I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points

Chapter 137: Infiltration (I)

Blue Cloud Town was located next to the road at the foot of the Blue Cloud Sword Sect, and was only 30 to 40 kilometers away from Luoxi City.

At this moment, the sky was turning dark, and night was about to fall.

Cars of all sizes were parked on the empty lawn outside the town. The town was filled with people, and there was an endless stream of customers in the restaurants.

Chen Yiming walked straight into the town and found a small restaurant with an empty table.

As soon as he sat down, the conversation between two middle-aged men next to him drifted into his ears.

“Lao Zhou, your son, Zhou Zhenyu, is only 18 years old, but he has already reached the seventh transformation. I’m really envious.” After Liu Heping finished speaking, he finished the white wine in his small cup in one gulp.

“Your son, Liu Mingfei, is not bad either. He has undergone eight transformations. There’s a high chance that he will pass the entrance test,” Zhou Qingyang said humbly.

“It’s hard to say. Liu Mingfei is already 20 years old. Age is a problem.” Liu Heping shook his head.

Zhou Qingyang took the initiative to raise his glass and clink it against his companion’s. He smiled and said, “Let’s not talk about this anymore. The entrance test will last for a total of two days. We can just wait for the results quietly. We won’t leave until we’re drunk today.”

“Alright!” Liu Heping clinked their glasses and downed his drink again.

After a few drinks, the two middle-aged men quickly changed the topic away from the entrance test.

He had coincidentally arrived at the time when the Blue Sword Sword Sect was recruiting new disciples.

The entrance test lasted for two days.

Chen Yiming’s expression remained unchanged as he memorized this important piece of information.

At this time, there would definitely be many unfamiliar faces entering the Blue Cloud Sword Sect. The timing was very suitable for him to infiltrate the sect.

At this thought, Chen Yiming set off and went up the mountain.

He left the town first and walked into a remote forest. Then, he covered his entire body with the black fog internal force. His entire body melted into the darkness, and he followed the only path up the mountain.

…

At the Blue Cloud Sword Sect, in front of a row of temporary iron-plated houses beside the morning training square, dozens of fresh-faced young men and women were sitting in the open space in the square, chatting and laughing.

At the end of the street in the square, young men and women could similarly be seen walking in the direction of the plated houses. Some of them were even carrying meal boxes.

Chen Yiming blended into the darkness and sneaked into the sect. He wandered around and returned to the residence of the newcomers who were participating in the entrance test.

Along the way, he did not dare to enter any houses. He only roughly memorized the layout of the buildings in the Blue Cloud Sword Sect.

For example, the location of the three peaks, the library, the residential area for the outer sect disciples, the residential area for the inner sect disciples, and so on.

Soon, the conversation between three young men and women caught his attention.

“Brother Zhang, after the swordsmanship theory assessment ended in the morning, Senior Brother Li Yuanzhuo kept us back individually and asked about our family situation. What do you think this means?” Tang Jinfei suddenly asked in a low voice.

“I think it’s just a normal show of concern. Senior Brother Li Yuanzhuo is really a good person. He even told me many things that I should take note of in the sword theory assessment.” Zhang Xiaohai was stunned.

Jiang Huili, who was at the side, echoed, “That’s right. After listening to Senior Brother Li Yuanzhuo’s guidance, I think that even if we fail this time, there’s a high chance that we can pass next year after we go back and prepare well.”

Tang Jinfei’s face darkened at their responses.

He was different from the others. He came from an ordinary family and had relied on himself for his martial arts training all his life. Therefore, he was usually more cautious when handling matters.

His intuition told him that Li Yuanzhuo was hiding something, but he could not say it out loud.

Suddenly, an unfamiliar voice sounded from the side.

“I think Li Yuanzhuo is hinting that you guys should take the initiative to act.”

The three of them turned around and saw a well-proportioned young man about 1.9 meters tall walking over.

“You are…?” Tang Jinfei asked warily.

“The same as you guys,” Chen Yiming replied.

His true age was 18 years old, the same age as most of the people taking the entrance test.

He easily blended into the group of young men and women and nothing seemed to be amiss on the surface.

