The Cultivation Method of Junior Sister is Unscientific

Yun Jin could hear Zhao Wuji’s scheming from the North Pole. He no longer aimed for victory; he was forcing a tie.

They hadn’t specified the outcome of a tie, giving him ample room to maneuver.

A hundred black wood insects!

Yun Jin gritted her teeth. “Such an arrangement is utterly despicable!”

Her accusation was filled with anger and despair.

Zhao Wuji savored her expression, a cold smile playing on his lips.

Yes.

It was somewhat despicable.

But.

He did it anyway.

Who could stop him?

It was time for Yun Jin to learn the truth of this world: the strong devour the weak!

His strength, his background—with just a bit of pressure, crushing Yun Jin would be as simple as squashing a black wood insect.

Feeling desperate, are you?

Angry, are you?

Good!

Ma Hongyu dared not speak to Yun Jin or look at his own disciple. Avoiding both, he announced softly, “The third round officially begins.”

He placed the two storage bags in the air.

As the bags opened, the black wood insects surged out, eagerly rushing toward the fragile sprouts.

Yun Jin watched the airborne storage bags, a smile suddenly appearing on her lips.

Even Lin Ya smiled, leaning back in his chair, his demeanor suddenly relaxed.

Their rapid change in mood?

Zhao Wuji’s expression shifted.

Had he been outmaneuvered?

No, impossible!

Even Ma Hongyu couldn’t eliminate a hundred black wood insects in such a short time.

Yun Jin absolutely couldn’t do it!

Lin Ya was genuinely amused.

He had seen Yun Jin’s Insect Banishment Finger.

Yue Zhao had even named it the Six Veins Divine Sword.

Lin Ya found it quite fitting.

A hundred black wood insects were catastrophic for Ye Cheng.

But for Yun Jin? Not necessarily insurmountable.

After all, these insects weren’t particularly strong, just numerous.

With Yun Jin’s Six Veins Divine Sword, she might not fear them at all.

Lin Ya knew this well.

His earlier anger and reluctance had been purely an act!

If he hadn’t performed, Zhao Wuji might have sensed something amiss and devised another scheme.

Yun Jin, being clever, had clearly thought of this too, deliberately questioning Ma Hongyu.

The more anxious and angry they appeared, the more Zhao Wuji would stick to his plan.

Now, with the third round officially beginning.

Even if Zhao Wuji wanted to backtrack, he had no chance.

The moment the insect swarm descended.

Ye Cheng’s eyes filled with despair.

He desperately used his Insect Banishment Finger, but after eliminating only two or three, the other sprouts were already mostly devoured.

Ye Cheng continued his efforts.

But his struggle was futile.

Although he could eventually kill all the insects, the seeds he had painstakingly nurtured were already gone, not a single one remaining.

Despite knowing this.

Ye Cheng pressed his lips together, earnestly using his Insect Banishment Finger.

In the end.

The black wood insects were eliminated, but his spirit field was left in ruins.

Ye Cheng gazed at the desolate land, his eyes reddening slightly.

He had always loved cultivation, believing it was work that would always yield results if one put in the effort.

People might let you down, but the land never would.

This time.

The land hadn’t failed him; he had failed the land.

Ye Cheng’s heart ached. He knelt in the center of the spirit field, unable to raise his head for a long time.

But now, no one had the heart to focus on Ye Cheng.

They stared at the insect corpses littering Yun Jin’s side and the unscathed sprouts, their minds in a daze.

How had Yun Jin managed this?

Oh.

They remembered.

When the black wood insects had rained down.

Yun Jin’s ten fingers suddenly began shooting beams of light in rapid succession, instantly dropping ten insect corpses.

She continued, firing beam after beam.

In a matter of moments.

Before the insects could do much damage, they had all become corpses.

Three seconds.

All black wood insects, annihilated.

Yun Jin stood calmly in place, not having moved a single step.

At this moment.

She finally turned her piercing gaze toward Zhao Wuji.

Yun Jin declared loudly, “Sect Leader, it seems I’ve won this competition!”

Zhao Wuji stared at the sea of insect corpses, his lips trembling slightly.

She had won.

Yun Jin had won.

But how was this possible?

He had gone from being utterly confident to shamelessly altering the competition rules, all just to force a tie.

Yet in the end, it was such an overwhelming victory!

“No…”

“It’s impossible…”

Ye Danxia mumbled, collapsing to the ground in despair.

Yun Jin had won, which meant… she would die?

No!

She had a Celestial Spirit Root.

She still had a bright future ahead.

How could she die?

Her master would still save her, right?

Ye Danxia looked at Zhao Wuji with a glimmer of hope.

Zhao Wuji dared not meet Ye Danxia’s gaze. His face ashen, he frantically searched for a solution.

Now it wasn’t just a matter of Ye Danxia’s life.

According to the contract, he might have to return control of all those spirit fields to their respective sects.

If he truly had to comply.

Not only would his prestige within the sect plummet, but his actual control over the sect would also greatly diminish.

Those peak masters with wavering loyalties, like Fang Mingyue, would undoubtedly start making small moves against him.

Even those who had always followed his orders unquestioningly, like Huo Lie and his group, might not be so obedient in the future!

Yun Jin, a mere disciple, had managed to crack open his impregnable rule!

The central wall came down.

Ye Cheng instinctively looked toward Yun Jin’s side.

He had prepared himself to see another barren wasteland.

But.

To his shock, Yun Jin’s plot was lush and green, showing no signs of damage.

If not for the pile of black wood insect corpses, he would have thought Yun Jin hadn’t faced the same ordeal as him.

At this moment.

Ye Cheng didn’t dwell on how Yun Jin had accomplished this feat. He didn’t even feel embarrassed. Looking at that patch of green, a contented smile appeared on his lips as he said softly to Yun Jin, “Thank you.”

Thank you for protecting these seeds.

Yun Jin was taken aback, looking at Senior Brother Ye with a puzzled expression.

Seeing his genuinely delighted face, Yun Jin didn’t know quite how to react.

She could only conclude.

This Senior Brother Ye truly loved cultivation.

For such a person to be under the Sect Leader’s wing was a waste of talent.

While she felt it was a pity, she was determined to claim her victory.

“Uncle Ma, can you announce the final result now?” Yun Jin looked directly at Ma Hongyu.

Ma Hongyu’s lips trembled as he slowly said, “The winner of this competition is… the winner is…”

He seemed unable to utter the name.

Ye Cheng calmly stepped forward. “Judging by the results, this disciple has lost.”

Ye Cheng had personally admitted defeat.

Ripples of the Heavenly Dao flashed over Yun Jin and Zhao Wuji, judging that Yun Jin had met the victory conditions.

A smile curled the corners of Yun Jin’s lips.
