The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix C26

Chapter 26: The protagonist is distracted

Wang Shouren had originally intended to let Feng Yudie stay in his cave for a week. After all, the sect master had also instructed him to take care of Feng Yudie. Moreover, the living conditions in the shared room were not suitable for dogs. With fifty people squeezed into one room, any snoring or unpleasant smells would make it difficult to sleep.

However, since Mr. Qi had also asked him to arrange a good residence for the two, Wang Shouren decided to take them directly to the inner disciples’ living area. This area was a spiritual land situated on the mountainside of Xuanxing Sect’s Tianyun Peak. Ten recently built triple courtyards adorned the land, surrounded by mature spiritual plants, offering a beautiful and spiritually abundant environment. Although the triple courtyards appeared unfinished, Xuanxing Sect craftsmen were actively working on repairs.

These courtyards were designated for disciples who passed the sect selection, and only the top ten were eligible to reside there. Most disciples were accommodated on other mountain peaks, with four to six people sharing a room. The triple courtyards featured high-quality alchemy furnaces, a spiritual field for cultivating plants, and soil from the spiritual land, satisfying the daily needs of foundation-building cultivators.

After guiding them down with his sword, Wang Shouren told Feng Yudie, “You can choose any of these ten rooms to live in until you reach the later stage of foundation building. Once you reach that stage, the sect will allocate land for you, and you can establish your cave.”

Feng Yudie eagerly interrupted, “I’m willing! Junior Sister Pei, you can live with me here. We can sleep, practice, and enjoy delicious meals together. How great is that?”

Pei Lianxue, with a slightly disgusted expression, asked, “Elder Wang, am I staying here as well?”

“As long as Feng Yudie agrees, you can live here with her. There’s also accommodation for accompanying disciples at Yuequan Peak.”

“I’m willing!” Feng Yudie exclaimed, envisioning a future of shared activities with her new companion.

Pei Lianxue, looking repulsed, took a step back. She couldn’t help but feel that Feng Yudie’s actions were all aimed at getting closer to her senior brother.

At that moment, a woman practicing swordplay in a nearby courtyard approached them. She had purple hair, golden eyes, and expensive-looking clothes. After saluting Wang Shouren, she asked, “Elder Wang, why have you brought them here?”

Wang Shouren, feeling a bit awkward, explained, “Mr. Qi asked me to find a better place for these two.”

“Did Mr. Qi say that?” the woman frowned and said seriously, “But this goes against the house rules. Only the top ten can stay here.”

“This… they will definitely be in the top ten,” Wang Shouren paused and replied, “I just wanted to bring them here to stay in advance. After all, considering the situation of these bunk beds, you also know.”

The woman didn’t seem to appreciate it and frowned and retorted, “The sword test and the physical test haven’t even started yet. How can you determine that they can pass the selection?”

The woman, similar in age to Feng Yudie, had an imposing aura, leaving Wang Shouren momentarily unsure of what to say.

“Well…”

“Elder Wang, are they from prominent families, and did they offer you gifts?” the woman stared into Wang Shouren’s eyes and frowned, “Elder Wang, the Xuanxing Sect selects every five years, and you should know the rules. Accepting bribes is an unhealthy practice. If the elders find out, you will face severe penalties…”

Wang Shouren sighed, glanced at Feng Yudie and Feng Yudie behind him, approached, and whispered, “Miss, not only Mr. Qi but also the sect master asked me to take care of them in advance.”

“Even Mother asked you to take care…” The woman was surprised, looked at Feng Yudie and Pei Lianxue again, furrowed her brows in confusion, and asked, “Why?”

“This… please ask the sect master about this matter when you go back.”

“…”

The woman slightly bit her lip, seemingly dissatisfied but didn’t say anything. She glared at Feng Yudie and Pei Lianxue, then turned and walked back to one of the three courtyards.

After she left, Feng Yudie approached and asked, “Elder Wang, who is she? She’s so beautiful.”

“Beautiful…” Wang Shouren hesitated for a moment and replied, “Her name is Xiao Yunluo, the young lady of the Xuanxing Sect. From now on, you and she will be considered disciples of the same period, so just call her Senior Sister Xiao on weekdays.”

Feng Yudie nodded and glanced at Xiao Yunluo’s courtyard but quickly looked away, walked back to Pei Lianxue with a smile, and winked at her.

“Junior Sister Pei, she’s not as beautiful as you.”

Pei Lianxue was confused, “I don’t mind, why do you emphasize that?”

“Don’t mind~ Just don’t mind! Huh—” Feng Yudie sighed lightly, giggled again, “Hehe~hehe…”

Wang Shouren, now back to his senses, continued leading them forward, explaining, “Let me tell you some precautions. Each triple courtyard is equipped with a high-grade alchemy furnace. On weekdays…”

After settling Feng Yudie and Pei Lianxue, Wang Shouren returned to the academy and rested in the Spirit Gathering Formation. At sunset, after the written selection exam, Qi Baishi called him to help with grading.

However, he was actually the only one grading nearly 10,000 answer sheets. Qi Baishi only selected a few papers that interested him to grade.

Feng Yudie’s paper received a score of ninety-five from Qi Baishi, with the deduction for her messy handwriting. Pei Lianxue, on the other hand, received a perfect score from Qi Baishi.

Although Wang Shouren expected high scores for both, the perfect score exceeded his expectations.

In previous selections of the Xuanxing Sect, no one had ever received a perfect score in the written exam.

After hesitating, Wang Shouren couldn’t help but suggest, “Mr. Qi, is it appropriate to give a perfect score? The answers are indeed impeccable, but perhaps deduct a few points?”

Qi Baishi put down the book, glanced at him, and said, “Huh! I set the scores. If anyone has objections, let them come to me personally.”
