The scroll that Zhang Yanxiu displayed was the final result of the entrance trial.
The first rank was the true disciples, the second rank was the inner disciples, and the third rank was the outer disciples.
As for those who were not on the rankings, they were undoubtedly eliminated.
" Alright, the results of the selection have been decided. The first-rank disciples are Luo Qian, Han Yuanqing, Bai Mocheng, Zhao Ji, Lin Yixin, and Nangong Yiyi.”
"Second rank, Zhuang Yan, Liu Chong.。。。。。The rest were outer sect disciples. As for those who were not on the list, they did not pass the test.”
As soon as he said this, everyone present was happy and worried. Some of the nameless ones even turned pale and trembled as they muttered,"Impossible, impossible…。。”
Those who were selected communicated with the people around them. From now on, everyone was from the same sect. In the future, they would see each other frequently. Now, they could get to know each other and form some connections.
"Impossible, impossible…”
"I'm not convinced. Why?"
The voices of doubt from those who were not selected continued, but Zhang Yanxiu had no intention of explaining himself in the face of these people's doubts. He waved his sleeves and said,""Retreat!"
The sea of fog behind him churned and quickly enveloped the platform. After a breath, it dissipated, and the people who were making a ruckus earlier had disappeared.
After dealing with the eliminated people, Zhang Yanxiu continued,""Those who were not selected have been sent back to the foot of the mountain. Someone will arrange for them to leave. If there were people familiar with them, there was no need to worry about them. The results of the naturalization assessment will be assessed by the Hall of Knowledge, supervised by the Hall Master, reviewed by the Sect Master, and finally executed by the Sect Hall according to the results. How can we allow others to be noisy and question them?”
"Everyone present, the legacy disciples will follow me into the legacy hall. The elders and hall masters are already waiting. The remaining inner sect disciples will be brought to the inner sect hall by junior sister Hua Qingqing to handle the follow-up matters. As for the outer sect disciples, they can follow junior brother Lu Song. Now, please gather at your respective guides.”
As he spoke, two cultivators, a man and a woman, stood out behind him. They were Hua Qingqing and Lu Song.
Luo Qian's mood had also calmed down slightly at this time. He turned his head and said to Zhuang Yan seriously,""Brother Zhuang, then I'll take my leave first. If I, Luo Qian, achieve something in the future, I definitely won't forget Brother Zhuang.”
Zhuang Yan couldn't help but smile when he heard that." Yes, yes. I might really need to beg you in the future." Hurry up and go. Don't forget to tell your family about your news.”
Looking at Luo Qian's back as he left, Zhuang Yan felt a little emotional. Luo Qian, who had come with the goal of competing with his brother for favor, had become a Successor Disciple.
As a member of a major family in the Cultivation world, he had worked hard for four years and finally won the chance to participate in the sect's entrance trial by "hugging a thigh". However, he only ended up as an inner disciple.
The mystery of fate really had to be admired.
However, Zhuang Yan thought about it again. Even if he was an inner disciple, it was not bad. At the very least, it was much better than those of the same generation in the family who had no background and no outstanding talent. They could only be family deacons and lived a mediocre life.
Thinking of this, Zhuang Yan followed Zhang Yanxiu's instructions and followed Hua Qingqing to the inner sect.
The moment he stepped on the floating immortal bridge, he turned around and looked behind him. His heart was filled with mixed feelings. Even he himself did not know if he was looking behind him or in the past.。。。。。
Before the age of twelve, Zhuang Yan was muddleheaded and struggled to survive in Moshan Town. If not for God's blessing, finding a small restaurant and working as a helper for a living, he might have been buried long ago.
When he was twelve, he was brought to the Zhuang Family's ancestral land. Although he did not have to worry about food and clothing, the ancestral land was not a good place.
The competition there was more intense, and the social law was simpler. It was survival of the fittest, and the strong preyed on the weak.
In the ancestral land, not everyone had the chance to be arranged to participate in the entrance trials of the various sects after a few years.
The quota was very limited. Those who weren't gifted, talented, or had deep bloodlines wouldn't even be able to enter the major sects.
He might not even be able to survive in the ancestral land.
