Chapter 543: Sect Examination (5)

Everyone was rather excited when they saw Sima You Yue appear. Especially since she immediately paralysed the yellow-sand beasts that had so drained them, the moment she appeared. This let them catch their breath. It went without saying that she appeared in the nick of time!

Sima You Yue got Halcyon to continue hovering in the sky, and after calculating the distance from where she was to where they were, she took out a pile of array stones and tossed them out in certain directions. For the last remaining stone, she got halcyon to fly downwards before inserting some spirit energy into it and throwing it towards the ground.

They saw that the array was beginning to activate, and Sima You Le and the others, who were still at the edge of the array, hurriedly ran away. If they were sent away together, who knew where they would end up.

“Halcyon.” Sima You waited for the array to activate before shouting. Halcyon immediately released the barrier, and those yellow-sand beasts had yet to react before they were all sent far away by the teleportation array.

“You Yue is still the best!” Wei Zi Qi sat down when he saw that the yellow-sand beasts were no longer there.

“That’s right. This has hindered us for such a long time. Even if we rode on flying spirit beasts, we couldn’t shake them.” Fatty Qu said, “You Yue, how did you know we were here?”

“I looked at our jade stone!” Sima You Yue said curiously, “Didn’t you head towards my direction as well? Don’t tell me you didn’t know?”

Everyone looked at Sima You Lin’s direction, and he shrugged, saying, “I didn’t have the energy to fight back when getting chased by the yellow-sand beasts. How could I have had the time to look at the jade stone?”

Sima You Yue was speechless. So they had actually just coincidentally managed to escape in her direction. They didn’t even know she was close by.

It was a good thing that they had chosen the right direction. If they had escaped in the opposite direction, she would take a long time to look for them!

“Oh right, how come you’re all together? Did you enter this place together?”

“No we didn’t.” Sima You Ran shook his head, saying, “We were separated at first, but we weren’t too far from each other. We slowly gathered together later on. We were even saying earlier that you were the only one missing. However, we knew you could handle it, so we weren’t too worried.”

If it was someone else on their own, others might have gone to look for that person. However, since it was her, they didn’t even go looking for her.

Sima You Yue looked grumpily at her own brother before saying just one thing, “You should rest and recover first.”

She watched as everyone took out some pills from their interspatial rings and knew they had realised the peculiarity of this mirage. She also stood guard for them.

As everyone was resting, she saw the boundless desert and wondered when this test would end.

Bei Gong Tang was the first to recover as she saw Sima You Yue sitting on a sand dune. She walked over, asking, “What have you gone through?”

Sima You Yue told her about the few times she met those spirit beasts, and Bei Gong Tang was rather shocked, ” You encountered spirit beasts so early on?”

“You guys didn’t?”

“We did as well, but that was only the past two days. We didn’t meet any before that.” Bei Gong Tang said, “Also, we didn’t encounter any spirit beasts before we grouped together.”

“Eh, am I the only one who did?” Sima You Yue touched her nose.

“That’s a possibility.”

Sima You Yue looked at the sky helplessly, “Could it be that my personality is too bad? Or the ones who control this place just don’t like me and threw a few spirit beasts to deal with me?”

The tutors in the house all looked down a little with embarrassment, nobody saying anything. This was the vice-president’s orders. It had nothing to do with them, she shouldn’t not choose to join their sect because she blamed them!

Sima You Yue had no idea what the tutors were thinking of her, and had no idea that someone had specially arranged for those spirit beasts. She was still wondering when this first test would end.

“You Yue, I feel… that there’s something off about those spirit beasts.” Bei Gong Tang said.

“How so?”

“It just seems as if they popped out suddenly, as if they were initially locked in a cage, but suddenly were released and all ran out.” Bei Gong Tang just said whatever she felt.

“This is the sect’s first test. Although we don’t know where this place is, this should be within the sector’s control. I doubt that anything could happen that is not within their control.” Sima You Yue said, “What you say is a possibility. However, we have no way to verify this.”

“You’re right.” Bei Gong Tang nodded, and no longer pondered over her question.

Everyone started to wake up after that, healing fully one by one. They had also recovered their spirit energy, and were bursting with life once again.

“Big Bro, where are we going now?” Little Roar walked beside Sima You Yue and asked.

Sima You Yue looked at everyone, saying, “This desert is boundless. There’s no difference no matter where we go.”

“Big Bro You Lin told us that earlier too. He said that the test this time was to test how long we could survive here. That’s why it’s the same no matter where we go. This is why we haven’t messed around in the desert like other ppl have.”

Sima You Yue knew that, based on how intelligent Sima You Lin and her Third Bro were, they should have been able to guess the content of the test. Since everyone felt the same way, there was a higher possibility that that was it.

“Then, let us wait.” Sima You Yue said, “The last time I killed those spirit snakes, they tasted pretty good. Let’s cook and eat them. The spirit snake meat is pretty good for your spirit energy as well.”

“Okay, okay!”

Sima You Yue took out a few dead spirit snakes and with the preservative function of her interspatial ring, the spirit snake was as if it had just died not too long ago. It was still rather fresh and tender!

She left the bodies of the spirit snakes for Fatty Qu and the others to manage, then went to wash up before cooking.

Once they knew that Sima You Yue had encountered spirit beasts even before, everyone laughed and teased her for having a bad personality. Otherwise, why would she be the only one to encounter the spirit beasts when nobody else had.

After being teased so much, even Sima You Yue herself wondered what she had done recently to gain such a bad reputation?

Compared to the jovial atmosphere they had while eating, the other participants of the test were rather unlucky. Without spirit beasts that could control space, they were totally unable to rid themselves of those yellow-sand beasts. They had no choice but to keep fleeing for their lives. In the end, they were finally taken out of there when they had completely exhausted all their energy, losing the right to continue in the test.

Others were more lucky. They did not encounter the yellow spirit beasts, but because they could not grasp the essence of the mirage, they did not eat or drink these few days. In this terrible and taxing environment, they were spent as well and couldn’t take it anymore, and were finally rescued from this place.

There was another group who did not encounter the yellow-sand beasts, but had encountered others instead. Although they managed to kill the spirit beasts in the end, they had suffered grievous injuries. At least they managed to press on, and did not have to be taken out.

Who knew how much time had passed, but Sima You Yue and the others had yet to finish eating the snake meat before they heard a low cry coming towards them.

“Yellow-sand beasts!” Sima You Ran and the other’s had a quick change inexpression. They were all too familiar with their voices after being chased for so many days, “Someone is definitely being chased by those yellow-sand beasts and is running over to our direction!”
