Golden Invitations Are Now Useless

Su Yuehan and Li Chengfeng brought their horses to a guesthouse to be parked at their stables Due to Li Chengfeng's performance, no one dared offer him exorbitant prices

The streets at the entrance of the sect were as busy as a s all sorts of daily necessities, food and drinks as well asand Yuehan were almost overwhelmed by the variety offered here

After strolling the shops, they followed the steps up the htly furrowed as if she was thinking hard She couldn't help but ask, “Young Master…”

Anticipating her question, he replied, “Are you still trying to figure out how I spat out so much blood?”

“You're not actually injured, are you? That would be bad While you have the golden invitation, you still need to take an examination at the ceremony”

He smiled “Why would I injureat her

Su Yuehan caught the object flying at her only to realise she was carrying a pouch of blood It was sealed with stitches and still had blood sloshi+ng inside

She gasped, “You carry this around with you?”

“I started to roa if I did not have a few tricks up my sleeve?”

She pursed her lips “You speak as if you're one of those swindlers and scammers”

He grinned “Am I not?”

“But I think you're quite well-read, you're very different frosters”

“If you want to roam the streets, you must study at least a little or other people will look down on you if they think you're uncultured But if you don't have a few dirty tricks on you, you'd get bullied very often”

She huffed “More like if you don't have a few tricks on you, you won't be able to cheat their ht?”

Chengfeng did not get upset and instead laughed

Both of them chatted happily up the mountain After about five hundred st the dense forest There was a vast platform with four pillars at each corner Each pillar had a stone-carved object at the top, which was the four ites he had seen at the foot of the mountain: a sword, a cauldron, a hairpin and a scroll

Li Chengfeng and Su Yuehan looked at each other with anticipation

When he reached the platfore, about forty to fifty metres tall His neck hurt just to look up at the top

The platform was filled with people He estiiven how close they stood from each other

There was a stone stage at the centre with two levels, each level about threerobes He had three blue stripes on his sleeve and a beard that reached his chest He stood with his eyes slightly closed, his cheekbones tall on his sunken face, laugh lines as deep as ravines extending to the corner of his al expression

The next level of the stage stood two youngfemale cultivator The leftmost man was handsome but looked impatient He could not help but roll his eyes as he surveyed the crowd, his sleeve had three green stripes; the ht looked nonchalant He looked around lazily as he yawned, his sleeve had two green stripes

In the middle stood the only felare filled with arrogance and contereen stripes on her sleeve, this was the cultivator Ah Xiu from before ith her Grand Senior Sister
