I Just Wanted to Live, but I Somehow Became Better Than the Main Character

The Music and Art Hall was located on the 9th mountain- Echo Mountain.

While it may be the 9th mountain, it was the 2nd smallest mountain. After all, there werent many people in the Music and Art Hall, so even if they got more space, they wouldnt make use of it anyway.

In contrast, the Sword Pavilion Hall, which had a ton of disciples, had one mountain for the disciples to live in and one mountain for teachings.

While Echo Mountain was the 2nd smallest mountain, it was by no means small. Lu Xiao Xiao introduced the mountain to Ye Yong. The top of the mountain was the hall masters residence. Because of the small number of people in the Music and Art Hall, the disciples residences were all in the middle of the mountain instead of being divided into multiple levels like the other halls. The upper middle part of the mountain was filled with cultivation and lecture halls used for teaching and cultivating.

Ye Yong could see a lot of buildings on the mountain, as if they were villas in a forest, very close to nature.

From a certain point of view, cultivation was even more black tech than science. By setting up an array, they could repel the mosquitoes, insects, mice, and other pests away, allowing them to not have to worry about waking up next to some bugs.

After Lu Xiao Xiao and the other senior disciples of the Music and Art Hall enthusiastically introduced the Music and Art Hall, they looked like they wanted to say something but couldnt. Ye Yong could tell that they wanted to disclose the contents of the assessment to him, but they were afraid that the hall master would find out. Then, not only would Ye Yong fail automatically, but they would also be punished.

As someone who had read the novel, Ye Yong knew the contents of the assessment. He smiled lightly, saying, Senior sisters, please dont reveal the contents of the assessment to me. If you did that, even if I managed to pass the assessment, I wouldnt feel right about it. I want to prove myself worthy of becoming your junior brother.

Since Ye Yong had said so, Lu Xiao Xiao and the other senior disciples didnt have a choice but to give up. Otherwise, they might really take the risk of punishment and tell Ye Yong the contents of the assessment to help him pass.

Music and Art Hall, Hall Masters Residence

Yi Bai and the other Golden Core Realm disciples were all kneeling down at the door, telling the hall master about Ye Yong and asking her to keep Ye Yong.

Do you girls know why I created an assessment for male cultivators after I became the Hall Master and didnt accept male cultivators for so long? an ethereal and pleasant voice within the residence asked.

Hall Master said that it was because cultivating art and music requires the heart to be clean and focused. If one thinks about women or men, it would affect their progress of cultivation, Yi Bai replied.

Thats right. Cultivating music or art is already difficult, and having a distracted mind would make it even more difficult. Ive also heard a bit about this Ye Yong that you girls were talking about. 18 years old, 10th Layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm, with a 7-color foundation. His talent is exceptional, but do you girls know that he had also cultivated the sword for 10 years?

Junior Brother Ye really does have talent for art and music. Especially his talent for art- there are already traces of Dao in his paintings, Yi Bai said.

The same goes for music, another disciple said. Yi Bai majored in art, so it was better for someone else that majored in music to attest for Ye Yongs music skills.

You girls the hall master could only sigh helplessly. Youre already in the Golden Core Realm. How come you girls still cant control your mortal hearts? Do you really have to lie for a male disciple?

Disciple did not lie.

Then tell me, Yi Bai, how long have you been cultivating art?

I have been cultivating since I was 5, so 206 years now.

You have cultivated for 206 years, and youre still only at the 8th Layer of the Golden Core Realm. You havent even touched the Dao of Art, and yet, you girls are telling me that a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator who is only 18 years old has touched the Dao of both music and art? Are you girls trying to tell me that he is the reincarnation of a music immortal and an art immortal?

Not impossible. Disciples every word is true.

Even so, he still has to pass my assessment. With an unstable heart, no amount of talent can carry one far down the path of music or art.

But hes only 18, in the prime of his youth

Alright, thats enough. Bring him to the assessment house when he arrives. Also, youre not allowed to leak the contents of the assessment. Well, it doesnt matter even if you leak it, but I will be unhappy with you girls.

When Yi Bai and the other senior disciples saw Ye Yong, their faces were a bit unnatural, as if they were too embarrassed to see him.

Junior Brother Ye, please follow me to the assessment room to take the hall masters assessment.

