“I’m in the South State,” Xie Yanqiu declared, “After wrapping up a matter here, I’ll head to Lin City. The night of that brat’s group formation is approaching.

You should come and watch it too.”

The man on the other end of the line hesitated briefly before making a strike for Xie Yu, “Alright, then.”

Once again, their plans for a private world together were dashed.

“Ah, and we need to record a video message for him, featuring family members cheering him on,” Xie Yanqiu suddenly slammed her hand on the table, her tone taking on a mix of annoyance and jest. “And it’s all your fault, looking so handsome. You passed those genes to your son, and now he’s just as unsettling!”

The call was abruptly cut off.

The man, bewildered by the unexpected scolding, pondered silently.

…Isn’tXie Yu more like Xie Yanqiu?

But he let the thought go. It wasn’t important.

What mattered was that he needed to put on another strike for Xie Yu.

Completely oblivious to the double trouble brewing for him, Xie Yu was at that moment being reprimanded by Si Fuqing.

After filming the behind-the-scenes footage, the trainees returned to the camp.

Without the cameras, Xie Yu had no choice but to listen submissively to Si Fuqing’s questioning.

Si Fuqing, leisurely rolling up her sleeves, asked, “Now tell me, dear student Xie Yu, how many times have you lost control of your power?”

Xie Yu furrowed his brows but responded openly, “Three times. The last was five years ago.”

His candid reply somewhat surprised Si Fuqing, “You’re telling me just like that? Aren’t you afraid of what I might do to you?”

Losing control of power was extremely dangerous for evolved beings, posing a threat to their lives.

Of course, some evolved beings released their power deliberately to seek revenge on others.

“Since Teacher Si is aware of evolved beings, I thought I’d just be upfront about it, ” Xie Yu replied, his demeanor relaxed. “Are you interested in joining the

Supernatural Management Bureau, also known as the Spirit Alliance?”

Si Fuqing’s expression changed in an instant, becoming stoic, “Not interested. I’m just a salted fish, enjoy laying flat.”

She would willingly hand herself over to the Supernatural Management Bureau?

She must be out ofher mind.

“Three times is a rather dangerous number,” Si Fuqing mused. “Let me see if I can help you suppress it a bit.”

Xie Yu’s pupils constricted sharply, his gaze turning intense, “You have a way, Teacher Si?”

This was a problem even the Evolved Beings Alliance found challenging.

Globally, fewer than ten evolved beings could perfectly control their power.

Even Xie Yanqiu had lost control before.

“Maybe I do, maybe I don’t,” Si Fuqing propped her chin, a slight smile playing on her lips. “Don’t try to fish for information; you won’t find out anything from me.”

Xie Yu raised his hands in another gesture of surrender, “Alright.”

“Teacher Si,” a staff member knocked on the dance studio door, speaking respectfully, “The rankings have been announced.”

Si Fuqing looked up, snapping her fingers, “Here we go.”

The third performance had concluded successfully yesterday, and today the rankings of the twenty-two trainees were announced.

The top three were Xie Yu, Ye Qingyou, and Xu Xiyun.

Lu Yan had not only been squeezed out of the top three but was also increasingly falling behind the third place.

At this stage of the show, the rankings were more or less set, and the night of the group’s formation wouldn’t bring much change.

Xu Xiyun specifically borrowed a phone to report his recent achievements to Grandma Xu.

No sooner had he ended the call than a news alert popped up on his phone.

#Ming Wenxian, Blacklisted#Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by ɴovelꜰɪre.ɴet

The word ‘explosive’ followed the hashtag.

“Holy cow!” Xu Xiyun’s eyes widened in shock. “Ming Wenxian has been blacklisted. What on earth did she do?” Xie Yu glanced at it, his expression unchanging.

Mrs. Xie sure moved fast.

As soon as the Ming family collapsed, Ming Wenxian lost her leverage, and all her deeds were exposed online.

A long list of pictures, enough to make the netizens sick of the drama, flooded the internet.

[Disgusting indeed. I remember how she behaved inappropriately with my favorite star during a promotional event. I’ve despised her since then. The public’s disdain for her is justified, and finally, her backer has fallen.]

[Does anyone know which big shot took out this pest from the entertainment industry? It’s about time the circle got rid of such a nuisance!]

