"Phew~"
Hu Ke'er heaved a sigh of relief as the young man in front of her disappeared. If it weren't for his arrogance and over - confidence that he had the victory in hand, she wouldn't have been able to use equipment like the spiritual energy grenade and the portable rocket launcher. The power of the portable rocket launcher was really astonishing. Even Hu Ke'er herself was startled when she used it.
"Junior Sister Ke'er, your rocket launcher is really amazing!"
Yuan Liuer exclaimed in surprise at the outcome.
"Hehe, it's not that great. By the way, Senior Sisters, do you still plan to stay here? Given your current situation... How about I give you the rocket launcher?"
As Hu Ke'er said, she walked up to Chen Tianyi.
"Wait, there seems to be something going on."
Just as Bai Susu was about to say something in response to Hu Ke'er's words, she felt a gentle spiritual energy and whispered.
"What's this white light..."
At the same time, Hu Ke'er saw that all of them were covered in white light.
"Ugh—"
As soon as Hu Ke'er's voice faded, the white light became extremely dazzling. When the white light dissipated again, they had returned to the square where the portal was before.
"Are we back?"
Hu Ke'er looked around. Seeing Yuan Liuer and Bai Susu beside her, she was slightly stunned.
"Yeah."
Yuan Liuer nodded gently.
"Hurry and save Senior Brother Chen! Eh... Where's Senior Brother Chen?"
Just as Hu Ke'er was about to find someone to treat Chen Tianyi, she found that he wasn't beside her.
"Could Senior Brother Chen still be in the Xuankong Secret Realm? No, I have to go and save him!"
With that, Hu Ke'er rushed towards the previous portal without hesitation.
"What are you doing, niece?"
The voice of the sect - master's junior uncle suddenly sounded. He waved his hand slightly, and the portal quickly shrank.
"I'm going to save Senior Brother Chen!"
The portal was right in front of her, but it was shrinking rapidly. Without thinking, Hu Ke'er dived forward.
"I must make it in time!"
"Bang!"
Unfortunately, the portal completely disappeared the moment Hu Ke'er's fingers were about to touch it, and she slammed her head hard on the ground.
"Senior Brother Chen!"
"Niece, calm down first. Chen Tianyi has been sent for treatment."
Seeing Hu Ke'er's state, the sect - master's junior uncle said softly.
"Really? Where is Senior Brother Chen now?"
Hearing the sect - master's junior uncle's words, Hu Ke'er asked.
"Really. Wait until I finish speaking, and then you go find your master and you'll know."
The sect - master's junior uncle said softly.
"Okay."
Hu Ke'er bit her lip and softly replied in agreement.
"Alright, everyone here must be curious as to why our inner - sect test was cut short after just one day and you were all teleported out, right?"
The sect - master's junior uncle tapped his toe and glided to the center in front of the square, addressing the disciples who had been teleported out.
"Actually, there was an accident during this test, and it was because of this accident that the inner - sect test was accelerated."
The sect - master's junior uncle's eyes swept across the crowd below and said softly.
"You should have noticed that there are very few people left standing below. Just now, you were the only remaining disciples in this inner - sect test who were still able to fight. So, I hereby announce that all the disciples present will be promoted to the inner courtyard!"
"Great!"
"Wow, really!"
"..."
Hearing the sect - master's junior uncle's words, many disciples began to cheer.
"These are your inner - courtyard tokens. Please keep them properly."
The sect - master's junior uncle smiled slightly, then waved his hand gently. Dozens of black rays shot out and landed in everyone's hands.
"I just want to know where Senior Brother Chen is..."
Without even looking at the inner - courtyard token, Hu Ke'er tossed it into her storage bag.
"Alright, all of you go back and rest well. You can report to the inner courtyard with your tokens in a few days!"
After saying that, the sect - master's junior uncle turned into a blur and disappeared in front of everyone.
"Finally finished!"
Seeing the sect - master's junior uncle disappear, Hu Ke'er quickly grabbed Yuan Liuer, who was jumping up and down excitedly beside her.
"Senior Sister Liuer, Senior Sister Bai Susu is injured. Can you give me a ride to the Flying Tiger Hall?"
"Sure, no problem!"
Hearing Hu Ke'er's words, Yuan Liuer nodded and then flew towards the Flying Tiger Hall on her flying sword.
"Master, Master!"
Hu Ke'er got off the flying sword and rushed into the Flying Tiger Hall, but she couldn't find her master at all.
"Could it be that Master is already beside Senior Brother Chen?"
Not finding her master, Hu Ke'er frowned in worry.
"Don't be anxious, Junior Sister Ke'er. Since the sect - master's junior uncle said that Senior Brother Chen is fine, he must be okay. Maybe your master will come back if you wait here for a while!"
Yuan Liuer softly comforted her.
"But I'm still so worried about Senior Brother Chen!"
Thinking of Chen Tianyi's unconscious state before, Hu Ke'er's face was full of anxiety.
"At least let me see Senior Brother Chen's current situation with my own eyes!"
"Well, actually, many other fellow disciples who couldn't continue fighting were also teleported back. According to previous practice, they should all have been sent to our Red Tiger Peak for treatment."
"I see. Then Senior Sister Liuer, take me there quickly!"
"Okay."
Hearing Hu Ke'er's words, Yuan Liuer nodded. Then the two of them flew on their flying swords to the medical hall on Red Tiger Peak.
"See, Junior Sister Ke'er. I told you that the injured disciples were all sent here for treatment."
As soon as they entered the medical hall, they saw many injured disciples lying on the beds.
"There are so many people. Where is Senior Brother Chen?"
Hu Ke'er glanced around. There were at least four or five hundred people here.
"Junior Sister Ke'er, wait here. I'll go and ask if there's any news about Chen Tianyi."
With that, Yuan Liuer quickly ran to the door and asked a young girl. After a while, Yuan Liuer ran back with a pale face and shook her head at Hu Ke'er.
"Senior Brother Chen is not here."
"How could this be?!"
Hearing Yuan Liuer's words, Hu Ke'er was stunned and looked a bit lost.
"You don't think Senior Brother Chen..."
"It's okay. Maybe Senior Brother Chen was seriously injured and is being treated somewhere else. We should trust the sect - master's junior uncle. Since he said Senior Brother Chen is okay, he must be okay!"
"No, I'm still worried!"
Hu Ke'er shook her head and then ran outside.
"Where are you going, Junior Sister Ke'er?"
Seeing Hu Ke'er run out, Yuan Liuer flew on her flying sword to catch up.
"I'm going to find the sect - master's junior uncle and get to the bottom of this!"
"Alright. I really can't do anything about you."
Yuan Liuer's flying sword hovered in front of Hu Ke'er, and she reached out her hand.
"Come on. I'll give you a ride!"
"Thank you, Senior Sister!"
