A little girl holding half a steamed bun.

At this moment, below the Heavenly Ladder, stood a little girl in filthy clothes.

Her hair was knotted and tied into two messy pigtails, and in her hand, she held half a white steamed bun.

Her appearance was completely out of place compared to the other Disciples participating in the assessment.

Due to long-term malnutrition, the little girl was extremely frail.

She swayed unsteadily as she climbed the stairs.

It felt as if she might collapse at any moment.

Stumbling and tripping, she managed to climb to the two-hundredth level.

Half of the incense stick had already burned away.

The little girl looked up and continued to climb, huffing and puffing.

She gripped the half-steamed bun in her hand tightly.

“Big Brother, are you here? I will find you.”

The little girl was only four or five years old and looked very innocent.

However, the people behind her were starting to lose their composure.

“What the hell? What kind of ghost is this? Climbing to the two-hundredth level while holding half a steamed bun?”

“Could that steamed bun have some special function?”

Hearing the discussions, some people who were level with the little girl looked over.

They were struggling to persevere.

Looking at the little girl, their eyes narrowed as they glanced at the bun again.

Could it really have a special function?

A few people approached the little girl.

They reached out to snatch it.

Then, they gave the little girl a shove.

Many people saw this happen.

“Damn it, do you have no conscience? Snatching things even from a little girl.”

“Heh, so what if I snatched it? If you're not happy, come up and fight me. Don't act so high and mighty; you all wanted to do it too, you just didn't have the chance because you were a step behind her.”

The person who had spoken up was exposed and lowered their head in silence.

The person who snatched the bun looked at it in his hand; it was just an ordinary steamed bun.

“Give it back, give it back to me. This is for Big Brother. Big Brother bled a lot and is very weak; I could only get half a bun.”

“Could you give it back to me, please? You can hit me, just give me back this half-bun.”

The little girl's speech was not very clear.

“Tch, what's so good about half a bun?”

The person who snatched the bun snorted coldly.

“A smelly beggar doesn't deserve to be on the same step as me.”

After saying that, he dropped the bun and ground it into the floor with his foot.

The white half-bun turned into a lump of black mud.

“You want it? Go down and pick it up.”

With that, he kicked it down the stairs.

Tears welled in the little girl's eyes.

She watched the bun roll down.

Without hesitation, she ran straight back down after it.

Because she ran too fast, she didn't watch her footing.

With a thud...

She tumbled directly down.

Blood was left on the steps.

Many people cursed under their breath at the sight.

The little girl didn't cry or make a fuss, even as blood-red marks appeared on her arms.

Her forehead was cut open, yet she didn't cry.

She walked to the trampled bun.

She crouched down.

Only then did her tears begin to fall.

“Big Brother, I'm sorry. I'm useless; I couldn't even protect the bun. You bled so much, you must be very hungry.”

“This bun was given to me by a kind grandpa. I was too hungry and ate half. If only I hadn't eaten it, there would definitely still be half left.”

Looking at the bun that had turned into black mud, she couldn't stop her tears from falling again.

In the spectator stands, many people showed no sympathy.

The world of Cultivation was like this: the strong preyed on the weak.

Those with sympathy died easily.

Clearly, they were not the sympathetic type.

However, Shi Jingfeng's gaze fell upon the little girl.

Could it be her?

Shi Jingfeng withdrew his gaze and glanced at Li Taixuan on the high platform.

He found that Li Taixuan had been staring at the little girl the entire time.

How interesting.

If she really is Jiang Wanyin's Reincarnation...

And she's being bullied like this now...

Once that guy finds out, there's no telling what he might do.

Shi Jingfeng intended to intervene.

But then he saw the little girl suddenly stand up.

She began running back up the steps.

However, her state seemed a bit off.

The bun that had long since turned into black mud was gripped tightly in her small hand.

Before long, she had climbed back up to the person who had snatched her bun.

The person was stunned.

“Heh, little beggar, what do you want?”

The little girl looked up.

The person froze.

What kind of eyes were those?

Deep, like an abyss.

“I...”

“Want...”

“To...”

“Kill...”

“You...”

Hearing the little girl's words...

The person burst into arrogant laughter.

“You're just a little beggar who hasn't even been weaned yet. Scram back down.”

The little girl thought about how she hadn't brought back the bun.

Once she found Big Brother, he might starve to death.

The rage in her eyes could no longer be contained.

Her messy hair began to fly wildly.

Her two pigtails broke free.

Her hair fluttered, and her tattered clothes whipped loudly in the wind.

“Kill you.”

Boom!

A powerful Aura erupted.

It pressed down on the person like Mount Tai.

“How can this be...”

Before the person could finish speaking, his entire body was crushed into a meat patty by the powerful Aura.

The little girl stepped forward slowly.

She placed her foot on the person's remains.

She ground her foot down viciously.

This scene made the scalps of the Disciples below her go numb.

Was this still a four or five-year-old girl?

She was a devil.

Many timid people were already shaking in their boots.

Mama, I want to go home.

The outside world is too dangerous.

The little girl's bare feet left small black footprints on the meat patty.

After it was completely stepped on, she kicked it away.

She turned her head to look at the Disciples participating in the assessment below.

“Do you want to snatch my bun too?”

The Disciples below shook their heads frantically.

Looking at the little girl's smile...

They felt like something was about to burst out uncontrollably.

Once the little girl's state returned to normal...

She looked at the bun in her hand and became conflicted and aggrieved again.

Water even filled her eyes.

“Big Brother, where are you?”

As she spoke, she continued to climb upward.

Many people followed behind her, trembling with fear.

In the spectator stands, Shi Jingfeng gasped at the sight.

He offered two seconds of silence for his brother.

If this little girl really was Jiang Wanyin's Reincarnation...

When she grows up, won't she be a total lunatic?

He didn't know if his brother could handle her; it was too terrifying.

Then, his gaze inadvertently shifted to Li Taixuan.

You'd better not intervene, or you won't even know how you died.

Soon, the incense stick burned out.

Many people had shock in their eyes.

They looked at the three people who had finished the Heavenly Ladder in disbelief.

Among them was the little girl who had just gone crazy.

At four or five years old, the Heavenly Ladder seemed to have no effect on her at all.

Even the other two who reached the top looked at the tiny thing in front of them with shock.

She wasn't even as tall as their waists, yet she could reach the top so easily.

“Have you seen Big Brother?”

The two of them shook their heads.

They even took a step back.

They felt this little girl was a bit off.

The Aura she emitted when she crushed the person who bullied her was suffocating.

The Elder responsible for the Heavenly Ladder assessment stepped forward cautiously.

“Little child, where are your parents?”

The little girl took a long time to react, as if she had just come to her senses.

“Parents? I'm looking for Big Brother. Big Brother had his eyes gouged out by bad people and bled a lot. A kind grandpa gave me a bun; I had half left, but now it's ruined. Can you give me a bun? No, just half? I want to bring it to Big Brother.”