Of course, only those with outstanding cultivation talent could be valued by the clan and successfully enter the various sects. There was another kind of person, who was like Zhuang Yan, who was a big shot.
When Zhuang Yan first arrived at the ancestral land, he did not understand the rules of survival. It was not until he almost died that he truly understood the cruelty inside.
However, it was also because of this that he received the help of a clan brother who was two years older than him. Through his introduction, he was able to rely on a powerful clan member to protect him and serve him.
Later on, the clan brother who had helped him became an inner sect disciple of Sword Mountain. However, he was killed in a sect mission half a year after he entered the sect, and his bones were never found.
Zhuang Yan had been taken care of by the " thigh " in the ancestral land and had successfully lived for four and a half years. Furthermore, he had caught the eye of that person before he was able to come to Xian Tian Sect and continue following her.
。。。。。。
Zhuang Yan followed closely behind Hua Qingqing.
The surroundings were filled with clouds and mist, and they could only see three meters away. Therefore, when they got on the bridge, Hua Qingqing had already instructed everyone to follow her closely, in case they got lost and got into trouble.
After almost 15 minutes, Hua Qingqing, who was in front of them, stopped. She turned around and reminded everyone again,"The exit is in front. Don't panic, just follow me.”
Without waiting for anyone's reaction, she took a step forward and disappeared.
Such a phenomenon inevitably caused a few exclamations from those who had never come into contact with the cultivation world. However, Zhuang Yan had already been taught basic cultivation knowledge in his early years.
Although he did not know what was going on, he knew that there were many strange things in the cultivation world.
It was useless to guess blindly if he had never seen or heard of it.
Therefore, he did not care about the reactions of the others. He followed Hua Qingqing and took a step forward, disappearing. The people behind him seemed to know what was going on, and a few brave ones followed suit.
After exiting the fog, Zhuang Yan was immediately attracted by the scene in front of him. He stood in front of a huge mountain gate.
He looked past the mountain gate and into the distance. There were verdant peaks and clouds. A huge mountain range lay on the ground. It stretched for an unknown distance and could not be seen at a glance.
There were pavilions and pavilions on each peak of the mountain range, and there were even strange birds and beasts appearing in the mountains. It was no different from the scene of immortals in legends.
Just as Zhuang Yan was immersed in the scene in front of him and was in a daze, the people behind him also followed him. They were all attracted by the scene in front of them.
However, Hua Qingqing did not have the time to wait for them to appreciate the beautiful scenery. She only said,""Follow me!" He pulled everyone back to reality and walked ahead.
After crossing the huge mountain gate of Xian Tian Sect, the group walked along the mountain path for almost half an hour before they gradually saw some buildings. As the distance shortened, the buildings gradually became clearer and more and more. When they got closer, they realized that there were at least five to six thousand palaces scattered all over the mountain.
This once again shocked everyone. It was hard to imagine that there was such a prosperous place in the mountains that no one could come into contact with.
Hua Qingqing did not explain the purpose and origin of the buildings to them. Instead, she continued to lead everyone forward and entered the palace.
At this point, people could be seen. Some were holding swords, some were holding sabers, and some were holding two giant hammers that weighed at least several thousand pounds.
This was the cultivation world! This was a cultivator!
The people passing by did not show any curiosity about Zhuang Yan's arrival. In fact, very few people stopped to watch. Most of them were in a hurry.
Soon, everyone arrived at a large hall. There was a plaque on it that read: In the steward's hall.
According to Zhang Yanxiu, this was their destination, the inner sect hall.
Hua Qingqing led everyone in and saw that there were already many people waiting inside.
Hua Qingqing walked forward and bowed to the middle-aged man in the middle.""Elder, Hua Qingqing, a disciple of the inner sect's Scripture Hall, has arrived with her new junior brothers and sisters. Please check the list.”
As she spoke, she opened her hand and a scroll appeared in her empty right hand. Then, she handed it over with both hands.
The managing elder nodded gently and took the scroll. He opened it and glanced at it before saying indifferently,"There should be thirty-four people, but there are actually thirty-four people. No flaws, very good. You may leave."
