Taking True disciple assessment test

Five days had passed since Wang Chen had helped Li Mei to absorb the fifth order cleansing pill.

Wang Chen was amazed to see the rapid rise in her cultivation, and it appeared that she didn't have any bottleneck.

The pill had done wonders for her body and mind.

As the process finished, Li Mei slowly opened her eyes and was shocked to see that she was covered in a sticky black liquid. The same putrid smell that she had encountered a few days ago while cleaning Wang Chen's cabin filled her nostrils.

But this time, she didn't pass out and could sense that her mind was becoming clearer.

She also felt lighter and more comfortable.

Suddenly, she moved her eyes and saw Wang Chen sitting behind her. His clothes were drenched in the same disgusting black liquid, and he looked exhausted. Li Mei became extremely embarrassed, realizing that Wang Chen had helped her through the process without any concern for himself.

Without a word, she quickly stood up and ran out of the cabin, feeling embarrassed about her own state. As she ran, she could feel her heart pounding in her chest and her face flushing with embarrassment. "How could I be so selfish?" she thought to herself. " I didn't even thank him properly."

Li Mei realized how foolish she had been to run away without properly thanking Wang Chen.

Li Mei knew that whatever pill Wang Chen had given her was likely precious and not easy to obtain.

Even more so for a mortal like her who had little access to such resources. but the fact that it had helped her cultivate so quickly was evidence of its potency. She realized that she needed to face him and show her gratitude.

Despite knowing this, she still couldn't help but feel guilty for running away without properly thanking Wang Chen.

As she walked back to his cabin, her heart raced with nervousness. She rehearsed in her mind what she would say to him, hoping that he would forgive her for her rudeness.

As she walked in, she saw Wang Chen was removing his clothes and preparing to take a bath which she had prepared a few days ago. She couldn't help but stare at his flawless upper body and handsome face, feeling her cheeks flush with embarrassment.

Suddenly, she realized she had been glaring at him for quite some time, and Wang Chen noticed it too. She quickly averted her gaze and looked down.

After a moment of silence, Li Mei finally spoke, "Thank you, master," she said with a serious determination in her eyes. "I know that the pill you gave me is precious, and I am grateful for your kindness. I promise to repay you in any way that I can."

Wang Chen smiled at her words and replied, "I am looking forward to it."

Li Mei felt relieved that he wasn't angry with her, and was grateful for his understanding.

Then he added with a teasing smile on his face, "Do you want to watch me take a bath?"

Hearing this Li Mei's face heated up again, and she turned bright red. She knew that Wang Chen was just joking, but the thought of watching him take a bath was too embarrassing for her.

Without a word, she turned around and ran out of the cabin, her heart pounding in her chest. As she ran, she couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions. On one hand, she was ashamed of her behaviour, but on the other hand, she was grateful to Wang Chen for his kindness and generosity. She knew that she needed to work hard to repay him.

On the other hand, Wang Chen couldn't help but laugh at Li Mei's embarrassment. He found it endearing how flustered she was, and his heart swelled with affection for her.

As much as he wanted to pinch her cheeks and tease her more, he knew he had to control himself. He didn't want to ruin all the progress he had made in gaining her favorability.

Wang Chen took his time in the bath, feeling the warm water wash away his fatigue and tension. As he soaked, he contemplated his future plans.

After done with the bath he changed into a new set of clothes.

Wang Chen murmured to himself as he dried his hair, "I have joined a faction with a strong leader in the sect, and his authority will be my key to success. With his support, I won't have to hide my strength anymore. In fact, if I stand out more, I can gain more authority in the faction and move freely in the sect. This will also help me stand against the protagonist who is gaining more power every day." He adjusted his clothes and looked in the mirror, his eyes filled with determination.

With the security of the faction behind him, Wang Chen felt more confident in standing out and showing his true abilities. He knew that having more authority would mean more freedom to move around the sect and access to more resources, giving him an edge in the competition for power.

With this thought in his mind he moved toward Minguan hall where he would take the true disciple test.

As he approached the hall, he could see other cultivators gathered around, some with nervous expressions on their faces, others with looks of confidence and determination.

Wang Chen scanned the room, looking for the person in charge of the test. He spotted an elder sitting at a desk in the corner who was none other than Elder Quin, who had taken his inner assessment test. Wang made his way toward him.

"Elder Quin, I'm here to take the True Disciple assessment test," Wang said as he cupped his hands.

Hearing Wang Chen's voice, Elder Quin opened his eyes and looked toward Wang Chen in surprise. He took a long look at him and said, "It seems like those rumors about you were true."

"What rumors ?" Wang Chen asked in confusion.
