Let’s go back to last night.
After Ji Ningshuang dozed off in the hotel's luxurious room for half an hour, she heard a knock on the door.
When the maid pushed open the door, she saw a secretary in formal attire standing at the door. She said respectfully, "Master Ji, the person you are looking for has been escorted to a nearby building. Please follow us."
Ji Ningshuang slowly opened her eyes, and in those eyes as clear and cold as autumn water, there was a rare ripple of some suppressed emotions.
A fifth-rank priest was easily dealt with without any apparent struggle.
No matter how you look at it, this was most likely done by a fourth-grade or even a third-grade person.
If it is really a third-grade one, then it is most likely Baiyin.
No matter what, it is necessary to meet the priest of the Holy See Church.
Under the guidance of her secretary, Ji Ningshuang walked into a black car.
The black sedan shuttled silently through the streets of Pingcheng. After nearly ten minutes, the car stopped in front of a building.
The gorgeous neon lights on the streets illuminated the city at night. Ji Ningshuang stepped out of the car wearing small and exquisite embroidered shoes. Her white palace skirt fluttered backwards in the summer night breeze, highlighting her already proud figure to the fullest.
Led by the secretary, they soon arrived at the basement of the building.
This is one of the iconic locations of the official forces established by the government, and most of the staff working in the building have already gone off work.
Therefore, except for a few high-ranking officials, no one knew that the first thing that Sect Leader Ji did after his arrival was not to have dinner with the high-ranking officials of Pingcheng, but to go to the place where some important prisoners were held.
"Master Ji, I have already brought those two people here."
A man was walking towards me. From his dress, it was not difficult to tell that he must have a high status here, but he had a respectful smile on his face.
Wei Yuanji is also a member of the official forces, and he is the person responsible for interrogating Newman and Tang Yuan.
Wei Yuanji clapped his hands lightly, and two people in shackles appeared in sight under the guidance of staff.
"It's a pity that we had people interrogate them before, but they knew nothing. It seems that these two members of the Holy See Church have been brainwashed and have forgotten some important things." He continued with a somewhat regretful tone.
Ji Ningshuang's eyes were clear and her temperament was as cold as a fairy. She stared at the two of them calmly.
Almost at the moment he saw the woman in front of him, Newman's pupils dilated uncontrollably, his heartbeat quickened, and he was filled with unspeakable fear.
Ji Ningshuang!
He had seen this woman in the video. She was one of the few second-grade saints in the Eastern Continent of the Heaven.
At this moment, a living saint appeared in front of him!
Tang Yuan, who was standing next to Newman, turned pale with fear, and a cold sweat broke out on his back.
He didn't expect that he had only killed someone and taken a scripture, but he would attract Ji Ningshuang.
Newman lowered his head, not daring to breathe, and asked in a trembling voice: "Senior... what can I do for you?"
Because he is a foreigner, his pronunciation is not very standard, but it sounds pure and beautiful.
"Master Ji, if you need anything, we will try our best to find his erased memory." Wei Yuanji said respectfully.
Ji Ningshuang just stared at them quietly, her eyes were exceptionally brilliant, as if she could see through all their thoughts.
After a while, she withdrew her gaze and said calmly, "No need. They were not brainwashed. Instead, someone cast a shielding spell on their memories. If the shielding spell is removed, they will directly become idiots who cannot think."
"Shielding technique?" Wei Yuanji's eyes showed a bit more curiosity.
"It's a Taoist technique. In heaven, there are many people who can use it."
Ji Ningshuang's eyes were calm, and her words were filled with the cool and mature voice of a mature lady: "Most shielding spells can be directly removed, but the ones on these two cannot."
"Why is this?" Wei Yuanji couldn't help but ask.
"The sect master is a second-grade saint. She can directly remove shielding spells below the second grade, but the shielding spells cast by higher-grade cultivators are more difficult to remove."
The person who spoke was Cai Yun, another maid beside Ji Ningshuang: "Especially some shielding spells cast by third-grade masters are more difficult to deal with. If the other party also understands the formation, even a saint level person will not be able to break it in a short period of time."
