Chapter 66 Moving into the inner gate
Shangguan Jiannan's relocation was like throwing a stone into a calm lake, causing ripples.
Along the way, the outer disciples looked at him sideways and whispered to each other, their eyes flickering with envy for Shangguan Jiannan that they could hardly conceal.
He held a long sword with a cold glow in his hand and walked steadily side by side with Manager Li. He simply smiled indifferently in response to the gazes from the people around him. His calmness made him look even more extraordinary.
This road leading to the inner courtyard usually only takes a moment, but today, it seemed to be stretched out, taking nearly half a quarter of an hour.
The moment he stepped into the inner courtyard, the surrounding noise instantly faded away. Shangguan Jiannan couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and his tense nerves relaxed slightly.
He thought to himself: "Inner Courtyard, this is just the starting point."
He walked slowly forward, his eyes passing through the scenery in front of him and falling on the top of the distant mountain. The majestic and magnificent palaces there were as dazzling as stars.
A strong desire surged in his heart: "Elite list, top 20, that is my real stage, the peak I must conquer."
This belief burned like a raging fire in his chest, driving him to keep moving forward.
Senior sister Chu Qingxuan's expectations are like a sword hanging over his head. It is both a pressure and a driving force.
She required herself to be among the top 20 of the elite list within a month so that she could share the joy that belonged to the strong.
For Shangguan Jiannan, this challenge is both an honor and a responsibility.
He knew very well that becoming Yin Wuqing's disciple was a glory that many people dreamed of, and he must not let them down.
"Just wait, just wait!" Shangguan Jiannan muttered to himself, his eyes flashing with determination and fanaticism.
He knows that the road ahead is full of thorns and challenges, but he is ready to face everything.
Passing through a series of exquisite buildings, Shangguan Jiannan, under the guidance of Manager Li, finally arrived at the residence of the inner disciples.
Here, magnificent buildings are arranged in an orderly manner. Although they are not as huge as those on the elite list, they also have their own style.
Looking at the scene before him, Shangguan Jiannan couldn't help but secretly marvel at the difference in treatment between the inner sect disciples and the outer sect disciples.
Here, they not only have independent residences and places to practice, but also have the attentive care of housekeepers and maids, as well as special martial arts coaches to guide their practice.
This kind of treatment made Shangguan Jiannan more determined in his belief: he must work harder, not only to win glory for himself, but also to win honor for his master Yin Wuqing.
As Manager Li and his group continued to move forward, Shangguan Jiannan's steps became more determined.
He knows that the road ahead is still long, but he is ready to meet every challenge and climb every peak.
At this moment, Shangguan Jiannan walked quickly forward, weaving through the bustling crowd.
All around, people were wearing purple robes fluttering. They were the proud inner disciples of the sect; those wearing coarse cloth clothes were the diligent servants. They all looked up and down at this newcomer with strange eyes.
"Tsk tsk, this boy is quite powerful."
"The breath is calm and steady, not something from the pool."
"It seems that our inner sect will have another expert."
...The discussions rose and fell, surging towards Shangguan Jiannan like a tide.
He was calm and composed, walking with firm steps, as if all the noise had nothing to do with him.
In the distance, a majestic and magnificent hall came into view, with yellow walls and red tiles. The towering vermilion gate was more than ten feet wide, showing the majesty and grandeur of the sect.
This is a world of difference compared to the simple courtyard where he lived before.
"Young Master Jiannan, from now on, this will be your residence."
Manager Li's face was filled with joy, his eyes sparkling with excitement, as if he saw hope for the sect's future.
Shangguan Jiannan looked at this magnificent hall, and couldn't help but feel an indescribable joy in his heart.
He came back to his senses, a faint blush appeared on his cheeks, and he looked full of energy, as if he had endless energy.
Under the guidance of Manager Li, the heavy black lacquered door slowly opened, making bursts of roars, as if cheering for Shangguan Jiannan's arrival.
The servants rushed into the hall quickly and orderly and began to get busy.
Shangguan Jiannan walked in leisurely, his eyes slowly swept around, thinking to himself: "Even if I settle down here, it's not a long-term solution."
He was fully aware of the heavy responsibility he shouldered, the tight time schedule and the arduous task.
But he knows better that only by constantly challenging himself can he climb higher mountains.
He encouraged himself secretly, with a determined look on his face.
He would never let go of this opportunity easily.
He wants to prove everything with his own strength and strive to move into the training ground beside the spiritual vein as soon as possible.
While walking in the hall, Shangguan Jiannan's eyes would occasionally linger on certain details, and a solemn look appeared on his face.
He knows that the road ahead is long and arduous, and only by continuous efforts can he reach the other side.
The four maids, Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter, as well as Butler Li, are busy at their respective posts. Their figures and Shangguan Jiannan's firm steps interweave into a vivid picture.
