I Just Wanted To Live but I Somehow Became Better Than the Protagonist

I Just Want to Live a Good Life but Surpassed the Protagonist – 46 Who is that?

After the elder from the Law Enforcement Hall finished explaining the sect rules, it was time for each hall to accept new disciples.

As an inner disciple of the Sword Pavilion Hall, Bai Song naturally came to attract people. He demonstrated a set of Earth Grade sword techniques for everyone. It was indeed remarkable for a Crystallization cultivator to be able to practice Earth Grade sword techniques to the level of Minor Mastery, earning him a lot of attention.

The inner disciples of the other halls also showed off their skills, creating a lively atmosphere.

“Which hall do you plan to join?” Qin Shimeng saw that Ye Yong’s gaze was not on the Sword Pavilion Hall, but was searching for something everywhere, and was quite curious.

“Sound and Painting Hall.” Ye Yong looked around and did not see anyone from the Sound and Painting Hall for the time being.

“Sound and Painting Hall?” Qin Shimeng was even more puzzled. She remembered that Ye Yong cultivated the sword just like her. When they got engaged, the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty said that they were a pair of immortal lovers who would be able to combine their swords in the future.

The Sound and Painting Hall, as its name suggested, cultivated music and painting.

It was not that Qin Shimeng looked down on music and painting, but rather that they were too difficult to cultivate, and were unpopular choices.

“Can you tell me why?” As a friend, Qin Shimeng felt that she should understand the reason clearly and advised Ye Yong not to waste his precious time and venture into areas he did not understand.

“Because I like it.” Ye Yong knew that Qin Shimeng was thinking for him, but he was also thinking for himself.

“If that’s the case…fine.” Just one word of “like” directly dispelled all the words that Qin Shimeng wanted to say. She could not stop Ye Yong from choosing what he liked, could she?

“I will choose the Sword Pavilion Hall.” Qin Shimeng had cultivated the sword for 10 years, so it was impossible for her to change to cultivating music and painting like Ye Yong.

“It suits you very well.” Ye Yong would not persuade Qin Shimeng to enter the Sound and Painting Hall with him, because Qin Shimeng would only have opportunities if she stayed in the Sword Pavilion Hall. Ye Yong did not dare to change too many details, least the future be completely different from the novel he had read.

Qin Shimeng and her personal maid went to the Sword Pavilion Hall. Liang Xiaorou was in charge of registering female disciples. With a single glance, she scared away all the male cultivators who wanted to approach Qin Shimeng.

Not to mention that Liang Xiaorou had a cultivation base of Crystallization Layer 8, even if she didn’t, her Nascent Soul late father was right there. Who dared to be disrespectful to her?

“Senior Sister Liang, may I ask where the Sound and Painting Hall is?” Seeing that Ye Yong was still looking for the Sound and Painting Hall, Qin Shimeng asked for him.

“Sound and Painting Hall? It’s in that corner. Because no one has joined in the past, their hall just found a disciple to deal with it. Are you interested?”

“Slightly.” Qin Shimeng was not a silly white sweet, so she would not say that Ye Yong wanted to join. Previously, she had heard that Liang Xiaorou wanted him to go to the Sword Pavilion Hall. If she revealed that Ye Yong wanted to go to the Sound and Painting Hall now, wouldn’t that be the same as asking Liang Xiaorou to find trouble with Ye Yong?

Liang Xiaorou did not suspect anything. In fact, she was also quite interested in the Sound and Painting Hall. Unfortunately, she only knew how to listen to music, not how to play it. Otherwise, she might have entered the Sound and Painting Hall when she was younger.

After registering her basic information, Qin Shimeng returned to Ye Yong’s side and told him where the Sound and Painting Hall was.

“Thank you.” Ye Yong originally wanted to ask someone, but there were all Jin recipes around, so it was impossible for them to know. Liang Xiaorou was over there, glancing at him from time to time. If he asked other senior brothers or sisters, she would definitely come over to join in the fun.

Knowing that Ye Yong would not join the Sword Pavilion Hall, with her little pepper temper, how could she agree? At that time, it was possible that she would forcibly make Ye Yong sign up for the Sword Pavilion Hall.

Given the novel mentioned that the protagonist had joined the Sword Pavilion Hall without mentioning the Sound and Painting Hall, these details compose reality, so Ye Yong had to find out for himself. Now that Qin Shimeng had informed him, it saved him time.

