The inner courtyard is set up separately from ordinary students, there is no division between departments, only the level of strength, and what is even more peculiar is that almost all the disciples of the inner courtyard are rarely in office, because they are often sent out to perform tasks.

These tasks are not as Zhou Ling's experience and assessment before he was admitted to the hospital, but the tasks that really represent the martial arts academy.

The place of the inner courtyard is particularly hidden, between the Bodhi Peak and the Guru's Courtyard, because the Bodhi Peak is a strange solitary peak that grows independently from the depths of the mountain stream, so the Inner Courtyard is between the steep mountains and forests behind the Guru's Hospital, where the grass and trees are deep, the fog locks the clouds and sinks, if there is no one to lead the way, it will not be easily found.

There is no special martial arts training ground here, and the buildings built are all the residences of the disciples except for the main hall in the center, and the difference between the four people living in the academy is that because the number of people is small, it is basically a separate room for each person. The cultivation of the disciples in the inner courtyard basically relied on their own cultivation or outside to perform tasks and experience, so they usually lived here for very little time.

Across the cliff from the inner courtyard is the Red Cloud Golden Peak, the highest peak of Fanjing Mountain, standing on the side of the inner courtyard residence, you can only look up, and there is a mountain stream that I don't know how deep it is, and the strength of the disciples in the inner courtyard will not be able to reach the Nine Spirit Cave and the Red Cloud Golden Peak, which is also a problem that the Mentor Academy will not worry about.

On this day, the four mentors led the eight disciples to the inner courtyard hall, and all of them stood respectfully and solemnly, waiting for the arrival of the five elders.

Suddenly, I saw five streams of light flying out of the Nine Spirit Cave, and instantly appeared in the air in front of everyone.

The five elders were all dressed in white, and each of them was an old antique who had lived for hundreds of years and nearly a thousand years, but the slight fluctuations of the Force between their gestures made everyone in the hall feel a strong sense of oppression.

"Welcome to the Five Elders!"

With surging excitement, Zhou Ling and everyone bowed respectfully to the five people in mid-air.

These five people are the five elders Xuanguang, Sikong Yi, Cangyang, Dongfang Xiang, and Ziqi, the absolute pinnacle existence of this continent.

"Bing Lan, is this the inner court disciple you selected?" Xuan Guang was in the middle of the five people, looking at Bing Lan condescendingly and asked.

"Yes, according to the instructions of the elders, we have selected two of the old students and the new students, plus four martial arts disciples, a total of eight people have all gathered here. Binglan said truthfully.

Just as Bing Lan was reporting to Xuan Guang, Zhou Ling felt a sharp gaze sweep over his body, and at that moment, he felt as if everything he had had been seen through.

"Well, the overall quality is not bad!"

After glancing at the eight disciples, Xuan Guang affirmed the selection work of the Mentor Academy, and Zhou Ling seemed to be relieved when he saw Tutor Binglan's face.

"Dolls, first of all, congratulations on your honor to be selected to join the ranks of the disciples of the inner court, this is the first step for you to realize the transformation from a student to a disciple, and it also shows that you are the best in the student group, but the path of martial arts cultivation is not the strongest, only stronger! After entering the inner court, it will open up a broader world for you, no matter which elder you will be taught from, you must cherish the opportunity to cultivate seriously, and one day you will become us, or even surpass us. ”

Xuan Guang's voice was like a bell ringing to curb the clouds, and the extremely penetrating voice made everyone's blood gush when they heard it, and a wave of blood and pride rose from the bottom of their hearts.

Zhou Ling looked up at the column of elders who existed like dazzling stars, and his heart was also full of pride, and he couldn't help muttering to himself.

"We, after all, will be you!"

"Please all eight disciples raise their heads!"

Xuan Guang's voice sounded like a thunderbolt, and all the personnel suddenly raised their heads after being shocked in their hearts.

"The names of master and apprentice are all fate! Now it's your turn to choose. ”

According to the rules that Mentor Binglan told them before he came, all the disciples of the inner court have the right to choose an elder as their master, and because of this, he is very entangled, he has the guidance of the mysterious Qingge who can be called Wuzun, and more importantly, in order to keep this secret, if he chooses the elder as his master, he may expose the matter of Qingge one day.

"That freshman, you haven't decided yet, right?"

Just when Zhou Ling hesitated, Xuan Guang seemed to see his thoughts, and then stared at him and said.

