However, at the same time, a delicate figure that was hidden deep in Chen Qiang's mind surfaced once again.
It was the appearance of that figure that caused Chen Qiang to immediately shift his gaze away.
Yan Xue, who was beside him, sighed sadly and slowly lowered her eyes.
"Haha! Good!
As the inner sect elder of the Pill Department, I now announce that all 15 disciples have passed the Pill Department's inner sect assessment this year!
In other words, from now on, you are official disciples of the Pill Department of the Southern Lake Dao College and enjoy all the benefits of the inner sect disciples of the Southern Lake Dao College! "
"Oh! That's great!"
Apart from Chen Qiang and Yan Xue, the other 13 new disciples cheered on the high platform almost simultaneously.
After a while, Principal Qi waved her hand and said, "Alright, Elder Sun, immediately arrange for these disciples to enter the inner sect.
Chen Qiang, the Grand Elder has already arranged for your and Yan Xue's residence. Shall we go and take a look? "
With that, Principal Qi and Liu Qingyun led Chen Qiang and Yan Xue away from the high platform.
"Hey, Principal, our Warrior Department's inner sect assessment hasn't started yet. There's still the Weapon Department assessment …"
Elder Liu, who was behind, shouted at Principal Qi's back in dissatisfaction.
However, at this time, how could Principal Qi and the rest have the mood to watch the other two departments' assessments?
Even the inner sect disciples who were watching around the training field did not have the mood to continue watching and left like a swarm of bees.
Looking at the empty training field and the sparse outer sect disciples around, Elder Liu roared with a dark face, "The Warrior Department's inner sect assessment begins now!"
…
In the Southern Lake Dao College's inner sect, all the disciples and elders had their own independent courtyards.
Unlike the scattered outer sect disciples' residences, the inner sect disciples' residences were more abundant in spirit energy and each room had its own independent soundproofing effect.
The disciples of each department would receive basic cultivation resources distributed by the Dao College every month and would be patiently guided by the elders of each department at any time. Some outstanding disciples would even directly become the elders' personal disciples and their status was even higher than ordinary inner sect disciples.
In short, Inner Sect disciples were their own flesh and blood, while Outer Sect disciples were picked up!
Liu Qingyun didn't go back on his words. As expected, he left an independent villa like courtyard for Chen Qiang in advance. The environment was elegant and the spirit qi was dense. Most importantly, it was very far away from the other disciples' residences to avoid being disturbed.
After leading the two of them to their residence, Liu Qingyun probed again, "Chen Qiang, although your talent isn't bad, if you don't have a great teacher to guide you on the path of cultivation, it's very easy for you to go astray.
This old man has cultivated for several decades and can be considered to have made some achievements.
If you have any problems with your cultivation in the future, you can come to the Elder Hall to find me. "
Although Chen Qiang's impression of Liu Qingyun was extremely poor, he could also tell that this old fellow's words at this time were from the bottom of his heart.
"Thank you, Great Elder. If there is a need, this disciple will definitely go and disturb you."
Before leaving, Principal Qi exhorted again, "Chen Qiang, there's still a month before the competition with the Meteor Dao College.
During this period, you have to prepare well and don't be distracted. Regarding alchemy, I will inform Elder Sun Tao so that you can focus on studying martial arts during this month. You can even go to the Warrior's Department to find Elder Liu at any time and ask him to give you occasional pointers. "
Principal Qi and Liu Qingyun placed great importance on the competition between the two academies, but Chen Qiang didn't care at all.
So what if Li Qing was a warlord, let alone a high-level warrior?
Even if Chen Qiang stood still, Li Qing would not be able to hurt him at all!
Therefore, after Principal Qi and Liu Qingyun left, Chen Qiang threw this matter to the back of his mind.
In the room, Chen Qiang asked with concern, "Yan Xue, how's your cultivation in the battle domain realm?"
Yan Xue, who was sitting at the side, held Little Meng in her arms. She lowered her head and stroked the little girl's smooth fur without saying a word.
Chen Qiang turned his head in confusion and saw that Yan Xue was in low spirits, as if she had suffered a blow.
"Yan Xue, are you alright?"
Chen Qiang walked over and asked softly.
Logically speaking, Yan Xue's performance in the inner sect assessment this time was already quite good.
Unfortunately, Chen Qiang's brilliance completely overshadowed Yan Xue's results, so much so that Elder Sun Tao and Principal Qi turned a blind eye to Yan Xue. She was even worse than Mei Xin. Fortunately, Elder Sun Tao even praised Mei Xin.
Could it be that this was the reason that made Yan Xue unhappy?
Thinking of this, Chen Qiang was about to comfort her, but Yan Xue had already raised her head. Her face was actually covered in tears.
In Chen Qiang's eyes, Yan Xue had always been a strong girl. When had he ever seen her like this?
"Yan Xue, you … what exactly happened?"
It would have been better if he didn't ask this question. Just as Chen Qiang asked this question, he realized that Yan Xue's tears flowed out even more violently!
Looking at the extremely aggrieved Yan Xue's complicated expression, Chen Qiang was absent-minded for a moment.
This expression, seemed like deja vu …
That's right!
At this moment, another lonely figure suddenly appeared in Chen Qiang's mind!
That was at the Barbarian Mountain settlement. Light Dust came from afar and took the initiative to marry Chen Qiang.
However, because of the incident with Wei Xuande, an irreparable crack appeared between Chen Qiang and Light Dust.
At that time, the wedding room had already been arranged, but Chen Qiang was determined to take revenge for his father. At that time, Light Dust's gaze was mixed with many things at the same time.
It was also from that moment onwards that the relationship between him and Light Dust started to drift apart.
It wasn't until the trip to the Dongyue Shogunate, when Chen Qiang turned into Chen Tianwei and completely crippled Wei Xuande, that Light Dust made up her mind and drew a clear line between them.
However, Chen Qiang clearly knew that with his relationship with Light Dust, if it wasn't for the incident with Wei Xuande, they would have already become a family.
Until now, Chen Qiang's heart had never truly forgotten Light Dust.
However, after such a long time, he didn't know if the grudge in Light Dust's heart was still there?
And the expression that Yan Xue in front of him revealed at this moment also touched Chen Qiang's heart.
Ever since he was still very weak, Yan Xue had always been protecting him. She had even almost lost her life trying to save him.
Before Chen Tianwei's death, it could be seen that Yan Xue was following orders.
But what happened after that?
Yan Xue could totally live the life she wanted.
However, Yan Xue used the reason of Chen Tianwei's dying wish and still followed him by his side.
Chen Qiang wasn't a heartless person. After Chen Tianwei's death, Yan Xue's change became more and more obvious.
And all these changes, wasn't it because of him?
With such a great beauty by his side at all times, how could Chen Qiang not feel anything?
