Hearing Jiang Chen's provocation, the Inner Disciple showed no change of expression. He just continued to stare at Jiang Chen and increase the pressure he was putting him under.

"Guhh!"

Jiang Chen let out a groan from the increasing pressure he felt, his legs shaking and sweat dripping down his face.

Many other disciples were attracted to the ongoing commotion. Various Outer Sect Disciples surrounded the area discussing and gossiping about Jiang Chen and the Inner Disciple.

"How did that Outer Disciple anger an Inner Disciple?"

"Hahah, this guy just joined the sect and already angered an Inner Disciple, poor kid."

"Should we call an Elder over?"

"Don't bother, there's probably an Elder around here somewhere already. They don't intervene in things unless they look serious."

As the surrounding disciples were conversing and Jiang Chen was having a battle of will, a new figure appeared in the sky near Jiang Chen that spoke out.

"Hahaha, Deng Gui, what do we have here? Trying to get an unfair advantage I see!" A handsome young man also wearing an Inner Disciple uniform appeared, facing the other Inner Sect Disciple.

Deng Gui's face scrunched up in displeasure seeing the newcomer.

"Your information's quick as usual Shang Jun." Deng Gui slowly turned to look at the newcomer as he spoke.

"Thank you, you're too kind!" The newcomer, Shang Jun smilingly replied then turned to look down at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen was currently catching his breath, shortly after Shang Jun showed up the pressure surrounding him disappeared.

"Don't worry, he was just testing you out. There is a tradition some of us Inner Disciples started a long time ago. We bet resources on the accomplishments of the disciples brought in by the Vice Sect Master, In fact over a week ago we just had gathering to bet on someone, though considering her potential everyone pretty much bet the same way with little variance. Though since Deng Gui was late to the meeting we forced him to bet the opposite way. He was angry about it but looks like he lucked out a little, finding out about you before even me, so soon after another disciple invited by the Vice Sect Master joined, and was trying to gauge your potential, talents, and attitude. Usually people brought in by the Vice Sect Master don't take the examinations and are directly escorted into the sect, you slipped through the cracks."

As Shang Jun spoke he floated down towards Jiang Chen looking at him with glowing eyes and a couple strange treasures hidden in his sleeve that were glowing slightly.

"Tsk! Hey stop that, I already sent a message to the others, there is a meeting scheduled for tomorrow. Plus I doubt any of your treasures can find out whatever he's hiding." Deng Gui called out towards Shang Jun with a harrumph.

Shang Jun just smiled and stealthily put away the treasures in his sleeves.

Turning around to look at his younger brother Deng Gui said, "Lets Go!"

"Eh, but Brother what about Jiang Chen, I thought you were going to teach him a lesson?" Deng You exclaimed, dissatisfied.

Glancing sideways at his foolish younger brother, Deng Gui conjured a ball of Qi at his finger tip which he flicked at his brothers face.

The small ball of Qi zoomed at Deng You, hitting him between the eyes along with a small explosion.

*Bang!*

"Owww!" Deng You yelled in pain and looked at his brother in confusion and anger.

"Don't mess with anyone brought in by the Vice Sect Master, most of them are crazy and dare to do anything. Nothing good can happen if you mess with them." Deng Gui said without even turning around.

"But didn't you just mess with him?" Deng You said with confusion evident on his face, off to the side Jiang Chen and the others also looked perplexed.

Deng Gui slowly turned around to glare at his foolish brother.

Deng You felt fear being stared at and a formless pressure surrounded him.

Frightened, Deng You lowered his head in silence, cold sweat forming on his face.

After a moment Deng Gui turned back around, a slight frown on his face and began walking away.

Deng You hurriedly followed behind, head still lowered, along with his followers.

"Don't mind him, he's no good when it comes to communicating, plus he was beaten down by someone brought in by the Vice Sect Master back when he was an Outer Disciple and now he cant help but provoke anyone brought in by the Vice Sect Master." Shang Jun said toward Jiang Chen who had gradually caught his breath and was now standing straight.

Deng Gui who was walking away paused his steps for a moment before continuing.

