The only benefit was that the undergarments Mu Yanxi had chosen were relatively wide; at the very least, they covered a bit of her legs beneath the skirt so she wouldn’t be too exposed.
After a while, Ruo Xuan walked over and asked, “Are you finished changing? Shall we head to the Assembly Hall together?”
“Oh, alright, let’s go.” Mu Yanxi wasn’t very clear on the initiation process of this world, so having an old acquaintance lead the way was quite helpful.
However, as they stepped out of the dressing room entrance, several Senior Sisters wearing badges were standing by the door, eyeing the girls walking out—specifically, their attire.
“Where is your Spiritual Moon Ring? You must wear it on your person.”
“No wearing coats over the Sect Uniform! Take it off, quickly!”
“Why are you wearing your own socks? Please change into the over-the-knee socks issued by the Sect.”
These Senior Sisters stopped many of the girls who had just come out to correct their outfits.
“This is bad. It’s the Disciplinary Committee. They’re the most troublesome ones,” Ruo Xuan said with a frown. Hearing this, Mu Yanxi also felt a headache coming on. Disciplinary Disciples and Enforcement Elders were the people Sect members least wanted to encounter.
Mu Yanxi checked her own outfit and felt that everything should be fine. She hadn’t added any extra clothes over her Sect Uniform, she was properly wearing the red-patterned white over-the-knee socks issued by the Sect, and her Spiritual Moon Ring was on her arm.
However, as they walked past, they were still stopped by a Disciplinary Disciple. One of the Senior Sisters looked at Mu Yanxi and said, “What’s the deal with your underwear? How is it longer than your hemline? Go back and take it off.”
“Huh? No, wait—the Sect actually has a rule for that?” Mu Yanxi felt this was beyond absurd. She had never heard of any Sect that had requirements regarding undergarments.
“Are you questioning the Disciplinary Committee? The Sect Rules explicitly state that the style of your undergarments is not permitted to be longer than the hem of the Sect Uniform!” another Senior Sister barked sharply.
“I just joined the Sect, how could I have possibly read the Sect Rules yet?” Mu Yanxi’s temper flared. In her previous life, she was a Nascent Soul Cultivator. Even True Disciples treated her with the utmost respect. She couldn’t stomach this kind of petty grievance.
“Oh? It seems this Junior Sister doesn’t understand the rules very well. We Senior Sisters will have to teach you a lesson.”
One of the Senior Sisters looked as if she were smiling like a flower, and her tone was gentle, but it contained a hidden, vicious intent.
These Disciplinary Disciples were clearly wielding their minor authority as if it were an absolute command. This was no different from bullying.
At this moment, Mu Yanxi felt a hint of regret. Her cultivation was originally inferior to these Senior Sisters, and they had the advantage of numbers.
Even if this turned into a major scene, the Sect would certainly favor the Disciplinary Disciples. No matter what, she would be the one at a disadvantage. But since she had already stood her ground, she couldn’t back down now.
A Senior Sister raised her hand and reached out, golden silk threads emerging and intertwining around her palm.
Mu Yanxi felt as if time had slowed down in an instant; the Senior Sister’s movements were rapidly broken down and analyzed within her Exotic Eye.
Entwining Silk Hand. Gold Attribute. Desolate Grade Martial Art. It can entwine and bind a target with golden threads the moment it makes contact.
At higher levels of mastery, one can catch a Divine Artifact with bare hands and seal it. There are three variations to the follow-up.
Mu Yanxi shifted her body to dodge the first grab. The Senior Sister let out a surprised “Huh?” but she didn’t stop.
She flipped her hand, changing the move to lunge at Yanxi again. Mu Yanxi had already raised her hand in advance to block.
The Senior Sister smirked. As long as the Entwining Silk Hand touched the target, it could seal them.
She could already see the image of this new Junior Sister being bound by the golden silk and left to her mercy. Every year, several new disciples were picked on and bullied by the Disciplinary Committee.
To her shock, the moment the golden silk was released from her hand, it was entirely sucked into Mu Yanxi’s eyes.
Terrified by the sight of her Entwining Silk Hand being broken, the Senior Sister immediately scrambled back three steps to get away from Mu Yanxi.
