 Chapter 225: Assessment
Translated by Rui
Compared to yesterday’s grand occasion, it was obvious that the number of people
at the square today was much lesser than yesterday.
Because only You XiaoMo would be participating in the assessment, both Ling Xiao
and Liu Yue had accompanied him there.
Even though they went through the backdoor yesterday, they were still not on very
familiar terms with Gao Yang, so You XiaoMo didn’t plan to find Gao Yang to go
through the backdoor again today. However, he didn’t know he was already famous.
Just as he had arrived at the mage assessment area, someone walked over.
You XiaoMo fixed his eyes upon the other and discovered that it was Gao Yang.
Judging from his looks it seemed like he’d been waiting for quite a while; You
XiaoMo couldn’t help but feel surprised.
Gao Yang was very happy to see him, he hadn’t discovered discover there’s now an
extra male wearing a mask by his side until he walked over. The male’s clothes were
luxurious, he didn’t seem like a normal person, but Gao Yang had another objective
today, so he didn’t pay much attention and shifted his gaze to You XiaoMo, saying
happily, “Fellow You, elder brother has already waited for you for quite a while. Ning
Jing DaoShi wants me to bring you over to see her.”
You XiaoMo raised his eyebrows, “She wants me to go to her?”
Gao Yang explained, “Aren’t you here to participate in the assessment today? It just
so happens that Ning Jing DaoShi also needs to assess a group of people; she
wants me to take you over there quickly. This is clearly better than you having to line
up in the queue for a long time.”
You XiaoMo looked towards Ling Xiao, and the other nodded his head at him. “Then
I’ll have to inconvenience Gao DaGe to show us the way.”
Seeing that he went to seek the masked man’s opinion, Gao Yang stared at him
blankly before quickly snapping out of it.
Going through the backdoor the second time, You XiaoMo no longer felt superior; he
could pretty much guess who the group of people Gao Yang had referred to are. He
was already in the limelight yesterday, he was dead set on not standing under the
limelight again today.
Three people followed Gao Yang and arrived at the destination after walking for ten
minutes. This time it was no longer at the guild hall he went to yesterday, instead it
was a building that was located behind the guild hall; it looked very grand. The outer
appearance of the building was particularly appealing.
You XiaoMo discovered that it was pretty similar to the mage hall he had previously
taken the assessment in; they all looked like a cauldron, it was just that this
cauldron was dark red. The plaque above his head had four vigorous and forceful
words on it — Mage Association! (E/N: Original Chinese characters are four.)
The Mage Association was the biggest and only association in Yan City, it did not
belong to any powerhouse and was established a few years ago by a few high level
mages of Yan City in collaboration. The association aimed to solicit all mages from
all over the land; as long as the mage met the association’s conditions, they would
be accepted. It differed from DaoXin Academy in that it had no age restriction.
This year, DaoXin Academy’s student recruitment assessment was still held at the
Mage Association, but it was only limited to the children of the City Yan’s four big
families and those from a few powerhouses, but there were also a few other mages
who did not have a wealthy background or patron, but had huge potential and talent.
When Gao Yang took them inside, there was already a group of people gathered at
the association’s assessment hall.
They hadn’t really arrived arrive late, yet there was a dense crowd here since hours
ago. Luckily, the assessment hall was very grand and spacious so it was not too
congested.
Everyone who was able to come here to be assessed were all privileged upper
echelons, thus they attracted attention from others as soon as they had arrived.
Multiple judging gazes shot towards them and landed on You XiaoMo’s group of
three; their strong curiosity couldn’t be covered up, some people even started
chatting softly.
“How come Gao Yan-gexia brought three people here? Which one is You XiaoMo?”
“Idiot, of course it’s the youth that looks the smallest and weakest.”
“Eighteen year old young genius You XiaoMo… so he really did come here, there’s
much to look forward to!”
“What is there to look forward to, do you think there won’t be a lot of other geniuses
from Yan City’s four big families? It’s not like a level four mage who’s younger than
him doesn’t exist; thinking back to those days, Teng ZiYe-gexia became a level four
mage when he was only sixteen years old, now he’s only twenty one and is already
a mid-level five mage.”
“Teng Ye-gexia was an existence that couldn’t be surpassed back in those days.”
Hearing whispering sounds around himself, some which were of admiration, some of
envy and others of jealousy… a hint of surprise flashed in You XiaoMo’s eyes; he
had thought that the assessment would be the same as yesterday, with only ten to
twenty people participating. He hadn’t imagined there’d actually be so many people,
and judging from their looks, they did not seem like normal students.
Gao Yang turned around to tell him, “Fellow You, these are all the juniors from the
four big families, there’s no need to pay attention to their words, they’re all just
people who say the grapes are sour because they can’t eat the grapes[1].”
You XiaoMo almost laughed out loud, he hadn’t thought that last sentence was
actually commonly used in this world as well, “Gao DaGe, you don’t need to worry
about me, I understand!” Jealousy is common to all men, but it hadn’t been too long
since he’d arrived at Yan City, he did not really understand anything to do with the
so-called four big families, so he definitely wouldn’t take it to heart.
Under the gazes of many, Gao Yang took You XiaoMo’s group of three through the
crowd to Ning Jing DaoShi’s place.
Ning Jing DaoShi had been waiting for them for a long time; seeing that they arrived,
her beautiful eyes looked around in a charming manner with hints of joy surging
around like rays of dazzling light. All onlookers couldn’t take their eyes off her –
although she was not young anymore, she was still the unrequited love of many
students.
“You brat, you made DaoShi wait a long time.” Ning Jing DaoShi looked at You
XiaoMo, saying this in a teasing manner.
“Uh… sorry.” You XiaoMo rubbed his nose and apologised with a slightly red face.
Compared to other people in the hall, he really did come quite late, but he hadn’t
even thought he’d come here to take the assessment in the first place.
Ning Jing DaoShi couldn’t hold it in any longer and went ‘pffft’ in laughter, “I’m joking
with you, brat. There’s no need to take it seriously, it was me who forgot to tell you to
come here for the assessment yesterday. It's not your fault, there’s no need for you
to apologise to me.”
You XiaoMo laughed and didn’t reply. Of course he knew that Ning Jing DaoShi was
joking with him, but if he did not apologise, then was he somehow supposed to
refute her words? If he said that, he’d probably be poked to a hornet’s nest by all the
gazes around him.
Even though Ning Jing hadn’t known him for a long time, she knew that his
personality was a bit shy so she wouldn’t tease him anymore. Her line of sight
landed on Ling Xiao, who’s standing behind You XiaoMowith a snow-white mask on,
and she raised her brows in surprise.
Although the male was wearing a mask, his noble temperament couldn’t be
concealed no matter what. Luxurious snow-white clothing outlined the man’s tall and
slender figure, the temperament he was giving off carried a slight unrestrained, yet
gentle vibe; unsurpassable beauty, but there also was a sort of delicate
attractiveness.
Without a doubt, this was an elegant and noble man; many people had taken notice
of his existence, quite a lot of people were softly chatting about him. Ning Jing was
somewhat curious, too; she hadn’t seen this man yesterday.
You XiaoMo observed Ning Jing DaoShi’s line of sight and followed it to find that she
was looking at Ling Xiao, so he explained, “DaoShi, this is my friend, he’s called
Ling Xiao. He went to participate in the warrior enrollment assessment yesterday.”
Ning Jing instantly revealed a gentle smile and nodded at him, “Student Ling, I
welcome you to join Dao Xin Academy.”
Ling Xiao slightly lifted the corners of his lips and opened his mouth to say, “Thank
you!”
You XiaoMo was suppressing his laughter so much that he could almost get an
internal injury from it, Student Ling, haha, it was so funny he could laugh to death.
Ling Xiao stealthily shot him a look, his eyes filled with traces of an unfathomable
smile, almost like he was saying ‘you’re dead meat’.
You XiaoMo coughed and hurriedly averted his gaze, “Oh yeah, DaoShi, hasn’t the
assessment started yet?”
Ning Jing smiled, “There are still a few people who haven’t arrived, we’ll wait a bit
longer.”
You XiaoMo was just about to ask who these big shots were; they actually made so
many people wait for them, even DaoShi was waiting for them, when noisy chatters
resounded from the direction of the entrance. He looked over and saw a group of
people walk in. The people who were crowding the entrance all willingly made way
for them, their attitudes really were respectful and modest, there were also hints of
ingratiation and fear.
A tall silhouette walked through the opened doors first, it was a male who was quite
handsome in appearance, he looked to be around twenty years old, his forehead
radiated touches of gentleness, a gorgeous blue robe made him seem extremely
honorable. The jade belt on his hips swayed in the air as he walked, magnificently
beautiful yet also chic and elegant.
Gao Yang to the side took notice of You XiaoMo doing the elevators and explained,
“This is Tong YueXu from the Tong family and is one of the geniuses of the Tong
family. Although he’s twenty years old today, he was already a level four mage three
years; there were a few reasons as to why he didn’t enter Dao Xin Academy, but this
person’s talent at making pills is extremely high. He counts as one of the best here
in Yan City. Apparently, he’s already got half a foot in the level five field already.”
You XiaoMo did not fully understand; he shifted his gaze from Tong YueXu to the
youth behind him.
The youth looked younger than Tong YueXu with delicate facial features. His looks
carried a lively and delicate beauty, when the other smiled, he had a pair of deep
dimples on his face and looked very sweet.
You XiaoMo asked, “Who’s the youth behind him?”
Gao Yang said, “The youngest son of the BaiLi family, BaiLi XiaoYu; he’s eighteen,
just like you. He became a level four mage seven months ago, he’s not the most
outstanding one amongst the younger generation of the BaiLi family, but his talent is
still one of the best there.”
You XiaoMo listened and was astonished, the big families were definitely worthy of
their name, they really did have numerous talented people.
As soon as Gao Yang finished speaking, the entire assessment hall suddenly
quieted down, but only for a few seconds; very quickly, there was another loud and
noisy commotion, as quite a lot of people, especially males, looked towards the
entrance with sparkling eyes.
You XiaoMo whipped his head around to have a look, and he just so happened to
get a quick glimpse of the enchanting figure that had just walked in.
T/N
[1] 吃不到葡萄说葡萄酸的人 Used to describe when someone’s bitter that someone else
has something but they don’t have it, and so to try make themselves feel better they just go
and say that the thing’s bad. The children’s story behind this saying is that one day
there was a fox who found a vine of grapes hanging up high and couldn’t reach it no
matter how hard he tried. Then a bird comes flying over and takes a grape, the fox
sees this and feels bitter so he just walks away while telling himself, “I don’t want to
eat the grapes anyways, they’re definitely sour.”
 Chapter 226: Teng ZiXin
Translated by Tracy
The master of that alluring figure was a stunning young woman whose beauty could
give Ning Jing-daoshi a run for her money.
Her stance was one of confidence, with her head held high and chest puffed out,
exposing her immaculate face for everybody to see – but her gaze was cold and
exuded an unapproachable aura. They say that an individual’s personality can be
deduced from the way they walk; she’d be the perfect example of this.
The woman was wearing a light purple veiled dress that almost touched the ground,
the wide sleeves were adorned with circling embroidery. A soft cotton belt was
wrapped around her waist which looked slim enough to snap with a touch. Sweeping
down her shoulders and back were fine strands of glossed silk, further enhancing
her powderless yet delicate-skinned visage and giving off an impeccable air of
nobility.
The lady was not in the least fazed by the attention of almost everybody in the room,
rather calmly making her way through the crowd with light and elegant steps. Her
enchanting stance did nothing to combat her cold aura; however, it caused many
people to simply lose themselves in admiring her image as if time itself had stopped.
Gao Yang had always been taken aback by the young woman’s beauty no matter
how many times they met. He took a deep breath to compose himself before
explaining: “She is the Teng family’s Teng ZiXin, the twenty-year-old sister of Teng
ZiYe. She is a mid-level five mage already; the same level as her brother, in fact,
and a rare genius that comes around once every thousand years or so. Reached
level four at the age of sixteen, but reached level five earlier than her brother. The
only reason she didn’t enroll in Dao Xin Academy then was because she went
travelling with her level ten shifu.”
You XiaoMo gulped. It looked like sky was the limit when it came to talent; he had
thought that these geniuses would’ve been at most around level four, but what did
he know? There was a level five in the mix with them, and not even twenty yet to
boot. Before he could continue on that depressing train of thought, You XiaoMo felt
a chilling gaze on his back and turned around to see the young man who had
entered last.
