I Just Wanted to Live, but I Somehow Became Better Than the Main Character

Chapter 49: Good Drawing

Long Tian originally hadnt planned to get involved, but he was just way too curious about Ye Yong, so he sat down in a corner and cultivated [Chaotic Origin Divine Art] for a short while. When Ye Yong finished painting, Long Tian focused his eyesight on the painting as much as he could. He felt his soul being shaken with just one look at the painting.

Genius! Absolute genius! The Fallen Immortal Elder exclaimed, full of praise for Ye Yong. Despite only being in the Foundation Establishment Realm, his music and art have already reached the border of the realm of Dao. Better than many Nascent Soul Realm cultivators! His future is bright and unlimited. If you can, you should try and befriend him.

While Long Tian did admire Ye Yong, he wasnt very willing to befriend Ye Yong. This was because he was very prideful, and prideful people didnt really like to be with people better than them. It would be a different story if Long Tian had something that could rival Ye Yong, but since Ye Yong was better than him in everything, it was unacceptable to him. Putting it this way, Long Tian wasnt really unwilling to befriend Ye Yong, but rather, too embarrassed and ashamed to befriend Ye Yong.

The Fallen Immortal Elder could pretty much tell what Long Tian was thinking. Its fine, music and art arent really useful to you. You dont have to feel down either; you are also very talented and have a lot of potential. Your future achievements can completely surpass him. Take alchemy for example- you are on par with rank 2 alchemists. There are hardly any Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators that could do the same.

Mhmm! Long Tians eyes were filled with fighting spirit. He didnt know music or art, and his cultivation wasnt as high as Ye Yongs. However, he knew alchemy, and he had a Chaotic Physique. In the future, once he improved it and turned it into the Chaotic Origin Divine Physique, he would become even stronger. Ye Yong is amazing now, but I can do the same in the future and become even better than him!

Good drawing Yi Bai said after staring at the painting a while, nodding stiffly. You have the qualifications to join our Music and Art Hall. But whether or not youll actually be able to join is up to our hall master. In actuality, however, Yi Bai was planning to go and beg the Hall Master to have Ye Yong join the Music and Art Hall.

Being such a genius, it doesnt matter if hes joining our hall with an impure purpose. So what if hes aiming for the female cultivators in our hall? Actually, its even better if thats the case. If it wasnt because there were so many people present, Yi Bai would have already asked Ye Yong whether or not he already had someone he liked.

All the disciples of the Music and Art Hall, as well as the new female disciples who were qualified to join the Music and Art Hall were looking at Ye Yong with glowing eyes.

Everyone knows that the tallest trees get the most sunlight. There is no hope for you women who are not qualified to be in the small hall as Young Master Ye.

The female cultivators who hadnt passed the assessment of the Music and Art Hall all had ugly expressions. If they had known, they would have chosen to learn music or art. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Ye Yong kept a humble smile on his face the whole time. No one was able to tell just how happy he actually was. It feels so good to show off, especially in front of so many beautiful senior sisters. Its too bad that they arent heroines. I have no choice but to prioritize heroines.

Ye Yong rolled up the painting and handed it to Qin Shi Meng. For you.

Qin Shi Mengs maid was already looking at Ye Yong with glowing eyes filled with stars. Qin Shi Meng wasnt someone who would have delusions about someone, but she was still shocked somewhat speechless by Ye Yong.

First, there was the 7-colored foundation. Then there were music and art skills. She once again felt that Ye Yong was a stranger and not the Ye Yong that she originally knew.

Thank, thank you, Qin Shi Meng said. She didnt try to reject it as the painting contained traces of Dao, which would be beneficial to her cultivation. You never told me that you know all this.

You havent tried to get to know me before either, no? Ye Yong knew that his performance was too astonishing and had far exceeded Qin Shi Mengs knowledge and expectations.

The younger generation of the Ye Family all had their mouths wide open in shock.

If it was someones first time meeting Ye Yong, then they would probably think that Ye Yong was just that amazing and that talented. However, those who knew him before, especially those who were familiar with him, would be extremely surprised and amazed.

