BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1288
Very quickly, the surrounding light surged in and merged with this small Xuan formation.
Chu Liuyue was elated. This is a sign of it being solved!
However, the smile on her lips didn\'t completely extend. The next moment, she saw that the light on the large Xuan formation continuously rushed forward and quickly drowned her small Xuan formation.
Chu Liuyue sighed in disappointment. My way of thinking to solve this Xuan formation is right, but it\'s a pity that I\'m rather weak now. I can\'t go against such a Xuan formation.
When her small Xuan formation was completely absorbed, a ray of silver light in front flashed across, and the big Xuan formation silently disappeared.
Chu Liuyue heaved a slight sigh of relief. "It seems like Big Baby doesn\'t want to directly put me in a difficult spot with a Xuan formation."
"I\'ll give you three months to solve this Xuan formation completely. I\'ll come and check by then." Dugu Mobao\'s voice suddenly sounded in her ears!
Chu Liuyue\'s heart skipped a beat, and she looked outside.
/
It was quiet and silent as if nobody had been here.
She rubbed her brows. Three months… I really don\'t know where Big Baby got his confidence in me from… But luckily, I have basically already memorized that Xuan formation, so I can study it when I have the time.
She glanced at the sky, turned around, and opened the door. Like she had expected, the previously locked door silently opened.
Chu Liuyue thought for a moment, walked out, and went toward Medicinal Valley.
…
It was already in the evening. There weren\'t many people when she reached Medicinal Valley.
She saw Elder Meng Ye sleeping on the broken wooden bed in the middle at first glance.
He seemed to be facing the sky and sleeping. Sometimes, students would bring herbs and pay for them there.
After the previous incident, Chu Liuyue wouldn\'t really think that he was sleeping. The entire Medicinal Valley had always been in his control.
Chu Liuyue didn\'t disturb him either. She flew down and started looking for her own herbs.
"Chu Yue?!" The moment Chu Liuyue stood still, she heard a surprised voice from behind.
She turned around and smiled. "Senior Brother Zhong Xun, what are you doing here?"
Zhong Xun walked over and sized Chu Liuyue up, unable to conceal the curiosity in his eyes. "I should be the one asking you this! You haven\'t come out in a month, right!? I haven\'t seen you this entire time. Has Senior Brother Rong Xiu been giving you private lessons?"
Chu Liuyue\'s gaze flickered slightly as she smiled and answered, "Yeah."
It seems like these people don\'t know that Rong Xiu isn\'t at the academy.
"No wonder." Zhong Xun looked at Chu Liuyue in admiration and envy. "Senior Brother Rong Xiu is second on the Qing Yun Ranking. With his guidance, you must\'ve benefited greatly, right? Of course, Chu Yue, you\'re outstanding as well. You came to the academy two months ago and directly got onto the Qing Yun Ranking. It\'s a pity that this month\'s assessment just ended, and you didn\'t come. If not, your ranking would\'ve improved, right?"
Chu Liuyue then recalled that during her one month in Fiend Park, she had coincidentally missed this month\'s assessment.
She smiled and shook her head. "Senior Brother Zhong Xun, you\'re too kind. I\'m not that good."
After thinking for a while, she said, "Unlike Lin Zhifei—he got onto the Qing Yun Ranking earlier than me."
Zhong Xun made a \'tsk\' sound. "That\'s true. For this monthly assessment, he\'s already the 89th person on the Qing Yun Ranking for Xuan Masters."
Chu Liuyue was quite surprised. "Oh? So fast?"
"Heh, actually, this isn\'t his true ability!" Zhong Xun glanced left and right and lowered his volume. "You haven\'t been out for a while, so it\'s normal for you not to know this. When the few Xuan Master elders previously collaborated for a lesson, Lin Zhifei beat Jiang Zhiyuan on the spot!"
Chu Liuyue\'s gaze flickered slightly.
"Jiang Zhiyuan isn\'t weak. Being able to beat her just shows how strong Lin Zhifei is! Even though it\'s not considered a true battle but just a comparison on the chessboard, it was enough to prove that Lin Zhifei was outstanding." As Zhong Xun spoke, he felt very emotional.
"I heard that he\'s only 20 years old and looks very gentle and elegant. I didn\'t expect him to hide his skills… The people from the Xuan Master side say that he will at least be 30 ranks higher than he currently is now if he shows his true abilities. But for some reason, he doesn\'t seem very interested in this. He only handled the monthly assessment casually."
Not only Zhong Xun, but many people also didn\'t know what Lin Zhifei was thinking.
Everyone in the academy wanted to get onto the Qing Yun Ranking. The higher one\'s ranking, the greater the honor.
Many people might not even get to go onto the ranking once even after they left the academy, and it became their regret. Yet, Lin Zhifei didn\'t seem to care about it.
"However, this doesn\'t affect how everyone else thinks of him. Many people also say that he\'s the most outstanding black horse these few years—" When Zhong Xun said this, he couldn\'t help but glance at Chu Liuyue. "Of course, the Xuan Masters said that…"
Seeing his careful behavior, Chu Liuyue couldn\'t help but laugh. "Senior Brother Zhong Xun, you can say whatever you want. You don\'t have to worry about how I\'ll feel."
"You… really don\'t mind?" Zhong Xun asked in surprise.
One or two months ago, especially after Chu Yue secretly left the academy to help Senior Brother Rong Xiu and even came back in one piece, most of the people in the academy felt that he was the most outstanding one out of all the new students.
But now, the tides had suddenly turned. More people were leaning toward Lin Zhifei.
Any cultivator would be affected by such a change, right?
"I really don\'t mind," said Chu Liuyue seriously as she controlled her smile. I know Lin Zhifei\'s talent and capabilities the best. If not, I wouldn\'t have chosen to make an alliance with him back then. But now… why does it seem like everyone is secretly comparing the two of us?
Thinking of the scene of her \'exchanging blows\' with Dugu Mobao, Chu Liuyue couldn\'t help but sigh. With such a strong top global warrior beside me, how would I have the mood to mind that Lin Zhifei is stronger than me?
Seeing that Chu Liuyue really didn\'t seem to mind, Zhong Xun felt more at ease. "That\'s good, that\'s good. Anyway, you\'re cultivating with Elder Wan Zheng and Senior Brother Rong Xiu. Your future will definitely be bright!"
Chu Liuyue thought for a moment and asked, "You just said… Jiang Zhiyuan lost to Lin Zhifei? What happened? I remember that she\'s quite strong."
"She is decent, but she wasn\'t in good condition that day," said Zhong Xun hesitantly. "If not, she wouldn\'t have said such words…"
Chu Liuyue raised her eyebrows slightly. "What words?"
Zhong Xun shook his head. "She\'s still hung up about the Sky-Cloud Empire\'s princess consort position. Anyway, it wasn\'t anything nice. After the competition, she took leave and returned to Fairy Water Mound."