It was none other than Chai Jun, the person who had come to cause trouble not a
day prior. Seeing his curious gaze, Chai Jun’s face of hostility twisted into a sinister
smirk, followed by a throat-slitting gesture.
You XiaoMo noticed that his right hand was completely fine after being broken by
Ling Xiao yesterday. Mulling over it a bit though, it made sense that as a big family
in Yan City the Chais would have many powerful mages at their disposal. Getting a
pill that healed hand wounds was probably very simple. He ignored Chai Jun,
turning away at the gesture.
Gao Yang had evidently also noticed the youth, muttering with a scowl, “You’ve met
Chai Jun already – he doesn’t have much talent, but his twin brother Chai Zheng is a
level five student at Dao Xin Academy. They’re both people who take ‘eye for an
eye’ a bit too seriously, make sure you be careful around them.”
You XiaoMo nodded. “Okay, thank you, Gao-dage.”
“No problem, you’re going to be my underclassman in a few days, looking out for
you is my duty,” Gao Yang chuckled.
The group split up as they entered the big hall, walking towards their own quarters.
The other disciples of their respective families had all been waiting in the hall for
quite a while and, upon their arrival, immediately approached and surrounded the
new additions to the room with a hubbub of activity.
You XiaoMo withdrew his gaze; today sure was an eye opener. Had it not been for
Gao Yang, he’d never have known about the sheer amount of talent in Yan City, and
all high-levelled at that. A flare of giddy anticipation lit up within You XiaoMo at the
prospect of studying at Dao Xin Academy.
“You look very excited, Momo,” Ling Xiao murmured next to his ear.
“Of course,” You XiaoMo answered without hesitation, rubbing his hands together.
“Are you not excited?”
“I’m excited whenever you’re around,” came the grinning reply.
You XiaoMo shot the perpetrator a scowl, blushing. Why was it that Ling Xiao
became so much cheesier after establishing their relationship?
He remained blissfully ignorant of the judgemental gazes from several people he
had judged before.
An eighteen year old level four mage? BaiLi XiaoYu had some competition coming
his way. Despite his rather obvious lack of background, he was a student of Dao Xin
Academy all the same; in other words, competition. Besides, not every one of the
academy’s recruitment conventions could see the appearance of talent outside of
the four big families.
Looking over at the two figures, Tong YueXiu happened to catch the sight of a
flushed You XiaoMo sputtering at something Ling Xiao had said. A youth who
blushed unabashedly, huh. Needless to say, his first impression of this You XiaoMo
character was not bad. He couldn’t help but turn to his companions, musing: “Is that
the You XiaoMo you were talking about? You were right; I’m looking forward to
whatever he has to offer.”
Taking in Tong YueXiu’s positive reactions, the disciples of the Tong family sent
each other hesitant looks. If they were completely honest, though, this was very
much expected from a warm, gentle person like Tong YueXiu.
BaiLi XiaoYu, who was standing nearby, peeked at You XiaoMo likewise. The pair of
sharp eyes darting around brought an amused smile to many in the crowds. Anyone
originally planning to put down You XiaoMo and praise BaiLi XiaoYu unanimously
decided to halt that endeavour at the sight of his enthusiasm. Despite this, BaiLi
XiaoYu brought up the elephant in the room by himself.
“Hey, who do you reckon is stronger, him or me?” he pondered, turning back to his
clan members. Young people always tend to get a little competitive, especially as he
had finally come across someone who was the same age and level as him.
A clan member stepped out, stating without a shred of doubt: “Of course XiaoYu
would be stronger. You may be a low level four, but victory lies within sturdy
foundations.”
“How do you know he’s not a mid or high level four?” questioned BaiLi XiaoYu.
The reassurer paused; how should he know? It was all bullshit he had come up with
on the spot. BaiLi XiaoYu stared at him with ire.
“I knew it, you were just trying to humor me,” he huffed. “He’s a mid-level four, isn’t
he? There’s no need to explain yourself, I promise I won’t blame you for letting me
know the harsh truth. Promise!”
The clan member contemplated committing ritual suicide as he sweated profusely.
All the other spectators quietly giggled to themselves at his expense; sucking up to
XiaoYu like that, he totally had it coming.
They were, however, all incorrect. You XiaoMo was in fact neither a high or low level
four, and least of all mid-level. He was at the very peak of his level and would’ve
progressed to level five ages ago, had he not encountered the bottleneck.
On the other side, the rare genius Teng ZiXin had no interest whatsoever in You
XiaoMo, keeping her calm composure in leading the other family disciples through
the crowds and across the hall.
As for Chai Jun, he had lost all shreds of his dignity after the events yesterday,
especially after getting scolded by the elders for bringing shame to their family
name. He could only plot his revenge in silence.
With the few important figures present in the hall, basically all of the participants of
this exam were in attendance. The mage of the Mage Association who was in
charge of this particular exam emerged not long after. A particularly spirited member
with a head full of white hair stepped forward, announcing with a clear voice: “I am
the person in charge of today’s exam, you may call me Guan Yong. I am currently a
level eight mage. I hereby declare the exam underway and invite all those taking
part to come to the front.” Waves of disciples had already made their way to the front
as he spoke the last word.
You XiaoMo felt a little anxious, suddenly remembering an important question he
had for Ling Xiao. “Hey, Ling Xiao, do you think I should hold back a bit this time or
give it my all?” he murmured.
“That’s up to you. But I’d think that a person deemed as having more potential by the
academy would get more bias from them and be granted more privileges, hm?”
You XiaoMo was about to reply when he was cut short by Gao Yang, who had
suddenly turned back to speak to him. “The exam’s about to start, Fellow You, what
are you doing?”
With a start, You XiaoMo realised that most people had already left and hastily bid
Ling Xiao goodbye before rushing over. Thankfully, he wasn’t the last one; that
honor was reserved for the few even more nervous than him, tripping over their own
feet and drawing the crowd’s attention.
There were a lot of people in the big hall, but the majority was there simply to
support someone taking the exam and some for shits and giggles. Thus, there was
less than a hundred people who had emerged from the crowds in total, and less
than ten of those were true talents. Watching over the row of examinees, Guan
Yong’s gaze lingered on Te
ng ZiXin for a second before finally making its way to You XiaoMo, who had shuffled
in slowly.
Standing next to Tong ZiXin, You XiaoMo admittedly paled in comparison slightly.
Tong ZiXin had already reached low level five by the time she turned eighteen, and
so Guan Yong was almost subconsciously comparing You XiaoMo with her. To be
honest, Guan Yong couldn’t really be blamed for this because Tong ZiXin was
simply that outstanding; the appearance of any new talent would immediately be
compared to Tong ZiXin.

师傅 shī fù (lit. master/teacher). You know, like Master Shifu from Kung Fu Panda;
you must have heard the term before.

大哥 dà gē (lit. big brother). This term literally means eldest brother on a

 Chapter 227: To win over the heart
Translated by rara
There was one thing that people probably had forgotten about, but didn't mean to,
and that was the soul color test. Usually to some other forces, when they recruited
new disciples, they would use the testing stone to examine the disciple’s soul color
to determine the potential. But Dao Xin Academy was an exception.
The academy’s first requirement was to become a level four mage before twenty-
five; to be able to accomplish this achievement at this age the soul capability would
be undoubtedly huge. Besides, there were some people who could also achieve this
requirement despite the inferior potential. That was why Dao Xin Academy never
examined a student’s soul color.
What made a great mage, in addition to the raw potential, was the ability to control
the soul power and have a keen intuition. This point had no connection to potential,
since raw potential was just a foundation. It was not something that could bring you
food (t/n: important).
Since there were too many contestants, Elder Guan Yong didn't have the time to
personally test each individual.
But then, a very impressive image occurred. The ground suddenly rumbled as
numerous platforms rose above ground, each platform was one meter apart from the
others, and there were about forty to fifty platforms. Elder Guan Yong, standing in
front of them, looked among the crowd and said, “Today’s assessment will have two
parts, I believe everyone must have heard about it. The first part of this assessment
is herb distillation, and as everyone already knows, this is the basic fundamentals of
refining magic pills. It has a very heavy influence toward pill quality. Not only that,
this can also point out your soul's control power ability. Those of us from the Mage
Association shall provide everyone with a low grade level four magic herb, and set
four times distillation as a benchmark. If it is less than this value, you will
automatically be disqualified and not allowed to participate in the next part. Those
who distill the most shall be this assessment part’s winner.”
"I hope everyone will try their best; don't force yourselves to hide your talent.
Everyone can have the chance to become a Dao Xin’s student. I believe everyone
knows the school system: the higher potential you have, the more opportunity you
get, and vice versa. Don't waste your big change over a small thing, the gains do not
make up for the losses."
Elder Guan Yong's line of sight fell on those with the highest potential, even You
XiaoMo was in there, and then he continued, "If there are no complaints then I shall
start this first test. Everyone, please step up."
Reacting to Elder Guan Yong’s announcement, people started moving toward the
platforms – except for You XiaoMo, who was observing the crowd. He could tell all
the geniuses of the big four families had no intention to participate just yet. But then
when his eyes fell on BaiLi XiaoYu, the man himself suddenly turned around and
looked at You XiaoMo with a very bright smile, You XiaoMo could see this one was
a very energetic bishounen.
Since he had been seen, You XiaoMo felt he shouldn't ignore him, so he returned
back with a smile, and then he saw BaiLi XiaoYu’s eyes sparkle as he raised his
hand and waved back at You XiaoMo.
You XiaoMo (-_-' ), quickly averted his eyes; what a hyper lad.
But then when he thought back about Elder Guan Yong words, he felt a little
surprised. The words Elder had said were not that much different to what Ling Xiao
had told him before. Originally, he was hesitant, but now he had no choice but to
face this matter. Being humble was a good thing, but like the both of them had said,
being too humble would cause him to lose valuable opportunities and contribute no
help to his path. That past year at Tian Xin Sect was the best example.
Did he really want to replicate that life again?
You XiaoMo immediately denied the idea. He wanted to have more opportunity, and
that meant he should try to win over the daoshi’s heart. Since he had reached a
conclusion, he clenched his fist and finally became determined.
Standing behind him was Ling Xiao who hadn't took his eyes off You XiaoMo since.
Seeing You XiaoMo’s fist clenched with sparkling eyes like he had reached some
sort of determination, Ling Xiao couldn't help but smile. Seemed like someone was
about to blow people's mind, ah, which was a good thing. His man should be
someone standing above people, so that everyone could only look up to him with
envy and admiration.
You XiaoMo earnestly stared at those 40 contestants. Know yourself, know your
enemy, You XiaoMo felt he must first understand others' situations so that he could
make adjustments according to the situation.
Ever since the day he came out of the Paradise Realm, with another two months at
Earth Peak, most of the time You XiaoMo had spent finding out Ling Xiao’s situation,
but he also had some time to refine some level four pills.
But because he had never announced his true level, he never went to the Magic
herbs hall to receive his level four portion once. That was why You XiaoMo’d never
had a chance to try and distill a low grade level four magic herb. Usually he would
use his high grade magic herbs to practice, and he could distill them four times as
maximum.
As people knew, high grade magic herbs had less impurities than the low grade
ones. Distilling to a fourth time was the maximum he could do, not because his soul
power was not enough, but more like this was the limit of the herb. Even if he tried
once more he wouldn't be able to take any more impurities out.
But You XiaoMo had yet to try those low grade ones, so he couldn't predict how
many times he could distill them.
As time passed, the first turn’s contestants seemed to had finished their test. Their
faces were slightly pale, which obviously indicated their soul power was severely
reduced, but almost all the faces were showing a satisfactory expression; only a few
showed a dull face as if they had failed.
Four times was not too few or too much, but to level four mages, if they couldn’t
even distill a low grade magic herb four times, then their talent was only for show, no
need to pity these people. Because some people’s actual level had not reached
level four yet, they had merely relied on some secret methods to force leveling.
Since their foundation was unstable, through this distillation test, their true level was
shown.
When the time limit nearly ended, almost all the people had finished their part. Elder
Guan Yong looked at them and said, "The time has ended, everyone please line up
here for examining."
Placed on the podium on the right hand side of Elder Guan Yong, there was a
beautifully designed measurement device. This device not only could measure the
purity of the distilled herb, but also could accurately measure the number of
distillations, a very suitable item for this test. This device was precisely made by an
unknown blacksmith; although it was widely used nowadays, no one knew the name
of that blacksmith.