Hua Qingqing bowed and left without saying anything.
Then, the managing elder swept his gaze across the people present. Everyone felt as if they were standing naked in the middle of a bustling city and being seen through by others.
"You are all new inner disciples of our sect, and the future of our sect. I hope you all cultivate well in the future. If you perform well, you might be able to enter the legacy one day.。。。。。”The managing elder first encouraged him, then changed the topic.
"Ever since the establishment of the Innate Mystic Venerable, it has been 9,812 years. It has only been developed by the various generations of sect masters and ancestors that we have today's scene. I hope that in the future, when you do things outside and train, you will not lose the dignity of the sect, and you will not kill and do evil.”
"You can't violate the sect's laws, you can't deceive your master and destroy your ancestors, or else the Law Enforcement Hall and the Clan Hall won't show mercy. At that time, even if your cultivation was monstrous, you would not be able to escape the ruling of the clan.。。。。。Alright, that's all for today. I hope you will remember what I said today. It's not a joke. Zhao Mu, distribute the items to them. I'll take my leave first!”
"Yes, Elder." The young disciple on his left bowed and replied.
After the managing elder left, the other disciples in the hall began to distribute sect items to Zhuang Yan and the others.
The first one he got was a disciple token with the holder's name and a serial number written on it. Zhuang Yan's token had the words " There were also two sets of clothes that were the same as the other disciples. They were probably sect uniforms.
Next was a heaven and earth pouch that was three cubic meters in size. It could hold many things, as well as a cultivation technique called Innate Qi. Finally, there was a set of sect rules and codes.
After everyone collected their things, Zhao Mu said a few more words,"Junior Brothers and Sisters, pay attention to the items you received. The token is proof of your identity as a disciple and also records your sect's achievements. The serial number on it represents the courtyard you live in. As for how to check it, you will know after you refine it with your blood.”
"And then there's this cultivation technique. It's one of our sect's Foundation Establishment cultivation techniques. The innate true qi cultivated can be freely converted into other profound cultivation techniques of the sect.”
"Alright, these are the only two. You can study the rest on your own in the future. For now, you can drip your blood to refine the token, then go find a place to live.”
After saying that, he ignored everyone and led the other disciples away.
The remaining rookies looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
Zhuang Yan followed Zhao Mu's instructions and fumbled around with the token. He found an unusual spike on it and pressed down hard. He felt a sharp pain on his fingertip and a drop of blood fell on the token. Then, the token flew up and hung on his waist.
Then, he had a strange feeling that his mind had an inexplicable connection with the token. He knew the function of the token. It recorded his information, cultivation, achievements, map, and other modules.
With this information, he understood what to do next. First, he needed to go to his residence.
Thinking of this, his mind moved, and a map of the path appeared in his sea of consciousness. He could check it at any time, which was very convenient.
Zhuang Yan walked out of the hall according to the map, but he was surprised to see a person standing at the door, blocking the road.
When the person turned around, he realized that it was Hua Qingqing, who had led the way just now.
Seeing Zhuang Yan come out, Hua Qingqing did not waste any time and said,"Follow me, someone wants to see you."
Zhuang Yan didn't understand what he meant and was a little confused. However, after thinking about it, he guessed who it was. Thus, he nodded and said politely,"I'll have to trouble Senior Sister to lead the way again."”
Hua Qingqing looked him up and down a few times. She didn't say anything and walked straight ahead. Zhuang Yan followed without saying a word.
。。。。。。。
After passing through the groups, Zhuang Yan did not know where he was. However, looking at the map on the token, he knew that the core area of the sect was in front of him, which was also where the legacy disciples were located.
According to the sect rules, inner sect disciples were not allowed to enter the core area. However, seeing that Hua Qingqing had no intention of stopping, he did not ask much and just followed. Anyway, whatever happened had nothing to do with him.
As they neared the core area, Hua Qingqing took out a token that was different from the one used by inner sect disciples. This token was even more exquisitely made, and the words "Zhuang Ling" were written on it.
The two of them relied on Zhuang Ling's token to successfully enter the core area. This place was a little different from the place where the inner sect disciples were. It seemed more deserted, probably because there were fewer disciples.
