He Ronger glanced at the herbs in the elder's hand expressionlessly, and began to answer calmly: "This herb is called Qingying Flower, because the flower looks like a baby..."

As He Ronger's childish voice sounded, the other candidates who were originally panicked quieted down and looked at the calm little girl on the stage at the same time, with surprise flashing in their eyes.

The elder who was conducting the assessment originally asked so many questions with the intention of suppressing He Ronger, but as she listed the medicinal properties of the herbs, their growing environment, and what kind of elixirs were suitable for refining, his expression changed from watching the show to being surprised, and finally to admiring.

Until He Ronger finished the last word, the elder stroked his goatee and nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad, not bad, what's your name?"

"He Ronger."

"Well, you have passed the first test, so go wait aside."

He Ronger smiled and nodded at the elder, then walked to the empty seat beside the stairs.

Then, of the other nine candidates in the same team as He Ronger, only three stammered and answered the series of questions asked by the elders, while the others all walked down the stairs with gloomy faces.

The first assessment alone eliminated more than two-thirds of the monks, and in the end only more than a hundred people were able to enter the second assessment.

And He Ronger, who was only six years old, became the most conspicuous one among them.

He Xingwen stood in a corner of the crowd, looking at He Ronger's confident figure, with a look of relief on his face.

It seems that they have underestimated Rong'er before, or perhaps it should be said that they have never carefully observed her and understood her before. She is not as useless as others think. On the contrary, she is very hardworking and talented.

Soon, the second assessment began, and He Ronger was arranged to go on stage in the second team.

She watched the ten people in the first team come down dejectedly, clenched her palms, and walked up the stairs with a hint of nervousness in her heart.

As soon as her small figure stood on the stage, she attracted a lot of ridicule from people, just like last time.

"Hey, look at this, Qingling Sect is really famous. A little kid dares to come and take the entrance examination."

"That's right. I see that the little girl is only five or six years old. I guess she can't even remember the name of the medicine. Hahaha."

"Hey, don't say that. I just witnessed her first test with my own eyes. She answered the questions raised by the elders fluently, just as well as us adults."

"Is this true? Could it be that he knows the examiner and has already communicated with him in advance?"

"This...this is unknown."

At this moment, the leader of Qingling Sect, Yuan Sheng, and Elder Zhao arrived. They walked towards this side through the crowd, attracting a large number of cultivators to watch.

"Look, Elder Zhao, who is in charge of this assessment, is here!"

"Wow, Sect Master Yuan is here too! It seems that Qingling Sect takes this assessment very seriously."

"Really? I've always heard of Master Yuan's name, but this is the first time I've seen him in person. I wonder if there's a chance for him to sign for me."

"I admire Sect Master Yuan the most. I heard that he is already a half-step high-level alchemist. He is so amazing."

"Hey, hey, hey, the most powerful one is still the one from the Qixuan Sect. I heard that he has already refined a half-step high-level elixir, and his success rate is very high."

"That's different. The great-grandmaster of Qixuan Sect is already very old. He is an existence that we can never reach. But Sect Master Yuan is only in his early forties. He is the role model for you and me, and the example for us to learn from."

……

He Ronger also looked over when she heard that, and sure enough, she saw Sect Master Yuan and a green-clothed elder walking towards them.

Oops, it’s too late to hide now.

He Ronger pretended not to see it, turned around and faced the direction where Yuan Sheng was walking, lowered her head and groped for something on her body.

"Please, he can't see me, he can't see me..." He Ronger prayed in her heart.

The last time she chatted with Yuan Sheng in private, Sect Master Yuan had mentioned that she could be allowed to join Qingling Sect as an exception, but she declined. She only hoped that Sect Master Yuan would not disrupt her plan this time.

Yuan Sheng was originally thinking about the forbidden area in the back mountain. Just as he came to his senses, he found that many cultivators had surrounded him. He was about to ask them to be quiet, but when he raised his eyes, he saw a familiar figure on the examination platform.

Yuan Sheng's eyes lit up, and he trotted up the stairs without caring about anything else.

"Rong girl, why are you here?"

As soon as he spoke, everyone in the room suddenly fell silent. Even the elder who was about to go on stage for the test was stunned.

What? Sect Master Yuan knows this little girl?

They seem to be very familiar with each other.

So is this assessment still going on as normal? Should we give it a break?

When He Ronger heard Master Yuan's shout, her heart skipped a beat and a few black lines slid down her forehead.

Oh my God, why didn’t she expect that Sect Master Yuan would come in person to supervise the assessment of the new disciples?

Now that she was recognized, He Ronger could only turn around helplessly and gave Yuan Sheng an awkward smile: "Master Yuan, long time no see."

"Oh, Miss Rong, it's really you. Are you going to take part in the entrance examination of Qingling Sect?" Yuan Sheng looked at He Ronger, then at the other people present, and asked with a surprised expression.

"Yeah." He Ronger nodded reluctantly.

"Oh, isn't this unnecessary? You only need to tell me and choose any elder you want to be with. There is no need to go through so much trouble."

Yuan Sheng waved his hand and said.

The other disciples who were taking the test were all stunned and cast jealous glances at He Ronger.

He Ronger pulled Yuan Sheng's sleeve and walked to the side, whispering: "Master Yuan, I just want to enter Qingling Sect with my own ability. If you do this, many people will say that I am using a backdoor."

"Hey, Rong girl, what I value is your real ability, why do you care about other people's opinions?"

Yuan Sheng waved his hand nonchalantly, and then said to Elder Zhao who was in charge of the assessment behind him: "Elder Zhao, this is the girl Rong I mentioned to you before, just accept her into the inner sect."

He did not deliberately lower his voice when he spoke, so everyone present could hear it clearly.

Everyone was shocked by these words.

Several monks in the crowd who were waiting to take the second round of assessment looked at He Ronger as if he were an enemy.

In this assessment of Qingling Sect, each elder has a limited number of inner disciples. If He Ronger is admitted to Qingling Sect as an exception, it means that there is one less spot among them.

Originally He Rong'er wanted to refuse, but seeing the hostile looks around her, she pursed her lips and said, "Okay, I accept Sect Master Yuan's kindness."

Anyway, everyone knows that she is familiar with Sect Master Yuan, so there is no point in conducting further assessments.

At this time, Yuan Sheng frowned and looked at her, and after a long pause, he said, "Rong girl, why don't you become my disciple?"

"Wow——" the crowd suddenly exploded.
