Immortality Begins by Taking Care of Master’s Wife – Chapter 66

Chapter 66

Chapter 66: Concubine Selection Competition

Azure Cloud Sect.
Outer Sect Martial Arts Plaza.

This was the place where outer sect disciples usually practiced, but practicing martial arts wasn’t like doing radio calisthenics; it didn’t require everyone to gather together.

Although there were people practicing martial arts here on ordinary days, the number wasn’t large.

However, early this morning, over a thousand disciples had gathered here, as if for a large-scale assembly, and ninety-nine percent of them were women.

“My goodness, so many people?”

Xiao Shi and his good friend Lin Jing arrived here and were dumbfounded as they looked at the sea of beautiful women in the Martial Arts Plaza.

This was almost comparable to a sect-wide martial arts competition.

“This is Senior Brother Zhou choosing maidservants. For ninety-nine percent of the miscellaneous duties disciples and outer sect disciples, this is a chance to rise to the top!”

Lin Jing looked at the group of senior and junior sisters ahead who were clearly dressed up, his eyes filled with envy.

He and Xiao Shi were just miscellaneous duties disciples.

“Look, isn’t that Senior Sister Zhao from the inner sect?”

Xiao Shi’s pupils constricted as he pointed at the graceful woman in yellow who stood out from the crowd, his face full of shock.

“I didn’t expect Senior Sister Zhao to sign up for the selection!”

Lin Jing felt emotional. He was already nineteen years old, but only at the third level of Body Refinement. It would be difficult for him to even become an outer sect disciple.

If he couldn’t reach the fourth level of Body Refinement before he turned twenty, he would only be able to be sent out to be a manager.

“Senior Brother Zhou is exceptionally talented and handsome. His future achievements are limitless. It’s not just Senior Sister Zhao; there are three other senior sisters from the inner sect!”

Xiao Shi looked at the three beauties standing next to Zhao Shi Rong, feeling emotional.

He and Lin Jing were both from the three great families of Qing He City, and Zhou Chen was also from Qing He County, but their situations were worlds apart.

The gap was too big.

There were quite a few people like Xiao Shi and Lin Jing who were just watching the excitement, but the main focus here was still the female disciples who came to participate in the selection.

“I didn’t expect four senior sisters from the inner sect to come!”

“I’m afraid there’s no hope now!”

“Yeah, senior sisters from the inner sect are actually competing with us for this spot…”

“The pressure from the outer sect senior sisters was already enough, and now even the inner sect senior sisters are here. There’s no way for us miscellaneous duties disciples to survive…”

The women looked at the four inner sect senior sisters ahead, their eyes filled with complex emotions.

Inner sect disciples were all geniuses who had reached the seventh level of Body Refinement before the age of thirty. Most of them had their own pride and rarely participated in the selection of maidservants for True Inheritance Disciples.

After all, their status and talent were not low. If they wanted to curry favor with True Inheritance Disciples, there were other ways.

For example, they would rather marry a True Inheritance Disciple, even if it meant being a concubine.

But very few of them would come to be maidservants.

There had been some in the past.

But there were only one or two at most each time.

This time, four had actually come.

“Senior Brother Zhou is here!”

At some point, a sudden exclamation rang out, and everyone looked up in unison. They saw Zhou Chen, dressed in white and looking unrestrained and elegant, walking towards them.

His movements were light and graceful, as if a crane were dancing. He landed lightly on the high platform of the Martial Arts Plaza, and the entire place fell silent.

“It’s Senior Brother Zhou!”

“Senior Brother Zhou is so handsome!”

“Senior Brother Zhou’s martial arts are amazing. He stepped onto that platform that’s at least three Zhang high with such ease, as if it were just a small step!”

“Ancestor bless me, Senior Brother Zhou choose me!”

“You must choose me, I’m very good at it!”

“I can do anything!”

The disciples looked at him with burning eyes, praying in their hearts.

The male disciples who came to watch the excitement looked at the burning eyes of their senior and junior sisters, and couldn’t help but feel envious.

“This is what a true man should be like!”

Lin Jing clenched his fists, his face full of longing, but when he thought about the fact that he was older than Zhou Chen, but still just a miscellaneous duties disciple at the third level of Body Refinement, the breath he had just taken dissipated instantly.

He was afraid that he would never have this chance in his life.

“Thirty years on the east side of the river, thirty years on the west side, don’t bully the young and poor.”