People started stepping up after being told, five people at a time, so it didn't take too
much time to finish examining them all.
Most people had distilled four times, only a few could distil five or six times, which
was a very good result. But there also someone tried “to fish in troubled water" ( t/n:
to take advantage of the situation for personal gain), they’d obviously only done it
three times and thought that they could fool the daoshi, but the device still accurately
pointed out the true result.
Those who had failed mostly left the assessment hall with a depressed expression,
since staying here only made them lose more face. There were also some who
chose to stay back to observe, because the geniuses of the big four family still
hadn't taken the test yet.
“The second turn will start now, the rest of you who haven’t taken the test, please
come up,” Elder Guan Yong said. There were only less than ninety contestants, and
half of them had already taken the first turn, so this would be last turn for the rest of
the contestants. When he said this, elder Guan Yong also intentionally looked at the
geniuses of the big four families. He had high expectations of them. Three years
ago, their older siblings had magnificently shone through all the other people. He
couldn’t wait to see how this year's potential students would do, since those people
were the future pillars of the city.
You XiaoMo took a deep breath. Finally, his turn had come. He randomly picked a
platform nearby, but then suddenly a blue shadow appeared next to him. This
shadow directly picked the platform on his left side. When You XiaoMo turned
around to see, he couldn't help but be stunned. It was BaiLi XiaoYu again, this guy
ignored all the other spots and directly ran here to this remote corner.
Seeing You XiaoMo looking at him, BaiLi Xiao Yu grinned back, revealing a row of
bright white teeth.
You XiaoMo averted his eyes to avoid turning blind by those sparkling teeth. It was
obvious that BaiLi XiaoYu came for him, since BaiLi XiaoYu didn't look like the type
to prefer to take the test in the corner. Moreover, that guy kept smiling at him so
brightly, You XiaoMo couldn't figure out what this guy wanted.
BaiLi XIaoYu’s action had attracted a lot of attention their way. But the person who
came next was even more shocking.
That person was Tong YueXu, his ‘tender like water’ temperament had always given
him lots of supporters, more than anyone else. Whispers started breaking out when
people saw him walking in You XiaoMo’s direction. But Tong Yue Xu seemed to
ignore them, he stood in front of the surprised You XiaoMo and gave a nod, then
gently smiled, "My name is Tong YueXu, I’m sorry for XiaoYu troubling you."
For someone to deliberately choose this corner spot, it clearly indicated the person
didn’t want to stand out.
You XiaoMo embarrassedly said, "I'm You XiaoMo, to know you ... I'm
very...........happy." Actually, you also gave me a huge issue.
BaiLi XiaoYu didn't want to be left behind, he ignored Tong YueXu words and rapidly
pointed at himself as his eyes shone, "My name is BaiLi XiaoYu."
You XiaoMo couldn't think of any words to say to this guy, "Yeah, I know you."
Standing diagonally opposite to them was Chai Jun, who was looking at them talking
and laughing with a grim face. Tong YueXu and BaiLi XiaoYu had initiated talking to
You XiaoMo, this had shocked him big time. But then when Chai Jun looked at Teng
ZiXin standing not far from here, he felt fortunate that Teng ZiXin gave no intention
to dally with You XiaoMo, or else in the future when he wanted to take revenge on
You XiaoMo, he would also need to be aware of Teng ZiXin.
After everyone had settled down, elder Guan Yong finally raised his hand and
announced, "Everyone on their podium, the exam starts now!"
 Chapter 228: Test
Translated by Yuanyulin
Hearing elder Guan Yong’s voice, You XiaoMo breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he didn’t intend to be too low profile this time, he also didn’t want to get
involved with the people from the big four families.
After he had composed himself, You XiaoMo focused his attention onto the low
grade magic herb on his platform; it was a level four copper leaf herb. Copper leaf
herb belonged to the level four medium grade magic herb, so it wouldn’t take too
much soul power to distill it. Nonetheless, it wasn’t too easy either; Copper Leaf
herb’s characteristics were rather stiff, so it was a little difficult to be distilled. But to
give a magic herb too easy to distill wouldn't test the true potential of someone. So
giving out a Copper Leaf herb as a test worked just fine.
You XiaoMo himself wasn’t particularly interested in the Copper Leaf herb. He has a
field of this herb that he rarely used inside his space; but because he had already
distilled it a few times, it came in handy for him.
Aside from the copper leaf herb, there was a cauldron on top of the platform. Its
color was black, a medium level cauldron. To be able to took at hundreds in one go,
the Mage association title is not just for show.
You XiaoMo first released his energy, then put the magic herb into the cauldron.
When the Copper Leaf herb fell into the cauldron, he immediately controlled his soul
power and wrapped it around the copper leaf herb.
Every time You XiaoMo did refining or distilling of magic herbs, he only paid
attention to it alone, so he hadn’t realized that many people were looking at him, but
after a while, everybody began to do theirs as well.
The entire hall became quiet again. Occasionally, there was an ‘eliciting’ sound
coming out from inside the cauldron. The huge hourglass that was in front of the
platform slowly dwindled down while everyone was concentrating. When the
hourglass had dropped to only a third left, You XiaoMo looked at the magic herb
inside the cauldron that had been distilled into a powdery form, and he couldn’t help
but let out a sigh of relief.
The powder then became very small. Because he had already distilled it six times,
the impurities in the magic herb had been reduced a lot, but he could still tell that
there were still impurities left inside the powder, and estimatedly, he still could distill
it two more times.
However, increasing the number of distillation meant that the difficulty and time
needed would increase, and the soul power consumption was also enormous. Not
only that, if he couldn’t finish it in the remaining third of the time limit, and stopped
halfway, the magic herb would become useless.
You XiaoMo didn’t hesitate for too long, he still has a lot of soul power left, and all
that was left was to give it a try to know whether he could do it or not. But he was a
little bit surprised, he hadn’t expected that he could distill a four level magic herb for
so many times. From his past experiences with distilling magic herbs, he could
never distill it for so many times.
Perhaps it was related to his own high level, because after he became a level four
mage, he rarely refined level three pills, and he’d always use a high grade magic
herb. He never really used the low level magic herbs inside his space, and when he
refined magic pills sometimes, he never really paid attention to the distillation of
magic herb.
When the time in hourglass only had ⅕ left, people were starting to finish theirs one
after another. The people who had already handed over their distilled magic herbs
left the venue and waited on the sideline. Because they were afraid that they would
disturb the people who were still distilling the magic herb, the examination would
begin after the hourglass had finished leaking out all the sand.
BaiLi XiaoYu, who was always smiling and cheerful, couldn’t help but make a tense
face during this delicate moment. His forehead began sweating, and his clansmen
who saw him like this couldn’t help but feel nervous. After a while, BaiLi XiaoYu
finally drew back his soul force from the cauldron while wiping his sweat on the
forehead. Right now, the hourglass showed that the time was only about a quarter
an hour left.
After BaiLi XiaoYu, Tong YueXu also stopped distilling. A gentle smile hung on his
face, his condition was clearly much better than BaiLi XiaoYu’s. After all, he was
already twenty years old, and had been promoted to level four mage long ago. His
experiences from these past two years were much higher than BaiLi XiaoYu’s, so it
came in handy for this distillation assignment.
“YueXu-ge, how many times did you distill it?” BaiLi XiaoYu who was beside him
asked eagerly.
Tong YueXu smiled gently and said: “Barely seven times, how about you?” If he had
more time, he actually could do it once more.
BaiLi XiaoYu’s face suddenly became down, and sadly said: “I only did it six times.”
Tong YueXu patted his head, “Copper Leaf herb is a level four mid grade magic
herb, you’re currently only a low level four mage, to be able to distill it six times is
already very good. Although other people could do the same six times as you, their
grades are higher than you, so you still have the upper hand.”
BaiLi XiaoYu found this argument was just, so he brightened up in an instant, “What
YueXu-ge said was true, I’m much better than them.”
Tong YueXu laughed, XiaoYu was this kind of person, if you say good words to him,
he would immediately forget all the bad things. While he was thinking about this, he
couldn’t help but look towards You XiaoMo’s direction. When he saw that he hadn’t
finished yet, wrinkled his eyebrows.
Not only him, other people had also realized this fact, now the time had almost come
to an end, yet there were still two people who hadn't finish distilling. They didn’t get
surprised about Teng ZiXin, but what they hadn’t expected was, the other person
actually wasn’t Tong YueXu, but rather the dark horse of this examination, You
XiaoMo.
Some people saw that his face was still bright and rosy, while others didn’t think so.
Numerous speculations came one after another, like perhaps his distilling speed
wasn’t fast enough, so he lagged behind.
Almost at the same time, he and Teng ZiXin finally finished.
A murmur of voices suddenly broke out from the crowd; although they felt that You
XiaoMo’s distilling wouldn't beat Teng ZiXin’s, they were still curious about how
many times he had distilled the magic herb.
Teng ZiXin obviously also noticed this situation. She couldn’t help but be surprised
that this youth called You XiaoMo would actually finish at the same time as her. She
hadn’t really paid attention to You XiaoMo before. Just like everyone else, she also
thought that there would be no way that You XiaoMo would be able to distill many
times.
Elder Guan Yong looked at the time on the hourglass that had finished, stepped
forward and announced, “The examination time is over. All examinees, please come
to the front. Just like before, please come in groups of five, bring your distilled magic
herb and put it inside the measuring device. Let’s begin.”
When he finished his speech, some mages began to rush forward while bringing
their distilled magic herbs and put it in. Many of them were rather confident. You
XiaoMo just stood on the outside and watched. When the five mages put their magic
herbs inside, the device began to shine, and then a green flame twinkled from the
quart’s glossy part on the device. The green flame has a tinge of autumn color in it,
from light ones to deep ones, and then four to five seconds later, a number
appeared on the quartz part. The deeper the color, the higher the number would
become. The highest one on the first batch was five times, and all five of them
passed.
When they went down, other batches went up. The opening batches’ numbers
weren’t high, and up until later, the frequencies were just between five to six times,
there wasn't anyone yet who did it seven times. Out of his habit, You XiaoMo
actually wanted to wait until the very last so he wouldn’t draw any attention, but he
hadn’t expected that BaiLi XiaoYu and others have yet to move too, so by the time
the person in front of him had finished, the only five people left were them. So, it
attracted even more attention.
When five geniuses stood together, ah nope, four geniuses stood together, he felt
really special.
Chai Jun wasn’t counted, he was already twenty four years old, but still a level four
middle grade mage. He wasn’t even as good as his two seniors.
“Come here, the five of you.”
Elder Guan Yong’s line of sight fell onto the last five people; his voice was calm, yet
filled with anticipation.
The first man who walked up was Chai Jun, he looked at You XiaoMo with
challenging eyes, and then walked to the measuring device and put his magic herb
inside. After four seconds, the device suddenly appeared with the number ‘six’ on
top of it.
Elder Guan Yong took a look, and then plainly announced: “Chai Jun, passed.”
Chai Jun’s talent was only average, compared to his twin brother, their differences
were far apart, and if one compared both of them, Chai Jun appeared to be
insignificant. However, Chai Jun himself never thought anything about it. On the
contrary, he was so proud of his brother Chai Zheng. If something happened, he
would say his brother’s name Chai Zheng, like how you would for a proud ancestor.
After the test, Chai Jun arrogantly lifted up his chin and glanced at You XiaoMo with
disdain and ridicule.
You XiaoMo looked away, this guy really was a typical idiot. He only did it six times,
there wasn’t anything to show off. He suddenly felt his decision was really right, he
should beat down this kind of idiot.
As he thought about this, he took out the jade bottle filled with the powdered magic
herb out from his robe.
When he walked up, more than ninety percent of people’s gazes all fell upon him.
The sudden appearance of the black horse. Finally it was time for him to prove his
own strength. They were waiting to see what kind of surprise he could give them.
 Chapter 229 Abnormal
Translated by rui
You XiaoMo wasn’t the only one who took action.
Tong YueXu, BaiLi XiaoYu and Teng ZiXin had also walked out.
They were going to take the test together anyways, in order to seek the limelight
Chai Jun took the test by himself first, if they also took the test one after the other,
then they would seem too self-righteous.
Although Teng ZiXin was conceited, she wasn’t proud to the point of being
supercilious.
Four people had arrived before the testing instrument; BaiLi XiaoYu put his herb in
first with an expression full of anticipation.
