Chapter 10 Admissions
After a few days, Lin Xiaomeng found that the Lin family suddenly became lively, there were always people gathered around in twos and threes and excitedly discussing something, Lin Xiaomeng had been practicing in the room and had not gone out, Lin Zhifeng originally wanted to tell her, but when he walked to her door several times, he found that she was cultivating and it was not good to disturb her, so he never had a chance to say it. Lin Xiaomeng didn't know what was going on.
In the evening, Lin Xiaomeng wanted to pick up Lin Xiaofan from school and just asked what was going on.
When I walked to the door of the clan school, I saw Lin Yan walking out with Lin Xiaofan in tow. Lin Xiaomeng stepped forward and took Lin Xiaofan's hand and asked, "Did something happen?" Everyone seemed excited. ”
"You don't know yet? I've heard that in a few days, all the big and small sects in our Southern Heaven Domain will come out to recruit disciples. Lin Yan replied.
"Isn't that weird?" Lin Xiaomeng asked puzzled.
"It's not surprising. It's no wonder that these sects rarely recruit disciples. Generally, small sects only recruit once in three or five years, and large sects only recruit once in ten or twenty years, but this time I don't know why all of them announced that they would recruit new disciples, do you think it's strange? Lin Yan explained.
"Oh? That's a bit weird, isn't something big going to happen? Lin Xiaomeng nodded.
"I don't know, I don't think even the head of the family may know." Lin Yan shook his head, "Only the sect masters of those sects know." In any case, it is a good opportunity for the major sects to recruit disciples this time, and we all have the opportunity to become disciples of the major sects. ”
"Well, it's a good opportunity." Lin Xiaomeng nodded, "When will it start?" ”
"A month later." Lin Yan replied.
"Oh. Then we'll have to prepare. We'll go together! Lin Xiaomeng was also excited.
"Good!" Lin Yan nodded.
*
A month later, an unprecedented gathering of disciples was held in the Quanxin Martial Arts Field, the largest martial arts competition in Yinzhou County.
There are a total of ten rings in the Quanxin martial arts arena, which are occupied by ten sects. The largest of them was occupied by the Xuanying Sect, the largest sect in Yinzhou County.
Of course, there are more than these ten sects in Yinzhou County, and there are countless other small sects, but because the sects are too small and the number of people is too small, they are not qualified to be in the ring, so they can only find their own positions under the stage.
When Lin Xiaomeng and Lin Yan arrived at the Quanxin martial arts arena, there were already countless people standing under the ring of the ten sects, and there were crowds of people, crowded, and even more lively than rushing to the market. In particular, the number of people in the ring of the Xuanying Sect is several times that of other sects.
Everyone takes it for granted that a big sect is better than a small sect, and that it has resources and advantages, even if it is a famous disciple or a disciple of an outer sect, it will have face.
But Lin Xiaomeng didn't think so, he would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail, although there are many resources in the big sects, but if they can't be used, what is the use of being a registered disciple and an outer disciple? When will you get out of it? Even if you have no talent, if you are accidentally killed by someone in the outer gate, it is not worth the loss, it is better to stand on the top in the smaller sect at the beginning, if there are some adventures, it will not be worse than the people of the big sect.
In each ring were the elders sent by each sect to recruit disciples this time, and each sect had two or three people. There are also disciples below who help register and maintain order. Each sect has its own spiritual root test stone, and the spiritual root must be tested on the spot in order to select disciples, and those who do not meet the requirements will not be used.
Each sect charges a fee for a low-grade spirit stone for anyone who comes to sign up for the test. Although there are not many low-grade spirit stones, there are more people to report, and the income is still very considerable. But for those children who are not from a good family, a low-grade spirit stone is also very expensive, ordinary people use silver taels to buy things, and cultivators only use spirit stones to buy elixir elixirs, and spirit stones are much more precious than silver taels. A spirit stone also has to be exchanged for a lot of silver taels. However, if you can successfully enter the sect, even if it is a small sect, the price of a spirit stone is worth it.
Looking at this lively scene, Lin Xiaomeng couldn't help but sigh, this is really like a workplace job fair in his previous life. I think I have participated in several such job fairs back then, and I have a lot of resumes, and some talent markets also have to collect field fees, and every time I squeeze into a stinky sweat, I don't have a company willing to use myself. I didn't expect to go through it again in this life, but this time it was not recruitment, but recruitment.
