"The rankings for the two-domain competition have been announced?" Lan Yue was checking the system panel, calculating her remaining points.
Suddenly, I saw Yunxi and her friends rushing over.
Yunxi looked delighted and immediately pulled Lanyue outside.
"Lan Yue, Senior Brother Li Bai said the competition points have been calculated, and the Holy Land has also invited all of us to go there!"
Yunxi had been waiting for the results of this competition. She was very confident about the final battle in the Demon Realm, and felt that her friends' final rankings would definitely be good.
But the people around them didn't think so. Although most people knew that the Nanling Sect had achieved good results in the previous two competitions, they were still not very optimistic about them.
"The little ones are out playing again, huh? But the list of those who made the list has only just been released, and it's quite lively over there. You probably won't be able to squeeze in. Let your senior brothers and sisters check your scores. After all, you little ones are here in the Two Domains Competition to gain experience, and it's already good enough that you can even participate."
"It's quite impressive that you guys have reached the Foundation Establishment stage at your age, but let's not think too much about this spot. After all, the Golden Core disciples have a greater advantage."
After Lan Yue and the other kids came out, the people from the nearby Qinghai Sect were chatting and laughing.
Hearing what they were discussing, the little ones didn't say much.
After all, we have to see the final result. Who says that Foundation Establishment disciples have no chance of getting a spot?
Putting everything else aside, they felt that their performance in this Demon Realm battlefield was really quite good!
"Don't be sad, you little ones. After all, your cultivation level is what it is. Unlike our sect, which knows that Foundation Establishment disciples are not very useful, we only sent a few Golden Core disciples from the beginning. They did well this time. It is said that they performed very well in the Demon Realm battlefield. It is no problem for them to get a spot in the Four Domains Competition."
An elder from the Qinghai Sect was still speaking, his face slightly flushed, clearly extremely proud.
"My Zhongxue has already gone to check the spots. Would you like Zhongxue to take a look for you?" The slightly chubby elder came over again when he saw that the little ones hadn't made a move.
This was the first time Lan Yue had met this elder. She smiled but didn't say anything, instead taking her friend's hand.
What a joke! People who brag in front of the female lead are usually villains or henchmen, and they'll definitely get their comeuppance eventually.
It's not that it won't happen, it's just that the time hasn't come yet!
Thinking of the female lead, Lan Yue began to wonder where the male lead had gone.
The male protagonist left here some time ago and returned to the Eastern Region, presumably to handle family matters and participate in the Eastern Region's competition.
Yunxi, the friend, didn't react at all. Lanyue felt that the male lead would probably have a long way to go, and his path might even be more difficult than in the original story.
"Elder Wei, you don't need to worry about checking the quota. Our elders from the Southern Spirit Sect are already waiting there. They will send a message as soon as they receive the news." Not far away, Qingzhu, holding a dark green oil-paper umbrella, slowly walked over and put her arm around them.
"Xiao Lanyue, Xiao Yunxi, don't worry about the spots. You are both excellent, and getting into the top twenty is no problem at all." Qingzhu lowered her head slightly and smiled at the group of junior brothers and sisters.
"Since we still have some time, how about your senior sister takes you out to have some fun?" she suggested.
"Senior Sister Qingzhu, let's wait here. What if the elders can't find us?" Lanyue smiled as she looked at the distant sacred mountain.
"Alright, let's wait here." Qingzhu took out the wooden table from her spatial ring and prepared a lot of food for the little ones.
A group of people sat down openly and honestly, making those gossiping people across from them feel a little awkward.
Lan Yue munched on a spirit fruit while grinning at the group of people.
When it comes to gossip and juicy gossip, who can compare to her Three Realms Gossip System! With the Gossip System in hand, I have the world at my fingertips!
[Lan Yue: Ahem, let me see what these people are gossiping about. They've been gathered here for so long, there must be some earth-shattering juicy gossip!]
As soon as Lan Yue uttered her thoughts, everyone around her froze, especially the elders who had just been talking. They were all terrified that her secrets would be exposed by these thoughts, and their faces were stiff with fear.
"Lan Yue, Yun Xi, you two are famous now!" Before the gossip had even started, Senior Sister Zou Wan couldn't wait to fly over, eager to drag the group of little ones over immediately.
"What's wrong?" Lan Yue looked up and saw that all her familiar senior brothers and sisters looked excited, with smiles that were brighter than the last.
It's only possible if the female lead becomes famous; what could possibly happen to her?
