Living on the streets?
"So, Brother Ning, why don't you give up?" Duan Yingjun advised.
"I still want to give it a try."
Ning Qi smiled.
"How about this, follow me during the selection. I'll take care of you if I can."
Duan Yingjun patted his chest and said.
"That's great. Thank you, Brother Duan."
Ning Qi was pleasantly surprised.
Seeing this, Duan Yingjun laughed, "It's alright, it's a piece of cake."
The registration for the Outer Sect Disciple Selection Assembly went very smoothly. They only registered their name, age, cultivation, and origin. They didn't ask anything else.
"Brother Ning, do you have a place to stay?"
After registering, Duan Yingjun asked Ning Qi.
Ning Qi said, "I just arrived at Cloud Rising City and haven't found a place yet."
"How about this, there are two rooms in my rented courtyard. If you don't mind, you can stay at my place. When the selection begins, you won't be separated."
Duan Yingjun invited enthusiastically.
"If that's the case, I'll have to trouble Brother Duan."
Ning Qi smiled and nodded.
On the way back, Duan Yingjun kept talking and telling Ning Qi everything about Cloud Rising Sect. Ning Qi just listened quietly and nodded from time to time. Then, he expressed his opinion. Duan Yingjun followed Ning Qi's words and talked non-stop.
After a short period of interaction, Ning Qi realized that Duan Yingjun was definitely a chatterbox.
"Oh right, Brother Duan, are you the only one from the Divine Dragon Marquis's Mansion to participate in the selection?"
Ning Qi asked.
"I'm not the only one. There are more than ten people who can't survive in the Marquis's Mansion."
Duan Yingjun smiled bitterly.
"Oh."
Ning Qi didn't ask why he wasn't with the ten people. They probably didn't have a good relationship. It was better not to rub salt on their wounds.
After walking for a short while, Duan Yingjun brought Ning Qi to the entrance of a small courtyard. However, the door was open and there were people talking inside.
"Ten Lower Spiritual Crystals a day? That's a little expensive! "
"Young Master, the rooms here are all full recently. If you don't want to stay here, you can go to other places. You won't be able to find such a cheap place anymore."
"Brother, ten crystals it is. We're only staying here for a few days anyway. Once we become outer sect disciples of the Cloud Rising Sect, we won't care about these Spirit Crystals."
"Hmm, that's true. Alright, we'll rent it for three days."
"Alright!"
When Duan Yingjun heard these words, his expression became extremely angry. He angrily walked in. Ning Qi frowned slightly and hesitated for a moment before following Duan Yingjun into the courtyard.
In the courtyard, there were two young men and an old man in his fifties or sixties who looked like a merchant.
"Old man, it's not nice of you to do this! I was the one who rented this courtyard! "
Duan Yingjun said angrily to the old man.
"Who are you? This yard is ours now. We've given you all our Spirit Crystals!"
Among the two young men, the younger one looked at Duan Yingjun with disdain.
The old man quickly stopped him, then looked at Duan Yingjun with a smile and said, "Young Master Duan, you and this old man only had a verbal agreement before. In reality, you haven't given me your Spirit Crystals yet. These two young masters offered a higher price than you, so this old man rented the courtyard to them. Young Master Duan, please take a look at other places!"
Duan Yingjun's face turned red with anger, "Right now, every place is full. Where do you expect me to find a house in such a short time? You're not being nice! Isn't it just Spirit Crystals? I said I'll give it to you later today. Don't tell me that the people of the Divine Dragon Marquis' Mansion will go back on their word? "
"Oh, so you're from the Divine Dragon Marquis' Mansion. No wonder you're so arrogant. Our Heaven Sword Marquis' Mansion is not afraid of you."
The younger young man's lips curled into a mocking smile. After hearing Duan Yingjun's background, he showed no fear at all.
The old man smiled faintly, "Now that the deal is done, young master Duan, please go back."
After speaking, he smiled at the two young men, "Young masters, please stay here peacefully. This old man will take his leave first."
"What! Why aren't you two scramming? Do you want us to make a move? "
After the old man left, the two young men looked coldly at Duan Yingjun and Ning Qi. The aura of a three star Dou Wang slowly spread out from their bodies.
Duan Yingjun's face was ashen. He wanted to quarrel with the two again, but Ning Qi pulled his arm and smiled, "Brother Duan, since they want to stay here, let them stay. We'll look for other places. In such a big city like Cloud Rising City, are we afraid that we won't be able to find a place to stay?"
"Hahaha, I'm afraid you really won't be able to find it. But it's fine. We'll hide in the corner for a few nights and it'll be over. From the looks of it, you're also here to participate in the outer disciple selection. Don't let us meet you in the vast forest. Otherwise, you'll be in for a treat."
The other party continued to mock them. However, Duan Yingjun had already been pulled out of the courtyard by Ning Qi.
Along the way, the expression on his face was still indignant.
"Brother Ning, I've made a fool of myself."
After a while, he smiled bitterly at Ning Qi in embarrassment.
"No problem."
Ning Qi smiled and waved his hand.
At this time, they happened to pass by an incomparably grand building. The building was at least a thousand feet tall. There were two guards standing at the entrance, their bodies emitting the aura of a Dou Huang. On the door plaque were the words' Immortal Pavilion '.
"Brother Duan, can't we just stay here? It looks like there are still empty rooms. "
Ning Qi glanced into the Immortal Pavilion. There weren't as many people as he had imagined.
Seeing this, Duan Yingjun hurriedly said in a low voice, "Brother Ning, let's forget about it. One night here costs 200 Low Grade Spirit Crystals!"
As he spoke, he was about to pull Ning Qi away. In the end, when he turned around, he saw a man and two women blocking their way.
"Isn't this Duan Yingjun? Are you here to stay? The price of the Immortal Pavilion isn't cheap. Did your mother, who was born as a servant, save enough Spirit Crystals for you? "
Among the three of them, the leader had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. He was extremely handsome. Ning Qi glanced at his attributes and discovered that he was also a disciple of the Divine Dragon Marquis's Mansion. He was a four star Dou Wang, Duan Tianying.
When he mocked Duan Yingjun, the expressions of the two girls behind him were somewhat different.
One of them revealed a look of sympathy.
The other looked at Duan Yingjun with schadenfreude. After glancing at his plump body, she revealed a look of disgust.
Duan Yingjun glanced at the girl who revealed a look of sympathy. A look of adoration flashed across his eyes, and he laughed awkwardly: "Tianying, my friend and I are just passing by. You guys want to stay in the inn, right? Then we won't disturb you any further. Let's go back to the small courtyard that we just rented. We'll meet again at the selection in a few days. "