Before Zhuang Yan could admire the scenery in the core area, the two of them arrived in front of a courtyard not long after. There was a plaque on the door that read Purple Bamboo Courtyard.
"This is the place. Let's go in." As she spoke, Hua Qingqing used the token to open the restriction of the Purple Bamboo Yard.
"Hu ~" Zhuang Yan stood at the door and let out a soft sigh. He knew that he was not here because he was outstanding, but because of Zhuang Ling's status in the clan.
This was the first meeting in the sect, so it was better to be cautious.
" Zhi ya." Zhuang Yan gently pushed the door open. He had intended to leave the door open for Hua Qingqing, but when he turned around and saw that she was standing on the right side of the door with no intention of coming in, he turned around and closed the door again.
After entering the courtyard, he saw a medium-sized palace in front of him. The empty space between the palace and the door was designed as a courtyard.
There was a small pond on the right side of the courtyard. The water was clear, and fish could be seen swimming from time to time. There were also a few green lotus leaves floating on it. Behind the pond was a rockery. The strange scenery was very realistic.
On the left side of the courtyard was a willow tree that was not too tall, but it was very lush. There was a swing hanging on the willow tree trunk, and there was a person sitting on the swing, reading a book seriously.
Hearing someone enter, the person on the swing shifted her gaze from the book and turned to look at the door. Her soft black hair slid down her shoulders, revealing a pair of bright eyes and an exquisite face.
"You're here?" Zhuang Ling asked lightly. Her voice was light and warm, like a pearl falling on a jade plate.
Zhuang Yan stepped forward and greeted,"Sister Ling, I haven't seen you for a few years.”
"Hehe, you're still the same. You haven't grown much.”With a light laugh, it was as if the sun was much brighter. After greeting her, Zhuang Ling went straight to the point and continued.
"Zhuang Yan, we haven't seen each other for four years and it can be considered fate that we met again in Xian Tian Sect.”
Zhuang Yan was someone who had been in the underworld since he was seven years old, so he naturally knew what she meant.
He understood that he needed to show his loyalty at this time, so he did not hesitate."Zhuang Yan was able to enter the sect because of Sister Ling.”
Zhuang Ling sized him up carefully. After a while, she nodded subtly."Alright, Zhuang Yan. This is a cultivation technique I came across by chance. It's called the Numinous Sky Manifestation Mantra. It's much better than the cultivation techniques you can get in the inner sect. Today, I'll teach you the Numinous Sky Chapter.”
"If you work hard enough and are lucky enough, this chapter can help you reach Extraordinary. "As for after you transform, I'll teach you the Deity Transformation Chapter. This chapter can help you obtain the Heaven Rank. At that time, even in this world, you can dominate a region.”
Zhuang Ling handed over the book she was holding earlier. Zhuang Yan took it and looked at it. He saw the words "Ling Xiao" written on it.
This was a cultivation technique that could be cultivated to the mortal evolution state, and the second chapter could even obtain the sky rank.
If this kind of cultivation technique was placed in the outside world, it could cause people to kill until their blood flowed like a river.
It had to be known that even in the six great sects, only true disciples could come into contact with a cultivation method that could obtain the Heaven Rank. From this, one could see how precious it was.
"Alright, go back and work hard on your cultivation. Try to forge your meridians as soon as possible. Only then will you truly step onto the path of cultivation. The reason why I'm giving you the cultivation technique now is to give you some desire and motivation.”
"In addition, these are medicinal pills that assist in body refinement. Take them too and complete body refinement as soon as possible. Secondly, the sect's [Innate Qi] was a good method to cultivate.”
Zhuang Ling gave Zhuang Yan two more bottles of pills and explained the functions of the pills.
Zhuang Yan did not reject the gift because he was now Zhuang Ling's follower. If he did not accept it, it would arouse suspicion and be disadvantageous to him.
Therefore, he naturally took these things and bowed to thank them."Thank you, Sister Ling. I will cultivate well and not let down Sister Ling's painstaking efforts.”
"Okay, go!" Zhuang Ling waved her hand and told Zhuang Yan that he could leave.