"Lan Yue, in this competition, the Southern Spirit Sect won first place, and you and Junior Sister Yun Xi tied for first place!"
Zou Wan was beaming, as if she herself had won first place, not the two junior sisters opposite her.
"Tie for first place? You're not talking about the inter-domain competition, are you? Those two haven't even reached the Golden Core stage yet, how could they possibly get first place?"
The slightly overweight elder, who was not far away, quickly ran over to inquire.
"Besides, how could there be a tie for first place? The Northern Region Competition has been held for so many years, and there has never been a tie!"
His tone was extremely anxious, as if he had missed out on a fortune.
"Elder, the rankings of the competition have been announced. This was decided jointly by the elders of both the North and South regions, not by the personal preferences of one or two people. If you want to know the specifics, you may need to ask the Northern Ridge Holy Land."
Zou Wan seemed to realize something, glanced at the elder indifferently, then put on a smile again and came to Lan Yue.
The senior brothers and sisters did not notice that the slightly chubby elder's face turned pale and then purple.
He wanted to say something more, but he didn't dare expose himself to Lan Yue's gaze at this moment. After all, if his dark past were exposed, he would be the one who would lose face! In the end, he slunk away.
None of the disciples of the Southern Spirit Sect paid attention to the people around them; their eyes were all shining as they looked at the little ones.
"Li Bai, your rankings are also quite good, you guys are amazing!" Zou Wan turned to look at the little ones behind her, her face full of joy.
Although she was still ranked behind several other kids, she was very happy.
After all, Lan Yue and Yun Xi don't just represent themselves, they represent the entire Nanling Sect. If the Nanling Sect becomes powerful, won't they, as disciples, also benefit?
It's all the same! And everyone relies on their own abilities. The fact that the junior brothers and sisters in the Foundation Establishment stage have been able to achieve this level is the most impressive!
"I actually got first place too?" Lan Yue was dizzy. She was almost the same as the female lead?
Lan Yue suddenly realized something and quickly looked at Yun Xi beside her, feeling that something was amiss.
Actually, during that time in the Demon Realm Battlefield, besides Yin Xue and the others working extra hard, Lan Yue secretly slacked off for a while and was just watching the drama unfold in her mind.
Moreover, Lan Yue sometimes couldn't bear to see the soldiers being killed by the demons, and on many occasions she asked Yin Xue to go and help.
As for the Rootless Fruit Tree and Little Flower, how many demons can they handle?
So, when they were in the Xuanwu Formation, she secretly threw her identity token over; Yunxi had learned that from her.
Yunxi on the other side shook her head repeatedly. She actually had the same idea. In fact, during the Demon Realm battlefield, she even tricked a group of demons into going to the Rootless Fruit Tree, where the Rootless Fruit Tree pierced through them.
But Yunxi also knew that Lanyue was able to get so many points for her own reasons, after all, Lanyue was very powerful to begin with!
Yunxi was so confident that Lanyue thought she was wrong.
"Let's go, let's go, Junior Sister Lanyue, let's all go to the Holy Mountain! In addition to announcing the rankings, we'll also receive rewards in this competition!"
Just as the children were deep in thought because of their rankings, Zou Wan quickly pulled them to the sacred mountain.
The prize for first place is huge! We can't let our two junior sisters miss out!
A group of people left on flying swords, heading towards the foot of the sacred mountain.
Even now, Lan Yue still finds it hard to believe.
"Lan Yue, don't worry. Actually, there are other reasons why you won first place." Seeing how incredulous she was, Zou Wan quietly pulled her over.
"When we were competing in the Demon Realm, you were very close to that Crimson Demon General, so much so that the elders discovered his whereabouts and brought him out in time."
Of course, this was the excuse that all the elders agreed on, since they couldn't possibly say that this was actually a reward that Lan Yue got by just being a bystander, right?
Isn't this an admission of guilt without being asked?
Lan Yue pondered for a moment, thinking to herself, "No wonder, I never expected there to be this reason."
She was both amused and exasperated; who would have thought that the Crimson Demon General would actually give her some extra points?
They actually ranked her and the female lead in first place.
Forget it, I don't want to think too much about it. Just watching the drama unfold is the easiest way!
Seeing so many people waiting to receive their awards, and some even wanting to see what the first-place winner looked like, they kept crowding around.
Lan Yue quickly hid behind Yun Xi, intending to secretly watch the drama unfold.
As soon as she opened the system panel, Lan Yue looked up in surprise. She seemed to see the Holy Son of Beiling nearby.