In order to look at his purity and number of distillations, other people paused for a
moment and just as he said before, it really was six times, and the purity of this six
times is quite high, clearly his foundations were very strong.
Although Chai Jun’s was also six times, it was obvious that BaiLi XiaoYu was better
than him; a few people instantly whisper words of praise softly.
Chai Jun’s complexion was very ugly, but BaiLi XiaoYu wasn’t someone he could
touch, not to mention that the Chai family was the weakest of the four big families;
above BaiLi XiaoYu, there were still a few brothers and sisters who were stronger.
With them both being the youngest sons of the family, the level of doting BaiLi
XiaoYu got was higher than his, he couldn’t express any jealousy in front of BaiLi
XiaoYu. Chai Jun then shifted his vicious gaze onto You XiaoMo, very much looking
forward to You XiaoMo possibly embarrassing himself in front of everyone.
You XiaoMo’s group of three actually weren’t surprised by this number; being able to
become a level four mage at this age, how could one possibly not have a bit of
capabilities, and just like Tong YueXu had said, with his current level, being able to
distill magic herbs six times was already extremely outstanding.
Elder GuanYong, who had constantly been standing on the side with an indifferent
expression, finally revealed a hint of a smile and nodded his head in satisfaction
before saying, “BaiLi XiaoYu, pass.”
Tong YueXu is next, his distillation of seven times heightened the atmosphere in the
hall.
But everyone’s expectations for him were very high in the first place, so this number
wasn’t out of people’s expectations.
Tong YueXu didn’t say anything extra, he retreated back to BaiLi XiaoYu’s side and
stood together with him. He then looked towards You XiaoMo and Teng ZiXin, the
last two who hadn’t been tested yet.
You XiaoMo looked at the association member who was standing next to the testing
instrument, but never helped him undergo the test, and was at a slight loss of
whether to laugh or cry.
His magic herb powder had already been put inside for a long time, but for some
unknown reason, this person actually never pressed it down for him, as if he were
purposely waiting until the others had finished testing.
He wanted to say, although he wasn’t planning to keep a low profile this time, don’t
be so painstaking.
But no matter how much he looked at the other person and stared with an x-ray-like
gaze, the other person was just completely aloof and indifferent.
It wasn’t until Tong YueXu had finished his test that this man finally started to move,
but at the same time he moved, Elder Guan Yong standing to his side also took
action, it was unknown whether it was just a coincidence or something else, the two
people almost pressed the button on the testing instrument at the same time.
Following their movements, two rays of dark green light that were almost on par with
each other instantly erupt, the flickering light causing the faces of the surrounding
people to be full of astonishment in a split second.
Green rays of light that were almost on par with each other, what did this represent –
this represented that You XiaoMo’s number of distillations had a 99% chance of
being the same as Teng ZiXin’s.
The entire hall suddenly became quiet.
The original lively atmosphere turned dead silent in an instant.
One could only see that on the front of the two testing instruments lie two numbers
emanating green rays of light — eight!
Eight times, this was the highest value that had appeared from the beginning to the
end of this assessment, everyone in the hall would’ve guessed that Teng ZiXin
would definitely have the highest number this time; the truth showed that everyone’s
predictions weren’t wrong, but in their hearts, Teng ZiXin’s number should have
been the only one of its kind.
In the end, this You XiaoMo actually gave them such a big surprise.
The number of distillations of magic herbs done by a level four mage was actually
the same as Teng ZiXin, someone who was a level five mage.
Did this mean, You XiaoMo’s strength could already … rival that of a level five
mage?
Every single person thought of this point in horror; if this was true, then one could
only fear that this You XiaoMo’s potential was higher than Teng ZiXin’s.
Teng ZiXin looked at the number on the instrument with a stunned expression, this
number ‘eight’ deeply and painfully stabbed at her eyes.
She had actually barked up the wrong tree, who would’ve thought that the You
XiaoMo whom she paid no attention to just a moment ago was actually standing on
the same level as her at this very moment. Although she had reserved a bit of her
strength appropriately this time, the difference between a level four mage and a level
five mage was not small.
Teng ZiXin quickly omitted the shocked expression on her face and looked at You
XiaoMo, who was standing to her side with a gaze showing he was absorbed in his
thoughts. Even though the Teng family was not lacking geniuses with high
potentials, if they could draw a genius like this to their side, it would still be beneficial
for the Teng family.
Amidst the crowd, Chai Jun’s eyes were wide open, looking at this scene in
disbelief.
He only snapped out of it after a very long time, his expression becoming
temperamental in a split second and his gaze gradually revealed a hint of hate.
This person whom he’d always looked down upon, always waited to be
embarrassed, actually already stood at the high altitude he still hadn’t reached. This
made his complacent from just a while ago directly turn into great mockery. This
strike wasn’t small.
This result also left Elder GuanYong in great surprise, to a point where his eyes
uncontrollably revealed his clear emotions. Back then, when he saw You XiaoMo
and Teng ZiXin finish at the same time, although he didn’t know the other’s number
of distillations, the feeling this youth gave him was quite special, that’s why he
purposely planned for these two people to be tested at the same time. He hadn’t
thought that the surprise would be so big!
Other than Elder Guan Yong, a few of DaoXin Academy’s daoshis gazes towards
You XiaoMo also become unusually fiery; the one who was the most excited was
NingJing-daoshi. Her beautiful face was even slightly flushing.
“This You XiaoMo makes me so surprised,” Ning Jing-daoshi said as she pouted her
lips.
Hearing that her voice was like she was talking to herself, Gao Yang also noddeds
his head, “It’s not only a surprise, I’m almost going to stop breathing, it’s very likely
that he’ll become a level five mage before the age of 19. Back then, Teng ZiXin also
rose a level at this age.”
NingJing-daoshi was pleasantly surprised, “GaoYang, you really have found a good
student for me.”
She had tested You XiaoMo herself, so strictly speaking, she was qualified to have
the priority of being his daoshi, but You XiaoMo also had to agree with this.
Gao Yang smiled, “It’s you who has good luck.”
Behind these two people, Ling Xiao folded his arms and looks at You XiaoMo who
was feared, admired and envied by everyone; the corner of his lips revealed a smile
with a hint of pride. Although he also liked the You XiaoMo from before, the You
XiaoMo who was now the cream of the crop attracted him even more, his heart beat
frenziedly and his blood boiled.
After a long time, those people who accidently went into stagnation finally took a
deep breath, the sounds of people whispering under their breaths became louder
and louder, the gazes that were looking at You XiaoMo now were not belittling like
before, because with this level of strength, his achievements in the future might not
be lesser than Teng ZiXin’s.
Elder Guan Yong adjusted his mentality, then he looked towards You XiaoMo full of
satisfaction and nodded his head a few times before smiling, “Pretty good, pretty
good, I announce that both You XiaoMo and Teng ZiXin pass!”
Even though he willingly wanted to have such a high profile, You XiaoMo was still
very excited, he didn’t pay any attention to the fiery looks other people were giving
him, instead he ran over to Ling Xiao without consulting anyone and couldn’t help
but say, “Ling Xiao, I’m number one.”
Ling Xiao was very happy that the other ran over to tell him first, hints of pampering
had revealed in those eyes beneath the mask, “Congratulations to you, continue to
work hard, I believe you can do even better.”
You XiaoMo was bothexcited and horrified.
This was Ling Xiao’s first time using this kind of tone to speak, he was not really…
used to it.
You XiaoMo shivered, “How about you congratulate me in a different way?”
Ling Xiao is angered that he laughs, he lifted his hand and knocked on the other’s
head, “Okay, what about this way?”
You XiaoMo clutched his head and tears stream down his face, he really was
looking for cruelty.
Because of You XiaoMo, Ling Xiao, who was originally mingled quietly within the
crowd, now also catches everyone’s attention; seeing their intimate actions together,
a few people started predicting his background. A man with such a temperament,
maybe he was from some powerful aristocratic family, but they hadn’t heard of such
a person before.
Thinking of this, some people couldn’t help but also become suspicious of You
XiaoMo’s background; a young genius with such strength could probably only be
trained with the power of a big family.
Just as they were thinking of random thoughts impetuously, NingJing-daoshi asked
exactly what they’d all been dying to know.
“You XiaoMo, my question might be a bit bold, but I don’t know whether or not you
have a shifu and who your shifu is, can you tell me?” Being capable of mentoring
such a pupil, his Master’s reputation was definitely not small; NingJing-daoshi had
instantly gone through those high level mages who had been famous for a long
period of time in her mind.
You XiaoMo was taken aback and suddenly thought of Kong Wen.
Although Kong Wen was his shifu by name, he’d never taught him.
This kind of person could not be considered to be his master. He also did not want
anyone to investigate the people from Tian Xin Sect.
But before he could open his mouth, Ling Xiao answered on his behalf, “He doesn’t
have a shifu.”
NingJing-daoshi astonishedly sayd, “How could he not have a shifu, then he…”
Ling Xiao answered, “He was able to achieve what he can do today purely through
his own hard work.”
NingJing-daoshi instantly became silent.
Those who had their ears perked up and were secretly listening on were stunned by
You XiaoMo once again; their bodies swayed and they cleaned out their ears with all
their might. They didn’t hear incorrectly, right? This genius who had a very high
chance of being able to compete with Teng ZiXin was actually self-taught? Holy shit,
he was clearly just a fudging abnormal!
 Chapter 230: Second Assessment.
Translated by Yuanyulin
You XiaoMo tied at first place with Teng ZiXin in the first assessment. This event
soon spread among the Mage Association. If the previous thing that happened at the
hall made You XiaoMo’s name spread, then today’s event really made his name
become famous.
The tutors who were astonished at You XiaoMo the genius eighteen year old before,
and were even threatened that they wouldn’t accept such person as their student,
were running to come to the second assessment, even before it started. They
wanted to know what kind of person is he, to even be able to compete with Teng
ZiXin.
There were two parts of the assessment. The second one would begin an hour later,
so everyone could do anything they wanted during this free hour. But they had to be
back to continue the assessment in an hour. If they were late, they would be
deemed as giving up the assessment on their own. You XiaoMo and Ling Xiao didn’t
leave the main hall. Instead, they looked for a place to sit and rest there.
The main hall has chairs for people to sit down and rest, but not that many. After the
end of the first assessment, many people ran to sit at that place. Since You XiaoMo
and Ling Xiao have gained Ning Jing-daoshi’s favor, she got two seats for them.
Although some mages passed the first round assessment, since distillation
consumed a lot of their soul power, if they immediately began the second
assessment, they might not be able to carry on the burden. So this one hour rest
was for them to restore their soul power.
Of course, not everyone needed a break, for example the genius Teng Zi Xin. The
distillation round didn’t take much of her soul power.
You XiaoMo didn’t pay attention to the curious glances that were thrown at him. The
assessment time could be said to be neither long nor short, and it was almost noon
now, so it’s time for him to eat. He took a few spirit fruits that were famous for being
sweet and tasty.
He bought spirit fruits when he went out before. At that time he thought that they
were tasty, so he bought a stockpile of it, so when he was hungry but too
inconvenient to go out and eat, he could just eat the spirit fruits. Under the gazes of
many eyes, he handed over the spirit fruit to Ling Xiao. It wasn’t the first time Ling
Xiao took You XiaoMo’s thing, so he took it calmly.
Gao Yang came over, surprised and asked, “Brother You, you came to take the
exams, yet still could bring spirit fruit?”
Spirit fruit wasn’t a precious or rare thing, you could buy it at many places, but it was
his first time looking at a person who came to take exams and still prepare for lunch.
Usually, people would be too nervous that they lost their appetite. He looked too
relaxed to be able to do that.
When You XiaoMo took a bite from the spirit fruit, he heard his sentence and
explained, “It’s not like that, I bought these a few months ago and I still haven’t
finished eating them yet. Ah, Gao-dage, do you want to eat it too?”
As he spoke, he took it from inside the magic bag… actually, he took the spirit fruit
from his space and then handed it to him. Gao yang lowered his head and look at
the spirit fruit that he held, it smelled really sweet. He originally wanted to refuse, but
he couldn’t help but stretch out his hand and take it.
You XiaoMo became happy, and took another for Ning Jing-daoshi.
Ning Jing was quite surprised that the spirit fruits didn’t lose its moisture even when
he put it inside the magic bag for that long, but she didn’t think too much about it.
She just guessed that he might put it inside of some kind of jade box, and took it
while saying her thanks.
