivation world wen

This was the final individual trial of the Heavenly Ranking, and the trial arena was packed with people.

Seeing Ning Yue here, the others were not surprised, only filled with anticipation and admiration.

Ning Yue's expression wasn't as excited as the others. He lifted his eyelids and glanced at the sky not far away.

She had already contacted her senior classmates last night.

In the past few days, the mirror stones have been completely scattered throughout the Upper Realm to ensure that everyone can see them.

Shi Yinghan and Lu Qingyan are already hiding in the training grounds, waiting for her to win the top spot in the beast taming competition.

A murmur of discussion arose from below.

"After all this time, what kind of spirit beast is the Purgatory Sect going to bring out?"

"It can't be some particularly rare spirit beast, otherwise it wouldn't have taken so long to capture."

"Possibly!"

Ning Yue wasn't interested in what kind of spirit beast the Purgatory Sect would come up with.

She'll win him over sooner or later anyway.

A huge cage covered with a black cloth was brought up, and the disciples carrying it looked like they were struggling.

The others became even more curious upon seeing this.

The elder in charge of the Beast Taming Trial Grounds glanced around and said loudly.

"The final round of the Heavenly Ranking Individual Trials—Beast Taming! Begin now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly ripped off the black cloth covering the cage.

"Whoosh—!"

Everyone's eyes widened instantly, staring incredulously at the center of the cage.

The air was silent for five seconds before someone finally managed to squeeze out a sound.

"This...this is a spirit beast?!!"

Then came an incredulous voice: "Shouldn't it be...?"

Inside the cage was a beautiful blue-tailed merman!

The mermaid's features were exquisitely beautiful, possessing a captivating charm. Her body shimmered with iridescent light, and her white tailbone was faintly visible.

Its eyes were drooping listlessly, as if it was exhausted from dealing with the situation, and it sat on the ground with its tail curled up.

Ning Yue paused, his breath caught in his throat, and his gaze was fixed on the merman, a cold glint gradually appearing in his eyes.

He had many wounds on his body, which showed signs of basic treatment, but some more serious wounds remained exposed.

Although she looked somewhat pitiful and miserable, she was still breathtakingly beautiful.

Suddenly, he blinked lightly, paused for a moment, and then his lifeless eyes lit up.

As if sensing something familiar, she looked around helplessly.

"That's clearly a merman—!?"

"They're actually using merfolk as spirit beasts?! What is the Purgatory Sect doing?!"

"What's going on?! Instead of spirit beasts, they brought mermaids to the beast-taming competition?!"

"But these merfolk are even more precious than spirit beasts; they're so rare! If only we could... tame them..."

Some people looked at the beautiful mermaid on the ground with burning greed in their eyes.

The merman is currently in the form of the Water Condensation Mirror. Although the form is large, the face is pale and the person looks very weak and has no ability to fight.

Two beautiful, gleaming eyes kept moving, as if searching for something; fingers dug into the ground as it peered around.

A wronged syllable escaped her throat, her expression somewhat bewildered. In the blink of an eye, a string of tiny pearls fell.

"Tears really can turn into pearls!"

"I've heard that merfolk are very powerful. The Purgatory Sect was injured like this, and we still want to go up and tame them?"

"I feel... given the merman's condition... he won't be able to hold on." Someone couldn't bear to see him suffer.

"Who cares! This is a great deal! If you guys don't go for it, I will!"

"First come, first served!"

A figure flew swiftly toward the merman, the long sword in his hand gleaming coldly, and a greedy light flashing in his eyes.

At the same time, several more figures followed closely behind, afraid that they would miss out or that someone else would get there first.

They all revealed their killer moves!

The merman raised her eyes, her eyes seemingly filled with water, revealing a hint of confusion as she stared blankly at the person attacking her.

These people are very fast, and the merfolk are absolutely unable to resist them in their current state.

A pleased smile spread across his lips as he gazed at the merman's vulnerable neck, so close to his own, and his longsword was about to pierce through—

We succeeded!!!

A sudden gust of cold wind swept in from all directions, violently slapping away the person closest to the merman!

The man's back slammed heavily into the ground, and he spat out a mouthful of blood!

Struggling to sit up, he angrily shouted, "Who—!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than all the cultivators who had gone to attack the merfolk were thrown out.

They were thrown to the ground one after another, like a human pyramid.

A soft footstep sounded, and everyone, enduring the pain, looked up—

Ning Yue, dressed in white, held a long sword pointing to the sky, his imposing spiritual power bursting out in all directions, exuding an aura that no one could stop!

She always thought the little mermaid was staying safely in the Fusang Sect, but she never expected that she would be captured by the Purgatory Sect!

The Purgatory Sect is really daring!

Everyone fell silent, not daring to say anything more for a moment.

After all, their reputation was legendary!

Ning Yue walked step by step toward the merman, looking at every wound on the merman's body.

With each step I took, the chill in my body intensified.

The merman's frantic searching gaze quickly froze, settling on Ning Yue, staring blankly at her figure.

I smelled the familiar scents again after a long time, and saw the people who had disappeared for so long.

The mermaid blinked her raven eyelashes, and with each blink, a string of tiny pearls fell.

Pain throbbed from his wounds as he dragged his beautiful, scarred fishtail toward Ning Yue.

Ning Yue immediately went to the merman's side, his eyes filled with a chill that was almost tangible, sending shivers down one's spine.

The little mermaid she brought back from the secret realm was being bullied like this!

The merfolk with the water-condensing mirror were just as sticky to Ning Yue as those without it.

She immediately endured the pain, supporting her battered fishtail, and reached out to hug Ning Yue's waist, holding him tightly as if in fear.

His fishtail wasn't enough to support him standing for that long, so Ning Yue raised his hand and picked the merman up in his arms.

The merman's thick, seaweed-like hair cascaded over Ning Yue's shoulders, and her shimmering fishtail gleamed with blue light.

Both the human and the fish are top-notch in appearance and form, standing together in perfect harmony.

"This merman is mine. Who else wants to challenge me?" Ning Yue's voice was terrifyingly cold as he looked around.

This one sentence immediately deterred the vast majority of people!

The other party is Ningning! How could they possibly win against her! So they all dispersed.

But some people still don't believe in superstition!

"So what if she got first place?! Beast Taming is different from everything else! I'll take her on!"

Someone pulled him back: "Let's not go anymore. Didn't you see the merman's form? It's submission! Ningning has already won!"

The merfolk have already submitted to Ningning; any further challenge from them would only be asking for trouble!

The man hesitated for a moment. He was already a little unconvinced by the hasty defeat, and in a fit of passion, he wanted to go up and fight Ningning one-on-one!

But after being advised like that, and thinking about it carefully, it really is true. Isn't this just asking for trouble?!

So he awkwardly prepared to leave.

A sharp sword strike knocked him down before he could react, sending him flying backward again.

Ning Yue glanced at him sideways, then looked around at everyone: "...Anything else?"

Everyone: "..."
