As Mu Xinya spoke, she pulled Zhou Yang along as she rushed over. When the two of them arrived, the Sword Pool was already filled with people. However, when the crowd saw Zhou Yang, they actually took the initiative to part a path.
"You are famous now," Mu Xinya smiled.
"Famous person?" Zhou Yang asked curiously.
"That's right, your net worth was announced this morning. You're now ranked at 6,750,000, and you're ranked ninth among the newly promoted disciples."
Zhou Yang smiled and couldn't help but sigh inwardly. This world was indeed one where the strong were respected. When his net worth wasn't high, everyone looked down on him. Now that his net worth was high, everyone took the initiative to make way for him.
"No … no …"
At this moment, a person who was wrapped in light by the side of the Sword Pool suddenly let out a long howl towards the sky. Following that, he actually knelt on the ground. His eyes were filled with horror, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying.
"Another failure. This is the eighth one."
Sighs could be heard in the crowd.
"That's normal. This is Elder Yan's illusion array. How could an ordinary person pass the test?"
"The illusion array can trigger images that you don't want to see the most. I don't want to try it. I'll definitely collapse if I can't take it."
"What you see isn't the scariest thing. What's more terrifying is that you'll believe it to be real and end up falling into it. If your willpower isn't strong enough, it might cause serious consequences for your future cultivation."
The crowd discussed fervently. At this moment, a woman in white robes walked forward. "How disappointing. Scram!"
With a cold shout, the light disappeared. The disciple who was kneeling on the ground suddenly woke up. "This … so it was fake. How did I fall into it? Sigh …"
The disciple walked back to the group in frustration.

"Who is this?" Zhou Yang looked at the woman and asked.
"She is also a deacon elder of the Dragon Gate Gang, and her surname is Yan. After Ximen was demoted, she came out of seclusion and replaced him. Elder Yan is famous for her bad temper, and this time, she was awakened midway and replaced Ximen, which made her even more unhappy."
Zhou Yang nodded with a smile and continued to watch.
"Allow me!"
At this moment, another person walked out. Zhou Yang was sure that he had never seen this person before.
"So it's the new disciple ranked eighth, Wei Ziyuan. I hope you won't disappoint me." Elder Yan's expression became slightly better. He waved his hand and the mystical light appeared again.
Wei Ziyuan walked into the formation, and not long after, the light in his eyes changed. There was anger, desire, and even lust …
"Sure enough, he's not in the top ten. It's already been eight minutes, but he's still fine. Two more minutes and he'll succeed."
"Looks like the Water Spirit Sword will belong to Wei Ziyuan this time."
"I heard that he wants to give the Water Spirit Sword to Mirror Lake Palace's Junior Sister Yirong as a gift at the Hundred Flower Gathering."
"It's going to be the Hundred Flower Gathering soon. Now that all the big shots have come out of seclusion, we can only watch the show."
The crowd discussed animatedly, and soon, nine minutes had passed. Just when everyone thought that Wei Zi Yuan was about to succeed, he suddenly took off his clothes.
"Junior Sister Yi Rong, from now on, you're mine …"
The sudden unrestrained laughter caused everyone to burst out in laughter. The female disciples were even more disdainful as they blushed.
"Also, Elder Yan, don't be in such a hurry. I'll come and pamper you later. Otherwise, we'll …"
Boom!
Wei Zi Yuan had only just taken off his clothes when Elder Yan slapped him across the face.
Wei Zi Yuan, who was sent flying, looked at his upper body and his forehead was immediately covered in cold sweat. "I … I just fell into an illusion. I fell into an illusion."
"Your head is filled with filth. What a disgrace." Elder Yan's face was filled with rage. This kid actually wanted to do something to her in the illusion. A slap was not enough.
"That's right. To think that someone like him could be in the top ten of the new disciples. It's a disgrace to be in the same group as him." A disdainful voice rang out from the crowd.
Everyone could not help but feel shocked. Although they also felt disdain, they could only do so in their hearts. They would not dare to say it out loud. Those who dared to say it out loud would definitely be stronger than Wei Zi Yuan.
"It's him. He Buwei, ranked sixth among the mental disciples. He has also come out of seclusion."
"He Buwei's net worth is the same as Zhang Kuo's, 6.8 million. However, after coming out of seclusion, he must have become even stronger."
"I heard that He Buwei and Wei Zi Yuan are from the same county. They used to be rivals. It seems that is indeed the case."
"He Buwei is a disciple of the Celestial Sword Faction. Don't talk so much. Don't bring trouble upon yourself."
As the crowd was discussing the matter, they saw He Buwei walk out from the crowd. He moved before Wei Zi Yuan and took a bite, causing Wei Zi Yuan's face to turn red.
"Wei Zi Yuan, if I were you, I would just scram out of the sect. What a disgrace!"
"You …" Although Wei Zi Yuan was infuriated, he could only swallow his anger. Who asked him to embarrass himself?
"You are going too far!"
Suddenly, an indifferent voice rang out from behind Wei Zi Yuan. It was none other than Zhou Yang.
"Who are you?" He Buwei asked with a frown.
"You are Liu Xing." Wei Zi Yuan was somewhat surprised. He did not expect someone to step forward to speak up for him.
He Buwei sneered and said, "So, you are that Liu Xing. A pity, I was not present at the Judgement Stand. Otherwise, I would not be as good-tempered as Senior Brother Shi."
"You should be glad you were not there."
Zhou Yang glanced at He Buwei before walking over to Wei Zi Yuan's side. Smiling, he said, "It is only human nature. It is not a big deal. Don't mind it."
"Many thanks." Wei Zi Yuan cupped his hands, his eyes filled with gratitude.
"Human nature … haha … it seems that you, Liu Xing, are also a lecherous person." He Buwei laughed wildly.
Zhou Yang glanced at He Buwei and said, "So you are not a lecherous person. Then let me ask you, will you participate in the Hundred Flower Gathering?"
"Of course!" He Buwei said proudly.
"Since you are not a lecherous person, why would you participate in the Hundred Flower Gathering? Could it be that you are there to find a man?"
As soon as he said this, the crowd burst into laughter.
"Hmph, brat, I am different from you. I am there to find a cultivation companion." He Buwei said in a low voice.
"Although Brother Wei did not perform well in the array, we all know that it was caused by the illusion. Let me ask you, who here can guarantee that they will not be affected by the illusion? Everyone has desires. The strength of the illusion lies in the fact that it can release the desires in one's heart. Even peerless experts cannot say that they can control their desires, let alone us … "
Zhou Yang's words caused everyone to quiet down.
"So, you think that it is natural for you to be affected by the illusion?"
This time, it was Elder Yan who spoke.
"Not being affected can only mean that your will is strong. Being affected is normal. If everyone could not be affected, then the Elder's test would be meaningless." Zhou Yang laughed.
"You are indeed eloquent. You were the one who took Xi Men away, right?" Elder Yan's eyes turned cold.
"If Elder Yan thinks that I have done wrong, you can go to the Sword Holding Elder to clear Xi Men's name."
