  It was instantly awkward.

  Shi Tuyu was dumbfounded. He stood there like an idiot.

  ‘Why are you guys here if you aren’t going to congratulate me? Just to say something like that?

  ‘What the heck? You guys are here to crash my ceremony?!

  ‘For that Shi Tuqin?’


  His father walked over at a crucial moment. He said with a neutral tone, “Guys, you’re our guests. We will naturally be polite to you, but this is a ceremony for the young Sect Master. The private business of our sect is not up to outsiders to interfere.”


  “Yeah. The Empath Sect and the White Cloud Sect are so nosy. This is inappropriate.”


  “I can’t believe Shi Tuqin has such good allies. The Empath Sect and the White Cloud Sect are willing to do this for her.”


  “Yeah. If she was alright, her future would’ve been bright.”


  Everyone loved to watch and comment. They gossiped and discussed.

  Qin Zhongshan did not change his facial expression. “Don’t worry, we aren’t going to interfere. We’re only here to talk smack. We want to let you know that we support Shi Tuqin.”


  Bai Chen smiled and said, “We came here to visit the Sect Master. Are we not allowed to visit the Sect Master during the Young Sect Master Ceremony?”


  Then, they went to Shi Tumingri. They saluted and said, “Cultivator Shi, greetings.”


  They truly came here to befriend the Sect Master.

  Shi Tuqin was a study servant of the expert. It was an unimaginable privilege. For example, any drop of ink was more precious than the treasures of an entire sect…


  That was the way it was.

  They admired Shi Tuqin a lot, especially when they witnessed the performance of Qin Manyun, the zither student of the expert. They also wanted to…please Shi Tuqin.

  Shi Tuqin’s rightful place as the young Sect Master was taken away from her. They naturally had to come over and crash the ceremony. They also had to befriend her father!

  Shi Tumingri was pleasantly surprised. He instantly saluted back and said, “Cultivators, I’ve heard so much about you.

  “Do you know my daughter?”


  “Haha, we do, and we also had meals together.”


  Qin Zhongshan continued to say, “Your daughter’s truly the chosen one. Her talents, powers, and capabilities surpass her age. Even I can’t underestimate her. She has a bright future! You have such a wonderful daughter, we’re so envious.”


  “That’s right,” Bai Chen nodded and said with envy. “What more can a man ask for if I have a daughter like that? I see a successful future for the Legendary Beast Sect.”


  They were words of compliment, but Shi Tumingri felt awful and bitter.

  He would think Qin Zhongshan and Bai Chen were there to mock him if it was not for the sincerity in their eyes.

  His daughter was talented, but the compliments were too much. Furthermore, Shi Tuqin was worse than crippled. Their compliments were easily mistaken as mockery.

  However, he felt happy that Shi Tuqin befriended the Sect Masters.

  Shi Tumingri concealed his emotions. He smiled awkwardly and said, “You guys probably don’t know yet, but something happened to my daughter. Otherwise, she would’ve been the young Sect Master.”


  Qin Zhongshan and Bai Chen looked at each other. They almost wanted to laugh.

  ‘It seems like… Sect Master Shi doesn’t know the huge opportunity his daughter encountered. He’ll be mind blown if he knows.’


  They did not tell him straight away. They wanted to prank him. His reaction would be priceless.

  Shi Tuyu constantly eavesdropped at the side. He overheard their conversation and instantly had an idea. He snickered internally.

  He walked over and said, “Seniors, my cousin Shi Tuqin is indeed talented, but she was captured by the Ministry. She survived but was forced to fight her Familiar Beast to death. In the end, she became a Monster. It’s such a shame!”


  He sighed and acted like it was tragic.

  “Who are you? Who are you to interfere with our conversation?”


  “Move. You can’t compare to Shi Tuqin.”


  Qin Zhongshan and Bai Chen waved him off like he was a fly.

  Shi Tuyu did not look happy at all. He was enraged. He screamed internally. ‘You blind old men! Shi Tuqin’s useless now. How can she compete with me? Just you wait, I’ll be too successful for you one day. Don’t underestimate the youth!’


