Lu Yaoyao hurriedly replied, "Junior Lu Yaoyao."
"Lu Yaoyao? Nice na. It seems you are not a student of the academy?"
The sharp-eyed beautiful woman looked closely at Lu Yaoyao’s attire and asked.
Lu Yaoyao respectfully responded, "Senior, I ca with my brother. I am not yet a student."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuanzhi imdiately turned his gaze towards Yan Xiaohu.
Yan Xiaohu blinked his small eyes and quickly said, "It’s not , it’s my junior. He has been introduced to Master Lin by an inner courtyard disciple."
"Master Lin? Master Lin Daochen?" The beautiful woman asked.
Both nodded.
The beautiful woman did not dwell on it further but looked at Lu Yaoyao again and asked, "Are you interested in learning ice cultivation techniques from ?"
Lu Yaoyao was stunned for a mont, sowhat at a loss.
The beautiful woman said, "I forgot to introduce myself. My na is Lu Yuanzhi, an inner courtyard instructor. You have excellent potential. If you study with , I guarantee you will reach mid-stage Nascent Soul Realm within half a year."
Lu Yaoyao’s eyes lit up imdiately, but after thinking for a mont, she shook her head.
"I need to wait. If my brother can beco an inner courtyard disciple, I am willing to follow you, senior," Lu Yaoyao said.
If Zhou Qing is not accepted, staying here will be in vain. She cannot easily promise sothing uncertain.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yuanzhi showed a trace of surprise in her eyes and looked at her with interest.
Many people yearned to apprentice themselves to her but couldn’t find a way in. She voluntarily extended a rare olive branch, yet this young girl refused.
It seems her brother is very important to her.
Lu Yuanzhi seed to understand sothing at that mont.
But if she missed such a rare gem, she might regret it.
"Understood, wait here for a mont. I will go check with Master Lin!"
Lu Yuanzhi said, and with a surge of Spiritual Power, she transford into a blue light and disappeared instantly.
As Lu Yuanzhi left, the outer courtyard disciples, who had held their breath in awe, suddenly burst into exclamations.
"My goodness, what did I just see? Instructor Lu actually initiated enrollnt, unbelievable!"
"Yes, Instructor Lu is always cold as ice. She rarely talks to anyone, let alone students. What happened today?"
"Instructor Lu’s mastery of ice cultivation techniques is extraordinary. It’s said that she once assisted two legendary Spirit Severing Realm experts."
"I heard that Master Lu has a significant background in the capital city and cos from an influential lineage."
"That little girl’s temperant is quite similar to Master Lu, except for the person next to her with a round face and small eyes, looking quite sneaky."
...
Everyone’s chatter was incessant, looking at Lu Yaoyao with curiosity, envy, and amazent.
Lu Yaoyao was stunned. She never expected that the cold and elegant woman had such a grand background.
In the Taiqing Sect, even her master had not detected her special physique.
It was Third Mother who uniquely saw her difference and bestowed upon her the advanced Heart thod "Ice Purity Skills," helping her break through to the Nascent Soul Realm in one go.
With deeper cultivation, her mastery of the Divine Technique "Ice Lotus" beca increasingly adept.
Yan Xiaohu was holding an old mother hen, gazing around.
"Yan, what’s the matter?" Lu Yaoyao asked.
Yan Xiaohu said, "I am such a handso and suave swordsman. Why isn’t a teacher begging to learn from them?"
Lu Yaoyao: "..."
"Even if our fourth brother can get into the inner courtyard with closed eyes, I hope they won’t leave in the outer courtyard, that would be awkward," Yan Xiaohu smiled bitterly.
...
anwhile, in the inner courtyard!
Zhou Qing followed closely behind Second Uncle. Every red-clothed disciple they passed greeted Second Uncle warmly.
Clearly, no matter how Second Uncle changes his appearance, his good relationships are seemingly innate.
During the journey, Second Uncle continued to give Zhou Qing information about the academy.
The academy is divided into three cohorts.
First is the mysterious dean. No one knows what he is busy with or when he will appear.
Second Uncle only saw him from afar by chance two years ago, confirming he is in the Spirit Severing Realm.
If people knew the dean of White Jade Taixu Courtyard was such a formidable figure, countless sects under Longyuan County’s jurisdiction would flock here.
The dean likely hides his cultivation to avoid disturbance.
The second cohort consists of eight instructors. Besides Lin Daochen, the other seven are at Great Perfection Divinity Transformation Realm and are experts in their respective fields.
Do not underestimate Lin Daochen, although only in the late-stage Divinity Transformation Realm, his promotion to third-level Array Master when he condensed three thousand Spirit Seals will mark his breakthrough.
Next is the third cohort, including Law Enforcent Envoys, generally mbers from several major sects around Vast Mansion, all in the Nascent Soul Realm.
These envoys maintain academy order and handle various tasks. Although they cannot compare with the first two cohorts in cultivation, they are indispensable for the academy’s smooth operation.
Zhou Qing, listening to this, ford a rough idea of the academy structure in his mind.
As they walked along the winding paths, the surroundings increasingly tranquil, flowers and trees scattered, and a bamboo grove appeared in view.
