The Cultivation Method of Junior Sister is Unscientific

Ye Danxia bit her lip hard, her eyes filled with venom.

Again!

Once more, Yun Jin had stolen the spotlight!

This time, she had an especially strong premonition. If not for Yun Jin, she should have been the one to gain Elder Ming’s favor, the one he would nurture like a disciple.

She could almost envision such a scene in her mind!

But all of it had been ruined.

Elder Ming hadn’t even noticed her, instead valuing Yun Jin.

Ye Danxia truly didn’t understand.

She was a noble Celestial Spirit Root—how could she possibly be inferior to this Yun Jin?

Yun Jin was merely a Five Element Root.

Watching Yun Jin act so obedient and clever, Ye Danxia couldn’t hold back. She stepped forward with a smile, saying, “Little Jin, congratulations on gaining Elder Ming’s favor.”

Yun Jin glanced at her, calmly replying, “Elder Ming always favors diligent disciples a bit more.”

Ye Danxia smiled, “Little Jin, I’m truly happy for you. After all, you’re only a Five Element Root. I was always worried your cultivation, raised by some heavenly treasure, would eventually stagnate. Now it’s fine—with Elder Ming looking after you, perhaps you can advance to Golden Core in a hundred years.”

Everyone’s expressions immediately became subtle.

It was clear to all that both Ye Danxia and Yun Jin excelled at sarcasm.

But each time, it seemed Ye Danxia was the one to start.

And the result…

She always ended up being crushed by Yun Jin.

At this moment, everyone couldn’t help but look forward to the show.

They all waited for Yun Jin to retort.

But Yun Jin only showed a hesitant expression, finally sighing and saying softly, “Danxia, you’re a Celestial Spirit Root. Your future achievements will surely surpass mine. I know you’re a bit unhappy that I entered Foundation Establishment earlier than you. But with my aptitude, I dare not dream of Golden Core. You’ll surpass me soon.”

Everyone: “???”

This humble attitude didn’t seem like Yun Jin at all!

Ye Danxia’s expression shifted slightly, thinking Yun Jin had backed down. She was just starting to feel pleased.

But Elder Ming snorted coldly, looking at Ye Danxia with some ill will. Instead of addressing Ye Danxia, he turned to Zhao Wuji.

“Is this how you teach disciples? Not even understanding basic common sense? In the cultivation world, with so many heavenly treasures and pills, if advancement relied on these, wouldn’t the children of great cultivators steadily become great themselves?”

“In realm advancement, spiritual energy is easiest to raise. The real difficulty lies in soul realm! Without a corresponding soul realm, consuming any amount of heavenly treasures is useless!”

“I’ve examined Yun Jin’s cultivation. Though she’s just entered Foundation Establishment, her power is very stable, not superficial at all. Her soul realm has likely surpassed early Foundation Establishment, perhaps even reaching middle or late stage. Only then could she manipulate spiritual energy so effortlessly.”

“As for this disciple of yours,” Elder Ming spoke bluntly, “Her talent is indeed good, but her temperament is unstable and she’s full of envy. No matter how quickly she cultivates spiritual energy, if her soul realm can’t keep up, what use is it? Zhao Wuji, you’ve chosen wrong again. I’m afraid this little disciple of yours won’t amount to much!”

Elder Ming’s words cut into Ye Danxia’s heart like knives.

Ye Danxia’s face turned pale.

She had just spoken casually, without causing any real harm to Yun Jin. Was it necessary for Elder Ming to treat her this way for Yun Jin’s sake?

Ye Danxia looked at Zhao Wuji somewhat pitifully.

But Zhao Wuji’s expression was also very unpleasant. He dared not argue, only saying slowly, “I will properly discipline my disciple. Elder Ming, shall we open the Archive?”

Elder Ming’s words were aimed at Ye Danxia, but they were also slapping Zhao Wuji in the face!

Zhao Wuji really didn’t want to continue this topic.

He even began to doubt.

With Ye Danxia’s impatience, even with a Celestial Spirit Root, could she truly reach the pinnacle?

Seeing Zhao Wuji ignore her, a hint of panic arose in Ye Danxia’s heart.

What was happening…

Master…

Was Master going to abandon her too?

No!

Impossible!

She was a Celestial Spirit Root, a once-in-a-century genius!

Her future was bright and glorious!

A mere Yun Jin could only enjoy this moment, destined to be left behind in the future.

Master must understand this.

Ye Danxia took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down.

She told herself.

If Elder Ming was blind, so be it. She was destined for the great Dao, to ascend in one go. By then, this Elder Ming would be no more than an ant in her eyes.

Zhao Wuji had already yielded, and Elder Ming snorted, “Very well. I’ve set up restrictions in other areas of the Archive. New disciples can only search for manuals in the Yellow-grade area. The time limit for selecting manuals is one incense stick.”

With that, Elder Ming leisurely lit an incense stick.

The great doors of the Archive slowly opened.

The new disciples dared not delay, rushing in one after another.

Yun Jin didn’t move, still obediently staying by Elder Ming’s side.

Elder Ming glanced at her, “You, girl, are just too honest. Look at earlier—if I hadn’t spoken up for you, you wouldn’t even have known you were being mocked!”

Yun Jin looked a bit aggrieved, “Elder Ming, Danxia is my best friend. She wouldn’t mock me. You must have misunderstood something.”

Elder Ming grew increasingly exasperated, “You silly girl, how can you be so foolish! Remember, stay away from this ‘best friend’ of yours in the future!”

Yun Jin agreed pitifully.

Zhao Wuji: “…”

Lin Ya: “…”

Everyone: “…”

This was too much acting, wasn’t it?

How could Yun Jin ever be at a disadvantage?

It was good enough that she wasn’t causing trouble!

“You don’t mind me speaking of your disciple this way?” Elder Ming glanced at Zhao Wuji again.

What could Zhao Wuji say?

He could only shake his head with a bitter smile.

“In cultivation, temperament is most important. Only steady people like Yun Jin can reach the end. Otherwise, what use is talent, no matter how good?” Elder Ming wasn’t satisfied and continued lecturing Zhao Wuji.

Zhao Wuji could only lower his head and listen.

Whenever Elder Ming’s throat got dry from scolding, Yun Jin would offer a cup of tea at just the right moment, allowing him to moisten his throat and continue.

While the new disciples searched for manuals for an incense stick’s time, Elder Ming lectured Zhao Wuji for an incense stick’s time.

When the time was almost up, Elder Ming waved his hand slightly, and all the Yellow-grade sword technique manuals appeared in his hand.

“You can choose three manuals, right? Here are all the Yellow-grade sword technique manuals in the sect, fifteen in total. Feel free to choose,” Elder Ming said kindly to Yun Jin.

Zhao Wuji’s lips trembled.

He wanted to say this was unreasonable.

But fearing another lecture if he spoke up, he simply pretended not to see.

Inwardly, however, he was furious.

People like Elder Swor, Elder Ming, and Ling Fei held high positions, but they usually didn’t manage affairs. He alone ruled Tianxing Sect!

But since Yun Jin’s arrival, these old fellows seemed to have been won over by her one by one!

If these old fellows truly protected Yun Jin and Celestial Sword Peak, it would be difficult for him to take action!

All these changes! All because of this Yun Jin!

There was only one way to resolve this.

In three months, have Ruan Jun kill her fair and square!

Only then could everything return to normal!

He couldn’t make a move these three months. Let her enjoy herself for three more months!
