Chapter 2: Ryegrass King
Liu Yan is an inner disciple of the Yunhai Sect, only seventeen years old, and has already reached the seventh level of Xuanwu Realm. He is a well-known genius in the Yunhai Sect, expected to become a core disciple before the age of twenty.
In terms of appearance, she is a rare beauty, an absolute beauty. Among the inner door disciples, more than half of the male disciples are her pursuers. Even those outer door disciples and miscellaneous servants who don't know her will reveal their admiration when they see her.
This time, however, Liu Yan encountered an exception. As a inner door disciple, she had to challenge the core disciples to move further. Liu Yan was a genius, but she was still young, which was a weakness. Her cultivation was not as good as that of the core disciples, and she needed to reach at least the 9th level of Xuanwu Realm to have the strength to challenge them. Perhaps reaching the Earth Wu Realm would allow her to directly become a core disciple.
These two, Liu Yan has not yet achieved, so this time the sect disciple promotion tournament, Liu Yan did not go to join in the fun. Happened to get a medicinal herb, because the year is not enough and temporarily transplanted back, need to let the management of the medicinal field miscellaneous chores disciples help with planting, Liu Yan then found the miscellaneous chores elder, finally learned that a named Qin Yong's medicinal field miscellaneous chores disciple had just planted new medicinal herbs recently, can find him to exchange.
Then Liu Yan came, and as a result, she arrived at the place. Liu Yan had forgotten the other person's name, so looking at the figure busy in the medicine field, Liu Yan could only call out to them.
"What's he doing?"
What surprised Liu Yan was that the figure stiffened, raised his head and saw her, and indeed flashed a hint of surprise in his eyes. But immediately, as if seeing a fierce beast from the flood, he was so scared that he took two steps back.
This situation made Liu Yan's face sink immediately. Although Liu Yan didn't pay much attention to her appearance and didn't like those male disciples who coveted her beauty, seeing a man retreat in fear at the sight of her was unbearable for her as a woman.
"Willow... Willow sister, I... I was just... pulling weeds, how did you... end up here." Qin Yong's mouth twitched, revealing a smile that looked more painful than crying, and he became so nervous that he couldn't even finish speaking in one breath.
Right before his eyes was Yunhai Sect's renowned genius. In the True Martial Continent, martial prowess was revered, and the boundaries between realms were clear-cut. Qin Yong knew of five major realms: Qi Wu Realm, Xuan Wu Realm, Di Wu Realm, Tian Wu Realm, and Zhen Wu Realm. It was said that above the Zhen Wu Realm, there were further tiers, but Qin Yong wasn't qualified to know yet. However, in Yunhai Sect and the Tianhong Kingdom where it resided, a strong practitioner of the Zhen Wu Realm was already considered a peak expert, eligible for enfeoffment as king or marquis, and even the emperor would treat them with courtesy.
Each boundary is further divided into nine levels. Qin Yong is currently only at the third level of the Qi Wu boundary, and he can only become an outer door disciple when he reaches the seventh level of the Qi Wu boundary. Only by reaching the Xuan Wu boundary can he become an inner door disciple. Someone like Liu Yan, who is at the seventh level of the Xuan Wu boundary, is also a top-notch strongman within the inner door and has the hope to challenge the core disciples.
Core disciple, either cultivate to reach the seventh level of Xuanwu Realm or higher, and defeat the current core disciple in a challenge, then you can replace that core disciple's quota. Or, if you reach the Earth Wu Realm, you can directly become a core disciple. Liu Yan is only seventeen years old, even the inner door elder said she has hope to become a core disciple before the age of twenty, and is a true genius.
To know, ordinary people can reach the Xuanwu realm at the age of twenty, which is already very good. Qin Yong is now nineteen years old and has only reached the third layer of Qi Wu Realm, which belongs to a very mediocre talent. If it weren't for the Yunhai Sect needing miscellaneous disciples to do chores, Qin Yong would have been kicked out long ago. Even as a miscellaneous disciple, Qin Yong is considered very poor, otherwise why would he be called a "dragon suit"?
Qin Yong was able to see that Liu Yan was a genius, which is why he was so scared. Qin Yong now has the aura of a dragon suit on his back, as described above.
