[Inner Domain, The Great Mount Kunlun Mountain]
"Have you encountered anything dangerous? Something was wrong with this mountain today. We cannot spy on some rookies; for example, both of you disappeared within our sight." A senior brother in a white hanfu asked after he arrived in front of Huang Ying Yue and Huang Wan Yan, followed by the two other people.
It should be the sect's disciples.
"No." Huang Ying Yue replied expressionlessly.
"Oh, we forgot to introduce ourselves. We took on the mission of observing the new rookies in the sect's recruitment this year. Something delayed our mission, so we couldn't spy into everyone's situation." A man stood in the middle and explained.
"The matter is solved now, as we looked over the other places around here before coming to check on you. We just wanted to make sure everything was fine."
"We're fine, senior brothers." Huang Ying Yue uttered.
"Are you sure you're doing fine?" Another senior brother in a white hanfu glanced at the two figures who were wearing the dirty and messy robes. Then he suspiciously circled two people back and forth.
"We're fine. Thanks for your concern." Huang Ying Yue still replied.
with her plain expression again, so people will no longer doubt her.
Everyone twitched their lips. Fine? In her situation? What was wrong with these two rookies? They were covered in dirt, and their clothes were dirty, torn apart in some parts as if they had just engaged in a fierce battle.
Putting this matter aside, what was wrong with this ruined place, the scorching black trees, and the black hole in the land? They weren't stupid enough to distinguish
the battle between the rookie and the war beasts. They've seen the battles countless times in the past, yet they never encountered something like this.
"If you're fine, then take your time and process to the next layer. The second layer was higher than the first layer. If you're not hurrying, you'll fail the sect's task since the time is short." Looking at Huang Ying Yue's expressionless face like Huang Wan Yan, the senior brothers were helpless to ask more.
"Thank you, all the senior brothers." Huang Ying Yue nodded.
"We wish you good luck then." The senior brothers said to Huang Ying Yue and Huang Wan Yan, looked at each other, and then gestured something to each other as they jumped onto the trees and disappeared.
{This battle might alarm those old men in the sect; that's why they sent more people to check the situation here.} Xiao Yun's voice sounded.
{I think so.} Huang Ying Yue nodded in agreement as she walked forward. Her injury has now healed almost 80%, and she can now move normally. The smell of the blood here will attract the other beasts to come, so she has to be careful and never relax her vigilance.
{How are Xiao Li and Xiao Lan doing there?} Huang Ying Yue just remembered one thing to ask.
{We love this magical place, Master.} Xiao Lan's trembling voice could be heard because of his shocking expression.
{Master, where did you find this magical space? If I had known you had this space, even if you dragged me out, I would have been too lazy to go out. Living here was like living in paradise. By the way, where did you find this space, Master?} Xiao Li asked with excitement as he walked back and forth, striding forward to check everything inside the Ethereal Small World.
{Shut up, Bai Yi; don't disturb the master doing her work. This honor will explain it to you.} Xiao Yun's voice sounded followed by another whimper as Xiao Yun knocked the fox's head.
{Sniff… Master… Some beasts bullied this baby. Help!! Ahh!!} Xiao Li whimpered as he wiped his white fur in distress, but his eyes flashed with helplessness.
Knowing that he hated the Bai Yi name, Xiao Yun still called him this name whenever Xiao Yun was dissatisfied with him.
Everyone "...…."

[Divine Kunlun Sect, The Cloud Peak]
"Sect Leader, should we process the rookie's task as usual or stop?" The Great Elder Hao bowed respectfully to the handsome man in a white Hanfu sect's dress who was sitting on the chair in the Cloud Peak, surrounded by the white clouds.
"Judging by your analysis, the problem only happened to some of the several rookies with extraordinary spiritual roots. The crystal screen couldn't detect their movement in the Great Mouth of Kunlun Mountain. This matter might not be as serious as we thought." The sect leader, Shi Chun Lang, pondered after he observed the crystal screen for a while.
