The sword seller, dressed in red, deserves applause for the prankster.

The appearance of the elders from Jinfo Temple was a reminder to everyone to stop while they were at it, as this was a very serious occasion and it was not appropriate to cause too much trouble.

This can be considered the end of this farce.

But actually everyone is fine; they're just watching for fun. Only one person is truly hurt.

That person wasn't very likable either.

Abbot Puning of Jinfo Temple said, "Please, young benefactors, check the list again according to your respective sects."

The young novice monk beside him took out a form.

It can be understood as a report form.

Disciples from each sect stepped forward one by one and reported the names of all their disciples.

When we finally reached Nine Swords Mountain.

They were still a little nervous, after all, everyone was only guessing that the person was Chi Miao, and it was hard to say whether it was actually him in the end.

Ying Wuhuo went up and filled it out; he was an acquaintance, so there was no need to worry about it.

Jin Shengfei went up to fill in the form. He had never seen this person before, but from his self-introduction, he seemed to be from the Jin family of Jiangling.

That was a wealthy merchant family whose reputation was well-known even in the cultivation world, and they had extremely good fortune.

"This batch of disciples from Nine Swords Mountain is quite of high quality."

Heavenly Sword Sect disciple: "High quality what? Not even a half-step Golden Core cultivator, they have absolutely no strength!"

Wenren Yi: "Nine Swords Mountain is incredibly powerful, far more so than my Heavenly Sword Sect!"

Heavenly Sword Sect disciple: "...Perhaps you'd better not say anything."

The moment you opened your mouth...

Anyone who didn't know better would think that our young master of the Heavenly Sword Sect is a loyal fan of Nine Swords Mountain.

Who doesn't know that the two companies are mortal enemies?

Are we going to destroy our rival literature?

Next up was Qiu Qi, the third contestant from Nine Swords Mountain.

Qiu Qi had a stroke of luck not long ago, and his strength was quite good. In addition, he had excellent character, so he got this opportunity.

Contestant number four is named Youying, one of the direct disciples of Nine Swords Mountain.

And the last one...

As the girl stepped forward, everyone tensed up for a moment, their hearts leaping into their throats.

Today, she was unusually not wearing a red dress, but a custom-made yin-yang robe. The robe was decorated with gold thread patterns, which made her already ethereal and beautiful appearance even more graceful. Her golden eyes were bright and piercing, and she had an indescribable divine quality about her.

"She's so beautiful, she must be Chi Miao, right?"

"I don't think so. After all, it's rumored that Chi Miao attracted nine lightning tribulations when he broke through from the Qi Refining stage to the Foundation Establishment stage, making the entire Miao Hua Continent a god-like figure. How could someone so awesome be..."

"Don't you think she's amazing too?"

Which god?

"A crazy god."

"..."

"But isn't it more suspicious that Chi Miao didn't come to the Ten Sects training camp?"

None of them had ever seen Chi Miao in person, and no one had called her name earlier, which made them very suspicious of her identity. It was as if a huge rock was pressing on their chests, leaving them unable to move forward or backward.

until……

Chi Miao wrote his name on the table with a calligraphy brush.

—Chi Miao.

The handwriting is quite ugly.

For a moment, everyone fell silent.

"My heart, which had been hanging in suspense, suddenly died."

"Or the kind where they die without a proper burial."

"The heavy weight on my chest has finally been lifted."

"Or rather, it shattered into smoke."

I never imagined that someone who was rumored to be so powerful would actually look like this.

It's not that it's bad, but... how should I put it? Well... it's kind of... well.

At this moment, people's manners need to be lowered, and they are ashamed to use "despicable" to describe someone they don't know well.

A little while later...

"Didn't she sign it? Why hasn't the little novice left yet? Wasn't she the last one?"

The little novice monk wanted to leave too!

But Chi Miao kept checking his watch!

