The real big guys are those with connections in the eyes of the system!

"Junior sister, I shouldn't have lost to that Fu Xiu. He cheated me and I was careless... I'm sorry. I won't make the same mistake again next year."

"My cultivation is indeed ordinary, but I originally wanted to try my luck and maybe I could get a few more byes and advance, but unfortunately, God didn't favor me."

They each found excuses, but Chi Siyu didn't want to listen at all.

She doesn't care about the ranking in the assessment, what she actually wants are those prizes and resources.

Now there is nothing, and from time to time she can hear other people's sarcastic voices in her ears, which makes her very annoyed.

"It would be great if Second Senior Sister hadn't been injured, her realm hadn't been damaged, and she hadn't had any conflicts with us. As long as we ask, she can give us everything she won." The fourth brother's tone was indescribably lonely.

Chi Siyu heard these words. Although she hated Qi Rang, she had to admit that without her, these people were useless and could not get many resources for her.

It would have been better if Fifth Brother hadn't let her search for medicine alone in the beginning, or if he had pretended to be concerned when he noticed her injuries.

In the face of resources and interests, jealousy and disgust are not intolerable.

Thinking of this, Chi Siyu looked at Lao Wu with a bit more resentment in his eyes.

At this moment, she had completely forgotten that Lao Wu treated Qi Rang like this completely because of her suggestion.

"Can you please stop mentioning her? It's so unlucky!" Lao Wu was completely unaware of the resentment in Chi Siyu's heart. Thinking of Yi Qing's previous attitude towards him, he became irritated, "I've already said that this was just a slight mistake.

Besides, the current Second Senior Sister is no longer as brilliant as she used to be. Why do you always think about her?

Even if we don’t get the assessment reward this time, it doesn’t mean that we can’t get other resources.

You should know that every year after the sect's assessment, each of us at Qianren Peak will be given a mid-grade spiritual medicine."

The fourth elder nodded, "Yes, the sect does give us another set of spiritual medicine every year. We'll see what this year's set is. If it's suitable for Junior Sister's physique, then we'll give all of ours to Junior Sister."

Lao Liu frowned slightly. He always felt that something was wrong, but it was an established fact that the sect would give them spiritual medicine. He couldn't think of what the problem was, so he continued to keep silent.

"Thank you, senior brothers." When Chi Siyu heard that there were other elixirs, the expression on his face eased a little, and a gentle smile soon appeared at the corners of his lips.

But after the assessment, they waited for three days and still the sect didn't deliver the elixir.

A few people became a little anxious, so they simply went to ask Elder Xu, who was in charge of allocating resources, why this year's elixir had not been delivered yet.

"All the spiritual medicines that should have been delivered this year have been delivered. There is no way there would be any omissions in the things I personally arranged." Elder Xu said in a firm tone.

"Impossible!" Lao Wu retorted hastily, "None of us brothers received it, it must be you who forgot to give it to us. Where did you forget it? Please think about it again."

Elder Xu was unhappy.

If he said he hadn't forgotten it, then he hadn't forgotten it. What right do these juniors have to question him!

Elder Xu frowned and looked them up and down. Seeing that they all carried swords, he guessed that they were sword cultivators from Qianren Peak. "If I remember correctly, the one who won first place in this year's assessment was not a sword cultivator, but a music cultivator from Qingle Peak."

The fourth elder didn't know why he brought this up, but he subconsciously tried to save his own peak's reputation, "We can't have the first place every year. We should give the disciples from other peaks more opportunities to perform. We'll give them up this year."

"Stop talking nonsense. Now we should find out where the spiritual medicine went." Lao Wu interrupted hurriedly, "Elder Xu, please think carefully about whether you have taken the spiritual medicine to other places."

Do I need to recall this thing carefully?

Elder Xu felt that his memory was not so bad, "Oh, I gave it to Qingle Peak."

Lao Liu seemed to be thinking about something.

"Wrong delivery?" The fourth brother said quickly, "Then please quickly get the elixir back to us, or they will eat it up later."

Elder Xu gave him a strange look.

Lao Liu happened to see this scene. Something suddenly occurred to him and his face instantly became extremely embarrassed.

