For the rest of the time, Gu Qing Shan meticulously trained his swordsmanship, all the way until the sun came up.
White goose came flying in from somewhere.
"Go and pack up, come eat breakfast after you're done, then you can go on your way" white goose said.
"Got it"
As Gu Qing Shan put the Earth Sword away, he noticed that he was soaked in sweat.
He went to take a shower, then returned to Orchid Hall.
On top of the cushion, there were all sorts of cultivation resources, with a stack of yellow talismans placed on top of them.
As Gu Qing Shan picked it up, he was surprised.
This is a communication talisman, after imprinting my inner sight into it, other people will be able to use it to contact me.
Looking further down, one item after another, there were elixirs, common array discs, dry rations, spirit stones, and spare clothes. They were all of the best quality.
Next to the cultivation resources, there was also a small pile of snow-white jade tags.
A talisman was placed on top of the jade tags.
Gu Qing Shan picked up the talisman and infused it with spirit energy.
Hundred Flowers Fairy's voice came: "These are all Elemental Secret Arts, you're a sword cultivator, so these aren't worth learning, but when you leave, you'll need to make friends with others, so take these Secret Arts as a gift"
Elemental Secret Arts are a level higher than Elemental spells, they're much more powerful than Elemental spells.
Secret Arts are powerful, but they cost about the same amount of spirit energy, so compared to Elemental spells, they're much more valuable.
In the auction house, Secret Arts are always priceless, they're even more valuable than Sword Styles.
Because Sword Styles are basically useless if you don't have talent in swordsmanship.
But Elemental spells are different, as long as you have the corresponding spirit root, you can slowly learn and comprehend them, eventually.
Every single Elemental Secret Art can be passed down as a legacy in the sect.
Yet Hundred Flowers Fairy gave Gu Qing Shan a bunch of them, telling him to take them as a gift.
This is the foundation of a Saint, this is the power of Bai Hua Sect.
As Gu Qing Shan put the pile of Secret Art jade tags into his Inventory Bag, he felt a bit warm inside.
He quickly returned to Hundred Flower Hall.
Qin Xiaolou had already prepared a sumptuous breakfast. He was pulling Xiu Xiu, who looked nervous, and carefully instructing her.
"If you meet any strange cultivators, just ignore them. No matter where you go, you have to hold your Third Senior Brother's hand tightly," he rambled on.
"Yes." Xiu Xiu nodded vigorously.
"Alright, let's eat," Hundred Flowers Fairy said from the main seat.
Everyone sat down and enjoyed a sumptuous breakfast.
Breakfast was quickly finished.
Hundred Flowers Fairy said: "For this semester examination, Qing Shan and Xiu Xiu will go together, you two have to listen carefully to what I'm about to say"
Gu Qing Shan and Xiu Xiu immediately pricked up their ears.
The Hundred Flowers Fairy said, "Go and come back safely. You just need to broaden your horizons. Don't worry about anything else."
Gu Qing Shan and Xiu Xiu were both surprised.
Xiu Xiu's tense heart finally loosened.
Qin Xiaolou suddenly shouted: "Shifu, this isn't the same as what you told me that year"
Hundred Flowers Fairy asked: "How is it different?"
"You told me that during the semester examination, if I dared to embarrass you, you would throw me into the Hundred Flower Pond and make me soak for 3 days and 3 nights"
"Hmph, it's your fault for not taking your cultivation seriously and always being sloppy"
"Then they — — -"
"Qing Shan and Xiu Xiu are my disciples, there's no need for them to compare themselves to others, it's fine as long as they come and go safely" Hundred Flowers Fairy casually said.
"Aren't I — — -"
"You're an evil disciple"
"I — — -"
"Beat Qing Shan if you can"
Qin Xiaolou was speechless. After a while, he begrudgingly said: "Shifu, you're trying to sow discord between us brothers"
He suddenly turned around and told Gu Qing Shan: "Junior brother, I heard that this year's semester examination is especially grand, all the sects will be there, you have to keep an eye on Xiu Xiu"
Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised: "Could it be that there are still people who have ideas about Xiu Xiu?"
"That's not it" Qin Xiaolou organized his words: "Among all the sects in the world, we're a famous sect, but we've only been around for a short time, we don't have many people, we're like a tree in a forest, you know, there are bound to be people who aren't convinced"
He seriously reminded her: "Especially the other sects under the other two Saints, as well as those 10,000 years old sects"
White goose suddenly scoffed: "During the last semester examination, you were beaten up by Ning Yuechan to the point of begging for mercy, but you're still alive and kicking right now"
Qin Xiaolou blushed a bit, saying: "That's because I don't care about women"
Since Gu Qing Shan was reborn, he's very clear about the dirty dealings between the sects, so he solemnly said: "I'll definitely protect Xiu Xiu, don't worry"
Seeing his attitude, white goose and Qin Xiaolou both nodded in satisfaction.
Hundred Flowers Fairy also smiled, saying: "Alright, you can go now"
Xiu Xiu looked at Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan smiled back at her and said: "Don't worry"
"Hm" Xiu Xiu nodded.
Prestige Mountain isn't just a mountain.
Prestige Mountain is a town on the Void Chaotic Sea.
This town was built on top of a steep mountain next to the sea, so named after the mountain, it's called Prestige Mountain Town.
Unlike other human villages and towns, this one was inhabited by cultivators from the Human Alliance who were on duty.
Whenever the annual semester examination begins, they're responsible for receiving, managing, and settling people.
This isn't a small matter.
Those hot-tempered great cultivators, as well as those arrogant big sects, if they don't get a good place to settle them, they'll definitely cause a lot of trouble.
Only when everything is properly arranged can the semester examination be successfully completed.
On this day, Prestige Mountain was getting more and more lively.
Around the large-sized warp formations, groups of enforcers stood guard.
This year was especially busy, so the lights on the 5 large-sized warp formations didn't go out even once.
The cultivators emerged from the teleportation formation in groups, then under the guidance of the enforcer cultivators, they walked out of the teleportation formation and returned to their respective residences.
A few big sects had so many people that they couldn't even teleport them all at once, so they had to split up a few times to gather enough people to head towards the town.
Every sect was responsible for finding seeds of cultivation within a certain area.
Because of that, not all of the people that were teleported here were cultivators, many of them were talents picked out by the sects.
The enforcers were so busy that their feet didn't even touch the ground, silently praying that this day would end soon.
A light flashed. Two figures appeared from the large-sized warp formation.
A 7-8 year old girl was tightly holding the hand of a young man next to her, nervously looking around.
Seeing this, one of the enforcers knew that they were from a small sect, so he was about to yell at them to tell them to get down.
But the manager patted him and pushed him behind himself, then smiled and greeted them.
"Excuse me, can I take a look at your jade badge?" he asked.
Gu Qing Shan took it out.
Scanning with his inner sight, the manager's attitude became even more respectful.
He smiled, bowed, and gestured with his hand.
"Yes, thank you" Gu Qing Shan nodded.
Under the steward's guidance, he led Xiuxiu towards Prestige Mountain Town.
"Strange, what's wrong with the manager today?" the cultivator from before was a bit confused.
The other cultivator on duty had already noticed, so he asked.
"Think about it, among the countless sects in the world, which one has the fewest disciples?"
As the cultivator thought about it, he suddenly slapped himself in the face in regret.
