The crowd roared as the final verdict ca crashing down like a thunderbolt from the heavens.
"By unanimous decision," Grand Elder Mo Tian bellowed, "the winners of the Dual Cultivation Compatibility Tournant are..."
drumroll
"...Wang Li and Bai i!"
Before Wang Li could even breathe, Bai i stepped forward, lips curled in an exquisite smile. "Of course we won. You think anyone could out-seduce ?"
A gasp rippled through the crowd, followed by a chorus of sighs and heartbreak from love-struck junior disciples.
Second place: Lin Ruoyan and Wang Li.
Third place: Mu Qingling and Wang Li.
Special Discretionary Entry: Feng Yuling and Wang Li.
And a Very Special Chaos Award: Little Fox and Wang Li.
Wang Li felt cold sweat drip down his back. He leaned toward Grand Elder Mo Tian, whispering through clenched teeth.
"Isn’t this supposed to be one pair per winner?!"
The elder rubbed his beard thoughtfully. "Ah, but the Pavilion has one very large bed..."
"...You’re evil."
"Bla fate," the elder said serenely.
The Jade Moon Pavilion stood atop a floating peak bathed in moonlight, with spirit springs bubbling beneath crystal windows and clouds drifting lazily through open courtyards.
Inside the lavish master chamber, a massive silken bed the size of a small lake took center stage.
Wang Li stood stiff as a sword, already regretting every life choice.
To his left, Bai i lounged on the bed wearing robes so thin they could be mistaken for mist. "Co here, winner."
To his right, Lin Ruoyan crossed her arms under her chest. "I ca in second. I deserve equal ti."
Behind him, Mu Qingling unsheathed her sword and pointed it at Bai i. "He’s sleeping beside ."
Feng Yuling leaned against the window, expression cold. "I freeze the whole room unless I’m included."
Then ca the flutter of nine tails and a familiar sing-song voice.
"Yay! I brought snacks~"
Little Fox skipped in wearing a pink nightgown with an embroidered ’Wang ’. "I’m staying too!"
Wang Li slowly turned in a circle. "No. No no no no no."
"Yes," Bai i said. "Strip."
"Absolutely not!"
"I’m your senior sister," she purred.
"Don’t care!"
"Fine," Lin Ruoyan said, removing her outer robe and revealing sleek battle lingerie underneath. "Then I’ll start."
"WHAT?!"
Thirty Minutes Later
The girls had each claid one quadrant of the bed.
Bai i occupied the west, reading a book while sipping wine.
Lin Ruoyan practiced fire circulation in the east, radiating soft warmth.
Mu Qingling ditated upside-down from the ceiling beam.
Feng Yuling had frozen half the windows and was now sipping tea like a queen.
Little Fox had tucked herself under the blankets and fallen asleep on Wang Li’s arm.
Wang Li? He was sitting on the floor in the lotus position, trembling.
"Focus," he whispered to himself. "Focus. Cultivate. Pretend you’re a monk. Pretend you’re a—"
Tail slap.
Little Fox’s tail brushed against his face.
"Wang Li~ are you ditating? You’re not fun," she pouted, pulling on his sleeve.
Bai i chuckled from the bed. "You’re resisting like a man on death row."
"Because I am!!"
The spirit moon outside glowed violet.
A sudden spiritual surge rippled through the Pavilion.
BOOM!
A hidden formation activated.
Lights flared. Incense ignited. Curtains dropped.
An ancient voice echoed through the room.
> "The Jade Moon Pavilion recognizes high compatibility. You are now locked in for one full night of dual cultivation."
> "Anyone who does not pair off within the next hour will suffer backlash from accumulated qi deviation."
Wang Li’s face paled.
"Wh-What kind of sick sect trap is this?!"
Bai i’s eyes narrowed with a dangerous glint. "Looks like soone has to choose."
Lin Ruoyan smirked. "You can’t possibly satisfy all five of us."
Mu Qingling stood, robe slipping just enough to reveal snow-white shoulders. "Try ."
Feng Yuling cracked her knuckles. "I vote we each get a turn."
Little Fox snuggled tighter. "He’s already mine~"
He backed against the wall like a cornered animal.
"You’re all crazy. You know that, right? I’m a cultivator! A man of—AH!"
Bai i teleported directly in front of him, pinning him with her eyes.
"Don’t worry," she whispered. "You’ll enjoy every second."
Lin Ruoyan ca from the other side. "Your qi will soar."
Mu Qingling joined with a blade at his collarbone. "Just try to survive."
Feng Yuling placed her icy hand on his chest. "I’ll freeze the others until I’m done."
Little Fox leapt into his lap. "So many angry sisters... hehe. Lucky !"
That night, the Jade Moon Pavilion glowed brighter than the moon.
Spiritual qi overflowed.
The sect shook.
Birds flew away.
Mountains trembled.
No one slept.
Not even the Grand Elder, who sipped his tea and stared out into the horizon, muttering:
"...And they say my generation was wild."