[Rumor has it that the reason ‘Upon Brocade’ and ‘Serene Delight’ had to step in was that Ming Wenxian wanted to make a move against Xie Yu, but Teacher Si wouldn’t allow it. Ming Wenxian threatened to quit, waiting for Teacher Si to come begging her to stay. Haha, who knew the production team would simply invite the virtual reality gods instead, not even giving her a second glance. Now she’s ruined herself. Serves her right!]

[Hey, have you guys noticed that most of the recent downfalls in the entertainment circle seem to be connected to Si Fuqing? Is she the discipline enforcer of the industry, always hitting the mark?]

[Enough said, I’m off to pray to the lucky koi fish.]

“Brother Ge, it seems you are the lucky one,” Xu Xiyun held up his phone, “She was just about to target you.”

“It’s not about luck; it’s about being smart,” Xie Yu pinched the bridge of his nose, “Remember to eat more walnuts. And don’t tell others that you’re lucky.”

Though the lowest class of evolved beings might not differ much from ordinary people and couldn’t cause much harm, a good luck buff like the one Xu Xiyun possessed could attract the attention of higher-class evolved beings, leading to exploitation.

After all, luck often plays a pivotal role in the turn of events, hence the saying, “Right place, right time, right people.”

“Xie Yu.” Lu Yan approached, masking a fake smile, “I’m really looking forward to seeing how your family will appear on the ninth episode next week.” Xie Yu tilted his head, “What, you want to meet my mom?”

“Why would I want to meet your mother?” Lu Yan scoffed dismissively, “She’s not that remarkable.”

“Still so arrogant after falling out of the top three,” Xu Xiyun snorted, “Such audacity. Does your family think they’re something special?”

Lu Yan left with a cold face.

“Brother Xie,” Xu Xiyun whispered, “So how will your mom support you?”

Xie Yu pondered, “She might just blow my head off.”

Xu Xiyun:

At this moment, in the East State, at the JI family’s residence.

A ragged young man tiptoed stealthily through the grand entrance of the JI household.

He was attempting to quietly make his way back to his room, but was caught by the butler who was patrolling outside.

Startled at first, the butler was about to shout “Thief in the JI house!” until he recognized the face of JI Xingzhi.

“The young master has returned!” The butler exclaimed joyously, “Master, the young master is back!”

JI Xingzhi’s grandfather emerged, his brows furrowed in disapproval as he scrutinized JI Xingzhi. “Have you been thieving? Covered in dirt like this, how did customs not stop you?”

“Don’t even mention it,” JI Xingzhi snorted coldly. “After I torched the Fujisan family’s ancestral hall, they retaliated. Right after I got off the plane, I was hit with both mental and physical attacks.”

“If daddy me hadn’t reacted quickly, the airport would’ve been blown up.”

“How dare you referring to yourself as ‘daddy’?” The old Master JI smacked JI Xingzhi’s head, his brows furrowing deeper. “Did you find out anything on your trip to Eastern Mulberry?”

“Though I’m quite conceited, I have to admit, their development in the arts of the Master of Yin-Yang has been rapid, and they’ve come up with quite a few new tricks,” JI Xingzhi spoke with a serious tone. “Old man, no offense, but the head of the Fujisan family is as powerful as you. If it really came down to it, I think you’d be in trouble.”

The old Master JI was so angry his beard trembled. “You insolent child, you deserve a beating!”

But he knew what JI Xingzhi said was true.

The arts of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, after being introduced to Eastern Mulberry 600 years ago, had developed rapidly there.

“Alright, alright, enough of that. Quick, Uncle Butler, go fetch something nice from the old man’s treasure trove,” JI Xingzhi plopped himself down, demanding, “Only the best. I don’t want anything less.”

The old Master Ji staggered, “What are you doing? You’re wasting our family’s resources! That’s my coffin money!”

“What coffin money? You’ve got plenty of years left. Just save up some more,” JI Xingzhi guzzled down a large bucket of water. “This is for my big brother, you wouldn’t understand.”

“Your big brother?” the elder Ji asked, puzzled.

“Yes, my big brother is also a Master of Yin-yang. Oh, and give me that mask from the Great Xia Dynasty era,” JI Xingzhi requested. “My brother’s looks are… well, he needs a mask to look more imposing..”