Thank you, senior sister, Ye Yong said, saluting. He then told Wu Xue, You go ahead and follow Senior Sister Lu. Ill go and find you after I pass the assessment.

Go Young Master! Wu Xue felt that nothing was impossible for Ye Yong, so she wasnt worried at all. When Yi Bai left with Ye Yong, Wu Xue saw Lu Xiao Xiao and the other female disciples sighing, so she couldnt help but ask, Whats wrong, fairies?

Mortals generally referred to cultivators as immortals or fairies, and since Wu Xue was only in the Qi Refinement Realm and wasnt even a disciple of the Heavenly Luo Sect, she decided to address them as such.

The assessment created by the hall master is very difficult, and there is a very slim chance for Junior Brother Ye to pass the assessment.

Why is that?

The Path of Music and Art is more focused on the cultivation of the mind, soul, and heart rather than the cultivation level. Only a strong soul can bring out the power of the Path of Music and Art. Our hall master is in the Ascension Realm, and while she majors in music, she is also very good at art. The paintings that she makes

A small house in the middle of the mountain

Junior Brother Ye, pleaxse keep your reasoning In the end, Yi Bai and the other Golden Core Realm disciples decided to not reveal the contents of the assessment to Ye Yong. They partially didnt dare to disobey the hall master and partially wanted to just believe in Ye Yong.

Thanks for the heads-up, Ye Yong said, saluting. He walked into the small house. The house was clean and had a large bed, a desk, a chair, and many bookshelves. There were 2 portraits hanging on the wall. They were quite realistic, and their eyes were full of affection, making them very seductive.

Ye Yong saw a note on the table telling him that he needed to copy a mental art. He spent quite a while trying to find the mental art on the bookshelves. After finding the mental art, Ye Yong returned to the table and started copying. It was a pretty thick book with boring contents.

If it was a normal person, then their hand would feel sore after continuously writing for half an hour. However, not only was Ye Yong a cultivator, but he also had a divine physique, so he was fine. And like that, he copied from morning to afternoon, from afternoon to evening, and from evening to night.

And finally, Ye Yong finished copying the mental art. Ye Yong shook his wrist. The long time spent copying the mental art, combined with the strain of looking at the fine print and the boring content, took a toll on Ye Yongs mental strength. It would be the same for anyone. Ye Yong felt as if he was back in middle school, where the main thing that they did was copy things from their textbooks.

Suddenly, a nice fragrance came from the air, followed by 2 heavenly voices.

Ye Yong looked toward the direction of the sound, finding that the beauties inside the paintings were moving and even walked out of their paintings. They hummed beautiful tunes while taking elegant steps toward Ye Yong. They had amazing figures and were extremely beautiful.

Smell, hearing, and sight. With the influence from 3 different senses, even though Ye Yong had a divine physique, his heart was itching.

After the song was over, the music and the dancing stopped.

Its been a long day, my lord. Let this maid serve you, the two beauties said, bowing, with one on each side of Ye Yong. We can do anything for you.

Anything? Ye Yong asked, his eyes lighting up.

The 2 beauties lowered their heads, blushing, and their eyes watered. While they didnt answer, it made peoples hearts race more.

Ye Yong let out a smile.

Daytime

Seeing that it was time, Yi Bai and the other disciples who had been guarding outside for the whole day went into the house. It wasnt the first time that they had done something like this, but this time, they were very unwilling to do it.

In the past, after the male cultivators went through the traplike assessment, they would become mentally unstable and unable to distinguish things. Their clothes would also be partly removed. It was as if they were experiencing r18 hallucinations.

Their job was to put these male disciples at the bottom of Echo Peak, embarrassing them in front of their fellow disciples.

Some people thought that the Music and Art Halls hall master was too cruel and excessive in her approach, but regardless, it was very effective. After a few times, the dirty-minded male disciples didnt try to hit on the female disciples from the Music and Art Hall again.

Yi Bai and the other female disciples didnt want to see Ye Yong look like one of those male disciples.

After they entered the house, they noticed that the room was very neat and tidy, unlike in the past when there would be books everywhere. The 2 painting beauties were currently sitting at the table writing something with their heads down.

Ye Yong sat next to them as if he was supervising them, and said, The God of War returned, and upon finding that his daughter was living in a doghouse, he immediately gave order, and 100,000 rushed to his side, building the same doghouse for him as his daughter
