Shen Xu saluted Lin Qingwu with a handsome and elegant manner.
Knowing his identity, Lin Qingwu was slightly startled, her eyes softened and she said, "What's the relationship between Mr. Shen and Xi Yue?"
Shen Xu couldn't help but glance at Yun Ziyue. While he was thinking about it, Yun Ziyue blurted out, "Of course we are friends."
"Yeah." Shen Xu felt very satisfied with Yun Ziyue's answer, and nodded in affirmation.
Lin Qingwu showed a hint of envy unnoticeably, and said with a smile: "Ziyue, I'm so happy to see you here."
After a few words of greeting, the originally noisy mountaintop suddenly became quiet.
Jing Cheng, dressed in sky blue, stepped on a flying sword and fell from the sky.
"Congratulations to everyone present for passing the first round of assessment of the Yunxiao Conference - Immortal Fate."
Hearing this, everyone was filled with joy and couldn't believe that they had passed the first round of assessment.
"What is going to happen next is our second round of assessment. Now, please take out the wooden signs you have found."
"Ah, there are words on it!" someone exclaimed, and two shining words suddenly appeared on the originally ordinary wooden sign.
Some are "water accumulation", some are "fishing", some are "herb collecting", and so on.
Jing Cheng nodded and smiled, "The words on the wooden sign are the test questions given by the sect leader and the four elders. As long as you can complete the corresponding tasks, you will pass the test."
"But, what does logging mean? Let's cut down trees?" someone asked.
Jing Cheng smiled but did not answer.
With a wave of Guangxiu, a barrier of flashing spiritual light appeared behind everyone.
"After passing this barrier, you will arrive at the corresponding mission location, please go ahead."
Unable to get the answer they wanted, people began to walk into the barrier one after another.
Yun Ziyue lowered her head and glanced at Jiang Ranchen's and Lin Qingwu's wooden signs, which read "Fishing, Collecting Herbs" respectively, and then looked at Shen Xu's "Logging".
Nod, no problem, just like in the book.
But, what the hell is this "meal" task card in her hand? Is there any assessment content like this in the book?
Moreover, it seems that she is the only one who got this exam question.
"..." So, is this good or bad?
With an inexplicable mood, Yun Ziyue followed several people through the barrier.
A white light flashed, and Yun Ziyue was already in an open world.
The peach blossoms and flowing water in front of you are like a paradise in the world.
Along the gurgling stream, Yun Ziyue saw a bamboo house in the peach forest ahead.
The bamboo house is surrounded by fences and has a quiet courtyard. There is a huge peach tree in the courtyard with tangled branches that looks like it is thousands of years old.
On a lounge chair under the peach tree, a man in black gauze and white robe was closing his eyes to meditate.
The wind blew, and countless petals fell down, staining the man's clothes and hair.
In addition, there was also a trembling sound falling towards the man's elegant and unparalleled face.
The moment the petals touched the man's cheek, a slender hand held it firmly and dropped it casually on the ground with his fingertips.
"Amazing!"
Yun Ziyue sighed secretly, she didn't see clearly when the man raised his hand, but for just a moment, his movements were so leisurely.
"Who is outside the door?"
Suddenly, a cool sound like water sounded.
Only then did Yun Ziyue realize that the man had opened his eyes and lazily sat up from the chair.
"Excuse me, I'm here to do a mission." Yun Ziyue bowed and raised the wooden sign in her hand.
Ling Mo looked languid, his eyes touched the mission card in her hand, and then he raised his eyebrows slightly and said coldly: "I didn't expect that someone actually got this token. Come in."
Yun Ziyue walked in and stopped a few steps away from him, "My task card says 'meal'. What do I need to do?"
Ling Mo looked indifferent: "It's simple, just make whatever meal you like."
"..." Yun Ziyue was a little speechless. Are Lingyun Sect's assessments so casual?
However, cooking is not difficult, and whether it suits your taste or not depends on the person.
At this time, Ling Mo had already walked back to the house. Yun Ziyue walked around the bamboo house and did not find the kitchen.
So, this meal requires her to start by building a kitchen?
Then, what about drilling wood to make fire?
Without thinking, Yun Ziyue walked directly into the house.
Ling Mo was raising a cup to drink tea, and when he saw her expression impatient, he asked, "Is there anything else?"
Yun Ziyue nodded and said bluntly: "There is no kitchen here?"
"..." Ling Mo's expression rarely froze, "Now I have it."
Sure enough, when Yun Ziyue walked out of the room, she saw a brand new kitchen located in the yard.
But what to do?
Yun Ziyue frowned, looked up at the peach forest outside the window, and suddenly had an idea.
The peach blossoms are in bloom now, so it’s a good time to pick some and make peach blossom cakes.
After tinkering for most of the day, I failed several times.
Finally, she made a plate of peach blossom cake that was not so delicate in appearance but sweet and delicious.
Putting a few peach blossoms on it for decoration, Yun Ziyue held the plate and went to hand in her homework.
"Try the freshly baked peach blossom cake while it's still hot."
Ling Mo glanced at the plate of peach blossom cakes that he couldn't tell what kind of flowers they looked like, his expression was hard to describe.
Seeing his disgust, Yun Ziyue could hardly express her words, and said hurriedly: "Don't look at the surface of everything. You can only discover its inner beauty by trying it yourself."
Ling Mo then picked up a piece, took a bite, and gradually relaxed his frown.
“The taste is really not that unsatisfactory.”
After saying that, Ling Mo looked at Yun Ziyue who was still standing there and said, "Let's go."
"Go?" Yun Ziyue was still wondering, but with a wave of Ling Mo's hand, she was sent directly out of the Taolin.
This time, Yun Ziyue appeared directly in a candlelit hall.
In front of the hall, Jing Cheng and Jing Chuan were sitting in front of the desk and talking.
Yun Ziyue's sudden arrival shocked both of them.
"You, why are you here?" Jing Cheng jumped up from the stool. This is Tianshu Peak, a world away.
Yun Ziyue shrugged and said innocently: "I don't know either, that man waved his hand and I was here."
"Man?" Jing Cheng was confused and said in disbelief: "Could it be that you have passed the second level of assessment?"
Jingcheng looked at Jingchuan with a puzzled look on his face, while Jingchuan looked sideways at the mirror, and then nodded at Jingcheng.
"But, it's only been a day there..." As far as he knew, the second round of assessment was the most time-consuming, and he might not be able to do it within two or three months.
"Elder Moyu..." Jingchuan whispered a name.
"..." When Jing Cheng heard this, his eyes were full of helplessness. What the hell, Elder Mo Yu is so perfunctory as an examiner.
From the conversation between Jingcheng and Jingchuan, Yun Ziyue realized that she seemed to have some kind of bad luck to be able to complete the second round of assessment in a short period of time.
This is really rare, she actually has a lucky day.