Wei Yuanji was obviously stunned for a moment, a little unbelievable: "A third-rank great power...?"
He wondered what was going on in Pingcheng. Although after Ji Ningshuang chose to descend to Pingcheng, Wei Yuanji had more or less anticipated that Pingcheng would become the focus of the entire world for some time to come.
But the appearance of a third-grade master in such a short period of time... still makes people feel a little unreal.
Ji Ningshuang retracted her gaze and said casually: "When did the Dongtian ruins in Pingcheng appear?"
Wei Yuanji thought for a moment and said, "About four days ago, many people entered the cave to gain opportunities."
"Can relevant information be found for people who are around 20 to 24 years old?" Ji Ningshuang suddenly asked a question that puzzled Wei Yuanji.
"Please wait a moment. I'll have someone check it out."
After a brief moment of daze, Wei Yuanji immediately called someone to check.
After waiting for nearly a few minutes, a text message appeared on his phone.
The above lists all the people who entered the cave that day.
Ji Ningshuang took the phone and glanced at it, as if looking for something.
However, a moment later, her originally clear and beautiful eyes dimmed almost visibly.
"Master Ji, are you interested in the fragments of the scriptures?" Wei Yuanji asked tentatively, "I remember that five people got the fragments of the scriptures that day, and one of them got a fragment of the scriptures that seemed to be of the Earth Rank."
"A fragment of a scripture from the Earth Rank?"
As expected, Ji Ningshuang seemed to be slightly more interested and whispered, "If I remember correctly, the probability of getting an Earth-level fragment scripture by just drawing the lottery with the turntable is less than 0.01%. Even if you crack more than 3 formations, the probability is less than %."
"It seems that this person has good luck."
"Who got it?" she asked again.
Wei Yuanji pretended to recall and said, "It was Bai Ruixuan, the daughter of the Bai family. It is said that Bai Ruixuan's maid entered the cave that night to participate in the trial. She solved several formations and obtained the fragment of the scripture."
"Bai Ruixuan and her maid Chen Zihan both know a lot about formations. I heard that girl has collected a lot of posters about you in her room. She is your little fan." Wei Yuanji said with a smile again.
Ji Ningshuang glanced at Wei Yuanji casually and realized that this man was intentionally speaking for Bai Ruixuan, and thought that he had received some benefits.
But if you know when to stop, it won't be offensive.
Moreover, if that girl really got a fragment of earth-level scripture from Baiyin's cave, it seems that she has some talent and can be considered a promising talent.
Ji Ningshuang turned her gaze back to the two people in front of her whose memories had been tampered with, and seemed to be thinking about something.
For a monk to practice, he not only needs talent, but luck is also a very important factor.
Some people die immediately after jumping off a cliff, while others accidentally step into the cave ruins left behind by immortals... This is the difference between good and bad luck.
Luck, which seems to be an illusory thing, is something that only people at Ji Ningshuang's level can understand that it really exists.
After a while, she asked casually, "Do you have any photos or information about Bai Ruixuan and her maid you mentioned?"
Wei Yuanji was delighted and immediately handed over his phone: "Yes, this is her photo and information, and there are some group photos of her class at the back. She was even named the best student during the military training."
Ji Ningshuang glanced at the information and the girl in the photo and nodded slightly.
She was just asking casually and didn't really care about it.
At most, it was just a coincidence that someone was so lucky as to obtain a fragment of Earth-level scripture from Baiyin's cave.
As for whether Bai Ruixuan and her maid are talented people with both luck and formation skills, we will know after the spiritual energy test.
"This is a group photo of them during their previous military training." Wei Yuanji then moved his phone back one page, obviously he had been prepared for it.
Ji Ningshuang glanced at it casually.
Then, the woman's originally casual look gradually froze, and she just stared blankly at the class photo of Bai Ruixuan after military training.
And there is the boy standing in the corner in the group photo.
The sunlight shining through the lush branches and leaves also added a touch of sunshine to his fair face.
But compared to the past, he seems much more immature now.