You XiaoMo said, don’t need to thank him. Both of them helped him, so it was how it
ought to be.
Just then, a familiar voice suddenly rang from behind, “Wa, I want to eat spirit fruit
too”.
You XiaoMo turned his head, and saw BaiLi XiaoYu was looking at his half-eaten
spirit fruit drooling, with a helpless Tong YueXu on his side. Tong YueXu pulled
BaiLi XiaoYu, who became gluttonous while looking at You XiaoMo and his group
eating spirit fruit. With his status, he could obviously eat so many delicious things,
but the problem is, BaiLi XiaoYu was a glutton, so when he saw other people eating,
he could easily be bought off to eat the same thing.
Tong YueXu looked at You XiaoMo and cupped his own hand in front of his chest,
and modestly said: “I’m sorry to disturb you guys.”
You XiaoMo twitched up one corner of his mouth and said, “You’re not disturbing
us.”
He just stared at BaiLi XiaoYu, this guy was really rude, but he never met one like
him before, such a straightforward person, and looked so pure. And then he took out
two spirit fruits.
BaiLi XiaoYu didn’t wait anymore and took it, and then gave the other to Tong
YueXu, “YueXu-ge, he is a good person, you should eat it too.” After he said that, he
immediately took a bite of his own and made a munching sound.
Tong YueXu was dumbfounded, and finally became helpless, and said
apologetically to You XiaoMo, “XiaoYu is this kind of person, I hope Brother You
could forgive him.”
You XiaoMo waved his hand repeatedly, “Don’t worry, he’s fine like this.”
Tong YueXu smiled and said, “That’s right, I haven’t congratulate Brother You on
winning the first place in the first round assessment”.
You XiaoMo became embarrassed, he never got a first place in his previous life.
When he heard their conversation, BaiLi XiaoYu also joined, and said happily,
“Getting first place, and this time you have to beat Teng ZiXin. She’ll lose her face.”
“You don’t like her?” When he heard this, You XiaoMo asked curiously.
“Don’t like.” BaiLi XiaoYu shook his head without hesitation like a rattle drum, “She’s
so annoying, and she looked down on me.”
Yong YueXu shook his head and explained, “Three months ago, Teng ZiXin came
back with her master from a journey, and when she ran into XiaoYu, she said that
she had been holding a grudge for ten years now, but actually both of them have
been hating each other for a long time now.”
So it was like that, but…
You XiaoMo looked at Teng ZiXin’s direction. Actually, he didn’t like her either,
although he hasn’t spoken with her yet, she gave off a bad feeling, even though he
couldn’t explain it very well.
“You XiaoMo, can I call You XiaoMo? You can call me XiaoYu too.” BaiLi XiaoYu
suddenly came in front of You XiaoMo, and asked with sparkling eyes.
You XiaoMo was lost in thought and taken aback, but quickly composed himself
again and said, “You can.”
BaiLi XiaoYu immediately grinned, made a very happy face, and shouted twice,
“XiaoMo, XiaoMo, from now on we are friends!”
Just when You XiaoMo was about to reply, he heard Ling Xiao’s voice ring out in his
ear.
“Xiao Momo, both of you are a little bit similar.”
His voice was neither too loud nor too quiet, so a few people near them heard this,
and looked at their side.
You XiaoMo looked at BaiLi XiaoYu’s eyes that looked so pure, and asked him in a
low voice, “Where do we look similar?”
Ling Xiao tried to hold back his laugh, “When laughing, you guys look silly.” He
already lived for so long that he could see BaiLi XiaoYu’s true nature, that’s why he
didn’t stop them from becoming friends.
You XiaoMo: “ …………..”
BaiLi XiaoYu: “...................”
When he saw that both of them making the same reaction, Tong YueXu had to
suppress his laughter so hard.
BaiLi XiaoYu pulled You XiaoMo’s clothes, “XiaoMo, who is this person?”
You XiaoMo put his hand on him, “You can just pretend that he doesn’t exist.”
BaiLi XiaoYu said, “But I can't pretend that he doesn’t exist.”
You XiaoMo asked, “Why?”
BaiLi XiaoYu said seriously, “He just said that I looked as silly as you when I
laughed, I'm not a fool at all, and other people always say that I'm cute, so how can I
look like you?!”
You XiaoMo “.......”
You don’t have to be that sarcastic!
The people who watched the scene almost want to laugh out loud, these guys are
so funny.
Time flew quickly when they were joking around. Along with a clear bell sound, Elder
Guan Yong who was gone had come back and announced that the second
assessment is about to begin, so the examinees have to gather in front.
The second round assessment has less people than the first one, so in order to not
waste any time, they put dozens of platforms for refining pills at once so that the
examinees could take the test together.
Because he could choose whichever platform that he wanted, after You XiaoMo and
Ling Xiao heard the announcement, he chose the usual spot: the corner.
But not long after he chose his spot, a purple figure immediately picked the platform
next to him. You XiaoMo was startled when he found out that the person was
unexpectedly Teng ZiXin. When she saw him looking at her, Teng ZiXin looked at
him nonchalantly, removing the hair on her cheek with her two fingers, and smiling
softly with a hint of interest, “You XiaoMo, show me your strength.”
Even if you want to know my strength, you don’t have to purposely move to my side,
you know?
You XiaoMo thought, without saying a word while he moved his gaze from her.
Not far away from his place, BaiLi XiaoYu actually wanted to pick a platform beside
You XiaoMo, but he didn’t expect that Teng ZiXin would beat him to do that. She
really made his teeth itch (t/n: it’s used when you really hate a certain person that it
makes you want to bite them).
Tong YueXu had to comfort him, and let him choose the platform in front of You
XiaoMo.
The magic herbs used for the assessment were provided by the association.
Because they have to refine a level four magic pill to pass, the association wouldn’t
provide different magic herbs to suit each people. Therefore, even though Teng
ZiXin is currently a level five mage, she still got the same test material as other
people. So for her, this round’s assessment was as easy as drinking water.

 Chapter 231: Assessment final
Translated by Rara
You XiaoMo looked at the magic herbs placed on the platform, there were only two
portions. In other words, each examinee would only have two opportunities, if you
ran out of herbs and still couldn't refine a single pill, then that meant you have failed
the assessment.
You XiaoMo looked at the magic herbs and the recipe next to them, it was the potion
for a magic pill called Golden Sand. Golden Sand pill is a low rank level four magic
pill that was used for consolidating practitioner’s level after leveling up. To You
XiaoMo, he had no trouble refining a mid rank pills, but the fact was that he had
never refined this Golden Sand pill before. So You XiaoMo carefully read the recipe
several times to assure the process without mistakes, and then he finally got his
hand on refining.
In this part of assessment, you can choose to use your own cauldron or the one
provided by the Association. Since most mages were more accustomed to their own
cauldron, there was no restriction about this.
While You XiaoMo was about to put all the magic herbs into the provided cauldron,
the other people were quickly taking out their own cauldrons, and almost half of the
examinees were doing so.
You XiaoMo was stunned when he saw even BaiLi XiaoYu was no different.
He looked at the black cauldron, he felt that this cauldron was very good, compared
to all the one he had used before....was much better. Well, he didn't feel the need to
change it, and so he tossed all herbs inside.
Teng ZiXin who was sitting next to him and saw his actions, her phoenix eyes
flashed a bit.
A mage that could arbitrarily use any caudron, strictly speaking, this mage is much
stronger than others. At this point, even BaiLi XiaoYu couldn't even do it, and yet
You XiaoMo didn't even hesitate a little bit.
Tend ZiXin half opened her phoenix eyes. She had always been regarded as genius
of geniuses since young, and this glory had been followed her for more than ten
years. Seeing someone with a much higher potential than her suddenly appearing
out of nowhere, even if she had a better temperament, she still won't come to like
this person.
You XiaoMo didn't know Teng ZiXin's train of thought had taken a few stations
around, since at this moment he was fully focused on the magic herbs inside the
cauldron.
Because the first hurdle of this part of assessment was still the distillation.
In order to reduce the magic pills danger rate, more than a few times of distill is
needed. But since this part of the assessment only required examinees to refine a
complete level four pill, it was not necessary to spent too much time on distillation, at
least to avoid failing by time running out or making some accidental mistake.
But then this matter only applied to other people, not You XiaoMo. For him, since his
speed had always been fast and his error rate seemed non- existence, that was why
this problem never came into his mind.
But he was never too ignorant to disregard everything.
Although he only needed to distill several times, in order to refine a good quality pill,
You XiaoMo still did more than a couple distillations. It was not until the seventh time
that he finally stopped.
Because this was the first time he refined the Golden Sand pill, that was why he was
extra careful.
You XiaoMo carefully divided his soul power into smaller parts to control the herb
powder after he finished distilling them, and then he began to recall the next step of
the pill recipe...
In a blink of an eye, half of the time had passed. Those that chose to reduce the
distillation time so that they could refine a pill as soon as possible had began to
finish their process, and not long after, some people had finished.
BaiLi XiaoYu and Tong YueXu’s speed was not slow, about one fifth of the time was
left when both of their pills, which were a very fragrant blue color pill, finally flew out
of the cauldron.
Those who have finished their part, most of them subconsciously looked toward in
You XiaoMo and Teng ZiXin’s direction. With their potential, nailing this assessment
was a piece of cake, but there were also the pill quality.
The association only provided low quality magic herbs, after all they were used to
testing people, no need to use the valuable mid and top quality herbs.
That was why the outcome usually was only low quality magic pills, but due to the
number of distillations, the danger rate was different. What people were looking
forward to, was who would have a lower danger rate, Teng ZiXin or You XiaoMo.
By the time the hourglass was nearly to its end, they both had finally finished, and all
that was left was to examine the pill.
The device that will be using in this part was also the same device that was used in
the last part, but this time it was used for measuring the purity of the pills.
The more pure the pill was, the less risk it had. This can be seen based on the pill’s
color, and can be accurately measured through the light emitted from the device.
This time, You XiaoMo was not patient enough to be the last in line. He presumed,
the Teng ZiXin group would wait til the end again, so that they could gather the
spotlight to themselves. And so You XiaoMo quickly stole the last spot of the first
group that was about to get their pills examined.
This action of You XiaoMo stunned the Teng ZiXin’s people for awhile. The truth
was, not only them, but even other people could see he was being impatient.
BaiLi XiaoYu also wanted to examine his pill together with You XiaoMo, but seeing
others had already put their pills inside the device, if he asked them to give him the
spot then that would be making trouble without reason. (t/n: provoke pointlessly).
This was the result You XiaoMo had wanted. You XiaoMo placed his pill inside the
device, then looked at Elder Guan Yong who has no intention to move, "Elder Guan
Yong, sorry to trouble you."
Elder Guan Yong glanced at him, he could roughly guess what You XiaoMo was
thinking, so he pressed the button.
The device quickly emitted a very deep blue light, so vivid that it dimmed all the
other four blue lights that also came out at the same time as You XiaoMo's.
Elder Guan Yong felt a tingling sensation inside his throat, low quality herbs and yet
he could still refine the pill to such deep color. Seemed like he had done not a few
distillation, probably six times. Then Elder Guan Yong quickly recovered his line of
sight and looked at the other four people, and immediately said, "All five examinees
passed, next group please come up."
You XiaoMo immediately took the pill and then *pata pata* ran toward Ling Xiao.
(T/n: the *pata* part is a word use to describe the way the baby run, the kind of run
that is unsteady but happy without worry.)
Even though the herbs were provided by the Association, they were just low quality
ones, and to the ever rich and wealthy like the Mage Association, they could easily
afford this much. So after the assessment, the pills were given back to the mages.
You XiaoMo flauntingly gave the pill to Ling Xiao, excitedly saying, "Ling Xiao, try
this pill to see if it is good or not. This is my first time refining the Golden Sand pill."
Ling Xiao also didn't stop himself and directly tossed the pill inside his mouth,
chewed it a few times, then nodded, "Good, although the taste is a little lacking."
You XiaoMo understood and nodded, this was refined using low quality herbs, it was
obvious that the taste would be poorer than the high quality one. You XiaoMo then
patted his chest, "No fret, when I have the ingredients ready, I will refine some more
for you." There were two types of level four herbs of the Golden Sand pill recipes
that he didn't have inside his space. Seemed like he would have to go buy it.
But they didn't know, their dialogue was heard by other people and it had caused a
stir inside the hall.
