Chapter 226, Section 4 is yours.
[! This team is so good-looking! The female cultivator with her hands in her pockets and a high ponytail is absolutely stunning! It feels like the Wanjue Academy's uniform was tailor-made for her.]
Forget about her, the others next to her are all natural clothes hangers. I always knew that cultivators were more attractive than ordinary people, but I didn't expect this group to be so outstandingly beautiful among cultivators.
She's truly beautiful. There's one person whose hairstyle I thought was a man, but her face has very delicate feminine features. So beautiful!
These five people's faces are truly astounding; even the one with glasses has incredibly fair skin.
I like the third lady; her figure is amazing! Even the round-neck robe can't hide her shapely curves. Ahhh, so alluring!

Jiang He and Bai Zhizhou were near the back of the group. When the screen switched to their appearance, both the viewers in the live stream and the audience in the stands were stunned.
The five individuals each had their own distinct style. Zhong Liyu, who was mixed in with the group, initially tried to maintain his image as a noble young master, but his true nature was soon revealed. He looked around, observing the people in the bright yellow group next door for quite a while:
"Tsk tsk, Wan Qiziye is really lucky to have inherited such good genes. I feel like this year's academy competition will be a bit tough."
"You're only finding out now? Besides Wanqi, Xiling and Jingxu also have members from the royal family. I've read in stories that royals like that start fighting to the death when they're young. They must have eight hundred brains. It's so annoying." Li Ling hates intrigue the most, but that's basically what spiritual cultivation is all about.
Li Ling tugged at his robes in frustration. It was a custom-made holographic suit, and the size was right, but he just didn't feel comfortable with it. He felt strange that his identity had suddenly become so respectable.
Zhong Liyu's mouth kept moving. Li Ling didn't talk much, but she and Zhong Liyu often bickered.
Jiang He glanced at Wan Qiziye from afar, but didn't really see what he looked like. Instead, she took a liking to the staff he was wearing.
Wanqi Ziye's staff had multiple patterns. Generally, when crafting a staff, the craftsman would carve magical patterns on it with spiritual power to enhance its power and stability.
The better the material of the staff, the more runes it can carry, and the higher the default grade of the staff will be as the number of runes increases.
Jiang He had been watching for a long time, and her hands were itching to grab it.
After the cultivators from the four academies arrived in the circular arena, the cultivators from the other academies who had successfully registered came out through the various small gates.
The cultivators from Mingyue Academy approached the group from Lingqing Academy as soon as they came out.
Mingyue Academy is jokingly referred to by netizens as the second Lingqing Academy.
Mingyue Academy received financial support from the principal of Lingqing Academy, and its ranking in the previous academy competition was also quite high, placing fourth.
Today, the positioning of Mingyue Academy is quite ingenious, with Ling Qing on the right and Wan Jue on the left.
This positioning immediately sparked the audience's gossip:
[Tsk tsk, this positioning, I suspect it was deliberately arranged by the organizers. Everyone knows Ling Qing and Wan Jue Academy have a grudge, and Ming Yue is basically Ling Qing's lackey. What an exciting positioning.]
The organizers didn't go all out. If it were my plan, Wan Jue should have stood in the middle, with Ling Qing and Ming Yue flanking him. That would have been much more exciting.
Haha, if the organizers arrange things like this, I might have the illusion that I won't do it next year.
What kind of lackey? Don't talk nonsense. Our Mingyue is an upright person, okay?
Wishing everyone a prosperous New Year: Um, I've watched the annual university competition every year, and Ling Qing always teams up with Ming Yue to eliminate Wan Jue right at the start.
This strategy is actually quite... (I didn't say anything wrong with Ling Qing, the above is purely my personal opinion. Ling Qing Academy's die-hard fans, please don't come and curse me. My family and I are all healthy, please don't curse me! The new year is coming soon, wishing everyone a prosperous new year! May you have boundless wealth, abundant blessings, many talents, be loved and wealthy, have constant good luck, and everything go smoothly! Congratulations on your fortune!)
Wishing everyone a prosperous New Year!
I'll take it, I'll take it.
Hahaha, that cracked me up! I accept the well wishes from the person upstairs, but isn't your attitude a little too cautious?
Yes, that's very cautious. But you're right, Ling Qing does indeed team up with Ming Yue, and sometimes with Xiling too. Eliminating Wan Jue, the weakest one, first makes it easier to compete for the top three later. I think it makes perfect sense.
Sigh, don't even mention it. Last time I just mentioned Ling Qing, and trolls have been chasing me and attacking me. They've followed me from my comments to my homepage, then to my blog, forums, and all sorts of other accounts. They've cursed my ancestors for hundreds of generations. I'm really scared.
Wow, this is insane! Lingqing Academy is just a school, yet it has so many fans? They seem even more fanatical than the fans of celebrities in the entertainment industry!
Stop, stop, stop talking! They'll be here by the smell soon enough. Lingqing Academy has hundreds of millions of fans; we can't afford to mess with them.
To be honest, given how weak Wanjue Academy is, shouldn't they have been eliminated?

Mingyue Academy is very close to Wanjue Academy, and Jiang He, Zhong Liyu and the others are secretly keeping an eye on the magical artifacts of other cultivators.
Zhong Liyu, in particular, is a complete waste of his handsome face. When he doesn't speak, he is a quiet and beautiful man, but as soon as he opens his mouth, his stubble-covered, masculine voice, coupled with his frequent head-turning and looking around, makes his face look less appealing.
Jiang He, with her hands in her pockets, tried her best to memorize all the faces of the cultivators she could see and the magical artifacts they wore.
When Jiang He's gaze turned towards Mingyue, Zhao Wuchi, a male cultivator with triangular eyes standing in the back row of Mingyue Academy, glanced at Jiang He with disdain:
"What are you looking at? A useless monk from a useless university."
Zhao Wuchi stayed in Mingyue for four years. After Mingyue accepted Ling Qing's funding, the cultivators of Mingyue Academy made rapid progress, and their cultivation speed became faster and faster with the added bonus of spending money.
He is now at the late stage of Golden Core, just one step away from reaching Nascent Soul. He has never had a good impression of the people from Wanjue Academy.
Jiang He felt completely baffled when she heard Zhao Wuchi's words:
"Useless, are you calling me trash?"
Jiang He had heard this word countless times; her ears were practically calloused from hearing it. Faced with Zhao Wuchi's malice, Jiang He was completely immune to his malice.
"Yeah, who else could it be but you? Your Wanjue Academy is truly useless."
When Zhao Wuchi looked at Jiang He, his gaze was full of mockery:
"Last year, they almost couldn't even beat Mingyue. I think Wanjue Academy is no longer worthy of standing among the top four universities."
"Oh."
Jiang He gave a perfunctory reply with one word, and then continued to memorize faces and magical artifacts.
Seeing that Jiang He was ignoring him, Zhao Wuchi became even angrier:
"Hehe, you'll know who came in fourth when the results of this year's competition are out."
"Okay, fourth place is yours."
Jiang He looked up, her tone flat, her eyes carrying a faint yet distant emotion.