  Then, he silently turned around to welcome his guests.

  Soon, several figures appeared and caused a commotion.

  “Shi Tuqin’s back!”


  “Yikes—the rumors are true. She became a Monster.”


  “Sigh. That’s one less prodigy for the world.”


  “Is that a dog next to her? What’s going on? The dog’s bald with leather shorts?”


  “That dog’s here to make us laugh.”


  Shi Tuqin had already gained a lot of attention. However, Blackie surpassed her. Blackie had a weird appearance and was acting smug with his leather shorts on.

  A Nine-Tailed Fox stood on Blackie and curiously looked around.

  ‘My stupid cousin. I can’t believe you dared to show up. You have the blood of the Sky Wing White Tiger. My Black Tiger will devour you!’


  Shi Tuyu snickered internally. He smiled like a friendly person and welcomed her. “Cousin, long time no see. I miss you so much. I’m so glad you’re back.”


  Blackie suddenly said, “Hey, kid. Watch your kitty. Why is it so arrogant?”


  The Black Tiger had a stare-down with Blackie. The Black Tiger obviously looked down on Blackie.

  ‘Bald dog with leather shorts. Ha.’


  Of course, Blackie could not stand the Black Tiger. He instantly barked.

  Shi Tuyu looked at Blackie. He asked with an unbelievable tone, “You dare speak to me like that?”


  ‘This dog’s delusional. How dare he talk smack in front of my Black Tiger? Doesn’t he feel my Black Tiger’s power?’


  Blackie was entertained. “Why not? Who do you think you are when you have such bad breath?”


  “How dare you?! You crazy dog. How dare you speak to the young Sect Master like that?!”


  One of the bootlickers seized the chance to please Shi Tuyu. He stared at Blackie and said coldly, “Hurry up and kneel. Apologize to the young Sect Master and beg for mercy!”


  Blackie calmly said, “Idiot.”


  “Young Sect Master, this dog’s reckless. I can’t stand it anymore. Please, allow me to teach him a lesson!”


  The bootlicker looked at Blackie with malicious intent and activated his powers.

  The aura of a Quasi-Saint washed over Blackie.

  Then, he stepped out and attacked Blackie with his fist!

  The Power of Law appeared and shone like a rainbow.

  Shi Tuyu calmly watched everything. He had to intimidate Shi Tuqin no matter what!

  Shi Tuyu thought about how Qin Zhongshan and Bai Chen treated him and he got angrier. He would insult Shi Tuqin for her taste in friends after killing the dog!

  Then, he saw the dog lift his paw to counter the fist attack.

  That was when he witnessed a moth being drawn to a flame.

  However, the dog was the flame.

  Bam!

  The fist of the cultivator shattered. The dog’s paw did not stop. Blackie slapped his face and he flew away like an arrow. He crashed into a wall and became a pile of minced flesh.

  “Yikes—terrifying, terrifying!”


  “What just happened? It’s over before I can even react?”


  “So terrifyingly powerful. Don’t judge a dog by its cover.”


  Nobody expected the dog to instantly kill a Quasi-Saint.

  Shi Tuyu was frightened and shocked, too. Then, he shouted, “How dare you cause havoc in the Legendary Beast Sect. Hurry up and kill that dog!”


  “Stop!”


  Someone shouted. Shi Tumingri hurriedly walked over. He sternly said, “This is my daughter’s guest. Who dares to attack?!”


  Qin Zhongshan and Bai Chen also walked over. “This dog’s our friend, too. That cultivator attacked him first. I can assure you it’s his own fault.”


  They glanced at Shi Tuyu in awe. ‘You’re the first person who dares to speak to Lord Dog like that. Ignorance is bliss…’


  Shi Tuyu had an indecisive facial expression. He considered the fact that it was the Young Sect Master Ceremony. He could not make things awkward. So, he complied.

  ‘Calm down. It’s only a crazy dog. Don’t worry about it. There are a lot of chances to kill the dog later!’


  Shi Tumingri passionately greeted Little Fox and the others. He was very friendly toward the friends of his daughter.

