Lu Hao is a new pre-selected disciple, and all pre-selected disciples have a transition period, which lasts for half a year, and during half a year, they can be supplied by free resources, or they can enter other cultivation places for cultivation, of course, those who can enter are the lowest.

After half a year, there will be an assessment first, which is the internal assessment of the Sword Alliance, if there is progress within half a year, or even directly condensed into the will of the divine soul and become a venerable, then it can be regarded as a real beginner disciple, otherwise it will continue to be a pre-selected disciple, and it will have to go through a cruel screening.

The so-called screening, one is a challenge from the same sect, among all the pre-selected disciples, everyone can challenge each other, the winner will reward points, the weak will deduct points, some of the strength is relatively weak, then they will suffer some losses, almost every day will be challenged, of course, you can also not fight, not fighting is to admit defeat, points still have to be deducted.

The other is a variety of big competitions and rankings, there are small qualifying competitions every month, big qualifying competitions every quarter, and super qualifying competitions of the five major forces every year, if the results of the qualifying competitions regress every time, and they have been regressing throughout the year, they will be punished accordingly, or reduce resources, or restrict cultivation, or directly eliminate the Five Holy Gates.

But this is all half a year later, Lu Hao can't meet it now, even if he does, he is not afraid, with his current strength, he is not afraid of any pre-selected disciples at all, his goal is only one, that is, to condense the will of the divine soul as soon as possible and become a true venerable.

This half year was the best time for him, and he could use this time to his heart's content to cultivate.

In the first ten days of coming to the Sword Realm, Lu Hao was not in a hurry to devote himself to cultivation, but first looked around, familiarized himself with the environment, and understood the location and function of various resources and secret realms.

In ten days, he also met his first friend in the Sword Realm, a young man who was also from the Eastern Sword Domain, his name was Wang Dong, from Yingzhou in the Eastern Sword Domain, slightly older than Lu Hao, and he was also a cultivator at the peak of the Xuandan Realm, and according to him, his combat power was the strongest and could reach the combat power of the two-star Venerable.

Wang Dong came two months earlier than Lu Hao, so he was relatively familiar with this place, Lu Hao only knew the general situation, and many specific situations and news were told to him by Wang Dong.

"Whether it is our Sword Alliance, or the other four major forces, the division of disciples under the sect is very clear, pre-selected disciples like us are actually not valued by the Sword Alliance at all, only when they become a true Venerable will they be taken a little seriously, and even if they become ordinary Venerables, they are not valued. ”

"For example, the disciples of the one-star Venerable are considered the introductory disciples of the Sword Alliance, but they are only the beginning, and all the cultivation resources are also restricted, the disciples of the two-star Venerable are considered the inner disciples of the Sword Alliance, the disciples of the three-star Venerable are the core disciples of the Sword Alliance, and the disciples of the four-star Venerable are the disciples that the Sword Alliance really values. Wang Dong and Lu Hao said.

"What about the Six-Star Venerable?" Lu Hao said curiously.

"Six-Star Venerable, hehe, how difficult it is to become a six-star Venerable, not to mention that at our age, those who can come to the Sword Realm are all absolute geniuses who are no more than thirty years old, in the entire Sword Realm, there is only one super genius who is against the sky, and he has reached the Six-Star Venerable, he is twenty-eight years old this year, and he is a super genius from the Sword Palace, and the highest other forces are only five-star Venerables, even if they are five-star Venerables, they are extremely rare. Wang Dong said lightly.

"There is only one in the entire sword world?" Lu Hao also exclaimed, it was indeed very difficult to become a six-star venerable, and at the same time, he was very curious about who the young man who became a six-star venerable was.

"But these have nothing to do with us, what we have to do at the moment is to improve ourselves and reach Venerable as soon as possible, otherwise we will always be a pre-selected disciple, and we will never come out, and we will have to go through a cruel ranking. Wang Dong said with a solemn face.

"Let's go, I'll take you to see the ranking jade of the pre-selected disciples. ”

Lu Hao walked with Wang Dong in the area where the pre-selected disciples lived, and soon came to a huge square, there was a huge jade bi in the center of the square, the jade bi was crystal clear and exuded a faint soft light, there were many people watching in front of the jade bi, most of them looked indifferent, and they didn't talk, many people took a look at the jade bi, and then walked away directly, and even a little hostile to each other.

"There's so much competition here, so there's no friends at all, because almost everyone is a competitor, and if you can eliminate one person, then there's a good chance you'll stay. Wang Dong explained a little, and then took Lu Hao to the jade bi.

The jade is rectangular, about nine zhang high and three zhang wide, and is divided into nine rows from top to bottom.

Lu Hao can clearly see that the top row has a serial number, which is from one to one hundred, and below the serial number is a piece of name waist cards, and the second row is one hundred and one hundred from the beginning to the second hundred, and so on, there are a total of nine hundred and ninety-nine serial numbers.

However, the waist card on this is not full, and it is only over when it is 636.

"All the pre-selected disciples of our Sword Alliance are here, and everyone's name is on it, but we are not included for the time being, because we have not yet completed half a year, and after half a year, our name will also be hung up, but it will be hung at the end, if we can't break through the Venerable within this time, we will have to compete with more than six hundred people above, and we must strive for the top, otherwise if we are counted down every time, it is very likely that we will be eliminated. Wang Dong introduced.

"How is the person up here, how strong is it?" Lu Hao said curiously.

"Very strong, those who can come to the Sword Alliance are not ordinary people, at least they have the combat power of a one-star Venerable, there are many two-star Venerable combat power like me, there are also a lot of three-star Venerable combat power, and the combat power of the four-star Venerable is relatively less, but it is not nothing, these geniuses with three-star and four-star Venerable are because the will of the Tianhe Divine Soul is too slow, so they can't set foot in the Venerable Realm for a long time, otherwise they will be three-star and four-star Venerable as soon as they enter the Venerable, and they will definitely be valued by the Sword Alliance, and they will soar in the future. ”

Lu Hao nodded, the Venerable is not divided according to cultivation, but according to the strength of the combat power, if he can break through the Venerable, he should be a four-star Venerable.

However, if he can't break through the Venerable Realm within half a year, he will have to compete with this genius on the jade ranking in order to fight for the right to stay.
