A few days later, the spiritual conference officially ended.
All disciples withdrew from Yelan Kingdom and handed over their identity tokens.
Ziyun Palace was once again crowded with people, all waiting for the ranking list to be announced soon.
Bai Mengjin found his brother and sister in the crowd. Bai Menglian looked very good, while Bai Mengxing was a little sluggish.
Bai Menglian was beaming: "Brother did a good job this time. We found a demonic energy in a family's house, and we didn't want to mistake the possessed person. He blocked the demon at the critical moment and saved the lives of that family."
The way she looks now is like an old farmer who planted a seedling, worked hard to take care of it for a year, and finally saw the seedling grow into a golden harvest, full of a sense of accomplishment.
Bai Mengjin was surprised: "Brother is actually so enlightened?"
Bai Mengxing was injured and said wiltedly: "I'm not made of stone. Last time everyone tried their best to block the monsters in Liuyue City, but my cultivation level was too low and I couldn't do anything. This time I can finally help."
Bai Mengjin couldn't help but smile, and felt a little more emotional in his heart. The eldest brother who was ineffective in his previous life has grown into a qualified disciple of the Immortal Sect through the painstaking teachings of his eldest sister. It can be seen that with hard work, many things can be changed.
Yue Yunqiao was fine. She was teleported to a farm more than ten miles away from the capital. She found traces of the monster there and went to deal with the monster wholeheartedly. When the palace incident happened and Huo Chongxiao found her, she had already cleaned up the farm.
.
"Junior Sister Bai, I did it alone this time without anyone else's help." Yue Yunqiao looked proud, "I eliminated the monsters. The villagers were very grateful and gave me many things."
"Congratulations to Senior Sister Yue, you have achieved a lot this time!"
Yue Yunqiao felt embarrassed again: "Oh, my little harvest can't compare with yours! My senior brother told me that you did a lot in the imperial city. Oh, right, I haven't thanked you yet.
You, that bead is really a good thing. If I put it on my body, as soon as someone comes close to me, I can sense whether they are a human or a demon, and whether they have demonic aura..."
In the corner, Ning Yanzhi stood quietly.
Although he had a high reputation, his temperament was too cold. Many disciples around him looked at him with admiration, but no one dared to come up and say hello.
Until Huo Chongxiao came over, leaned on the railing next to him, and asked, "What is Senior Brother Ning thinking about?"
Ning Yanzhi glanced at him and did not answer: "Where is your junior sister? Why didn't you accompany her?"
Huo Chongxiao raised his chin: "I was having fun chatting with others!"
Ning Yanzhi looked over and saw a familiar figure. The white girl showed no indifference when facing him, and spoke to Junior Sister Yue with a smile.
Although they each talk separately, there is always a feeling that they are together.
Ning Yanzhi had an inexplicable uncomfortable feeling, as if he had lost something very important, but someone else had gained it.
Ling Bufei suddenly felt something and turned his head to look over.
The two looked at each other across the crowd.
After a while, Ning Yanzhi made the first gesture and nodded slightly to him. Ling Bufei smiled slightly in response.
Then everyone looked away as if nothing had happened.
But this scene fell in Huo Chongxiao's eyes, and he hesitated and said: "Senior Brother Ning..."
Ning Yanzhi calmly raised his eyes: "What's the matter?"
His eyes were as clear and quiet as the purest ice and snow on the mountains. Huo Chongxiao shook his head and smiled to himself: "It's okay."
How could he think that Senior Brother Ning had the same thoughts of love as himself? Not to mention that the girl had a marriage alliance with someone else. What was the difference between this and taking away someone's wife?
Huo Chongxiao gathered his thoughts and returned to the original topic: "Brother, who do you think the leader will be this time? Do you still have hope?"
Ning Yanzhi shook his head: "This time a night demon appeared, which not only affected the entire Yelan Kingdom, but also affected the lives of so many people. The bulk of the points must be here. My contribution is not much, and the points I earned are far less than that.
Although several of you have worked diligently to catch up in the past few days, it is not enough to close this gap."
Huo Chongxiao thought so too, and couldn't help but feel regretful: "Senior Brother Ning is strong enough to win the championship, but it's a pity that he was a bit unlucky this time, and the leader has to fall by the wayside."
Ning Yanzhi said calmly: "Even if I were asked to find the Night Demon in advance, I still wouldn't be able to think of such a way to deal with it. So, it's nothing to regret. It's true that my skills are inferior to others."
After saying that, a faint smile appeared on his face: "Junior brother Huo has done a great job in slaying demons this time. I think he will get a lot of points. I haven't congratulated you yet."
Huo Chongxiao also laughed: "I am really lucky. I just hope to be in the top ten so that my master will be proud."
While they were talking, someone came out of the main hall and started to put up the red list on the notice board.
The first thing to be announced was the ranking list for the foundation building period. Bai Menglian and Bai Mengxing squeezed over to take a look and ran back happily: "Second sister! We are on the list!"
Bai Mengxing is ranked 23rd, and Bai Menglian is ranked fifth. They have only been in the industry for five years. They are not as good as those talented students who have been taught by famous teachers since childhood. This result is already very good.
"Congratulations, big brother and big sister, for becoming famous in one battle." Bai Mengjin smiled.
"Oh, I'm far behind compared to you!" Bai Menglian felt embarrassed and showed a little bit of pride, "Finally, my ranking is good enough, and I can have the honor to meet my master when I go back."
She was favored by Wen Rujin, the master of the Deacon Hall, and became a junior sister with You Yan. There were always people making irresponsible remarks behind her back, thinking she was not qualified. This time she got a good ranking, and she could finally feel proud.
Yue Yunqiao is also back. Judging from her expression, her ranking should be very good.
"Junior sister Bai, I'm in the top ten! Ninth place!"
Everyone smiled and congratulated her.
After the foundation building list is posted, it will be the golden elixir list.
Generally speaking, there is a big gap between the points in the Foundation Establishment Ranking and the Golden Elixir Ranking. Like last time, Ning Yanzhi entered the sixth place in the overall ranking with his Foundation Establishment cultivation level. This is a very rare situation.
Bai Mengjin and his group squeezed past and saw Ji Xingge and He Shuangchi together. They waved wildly in the crowd: "Here, come here! I've reserved a place for you!"
So they squeezed over and looked at the list with Ji Xingge.
The list was posted from the back, and when it came to the top ten, none of them were on the list.
Everyone was very calm, knowing that they would be in the top ten. With Night Demon as big as him, how could he still make it to the list?
The tenth place came out first, and someone immediately shouted: "The tenth place, Tao Hanling from Canngling Mountain!"
Tao Hanling beamed with joy. She didn't expect that she could still be in the top ten. She probably got a lot of points by tripping the prison guard.
Soon, the next one came out: "Ninth place, Wuji Sect, Baili Xu!"
Baili Xu smiled and bowed his hands to his companions: "I'll go first. It seems I'm going to lose to you."