Imagine an online friend group full of males shouting seggs every day. In this group, there was a person frequently shouting charge and seggs joyfully. One day, this person accidentally exposed himself and revealed that he was actually a cute girl and couldnt charge. Just imagine how shocked the other group members would be, and how crazy they would be after they recovered from their shock.

That was how Ye Yongs female cousins were looking at him.

You guys handle the rest. Well go back and report to the hall master, Yi Bai said, looking at the other Golden Core realm female cultivators in the Music and Art Hall. They understood what Yi Bai was thinking and left with her to go back to the hall first.

Why were they going back first? They were going to beg their hall master to allow Ye Yong to join without testing him. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

After they left, Lu Xiao Xiao and the other female cultivators from the Music and Art Hall resumed testing the rest of the female cultivators who wanted to join. A total of 24 female cultivators had passed and were allowed to join the hall. All in all, it was a good result, and with the addition of these new female disciples, the number of people in the Music and Art Hall had finally surpassed 100. Of course, the most important thing was that Ye Yong would join their hall!

The junior sisters with the lowest cultivations were so happy that they almost shed tears. After being bullied for being the weakest for so long, they were finally going to become senior sisters and be able to bully newcomers.

We finally made it.

The Music and Art Hall wasted everyones time, but since they got to see the female cultivators from the Music and Art Hall, the senior brothers anger towards Ye Yong had subsided, though they still didnt like him, as he had taken all the spotlight that night. However, they couldnt do anything, since if they dared to badmouth Ye Yong right now, the female cultivators would flame them immediately and Ye Yong wouldnt even have to do anything.

As the day dawned, Lu Xiao Xiao and the others started to make the finishing touches and packed everything up. They took out their flying artifacts and expressed their wishes to bring Ye Yong back to the Music and Art Hall.

Female cultivators flying artifacts were usually small because they were focused on appearance and werent made with the intention to carry more than one person. As such, no matter who Ye Yong chose to ride the flying artifact with, there would be skin-to-skin contact.

Who said that only males would try to take advantage of females? The opposite could also happen. To put it bluntly, it really just depended on how attractive someone was.

Ye Yong thanked them for the offer and kindly rejected them. While he did enjoy showing off in front of females and gaining their favorability, he still had to maintain a proper persona in his daily life.

His main targets were the heroines, and although he didnt have to ignore the side female characters, they had less of a priority compared to the heroines. However, he couldnt know for sure whether or not these side characters would carry hidden plots or something. After all, he was in a real world, and the world was constantly with every action he took, while the events in the novel had already happened and wouldnt change.

For example, if he had agreed to one of them, Wu Xue might get jealous, or Qin Shi Meng might think that he was a flirty, dirty scumbag.

Even if their favorability doesnt drop, what about Liang Xiao Rou, who just got added to the favorability rating list? She eh? Without Ye Yongs knowledge, Liang Xiao Rous favorability rating had already risen to 20, and her attitude toward Ye Yong was [Very Curious].

Because Wu Xues and Qin Shi Mengs favorability had also been raised, Ye Yong didnt know how many transcend points Liang Xiao Rou gave per favorability point. He also felt a bit cheated because Wu Xue and Qin Shi Meng started out with negative favorability ratings, while Liang Xiao Rou started with a positive favorability rating, so he felt that he had missed out on some transcend points. Because of that, he felt that even if he raised her favorability to the same point as Wu Xue and Qin Shi Meng, Liang Xiao Rou might not give him as much transcend points as Wu Xue and Qin Shi Meng did.

However, since Liang Xiao Rous favorability rating had already been raised, Ye Yong wasnt going to intentionally drop it. Besides, by creating a persona of a cool but humble and polite genius, he would be able to leave a good first impression on heroines that he would meet in the future.

Ye Yong bought a cheap flying artifact from the system store. It was a carpet, like Aladdins magic carpet. After getting Wu Xue on the carpet, he bid goodbye to Qin Shi Meng and the Ye Family members and followed the female cultivators to the Music and Art Hall.

Translators Notes:

. The balcony closest to the water gets the moon[light] first. Basically, those closest to the influential people reap the most benefits. In this case, the female who are in the same hall as Ye Yong have better chances than those who are not.