He tugged at the watch, secretly straining, clenching his teeth, and whispered through gritted teeth, "Benefactor Chi Miao, I need to hand in my form!!"

Chi Miao: "Wait a little longer, let me take another look."

She quickly wrote down the names of everyone on the signature list, and then wrote down everyone's names one by one in the order they had just signed.

Before she arrived, she had thoroughly studied the Prodigy Handbook and knew which members of the Ten Training Camp were particularly untouchable.

The first one is Jingming of Jinfo Temple. He is a born Buddhist disciple and has already reached the Golden Core stage. Although he has not made many moves, every time he does, he instantly kills his enemies. He once defeated a Golden Core cultivator when he was half-step into the Golden Core stage.

The second one is Yu Wuxin of the Qin Sect, a half-step Golden Core cultivator. He's not hard to beat, but disgusting. His abilities are extremely disgusting... but compared to Chi Miao, it's hard to say.

Thirdly, Rong Xuanji of the Hehuan Sect, a half-step Golden Core cultivator, is recorded in very few documents, but with her Heavenly Fox Body, her strength is probably far greater than Yu Wuxin's.

Everything else is alright.

Chi Miao remembered these people not only to avoid provoking new enemies, but also because of the mission given to him by the Gou Shi system.

We need to find five exceptional talents with a root value of 95 or higher and provide them with specialized training!

She came with a mission!

Gou Shi System: "You really are something, I'm going to cry!"

Chi Miao: "Don't cry. If you cry, it will make me feel like you're peeing in my head."

Gou Shi System: "..."

Chi Miao quickly made arrangements with everyone.

Then, with a smile, he patted the little novice's bald head: "Go on, child. I've seen enough. Don't stay too long and make the elders angry."

Little novice monk: "..."

Others: "..."

You're a really nice person.

After Chi Miao finished watching the team reunion, he noticed that everyone was staring at him.

Chi Miao: "I feel really embarrassed."

Jin Shengfei: "I feel like we're quite popular."

Ying Wuhuo: "?"

Qiu Qi: "I think you've misunderstood..."

Youying: "Yeah, it feels like being the center of attention."

"???"

Ying Wuhuo and Qiu Qi exchanged glances.

It seems like only the two of them are normal.

Chi Miao gave You Ying a thumbs up, and You Ying returned the favor.

A moment later, the young novice monk beside Master Puning spoke:

"The list has been verified. It seems everyone has arrived. However, since everyone has had a long journey today, we will not conduct any special training. You can take a look around here and get some rest. Don't be late for tomorrow's morning training."

"Of course, I suggest that everyone get to know each other in advance. It's a rare opportunity, and you'll all be training together for the next year, so it's always good to get to know each other."

Master Puning chuckled and said, "Yes, it's always good to get to know each other. We didn't have that opportunity back then."

Then the young novice monk explained some important points, such as where everyone should stay and where they should eat.

That's all I wanted to say.

After disbanding.

Chi Miao and the others didn't have any particular plans; they originally intended to go eat first.

Just then, a compassionate voice came from behind.

"Please wait a moment, distinguished guests."

The group turned around and saw...

Chi Miao: "Why is there another monk?"

Jin Shengfei quickly nudged her and reminded her, "He is the monk Jingming."

Upon closer inspection, Chi Miao realized it matched—it was the person she remembered.

But why did Jingming seek them out?

Jingming seemed to understand social etiquette well and took the initiative to break the awkwardness: "Benefactor Chi Miao has the authorization of my Golden Buddha Temple and is a distinguished guest of my Golden Buddha Temple. Naturally, I will take care of him. I hope the distinguished guests of Nine Swords Mountain will not find it troublesome."

Jin Shengfei's whispered message: "Let me call you by name to see what kind of person you are."

Chi Miao suddenly realized that this explanation made sense to her.

Then, she suddenly saw a faint Buddhist light slowly rising behind Jingming.

Her eyes lit up.

This...this could be?!