After turning around, Lin Xiaomeng found that the faces of the people of the Xuanying Sect were all arrogant, their nostrils were facing the sky, and they looked invincible, and even the disciples who were sitting down and were responsible for the registration fee were arrogant, as if it was a glorious thing to be able to register for a name in him. Moreover, the Xuanying Sect also declared that if once the Xuanying Sect has tested and agreed to accept it as a disciple, whether it is an outer disciple or a registered disciple, he will not be allowed to participate in the test of another sect, otherwise he will be removed from the list once it is verified.
Moreover, they also said that this time only registered disciples and outer disciples will be accepted, and only those who have successfully passed the assessment in the sect can become inner disciples, and if they are favored by the elders in the sect or the masters of each peak, they can become personal disciples.
Lin Xiaomeng frowned, this is too domineering, you can choose two-way when looking for a job, if you submit multiple resumes and receive an offer, you can go to whichever one is suitable, and you can't go to another if you are hired. Of course, this is a bit different from looking for a job, and you can't just change jobs, but this attitude is unpleasant.
Like the Xuanwu Sect next door, there is no such rule, the person in charge said, you can test in any one, if you try it, if everyone wants you, you can choose the one you like to join, it doesn't matter if you don't choose Xuanwu Sect, it means that there is no fate.
I heard that this Xuanwu Sect and the Xuanying Sect were originally one family thousands of years ago, and then for some reason they were divided into two factions, and the ancestors of the Xuanwu Sect took some people to separate. After thousands of years, the Xuanwu Sect has also become a big sect, although it is not as big as the Xuanying Sect, but it is also far ahead among the major sects.
After a while, Lin Zhifeng also came with Lin Xiaofan. Lin Xiaomeng told them the general situation, and also told them about the Xuanying Sect, she felt that although the Xuanying Sect was big, it was not necessarily the best, so let Lin Xiaofan go to the Xuanwu Sect to try it first.
Lin Zhifeng nodded, he has been kind to others all his life, never quarreled with others, and the two children are also honest and kind, he is worried that Lin Xiaofan will suffer in Xuanying Sect. The child is still so young, and the family is not around, what if there are three longs and two shorts?
Lin Zhifeng listened to Lin Xiaomeng's advice, took Lin Xiaofan to Xuanwu Sect to report first, took the jade slip with the number plate engraved, and then stood under the ring and waited for the number to be called, and then went on stage to test.
After a morning, it was almost noon before Lin Xiaofan's turn. Lin Zhifeng took Lin Xiaofan to the ring, and took him to salute respectfully to the people on the stage, while Lin Xiaomeng stood under the stage and watched.
There were three people sitting in the ring, among which sitting in the middle was a kind old man, he looked at Lin Xiaofan with a smile, and saw that this child was very cute, so he asked with a smile, "What's your name?" ”
"My name is Lin Xiaofan." Lin Xiaofan didn't have a trace of fear.
The old man nodded with satisfaction, "Have you started practicing?" He asked.
"Here we go. I just practiced the channeling technique, and I already had a little sense of qi yesterday. Lin Xiaofan replied angrily.
"Oh? Do you know what kind of spiritual root you are? When the old man heard him say, he already had a sense of qi and became interested in him.
"I don't know." Lin Xiaofan shook his head.
"How could you not know?" The old man asked strangely, since he had already started refining the channeling technique, he must have tested the spiritual root, how could he not know?
"The second grandfather said that I was a mutant spirit root, and the test column at home couldn't detect it." Lin Xiaofan replied honestly.
"Oh? Mutant Spirit Root? The old man's eyes lit up, and he asked Lin Zhifeng on the side, "Dare to ask which family you are?" ”
"Down here is Lin Zhifeng, the second eldest of the Lin family, this is a child." Lin Zhifeng bowed and replied.
"It turned out to be the Lin family." The old man nodded, "Then let's test it." ”
The old man beckoned Lin Xiaofan to come closer, and then took out a test stone, this test stone was different from the Lin family's test pillar, it was just a stone plate the size of a sea bowl, and there were nine petal-like protrusions around the stone plate, and the whole stone plate looked like a blooming lotus flower.
"Put your hand on this." The old man pointed to the middle of the stone plate, and Lin Xiaofan pressed his little fat hand on it.