Dragon's Halo: You are like a candle standing in the fierce wind, surrounded by four crises, your life is threatened. The chaotic bullets of battle, the aftermath of cultivation, and even the passing genius can all harvest your life. Stay away from the crowd and cherish your life! This halo increases training speed by 1.1 times.
The passing genius...
Isn't that the lovely Liu Yan in front of him! Although it's said that living a life of seclusion is better than dying, Qin Yong didn't want to have another tragic ending after just crossing over into this world. So, even though the Liu sister in front of him was stunningly beautiful, surpassing those female celebrities on Earth by several degrees, Qin Yong still felt tense.
Liu Yan had no idea what Qin Yong was thinking, and seeing Qin Yong's unpleasant smile, his face turned cold. Anyone would feel unhappy being treated like this, especially someone as proud as Liu Yan. However, the more Liu Yan acted like this, the more threatened Qin Yong felt. In the end, Liu Yan lightly shook her head and didn't bother with it anymore.
After all, Liu Yan is an inner disciple and has already been able to challenge the existence of core disciples. Even those inner disciples didn't have a few who could be put in Liu Yan's heart. Qin Yong, this miscellaneous role disciple, was just a small person in Liu Yan's heart, not worth getting angry about.
"I recently obtained a spiritual herb, but it's still young, so I transplanted it back and need an idle medicinal field and a miscellaneous disciple to take care of it. The miscellaneous elder told me that you've just started planting here, and withdrawing now won't result in much loss, so I came over."
As Liu Yan, if it weren't for the spiritual medicine and the sect's relationship, and the spiritual medicine that Liu Yan brought back was important to herself, she wouldn't have explained so much to Qin Yong. The two of them were like two parallel lines that were worlds apart, fundamentally unable to intersect.
"Liu Shijie, don't you think it's better to change to someone else? My abilities are limited. I only started planting because the spiritual medicine in front was ruined by me." Qin Yong hastily declined.
Liu Yan saw Qin Yong refuse and her face turned cold again, she snorted: "You're looking down on me!"
"How dare I...I promised is all." Qin Yong's face changed dramatically, waving his hand in denial, and finally reluctantly agreed.
Qin Yong figured it out, he had to agree whether he wanted to or not. Seeing Liu Yan's expression ease up a bit, Qin Yong finally let out a sigh of relief, it seemed his life was spared.
"Alright, you take care of the medicine field first, I'll send that spiritual herb over tomorrow." Liu Yan said with satisfaction, turning to leave, her footsteps slowing, "By the way, the weeds in the medicine field grow so quickly because there's a king weed mixed in, as long as you get rid of it, this won't happen again."
After finishing speaking, Liu Yan floated away, leaving only a beautiful back view. Qin Yong watched Liu Yan leave, feeling some gratitude for her reminder, but also having a considerable amount of depression. Indeed, it was a supporting role, from start to finish, Liu Yan Shijie never asked his name once.
"Whatever, I'll just wait for another day. I don't believe that I, Qin Yong, a transmigrator with a system, will always be so unlucky." Qin Yong let out a small sigh and perked up again, entering the medicine field to search for the king of weeds among the miscellaneous grasses.
Liu Yan's hint, apparently didn't want that spiritual herb to be destroyed by the weeds, but also let Qin Yong benefit from it. As long as they solved the problem of Wang Cao, things would become much easier afterwards. After searching for a while, until evening came, Qin Yong finally found the Wang Cao among the weeds.
"This king of weeds is really cunning, hiding in the soil. No wonder it wasn't removed when pulling out ordinary weeds. But now, you're done for." Qin Yong looked at the weed that had caused him so much trouble for days and pulled it out of the ground with a sense of revenge.
This King Weed relies on absorbing the spiritual energy of the medicine field to survive, and has even approached the level of a spiritual herb. It's just that it doesn't have much medicinal effect. Leaving the medicine field, losing its source of spiritual energy, this weed king quickly withers away, soon becoming dry and brittle, shattering with just a slight application of force.
Suddenly, Qin Yong felt as if a strand of energy was being absorbed by him, extremely subtle, almost imperceptible. Qin Yong's heart stirred, and he hastily checked his own situation, and indeed, a change had occurred.