Ji Ningshuang's cold eyes were filled with strong emotional fluctuations.
After a long silence, she whispered, "Which school is in the background of this photo?"
Chapter 26 Ji Ningshuang: This Child and I Are Destined
"I didn't expect that Sect Master Ji would choose to open the cave in our middle school..."
"Could it be that he discovered that there is a time traveler in our school who is very talented, so he wanted to admire his talent?"
Chang Qingxuan was a little bit surprised, so much so that he repeatedly checked the contents on his phone several times, and at one point he suspected that it was a rumor spread maliciously by someone.
However, after confirming it, Chang Qingxuan couldn't help but clench his fists, and all his words converged into a single cry of "Fuck!"
It turned out to be true!
Ji Ningshuang decided to hold the examination at their school!
Soon, the news spread in the class.
Soon after, there was a prolonged discussion in the class, and it was easy to see the excitement in everyone's face.
"I originally thought she would choose the city center or Vaughan Middle School. After all, that is the most prosperous place in the city." A student in the class was surprised.
"There must be a time traveler in our school, and he must be very talented, otherwise it would be impossible for our school to be selected as the assessment location."
"Anyway, I guess I'll have a chance to meet Sect Master Ji in person this time... I wonder if there'll be a chance to take a photo with him."
Even if there was no chance to take a photo, just being able to see the sect leader up close was satisfying enough.
Before this, just watching the clip about Ji Ningshuang's coming to the mortal world had already made countless people fascinated by her.
Even movies cannot show such realistic and gorgeous special effects, not to mention that they are not special effects, but things that happen in reality.
Chang Qingxuan calmed down his excitement and surprise, and whispered, "I guess the teacher will come to inform us about this matter soon. We will definitely have a holiday by then. Let's sign up together the day after tomorrow to join in the fun, right?"
Yu Ze refused outright: "Forget it, I'm not a time traveler, and do you really think everyone can take part in this test?"
"There are so many people in Pingcheng. Although some of them are not time travelers, they will definitely want to join in the fun. A large number of people who sign up will be screened out."
Chang Qingxuan was startled, and felt that what Yu Ze said made sense. After thinking for a while, he said, "It's okay. I am a time traveler after all... I shouldn't even have the opportunity to take the test."
"You will be fine. With your family's influence, your father will find a way to get you a place in the assessment."
After Yu Ze finished speaking, he packed up all the books and put them into his schoolbag.
"Are you going to skip class again without waiting for the teacher to come and notify you?" Chang Qingxuan couldn't help but call out to Yu Ze.
He said it again because it was not the first time Yu Ze had done this.
However, Yu Ze’s grades were always stable, and he always went home directly without running around, so the teacher gradually became too lazy to care about him anymore.
"When the teacher comes later, at most he will just tell us that we will be on holiday for the next two days. I might as well go back early."
Yu Ze waved his hand and left the classroom through the back door with his schoolbag on his back.
……
In the towering building, Lu Ya, wearing a sexy dress, was sitting in the office, flipping through the documents in her hands.
The golden dress made her figure look plump and attractive. When she sat in the office chair, the dress clung to her hips, outlining her graceful and tight figure.
After Ji Ningshuang's arrival in the past two days, a lot of documents were issued from above, most of which were about future cooperation projects with Guiyi Sect.
This directly involves future cooperation, so it needs to be confirmed carefully and repeatedly.
At this moment, a notification alert suddenly came from the mobile phone next to her.
Lu Ya didn't even look at it and was about to turn off her phone.
Just when I reached out my hand, I took a look at the contents on the phone.
"The location of the spiritual energy test...is set at Pingcheng No. 1 Middle School?"
The woman was stunned when she saw the notification.
Then she picked up her phone and confirmed it twice more.
Countless thoughts burst into my mind, until finally, these thoughts condensed into one ball.
Lu Ya slowly typed a big question mark.
Pingcheng No. 1 Middle School… ?
Ji Ningshuang actually chose Pingcheng No. 1 Middle School as the location for the spiritual energy assessment?
