"Master, don't worry, we've been very diligent, we haven't been slacking off... really, we haven't..." The others started to jeer...

“Whether someone is slacking off or not isn’t up to you to decide… I need to verify that it’s not true,” said Master Ziyin.

“Alright, alright, Master’s word is final. Master, please verify it.” Ling Yue said confidently.

After hearing Ling Yue's words, Master Ziyin laughed twice.

“Alright, Ling Yue, you seem quite confident, so let’s start with you then,” said Master Ziyin.

"Yes, Master." Ling Yue replied, and then walked out of the group.

Ling Yue held a sword in his hand and looked intently at Master Ziyin.

"You'd better get ready," said Master Ziyin.

Then, Master Ziyin pinched a ball of spiritual energy in his palm and struck Ling Yue without mercy.

Ling Yue quickly used his sword to block. Because his sword also possessed spiritual energy, he was able to barely manage to block it...

"Hmph, let's see how long you can hold out." Master Ziyin snorted coldly, then gathered an even larger ball of spiritual energy and continued to attack Ling Yue.

This time, Ling Yue didn't use his sword to block, because he knew his sword was no longer enough.

Ling Yue put the sword aside, then gathered spiritual energy in his hands and attacked Master Ziyin as well.

"Ling Yue, you've made great progress! You truly deserve to be called the senior brother. Everyone should learn from Ling Yue," said Master Ziyin happily.

"Master, you flatter me," Ling Yue replied modestly.

After one cycle, Master Ziyin stopped.

"Alright, Ling Yue, you've passed the test. You can leave now," said Master Ziyin.

So Ling Yue went back to the group.

"Demon, come here." Master Ziyin called out again.

Everyone else breathed a sigh of relief because their names weren't called...

Lin Yaoxie stepped forward. He clasped his hands in a fist and bowed to Master Ziyin.

"Master..." Lin Yaoxie called out.

"Well, you and Ling Yue have been working the hardest here. Let me see if you've improved."

"Zi Yin Zhenren said.

"Then please enlighten me, Master..." Lin Yaoxie said.

After that, Master Ziyin began to deal with Lin Yaoxie.

Lin Yaoxie knew that Master Ziyin was no ordinary person, so he began to deal with him seriously...

In the first round, the two were evenly matched, which made everyone look at Lin Yaoxie with new respect.

Master Ziyin was also quite surprised by Lin Yaoxie's strength...

"When did you become so powerful?" Master Ziyin asked.

"I've been working hard all along," Lin said with a wicked smile.

His efforts finally paid off; he suddenly felt that all those evenings he spent practicing martial arts had been worthwhile.

However, it wasn't so easy for Master Ziyin to deal with Lin Yaoxie...

After a while, Master Ziyin stopped.

"Demon, you're really good. You've improved a lot compared to Ling Yue. You two should keep up the good work," Master Ziyin said earnestly.

These two disciples made him very happy.

Next, Master Ziyin called on the other disciples, but the remaining disciples were far inferior to Lin Yaoxie and Ling Yue.

Seeing how much Lin Yaoxie's strength had improved, and with Master Ziyin praising him in front of so many people, Feng Qingxue was very happy for him.

But all of this made Ling Duan very uncomfortable. He glanced at Lin Yaoxie with displeasure, thinking, "What's so great about that? I'll surpass you someday."

Feng Qingxue walked to Lin Yaoxie's side.

“Brother Demon…you’re so amazing…” Feng Qingxue said.

"Hey... I'm not as good as my master said. I've only improved a little bit," Lin Yaoxie said shyly.

"Brother Yaoxie... you don't need to be modest about this. Everyone has seen your hard work. Now it's all worth it, your efforts haven't been in vain," Feng Qingxue said happily.

Lin Yaoxie was also very happy.

Chapter Sixty-Three: Finding Medicine

Master Ziyin tested all his disciples. Some had indeed improved, but some had actually regressed...

Then, everyone lined up in a row again.

“I just tested everyone’s strength and found that you have all become quite lazy lately,” said Master Ziyin.

The atmosphere immediately became serious, and everyone listened attentively to what Master Ziyin had to say.