At this moment, Jiang Huili said, “Friend, please don’t spout nonsense. The Blue Cloud Sword Sect is not an ordinary small sect. Senior Brother Li Yuanzhuo is not an elder of the sect, so how can he influence the final test results?”

Chen Yiming’s expression remained unchanged.

The others did not know that Li Yuanzhuo had relied on his connections with Li Kun to join the Blue Cloud Sword Sect, and that Li Kun was a core disciple of the Purple Light Peak.

Li Yuanzhuo had certain privileges among the inner sect disciples.

“The elders in the sect are responsible for the recruitment of new disciples, but it’s impossible for them to personally be in charge of a small thing like arranging the name list for the matches. The disciples will definitely be in charge of it,” Chen Yiming said calmly.

At this point, it was obvious.

Tang Jinfei looked at his two companions.

Chen Yiming’s guess coincided with his own. They both felt that there was something strange about Li Yuanzhuo.

Zhang Xiaohai and Jiang Huili hesitated, but they still felt that there was no evidence.

There was more than one inner sect disciple present at the venue. How could Li Yuanzhuo guarantee that he would be in charge of arranging the name list for the matches?

Seeing this, Chen Yiming continued, “There’s another woman from the Li clan who is a disciple of the Blue Cloud Sword Sect. Furthermore, she’s a core disciple.”

As he spoke, Li Yuanzhuo’s intentions were revealed. His motive was clear.

Zhang Xiaohai and Jiang Huili took a deep breath. They no longer had any reason to refute him.

Those who had connections had special privileges everywhere. It was very common for them to get what they wanted.

Soon, Chen Yiming and the three of them started to discuss how much they should pay to bribe Li Yuanzhuo.

In the end, the price was decided with an item worth 10 million yuan as the standard. None of them would offer anything worth more or less, to prevent Li Yuanzhuo from demanding too much.

This was only a small price to pay for someone from the disciple realm who had undergone more than six transformations.

After all, it was only a name list for the matches. Even if they could fight weaker opponents, they might not be chosen by the elders in charge of recruitment.

After coming to a consensus, Tang Jinfei suggested, “There’s no time to lose. Let’s go find Li Yuanzhuo now.”

Zhang Xiaohai nodded and said worriedly, “That’s right. Li Yuanzhuo must have contacted more than just the few of us. It’s best if we can get there before the others.”

Jiang Huili also nodded, indicating that she had no objections.

Chen Yiming naturally had no objections. He was just trying to trick the three of them into bringing him to Li Yuanzhuo.

Thus, the four of them quietly left the crowd.

Zhang Xiaohai walked at the front while Chen Yiming followed at the very back.

…

The four of them walked along the main road of the Blue Cloud Sword Sect for more than a kilometer.

They turned right and passed by the residence of the outer sect disciples. After walking for another half a kilometer, they followed the path beside the residence of the inner sect disciples and entered a peach forest.

There was a pavilion deep in the peach forest.

Beside the pavilion, a figure was waving his sword under the moonlight.

His expression was focused, and his movements were precise. Every move reflected his serious attitude.

The figure was Li Yuanzhuo, who was pretending to be focused on practicing his swordsmanship but was actually waiting for the newcomers he had interacted with during the day to come looking for him.

Tang Jinfei, Zhang Xiaohai, and Jiang Huili quietly walked to the side and waited. Only when Li Yuanzhuo finished practicing and stopped did the three of them walk over.

As the three of them waited, they realized that Chen Yiming had disappeared.

However, since things had come to this, the three of them didn’t want to cause any more trouble. Hence, they tacitly pretended that they hadn’t met Chen Yiming.

Chen Yiming’s black fog internal force enveloped his entire body as he blended into the darkness and waited dozens of meters away.

Tang Jinfei, Zhang Xiaohai, and Jiang Huili chatted with Li Yuanzhuo for a few minutes.

Probably because Li Yuanzhuo had not only interacted with these three people, and also because they had discussed the price in advance, Li Yuanzhuo looked a little unhappy. However, he still agreed in the end.

He accepted the checks from the three of them and waved them away.

After the three of them left the peach forest, “Clang!”

Li Yuanzhuo received a heavy blow to his head.

Without making a sound, he collapsed to the ground.

Chen Yiming dispersed the black fog internal force and squatted down to search his body.
