At this moment, Tantai Jinglian shifted her gaze to Su Ling'er, who was sitting right next to Chu Ge, a faint smile playing on her lips.
"Xiao Ling'er~"
Su Ling'er shivered at the sound of that call, and some unpleasant memories flooded her mind.
Seeing Tantai Jinglian's meaningful gaze, she quickly reacted and dutifully gave up the seat right next to Chu Ge.
What came into the sight of the Elders was Chu Ge sitting in the center.
On his left and right were Grand Elder Tantai Jinglian and Yunmiao Pavilion Master Shui Qianrou.
This scene utterly dumbfounded the Elders; it was naturally very inappropriate, yet no one dared to say anything more.
After all, they, as fellow Disciples, knew Tantai Jinglian's temperament very well.
"Shibo (Senior Martial Aunt) looks quite different today."
Chu Ge spoke softly.
Although she was an Elder, Chu Ge felt no restraint when facing Tantai Jinglian; instead, he was quite casual.
At the same time, his gaze couldn't help but fall upon Tantai Jinglian again.
Lustrously fair, tall, and erect.
Overall, while the scale couldn't compare to numerical anomalies like Su Ling'er and Shui Qianrou, it could certainly be called a peak.
Chu Ge was momentarily captivated by this mountain scenery, unable to tear his gaze away!
"Hehe, it's fine, others can't see it."
Tantai Jinglian said with a smile, not at all rejecting Chu Ge's gaze; instead, she openly displayed herself.
She had dressed this way today specifically for Chu Ge to see.
She had also used a small trick: in the eyes of the Taihuang Elders and everyone else, everything was normal.
But in Chu Ge's eyes, she was dressed extremely boldly, an enchantress constantly exuding an alluring aura.
However, because Diary Copy owners are immune to mind-bewitching techniques from each other, Su Ling'er and the others could also see it.
"So that's how it is."
Upon hearing this, Chu Ge understood and nodded, not thinking too much about it.
He just assumed Tantai Jinglian wanted to dress this way and didn't want outsiders to see it.
But just as Chu Ge, with great willpower, overcame the attraction of the profound cleavage and retracted his gaze,
Tantai Jinglian turned her head and leaned close to Chu Ge's ear: "Actually... I specifically wore this for you, Shizhi, today. How is it? Do you like it?"
Her voice became incredibly alluring, with a hint of sweetness.
Her hot breath fanned Chu Ge's cheek, and his mind instantly buzzed, his thoughts going blank for a moment!
He trembled slightly, and his face couldn't help but flush a little.
"Li..." The answer almost slipped out, but Chu Ge barely managed to recover.
He was just a hair's breadth away from being fully affected by this charm!
Tantai Jinglian, on the other hand, smiled even more brilliantly.
Especially upon seeing Chu Ge's usually calm expression now imbued with a blush, an unparalleled sense of satisfaction surged in Tantai Jinglian's heart!
"Just kidding, I'm your Shibo (Senior Martial Aunt), Shizhi... you mustn't harbor bad intentions towards Shibo (Senior Martial Aunt)~"
That's what she said, but Chu Ge clearly saw.
After speaking, Tantai Jinglian even slightly stuck out her pink tongue and lightly licked her luscious lips.
'Enchantress!'
Chu Ge cursed inwardly. He finally understood why Su Ling'er always secretly called her a bad woman.
Even he, for a moment, was careless and had his mind captivated by her.
To the point that his emotions were manipulated by her!
Such an enchantress, capable of bringing disaster to a nation, calling her a bad woman was truly accurate!
The several women beside Chu Ge took all of this in.
Shui Qianrou wore a faint smile.
She naturally understood why Tantai Jinglian was doing this.
However, she had no intention of imitating her; she had her own advantages and, naturally, her own unique plan.
As for the Lu Family Sisters, their eyes were wide with fascination, watching unblinkingly, like diligent students studying hard.
Only Su Ling'er glared at Tantai Jinglian at this moment, but she could do nothing, only secretly attack with her eyes.
But when Tantai Jinglian turned her body and glanced at her lightly,
Su Ling'er immediately adopted a harmless expression, scratching her head with a chuckle, looking adorably naive.
However, at this moment, she was constantly shouting in her heart: "Master! Hurry up and come, the bad woman is going to bewitch Junior Brother's soul!"
Chu Ge, of course, was completely unaware of the inner thoughts of the several women.
He only felt that Tantai Jinglian's after-effects were too strong, still causing his emotions to fluctuate.
Therefore, at this moment, he sat upright, not daring to turn his gaze back again.
On the high platform.
Xu Xiuzhu saw that all the factions had taken their seats and that the time was almost right.
He cleared his throat, his powerful spiritual energy contained within, and his voice instantly echoed in everyone's ears.
Seeing the slightly noisy discussions in the arena cease, he nodded with satisfaction and slowly began to speak.
"Now, I declare, the New Disciple Grand Competition begins now!"
As his voice fell.
The spacious training ground instantly stirred, appearing to be divided into dozens of sections.
The next moment, from beneath these divided areas, a series of elevated platforms rose!
The platforms appeared small, but once one stepped onto them, they would discover a world within.
Each platform had enough internal space for Middle Three Heavens Cultivators to freely display their techniques, without being restricted by the venue.
Those participating in this Grand Competition included not only Disciples who joined Taihuang at the same time as Chu Ge but also some who had joined a period earlier.
Additionally, there were some promising talents discovered and brought into Taihuang by Elders from the Taihuang Holy Land who were out on missions.
Therefore, while the number of participants in the Grand Competition was not large, it was not small either, roughly estimated at four to five hundred people.
As names were called out one by one.
Disciples, eager and long-awaiting, stepped onto the platforms.
Most were at the Second Level Heaven Realm, with occasional Third Level Heaven Cultivators who demonstrated dominance, winning battle after battle on their respective platforms.
The rules of the Grand Competition were simple: the winner of a platform became the platform Master and defended their position.
They would await challenges from other Disciples until no one dared to step onto the stage, ultimately determining the strongest twenty individuals, who would then engage in battles among themselves to determine their rankings.
There was no need to worry about consumption issues; with each victory, the grand formation of the training ground would activate, restoring the winner's physical and mental exhaustion.
After all, it was merely the Lower Three Heavens; even after a day and a night, the consumption would not amount to even one percent of what a Great Power Cultivator would consume, and recovery was simple.
"Next, Ye Chen."
As this name appeared, many gazes fell towards the direction of the participating Disciples.
The name Ye Chen was well-known throughout the Inner Sect and even Taihuang.
Not only within the Taihuang Holy Land, but even some of the forces present for the ceremony today were familiar with this name.
"Which platform do you wish to challenge?"
Ye Chen's lips curved into a wicked smile as he slowly replied, "Platform One."
As his voice fell, Ye Chen stepped forward with resolute strides.
At Yunmiao Pavilion's location.
Upon hearing this name, Tantai Xuanyin's gaze slowly shifted downwards, landing on the young man steadily moving forward, heading towards Platform One.
