It turns out, they were the main characters.

Lan Mulian couldn't help but chuckle, but quickly composed herself, maintaining her aloof demeanor: "I have my own judgment on how to judge this. If anyone later feels it's unfair, they can report it to the sect leader after they enter the sect."

“However,” Lan Mulian changed the subject and said with a light smile, “the decision is still up to me.”

The underlying meaning of this statement is probably: Are you teaching me how to do things?

Ye Yu's face was ugly, but he couldn't find a reason to refute it. Moreover, he didn't dare to lose his temper in front of Lan Mulian, so he could only endure it.

However, it doesn't matter.

Let Mu Zhian show off a little longer; the real show is about to begin.

"Senior sister is so domineering..." Mu Zhian applauded inwardly like a seal, and cupped his hands, saying, "Senior sister, now that the test is over, I'll step down first?"

Lan Mulian hummed in agreement, and after Mu Zhian stepped down from the stage, her gaze fell directly on Wei Mengrou, who was in the shadows in the corner.

"Miss Wei, it's your turn."

People's eyes followed Lan Mulian's direction and looked over. Only then did they remember that among the disciples participating in the sect's assessment, there was also Mu Zhian's personal maid.

Amidst those gazes, Wei Mengrou gracefully landed in front of the high platform.

She was tall and slender, with long, flowing hair that slightly obscured her eyes, making it difficult to see her face clearly.

Even so, it's easy to tell from her silhouette and her overall demeanor that she is a rare beauty, even though her current attire is quite casual.

Wei Mengrou stretched out her palm and touched the black stone tablet.

"God Refining Realm, fifth level."

As Lan Mulian's voice fell, the audience fell into a deathly silence.

Even Lan Mulian was somewhat surprised and gave Wei Mengrou a second look.

She knew that Wei Mengrou was at the Refining Spirit Realm, but because she had never fought with her, she was unaware that the other party was actually at the Fifth Grade of the Refining Spirit Realm.

Judging by her age, she's probably only two or three years older than Mu Zhian... A fifth-grade Refining Spirit Realm cultivator would be treated as an honored guest in some families. It's quite strange that Wei Mengrou, with such talent, would willingly become someone else's maid.

Wei Mengrou infused a wisp of spiritual energy into the stone tablet. At that moment, the pitch-black stone tablet suddenly surged with an astonishing black light, which shot into the sky and instantly enveloped the entire platform.

"Misfortune strikes from all sides?!"

The onlookers below the stage instinctively took several steps back, their faces all showing displeasure.

"What a pity. Reaching the Spirit Refinement Realm at this age meant a limitless future, but who would have thought that their luck would be so bad?" someone in the crowd suddenly said with regret.

"With such bad luck, just being around her would bring bad luck, right? What were the people in the Mu family thinking, actually letting her protect the eldest young master of the Mu family..."

Being around lucky people will more or less improve your own luck.

Similarly, if you're around someone who exudes bad luck, you're likely to be affected as well.

"Perhaps the Mu family has some way to suppress Wei Mengrou's bad luck, otherwise how could they be so sure that they would let her follow Mu Zhi'an?"

"Even so, the risk is still very high... although this woman is top-notch in both looks and ability..."

Wei Mengrou listened to the whispers below the stage with a blank expression, her face unmoved, only glancing at Mu Zhian unintentionally.

Noticing Wei Mengrou's cold gaze, Mu Zhian grinned and waved to her.

Wei Mengrou curled her lip in disdain, silently walked down from the platform, and was about to disappear into the shadows.

However, at this moment, Mu Zhian took the initiative to grab Wei Mengrou's wrist, causing her body to stiffen slightly.

She turned her head to look at Mu Zhian and asked in a calm tone, "What are you doing?"

"You've been standing for so long, sit down and rest for a while," Mu Zhian said with a smile.

Wei Mengrou said calmly, "No need. My presence by your side might even affect your luck."

"You've been with me for so long before and there were no problems, so how could there be any problems now?" Mu Zhian shook his head and said.

Seeing that Wei Mengrou remained silent, Mu Zhian took out a handkerchief, wiped the chair next to him, and said, "Come on, Mengrou, don't be shy."

Wei Mengrou hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded gently and sat down next to Mu Zhian.

At the same time, the whispers that had been going on in the audience also disappeared without a trace.

Mu Zhian's actions were actually a way of showing that he was on Wei Mengrou's side.

Continuing to discuss Wei Mengrou's matter will only offend the eldest son of the Mu family.

Because of these casual words and actions, Wei Mengrou's matter only caused a ripple before quietly subsiding. No one continued to discuss the matter, but instead watched the disciples who came up for the assessment one after another, secretly comparing themselves with other geniuses in their hearts.

"The eldest daughter of the Bai family has arrived!"

Suddenly, someone noticed a streak of light, like a star, shining in the distant sky.

The streak of light came swiftly, and Bai Ruoxi landed on her flying sword in front of the dueling platform.

Her jade-like feet were treading on a pair of snow-white embroidered shoes, and the spiritual energy beneath her feet seemed to spread out quietly like ripples.

She wore a white off-shoulder dress, her straight, unadorned long hair cascading down like a waterfall, curving slightly in front of her calves, and her cherry lips pursed.