  Shi Tuyu and his father could not wait any longer. They hinted at the elder. The elder immediately understood. He announced, “Everyone, thank you for attending the Young Sect Master Ceremony of the Legendary Beast Sect. Since everyone’s here, let’s not delay any further. I hereby announce that the Young Sect Master Ceremony has officially begun!”


  “Next up, let us witness the new young Sect Master of the Legendary Beast Sect, Shi Tuyu!”


  Shi Tuyu enjoyed being stared at by the crowd. He slowly walked toward the stage.

  The emcee almost looked like he wanted to mock someone. He said, “Also, please welcome our ex-young Sect Master, Shi Tuqin, up on stage! She’ll pass the Sect Master token to the new young Sect Master!”


  Everyone instantly looked at Shi Tuqin with mockery, pity, and entertainment.

  Shi Tuqin was fine with it. She studied the cultivation of calligraphy from Li Nianfan. She was calm and steady. She did not care about her body either. She generously walked on stage.

  There was a token quietly laying up there on display. It was only a symbol of status made with nice materials. Other than that, it was useless.

  However, the meaning behind the token was important.

  Forcing Shi Tuqin to hand over the token to Shi Tuyu was torturous.

  Shi Tumingri felt pained watching it off stage.

  The emcee yelled, “Please, complete the handover!”


  Shi Tuqin picked up the token and caressed it.

  Shi Tuyu grinned. He breathed fast and rushed her, “Hurry up, cousin! Time’s precious for everyone.”


  Shi Tuqin looked at Shi Tuyu. She suddenly said, “There’s a tradition for the young Sect Master to hand over the token. The new young Sect Master must defeat the ex young Sect Master!”


  “What?”


  Shi Tuyu thought he misheard it.

  “What does she mean by that? Does she think Shi Tuyu can’t defeat her?”


  “How’s that possible? She must be joking.”


  “She lost her Familiar Beast and was severely injured. I heard that she became a study servant after her trauma. How can she fight?”


  “Is it because she isn’t willing to hand over the young Sect Master token?”


  Everyone felt like Shi Tuqin was being unreasonable. Shi Tumingri slightly frowned and stood up.

  Shi Tuyu laughed. He mocked her and said, “You want to fight me?”


  Shi Tuqin said, “I don’t want you to be the young Sect Master at the moment.”


  Naturally, she was not willing to give up being the young Sect Master. Being the study servant of the expert was better than being the young Sect Master. However, she thought of her father and was suspicious of Shi Tuyu, so she did not want him to become the young Sect Master. That was why she rejected him.

  “You don’t want to?”


  Shi Tuyu snickered. “I worked so hard to get here. It is not up to you! Let’s battle since you can’t accept your fate.”


  Shi Tuqin calmly nodded. “Fine.”


  “She said yes! I can’t believe she said yes!”


  “Are they going to battle? What a mad world!”


  Everyone widened their eyes. They felt like Shi Tuqin was digging her own grave.

  Shi Tumingri hurriedly scolded her, “Qin, don’t be nonsensical!”


  He also felt like his daughter was delusional.

  He wanted to pull Shi Tuqin off stage. However, Qin Zhongshan and Bai Chen stopped him.

  “Don’t worry. Lady Shi’s got this.”


  “Watch closely. She’ll surprise you.”


  The two of them acted mysteriously.

  “You said it. Everyone heard it, too. Don’t blame me for bullying you!”


  Shi Tuyu laughed and gestured with a wave. The Black Tiger leaped to his side and stared at Shi Tuqin like a predator observing its prey.

  “Wait!”


  Blackie suddenly had an idea. He said, “This battle’s so not fun. Do you dare make a bet with me?”


  Shi Tuyu asked, “What do you want to bet?”


  Blackie said something shocking. “I heard that Tiger P*nis is great for health. If you lose, give me that kitty’s Tiger P*nis!”


  The Black Tiger growled and hissed. He roared, “Master, let’s accept the bet. If we win, I want to eat his meat and drink his blood!”


  “Of course, I accept it!”


  Shi Tuyu underestimated Blackie. He scoffed and said, “What a stupid dog. How dare you make a bet like that? Are you tired of being alive?”
