Chapter 967: Chapter 119 Outer Sect Disciple
“Are you sure you want to apply for the Mount Shu a.s.sessment?” the steward looked at Zhao Yu with some surprise, “To a.s.sess as a menial disciple, you at least need to have reached the seventh level of Body Refinement…”
He knew exactly how Zhao Yu had spent the past three years.
All day long, he was either flirting with the maids or trying to charm old aunties—forever professing love and flirting around without ever being seen seriously cultivating.
“Try it out?”
Zhao Yu smiled and stretched out his hand.
The steward cautioned, “I’ve reached the ninth level of Body Refinement, so if you can’t handle it, just cry out…”
Having said that, the two clasped hands and began to arm wrestle.
Right from the start, the steward used fifty percent of his strength, aiming to teach Zhao Yu a lesson.
Unexpectedly, a strong rebounding force came from the grip.
ReadNovelFull.com“Eh!”
The steward was somewhat surprised; he hadn’t thought Zhao Yu actually had some strength, judging by this alone, he was at least at the fifth or sixth level of Body Refinement.
“Good, I’m going to get serious now. If you can’t take it, just cry out…”
The steward reminded him again, increasing the strength in his grip.
Sixty percent, seventy percent, eighty percent.
When he exerted ninety percent of his strength and found Zhao Yu’s face still relaxed, he was completely shocked.
Unable to save face, the steward used all of his strength.
“Old Zhao, come on, use all your strength…” Zhao Yu said playfully.
This scene utterly astounded the steward.
“You… achieved the ninth level of Body Refinement?”
Being able to match him in strength indicated that Zhao Yu’s power had already caught up with his.
Just as the steward felt Zhao Yu’s strength on his hand increasing, he suddenly withdrew his hand.
“Enough, enough…”
He cursed inwardly, shocked by Zhao Yu’s impressive grip; continuing the match would only bring him shame.
“Steward Zhao, can I apply for the a.s.sessment now?”
“Of course, however, I need to report this to the head of the household…”
The steward left with a complex expression.
He couldn’t understand how Zhao Yu had achieved the ninth level of Body Refinement, particularly given the past three years of apparent non-cultivation.
Nevertheless, now that Zhao Yu had reached the ninth level of Body Refinement, he was eligible to apply for the Mount Shu a.s.sessment.
After all, considering Zhao Yu was not yet twenty years old and had achieved the ninth level of Body Refinement, he met the standard for Mount Shu.
A day later, the second miss returned, and upon understanding the situation, she summoned Zhao Yu.
“You big silly, I can’t believe you’ve reached the ninth level of Body Refinement!”
Zhao Linger was somewhat surprised and full of emotion, “No one expected that the little boy from before would now grow up to be so tall…”
She looked up at the young man who was now a head taller than herself, smiled, and pretended to be worldly-wise: “Now that you’ve reached the ninth level of Body Refinement, it would be such a waste not to attend the Mount Shu a.s.sessment…”
“You belong to the Zhao family, having lived here since birth. Once you enter Mount Shu, you will have brothers and sisters of the Zhao family to look after you…”
She thought for a moment, then said, “You currently don’t have a name…”
“Then I will bestow upon you the Zhao surname and the given name ‘Yu.’ How about that?”
Zhao Yu was taken aback when he heard this.
He couldn’t help but feel a strange coincidence.
He was originally named Zhao Yu, having come here as a lowly fool with no name.
Now having proven his worth, he was being bestowed the name Zhao Yu.
The coincidence was as if someone was orchestrating everything.
Could it be the operation of some predestined power at work again?
Having experienced so many years, Zhao Yu felt that everything in the world was interconnected.
Seeing Zhao Yu standing there stunned, Zhao Linger’s mouth curled slightly. In her view, no servant would remain indifferent when being named.
Clearly, the big silly was overwhelmed by the act of being granted a name, probably too excited to speak.
“I heard you really like Tiger Girl?”
“Tiger Girl?!”
Zhao Yu was astonished; aside from Tiger Girl’s letters every three months, he had hardly seen her in the past three years.
This was the first time he had learned about Tiger Girl from Zhao Linger.
“Once you pa.s.s the a.s.sessment, you will become an acknowledged disciple. If you can become an outer sect disciple within half a year, then I will approve of your relations.h.i.+p with Tiger Girl!”
“Not only that, but I will also arrange for you to serve close to me, which will allow you to interact with Tiger Girl at close quarters!”
Zhao Linger had long been aware of the situation between Tiger Girl and the big silly, but she never expected that he would also reach the ninth level of Body Refinement.
Her previous objection to their unity was out of fear that Tiger Girl would be distracted, but now, seeing that the big silly also had talent, it was perfect to enlist him under her banner as well.
Zhao Yu pondered for a moment and then bowed his head in thanks.
After all, according to his role, he was merely a servant of Zhao Mansion. Being named and given the opportunity to serve close to the legitimate heirs was normally a cause for excitement.
Fortunately, Zhao Linger knew the big silly was not all there in the head. Seeing his unmoved reaction did not surprise her too much.
“Very well, pack your things, and we’ll head up the mountain together later!”
“Yes!”
To say “pack” was an exaggeration; there wasn’t much he needed to bring, as the mountain had everything necessary for life.
Zhao Yu had not been completely in the dark about the disciples from Mount Shu.
In the city, many disciples who descended from Mount Shu either stayed temporarily for missions.
But most were menial disciples coming down the mountain to resupply.
Of course, while in the city, these menial disciples enjoyed the envy and admiration of many, which was a stark contrast to their lowest-tier status on the mountain.
