Chapter 1206: Chapter 663 Tai Yi Wu Yan Luo Chapter 1206: Chapter 663 Tai Yi Wu Yan Luo Chen Mobai heard the words and looked up, his eyes instantly brightening.
He saw a girl with a slender figure and delicate waist, pure and youthful, holding a stack of documents and walking up the steps from the mountainside. She was wearing a black, sheer blouse and a knee-length black skirt, which highlighted her skin as white and smooth as jade. Upon seeing Chen Mobai, her face revealed a genuinely amazed and joyful smile.
With light steps, her beautifully curved legs clad in black stockings and her petite leather boots barely touched the steps as she instantly leaped in front of Chen Mobai.
Seeing the vibrant young girl land in front of him, Chen Mobai’s gaze became a little dazed.
It was as if he saw an old friend whom he hadn’t seen for a long time.
But Chen Mobai was certain that this girl was not that person.
He asked hesitantly, “You are…?”
“Uncle, I’m Xiao Hei! When I was little, I got lost in the Five Peaks Immortal Mountains, and you were the one who saved me.”
Hearing this, Chen Mobai suddenly realized, remembering her as the likely descendant of Ancestor Baiguang’s lineage and was naturally impressed.
A young girl can change tremendously as she turns eighteen. The timid little girl from the past had now pletely transformed.
Her brows and facial features fully matured, standing gracefully and beautifully.
“You’ve bee so beautiful, I certainly couldn’t recognize you.”
This remark of Chen Mobai made her gleam with a smile, seemingly very pleased.
“Uncle, why did you e to the Daoist Academy?”
“The principal needed me for something; I had no choice but to e over.”
Chen Mobai shook his head, implying that he originally wanted to stay peacefully in Red Sandstone City, but Master Chengxuan’s summon left him no choice but to e.
“The principal can be quite nagging and bothersome at times, lecturing me often.”
Chen Mobai’s words, unexpectedly, touched on Xiao Hei’s grievances, and she suddenly began to plain about Master Chengxuan.
After hearing this, the corner of Chen Mobai’s eye twitched slightly, and he kept silent, not daring to agree.
Chen Mobai had heard about Xiao Hei’s background from Che Yucheng. She dared to criticize Nascent Souls because she came from a profound background. Although Chen Mobai was praised for having the Qualification of Deification, he truly did not dare to speak ill of Nascent Souls behind their backs.
“Little Chen, bring her up.”
Clearly, Xiao Hei’s words at the entrance of Building One were heard word for word by Master Chengxuan above, and soon Chen Mobai and Xiao Hei both heard his resigned reply.
“Yes, Principal!”
Chen Mobai, who was all set to leave, could only turn around and, with the youthful girl who cheerfully followed, re-enter the principal’s office.
Che Yucheng was also still there.
“Here, this is the final match schedule!”
Upon entering, Xiao Hei was not the least bit shy. She directly handed the documents she was holding onto Master Chengxuan’s desk.
Under the principal’s suggestive glance, Che Yucheng picked it up, glanced through, and indicated there was no problem.
“What’s this schedule about?”
Chen Mobai didn’t know what this was and couldn’t help but be curious.
“This time, our Daoist Academy is hosting an offline exchange and sparring event, and it’s Crimson Mountain’s turn to serve as the home field. The final eight contestants will determine their rankings…”
Xiao Hei, upon hearing Chen Mobai’s question, immediately jumped in to answer before Master Chengxuan and Che Yucheng could speak.
“Oh, I see, how is our Daoist Academy ranked?”
Chen Mobai asked again. Xiao Hei immediately puffed out her chest, but this time she didn’t answer. Instead, she looked towards Master Chengxuan and Che Yucheng with her gaze, hinting continuously.
“Ahem, it’s quite good. The chair of this year’s student council shares some of your flair; she occupies one of the eight spots—the classmate here beside you.”
Che Yucheng’s words made Xiao Hei’s face reveal an undeniable smile, and she looked at Chen Mobai with a bit of modesty.
“Only one? The Daoist Academy is far from its past glory.”
Chen Mobai slightly frowned and made a remark that kept the other three from maintaining their posure.
“There’s a number of talents in this year’s Scholarly Mansion, and it’s already very difficult for Xiao Hei to have secured one of the spots.”
Che Yucheng spoke up, in an uncharacteristically praising tone for Xiao Hei.
Chen Mobai: “Who are these talents?”
Che Yucheng: “Among the eight, Jumang Academy only has one, with a Heavenly Earth Spirit Root, and her ranking is even lower than hers.”
This was meant to show Xiao Hei’s exceptional talent, but upon hearing it, Chen Mobai just shook his head, reminiscing about the past.
“Merely a Heavenly Spirit Root. In my time, if one hadn’t mastered the Lasting Spring Cultivation, they wouldn’t even qualify to stand before me.”
Xiao Hei, who was continuously nodding along with Che Yucheng’s words, heard what Chen Mobai said and couldn’t help but pout, wanting to say something. However, recalling Chen Mobai’s record of single-handedly crushing all Foundation Establishment geniuses of the Immortal Gate during his time at the academy, she could only lower her head.
Che Yucheng: “Ban Rui from the Repairing Heaven Institute is a talent personally mentored by Elder Yuanxu. In terms of acplishments within the Guidance Book, he’s no less than senior figures like Lou Fengcheng and Ling Daoshi.”
Chen Mobai: “Lou Fengcheng and Ling Daoshi bined didn’t last ten moves against me.”
This statement made Xiao Hei, who was just about to raise her head to suggest she was on par with Ban Rui, lower it again.
Che Yucheng: “Bai Guang and Crystal from the Kunpeng Daoist Institute; the former has mastered the wind and rain sections of the Six Dominions Scripture, and the latter, the Darkness and Light Sections, neither inferior to Lan Haitian of the past.”
Only then did Chen Mobai seem a bit surprised.