“We people of Tianyong City can’t be this lazy. Besides, your current strength is really not that great. Everyone should learn more from Lin Yaoxie and Ling Yue, you know? Let me tell you this, there are so many people who want to enter Tianyong City right now, this crowd has already reached the foot of the mountain. If you continue to be lazy, I’ll have to replace you.” Zi Yinzhen said.

"No way... Master really came here as a joke this time..."

"I don't know... Changing the player, that's a bit scary..."

"Yeah, Master was probably just trying to scare us. He probably wouldn't actually do it."

People began to suspect Ziyin Zhenren's words.

Master Ziyin also heard what they said...

"Hahaha... Hahaha... I'm not joking with you, I'm serious. Think about it, would I raise some lousy people? No way, you all know your master well," said Master Ziyin.

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

“Master, we were indeed lazy this time, and we will definitely lift our spirits.” Someone stepped forward and said.

“Yes, Master…we will refocus our efforts on martial arts.” At this moment, Ling Duan also stepped forward and said.

"Alright, I hope you don't forget what you just said. Even if you do forget, I've remembered it for you."

Master Ziyin replied.

After a short while, Master Ziyin dismissed everyone.

Feng Qingxue found their place quite interesting, but only the disciples here probably knew the hardships involved.

After all, Tianyong City's reputation didn't come easily...

Although martial arts training is arduous, and Master Ziyin has high expectations of them, many people still want to join...

"Qingxue, what are you thinking about?" Just then, Lin Yaoxie ran out from behind Feng Qingxue.

Feng Qingxue was startled.

"Brother Demon...you're trying to scare me to death!" Feng Qingxue said, still shaken.

"Hahaha... Tell me, who are you thinking about, and why are you so engrossed in thinking about them?" Lin Yaoxie asked.

"No, I was just thinking that your Tianyong City seems to have it pretty tough, with Master Ziyin being so strict with you," Feng Qingxue said.

"There's nothing I can do about it, that's just how my master is. Otherwise, how could Tianyong City be so powerful?" Lin Yao chuckled wickedly.

Feng Qingxue felt a little tired.

So she said to Lin Yaoxie, "Yaoxie, I'm a little tired, so I'll go back to sleep first. Oh, and don't forget to help Lang Qixing find medicine tonight. Just come find me then."

“Okay, you go and rest first,” Lin Yaoxie replied.

Feng Qingxue left and went into her own room.

After opening the door, she lay down on the bed and fell asleep almost immediately...

It wasn't until evening that Lin Yaoxie knocked on the door from outside.

Feng Qingxue then woke up.

She slept until now... If Lin Yaoxie hadn't come to wake her, she might have kept sleeping until tomorrow...

Feng Qingxue opened the door.

"Brother Demon... I'm sorry, I was probably too sleepy, and then I slept until now," Feng Qingxue said.

"Hey, it's nothing, I'm up now, aren't I?" Lin Yaoxie smiled indifferently.

At this moment, Lin Yaoxie had changed into a set of night clothes.

Feng Qingxue thought he looked quite handsome like that, so she chuckled.

"What are you laughing at? What I just said wasn't funny at all," Lin Yaoxie said, puzzled.

"It's nothing. By the way, wait here for me for a moment. I need to change into some night clothes before I can come out," Feng Qingxue said.

"Alright, I'll wait for you here," Lin Yaoxie said.

Then, Feng Qingxue turned and went into the house.

She found a set of night clothes and changed into them.

"Let's go," Feng Qingxue said.

So the two of them headed up the mountain.

It was incredibly dark on this mountain. Luckily, Lin Yaoxie had brought torches with him when he came, which provided a little light in the pitch-black night.

0oo is asking for flowers.....

"Brother Demon... don't walk so fast, I'm a little scared," Feng Qingxue whispered from behind.

"Okay, don't be afraid, I'm here," Lin Yaoxie said, then stopped and waited for Feng Qingxue to come up.

Feng Qingxue walked in front of Lin Yaoxie.

The two of them walked forward.

Lin Yaoxie was afraid of snakes in the middle of the night, so he picked up a stick in advance and started hitting them randomly.

If there were any snakes or other creatures, they would be driven away by Lin Yaoxie's stick.

After searching for a long time, Lin Yaoxie finally found the herb he was looking for.
