The Tempestuous Consort – Wilfully Pampered by the Beastly Highness Chapter 421 - Gu Nansheng's Generosity

Chapter 421: Gu Nansheng’s Generosity
“Thank you very much for what you did last time.” Gu Nansheng did not mention the incident of that night, so Feng Tianlan also pretended that it didn’t happen.
“I am also in opposition to Tu Xiupei.” Gu Nansheng’s gaze lingered over her empty shoulder indifferently. “Where’s your stupid cat?”
Compared to Tu Xiupei, this Feng Tianlan was more pleasing to the eye. As for the incident of that night, she had decided it was nothing worth mentioning.
A smile tugged at the corners of Feng Tianlan’s mouth. “Little Furball is not a cat.” Must less a stupid cat!
Just as Gu Nansheng was about to say something, she spotted the long queue by the stage. “Ah, the test for newcomer’s list has begun.”
Feng Tianlan looked in the same direction. The newcomer’s list was a ranking of each year’s new disciples’ spiritual force from the highest to the lowest. The top three would be taken as direct disciples. The next twenty would be taken as inner disciples while the others could only be external disciples.
“For you.”
Hearing Gu Nansheng speak in an arrogant yet generous tone, Feng Tianlan couldn’t help but frown. She caught sight of a Spiritual Crystal resting on Gu Nansheng’s palm. She looked up at her with slight confusion. “For me?”
“I’ve heard that you are useless. I’m afraid you might be ranked among the last and become an external disciple. If that happens, I wouldn’t be able to use you to piss Tu Xiupei off. Absorb this Spiritual Crystal now and you will get into the top twenties no matter what. When you become an inner disciple, I will guide you personally.”
Upon hearing Gu Nansheng’s words, Feng Tianlan finally understood what the previous little lady had meant. Despite her arrogance, Eldest Senior Sister was very kind-hearted…
Indeed she was kind-hearted. She even gave Feng Tianlan a rare Spiritual Crystal.
“Take it. I am someone from Yanyue Building, don’t embarrass me.” Gu Nansheng felt a bit uneasy after being stared at for so long. She forcefully folded the Spiritual Crystal into Feng Tianlan’s hand and gave her a push towards the queue. Then, she left abruptly.
Luo Yunzhu joined the queue behind Feng Tianlan. “Tianlan, what did Eldest Senior Sister give you?”
“Spiritual Crystal.” Feng Tianlan held up the cold Spiritual Crystal in her hand as she looked around for Gu Nansheng who was now surrounded by many. Her thoughts suddenly turned complicated. Even if she was kind-hearted, she was being overly-kind.
Could she be the same as Lin Shuyin who fawned over her for her own personal motives?
However, it wasn’t exactly like that because Gu Nansheng’s generous attitude was not very likable. Besides, Gu Nansheng had spoken to Feng Tianlan with a straightforward attitude. Even her emotions were written all over her face.
Luo Yunzhu was stunned. “This is too generous. Could she have had a motive?”
Even among the Flying Frost Pavilion, a Spiritual Crystal isn’t a common item. Giving her one would be considered too generous, to the point of disbelief.
Feng Tianlan shook her head slightly and kept the Spiritual Crystal away. She decided to return it after the test.
In a blink of an eye, it was her turn for the spiritual force test. In front of her was a two-meter tall jade tablet, labeled “Newcomer’s List”. Only the top ten names would be shown on the tablet, while the first place would appear to be engraved in gold.
“Write your name on this jade tablet with your spiritual power. Your ranking will be shown after half an hour.” The person in front handed her a small jade tablet made of a special white jade.
Feng Tianlan took it and wrote her name as requested on the jade tablet with her Fire Element. Her name appeared on its top-left corner.
After Feng Tianlan wrote her name, the person turned to the next-in-line. “Next.”
Luo Yunzhu finished writing her name in an instant as well. She followed Feng Tianlan, playing with her jade tablet, and exclaimed, “I thought it will be a test similar to the Academy’s but it turned out to be just claiming a jade tablet! There’s even a ranking system. It is so highfalutin, no wonder everyone fights to come in, even as just an external disciple. I really want to know if you will be ranked number one!
