What’s going on with this person…?
Even within the sect, there were few who dared to have fantasies about the sect master... How could such a thought come to the mind of an ordinary student in the mortal world?
Several people in the office were still in a state of shock, but they did not notice that Ji Ningshuang's cold face was melting quickly. There was a hint of tenderness between her brows as she stared at the scroll infatuatedly.
In the scroll, Ji Ningshuang, dressed in a palace skirt, was standing in front of Yu Ze. Even through the scroll, everyone present could feel the terrifying spiritual consciousness emanating from her at this moment.
Yu Ze stood there motionless, his body's instinct seemed to make him uncontrollably want to kneel down and stand in awe of this second-grade saint.
This is normal. When mortals face a second-grade saint like Ji Ningshuang, they will feel the pressure brought by the high-level life form.
That is a natural suppression.
"Wait a minute... this time it doesn't seem to be desire, but fear?" a maid suddenly said, noticing something wrong.
Mei'er looked at the scene in the scroll carefully and immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "It's really terrifying... I was wondering how anyone in the mortal world could dare to blaspheme the master."
Seeing this, Lu Ya's body gradually relaxed.
Fortunately, if this had happened in front of the 'examiner'...it's hard to imagine what the consequences would have been.
"Wait a minute... what is he going to do?!"
At this moment, Lu Ya suddenly heard Mei'er scream, as if she saw something that was enough to make her "scared".
Lu Ya raised her eyebrows slightly and glanced at the scroll in front of her.
But this glance made her expression gradually become dull.
At this moment, Ji Ningshuang in the painting exudes an invisible and intangible sense of oppression. She is dressed in a white palace skirt, like a fairy descending to the mortal world, outlining her tight and graceful figure. She is wearing a pair of delicate and small embroidered shoes. Her full chest supports the fabric of the clothes, making the front of her clothes look round and upright.
Her body exudes a soft pale white glow and her skin is whiter than snow.
It is beautiful, but it also reveals the majesty of a god.
This scene is enough to make people feel terrified and even want to kneel down at her feet.
However, in the face of such majesty, Yu Ze reached out and grabbed Ji Ningshuang's wrist, and then pressed her down on the bed behind him.
He slowly lowered his head, as if to kiss her red lips.
Ji Ningshuang's eyes flickered slightly and she quickly put away the scroll.
The office fell into silence for a long time.
But in the minds of everyone present, it was like a bolt from the blue, and their heads were buzzing.
Lu Ya's expression was a little dazed.
She began to doubt whether it was a right decision to send Yu Ze to take the spiritual energy assessment.
A normal person would probably have his legs weakened by fear when facing Ji Ningshuang just now, and would only choose to submit to Sect Master Ji.
Even when Lu Ya, who was outside the scroll, saw the aura emanating from Ji Ningshuang in the scroll, he felt an inexplicable palpitation.
But who would have thought that Yu Ze would actually face his fear in the illusion and give Ji Ningshuang, the examiner, her...
The two maids also looked unhappy. It was obvious that the scene just now had brought them too great a shock.
"This guy is too bold. He has blasphemous thoughts about the sect master before he even enters the sect. What will happen if he enters the sect?"
Finally, Mei'er spoke with an indignant look on her face.
The maid next to him also frowned: "This boy has a bad character and is not suitable for Guiyi Sect..."
At this time, Ji Ningshuang finally sobered up a little, her beautiful eyes half-closed, she looked less cold and fairy-like, but more charming.
"Actually... it's okay." Her tone was lazy and nonchalant.
Lu Ya was stunned for a moment and subconsciously looked at Ji Ningshuang.
"When faced with fear, he did not choose to escape, nor did he kneel down and surrender to the me in the illusion. Instead, he faced the fear head-on... It shows that this child has a very good character."
Under the astonished gazes of the two maids, Ji Ningshuang closed the scroll in her hand and placed it on the table. A cold and sexy voice floated softly from her red lips.
“He passed.”
Chapter 31 High Emotional Intelligence: Facing Fear
“Although I don’t know what the fear and desire in his heart are made of, he did not back down when facing the pressure from the Saint Realm. This alone is already invaluable.”