First time refining Golden Sand pill, and yet the success rate was this high, although
probably it might have something to do with his level, but the thought alone was
scary enough.
And look at his companion, he could easily chew the pill raw, was he not afraid the
pill's efficacy would backfire and mess up his insides? This could cause death, you
know.
Gao Yang and Ning Jing-daoshi stared at each other, looked like You XiaoMo was
not the only monster, the man beside him was too oddly enough.
After finishing their conversation, You XiaoMo and Ling Xiao walked over to Ning
Jing. "Ning Jing-daoshi, since I have passed the assessment, when can I enroll?"
The jade drive he bought back in the Emerald Court didn't explain about it, so he
didn't know.
Ning Jing -daoshi softly said, "The admission will end tomorrow, so we will leave
Yan City the day after. The morning on the day after, we will gather at the square
and all of us will depart together, so remember not to come late."
You XiaoMo, "Then we shall take our leave here, Ning Jing -daoshi. Gao - dage, see
you the day after."
Gao yang looked at them surprisingly, "Don't you want to continue watching? You
can take this opportunity to learn about your opponents."
You XiaoMo shook his head,"I will have more chances in the future, I have
something to do next, so I have no intention to stay back."
Looking at You XiaoMo's figure hastily leaving the hall, Teng ZiXin also took back
her glance, she stared at the ‘also’ deep blue pill on her hand, her eyes suddenly
deep in thought. This You XiaoMo, she more and more couldn't figure this man out
anymore.
On the other side, BaiLi XiaoYu also looked at You XiaoMo’s back with eyes wide
open. Just right when he wanted to chat with You XiaoMo more, since he finally
managed to make a friend of the same peer, he didn’t expect to see You XiaoMo
would run off so fast. BaiLi XiaoYu wanted to follow him too but he hadn't examined
his pill yet.
Tong YueXu standing beside BaiLi XiaoYu and seeing him hanging his head
dispiritedly ( t/n: feeling dispirited/dejected), he knew what was inside his head, so
he patted BaiLi XiaoYu head and comforted, "XiaoYu, wait until we both enter the
academy, then you can see him everyday."
BaiLi XiaoYu looked up, "You are not allowed to lie to me."
Tong YueXu nodded and laughed, " I won't."
BaiLi XiaoYu pondered, "Then fine, I believe you."
Such serious expression, Tong YueXu didn't know whether he should laugh or cry.
After the three of them left the Mage Association hall, Ling Xiao also got very curious
as to why he was so hurriedly leaving.
They stopped at the door of the Association, where just this faraway they were still
able to hear the noise coming from the squares direction.
Liu Yue looked at his two masters, seeing them not muttering a word, he then quietly
stood behind them. After all, he had vowed to serve them, although young master
had not approved yet.
Ling Xiao asked, "What are you planning?"
You XiaoMo rolled his eyes, "I want to make money."
Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows, "You still secretly stored some more magic pills?"
You XiaoMo twitched his mouth, he clearly didn't ‘secretly' store anything, "Stop
fooling around, they are not for you to eat. Since I have run out of money, I want to
make some more.”
You XiaoMo felt a little restlessness without having some money in his possession,
and besides, who knew when they would be able to go outside again or how much
money they needed after entering the academy.
Liu Yue was trying to blend his existence into the background. Why did he feel the
"stop being naughty, kid" vibe coming off young master? He must have stepped out
of door with the wrong foot today!
Liu Yue seeing them not moving an inch, he could faintly figure out the reason, and
said, "Young Master, I know where the Yan city's business district is."
You XiaoMo immediately looked at him, "Why don't you say so sooner! Quick, lead
the way."
And so Liu Yue, who could be seen as half a local, successfully lead them to the
business district.
T/n: Phoenix eyes is very much an Asian thing. It a type of eye shape that is closely
resemble the slanted eyes. But not to be confuse, the main difference between
Slanted eyes and Phoenix eyes is the degree of slant in the eye. The Slanted Eye
obviously has a greater slant but does not possess the little curve at the outer corner
of the eye as in the Phoenix Eye. On the other hand, the Phoenix Eye does not slant
until the corner of the eye.
Fun fact, phoenix eyes is considered as one of the most beautiful eyes for Asian.
 Chapter 232 A small plan
Translated by Rara
Yan City was ruled by many forces, but there was only one business district. The
business district was the four streets that surrounded the Lei Tian platform. Each
street was wide and long, so massive that you couldn’t finish strolling around one
street within a day. Business district was a well-known place where all sorts of
people gathered.
Right now, You XiaoMo was standing at the beginning of South Street.
South Street had a long established history, its architecture structural changed
everyday. Compared to the other cities You XiaoMo had travelled to, this place’s
architecture was completely different. Not only did they bring an ancient aspect such
as carved balustrades and jade steps (t/n: the typical structure of wealthy chinese
ancient building), which were very splendorous and majestic, but they also had
added a drop of modern ambience in between.
Even with such fascinating architectural design, the fact was that since South Street
was extremely large, one couldn’t see the end.
Liu Yue took them to a magic pill shop located on the South Street. Although it was
not the largest shop here, it was the place that offered the most reasonable prices.
Qingshuang Pavilion was the name of the shop. Besides selling magic pills, they
also offered buying them. Liu Yue had heard about the good reputation of this shop.
A lot of outsiders and travellers also came here to make a deal.
Liu Yue also told You XiaoMo about how he used to receive low rank level three
magic pills from them as rewards for bringing guests in.
Hearing that, You XiaoMo’s expression lit up. He quickly pulled Liu Yue toward him,
“ Liu Yue, let’s say if you pretend to introduce us to Qingshuang Pavilion, and since
we are going to spend a lot, will they give you rewards after?"
Liu Yue didn't even flinch, "Possibly, but the amount depends on how big the
transaction with the guest. If it is a good deal, then there is a possibility they will
reward me with a low grade level four herb, or a low grade level four magic pill."
You XiaoMo immediately remembered the two missing types of herbs for the Golden
Sand pill recipe. "Good, well then, later you should tell the people of Qingshuang
Pavilion that you introduced us here, act like you don't really know us, understand?"
"This Liu Yue understands." Liu Yue immediately figured out You XiaoMo's intention.
Although he was a little surprised, since in his eyes, young master You didn't seem
like one who was lacking in magic herbs, but since young master had said so, then
he would obey.
And so, Liu Yue very proficiently took them to the Qingshuang Pavillon.
Coincidentally, the shop manager happened to be there as well. Since Liu Yue had
introduced them to several guests in the past, the manager remembered him.
The manager saw Liu Yue bringing two people in, guessed that he meant to
introduce new guests to them, so he silently looked and judged their clothes, and
apparently these two new guests were not some common folk. He knew today he
might be able to pull in some good deals, so he quickly switched to his unique
profiteer smile and came over.
"Manager Li, I bring you two new guests." Liu Yue came over to Manager Li’s side,
revealed a flattering smile like he was the person on the bottom of the social
pyramid. He was the type of person that had to cater others to have a better life.
Besides, to fulfil his young master's wish, only by doing so would the manager not
be able to see through the act.
"Ok ok, you go to the lounge and wait there." Manager Li waved the hand to shoo
him away, his eyes fell on Ling Xiao and You XiaoMo’s figure, he immediately put on
a respectful attitude. "Sir, may I know what magic pill you want to buy?"
Qingshuang Pavillon mostly sold magic pills, while they only had a few magic herbs,
but it didn't mean they didn't have any in possession. Since Qingshuang Pavilion
was not their only property, they also had a branch shop selling magic herbs.
"Do you also collect magic pills?" You XiaoMo looked at the interior design of the
Qingshuang Pavilion and judged.
Manager Li was stunned for a moment, he then carefully looked at You XiaoMo
again, now that he realized it, this little boy was a mage, but he didn't know his level.
"Sir, Qingshuang Pavilion does also collect magic pills, but we won't buy low grade
magic pills."
Since Qingshuang Pavilion had a strict policy, usually they only took large
transaction deals, and their mages could refine low grade magic pills. This was why
they only collected mid grade or high grade magic pills, limited to the pill level.
You XiaoMo took out a jade bottle of magic pills from his magic bags, "I know you
don't buy low grade pills, Liu Yue has told us about this, what I want to sell are high
grade types, level three and four ones. So, care to make a deal?"
Manager Li was petrified. He then stared at the bottle in You XiaoMo's hand. After a
careful observation, they were indeed high grade magic pills. Through the
transparency of the jade bottle he could see the color of the pills was very pure. Who
would expect this boy could give him such a grand surprise.
High grade magic pills cannot compare to the mid and low grade ones. Regardless
of the level, all high grade pills will never lack on the market ground, not like low
grade pills, only some small shops would buy them.
Manager Li saw You XiaoMo take out a bottle of level three pills and a bottle of level
four pills, and on top of all, every single one of them was high grade. Naturally, he
was overjoyed, and quickly nodded, "We will! We will! Of course we will buy them!"
Manager Li quickly took them to the back. Since the hall had all kinds of people
there, a little precaution is always better, because even though level three and four
pills were less valuable than level five and above, high grade pills is a different story.
Stepping inside, You XiaoMo didn’t worry about Manager Li’s greed would awake,
because having Ling Xiao beside him reassured him a lot. You XiaoMo directly gave
the jade bottle to him, "You can check them to your liking, if you accept them, we will
discuss the price."
Manager Li took the bottles, and said he wanted to have the Qingshuang’s mage
check them, because he himself was not a mage.
After a while, the curtain was lifted and came in a girl wearing pink clothes with an
engaging aura.
Seeing the girl, manager Li was in a cheerful mood, "Miss Qing Qi, I have to trouble
you with some more magic pills."
The pink clothes lady had bright and limpid autumn waters eyes (t/n:a way to
describe a beatiful soft and clear eyes, like in Memoir of Geisha, how author
described the mc’s eyes), a beautiful feature ‘like flower like jade’ ( t/n: it means
beautiful) that gave off a very tranquil temperament. Hearing Manager Li’s word, the
beautiful face showed a " beatiful girl from a humble family" expression while she
gave a faint smile, "It’s okay, Manager Li."
The moment You XiaoMo saw her, the image of "soft girl" came straight into his
mind. At long last, he finally managed to meet another normal typical woman, but
You XiaoMo had lost interest in soft girl.
(Ra’s note: well he’s all out for Ling Xiao’s hard dick now.)
But with a glance, You XiaoMo immediately recognized this girl was a level five
mage, her age probably somewhere around 20. A level five mage at this age, clearly
her natural endowment shouldn't be low. You XiaoMo didn't expect his first time at
the business district he would end up encountering a young level five mage, a
female to boot.
Yan city is really a crouching tiger, hidden dragon ( T/n: hidden talent) region.
"I am Qing Qiu, may I know your name?"
Qing Qiu stood in front of them, even though her voice was soft, it gave a very rare
benevolent vibe.
"My surname is You, pardon Miss Qing for examining the magic pills inside the
bottles." You XiaoMo once again took out the jade bottles inside his magic bags. He
didn't introduce Ling Xiao though, after all they came here for business, not making
friends.
Qing Qiu didn't ask back, she picked up the jade bottle You XiaoMo had placed on
the table, her eyes couldn't help but reveal a trace of surprise. They were all high
grade magic pills. She carefully looked at them, then she talked to Manager Li,
"Manager Li, they are all genuine high grade magic pills, level three have 20 pills,
level four have 30."
Manager Li gave a squinty eyed smile, " Sorry for troubling miss Qing Qiu."
Qing Qiu faintly smiled, "Not really, it is my obligation."
After that she didn't bother their discussion anymore, she put down the bottle and
went away, but before she left she also secretly stole a glance at You XiaoMo, if she
was not wrong, this You fella was also a level four mage. He was so young and
already had such high achievements, looked like they would meet again in the
future.
After she had left, You XiaoMo finally mentioned about the price with Manager Li.
Because You XiaoMo was in lack of money, he didn't intentionally give a high price,
and Manager Li didn't disregard You XiaoMo’s young age and falsely gave a wrong
price.
Just like Liu Yue had said, they offered a fair price. One level three pill is 80 crystal
coin, one level four pill is 200 crystal coin.
Level four prices compared to level three was more than double, which was
something You XiaoMo had estimated. He remembered before when he was at the
Danxin shop, a single mid grade herb already cost 20000 gold coins, and since the
mid grade was already expensive, don’t mention the high grade ones.
Fifty magic pills, You XiaoMo sold for 14000 crystal coins, he once again deeply
appreciated the fact being a mage was a very profiteering career, moreover, he only
needed to pay for the herb seeds.