"You don't have to worry much; they might encounter their opportunities, and those opportunities might be related to their destiny." Shi Chun Lang's eyes flashed with wisdom as his deep eyes looked into the crystal screen in front of him. He put down his slender hands that were done doing some kind of weird and invincible prediction.
"This..." The Great Elder Hao was a little surprised by this answer; nevertheless, he won't ask anything more. Everything that the sect leader said is always right because...
"To make everyone feel at ease, send three of our senior disciples from all the peaks to check on those who were missing from the crystal screen's detection and ask them to observe the rookies' movements secretly, but do not interfere or ask anything much more than inspecting the current situation." Shi Jun Lang added as he stood up from his seat.
"I obey the sect leader's instructions." The Great Elder Hao saluted respectfully as he watched the tall figure disappear from the hall.
.......
(Present)
Huang Ying Yue and Huang Wan Yan battled with countless war beasts in the first layer of the Great Mount Kunlun mountain without stopping. They advanced from one place to another to find the war beasts to fight with while collecting the spirit grass from the war beasts.
These beasts were the war beasts that protected and lived in the Great Mount Kunlun mountain, so no rookies here encountered the big problem that Huang Ying Yue and Huang Wan Yan encountered.
Mostly, the war beasts got their instructions from the people in the sect to test these new rookies' courage and potential. As long as the rookies win the battle against them, they'll give the spirit grass to the new rookies, one per victory.
Some rookies were struggling with fighting and collecting the spirit grasses, while others got lost in the massive mountain.
Yet, somewhere here, Huang Ying Yue and Huang Wan Yan were enjoying the process of fighting and exchanging battle experiences with countless war beasts.
Through the process of finding the war beasts, with the help of the Fire Cloud Fox, Xiao Li, and the Ice Blue White Tiger, Xiao Lan, Huang Ying Yue, and Huang Wan Yan collected countless rare herbal plants and grass that grew in the depths of the mountain.
Some of the magic plants that grew in the secret place were uprooted by Xiao Li and Xiao Lan's masterpiece.
Of course, they ran into the war beasts and some magic beasts who were living there, but who is Huang Ying Yue?
To her, fighting with the war beasts was just a piece of cake. Her stage 12 of the Foundation Establishment was more than enough to deal with the war beasts, whose strength was equal to that of the cultivators in the Qi Condensation period.
Not to mention who those beasts were facing, if not their bosses, the Fire Cloud Fox and the Ice Blue White Tiger, who lived in this mountain for hundreds of years, even the sect people didn't know their presence.
Huang Ying Yue just asked the beasts to exchange the battle experience with her without hurting the beasts' lives.
The longer she was battling with the beasts, the more experience she gained, as she learned a lot from the battle. Her foundation was more solid now. Though she advanced faster than normal people, there was no problem with her body.
(A week later)
After thinking that she had collected enough spiritual grass, she was now at the edge of the mountain. These days, she encountered countless beasts, yet she chose to avoid the other rookies who were doing the sect's task.
Because she would rather not fight with those whose strengths are weaker than hers. Battling with them will delay their time; moreover, she doesn't want to be famous.
If the people knew what she thought, they might vomit blood and be dumbfounded. Others are struggling with this task, yet she was enjoying it as if it were her vacation.
Obviously, no. Please keep in mind that Huang Ying Yue just fought a huge and fierce battle with the Fire Cloud Fox, who suffered more than those people many times. She deserved her hard work. All her hard work and pain have paid off with her courage and persistence.
Now, she heard many rookies talking about Huang Bai Xing and Tan Zi Mo.
Huang Bai Xing's big movement seemed to shock everyone. Moreover, wherever she went, she always encountered trouble.
Huang Ying Yue sighed. Being the heroine wasn't an easy life. Fortunately, she was just a mere cannon fodder and nobody else.
So whether she lives or dies, no one cares. It should be said that people who knew 'Huang Ying Yue' couldn't wait to let her die a thousand times.
Standing in front of the blue flag, Huang Ying Yue looked around and saw a high cliff. This should be the place that led her to the second layer of the Great Mount Kunlun Mountain.
She didn't know what she would face when she arrived at the second layer. No matter what danger she'll face, she won't back down.