In the quiet office, Ji Ningshuang spoke seriously again in a cold and pleasant voice.
At this moment, numerous question marks flashed through the minds of the three people present.
This child constructed an invigilator in the illusion in front of the 'invigilator' and kissed her in person... Although it was just an illusion, and if you have to say it, Yu Ze did face his fear.
But no matter how you explain it, the fact is that he blasphemed Ji Ningshuang, right?
If today's events were to get out, even if what Yu Ze experienced was just an illusion, the internet would be in an uproar.
As a result, when Sect Leader Ji saw this scene with his own eyes, instead of getting angry, he forgave him with great tolerance and even praised him... ?
Yu Ze's behavior can be said to be facing fear head-on, but can't it also be translated as being extremely bold and lustful?
At this time, the maid Caiyun stepped out and said respectfully: "Master, please think twice. Although this boy is fearful and even shows no fear in front of you, it is also true that he blasphemed you. You are magnanimous for not taking it seriously, but if you accept him as a disciple of Guiyi Sect, I don't know if he will have any other thoughts in the future."
"Besides, the assessment hasn't ended yet... I don't know if he can pass the last assessment successfully."
These words were indeed spoken out of serious consideration for Ji Ningshuang. Mei'er also frowned upon hearing this and said in a cold voice: "I didn't expect there would be someone so courageous among these stars."
Ji Ningshuang looked calm as usual. She glanced at the two maids and said softly, "So what do you think we should do?"
Mei'er was about to say something, but when she looked up at Ji Ningshuang, she saw a rare desire for something in her eyes, which were as clear and cold as autumn water.
"..."
Mei swallowed subconsciously.
Something's wrong! ! !
Alarms immediately went off in Mei'er's mind.
After all, there is no need for the sect leader to monitor the spiritual energy assessment specially, and there is no possibility of cheating in the void illusion.
If that’s the case, why did the sect leader come to supervise the exam?
Are you free?
The sect leader is busy with all kinds of affairs every day, and it seems that he is never idle.
After all, it is strange that the Sect Master would cooperate with the Biaoxing.
It is even more strange that Pingcheng was chosen as the place for negotiations.
After a quick brainstorm, Mei'er immediately changed her words and said, "I...I think the Sect Master should make the decision on everything."
Caiyun was about to speak when she heard this, but suddenly she felt someone gently pulling the corner of her clothes.
Caiyun looked at Mei'er suspiciously. As a maid who had been with Ji Ningshuang for hundreds of years, she was confused at first when she was reminded by her companion, and then her eyes quickly changed as if she had thought of something.
She quickly changed her words: "I was just a little anxious to protect my master, but after thinking about it carefully, the master naturally has his own considerations... You can make the decision."
If you think about it carefully, Sect Master Ji went through countless difficulties before entering the Second Stage Saint Realm. No matter what he did, it must have been the result of weighing the pros and cons.
Morally and logically, they are not qualified to give Ji Ningshuang advice.
Ji Ningshuang's cold face showed a faint smile that broke the ice: "I know what you are thinking. I will agree with him, but I am interested in his talent."
"Just now, he almost surrendered to my illusion, but he finally controlled himself and faced his fear. This firm will is precious."
"He is not very old, but he already has such qualities. It can be seen that he has a promising future and will be a rare and good seedling."
Lu Ya's eyes lit up when she heard this. When Ji Ningshuang took the initiative to ask about Yu Ze, she felt that Sect Master Ji seemed to have some interest in the young man who also liked gentian flowers.
But even so, Lu Ya still didn't expect that after Yu Ze had just done such an amazing thing, Ji Ningshuang would still be willing to accept him.
The leader of a large ancient sect has a mind as broad as her full chest.
While they were still talking in the office, Yu Ze on the other side had already passed the second level of the void illusion and was walking towards the passage to the last level.
Ji Ningshuang tapped the table with her jade-like fingertips and asked casually, "By the way, do you have any information about his life?"