The two of them left the Qingshuang Pavilion, and not long after, Liu Yue also came
out.
You XiaoMo immediately went up, "So? Did you get the Stone herbs seeds and
Ichthyosaurs herbs seeds?"
Liu Yue said, "Manager Li said only the Qingcao Court would have them, so he told
me to go there to receive the reward, and he also sent the message to the manager
of Qingcao Court." Although he was really curious about why young master only
needed the seeds and not the full grown herbs, but he didn't ask.
"Quick quick, go there."
Manager Li was a man of his word, not only haf he asked Manager Zhou to reward
Liu Yue with the Stone herb seeds and Ichthyosaurs herb seeds, he was also willing
to give him more seeds of different types. Liu Yue took the opportunity and asked for
some more. Since Liu Yue only needed a few seeds, and Manager Zhou
appreciated the fact he had helped them getting big customers, and not to mention,
such few seeds were not worth much money, so he gave Liu Yue a very generous
award.
After he got the seeds, Liu Yue quickly ran to You XiaoMo to win his young master’s
favor.
You XiaoMo was really surprised, because Liu Yue was very clever, knowing that he
may not need the common level four seeds, so he specifically chose those
uncommon ones, and indeed there were several seeds he didn't have.
Before the sun started setting, they arrived back at the inn.

Ra note: basically this his how people classify a magic pill:
Rank: within a level, a pill can be classified into low - mid - high rank, to compare the
usefulness of the pill, the higher the rank, the more efficient it have.
Grade: classified into low - mid - high grade, which indicated the pill’s quality. The
quality is affected by the quality of the herb, and of course, by how you refining it. A
carefully crafted pills (high grade ) obviously would be more valuable.
While herb is much simpler, depend on its quality , it can be either low - mid - high
grade/quality.
 Chapter 233 Another two options.
Translated by Yuanyulin
When the night came, You XiaoMo left Ling Xiao behind and went to the space.
Ever since they came to the north, You XiaoMo rarely let his Qiu team out, and it
wasn’t because he didn’t want to, but because they chose to not go out. The aura
inside the space is very thick, so it’s very suitable for them to practice. Besides, even
if they go out, they have nothing to do, might as well just stay inside the space.
But because You XiaoMo gave them some tasks to do, after a few discussions, they
decided to rotate the task. They used ten days as the standard. After ten days,
another person would take over. When You XiaoMo came it, it was PiQiu who was
on duty.
PiQiu looked exactly the same as few months ago, he didn’t have any change at all,
neither his height nor his fat meat. When you look at his fat, you would instantly
know that he got enough nutrition.
PiQiu was watering the magic herb using magic water, when he saw You XiaoMo
walk over, he immediately threw the water away and ran towards him. “Master, did
you finally come to see me?” PiQiu asked happily, with his two big round eyes.
Looking at his expression, You XiaoMo couldn’t tell him the truth, so he said, “Yes, I
come to see you guys.”
When he just finished saying that sentence, there was a ‘pfftt’ sound coming from
the lake direction, followed by a mocking voice, “Either you are just plain stupid, or
you didn’t want to admit it. There’s no way master would especially come here just
to see you. He obviously just about to take out a new magic herb seed, that’s the
reason he came.”
The one who said that was Xiao Hei, his appearance looks so cool, but unfortunately
he talks a lot, and his words were especially poisonous. He really made people’s
teeth become itchy (really hate to the point of wanting to bite the other person) just
by listening to him. You XiaoMo already heard his sarcastic tone so many times, so
he had already gotten used to it, and besides, he knew, even though Xiao Hei has a
sharp tongue, he actually has a gentle heart. Of course his gentle side was only
towards them, to outsiders, his statement was usually only how he would treat them.
(Yuan’s note: Xiao Hei is the epitome of tsundere *cough cough*)
“Master, is what Xiao Hei just said true?” PiQiu looked at You XiaoMo anxiously.
You XiaoMo almost got a cold sweat on his face, so he immediately took out food
from his magic bag. It was a mutton that Ling Xiao preserved before. “PiQiu, eat this
meat.”
PiQiu was already drooling when he smelled the meat’s smell, after that he
immediately grabbed the meat and ran straight into the corner. Xiao Hei who saw
this suddenly said ‘a good for nothing glutton’ coldly.
Although PiQiu was small, but he is one hundred percent a glutton, especially for
meat. Not to mention this mutton’s meat effect, even the ordinary demon beast’s
meat would make him drool with envy. So everytime he saw him act like this, Xiao
Hei would call him names.
PiQiu didn’t care. As long as he had meat, he wouldn’t mind being abused with a
hundred or a thousand sentences.
After he dealt with PiQiu, You XiaoMo took a wooden basin from the Blockhouse,
and scooped out some magic water from the lake. He then put in all the magic herb
seeds that Liu Yue gave him. The seeds were multicolored, just like the multicolored
stones that You XiaoMo had in the fish tank in his previous life.
Talking about stones, he admired himself for his talent. Because he had nothing in
his rented room, he especially when he went to the market to buy some multicolored
stones to pretty up his room. HOwever, since he couldn’t afford fish, he had only
bought stones.
The seeds that Qingcao Court gave weren’t really plump, some of them were even
already dehydrated and shriveled, almost as if they had already been abandoned. If
they continued to be like this, they wouldn’t grow up well, so he had to puff them up
with magic water for one night until the seeds could absorb all the magic water. This
was so that he didn’t have to take special care for them to grow up well.
You XiaoMo had already experimented with it before, he sowed some seeds that
were about to die, and it grew up so badly that he had to use a lot of energy to
correct it. After he finished digging it up, You XiaoMo went to find SheQiu and the
others. These days, they all took human form and sat in meditation positions at the
lakeside to practice. In just a few months, they all had already leveled up one to two
stars. They leveled up much faster compared when they were practicing at the
Paradise Realm. After they got such a benefit, they all refused to go out.
After he saw them, You XiaoMo went to the dipper herb field. At first, he thought that
the dipper stink bugs were still in the middle of their metamorphosis process,
because when he checked the information about dipper stink bugs later, they said
that the third metamorphosis would take a very long time. For some it would take up
to half a year, while some even needed a year. But it seems like his only needed two
months, because they were already playing tag with each other in the magic herb
fields, having a good time.
You XiaoMo examined them and made sure that they didn’t have any problems, and
realized that they didn’t have any difference before and after metamorphosis, the
size and color were still the same as before, and here he thought that there would
be some difference.
After PiQiu finished his meat, he ran to You XiaoMo with his two short legs and
drum-like belly. You XiaoMo immediately gave him a task to sprinkle the seeds
inside the wooden basin to the magic herb field tomorrow. PiQiu patted his own
meaty chest and ensured him that he will certainly complete this task.
Xiao Hei who was at the lakeside, casually threw out a bomb just like usual, “The
blockhead who only knows how to eat, and the idiot who deceives his own family to
count their gold coins.”
PiQiu: “......”
You XiaoMo: “......”
Xiao Hei, you’re too conceited! You don’t feel good if you don’t insult other people
for a day, do you?!
You XiaoMo wiped off the blood he had vomited from Xiao Hei’s words. He coaxed
PiQiu well before he left, promising that next time he will reward him with 2.5 kg of
meat, which clearly shot straight into PiQiu’s heart, making him immediately throw all
XiaoHei words behind his head.
PiQiu, "Master, you can rest assure, I will work super hard."
XiaoHei, "..."
You XiaoMo had wanted to take a bath in the space at first, but Ling Xiao had
forbidden him from doing so, because the Qiu team was inside there. Ling Xiao said
only he can see You XiaoMo’s body, so he took away his right to bathe inside the
space. You XiaoMo had once put on a boycott, but it was suppressed ruthlessly,
even his chrysthanthemum nearly got picked. And since then, You XiaoMo never
dared to take a bath inside the space again, unless it was absolutely essential.
When You XiaoMo got out of the space, he had yet to react and Ling Xiao, who was
standing beside the screen, looked at him with a "tender" face and waved his hand
at You XiaoMo.
You XiaoMo subconsciously walked over, as he just took a step, he suddenly
discovered, there seemed like something was behind the screen, steam?
You XiaoMo widened his 2.0 vision eyes, like an X-ray piercing through the screen,
he could vaguely see a large bathtub that could hold three to four people, filled with
hot water, the steam earlier was coming from the tub.
"..."
You XiaoMo silently took his step back, thinking something, very brutal ah. After
what happened last time, You XiaoMo moved away from the bathtub. He couldn't
help but think about that obscene scene of that night they took a bath together.
The thing called " help him bathe", someone really did all the three options, You
XiaoMo felt he really had lost big time.
Seeing him want to flee, Ling Xiao didn't immediately stop him, he just smiled, a very
tender smile, but it immediately gave You XiaoMo a chill up his spine, his body
suddenly froze.
Ling Xiao gently said, "Xiao Momo, I give you two choices. Either come here and
take a bath, I will be gentle with you tonight, or we can take a bath tomorrow..."
"I choose the latter." You XiaoMo didn't wait for him to finish and chose the second
option without hesitation.
Look at this! It had became his conditioned reflex! But after rethinking again, You
XiaoMo felt that the latter choice seemed even more extreme than the first.
"Are you really sure?" Ling Xiao expression changed, first he looked at You XiaoMo
with weird eyes, then he suddenly exposed a very immoral smile while asking You
XiaoMo again.
You XiaoMo...was uncertain, this expression, why did it look so dangerous ah!
You XiaoMo swallowed his saliva, " That .... what did you say about the second
option? I didn't hear it clearly."
Ling Xiao brightly smiled, wickedly looking at him, " The second choice is, we will do
it tomorrow, but... I won't promise I will hold myself back."
You XiaoMo,"..."
He sweared to god, after this he definitely have to give up on the halfass listening
habit.
In the future, every word Ling Xiao said, he must hear them loud and clear, or else
he will easily fall into the trap.
You XiaoMo took a deep breath, he won't stupidly ask for a third choice, because
using Ling Xiao's IQ to speak, he will definitely come up with a more vulgar and
shameless method. Since You XiaoMo had experienced it two times, if he still
repeated this lowly mistake then he was definitely a dumbass.
But the second option, he certainly won't choose it. Because they had to leave for
the academy on the day after tomorrow, and how did he not forget about Ling Xiao's
stamina.
This man not only was savage in action, but the endurance was also top notch,
every time he could always do it more than twice. In the end only You XiaoMo was
the suffer one, which means he wouldn’t be able to leave the bed on the next day,
so...You XiaoMo only had the first choice to choose.
"Come!" Ling Xiao once again waved at him.
You XiaoMo hesitated a little bit, dawdled came forward while bargained, "Promise
you will be gentle?"
Ling Xiao said, "As long as you obey, I will be gentle."
You XiaoMo, "As long as you treat me gentle, I will obey." Since his head was on the
table anyway, running would still result in death, he might as well have a clean
death. At worst, he might have to stay on the toilet longer.
Ling Xiao didn't say a word, he just stared at You XiaoMo for awhile, before he
seemingly unwilling gave a nod.
You XiaoMo, "..."
What, what with the reluctant expression, don't tell me he really was trying to fool
him?
You XiaoMo was obviously only ten steps away from Ling Xiao, yet he took nearly
five minutes until he just stopped walking, which really tickled someone's patience.
Ling Xiao then came over, held him up and threw him into the tub to let the night
begin, which, he thought, he should have done right from the start!
 Chapter 234 Points
Translated by Yuanyulin
As his snow white skin dyed with a flush color, You XiaoMo found himself on top of a
man’s body while riding him in a daze. Both of his legs made a very promiscuous
scene, the white upper garment was only covering half of his upper body. It was
dimly visible that both of them were joining their bodies together.
A ‘pa pa’ (squelch squelch) sound was heard along with You XiaoMo’s body
movement as he constantly moved up and down, making a certain rhythm. The
man’s big arms were hugging You XiaoMo’s waist tightly and they wouldn't let him
go until half an incense later (hour). With his strong and unyielding arms, even if You
XiaoMo had any strength and tried to fight back, he wouldn’t be able to move at all.
“Nggggghhhh…” a certain person finally couldn’t hold it back anymore and let out a
moan, while growling in a loud voice, “Have you come yet?”
The man made a deep and low laughing sound, straightened up his body and
hugged the youth. His movement was without any hesitation at all, as if telling him
that he still has an abundance of energy to use. “We already agreed that we won’t
stop after only one round, ne.”