"... I see, thank you for your help Senior Brother." Jiang Chen hesitantly spoke in greetings towards Shang Jun.

As Deng Gui and Deng You were leaving, the surrounding disciples were parting for them. Then the disciples started exclaiming louder and pointing in a certain direction, attracting everyone's attention.

"Woah!"

"I'm in love!"

"Wow is that the Goddess you mentioned before? Truly beautiful."

"She's like an immortal descended from the heavens!"

"Those legs!"

"That's an Inner Disciple uniform? I wish all the female disciples had to wear that!"

"I have a new dream in life!"

Jiang Chen, his companions, and all the other disciples gaze's were naturally drawn in the direction of the disciples shouts.

.....

A few minutes earlier Bai Jing had arrived in the sky on top Origin Mountain. She purposely chose to elegantly descend at a spot with a crowd of disciples, as it was the first time Bai Jing was debuting her new look so she wanted to see other disciples reactions to her uniform.

She wasn't disappointed. Wide eyed stares, drooling, mummering, and starry eyes were just some of the reactions she received. Bai Jing felt proud and subconsciously walked with more of a sway, swinging her hips back and forth.

She and Ying Ying walked through the sect toward the Arena, where Uncle Fu said he would be waiting for her. While relishing in the compliments and admiration she received from the surrounding disciples, there were also a few disciples that followed her around in a trance.

One strange yet normal looking disciple who was following Bai Jing in a trance, eyes trained on her feet and each step she made, muttering to himself unintelligibly, "lick" and "feet" being the only intelligible words one could decipher from his ramblings.

Some brave disciples, both men and women, came up to Bai Jing to try and start a conversation but Ying Ying stepped forward each time to stop them from bothering Bai Jing, as she was told to do previously.

As Bai Jing and Ying Ying were getting closer to the Arena, they also spotted other disciples that were headed in the same direction, gossiping about something.

At this moment a certain group of disciples were walking straight towards Bai Jing from the opposite direction.

The disciple leading the group looked calm, collected, and wore an Outer Disciple Uniform, he looked strangely familiar to Bai Jing.

Stopping respectfully a few meters away, the disciple bowed and said, "Greetings Cousin Jing, I am Bai Leng and behind me are other disciples of the Bai Clan. We played together a few times in the clan when you were younger, I hope you remember me."

"Ah..." Bai Jing slightly nodded, recalling why he seemed familiar yet different.

Bai Jing played with many of the Bai Clan children when she was young it wasn't until she got older did she started being distant from other clan members.

Bai Leng slightly smiled and continued.

"The Clan informed me of your arrival at the sect and I was eager to meet you again. I heard you would be choosing a servant disciple today so I gathered these other Bai Clan disciples and waited here for you." Bai Leng then introduced the men and women behind him to Bai Jing and Ying Ying.

They were various Bai Clan disciples of low status, even a branch clan member was in the small group.

Bai Jing just nodded in greetings toward the disciples. Ying Ying was a bit more polite in her greeting.

"If you need anything done around the sect's area or help of any sort you can call for us and we will come to assist you." Bai Leng smiled and the disciples behind him gave a small bow.

Bai Jing looked content seeing how they were offering their services, but after thinking for a moment she asked, "Aren't there any Inner Disciples or higher of the clan here?"

Bai Leng looked hesitant but eventually spoke out.

"There are a few but... they were instructed not to come in contact or aid you."

Bai Jing furrowed her brows at this.

"Tsk!"

'Probably father's doing, at least I have a few lackeys to do some minor things and Ying Ying can have more free time.'

Bai Jing just shook her head then she along with Ying Ying exchanged their contact with Bai Leng through their Communication Jade and sect tokens.

Bai Jing had nothing for Bai Leng to do so she bid him and the others farewell. Then she and Ying Ying continued their way towards the Arena that was shortly ahead of them.

As they got closer, they saw more and more disciples rushing towards the general area talking amongst themselves, a big crowd gathered up ahead.

Curious, Bai Jing started to listen in on the other disciples conversations and gossip

"..." Bai Jing's eyebrows rose in interest hearing the ongoing conversations.