While Liang Xiaorou was busy registering female disciples, Ye Yong arrived at the corner where the Sound and Painting Hall was located.

There was a young female cultivator there who was reading a book. Compared to the popularity of the other halls, the Sound and Painting Hall seemed to have no intention of recruiting anyone at all.

This female cultivator had a beautiful appearance, fair skin, and long hair flowing over her shoulders. She was very focused on reading.

“Senior Sister,” Ye Yong called out.

The female cultivator looked up and saw Ye Yong, a handsome man, and quickly put away her book, revealing a smile. “What is it, Junior Brother? Are you asking for directions?”

“No, I want to join the Sound and Painting Hall.”

“Oh, to join the Sound and Painting Hall, let me think where… Hmm? Wait! Join the Sound and Painting Hall?” The female cultivator’s eyes widened, as if she had heard some incredible news. “You, are you sure?”

“Sure.”

“What about that Junior Sister?” The female cultivator looked at Qin Shimeng.

Qin Shimeng shook her head. “I want to join the Sword Pavilion Hall.”

It was a bit of a pity, but it was rare to have a male disciple who wanted to join the Sound and Painting Hall, and he was also a handsome one. The female cultivator was already very satisfied. She quickly took out the registration book . “What is your name? What is your cultivation level? What color is your Foundation Establishment?”

“Ye Yong…”

Ye Yong only said his name, and the female cultivator exclaimed, “It’s you! You’re Ye Yong! That Ye Yong!”

“Although I don’t know which one you’re talking about, it should be that one.”

“Ye Yong? The Ye Yong with the seven-colored Foundation Establishment?” Because of the female cultivator’s exclamation, it attracted the attention of the senior brothers and sisters from the other halls.

The news of Ye Yong testing out a seven-colored Foundation Establishment had already spread throughout the entire Great Zhou Dynasty and even the Eastern Region.

A seven-colored Foundation Establishment had not appeared in the Eastern Region for over a hundred years. When Ye Yong took the airship to the Tianluo Sect, his name had already spread throughout the cultivation world and the secular world.

Liang Xiaorou frowned when she heard the commotion. “What is that guy doing in the Sound and Painting Hall?”

She was just about to pass the registration work to another fellow disciple and go over to investigate when the female cultivator from the Sound and Painting Hall wrote something down on the registration book with lightning speed.

“Don’t tell me he wants to join the Sound and Painting Hall!” Liang Xiaorou had a bad feeling. Although she was petite, she was very fast. With a swoosh, she arrived next to the female cultivator.

Sure enough, she saw Ye Yong’s name on the registration book for the Sound and Painting Hall disciples.

“Why are you joining the Sound and Painting Hall? Do you know music or painting?” Before Liang Xiaorou could start digging into Ye Yong’s background, he slipped away.

It’s not that the disciples of the Sword Pavilion Hall couldn’t go to the Sound and Painting Hall to find people, but it was definitely not as convenient as being in the same hall.

“I know a little bit of both.” Ye Yong smiled slightly.

He was a man with a system. Just now, he had spent 50,000 reversal points in the system store to purchase the complete sets of [Musical Compendium] and [Painting Compendium]. Now, he was a man with over 200,000 reversal points. He no longer had to buy only the first volume like before.

The Musical Compendium cost 20,000, while the Painting Compendium was more expensive at 30,000. These were all considered ‘basic’ content. There was also ‘advanced’ content such as [Music into Painting] and [Painting into Music], and even ‘high -level’ knowledge related to immortal music. To buy the entire series, he would need millions of reversal points, but if he bought and mastered them all, Ye Yong would be considered a music or painting immortal.

The ‘basic’ content he had mastered now was also more advanced than the basic content of ordinary cultivators.

“You know a little bit of both?” Before the senior brothers and sisters tested the disciples, they had investigated the basic information of some of the more promising disciples. Ye Yong was clearly a sword cultivator. No one around him cultivated music or painting , so how could he know? “I think you don’t know anything at all.”

“No, no one here knows more than me.”

After mastering the complete sets of [Musical Compendium] and [Painting Compendium], Ye Yong was confident that his professional knowledge was now on par with Nascent Soul Stage music and painting cultivators.

The senior brothers and sisters present were at most Golden Core Stage, and they did not cultivate music or painting.

So Ye Yong was not bragging. He really did know more than everyone present.