His voice was as clear and cold as ever, but his gaze, which fell directly on Lu Ya, seemed to carry some emotion.
Lu Ya raised her delicate eyebrows slightly, and said with some surprise: "If Sect Master Ji needs it, I can have someone prepare it... But won't you wait for him to pass first?"
Ji Ningshuang shook her head and said calmly: "I have never seen anyone have any problems. He will definitely be able to pass this illusion, so you can prepare in advance."
Then he added, "It's not that I need the information urgently, but I need to confirm the character of the future disciples who will join Guiyi Sect. After that, you can give me the information of the other people who have passed the spiritual energy assessment."
Lu Ya nodded slightly and smiled, "Okay, I'll have someone prepare it right away."
Watching this charming and passionate woman leave the office, Ji Ningshuang seemed to remember something and told the maid beside her:
"For those who have passed the spiritual energy test this time, let them go to the Celestial Palace and wait."
"I want to meet them in person and confirm their talents one last time."
Chapter 32 Meeting
Yu Ze pushed open the door of the cabin, and the whole world shattered before his eyes like a mirror, and then quickly reassembled.
What came into view was no longer the lush and green forest path from before. When I looked up, I could see the vast blue sky. The plains under my feet were desolate and vast, the mountains and rivers were silent, and from time to time I could hear the cries of unknown monsters echoing.
Suddenly, a young girl's weak voice came from behind: "Yu Ze?"
Yu Ze looked back and found that Bai Ruixuan, who was wearing a plaid skirt, appeared behind him at some point.
Her temperament at this moment is somewhat different from before. It is hard to explain that temperament, but it gives people the feeling that she seems to be much more attractive than before.
Although the practice has not started yet, after unlocking the first genetic lock, the human body will undergo some changes to a greater or lesser extent, and the mental energy will also be better.
"Have you passed the second level of illusion?" Yu Ze asked curiously.
Bai Ruixuan said softly, "The difficulty of the illusion is determined by a person's desires and fears. The stronger the desires and fears, the more difficult it is to pass that level."
"But I don't have much desire or fear," she continued.
Unlike Yu Ze, Bai Ruixuan, who grew up with a silver spoon in her mouth, has no aspirations. Her only pursuit now is to cultivate immortality.
Therefore, the second level was not very difficult for her.
"Since you're out, Qingxuan should be here soon..."
Yu Ze just muttered to himself when he heard a surprised voice from a distance: "Yu Ze, classmate Rui Xuan, how come you are faster than me?"
Chang Qingxuan trotted out from a space passage.
He looked at the two of them in disbelief and said, "I thought I would be the first one to come out of this level."
"What desires and fears did you encounter in the second level?" Yu Ze asked curiously.
"My desire is to play games, and my fear is being caught by my dad and the dean of studies when I go to the Internet cafe." Chang Qingxuan laughed.
Yu Ze: “?”
After a brief silence, he sighed silently.
Chang Qingxuan has been addicted to games since a long time ago. He didn't expect that the illusion he encountered in the second level of the void illusion would still be a game.
No wonder he said he thought he would be the first one out.
Students of this age group don’t have much to aspire for, especially those like Chang Qingxuan who come from a wealthy family.
"What kind of illusion did Ruixuan encounter?" Chang Qingxuan asked curiously.
Bai Ruixuan smiled slightly: "This is a girl's secret."
Because he was not very familiar with Bai Ruixuan, Chang Qingxuan turned his gaze to Yu Ze: "What about you, Yu Ze? What did you encounter in the illusion?"
"This is a boy's secret." Yu Ze said lightly.
Chang Qingxuan was unhappy when he heard this: "I have already told you my secret, you have to reveal at least one, um... why don't you tell me what fear you encountered in the illusion?"
Yu Ze was silent for a moment: "Ji Ningshuang."
This time, not only Chang Qingxuan, but even Bai Ruixuan who was listening to the conversation between the two couldn't help but roll his eyes at Yu Ze.
Everyone in Pingcheng knows that Sect Leader Ji is a flawless fairy. Normally, who would be afraid of her?