That outfit, pure yet with a touch of allure, coupled with her cool and elegant demeanor, is most likely to inspire admiration in men.

"Hello, Senior Sister." Bai Ruoxi greeted her with a gentle smile.

Lan Mulian looked up at Bai Ruoxi and smiled gently, "You've come at the right time; you're the only one left."

After testing Bai Ruoxi, the ranking of the disciples for this assessment can be determined.

Bai Ruoxi's appearance completely ignited the atmosphere in the audience.

Whether in modern times or ancient times, beautiful women have always been a popular topic of conversation.

Especially a great beauty like Bai Ruoxi, who possesses both strength and beauty.

In the past, one of the things that many people in Tianxuan City talked about during their leisure time was how to rank the beauties of Tianxuan City.

Bai Ruoxi has always remained firmly in first place.

The only one who could barely compare to her in terms of looks was Huang Manting from the Morning Light Chamber of Commerce; however, Huang Manting's figure was far inferior to Bai Ruoxi's.

"Sister Ruoxi must be the number one among her peers, right?" Ye Qian looked at the white-dressed beauty on the stage who was the center of attention and suddenly whispered.

Ye Lingxuan pursed her lips and said softly, "Probably."

If Bai Ruoxi's next luck test shows a red or even golden light, it will likely confirm her status as the number one among her peers.

"She's beautiful and strong, no wonder your Brother Mu likes her so much." Huang Manting smiled at the Ye sisters, trying to stir things up.

Ye Qian seemed unhappy and whispered, "Sister Lingxuan is just young. If she were the same age as Sister Ruoxi, her strength wouldn't be lower than hers."

Mu Zhian smiled faintly and said, "If Sister Qian'er works hard in her cultivation, I believe you will catch up with her in the future."

Ye Qian gently shook her head and said, "There's no way I could compare to Sister Bai."

Although she said that, her brows visibly relaxed a bit.

Looking at Ye Qian's delicate face, which couldn't hide her small joy, Huang Manting secretly clicked her tongue.

This Mu Zhian really knows how to manipulate girls' minds. He even pretended to be an innocent and handsome young man to tease her before...

Recalling the scene when Mu Zhian first visited the Morning Light Chamber of Commerce, Huang Manting was furious.

Suddenly, Lan Mulian's clear, icy voice rang out from the stage:

"First-grade God Refining."

As soon as she finished speaking, a golden light descended from the sky!

The dazzling light was even more brilliant than that of Ye Lingxuan and Ye Yu, and it seemed to be wrapped with a faint wisp of colorful radiance.

Lan Mulian gazed at the delicate beauty whose hand touched the stone tablet and whose eyes were slightly closed, and at the stone tablet that was radiating golden light, and remained silent in her heart.

It seems that Bai Ruoxi is indeed the number one among her peers.

The cultivators below the stage all showed expressions of as if they had expected this.

After all, Bai Ruoxi's defeat of Gongsun Cheng was a very memorable moment, and she advanced to the Refining God Realm not long after. It's not surprising that she would be the number one among her peers.

With her strength and status as the most beautiful woman in Tianxuan City, Bai Ruoxi's appearance was filled with undisguised admiration from many people present.

It's a pity that Miss Bai seems to have a close relationship with the eldest son of the Mu family... Many people felt a little regretful when they thought of this.

Bai Ruoxi slowly opened her eyes, turned her head to look in Mu Zhian's direction, and after the two looked at each other, a faint smile bloomed on the girl's face.

This subtle movement was also noticed by Ye Yu in the audience. Recalling how he had always been met with indifference no matter how much he tried to please her, and seeing Bai Ruoxi's sweet smile when facing Mu Zhi'an, Ye Yu's sense of imbalance finally caused his jealousy to burn uncontrollably, and he slowly stood up.

Bai Ruoxi politely bowed in Lan Mulian's direction before preparing to step down from the stage.

"Wait first!"

At this moment, a sudden voice rang out from below the stage, causing everyone to turn their heads to look.

Ye Yu.

Mu Zhian was also somewhat surprised and looked at the handsome young man in black robes behind him.

"Is there anything else?" Lan Mulian asked Ye Yu below the stage.

"Has Senior Sister already determined the ranking of the disciples for this assessment?" Ye Yu asked.

Lan Mulian nodded silently.

The positions of the disciples in the subsequent assessments may still need to be considered, but the first place winner this time is no longer a concern.

"What if I told you that there are demon cultivators among the disciples being assessed this time?" Ye Yu suddenly asked.

On the stands not far away, many high-ranking cultivators from various families all wore meaningful smiles.

Mu Zhian narrowed his eyes slightly, shaking his head and chuckling to himself.

Looks like some people finally couldn't resist...

Chapter 83 She's a Demon Cultivator!

"Demon cultivators? Ye Yu just meant that there are demon cultivators among us?!"

Someone in the crowd immediately realized what was happening and their eyes fell on Ye Yu.

"Young Master Ye, is this really true?"

"Naturally true."

Ye Yu nodded, looked around at everyone, and then his gaze lingered on Mu Zhian's face for a moment.