Xiao Shi patted Lin Jing on the shoulder and comforted him, saying:

“As long as we work hard, we may not be without a chance. There are many late bloomers.” “Moreover, perhaps our opportunity has not yet arrived. A hidden dragon lies in the abyss, and one day, when the wind and clouds meet, it may not be impossible for a carp to transform into a dragon and soar to the heavens!”

“Yes!”

Lin Jing nodded, looking at Zhou Chen on the high platform.

Zhou Chen stood alone on the high platform, overlooking the crowd. Facing those burning eyes, a sense of inexplicable pride rose in his heart.

“No wonder those idols and the like in my past life would become arrogant and do whatever they wanted after becoming famous. They would do things like rape and assault, anything at all…”

Zhou Chen thought to himself. There was a term called “praising someone to death”. If someone was flattered and praised too much, it was easy for them to become arrogant.

“I’m just a True Inheritance Disciple of the Azure Cloud Sect. The world is so big. Let alone now, even if I overthrow the Sect Master, it wouldn’t be anything to the world…”

Zhou Chen secretly warned himself. Facing everyone’s gaze, he smiled slightly and said in a clear voice:
“I am Zhou Chen. I didn’t expect so many people to come today. First of all, I want to thank all the junior sisters for your love. Chen is deeply honored!”

“As you all know, Chen only needs four people. For those who aren’t chosen, it can only be said that Chen has no fate with you, and you have come here in vain. Chen apologizes to all the junior sisters in advance!”

Zhou Chen cupped his hands in apology.

“Senior Brother Zhou, you are too kind!”

“We all came here voluntarily. Even if we aren’t chosen, it’s just that we have no fate. How can we blame Senior Brother Zhou!”

The women quickly spoke up, their favorable impression of Zhou Chen greatly increasing.

If they could see their favorability rating, then there would definitely be a constant stream of “+1 Favorability” popping up above their heads.

Those who could become True Inheritance Disciples were not ordinary people. They were either exceptionally talented, young prodigies, obsessed with martial arts, or had great opportunities.

Therefore, many True Inheritance Disciples had a sense of arrogance. Even those who weren’t arrogant, geniuses always had some quirks and were generally not easy to get along with.

Those who were approachable were few and far between.

For example, Li Chang Hen and Shi Qing Xuan were both cold beauties. They usually had cold expressions and spoke very little. To others, they were arrogant.

Zhou Chen raised his hand slightly, and everyone immediately quieted down.

Zhou Chen took out the list of names and said loudly:

“I won’t waste everyone’s time. Those whose names are called, come forward.”

Everyone’s hearts skipped a beat.

“With my status and cultivation level, how can those outer sect disciples and miscellaneous duties disciples compare? There must be a spot for me!”

Zheng Li Hong, an inner sect disciple, looked at the heroic Zhou Chen on the high platform, feeling very satisfied and confident.

She was originally a concubine-born daughter of the Zheng family. Because of her good talent, she joined the Azure Cloud Sect. Although her family status had greatly improved, she was always overshadowed by the direct descendants of the family.

Because those direct descendants also had good talent, and had better resources since childhood, they also joined the Azure Cloud Sect.

She was willing to lower her status to be Zhou Chen’s maidservant this time, but she didn’t really want to be a maidservant.

She just wanted to use this identity to get close to him and then become his wife.

As for Qin Hong Yu?
A country girl, she was not even worthy of being compared to her.

That kind of lowly woman wasn’t even worthy of being her maidservant!

“Zhao Shi Rong!”

Zhou Chen called out loudly.

“Senior Brother Zhou.”

Zhao Shi Rong stepped forward and bowed gracefully to Zhou Chen, her heart beating a little slower.

Although she was very confident.

She was still nervous and apprehensive before it was confirmed.

Of course.

This was just the preliminary list.

When Zheng Li Hong and the others heard Zhao Shi Rong’s name, they were not surprised.

Zhao Shi Rong was already a famous beauty and an inner sect disciple. Her competitiveness was second to none, and the possibility of her being rejected was very small.

“Yu You Wei!”

“It’s me! I’ve been chosen!”

A beautiful young girl from the outer sect disciples, with a well-endowed chest, was stunned for a moment, then stepped forward excitedly, cupping her hands and bowing:
“You Wei greets Senior Brother Zhou!”

“What’s going on?”

Zheng Li Hong frowned. The list was definitely arranged from inner sect disciples to the back. Why was only Zhao Shi Rong’s name called from the inner sect, and then it went straight to the outer sect disciples?

Could it be that she was rejected?

She couldn’t even compare to an outer sect disciple?
