My Unpopular Neighbor Girl Has Hidden Identities
Chapter 536: 535, Tianyi GateChapter 536: 535, Tianyi Gate
Regaining her composure, Xu Mingyue caught up with Song Yan Ning.
As Song Yan Ning had just stepped into the yellow area, the surroundings changed. She knew at once that an array had been set up in the yellow area. However, for her, such a low-level array was overly simplistic; she could easily exit it even with her eyes closed.
Using her Divine Sense to scan Xu Mingyue, she noticed Xu Mingyue frowning and looking around, which made it obvious that her array skills were extremely poor. With such skills, it would be difficult for her not to be eliminated.
Upon entering the array, Xu Mingyue knew she would definitely be disqualified, as although the array was only a Level 3, it was already beyond her capabilities.
At this moment, Song Yan Ning’s voice rang in her ear, “Take three steps to the left, then one step to the right, and finally, two steps backward…”
Xu Mingyue was stunned. The array was monitored by Divine Sense. How could Song Yan Ning dare to transmit a message to her? Wasn’t she afraid of being discovered and disqualified from the competition?
“If you don’t want to be disqualified, follow the steps I just told you,” Song Yan Ning said, somewhat speechlessly seeing Xu Mingyue in a daze.
Snapping out of it, Xu Mingyue glanced around and followed Song Yan Ning’s instructions to move to the left. Song Yan Ning was helping her, and she could not let her get into trouble.
Soon enough, Xu Mingyue walked out of the array and looked around in disbelief. Had she really made it out?
Song Yan Ning walked over to Xu Mingyue, “Let’s go sit over there.”
“Oh!” Xu Mingyue glanced at the elder nearby and noticing his expression unchanged, she knew he hadn’t detected Song Yan Ning helping her.
“How did you?” Xu Mingyue wanted to ask Song Yan Ning how she transmitted the message without being detected.
Song Yan Ning raised her hand to interrupt Xu Mingyue and transmitted through Divine Sense, “My Divine Sense is stronger than most.” The elder’s power was far inferior to hers; there was no way he could detect her Divine Sense fluctuation.
“Oh!” Xu Mingyue nodded, looking at Song Yan Ning with gratitude and admiration in her eyes. Without Song Yan Ning, she would surely have been disqualified—she couldn’t have navigated the array on her own.
Looking towards the yellow area, at this moment, very few had managed to come out of the array aside from her and Song Yan Ning, only one man and one woman. It was clear how challenging the array was.
“Song Yan Ning, what level of Array Master are you?” Xu Mingyue curiously asked. The array in the yellow area was at least a Level 3, so Song Yan Ning must be a Level 3 or higher Array Master, probably a Level 4 or even a Level 5.
Song Yan Ning smiled and replied, “Level 4.” Though she was actually a Level 8 Array Master, she didn’t want to scare Xu Mingyue.
“How old are you?” Xu Mingyue guessed Song Yan Ning wouldn’t be more than five hundred years old.
“Less than a hundred years old.” Song Yan Ning saw Qin Yushen approaching them, the smile at the corner of her mouth deepening slightly. She had forgotten she was in disguise; her appearance didn’t look like someone under a hundred years old to others.
“Ah?!” Xu Mingyue looked at Song Yan Ning in disbelief. She was not even a hundred years old and already a Fourth-level Array Master—that was too genius. If she knew Song Yan Ning wasn’t even twenty, Xu Mingyue probably would have fainted from shock. After all, in the Demon World, two hundred years is just the beginning of life.
Qin Yushen sat down beside Song Yan Ning, holding her hand. This assessment’s task was merely a Third-level Magic Artifact, which was far too simple for him. However, to avoid drawing attention, he consciously slowed down his crafting speed; otherwise, crafting a Third-level Magic Artifact would only take him 15 minutes at most.
Xu Mingyue steadied her emotions and looked at Qin Yushen, “You’re not under a hundred years old as well, are you?”
Qin Yushen nodded once.
Xu Mingyue placed her hand on her forehead, feeling overwhelmed. She was already 356 years old, yet only a Second-level Array Master, and far from being as powerful as Song Yan Ning and Qin Yushen.
Seeing Elder Mie Yu approaching, Xu Mingyue took a deep breath, “May I ask how old you are?”
Elder Mie Yu looked at Xu Mingyue in surprise. She was nearly twenty thousand years old, but this was not something she could comfortably reveal. Anyone over ten thousand years old in the Demon World was no ordinary person. She didn’t want others guessing her identity.
“Are you over two hundred years old?” Xu Mingyue asked, seeing Elder Mie Yu not responding.
“Hmm,” Elder Mie Yu nodded.
Xu Mingyue sighed in relief. Finally, someone normal. Although Song Yan Ning and Qin Yushen didn’t look like they were under a hundred, she believed Song Yan Ning wouldn’t lie to her.
As time passed, the competition drew to a close.
The elder stepped forward, smiling as he looked at those who had passed the review, “Congratulations to all for passing the review and becoming disciples of Tianyi Gate. Please now take out your Identity Jades.”
Everyone took out their Identity Jades, and then saw a beam of light fall down, inscribing the words ‘Tianyi Gate’ on their jades.
Xu Mingyue excitedly looked at the jade in her hand. She had never thought she’d one day become a sect disciple. It was a pity her brother couldn’t see this.
Seeing her own jade labeled with ‘Tianyi Gate’ and an additional ‘Outer’, Song Yan Ning knew her status was that of an Outer Disciple of Tianyi Gate. However, this had no impact on her; she had joined the sect to go to the Extreme Ice North Domain, caring little whether she gained access to the Tianyu Secret Realm or not.
Glancing at the Identity Jade in Qin Yushen’s hand and seeing it was the same as hers, Song Yan Ning smiled.
Elder Mie Yu looked somewhat dejectedly at her Identity Jade. She too wished she could just be an Outer Disciple like the Young Prince, but she was not only an Inner Sect Disciple but also a Core Disciple.
Turning her head, she looked at Song Yan Ning.
Song Yan Ning gave Elder Mie Yu a light smile. Having Elder Mie Yu as an Inner Sect Core Disciple wasn’t without its benefits; they were still unfamiliar with the rules of Tianyi Gate, and having Elder Mie Yu there could save them a lot of trouble.
“Li Song, take them back to Tianyi Gate,” the elder instructed an attending steward.
“Yes!” the steward responded and looked at the group, “Follow me, everyone.”
Everyone hurriedly followed, elated. Joining the sect was a monumental change in their lives. Even a lowly position within a sect was the envy of many.
“I really feel like I’m dreaming, Song Yan Ning, do you feel the same?” Xu Mingyue pinched her own face, felt the pain, and laughed happily.
“Hmm,” Song Yan Ning nodded with a smile. If it weren’t for her goal to reach the Extreme Ice North Domain, she wouldn’t have joined a sect. Luckily, her current identity was just a facade, easily discarded whenever she wished.
Li Song led everyone to a transmission array and looked at the group, “Form a line and enter the transmission array one by one.”