It turned out that once several new disciples liked a certain elder, the elders sensed it and knew who had chosen them, but Zhou Ling was the only one who stood and wavered and never made a clear choice.

However, Xuan Guang's words didn't seem to make Zhou Ling make a choice, he was still immersed in thinking about countermeasures, and completely ignored Xuan Guang's meaning.

This made the people around him pinch a cold sweat for him! It made the elder angry, and it was estimated that Zhou Ling, a disciple of the inner courtyard, would not be able to do it.

"Zhou Ling, what's your situation?"

Luo Tianyi, who was standing beside him, pinched Zhou Ling's back fiercely, which finally pulled him out of his contemplation in an instant, and he looked up at Elder Xuan Guang and said something that everyone did not expect.

"Elder, can I not choose?"

"Zhou Ling, are you crazy?" Bing Lan looked at Zhou Ling with an incredulous face and said, no one would easily give up the place of disciple of the inner courtyard that they had so hard to obtain.

"Zhou Ling, what's wrong with you today? Mo Qian turned his head and reminded him.

"Don't be stupid, we'll just come in so easily. Luo Tianyi also said anxiously for Zhou Ling.

Xuan Guang looked at the strange boy with interest, he was waiting for his final answer.

"Boy, give you a chance to choose for yourself, either choose an elder, or you will quit the inner courtyard!"

Xuan Guang gave Zhou Ling an ultimatum, and there was no doubt in his words.

"Elder, I know how offended the kid is today, but I don't like to tell lies, if I have the chance, I just hope to go to the Red Cloud Golden Dome to have a look!" Zhou Ling apologized and said what was in his heart.

"Oh, that's interesting!"

The five elders couldn't help but be amused by Zhou Ling's words, this young man was indeed a little different.

However, what Zhou Ling said made Bing Lan and the other four mentors raise their throats, Hongyun Jinding Rao is that they have not been to it a few times, it can be regarded as a forbidden place in the forbidden land of the academy, this Zhou Ling actually said that he wanted to go up and take a look, if he provoked a few elders, it would be troublesome.

In addition to Mo Qian and Luo Tianyi, several other disciples felt that Zhou Ling was simply digging his own grave, and he began to make a lot of nonsense before he had chosen an elder, and nine times out of ten he would cancel his qualification as a disciple of the inner court, or even be expelled from the academy.

"Little doll, what do you want to do when you go to the Red Cloud Golden Peak?" Elder Cangyang really lost his sleepiness when he encountered Zhou Ling's request, and he asked Zhou Ling.

"Elder, the Red Cloud Golden Dome is the place where the Hongduan Ancestor broke his soul and became a home, I want to go there to truly feel his mind and spirit, maybe it will bring a different understanding to my cultivation. ”

"Haha!"

After Zhou Ling finished speaking, except for Xuan Guang and Cangyang, the other three immediately burst into laughter.

"Hongduan Ancestor is in the realm of martial spirits to be able to break the soul and become a supreme, just because you are a one-star martial artist now, do you also want to achieve a martial suste?" Zi Qi said.

"I don't think this baby has any mental problems, and it's not suitable for continuing to cultivate. Dongfang Xiang shook his head at Xuan Guang and said.

But Zhou Ling's words made Cangyang's eyes suddenly light up, and he seemed to vaguely remember that when he traveled to the mainland with Hongduan Ancestor, Hongduan Patriarch once said that he must find a place where he can show his mind and courage, and this place will definitely allow him to break through the shackles of martial spirits and achieve the realm of martial arts.

This young man actually had the same ambitions and ambitions, the difference was that at that time, Hongduan was already in the martial spirit realm, while Zhou Ling had just stepped into the martial arts realm.

"Cangyang, what do you think?" Xuan Guang asked him when he saw Cangyang looking at Zhou Ling as if he was thoughtful.

"This young man, I'm a little interested! I wonder if Senior Brother can let me be the master?" Cangyang looked at Xuan Guang and said.

Xuan Guang and Cangyang looked at each other for a moment, and Xuan Guang nodded slightly.

With Xuan Guang's approval, Cangyang's gaze turned to Zhou Ling and said.

"Little doll, you can choose me, I will give you the opportunity to go to the Red Cloud Golden Dome to have a look, otherwise you will have to leave the inner courtyard!"

"Of course I do!"

After listening to Cangyang's words, Zhou Ling responded without thinking.