'Jiang Chen? The same Jiang Chen Uncle Fu talked about? But this guy apparently only has Mortal Grade Spirit Roots, interesting.'

Bai Jing was intrigued and continued forward toward the crowd, wanting to meet the Jiang Chen Uncle Fu alluded to so much and could even be her rival.

As she walked toward the gathering, Bai Jing ran her fingers through her hair and used her pinky finger to part the clothes on her chest a tiny bit, showing off some more cleavage. Little Zi stuck his head out from within Bai Jing's cleavage when she did this and looked at the surroundings, flicking his tongue around, before retreating back in.

One particular disciple that had an eye for Bai Jing saw this and couldn't help but say, "In my next life I hope to be reincarnated as that snake."

Bai Jing continued listening to the surrounding disciples discussions as she made her way through the crowd that automatically parted to make way for her, and the direction of the disciples' conversations couldn't help but change toward her.

'I thought he made some serious enemies on his first day already, turns out it was nothing. Here I was thinking he might be a Main Character or something, I guess he cant be the Main Character of the world, that's only reserved for me.' Bai Jing was amused hearing about what had happened to Jiang Chen.

Bai Jing finally makes her way through the crowd and caught sight of Jiang Chen and his companions who were also staring at her as she emerged. Bai Jing couldn't help but change her mind about him upon seeing and his companions.

'Isn't this the typical MC format? That silver haired girl doesn't look bad at all, she's got the potential to be a beauty, and I guess that's the Jiang Chen himself. He doesn't look too bad, there's something special about him, like he gives off an aura that draws me in. Then there's the typical fatty as well standing next to him.'

Bai Jing's eyes flashed as she stared at Jiang Chen for a moment, a slight smile appearing on his face.

'How interesting~'

All the surrounding disciples became engrossed by Bai Jing's small smile.

"The Goddess has smiled right at me. Is she trying to tell me something?"

"What are you saying she obviously smiled at me!?"

Some random disciples fought over who Bai Jing's smile was meant for while others became even more engrossed.

Jiang Chen was one of the first to break out from his stupor.

'I thought Yue was beautiful before, but now this girl is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen by far. Just who is she?'

Collecting his thoughts Jiang Chen cupped his hands and bowed slightly towards Bai Jing who was still staring at him.

"Greetings Senior Sister, I'm Jiang Chen a new disciple may I know your name?"

Ying Ying stepped forward and was about to speak for Bai Jing but Bai Jing reached out and pinched part of her clothes and pulled her back.

Ying Ying was surprise and quietly retreated half a step behind Bai Jing.

Bai Jing started walking towards Jiang Chen silently.

Shang Jue who was standing by the side however took a few steps forward and introduced himself with a smile, as well as reveal her identity.

"Junior Sister Bai Jing it is a pleasure to meet you! If you need any help within the sect you can come to me, Shang Jun, I will be sure to help! Would you like to meet with some of the other Inner Disciples? I can arrange a meeting whenever you have some free time."

The surrounding disciples in the know couldn't help but start talking about Bai Jing's identity.

"So that's the princess of the Bai Clan!"

"Amazing! She has both peerless talent and looks!"

Bai Jing only glanced at Shang Jun for a moment before ignoring him completely and continuing forward, coming to a stop right in front of Jiang Chen, looking down at him with a slight tilt of her head.

Jiang Chen subconsciously swallowed the saliva gathered in his mouth after being stared at by Bai Jing's piecing, glowing amber eyes, less than a meter from his face.

'She's truly beautiful!' Jiang Chen thought, staring at Bai Jing's flawless face, eyes focusing on her plump and glistening lips.

Right next to Jiang Chen was Yue who had a frown on her face seeing how Jiang Chen was reacting to Bai Jing.

Yue stepped closer to Jiang Chen and grabbed the side of his uniform gently. She stared right at Bai Jing's face and couldn't help but feel intimidated by her beauty, subconsciously nibbling on her lips.

Bai Jing turned her eyes to glance at Yue, startling her a little.

Bai Jing's smile grew a little wider seeing her reaction.
