At the moment of collision, Tang Miaoyin felt an extremely powerful force coming from the sword.

In the next instant, accompanied by a muffled grunt, Tang Miaoyin's body staggered backward.

"Tang Miaoyin is defeated."

"To think that after Wang Ruoxie broke through to the Ninth Layer of Energy-Introducing Realm, his strength became so terrifying, defeating Tang Miaoyin with a single effortless strike."

"Reaching the first rank at the Ninth Layer of Energy-Introducing Realm, perhaps this is unprecedented in the history of the Celestial Sword Sect."

...

Below the battle platform, everyone was discussing, their faces filled with disbelief.

"Brother Wang actually defeated Tang Miaoyin, unbelievable."

Song Qing said in disbelief.

"Has he become this strong?"

Bing Ling looked at Wang Ruoxie with a different glint in her eyes, muttering to herself.

Even Ouyang Ling was shocked, although he always wanted to see the limits of Wang Ruoxie, he didn't expect Wang Ruoxie could defeat Tang Miaoyin and take the first place in the assessment.

The conclusion of this battle also marked the end of this entry examination for the Celestial Sword Sect.

The final rankings were thus determined.

Although Wang Ruoxie had not fought with Qin Wushuang, Tang Miaoyin had easily defeated Qin Wushuang before, and Wang Ruoxie defeated Tang Miaoyin, so no further battle was needed.

It can be said that Wang Ruoxie's title as the first place was beyond doubt.

"You won."

Tang Miaoyin, with a complex expression, said to Wang Ruoxie, then walked off the battle platform.

Even though she still had the strength to fight again, she knew very well that even if she fought again, she would inevitably lose.

Wang Ruoxie, after breaking through to the Ninth Layer of Energy-Introducing Realm, was simply too powerful.

She could feel that with that one strike, Wang Ruoxie had held back; otherwise, even if she didn't die, she would be severely injured.

"Congratulations, Brother Wang, on winning the competition; not only are there generous rewards, but you will also be highly valued by the sect and receive the best training."

After returning to the crowd, Song Qing smiled at him.

"Congratulations."

Bing Ling also smiled and congratulated him.

"Now, I shall announce the final rankings of this assessment: first place Wang Ruoxie, second place Tang Miaoyin, third place Qin Wushuang... tenth place Deng Jun."

At this moment, Ouyang Ling loudly declared to the crowd.

Immediately, Ouyang Ling gave out rewards to everyone, as well as the Identity Jade Plate, Disciple Robe, Residence Key, and a Newcomer's Handbook.

The Identity Jade Plate, about the size of a palm, was carved from white jade, adorned with special inscriptions, and was a treasure artifact with special abilities.

Every disciple of the Celestial Sword Sect had their own Identity Jade Plate, which recorded their identity information and the sect points they possessed.

For example, Wang Ruoxie's Identity Jade Plate showed "Wang Ruoxie, Outer Sect Disciple, one thousand points."

By winning first place in the examination, he received a reward of one thousand lower-grade spirit stones and three top-grade treasure artifacts, as well as one thousand sect points.

Song Qing and Bing Ling, having only entered the top twenty, received an entry reward of only fifty points.

As for those disciples ranked lower, each got a basic reward of twenty points.

In the Celestial Sword Sect, almost all cultivation resources could be exchanged for points.

Without points, progress would be impossible, and cultivation speed would fall far behind others.

Wang Ruoxie, as an Outer Sect Disciple, received a welfare of one hundred points each month.

Of course, to acquire more sect points, they needed to find other ways, like completing sect missions, advancing their disciple tier, exchanging cultivation and martial techniques, and treasure resources... and so on.

After placing the one thousand lower-grade spirit stones, the rewarded three top-grade treasure long swords, and the identity jade plate into his storage pouch, Wang Ruoxie, Song Qing, and Bing Ling walked together to their residences.

"Brother Wang, I live at Room Nine, Class B, which one is yours?"

Song Qing asked Wang Ruoxie.

Wang Ruoxie glanced at the bronze key in his hand, on which were engraved the four small characters "Room Ten, Class A."

"It's actually a Class A room."

Song Qing exclaimed, "I didn't expect that your first-place title comes with such privileges."

"Why, is there something special about the Class A rooms?"

Wang Ruoxie looked at Song Qing and asked.

"As far as I know, the residences for Outer Sect Disciples come in four classes: A, B, C, and D. Although they're nice, they are just ordinary accommodations."

Song Qing nodded slightly and continued, "In the Celestial Sword Sect, aside from the four classes of A, B, C, and D, there are four other classes: Heavenly, Earthly, Profound, and Yellow. Not only do they have decorations that far surpass ordinary residences, but they also contain a Spirit Gathering Array, with the spiritual qi inside being at least several times more concentrated than outside. Cultivating there yields twice the result with half the effort."

"Inner Sect Disciples usually stay in Yellow-class rooms, and Core Disciples reside in Profound-class rooms, while True Disciples basically stay in Earth-class rooms."

Hearing Song Qing's explanation, Wang Ruoxie understood that his place of residence was indeed quite good.

"The Heavenly-class rooms are the best residences for Celestial Sword Sect disciples, even True Disciples might not qualify to live in them. It seems that only those who win first place in the entry examination qualify to stay in a Heavenly-class room."

Song Qing said enviously, "Moreover, the Heavenly-class rooms not only have denser spiritual qi but also offer other special benefits."

"By the way, I've heard that the three great beauties of the Celestial Sword Sect all reside in Heavenly-class rooms."

Wang Ruoxie was slightly taken aback, "Three great beauties?"

"The three great beauties of the Celestial Sword Sect: Ouyang Qian, Xiao Ningyue, Xueyao; I've heard of them for a long time."

Bing Ling suddenly spoke.

"Unexpectedly, Xiao Ningyue is one of the three great beauties of the Celestial Sword Sect."

Wang Ruoxie thought to himself, of course, with Xiao Ningyue's looks, she could definitely be called a stunning beauty.

"The Seventh Princess Tang Miaoyin may also be accommodated in a Heavenly-class room; then there would be four great beauties, Brother Wang, you're quite lucky."

Song Qing said with a half-sneer.

Although Tang Miaoyin only took second place in the entry assessment, she was the Seventh Princess of the Royal Family, a most precious figure. Ouyang Ling would probably also arrange for her to stay in a Heavenly-class room.

Hearing Song Qing's words, Wang Ruoxie chuckled, but inwardly shook his head.

Tang Miaoyin and Xiao Ningyue were indeed beautiful, and he had not yet met Ouyang Qian and Xueyao, but to be ranked alongside Xiao Ningyue, they must also be outstanding beauties.

However, in his heart, there was still the shadow of a past love, the Profound Lady.

Moreover, he was once killed by his beloved in his previous life, making it difficult for him to trust women again; no matter how beautiful, he would not easily be swayed.

The most important thing was that his primary goal now was to quickly regain his past life's cultivation and even break through to a higher level.

Still, living with four stunning women in Heavenly-class rooms in the future, he knew he might encounter troubles.

After parting ways with Song Qing and Bing Ling, Wang Ruoxie headed toward the location of the Heavenly-class rooms.

The Heavenly-class rooms were situated atop a solitary peak, with magnificent palaces neatly lined up, shrouded in mist like an immortal realm.

Wang Ruoxie didn't expect that his place of residence would be an actual palace.