He was just about to urge a few of his fellow disciples to go back first, but it was too late.

"It's not sent to the wrong person. The elixir will naturally be sent to the peak that wins first place. Since no one from your peak can take first place this time, we certainly won't send the elixir over here again." As for helping them get it back now?

Oh, these things didn’t belong to them in the first place, but they were so shameless that they had the nerve to come to him to ask for them.

Sensing the contempt in Elder Xu's eyes, Lao Liu felt his face burning.

Lao Wu hadn't reacted yet, and asked blankly, "Isn't this spiritual medicine a special privilege given to us at Qianren Peak by the sect? How can it be related to the assessment?"

"If you have time, I suggest you take a closer look at the rules of the assessment and the related reward system."

Lao Wu wanted to ask more questions, but Elder Xu waved his hand at them, making it clear that he didn't want to say more.

The fourth and fifth brothers had no choice but to leave with full of doubts.

Lao Liu wanted to help solve the problem halfway, but he was not sure whether his memory was accurate or not. Thinking that he had to go over and take a look anyway, he simply kept his mouth shut.

"What? Only the top-ranked person in the assessment can get the special elixir. Then our previous ones..."

"I see!"

"Over the years, Second Senior Sister has won first place in the assessment every year, and we have also benefited from it and received spiritual medicine every year. As time went by, we became accustomed to receiving medicine, and later we always subconsciously thought that no matter what the results of the assessment were, the sect would always give us spiritual medicine. This is really a big misunderstanding!"

"When I came out just now, I noticed that the disciples around Elder Xu had strange expressions on their faces. They must be laughing at us, right?"

Okay, now everyone is feeling awkward.

"Forget it, let's go and don't think about it. Others will probably forget about it soon." The fourth brother said.

Lao Wu thought of a big problem, "But how should I explain this to my junior sister?"

Before they came, they promised to bring the elixirs back. If the junior sister could use them, they would give them all to her. If she couldn't use them, they would sell the elixirs and use the elixirs to buy other better things for her.

"I don't want to disappoint my junior sister."

"How about we pool our money together and go out to buy some for our junior sister?"

"I think it's okay."

After the sect assessment, the Great Elder took the time to visit Yiqing once again and brought her some healing elixirs.

Yiqing obediently used these things in front of him, but they had no effect at all.

The Great Elder refused to believe it and went to look for something else that might be helpful to her.

He went back and forth like this three times, each time coming with hope but leaving disappointed. Thinking that the sequelae of [Self-Examination] were recorded to be irreversible, he couldn't help but feel discouraged.

What a good seedling, it's a pity that it was ruined.

Those disciples really went too far. The punishment they received last time was probably too light.

Of course, she was also stupid. She knew that this was risky, but she still went ahead and did it anyway.

A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. It's such a simple truth, but she doesn't understand it?

Thinking of this, the Great Elder's gaze towards Yiqing changed from pity to blame.

"See if you can find a way to restore your cultivation. I'll come to see you next time."

He just kept saying "next time", but the person behind him never came again.

Obviously, this means that Yiqing has been given up.

Or if you are a disciple who suffers an unexpected accident and is rejected by the sect, you will probably become depressed.

But without being disturbed by others, Yiqing was actually happy to have some free time.

-

In a few months, the sect competition will begin.

According to the convention of rotating venues, this year it is the turn of Xuanling Sect to be the main venue for the sect competition.

The sect leader instructed the disciples to make some simple preparations first, and then other sects would come to make preparations for the visits.

"I recently had a moment of enlightenment during my retreat, and my cultivation has improved a lot. I am confident that I will get second place in this sect competition."

"Why only mention the second one? What about the first one?"

"The first one is of course Qi Rang, the swordsman of Xuanling Sect! My strength is pretty good compared to others, but it is totally not enough in front of her."

"The latest news - something happened to Qi Rang, and his cultivation has dropped drastically!"

"Ah? Then what are the chances of her taking first place this time?"

"I heard she doesn't even plan to attend."

"Then wouldn't it be very difficult for Xuanling Sect to get first place in this sect competition? I also have a little news here. The top three in this competition are related to the priority entry rights to a secret realm."