You XiaoMo was silenced upon hearing that phrase, as if he got choked up. But
then he quickly became angry. He held the man’s body, opened his mouth and bit
the man’s shoulder, not caring even if he bit the man until he bled.
He was tricked again, Ling Xiao was simply just toying him. His one round was
obviously two rounds according to normal people’s time, because You XiaoMo
himself had already come two times, yet he still has no sign of cumming. If it
continued to be like this, he would be the one who was going to be exhausted to
death.
The man moaned a little and soon after, he sped up the rhythm, almost making the
person on top of him fall down, and the room was filled with soft moans…
The next day You XiaoMo lay down on top of the bed for half the day, he didn’t
come out even after noon.
He actually wanted to stroll around the business district, but he miscalculated. That
beast Ling Xiao didn’t give him any opportunity to do that. They agreed to do it
lightly, but because he bit him, he did it violently over and over again.
Long story short, he lost again!
While he was recuperating for almost a day, You XiaoMo didn’t know that his name
was already spreading out.
Although he could get out of the bed, he already lost his mood to stroll around.
It wasn’t until the morning of their departure, when the sky just started to lighten, that
he decided to go downstairs leisurely.
At first, he thought there wasn’t anything downstairs, but it turned out when he
hadn’t even descended yet, he already heard noises coming out from the hall. One
after another, it seemed like they were discussing something energetically.
When he reached the bottom of the stairs, You XiaoMo spotted Ling Xiao sitting in
the corner. However, the seats were rather one-sided, so it was quiet. You XiaoMo
went and sat in front of Ling Xiao, asking, “Where is Liu Yue?”
Ling Xiao put down his teacup, laughed then said, “It’s still early in the morning, and
you already are talking about another man in front of me?”
You XiaoMo rolled his eyes, he was just asked about Liu Yue, and he accused him
of talking about another man?
With a smile on his face, Ling Xiao looked at You XiaoMo rolling his eyes, and knew
that he was in a fit of anger, so he said, “I told him to assemble at the square first.
You should eat something light first to fill your stomach and we will go there after
that.”
You XiaoMo suddenly threw him a ‘you’re smart!’ look.
Ling Xiao smirked. As expected, this little guy right here, you just need to coax him a
bit, and then he’ll forget all his anger.
After he ate breakfast, You XiaoMo left the room and then went to the plaza
hurriedly with Ling Xiao. Along the way, he heard many people talking about him.
But because nobody knew his appearance, nobody came out to him.
Half an hour later, they finally reached the square. The square wasn’t as swarmed
as it had been two days ago.
As soon as they arrived, Ning Jing-daoshi immediately found them, and shortly
registered them.
Although they got up early, they didn’t come early enough. Lots of students came
much earlier to give a good impression toward the tutors. Of course, that included
those standoffish clans’ disciples. Due to the amount of people, the tutors had begun
to distribute them, and let some of the students go to the academy first.
You XiaoMo and Ling Xiao came at a good time, Ning Jing-daoshi just happened to
be distributing the people. The mentors were fewer than practitioners, so they could
depart earlier. Although Ling Xiao was a martial art student at the academy, since he
was together with You XiaoMo, she made an exception and let them leave together.
Dao Xin Academy is not far from Yan City, it takes only half a day by riding the
gigantic firebird.
During this time, Ning Jing-daoshi took the opportunity to explain to them what and
where they should pay attention to.
You XiaoMo leaned on Ling Xiao’s body, lazing off while listening no Ning Jing-
daoshi’s explanation.
Dao Xin Academy also has a martial arts department and a mage department,
divided by Block One and Block Two, both school blocks have different locations.
Due to the fact that they are in Block Two, Ning Jing-daoshi was explaining Block
Two rules.
First of all, they have to know that students need points at Dao Xin Academy. Since
level four is the minimum standard to join Dao Xin Academy, Block Two doesn’t lack
geniuses. Therefore, if the new students who just enrolled want to survive smoothly
and steadily here, they have to put away their pridefulness and belittling attitudes.
Apart from that, Dao Xin Academy having two school blocks there were also two
wards named Ward A and Ward B. Between them, Ward B had the lower grades.
Most of them were freshmen, and their grades were not very high; while Ward A
students were seniors with higher strength, first rate students. The difference
between both school blocks lie in the treatment towards the students. To get better
treatment, they have to work hard.
There were two ways to climb up from Ward B to Ward A.
The first was to train hard, and students could move immediately to Ward A as soon
as they became a level seven mage.
The second was to participate in Dao Xin Academy’s annual competition, and the
top ten would have the opportunity to move into Ward A.
But thanks to that, there were many mages participating in that competition every
year, and all of them were talented students. That’s why it was difficult to get into the
top ten position. Before that, there was one problem that all new students had to
watch out for, that is, the trading currency at Dao Xin Academy.
Dao Xin Academy didn’t use crystal coins or gold coins, instead, they used a point
system inside the school. Points worked just like crystal coins, it is an essential thing
inside Dao Xin Academy. You couldn’t trade your crystal coins for points, it could
only be acquired through one’s own talent and effort at school. So… the crystal
points that You XiaoMo earned by selling magic pills two days ago became useless.
After he heard this information, You XiaoMo’s head that was leaning on Ling Xiao’s
shoulder suddenly slipped off. If Ling Xiao didn’t catch him, he might have hit the
ground.
This action immediately caught Ning Jing-daoshi’s attention who was speaking, and
looked at him concerned, “You XiaoMo, what’s wrong with you. Do you have any
questions?”
You XiaoMo immediately sat up straight and shook his head, “I’m fine, daoshi.”
Ning Jing-daoshi nodded her head, and began to continue explaining again.
However, this brief interlude caused many people to focus on You XiaoMo and the
geniuses from the four big clans that were sitting on the same gigantic flame bird as
him. Some of them who only heard rumors about him but had never seen him were
stretching their necks to look at him.
You XiaoMo wasn’t in any mood to care about what were they thinking, because he
felt like crying.
He never thought that he wouldn’t be able to use his money when he entered Dao
Xin Academy. It felt as if he had a golden mountain, but later found out that he
couldn’t even use the golden mountain.
You XiaoMo suddenly became low-spirited.
Ling Xiao guessed what was inside his mind, but couldn’t do anything. This method
was essential for Dao Xin Academy. It was fair to all students, and it also motivated
students to work hard in order to get points initiatively, killing two birds with one
stone.
“Ai!” You XiaoMo made a heavy sigh, he found out that the jade drive that he bought
at Xian Ji Lou last time actually had this information. However, the news was in the
farthest part, so he quickly forgot about it, and it just came to his mind now, after
finding out the truth.
In that corner, the matter regarding points was explained in detail.
It was worth to be mentioned, that points was also one condition when one moved
from Ward B to Ward A, and points also were used almost everywhere. So it’s
important for freshmen to start earning points as soon as they entered the school.
Around two hours later, the gigantic fire bird finally arrived at Dao Xin Academy.
Dao Xin Academy was located halfway up the mountain outside of Yan City. It is
said that the entire top of the mountain belongs to Dao Xin Academy. The view from
the air was spectacular, just like a rare, vicious beast that was hibernating.
When the gigantic firebird started to land, Ning Jing-daoshi said happily, with a flush
on her face, “Everyone, listen. Gather up all your belongings, we’re about to enter
the academy.”
After that, there was a rustling sound, and everyone began to pack up the things
they had brought out before. Even so, there were still some trash bags left over from
their snacks.
Ten seconds later, the gigantic fire bird really started to land, just like what Ning
Jing-daoshi had said. You XiaoMo could even feel that his body felt weightless in an
instant. Fortunately, it didn’t last for long, which was followed by the sound of the
other gigantic fire birds that arrived one after another.

 Chapter 235 Black Card

Translated by Rui
Although Block One and Block Two were in the same area, they were in different
locations.
So as soon as they arrived at DaoXin Academy, You XiaoMo had to separate from
Ling Xiao, Ling Xiao had to follow Block One’s teacher and left.
Not long after, the Gigantic Firebird that carried Liu Yue also arrived, because
people saw that they were together, Ling Xiao and Liu Yue left together.
Seeing that Ling Xiao didn’t have any rebellious sentiment, You XiaoMo let out a
sigh of relief.
He was actually really worried that Ling Xiao would persist on going together with
him.
After a while, Ning Jing Daoshi finished counting the number of people and took her
pupils into DaoXin Academy.
DaoXin Academy had their students form a bodyguard troop to patrol every day, one
couldn’t say it’s not strict. After validating each and every inspection doors, they had
spent almost half an hour to walk to the front gates of the academy. After entering
the front gate, there is an extremely long passageway, the passageway slates are all
constructed out of precious crystals, the surface gives off a thin layer of spiritual
energy.
You XiaoMo looked up and couldn’t help but become speechless, this passageway
is at least more than a thousand metres long, its width is also close to a hundred
metres and the entire thing is actually made out of crystals containing spiritual
energy. One can tell DaoXin Academy spends money very extravagantly.
Passing through the crystal passageway, they start to part ways with the Block One
students and turn to the left.
With much curiosity, You XiaoMo follows the crowd and enters the area that
everyone will be living in the future.
This place is almost like it’s a huge sunken region that’s entrapped in the mountain,
very much like an enormous bowl shape. Standing at the end of the passageway,
You XiaoMo can easily see the buildings standing in great numbers inside the ‘bowl’.
He’s clearly standing at a high altitude yet he can’t see the end of the buildings.
Ning Jing DaoShi turns her head around, looks at them and says, “All the new
students pay attention, from today onwards you guys are a member of DaoXin
Academy. This place shall be where you live in the future. Be sure to remember that
the academy has it’s own rules, since you have become a member of the academy,
then you have to follow the academy’s rules. I don’t care whether you have some
kind of prominent identity outside. Everyone is equal here, if you dare to challenge
the academy’s authority or ignore the academy’s rules, then a small consequence
will be punishment, a heavy consequence will be eviction from the academy. If you
understand then come with me!”
No one dares to have an objection, You XiaoMo also silently follows behind
everyone.
He got a glimpse of a bit of DaoXin Academy’s thousand years of history through the
jade drive. In these thousands of years, the academy has produced many strong
people and is also overseen by many strong people, as a result it’s a peak that even
the four big families of Yan City won’t dare to easily lay a finger on.
Young genius ladies like Teng ZiXin whom, although has quite a famous master and
the entire Teng Family to back her up, even she won’t dare to be unbridled inside
DaoXin Academy.
After half an hour, Ning Jing DaoShi takes them to their dormitory.
Because they are new students, so the first stop is the ward B, at this point in time
the place they are at is the dormitory area of the ward B.
You XiaoMo had thought that the dorm conditions wouldn’t be too bad, to his
surprise the situation was very much out of his expectations. It looks like a
dangerous premises from the outside, it’s even four people per room.
If it’s really going to be four people per room, he’ll have to be cautious whenever he
does anything in the future.
You XiaoMo furrows his eyebrows, not knowing if there’s anything else with better
conditions.
Just as he’s thinking along this line of thought, it’s as if Ning Jing DaoShi guessed
everyone’s doubts and starts to explain the residence situation to everyone.
“I believe there are a few people who don’t like the rooms here.” Ning Jing DaoShi
especially looks at Teng ZiXin’s group of people when she says this sentence, as
expected they’re also furrowing their brows, she then continues, “But as you have
seen, the dorm conditions for any new student who has just entered DaoXin
Academy is the same.”
A new student asks, “DaoShi, other than rooms that are four people per room, are
there any single rooms?”
Ning Jing DaoShi’s pair of beautiful eyes scans over each and every person, but
when she sees You XiaoMo, she pauses very subtly and a smile flashes in her eyes
at the same time. Looking at him with his brows tightly knit together, she knows that
he also doesn’t like this kind of residence condition.
“Of course there is, in front of you is the dormitory with the poorest conditions in
ward B. If you want something better, you have to go earn some points, then use
those points you earn and make a purchase. In a moment I will give every one of
you a black card, the black card stores the point you earn. I will explain the specifics
to you later, now we will start to allocate rooms,” says Ning Jing DaoShi.
Although DaoXin Academy’s academic atmosphere is not one of restriction, men
and women still don’t mix together.
This kind of situation will usually generate the problem of a room that doesn’t have
four people, such as Teng ZiXin.
Teng ZiXin is actually a very arrogant women, and it just so happens that there’s not
